Wang Hao headed straight for the hotel's main entrance after leaving the room. From a distance, he saw Xia Xueqi anxiously waiting by the roadside, her head down, fidgeting with the hem of her clothing, lost in thought.
"Xueqi, what's wrong?" Wang Hao approached and asked, "Have you run into some trouble?"
"Brother Hao!" As soon as she saw Wang Hao emerge, Xia Xueqi's face was filled with distress: "Brother Hao, I really didn't want to bother you, but..."
"With our relationship, just say what's on your mind," Wang Hao led Xia Xueqi into a nearby coffee shop and inquired, "What happened exactly?"
Xia Xueqi hesitated for a moment before finally speaking up with resolve in her eyes. "My aunt's daughter is an actress in a production team. Everything was fine at first, and she even had a role, so I didn't mention it. But in the past two days, my sister called me, saying her role might be taken away."
