Chapter 317: Femme Fatale (2)

"Who said that, stand up now!" Unexpectedly, the comment hit a sore spot for Qin Zhimei, which immediately enraged her.

On stage, Lu Weixi remained calm. She anticipated this sort of speculation and doubt since she landed the project. But she was not afraid. She stood her ground proudly, having earned the project through her own abilities. Why should she back down or tolerate people's scrutiny?

However, her calm demeanor faltered when her gaze landed on Bai Changyou, sitting upright in the audience.

In her lingering gaze, Bai Changyou just subtly shook his head. No words were spoken, yet a sigh hung in the air.

His expression seemingly read: So that's all she amounts to.

Suddenly, a thin sneer lifted at the corners of Lu Weixi's mouth. Just as Qin Zhiyou, standing beside her, was about to say something, she shrugged him off and walked directly to where the ribbons were to be cut, picking up the scissors.

The tip of the scissors was provocatively aimed at Bai Changyou.
