Chapter 493: Pick Her Up Sideways

"Sorry, Weiwei, I'll find you a suitable resource again."

The evening had been a roller coaster of emotions, too much for Rong Weiwei to keep her feelings in check. She stepped back to avoid him, "You said you would help me secure this role."

He had said so! But he hadn't anticipated Li Shengxiao would come out of nowhere, nor did he expect Rong Yan to somehow climb up to Li Shengxiao. Now, it was clear that the Mayor of Lin City didn't want to give him face. Was he supposed to shamelessly pester him? Shi Mufeng's lips tightened with displeasure, "Weiwei, I didn't want this either. But things have turned out this way. You saw, I just tried to speak up for you. But if Mr. Ye doesn't want to give in, there's nothing I can do."

They were still at the banquet, surrounded by so many onlookers; their every move was under scrutiny. Hence, their argument was also very restrained.
