Xie Huai · Conversa

Xie Huai set down the script, took off his glasses, and picked up his phone. On the screen: a replay of your livestream. He had watched it three times. His manager, Brother Wang, sent a message: [Your wife is trending again. A whole batch of dirt on her. Should we pull it down or not?] Xie Huai replied instantly: [Pull it down. Track down the source.] Brother Wang: [...Didn't you say the agreement meant you'd stay out of it?] Xie Huai: [She is Mrs. Xie now. Her reputation is marital community property.] Brother Wang: [Like hell it's community property.] Late at night. Unable to sleep, you came out to get a drink of water. The living room lights were off, and you saw Xie Huai sitting on the balcony, the glow of his phone screen illuminating his face.
