8 There Must Be Something Wrong With You

The door suddenly swung open, shocking her into stumbling a few steps backward.

"Oh! I'm sorry, did I startle you?" Xia Minghua's slender fingers gripped her arm, stabilizing her.

"Ah no, it's fine." She briefly grabbed his shirt before standing up straight.

"Oh I'm sorry, am I blocking your way?"

"I'm just checking that you're still alive. Are you finished?"

This whole time, his hands had not left her arm. He naturally led her back inside.

Coincidentally, their seats were right next to each other.

Zhou Lengxin felt another stab of pain on her foot.

Chen Xiaoxiao was smirking at her and wiggling her eyebrows to which she just turned around and ignored.

Most of the noise was coming from Wu Zhiting and Wei Lina, cracking jokes and telling stories. Looks like that these two groups assimilated quite easily.

"Don't drink anymore." His hand was placed on top of hers as she reached for her glass.

She looked up. This Senior Xia was showing an abnormal amount of attention to her, didn't his friend say he was traumatized to the point where he avoided girls?

"I'm fine." She coolly brushed him off, after all, she'd been in this kind of situation several times. Zhou Lengxin tactfully excused herself under the pretense that the phone call was an urgent situation and left first.

. . .

"Xinxin, tell me, how long has this been going on?"

Back in the dorm, the interrogation began.

"What are you talking about?"

"Don't play dumb! There's clearly something going on between you and Senior Xia!" Chen Xiaoxiao accused by jabbing her finger in Lengxin's face.

"I've only seen him about the same times as you guys. I don't really know him."

There was lots of gossip surrounding Xia Minghua, but he definitely hasn't had a girlfriend, so why did he act so familiar with her? The senior in the rumors was described as unobtainable and could only be admired from afar. There were plenty of girls who would like to get close to him, so what made her any different?

"Stop pretending, Senior only talked to you the whole time! When you left, he kept looking at your empty seat and appeared very dejected! What have you done to our perfect Senior Xia?"

"How would I know? All I've done is exist." She would also like to know.

"Lengxin, if Senior confesses to you, would you accept him?"

"Probably not."

"Huh? Why?"

"I don't have any particular liking towards this senior."

"Really, there must be something wrong with you. For real."

Well, it wasn't the first time she's disappointed them. Like when she said, "Fame is annoying."

With her talent, she had been scouted by many companies to be an idol. But Lengxin chose to remain anonymous as Artemis and do her own thing. Her exclusive contract with X-Nation allowed her to be an artist under them and release music, as well as work as a producer. The conditions offered by X-Nation Entertainment had been too tempting, it gave her so much creative freedom and resources that she couldn't refuse.

Zhou Lengxin had built up a reputation over the course of five years in the entertainment industry as an artist and mentor, seeing the rise and fall of new and old stars. Only recently did she begin delving into the film industry.

'Producer He, maybe you thought you were doing me a favor, but I am an inexperienced person who does not have the patience to teach someone else inexperienced. I am a busy person!!'
