So Bai Xiaoxiao and Qiao Yinyin didn't feel much of a sense of crisis regarding her.
But it was different for Qiao Yinyin regarding Bai Xiaoxiao, and Bai Xiaoxiao regarding Qiao Yinyin.
The moment these two women met, the expressions on their faces were not only fascinating, but they also cast aggrieved looks at Jiang Cheng from time to time.
The air backstage seemed to freeze for a few seconds at that moment.
Soon, Qiao Yinyin was the first to break the silence.
"Hello, everyone."
Hearing this, Bai Xiaoxiao and Peng Shiqi both nodded with a smile.
Seeing a staff member say something to her,
Peng Shiqi immediately took the opportunity to start chatting with the staff member.
Peng Shiqi knew a bit about the relationship between Jiang Cheng and the two women.
She didn't want to be caught in the crossfire of such a volatile Shura Field.
Bai Xiaoxiao had actually known for a long time that Qiao Yinyin would be participating in this event.
The reason she was so surprised now was simply because Jiang Cheng had actually appeared with Qiao Yinyin.
Thus, for a moment, she couldn't help but feel a trace of uncontrollable jealousy.
However, jealousy aside, Bai Xiaoxiao was quite clever in such situations.
She quickly adjusted her emotions and expression, putting on her signature sweet smile.
She walked towards Jiang Cheng and Qiao Yinyin with light steps.
"Onii-chan," Bai Xiaoxiao called out sweetly.
After calling Jiang Cheng, her gaze naturally turned to Qiao Yinyin.
"You must be Sister Yinyin, right?" Bai Xiaoxiao said with a smile, her tone warm and friendly. "I've heard so much about you. I'm also from Xingchen Media, but this is the first time we've met."
This "Sister" was said with exceptional intimacy.
However, to Qiao Yinyin, it felt like a fine needle pricking her heart.
This seemingly friendly address had a different, deeper meaning to Qiao Yinyin's ears.
The smile on Qiao Yinyin's face didn't fade at all; it even became a few degrees sweeter than before.
Originally, when they entered, she had kept her distance from Jiang Cheng for fear of being photographed.
But now, she took half a step forward, quietly narrowing the distance between her and Jiang Cheng.
Her voice was soft and sweet but carried an unquestionable seriousness: "Hello there. No need to call me'Sister.' I'm only 20 this year, probably the same age as you."
Hearing this, the smile on Bai Xiaoxiao's face froze for an instant.
Her original intention was to highlight her advantage by emphasizing her own youth and innocence.
However, she never expected that Qiao Yinyin was actually the same age as her!
After a brief pause, Bai Xiaoxiao quickly regained her composure.
She displayed a natural smile once more and reached out to gently tuck a stray hair behind her ear.
She said softly, "So that's how it is. That's really unexpected. Yinyin, you look so mature and steady that I always thought you were older than me."
This sentence not only cleverly gave her a way out but also gave Qiao Yinyin a subtle compliment.
At the same time, it hinted that Qiao Yinyin looked a bit "old," making the remark truly airtight.
After hearing this, the expression on Qiao Yinyin's face stiffened again.
After cursing inwardly, Qiao Yinyin laughed.
She wouldn't lose when it came to sarcasm, okay?
Even before her livestreams became popular, her main persona was that of a sharp-tongued Streamer who wouldn't listen to advice.
She took the opportunity to hook her arm around Jiang Cheng's, her body leaning slightly toward him.
She said in an intimate tone, "Ah? Really? Most 20-year-olds around me are about as tall as I am. I'm not exactly fully developed either."
This sentence was a critical hit, and now it was Bai Xiaoxiao's turn to have her face fall.
The implication of Qiao Yinyin's words was clearly that she was underdeveloped and short, wasn't it?
Caught in the middle, Jiang Cheng felt his scalp tingle. He gave a dry cough, trying to smooth things over: "You were invited too?"
Both women were very smart and sensible.
They knew they could only vent their jealousy at each other, not at Jiang Cheng.
With a smile on her lips, Bai Xiaoxiao nodded gently to Jiang Cheng.
She said softly, "Onii-chan, I was invited at the last minute last night. I rushed to catch a flight early this morning, so I didn't have time to tell you. Manager Xie said it might be because they value the influence and appeal of Rongcheng Sweetheart, which is why they decided to invite me on such short notice."
Seeing that they had conversed for a few moments without any signs of a total disaster,
and that even the expressions of the two women were all smiles, only then did Peng Shiqi walk toward them unhurriedly.
Although Bai Xiaoxiao and Qiao Yinyin didn't see Peng Shiqi as a competitor,
when Peng Shiqi thought of the million-yuan luxury goods Jiang Cheng had bought her that day, she couldn't help but feel a bit uneasy.
Those things were still in the hotel, and she hadn't even unpacked many of them.
She had never seen so many high-end luxury products before.
Suddenly having them all be hers made her feel a sense of disillusionment.
What was more, after she added Jiang Cheng, he hadn't given her any hints or contacted her.
It was precisely this abnormality that made her even more nervous.
She even unconsciously opened WeChat every day to see if there were any new messages from Jiang Cheng.
It could be said that for the past few days, aside from work, the thing she thought about most was actually Jiang Cheng.
Even the male Internet Celebrity she originally had a crush on had been almost forgotten by her over these two days.
After walking over, she immediately nodded politely to Jiang Cheng and Qiao Yinyin in greeting.
"Mr. Jiang, Sister Yinyin."
