Chapter 210: The Two Sides Meet (2)

　　"I heard that there's another person here for the audition?"

　　Xue Sijia's Manager grasped every second she could to squeeze out what she wanted to know from the girl.

　　The girl was a cla.s.sic IT worker. She was smarter than anyone when it came to coding, but she lacked experience when it came to interpersonal communication. Hence, she divulged everything she knew without hiding a single thing.

　　"Yeah, another lady came; she's someone the higher-ups scouted online. She's already here, and she's in the office. She's so pretty!" Once she said that a stupid smile crept onto her face.

　　What the girl said attracted Xue Sijia's attention. s.h.i.+fting her focus away from the floor numbers, she gently lowered her shades, and her dazzling, spirited eyes gazed straight at the girl.

　　A fan online had once said that Xue Sijia's eyes were like a spotlight that ama.s.sed all of the world's light within them. She herself, however, was as cold as ice. The combination of these two opposing characteristics was enough to cause others to fall into a daze if they weren't careful.

　　In the past, this beauty-lover would have long since given in once Xue Sijia eyed her. However, she was very calm now and s.h.i.+fted her gaze away two seconds later without batting an eyelid.

　　After all, once she'd seen that unearthly beauty, no one else could capture her attention!

　　The Manager glanced at her charge. Xue Sijia had pushed up her shades, and her lips were now curled into a clear frown. Her Manager laughed and said, "Haha, the number of beautiful people is steadily increasing, compet.i.tion in our industry's getting stiffer every day too."

　　When she heard that, the girl suddenly wondered whether singing the praises of someone else in front of a celebrity was the right thing to do.

　　Coming to that realization, the girl apologised and stuck out her tongue. "Miss… Miss Xue's very pretty too."

　　The Manager smiled silently at the girl.

　　With her back against the girl and her eyes covered by her shades, Xue Sijia silently rolled her eyes.

　　She's 'very pretty too'? Heh heh, she's very pretty 'too'? She wanted to see just how beautiful this person who dared to compete against her was.

　　The beauty-lover suddenly felt the lift's temperature drop by a bit. In her heart, she couldn't help but remark, "She really is an arrogant ice queen; she can even control the temperature! Luckily for me, we're about to reach our destination. Otherwise, I might have caught a cold."
