Shen Huai simply didn't know what to say.
Putting aside the fact that Ye Cang had made a mess of his room, it wasn't that he hadn't tried to manage it, but the problem was that he simply couldn't. In the end, he could only make a three-point agreement: the common areas must be kept clean. As for his own room, there was no way to manage it. He could just close the door and avoid seeing it and getting annoyed.
But what does that have to do with whether you like it or not?!
Seeing that Shen Huai didn't speak, Xu Anqi assumed he was acquiescing, which made her even angrier. She stubbed out the unsmoked cigarette in the ashtray, pointed at him, and shouted angrily, "You two scumbags!!"
After saying that, she angrily left in her high heels.
Shen Huai: "..."

In the studio, Li Zihang waited anxiously for a while before Ye Cang walked over. He was about to ask him where he had gone, but seeing his expression, he swallowed the question.
Ye Cang walked over casually and asked Li Zihang, "Is the rehearsal over?"
Li Zihang: "Well... um, since you weren't here just now, Brother Yu said that we'll all go through the procedures together in a bit, and then we'll officially start recording."
Ye Cang nodded: "Understood."
Just as the two were about to continue rehearsing, Ye Cang's phone rang. He glanced at the name on the screen, his eyes darkening slightly, before walking aside to answer it: "Hello."
Shen Huai said calmly, "I still have things to take care of. I'll have Xue Chengge come pick you up from get off work later."
Ye Cang: "What is it?"
Shen Huai: "It's a personal matter."
Ye Cang didn't speak, so Shen Huai asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
Ye Cang suppressed the turmoil in his heart: "It's nothing, you go ahead and do your work."
Shen Huai responded and then hung up the phone.
Ye Cang held his phone and gently stroked it for a while before walking towards Li Zihang.
Li Zihang felt a bit cold, so he pulled his coat up a little further. "Then... shall we go over now?"
Ye Cang gave a faint "hmm".
As the two entered the studio, the crew members, having finished their makeup, walked over from another direction, chatting and laughing. Xu Anqi, surrounded by the crowd, suddenly turned her gaze and bumped right into Ye Cang.
Xu Anqi raised her lips, revealing a provocative smile.
Ye Cang also gave a cold laugh, and then the two of them simultaneously turned their gazes away.
The exchange of glances was extremely brief; apart from Li Zihang, who was standing next to Ye Cang and watching him closely, no one else noticed it.
Guo Yu happened to walk over and told the two of them about the procedures to follow. Then he jokingly said to Ye Cang, "Ye Cang, be gentle when you play the game later. We have two girls here."
Ye Cang gave a cold smile: "Okay, I'll try my best."
Guo Yu shivered, muttered something, and left.
As soon as Guo Yu left, Ye Cang began to stretch his neck and wrists, his usually lazy eyes now filled with fighting spirit.
Li Zihang glanced at him, then looked blankly at Xu Anqi, who was also moving around opposite him, and that strange feeling returned.
What's with this feeling of déjà vu between my ex and my current partner?!
Chapter 31
After leaving the TV station, Shen Huai drove to the law firm.
However, as soon as he entered the law firm, he saw a familiar face—an elderly man with a full head of white hair and a vigorous spirit. Shen Huai quickly walked over and said, "Mr. Qi, you're back?"
Qi Wenyi was pleasantly surprised to see Shen Huai. She walked over and patted Shen Huai's shoulder hard: "Just got back, I was just about to call you!"
Qi Wenyi is one of the top lawyers in all of China and a partner in this law firm. He has served Shen Huai's family since their generation, and the two families have a decades-long friendship. However, Qi Wenyi is now older and spends most of his time on vacation, so he has other lawyers from the firm serve him.
Knowing that Shen Huai had come over on business, Qi Wenyi told him to go ahead and do his work while she waited for him in her office.
After Shen Huai finished his business, he walked to Qi Wenyi's office door. Before he could knock, Qi Wenyi's voice came from inside: "Come in."
Shen Huai pushed open the door and went in. Qi Wenyi took off his reading glasses and rubbed his eyes: "I'm getting old, I can't even see the words clearly anymore."
Shen Huai laughed and said, "Where are you old? I saw you went diving a few days ago. Your stamina is better than that of young people."
Qi Wenyi laughed too: "You, now you're just like them, learning to flatter." She then asked, "How have you been lately? Still working as an agent?"
Shen Huai nodded.
Qi Wenyi smiled and said, "Then I'll have someone buy a hundred or so copies of that album tomorrow to support your artist. I remember, his name is Bai... what was it again?"
"Bai Weijia," Shen Huai said, then added with a hint of helplessness, "but we've already terminated the contract, he's no longer my artist."
Qi Wenyi frowned: "Another contract termination?"
Shen Huai: "...Hmm."
Qi Wenyi didn't dwell on it much: "Alright, what's your current artist's name? I'll go support him."
The old man's "not short of money" attitude made Shen Huai feel both amused and touched. When he suddenly decided to become an agent, many people did not understand, but the old man had always been very supportive of him.
Seeing that the old man was really going to send someone out to buy it, and even claimed that he wanted to use it as a holiday gift for the law firm, Shen Huai smiled and shook his head: "That's not necessary, he hasn't even debuted yet."
The old man was still unhappy: "Don't treat me like an old fogey. I understand everything. I even have a Weibo account!"
