Chapter 390: Recording Studio Number Seven

In other words, the problems others faced were just a piece of cake to him.
Chu Chen was probably too eager to please her, or he was just very thoughtful and proper towards all his bosses. Xia Ling remembered that in her past life, she often had impromptu sessions to record songs and would use whichever studio was available. In the past, she never paid attention to these details, but thinking about it now, she was probably too privileged then.
No wonder people hated her in the past. It was laughable that she was so ignorant.
Right now, she could not let Luo Luo offend someone. She thought about it before saying to her, “How about you eat with me first? In the afternoon, you can use my studio to record your songs.”
The person she was meeting today was Feng Kun, and he would definitely have a place for her, so there was no problem giving it to Luo Luo.
“But in that case, what about you, Xiao Ling?”
“I don’t mind.” In this life, Xia Ling once wanted to reach the peak of the music industry, but that was to prove to herself that she could make it without relying on Pei Ziheng. However, now, she could not escape his support, so the peak was meaningless to her.
She came to look for Feng Kun regarding the baby and to kill time.
Luo Luo was touched but still rejected her. “No way, Xiao Ling. I can’t drag you down…”
She looked at Xia Ling with a pair of s.h.i.+ning eyes as if she wanted to say something. Suddenly, a man’s voice interrupted her. “Luo Luo! What are you still doing here? Quick! Li Yingchen is done with the studio. Quickly come here and finish recording earlier. In the afternoon, Xia Yu will be using it.”
Xia Ling turned around and saw a familiar figure. It was Zhou Bin, Imperial Entertainment’s veteran manager.
Zhou Bin ignored her and looked at Chu Chen who was beside her.
“Boss Chu, nice to meet you here.” His face lit up.
Presently, Chu Chen was in charge of Imperial Entertainment’s management department and was quite powerful.
Chu Chen slightly frowned. “Miss Ye wants to eat with Luo Luo. We can discuss matters after that.”
Thus, although Zhou Bin previously ignored Xia Ling, he suddenly placed importance on Chu Chen’s words and turned to look at Xia Ling. He quickly squeezed out a warm smile. “So it turns out that you are Miss Ye. I’ve long awaited to meet you. I’ve heard your songs before. You’re really amazing. No wonder you’re so popular. Haha.”
These people were all skilled at sailing with the wind. Xia Ling was impatient and said to Luo Luo, “Let’s go and have a meal.”
Zhou Bin continued to smile stiffly.
“Xiao Ling, I really don’t need to trouble you.” Luo Luo held her hand and said sincerely. “I have to seize this opportunity to catch up on work and record my songs. You just joined Imperial Entertainment, it’s not easy for you as well. You don’t have to give up your studio in the afternoon for me. I can’t impede your schedule.” This child was really determined and acted like Xia Ling was making a huge sacrifice.
Xia Ling wanted to sigh. G.o.d knew she only wanted to say h.e.l.lo to Feng Kun and not work.
However, seeing that Luo Luo was so insistent, she could only compromise with her. “Well then, you can record first.”
“I knew that Xiao Ling is the best!” The girl in front of her cheerfully smiled and waved. “I’ll get going first then.”
After seeing her bounce away, Xia Ling said to Chu Chen, “Let’s eat.”
Chu Chen had no objection and accompanied her to the restaurant.
The recording studio building was like a labyrinth. The restaurant was at the deepest part and another end of the building. She and Chu Chen took the elevator to the fourth floor and walked all the way past the winding corridor.
On the way, they pa.s.sed by recording studio number seven and heard a quarrel.
“It’s only 11:30, why can’t I use it?!” It was Luo Luo, who was sounding angry and anxious. “Xia Yu booked it for 1 pm, that’s an hour and a half away. I will record my songs very quickly and will definitely be able to finish before my time is up!”
“Why should I believe you just because you said you can finish recording in time? What happens if there’s a delay? Can you be responsible for it?” The other party refused to give in.
“I can definitely finish in time.” Luo Luo was anxious. “I only need some time during the early afternoon. This time was originally an empty recording slot anyway. I only need half an hour and at most one hour to finish recording!”
The other party sneered. “Luo Luo, this is not about whether you can finish recording. Miss Xia Yu wants us to clear the area before she starts recording, and we have to make preparations. Irrelevant people aren’t authorized in here. Do you know what that means?”
“You… you are just trying to take advantage of me!”
Xia Ling listened to their squabble and frowned. What was going on? She turned around to see Luo Luo’s small figure squeeze into the crowd so anxious that she wanted to cry. She looked really helpless. In front of her, there were a group of people who attended to Xia Yu. They looked indifferent and arrogant, clearly not taking her seriously.
Enemies were indeed bound to meet on a narrow road.
Xia Ling was busy during this period of time. She was thinking about Li Lei and worrying about her child such that she almost forgot that besides Luo Luo, Imperial Entertainment also had her “good sister” Xia Yu.
Xia Yu, who was in front of her, was wearing an elegant hand-embroidered dress, delicate flower jewelry, and had light-colored makeup which intensified her beauty. She looked like a weak princess with a circle of admirers around her and gently furrowed her eyebrows as if she saw something lowly and filthy that did not match her ident.i.ty.
Xia Ling could not help but walk over. “What’s going on?”
The man who was quarreling with Luo Luo turned over and saw an unfamiliar female celebrity. Thus, he dismissed and treated her like air. However, Xia Yu’s originally calm expression slightly changed. She looked at Xia Ling with some disgust before looking away.
Chu Chen’s voice could be heard from behind her. “Miss Ye just asked you a question. Zhao Jun, are you mute?”
Only then did those people saw him. That person who just quarreled with Luo Luo and ignored Xia Ling immediately changed his att.i.tude. “Boss Chu, it turns out to be you. Why did such a trivial matter bother you?”
After that, he finally turned around and looked at Xia Ling with a more friendly att.i.tude and answered her question. “It seems that you are Miss Ye. I apologize for not recognizing you.” In actuality, he recognized Ye Xingling a long time ago. However, it was strange. Why did a female singer who had just left Dongyue run to Imperial Entertainment’s recording studio? Could it be that she joined Imperial Entertainment? Looking at Chu Chen’s att.i.tude, it was indeed possible that she had joined Imperial Entertainment.
However, so what if she joined Imperial Entertainment?
Without Chu Chen’s support, she was just an ordinary female celebrity and was not special among the superstars of Imperial Entertainment. Thus, Zhao Jun ignored her from the start.
However, it was different now that Chu Chen was obviously backing her up.
Zhao Jun smiled and said, “It’s a misunderstanding, really. You see, this is Miss Xia Yu’s timeslot for recording. However, Luo Luo insisted on interrupting her. This child is really too ignorant. We will deal with her immediately.”
