Chapter 246 - Conflict with the Company
Chapter 246: Conflict with the Company
As Xia Wanyuan had expected, Jun Shiling knew everything.
Xia Wanyuan, who originally did not know any methods, gradually grasped the key points under Jun Shiling’s verbal guidance.
Xia Wanyuan had always been a fast learner. When she was fifty meters away from the first one, she still had to rely on the hoverboard. When she was at her second fifty meters, she could already throw the board away and swim properly.
Jun Shiling sat beside the pool and taught Xia Wanyuan the skills one by one. Nanny Li and the maids had long left the venue.
Xia Wanyuan’s actions were extremely standard, so she looked extremely beautiful. She was like a butterfly fluttering in the waves.
Although Xia Wanyuan wore a seemingly normal outfit, it actually had a restrained beauty when she wore it.
Her slender legs parted the waves in the water and closed again. They were as straight as chopsticks.
After soaking in the water, the bathing suit became even more fitting, perfectly outlining Xia Wanyuan’s figure. Jun Shiling felt that the room was stuffy and reached out to unbutton his shirt.
Half an hour later, Xia Wanyuan was already very skilled. She swam happily in the water. Jun Shiling felt extremely stuffy and wanted to go out for a breather.
The water in the pool was a little cold. According to the normal swimming steps, one needed to warm up before swimming. Otherwise, if they soaked in the cold water for too long, their legs would cramp.
Uncle Wang had withdrawn the professional teacher, so Xia Wanyuan naturally did not know to warm up. When Jun Shiling arrived, Xia Wanyuan had already entered the water, so he naturally did not let her get up again.
Hence, when Xia Wanyuan swam back and forth in the water, her right leg suddenly spasmed. Xia Wanyuan, who was lying in the water, suddenly flipped over.
Jun Shiling lowered his head to unbutton his shirt. When he looked up again, he saw Xia Wanyuan sinking into the water.
“What’s wrong?” Jun Shiling hurriedly got up and walked to the pool to check, only to see Xia Wanyuan struggling in the water.
With a splash, Jun Shiling jumped into the water.
Xia Wanyuan felt that her right leg was cold and numb, as if she did not feel anything. Some water from the pool was poured into her nose. Just as she was about to sink into the water, she saw Jun Shiling swimming towards her.
Xia Wanyuan subconsciously handed her hand over. Jun Shiling reached out and pulled her into his arms, then brought her out of the water.
Finally breathing air, Xia Wanyuan supported herself in Jun Shiling’s arms and panted heavily.
“You’ve been soaking for too long. Your leg is cramping. Don’t swim today,” Jun Shiling said as he carried Xia Wanyuan towards the shore.
Xia Wanyuan, who was wearing a swimsuit, was in Jun Shiling’s arms. Everything that Jun Shiling touched was shockingly snow-white.
Standing in the pool, Jun Shiling carried Xia Wanyuan ashore, but he did not go up. Instead, he stood in the water and massaged Xia Wanyuan’s calves.
Xia Wanyuan, who was drenched in water, was as fresh and moving as a lotus flower that had just come out of the water.
However, the figure outlined by the wet clothes was extremely provocative. Water droplets dripped down from her body, all the way to her chest, and disappeared. Just one look at her made Jun Shiling’s heart surge.
Jun Shiling’s large hand was warm as he pressed down on Xia Wanyuan’s calf. His gaze was not on Xia Wanyuan, but he lowered his head, thinking about something.
After a while…
“Alright, go and change first.” Jun Shiling stopped pinching Xia Wanyuan’s calf and turned to swim away.
For the umpteenth time that day, Jun Shiling sighed in his heart.
This woman was really troublesome and torturous.
He vented all his excess energy on exercising until his heart calmed down. Only then did Jun Shiling get up. Uncle Wang had already sent someone to deliver the clothes.
When Jun Shiling returned to the main building, Xia Wanyuan was drying her wet hair.
Jun Shiling walked over and took the hairdryer from the servant, gently blowing Xia Wanyuan’s hair.
Because Jun Shiling often helped her like this, Xia Wanyuan was already used to it. When Jun Shiling stood behind her, she found a suitable position herself and waited for Jun Shiling to blow dry her hair.
A smile flashed across Jun Shiling’s eyes, and her hair gradually became smooth in his hands.
“Teach me another swimming posture tomorrow?” Xia Wanyuan thought of the swimming competitions she had watched. There seemed to be a variety of swimming competitions.
Jun Shiling’s hand, which was brushing against his hair, paused. He seemed to have thought of something, and his earlobe turned red. His grip on Xia Wanyuan’s hair tightened.
After not receiving an answer for a long time, Xia Wanyuan could not help but ask, “Can’t you?”
“Sure.” Jun Shiling’s voice was a little low and hoarse.
Without Xiao Bao at home, Xia Wanyuan still remembered the awkwardness of waking up that morning and hugging Jun Shiling. Hence, Jun Shiling could only sleep in the secondary bedroom that night.
The lights in the secondary bedroom were switched on for the entire night, while Xia Wanyuan slept quite well in the master bedroom.

“It’s already ten o’clock. Hasn’t she arrived yet?”
In Star Creation Entertainment, Li Yin picked up his watch again and frowned.
“Call Xia Wanyuan!” Li Yin shouted angrily at his assistant.
“I’ve already called her many times, CEO Li, but I can’t get through to Xia Wanyuan.”
“Where’s Chen Yun?” Li Yin felt humiliated from being played.
“It’s the same for Chen Yun’s phone. I can’t get through.”
As a manager, it was impossible for the phone to be disconnected for a long time unless he deliberately did not want to answer the phone.
“Get someone to stop all of Xia Wanyuan’s business activities!” Li Yin slammed the table fiercely, and the flesh on his body trembled. “This is too much.”
After hearing that the Xia family’s company had been restarted, the higher-ups of Star Creation Entertainment had sent people to investigate and see if Xia Wanyuan’s background was still around.
In the end, he realized that Xia Wanyuan’s father was no longer the company’s chairman. The person in charge of the company now was Shen Qian.
Since she no longer had her former background, Li Yin’s attitude towards Xia Wanyuan was no longer as tolerant as before.
Xia Wanyuan did not have many commercial activities. The promotion of a potato chip had already been completed, and only Ya Zi’s endorsement and the variety show was left.
When the original owner of the body signed the contract, the company bullied her for not understanding and signed an extremely unreasonable contract. It was fine when there was nothing wrong, but once there was a conflict with the company, it was basically based on the company’s interests.
Xia Wanyuan, who was preparing for the second episode of “I am a Big Star” variety show, received a notification from Star Creation Entertainment and directly withdrew.
Furthermore, the reason given by the company was “The artiste thinks that filming variety shows is tiring.”
The production team did not understand, nor did the netizens.
[ Can you still quit halfway?? Don’t you want your professional ethics anymore? ]
[ Come and go as you please. Although the orange platform isn’t a large platform, you can’t be so casual, right? ]
[ You’re tired from filming a variety show. Do you really think of yourself as a little princess? ]
[ Xia Wanyuan’s face is indeed good-looking, but her professional quality is really not admirable. ]
[ Emmmm. ]
