"What are you doing?!" Chu Chen was the first to come back to his senses. In anger, he took a big step forward and grabbed Xia Ling's arm.

Xia Ling's wrist was held in his vice-like grip and was extremely painful, but her eyes were cold and trained on Xia Yu. This slap made sure that Xia Yu's face started to swell, blood appearing at the edge of her lips. She laid on the ground where she fell, looking pitiful and confounded.

She covered her face with her hands, and the tears in her eyes this time were real. "Ye Yin Lin, why zid zu hit me?" Her face was numb from the pain and, as a result, she was unable to pronounce the words properly.

But Xia Ling understood her clearly.

"Why did I hit you?" Xia Ling smiled. "Because I never accept false accusations." Since Xia Yu wanted it to seem like she had hit her to the ground, then she would do just that. After all, the pictures had already been taken.

Xia Yu was speechless.

Chu Chen looked on, his mouth agape.

The rest of the people from Imperial Entertainment standing around stared in shock.

Several were wondering in their hearts, Miss Xia Yu, how did you get this demoness on your back?

Chu Chen almost crushed the bones in Xia Ling's hands with his grip. "Ye Xingling, you will pay for what you have done. Assistant Meng!" He shouted loudly. "Protect the premises! Get a doctor to check Miss Xia Yu's injury! And get a lawyer!"

"Who is going to check the injury and find a lawyer?" Another voice rang out, the iciness in his voice clear. "Chu Chen, what do you think you are doing grabbing onto our Skyart Entertainment artiste?!"

Everyone turned their heads and saw Wei Shaoyin hurriedly walking over with five or six Skyart Entertainment staff in tow. Wei Shaoyin's expression looked colder than a ten thousand year blizzard, and he walked over to grab Xia Ling's hand out of Chu Chen's. "Xiao Ling, are you hurt anywhere?"

Xia Ling lowered her head and lifted her shirt sleeve. An ugly greenish-purple bruise was starting to form on her wrist, and juxtaposed against her fair skin, it looked alarmingly serious.

"Get a doctor! And a lawyer!" Wei Shaoyin was furious in that instant. Who was Xia Ling? She was Skyart Entertainment's future diva! She was the partner that he was afraid would melt in his mouth and the treasure that was protected safely in his hands! He didn't even dare to scold her usually, ah, wait no, we'll leave that for now. In any case, Chu Chen dared treat her like that?!

Both sides started to get more heated and aggressive.

Seeing that the conflict was getting out of hand, Xia Ling suddenly laughed out loud softly.

"Okay, okay, Ah Wei," she said. "That's enough, we need to go film the promotional video." She was happy that she had managed to give Xia Yu a tight slap, and now that she had vented her anger, it was more important to ensure that there was no delay in the filming.

With that, she turned around first, intending to walk back to the filming location.

"Stop right there!" Chu Chen thought that she was afraid. "You think you can just swagger in here to hit someone, and then swagger out as you wish? The doctor and lawyer will be here any moment now. You are going to have to give us a good explanation for your actions!"

"You can speak to my lawyer if there are any problems." Xia Ling could not care to deal with him. She hurried Ah Wei. "Are you coming? I want to finish filming faster and return to the city. It's meaningless wasting time with these morons from Imperial Entertainment."
