280 Chapter 280. Ruthless
Fashion brands value their spokesperson’s resume and temperament very much. Ding Shan had previously been scammed by the Ding family and acted in many bad movies. In the eyes of those top luxury brands, it was naturally a severe stain. No matter how famous Ding Shan was and how good her looks and temperament were, it was difficult for them to consider working with her.
Therefore, celebrities also had to cherish their reputation. For some celebrities who had signed multiple big brands as endorsements, once there was a serious scandal, the endorsement cooperation was immediately suspended, and they would never have the chance to win the favor of the brand in the future.
Fortunately, although Ding Shan had acted in some lousy films, she had not been involved in any scandals. As long as she slowly accumulated representative work, she would still have the opportunity to discuss cooperation with big brands in the future.
Ding Shan was about to go back with Li Yang when they walked to the corner of the corridor and saw a person standing in the shadows.
Under the dim light, Ding Shan could feel that person’s gaze on her. She couldn’t help but stop in her tracks. Then, she saw the man walk out from the shadows, his bright obsidian-like eyes staring straight at her. The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and he called out, “Teacher Ding.”
Li Yang quickly recognized that the man in front of them was Mysterious X. It seemed like he was waiting for Ding Shan.
“It seems your team member has something to discuss with you.” Li Yang said to Ding Shan. “I won’t disturb you then. You guys can continue chatting.”
After Li Yang left, Ding Shan looked at Xiang Hong suspiciously. Just as she was about to say something, Xiang Hong pushed open the empty room door and said to Ding Shan, “It’s windy outside. Ms. Ding, come in and talk.”
When she saw Xiang Hong enter the room, Ding Shan looked left and right. She hesitated for a moment, then followed him in. However, she did not close the door when she entered. Instead, she left a small gap.
Seeing that Ding Shan’s vigilance was relatively high, Xiang Hong was instantly satisfied.
It’s good to be alert; it’s not easy to be stolen by others.
Ding Shan saw that Xiang Hong didn’t say anything and remembered that she had initially planned to look for him, so she directly said, “Where did you go today? Although your identity is special, you’re still my team member. You didn’t train with the others all day, so the other team members are suspicious. In addition, I don’t know much about your strength, so I wanted to find some time to talk to you …”
Ding Shan spoke in a rather severe tone when her vision suddenly darkened. Xiang Hong had walked up to her.
The sudden approach of the man made Ding Shan take a step back in alarm.
“Is Teacher Ding trying to understand me?” The man’s voice was low and magnetic as if it had a little hook. Ding Shan looked up and could see the pair of deep eyes.
That familiar feeling appeared again. The closer this man was to her, the stronger that feeling became.
Ding Shan was perplexed. She tried her best to recall, but she still couldn’t remember seeing this man’s face.
It was reasonable to say that she would never forget such an extremely handsome face, but she had no impression.
When Ding Shan’s gaze landed on Xiang Hong’s face, he saw that she looked a little nervous. For a moment, he thought that she had remembered. However, when he saw the confusion in Ding Shan’s eyes, he immediately understood that she had not thought of him at all.
As expected, women were heartless. After a night of passion, they could not remember anything.
Ding Shan didn’t understand why the man in front of her suddenly revealed a trace of resentment and dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Hell! It was as if she had done something wrong to him. Please, why was he looking at her like that? She didn’t even know him before!
“You’re my team member. Of course, I have to understand your situation. That way, I’ll know how to help you.” Ding Shan suppressed the complicated thoughts in her heart and said in a severe tone.
“Help me? How can you help?” As if he had heard something funny, Xiang Hong laughed.
He usually looked cold and distant to everyone, but when he smiled, the contrast was extreme, like the spring wind melting the ice and snow.
Ding Shan was mesmerized by the man’s two-second smile before she returned to her senses. She looked to the left and tried not to look at Xiang Hong. “I can only help you by understanding you first.”
The conversation between the two of them was like a tongue twister. If it were in the past, Xiang Hong would not have the patience to talk about such nonsense. But now, he felt that this was very good. Being able to speak to her, even if it was just some nonsense, was it not very romantic?
He enjoyed it and never got tired.
