Xiao Man’s appearance broke the atmosphere in the entire meeting room.

Originally, everyone was up in arms, as if Xiao Man had committed a heinous crime, and they couldn’t wait to annihilate her; everyone had a lot to say.

However, now that they saw her in person, and she was standing right in front of them, everyone was suddenly mute, even the chief director, who had been most vehement, was momentarily struck dumb, stunned.

"Could it be that my arrival has spoiled everyone’s mood?" Xiao Man watched the silent crowd, yet she smiled beautifully.

The men at the table all took a sharp breath.

Usually, they really hadn’t seen Xiao Man smile so pleasantly.

At this moment, they felt that the three men in the pictures, whoever they were, were lucky – at least they had her...

Perhaps what most men were angry about was that the men in the photos weren’t themselves; they didn’t have the chance to have Xiao Man.

The one they couldn’t have, someone else did, which is why they were infuriated and clamoring to take her to task.

However, they failed to realize that Xiao Man never belonged to them. Whomever she was with, that was her freedom. It’s one thing to say her private life was a mess, but there’s no reason to put the stigma of a public bus on her just like that.

"Xiao Man..." Upon seeing Xiao Man, the chief director wasn’t as ferocious as before, and he put on a fairly pleasant smile, "You go out first, we’re still in a meeting. Go to the lounge and wait a bit, afterward, I’ll come over personally and explain to you in detail."

"Really? I thought everyone was discussing me and would prefer that I be present. How come once I’m here, no one speaks..." Xiao Man was tall and wearing high heels, exuding a strong presence. "Okay, it seems indeed because of me, it’s not convenient for everyone to discuss. Then I’ll go wait in the lounge."

After speaking, Xiao Man turned around and left the meeting room, and finally, the silence was broken.

Everyone let out a sigh of relief.

A few looked at the chief director with expressions that said: Where’s the momentum you promised?

The chief director coughed slightly: "I did it out of respect for our previous cooperation, to give her some face!"

Everyone knew what was going on.

Xiao Man’s presence was as formidable as ever; she didn’t seem like someone who needed others to give her face.

Her demeanor was as if she wasn’t the protagonist of these two incidents.

After Xiao Man went in, there were also some people outside waiting to see the director tear into Xiao Man, but...

When Xiao Man opened the door and came out, everyone unconsciously stepped back to make way for her.

There is a kind of aura that is innate and cannot be learned by others. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Xiao Man had a private VIP lounge at YS TV Station, which was hers until today’s incident.

Because the incident happened suddenly and there was no official notification from above, even though everyone already felt that she no longer deserved her own lounge, no one could stop her from entering now if she wanted to.

A few people shirked among themselves, but in the end, no one dared to step forward to offend her.

They say a fallen tiger is bullied by dogs, but Xiao Man, this down-on-her-luck tiger, still had sharp teeth, and no brave dog wanted to test if they would end up as a meal on the plate.

Therefore, the best course of action was to not provoke her.

But it also meant that no one would go into that lounge.

Looking at the place that was empty with only herself, Xiao Man couldn’t help but laugh.

That’s fine.

On normal days, it was hard to have a moment of rest, with people constantly coming in every other day asking for autographs for friends and family.

Today, it’s finally quiet.
