Empress of the Entertainment World

Chapter 184 She Is Mine

**************

CHAPTER 184

Ignoring his sorry attempt to call her back, Andromeda went about her work quickly.

She wished to forget anything relating to Wu Bai for the remaining hours of the day so her mind could rest and be more productive.

According to her plan, seeing as the fashion show was just two days away, she wished to act on the main day.

Warning him was her first action, and if he had listened, then perhaps removing the negative comments about her online would have been her first agenda.

And then proceed with other plans slowly.

Although he never deserved it, she still gave him a chance. Her mistake.

She should have known nothing good would come out of that perverted scumbag.

He had a game up his sleeve with her video, now it was her turn to call the shots.

*****

While Andromeda busied herself with her never ending schedules, Liu Xueyi had Cari and Jian Xiaofei keep a close eye on her for him.

Unbeknownst to Andromeda, he had more than one person tracking her and would have them report to him her daily activities.

As much as he did that to protect her, it was also due to the fact that the shooting of his new film took more of his time.

And in a bid to conceal his secret identity, he decided not to interfere with her during this period and was glad she had other things to keep her busy.

Whenever he had finished with his CEO's work, he needed to go to his house and rehearse his scenes, reading the script given to him properly.

To make matters worse for Liu Xueyi, his feelings for Andromeda and his thoughts kept on invading his mind and breaking past whatever defense he had placed around his head.

This further made him lose focus and dejected sighs became the order of the day escaping his lips.

When they shot a scene today, he made more mistakes than he had done in the past years of his acting career to the point the director called him aside to check what was wrong.

Never had Liu Xueyi been this disturbed because of a girl. Now he wondered if loving her was the right thing to do considering his work was in danger.

Heaving out a sigh, Liu Xueyi beckoned to his driver. "Let us drop by the next eatery. I want to get some ice cream and cakes. I guess I need the extra sweets."

"Sure sir."

Getting his affirmation, he relaxed back on his seat and welcomed the thoughts of Andromeda lingering in his mind.

'I would get her some cake, cookies and ice cream too. She needs this since she does some good brain work.'

She never told him she had a sweet tooth but he knew she did.

A knowing smile formed around the corners of his lips keeping those thoughts aside.

Once they arrived, Liu Xueyi stepped out quickly, hanging his suit on his shoulder as he made his way towards the entrance.

At the same time when he got close to the first staircase, the door to the eatery pulled open, revealing a young man similarly dressed as he was.

His charisma mirrored that of a rich man as he placed a hand in his pocket before lifting his head slowly.

Upon setting his gaze on the handsome face of the young man standing before him, Liu Xueyi's feet remained rooted to the ground.

Instantly, scenes of that night came flashing back in his mind, causing his pupils to dilate slightly.

There was no way he could mistake it.

This was the very same man who had gotten a kiss from Andromeda.

Liu Xueyi battled with the very thought in his mind, while Xie Tian, who at that particular time saw him, went immobile for a bit.

Memories of that night came rolling in as his chest tightened and he had to control his emotions.

Howbeit, his grip on the white leather bag in his hand tightened as the words of Andromeda's confession echoed in his mind.

'I love Liu Xueyi.'

He had never wanted someone in his life like how much he wanted Andromeda and he regretted it every day for the past 5 years he was away from her that he neglected her feelings when he had the chance.

Now that there was a chance once more, he was late again.

None of them made any move but the hostile look in their eyes spoke of the untold feud between them.

It was Liu Xueyi who broke the chilly air that suddenly surrounded them after some seconds.

He took a few steps up till he came to stand side by side with Xie Tian and slowly cast a side glance at the latter.

However, before he could speak, Xie Tian took the time of his movement to conjure up his thoughts and make the first statement.

He had hoped taking the first words out of Liu Xueyi's mouth would mean he had the best and final say.

"So, you are Liu Xueyi…" He tsked a bit before turning his head a bit to stare straight into his eyes.

"We finally meet," Xie Tian added.

Battling his eyelids, lazily, Liu Xueyi questioned calmly, "Got a problem with me?"

"Not much," Xie Tian shrugged with a half-smile.

"I see," Liu Xueyi responded, pulling up a soft smile.

"Yes."

Instantly, the smile that had spread from Xie Tian's lips, reaching his eyes finally vanished as his lips tugged down instead.

"I'm going to get her."

"You can't," Liu Xueyi corrected instead.

"But I got her kiss. She kissed me willfully."

"Ah, yes!" For a moment there, he acted surprised, making Xie Tian think he won.

Unknown to the latter, that was just one of his little tricks to turn the game around.

"That is one kiss. I have taken much more."

A seductive smile formed on his lips while staring ahead, refusing to look at the latter who seemed to have finally digested his words.

Instantly, Xie Tian's brows knitted into a frown at Liu Xueyi's words.

"How dare you take advantage of her?!"

Ignoring the look of displeasure on the latter's face, Liu Xueyi silently scoffed at his silly words and drew closer to Xie Tian.

The air around the changed, dropping to a dumbfounding degree as Liu Xueyi exuded more of his dominance and the look in his eyes went dead cold in a threatening manner.

"Advantage? Is it possible you don't know?"

"Hmm..." Before Xie Tian could speak, he bombarded him with another set of questions.

"Or you're not just smart enough to accept it? Do you need a better clarification?"

Xie Tian's gaze shifted from calm to deadly but yet it could not match the dark deadly glint sparking in Liu Xueyi's eyes.

"She is mine."

There was no space left for argument in his tone like he had already claimed the prize and there was no going back.

As soon as he made it clear to the dumbstruck Xie Tan, he turned his head away, focusing on the door instead with that mockery smile lingering on his lips.

Rather than leaving immediately, he waited for a few seconds.

Enjoying how he ended up rendering Xie Tian speechless, Liu Xueyi let out a sardonic smile, yet his eyes held a glint of humour.

Without uttering another word, Liu Xueyi placed a foot on the next staircase as he majestically made his way past Xie Tian and went into the eatery.
