Bai Xi was right beside Cheng Xizhou, holding a thermos cup in her left hand and a laptop in her right.

"Teacher Xu, are you going to Brother Fang’s to play cards? Could you wait a moment? I brought Mr. Immortal’s autographed book, and I’ll quickly go back and get it."

Cheng Xizhou had been thinking about this all along; seeing Xu Xingguang, he was eager to give it to her.

"Okay, I also brought the skincare products I want to give you." Xu Xingguang suddenly mentioned Bai Xi’s name, "Sister Bai Xi, come with me to grab it from the room."

Bai Xi was momentarily stunned by Xu Xingguang calling her ’Sister’.

"Uh, okay."

Bai Xi followed Xu Xingguang into her suite.

Xu Xingguang had already packaged the skincare products she wanted to give Cheng Xizhou in a bag.

But Bai Xi noticed that Xu Xingguang had two bags for her, both containing the same amount of skincare products.

"Why are there two sets, Teacher Xu?" Bai Xi thought the other set was for another female star.

Xu Xingguang surprisingly said, "Both are for you."

Bai Xi was flattered and astonished, "How come there’s one for me too?"

"Didn’t Xizhou say you’re good friends? You follow Xizhou through thick and thin, it must be rough for you too. The skincare products I ordered for you have skin-nourishing and sleep-improving effects. Remember to use night cream at night for better sleep."

Bai Xi’s face turned red, "Thank you, Teacher Xu."

As Bai Xi was heading back with the two sets of skincare products, Cheng Xizhou happened to come over with the autographed book. Noticing Bai Xi carrying two bags, Cheng Xizhou asked, "Why are there two sets?"

Bai Xi then relayed Xu Xingguang’s exact words to Cheng Xizhou.

Upon learning the whole story, Cheng Xizhou was a bit moved and whispered to Bai Xi, "I have to say, Jiang Heng, that dog man, deceived Teacher Xu, tricked her into donating blood to save that sister of yours, he’s totally blind."

Hearing this, Bai Xi quickly covered Cheng Xizhou’s mouth. "Zhouzhou, don’t talk nonsense, Teacher Xu doesn’t mind Jiang Heng anymore, don’t mention Jiang Heng in front of Teacher Xu, don’t upset her."

"That’s true."

Xu Xingguang had caused quite a stir at Jiang Heng’s wedding, and now everyone knows how formidable Xu Xingguang is.

She simply doesn’t care about Jiang Heng.

After delivering the autographed book to Xu Xingguang’s room, Cheng Xizhou went with her downstairs to play cards.

Bai Xi then went straight downstairs to her room to sleep.

When they arrived at Fang Jinsu’s room, an elderly male actor was already seated at the Mahjong table.

The man looked about sixty and had slightly long black whiskers; he was Zhou Zhi, an old martial arts star.

Zhou Zhi was also addicted to cards and had been Fang Jinsu’s card friend for many years.

Fang Jinsu’s assistant had washed some fruit and brought it to the game room before leaving.

The four sat on each side, and Fang Jinsu asked Xu Xingguang about her card skills. Xu Xingguang honestly replied, "Pretty average, I know the rules but not the techniques."

Fang Jinsu suspiciously looked at Xu Xingguang, doubting whether she was being modest.

But after a few rounds, Fang Jinsu realized Xu Xingguang’s words were true.

Her card skills could be described as a complete mess.

After a few rounds, Xu Xingguang had already lost several times, making Fang Jinsu and Cheng Xizhou feel uncomfortable.

The two coordinated to let Xu Xingguang win, yet even with their help, she still didn’t win a single hand.

Fang Jinsu finally couldn’t hold back his laughter, "Teacher Xu’s card skills... are indeed quite average."

Xu Xingguang rarely showed an awkward expression, and she said, "I’m not good at cards, but I’m pretty good at fighting."

Upon hearing this, Fang Jinsu and Cheng Xizhou immediately thought of Xu Xingguang’s antics at Jiang Heng’s wedding.

They admire Teacher Xu’s ability to cause trouble and fight.

Zhou Zhi asked Xu Xingguang, "Has Teacher Xu trained before?"

Xu Xingguang nodded, "Messed around for a few years."

"Who did you learn martial arts from?"

Xu Xingguang continued to spin a tale, "My grandfather, he lived in the mountains before. When I spent summer vacations there, he would train me."

Having a discreetly passed away grandfather was convenient; Xu Xingguang could attribute all inexplicable events to him.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhi said, "When there’s time, I’d love to spar with Teacher Xu."

Zhou Zhi winked at Xu Xingguang, saying, "My master is the Sect Leader of the Chuanshan Sect. Although I’m not as skilled as my senior brother, I do have some abilities."

Zhou Zhi is actually trained in martial arts, making his fight scenes particularly professional.

"Sure."

After two more rounds, Xu Xingguang suddenly asked Cheng Xizhou, "Your assistant Bai Xi, I noticed she has good bone structure and looks quite photogenic. Would you mind lending her to the drama crew for a small role?"

Cheng Xizhou covered her mouth with a laugh and said, "Teacher Xu isn’t the first to have an interest in my assistant, but my Bai Xi doesn’t like acting."
