CHAPTER 99: ARE YOU AFRAID OF ME?

Gu Tiantian wasn’t paying attention to what the host and Jiang Xinxin were saying at all; her attention was completely drawn by the barrage of text messages.

As a result, she didn’t even notice when Bai Chenyao came back.

When the host finally broke the hot gossip that Haitian Entertainment’s actress Cheng Xiaoyu has been shelved by the company, Gu Tiantian was a bit dizzy.

Since entering Haitian Entertainment, she realized that the happenings in that circle were far from being as simple as she had imagined.

If she hadn’t been somewhat of an involved party back then, hearing Bai Chenyao demanding Jiang Xinxin to be the female lead in the movie "A Lifetime of Peace," she thought she might have imagined countless scenarios too.

Her originally low spirits gradually improved as she watched the fans of Jiang Xinxin and Cheng Xiaoyu argue online.

She even couldn’t help but laugh upon seeing some witty replies.

In the kitchen, upon noticing that Mr. Bai was back, Mrs. Chen prepared dinner again, intending to let him eat, only to find him still standing in the living room, somewhat puzzled.

When she saw Mr. Bai continuously watching Miss Gu, who was sitting on the sofa watching TV and laughing, she quietly returned to the kitchen.

The mutual world of Mr. Bai and Miss Gu never tolerated disturbances from others.

Eyes glued to the TV, Gu Tiantian belatedly sensed an icy chill sweeping over her.

Her shoulders shrugged involuntarily, and her hands rubbed them.

By accident, out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Bai Chenyao standing in the center of the living room.

Her white and tender baby face still bore a slight smile, but now it could hardly be maintained.

As if there were pins under her, Gu Tiantian sprang up immediately.

"Mr. Bai, you’re back?"

After asking, she inwardly scolded herself.

He’s standing right there; if he wasn’t back, would he be a ghost?

Bai Chenyao’s handsome, cold face had a layer of frost on it.

His dark eyes fixed on Gu Tiantian, so sharp that Gu Tiantian felt like she’d been stripped bare.

The smile on her face slowly faded away, becoming very cautious, with a hint of unease.

In her mind, Gu Tiantian thought of Li Mu holding a gun.

It’s known that in Xia Country, ordinary citizens can’t possess firearms.

Unless you’re part of the armed forces like the police, it’s generally not allowed.

She was already somewhat afraid of Bai Chenyao, and now she was even more careful, fearing that she might be the next target of a bullet in the next second.

Bai Chenyao’s face, frosted with a cold layer, his dark eyes intensely focused on Gu Tiantian, his thin lips slightly pursed, with a hint of ferocity in his eyes.

"Are you afraid of me?"

Gu Tiantian was about to shake her head, but remembering what Bai Chenyao said last time about hating being deceived, she subconsciously nodded her little head.

Indeed, she was afraid!

She used to be afraid; now she’s terrified!

She didn’t want to be so cowardly, but comparing people can truly drive one crazy!

If she had Bai Chenyao’s aura, or if she had millions and a strong family background, who would she be afraid of!

She would be a proud little peacock!

"Why?"

The cold words struck Gu Tiantian’s heart.

She really wanted to roll her eyes!

Is there a reason for fear?

In Bai Chenyao’s mind, is there no pressure in shooting someone?

If this is really the case... Gu Tiantian was even more afraid to guess Bai Chenyao’s identity.

"That... Mr. Bai, Xia Country has clear regulations that illegal possession of firearms is considered illegal."

This statement should be obvious enough.

Evidently, at this moment, Gu Tiantian truly didn’t understand President Bai well enough.
