Step Aside, My CEO Ex-Husband!

Chapter 1173 - 1175: Extra Story 8

How could he possibly forget those difficult days? It was only because she was by his side that he persevered.He understood that phrase: even if the whole world abandoned him, there was still her protecting him.

In his life, he had two significant people: the first was the director, and the second was her!

He was grateful to the director for noticing he didn’t have an assistant, asking if Xia Ting was doing well, and if so, letting her stay with him.

Of course, Xia Ting was willing, and he agreed immediately!

He wasn’t used to strangers following him, so Xia Ting stayed by his side all the time, up until now!

"This is important; you can’t take a wrong step now, understand? A single misstep, and all our previous efforts will be in vain!" Xia Ting said seriously, not wanting to see him suffer any grievance again.

"I know." Chen Li replied, his mood somewhat low.

"Go to sleep now; tomorrow’s flight is at nine."

"Okay."

Early the next morning.

Chen Li and Xia Ting rushed to the airport, but were again blocked by a crowd of fans.

It was only when the airport security appeared and blocked the fans that they could leave.

They took a several-hour flight, and upon landing, immediately rushed to the TV station.

Everyone was waiting for him to record the show, which was to promote the soon-to-be-aired TV drama.

After Chen Li arrived, he immediately began rehearsals, with an hour left before recording time.

As the male and female leads, Chen Li and Ling Xiaoxiao naturally had interactions.

There was a segment where they both sang the TV drama’s theme song together.

After rehearsals, they started getting makeup ready for recording the show.

Everyone was in one dressing room; Chen Li and Ling Xiaoxiao’s seats were together.

"Chen Li, who did you watch the movie with yesterday?" Ling Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but ask, unable to deny she did have some feelings for him.

She watched his every move through the mirror. Could he have a girlfriend?

"A friend."

"A female?"

"Yes." Chen Li openly admitted, not wanting to hide anything.

In fact, he didn’t mind letting everyone know he watched the movie with Xia Ting.

"Is she your girlfriend?!" Ling Xiaoxiao asked nervously, could it be he really had a girlfriend?

Watching a movie together, if not a girlfriend, why would he watch a movie with her...

"What do you think?" Chen Li smirked and turned to look at Ling Xiaoxiao, countering her question.

"How would I know..." Ling Xiaoxiao’s smile became stiff.

His question clearly indicated he didn’t want to say, didn’t want to reveal who that woman was!

If he didn’t say, she would figure out who the woman he watched the movie with was!

Chen Li smiled and said nothing more, bowing his head to check his phone and look at Weibo.

Once makeup was done, the program recording began, with many fans in attendance.

They interacted with Chen Li and the others happily, and the crowd burst with screams.

Xia Ting stood aside, taking pictures with her phone and then sending them to the leader of his official fan club, asking them to post it on Weibo.

Halfway through recording, during the break, Chen Li came off stage.

She brought water to him, while Ling Xiaoxiao also held a bottle of water to give him.

Xia Ting tactfully retracted her hand, but before she could react, the water in her hand was taken by him.

She felt instantly awkward, looking at Ling Xiaoxiao, whose expression was very poor.

She hesitated to withdraw the water, waiting for Chen Li to take the bottle from her hand.

With an attitude that if he didn’t take it, she wouldn’t retract it!

"I’m not used to drinking this brand of water, thanks." Chen Li took a sip of water and looked at Ling Xiaoxiao to explain why he didn’t accept her water.

He was giving Ling Xiaoxiao a way out; he didn’t want to take her water, much less drink it!

"It’s okay, now I know what water you like to drink; I’ll buy this in the future." Ling Xiaoxiao’s expression softened, retracting her hand and showing a sweet smile.
