Sugar And Spice: The CEO's Feisty Wife Chapter 178 - Hotel Red Dragon (1)

Feng Xinying and Wu Bosun's gaze met. While Feng Xinying was looking at them with bitterness, Wu Bosun could only look at her with admiration. Inside his heart softened and skipped a beat. He found it impossible to stop his raging emotions for her. 

Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ noticed him staring at her and immediately felt jealous. She clenched her teeth. Feng Xinying was just trying to take away everything she liked in her life. She coughed loudly and Wu Bosun's gaze broke much to his annoyance. "Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, you should drink water slowly," said Wu Bosun when he found her holding a gla.s.s of water in her hands. 

Feng Xinying was called inside the office of her agent in the next two minutes while the two of them were called in Ju Long's office. Ju Long was very pleased to meet Wu Bosun. It was surely an honor. When Wu Bosun was asked to sign the contract, he said that he would need some amendments and Ju Long happily accepted them. However, it was Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ who was becoming annoying right from the beginning. 

"Who is Feng Xinying's agent?" she asked. "I want the same agent." 

"Miss s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, I am sorry but we can't give that agent to you but the one that we are giving is an upcoming agent. She will work nicely with you and will grow with you," said Ju Long. 

"Grow with me? Are you mad? I will not accept someone with less experience. Why are you giving Feng Xinying a better agent?" she said a little loudly. 

Ju Long was a smart businessman. He had given Wu Bosun one of his best agents since he was a star who deserved it, but Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was a newcomer with absolutely no proficiency. She didn't even have the modeling experience like Feng Xinying had. Very politely and professionally, he refused her, "I am sorry Miss Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ I cannot give you anyone other than her. She is the only one free at the moment. Also, please don't compare yourself with Miss Xinying. She has a great offer from Lu Dao, who don't go around picking anyone randomly." 

"Do you know that Lu Dao had picked me first and then Feng Xinying came and ruined my chance?" Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ spat feeling jealous. 

"It doesn't matter. She has the role while you don't," he replied nonchalantly. 

Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was very angry and was about to say something when Wu Bosun stopped her. "It is better that you accept the terms right now. We will see as we go ahead." He was getting late for his shoot and was in a big hurry. He just couldn't let Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ continue with the argument. 

Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ looked at him with a sad expression and signed the contract. Wu Bosun left for the film shooting, while Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was ushered in the office of her agent Yue Jong. Yue Jong was a young girl who had just joined. She had limited experience. Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ remembered that at Starline she had got the top agent while Feng Xinying was going to get someone lesser and here it was just the opposite. Anger boiled up inside her and she wanted to storm out of the office but she went to meet the new agent quietly. 

The new agent asked her to get a portfolio ready as soon as possible. She gave her the normal regime that any actor had to follow in a day. Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ asked her impatiently, "When will I get to work in the movies?" 

"Miss s.h.i.+s.h.i.+, don't worry we will get there. Once your portfolio is ready, I will show it to the prospective clients." 

"Can you tell me what all projects Feng Xinying is working on?" 

Yue Jong shook her head and said, "Sorry, agents don't talk about the stars they manage. It is against our policies." 

Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was getting impatient. She rudely said, "Okay." 

"Tomorrow you come for your portfolio shoot. Our makeup artists will do your makeup. Please be here at 8AM because it takes about two hours for the makeup to finish."

"Okay," she said and got up to take her leave from there. While walking out she looked at the room where Feng Xinying had entered. She looked around to see if anyone was around. There was no one. She tiptoed her way to the door and pressed her ears hard against it to listen to what was going on over there. 

"Miss Xinying, your portfolio is ready, so we have already sent it to several of the potential clients who are looking for models like you."

"Thank you, Mr. Hong Gi," replied Feng Xinying with a smile. "I wanted to talk about martial arts training. Is it okay if I hire a personal trainer? I don't want to go out for fifteen days…" 

Hong Gi's face became stern. "Sorry, Miss Xinying but we are very strict about that. We don't allow any laziness from our stars. Plus the trainer has been sent the kind of moves he has to teach you for the movie. He has already made a schedule for you to follow. You have to go there." 

Feng Xinying lowered her head and nodded. 

Zhou Ah Ming got up to leave and bowed to the agent. "Okay thanks Mr. Hong Gi." He went to open the door and as soon as he opened it, Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ came stumbling in. She lost balance and fell on the floor. 

"Ouch!" she cried in pain. 

Zhou Ah Ming narrowed his eyes, as the other two in the office looked at her with surprise. 

"I thought this was a toilet," stuttered Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ and got up immediately to go. 

While going out she thought that she should get her portfolio ready as soon as possible.

If Feng Xinying hadn't come that day on time, the audition would have gotten over with her getting the role in Lu Dao's movie. She wished that Feng Xinying got into an accident and then she would get her role. 

Suddenly her screen flashed with a message. It was from Wu Bosun, 

[Tomorrow we have to go for a function, which Lu Dao has hosted at 8PM on the rooftop of Hotel Red Dragon.]

Ru s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ frowned at the message. Then she called a cab and instead of going home, she went to the Hotel Red Dragon.
