Yang Su’s jaw dropped.

“Master, there is simply no comparison between Miss Shanshan and Xia Weibao.”

Lu Hualiang’s face suddenly hardened.

The temperature in the study room dropped sharply, as though there were thousands of miles of ice and snow in the room.

Yang Su was so scared by this sudden drop in temperature and pressure that he broke out in cold sweat. Knowing that he had stepped on a minefield, his legs trembled in fear.

“I’m saying that Miss Shanshan is hardworking and diligent. She’s a good role model within the entertainment industry. How can Xia Weibao compare with her?”

Only after this, Lu Hualiang’s face expression lightened.

Feeling relieved of the heavy weight on his shoulders, Yang Su finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It was only then that he realised that his back was already covered in sweat.

How could he have forgotten that his master was just pure evil by nature?

He was certainly not one to be trifled with.

“How’s Shanshan lately?”

The thought of that certain figure made his anger disappear and his heart melt.

“Miss Shanshan is making great progress. She recently even accepted a web-drama as the second lead!”

“She refused when I wanted to invest heavily in a film for her. Why did she accept this web-drama? And only as a second lead?”

His words expressed that he hated the idea, but he gave his true feelings away. “Which web-drama?”

Yang Su paused. “It’s… the second lead of ‘Fallen City’.”

With that, he looked sympathetically at Lu Hualiang.

Master, you should pray for yourself.

What Miss Shanshan hates the most is beautiful women. Your wife is like a fairy. If they fight…

And the backyard catches fire, let’s see who you’ll protect. He thought to himself.

Lu Hualiang massaged his temples. Clearly, he had thought of that too. It was giving him a headache.

Yang Su thought that as his master’s good special assistant, he had better give some advice quickly.

“Master, why don’t you ask Miss Shanshan and Madam to have a meal together so that they can get to know each other?”

Lu Hualiang’s headache intensified. She did not even want to see him, much less Xia Weibao!

She had been hiding from him for half a year now.

“Master, I have a suggestion. You said that Xia Weibao’s medical skills are amazing. Miss Shanshan’s and Madam’s illness…”

Lu Hualiang’s face became sombre and he knitted his brows together.

Xia Weibao…

He had to admit that he wanted to ask Xia Weibao to treat Shanshan the moment he saw that Xia Weibao had managed to treat her own wounds.

It was just that…

“We’ll have to take this slowly.”

Xia Weibao was too bizarre. He had to continue observing her for a period of time.

Besides, even if she knew how to treat burns, it did not mean that she knew how to treat other illnesses. What if it was just a coincidence that she happened to know the prescription for burns?

And Shanshan’s illness…

He had searched across the whole world, but there was no one who could cure her.

It was not that he had not brought her to see traditional chinese medicine doctors, it was just that they were ineffective.

Not only Shanshan, there was also…

Just the thought of it made Lu Hualiang’s heartache.

He was full of guilt and shame.

“That’s right! Does the entertainment industry’s beauty pageant start next month?”

He did not care for the entertainment industry, but all the important people were there, so he had to pay attention to it.

“That’s right.” Yang Su’s eyes twitched and he had a premonition.

“Put Shanshan’s name up for it.”

Yang Su: “…”

This was by far the most arduous and soul-crushing task that he had done. It was much worse than lying to your own conscience by saying that you were a good-tempered and kind-hearted person!
