Chapter 445: Can You Afford It?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

This was a dilemma. Sometimes, Wang Ming thought that he should not be Xia Wei’s manager but her ‘father’!

Otherwise, why would he hold a salary and worry about two completely different things?

He was afraid that Xia Wei’s acting career would not progress smoothly, but he was also afraid that Xia Wei and Jian Tan’s relationship would not last long. If this was not her ‘father’, what was he?

Xia Wei did not understand Wang Ming’s thoughts. She did not think too much about what happened just now. After chatting with Wang Ming for a while, she stood up and left with Jian Tan.

She still had to go for a checkup on the wound on her feet today. It was almost time for her stitches to be removed.

With Lin Yi and Jian Tan’s two assistants accompanying her, Xia Wei naturally did not have to worry about running errands in the hospital. She only had to stay by Jian Tan’s side obediently.

As Xia Wei’s follow-up was just a spur of the moment and she had not made an appointment with a doctor in advance, there was really no suitable doctor at this moment. Huo Feng did not seem to be in the hospital now, so they could only wait for a while.

Jian Tan did not care if Dr. Huo was resting. Taking advantage of the time when Xia Wei was talking to Lin Yi, he made a call and asked him to come to the hospital without a word. Then, he hung up the phone with a bang, not caring if the other party would be frightened to death by his call!

Just as Young Master Huo rushed to the hospital, Xia Wei and Jian Tan also met someone they did not want to see again.

“Why are you here? Are you following us?”

Seeing that the few of them exchanged looks of dismay but did not speak, Lin Yi mustered his courage and stood in front of Xia Wei, staring at Jiang Xiao and the others in front of them.

As if he did not expect that the first person to speak would be a small female assistant, Jiang Xiao’s gaze, which had been staring at Xia Wei, slowly landed on Lin Yi’s face. He sneered and started to speak, not to answer Lin Yi’s question!

“Our fate is really entwined. I didn’t expect you to be the first person I saw when I just returned to City A, Xia Wei! Coincidentally, you were also the person I wanted to see. The heavens are so good to me, but it would be even better if there wasn’t that annoying person beside you.”

Xia Wei did not think that there was anything good about bumping into Jiang Xiao, the god of plague, in the hospital. She only thought that today was really unlucky.

She really couldn’t be bothered to waste her breath on Jiang Xiao. She didn’t even look up and said coldly, “In my opinion, you’re the one who’s an eyesore. Either you disappear from my sight immediately, or I’ll get Jian Tan to make you disappear from my sight. Choose one of the two!”

Xia Wei was as stubborn as ever. Jiang Xiao almost felt that he was used to being scolded and abused, but he was still unhappy.

He stared at Xia Wei with an ugly expression. After taking a few deep breaths without batting an eyelid, he retorted, “Do you think I’m really afraid of Jian Tan? If you force me, let’s fight to the death…”

Jian Tan took a step forward and cut off the other party’s gaze on Xia Wei. He lowered his eyes and warned Jiang Xiao coldly, “Don’t you know that it’s hard for you to fight to the death?”

Seeing that Jiang Xiao had stopped talking, Jian Tan sneered and continued, “How have you been in City T these past few days? I didn’t expect your Jiang Family to bail you out so quickly. I thought that I wouldn’t see you again for the time being. I didn’t expect that.”

As if Jian Tan’s words had hit the sore spot in his heart, Jiang Xiao was instantly furious. He took a big step forward with a terrifying expression and confronted Jian Tan directly. “Jian Tan! Do you think I’m really that afraid of you?”

“Don’t be so smug. My Jiang Family isn’t something your Jian Family can play with at will. If you really force me, just wait and see! Although I can’t do anything to you, I have a way to make you suffer. You can try!”

As Jiang Xiao spoke, a trace of red flashed across his eyes, making him look like a bloodthirsty Asura from hell.

“I dare you!”

Jian Tan did not give in at all. He hated being threatened like this the most in his life, not to mention that Jiang Xiao had already threatened Xia Wei.. This was challenging his last bottom line!
