Chapter 227: Chapter 227: Scheming

"Mr. Xu, this is the new actress at our company, she doesn’t know any better. If you don’t like her, the company will immediately terminate her contract." Pushing the person away, Liu Binglin immediately explained to Xu Ke.

"I don’t want this to happen a second time." Xu Ke glanced coldly at the departing figure and said.

Xu Ke spent the whole morning at Star Entertainment and saw Liao Yanyan again when he went to the garage to get his car at noon.

"Mr. Xu, what a coincidence, are you going out too? Can you give me a ride? My tire suddenly burst, and I can’t drive." Liao Yanyan showed a troubled expression and pointed to the red Bentley parked next to Xu Ke’s spot, looking pitiful as she spoke.

"Running into each other once in a day is coincidental, twice is coincidental, but a third time is not, right? Just say it, what do you want from me?" Xu Ke glanced at her car, leaned against the car door with his arms crossed, and looked at Liao Yanyan on the opposite side coldly.

Upon hearing Xu Ke’s words, Liao Yanyan’s expression stiffened, but she quickly adjusted, looking at Xu Ke with a shy and timid gaze, "Don’t misunderstand, I don’t have any bad intentions. The reason I created so many chance encounters today is because I like you. From the moment I first saw you at the party, I couldn’t help but start to notice you and like you. I hope to be close to you, even more, I hope to become your woman." She stepped forward, closing the gap between them as she spoke.

"Since you’ve started noticing me, you should know that I’m already married." Xu Ke brushed away her hand that was trying to touch his face and spoke with a slight frown.

"I know you’re married, but I have no intention of ruining your marriage. I just want to stay by your side, even without a name, I am willing. As long as I can be beside you, seeing you makes me very happy. I won’t compete with her or take anything away, just let me stay by your side as your woman, okay?" Liao Yanyan said, looking at Xu Ke with a fascinated gaze.

"Ha, do you think I look like a huge trash can?" Xu Ke mocked, pushing Liao Yanyan away from in front of him.

"What?" Liao Yanyan asked, somewhat dumbfounded.

"Did I say something wrong? Or do you think I’m a fool who doesn’t know what you’ve been up to? You think I would fancy a mistress kept by others?" Xu Ke sneered coldly, "In my life, I hate it when others touch my things the most, not to mention, you have no idea how many people have touched you. In my eyes, you are like trash, reeking of a foul odor, and I have no habit of collecting garbage.

Ignoring Liao Yanyan’s eyes widening or her face growing paler, Xu Ke continued, "If you still want to stay at Star Entertainment, don’t come around me too much. Your presence pollutes the air around."

"You, how can you say that about me? Do you think I wanted this willingly? If it wasn’t out of desperation, who would want to degrade themselves like this? I’m just a newcomer with no background and no connections. Besides this face, I have nothing. If they want to force me, what can I do to resist? I can only accept passively." Tears welled up in Liao Yanyan’s eyes.

"Life has been harsh on me since I was a child. When I entered the entertainment industry, I just wanted to make a name for myself. I came into this world innocent and pure, and I hoped to leave it the same way, but this world doesn’t allow it. Tell me, what can I do? What can a weak woman like me do? I thought you were different from those other men, I thought you could see my goodness, but it turns out you’re just like those stinking men." Liao Yanyan shouted loudly.

Her sharp voice echoed endlessly in the empty parking lot, like a banshee wailing, eerie and tragic.

Xu Ke frowned, watching this woman’s monologue in front of his car, without showing the slightest bit of emotion.

"Are you done talking? If so, get out from in front of my car. I have things to do and no time to waste on you." Xu Ke said coldly.

Xu Ke’s icy demeanor choked Liao Yanyan’s ensuing words in her throat, leaving her feeling momentarily like a clown.

"How can you be so cold-blooded? After all I’ve said, are you really not moved at all?" Liao Yanyan murmured incredulously.

"Why should I have any sympathy for a liar? Your acting is decent, but it’s still lacking in front of me. I’ll say it one last time, get out from in front of my car, or you’ll receive a termination notice tomorrow." Xu Ke glanced at the time, showing little patience as he spoke.

Liao Yanyan bit her lower lip, revealing ambition in her eyes, "Believe it or not, what I just said came from the bottom of my heart, it’s all sincere. Sooner or later, you’ll see my sincerity."

Liao Yanyan ran away from the car, bumping into Xu Ke, and covering her face, she gave Xu Ke a view of her back, appearing extremely heartbroken.

Xu Ke smirked, the corners of his mouth curling into a mocking arc, opened the car door, got in, and drove away.

In a dark corner of the parking lot, a man wearing a baseball cap emerged, glanced in the direction Xu Ke left, and then looked greedily at his camera, as if gazing at his beloved beauty.

"Did you take all the photos I just asked for?" Liao Yanyan, who had already left, returned and stood in front of the man in the baseball cap, looking impatient as she spoke.

"Got them, all the photos are here." The man, likely an old partner of Liao Yanyan, handed the camera to her without any reservations, letting her see the photos he had taken.

The man’s candid photography skills were excellent, his angles quite tricky, and more importantly, the photos were clear. Among those, many looked unusually intimate. If Liao Yanyan wasn’t one of the subjects, one might even believe the two people depicted had an unspeakable intimate relationship.

Liao Yanyan nodded in satisfaction, took out her phone, and transferred two hundred thousand to the man, "I’m very satisfied with these photos. I’ve sent the money; send me an electronic copy of these photos and print out a set to send to the Lin Company."

"Alright." The man grinned, looking at the bank message that had just been sent.

Meanwhile, as Xu Ke drove away from the parking lot, he reached into the pocket on the side where he had been bumped and pulled out a women’s earring.

The moon-shaped earring was adorned with many tiny diamonds, making Xu Ke chuckle coldly as he reached his hand out of the car window and tossed the earring away.
