Luosang’s heart missed a beat.
What she feared would happen just did. However, she didn’t think that would affect Supervisor Yuan.
“Can you air the series if you replace my voice?” she asked.
“Air my ass!” Supervisor Yuan’s angry voice was heard as he continued yelling, “you think I haven’t thought about that? I asked them but got no response. That means no! And it’s because of you. Luosang, I kindly helped you for Professor Ma’s sake, and I recommended you to Director Hong. You need to fix this.”
Luosang rubbed her forehead, and didn’t know what to say.
Hearing no response from her, Supervisor Yuan continued with a begging tone, “Luosang, I haven’t known you for a long time, but I know you’re a good girl. I don’t want to bring you troubles, but my team put so much effort in for this online series. Our director and I have mortgaged all our properties and invested all our money in it. If it can’t be aired, then we’ll lose everything. We both have parents and children who need our support. Can you please think of us? And think of the leading actresses have just started their careers. They all put their hearts and souls into this series. We can’t afford to lose it, or else some of us might even die.”
“…Alright, I’ll try to fix the problem. Don’t worry,” said Luosang with a dry voice.
She hadn’t known Supervisor Yuan for long, but both he and the director were quite nice to her when she worked together with them. They never pulled ranks on her, and helped her a lot. So, she couldn’t let herself bring them into troubles.
Zhong Yi was so cruel. She knew how to target Luosang’s weakness.
“I’m sorry,” sighed Supervisor Yuan.
“I’m the one who should be sorry,” said Luosang.
After hanging up the phone, she sat in her dorm in confusion.
She spent a long time thinking, then tried to dial Zhong Yi’s old number. Surprisingly, her call was answered.
“…Zhong Yi, it’s me,” said Luosang.
“Ah, you,” Zhong Yi’s careless voice was heard from the phone, “What do you want? Make it quick. I’m busy.”
“Supervisor Yuan’s online series…” Luosang closed her eyes to calm herself down, then said, “Just tell me, what can I do to make you stop troubling him?”
“You were quite arrogant earlier, weren’t you?” said Zhong Yi scornfully, “and you implied that I’m a fake phoenix.”
“Since you want so much to be a phoenix, how about I admit that you’re a genuine phoenix? But phoenix is an animal, so are you sure you want to be one?” said Luosang.
For some reason, Zhong Yi didn’t know how to continue this conversation. “Enough, I don’t have time to play word games with you. But since we were good friends, I don’t want to go too far. Earlier, I saw that you were shamelessly looking for a job. So how about this, I’m in need of an assistant. As long as you take this job offer, I won’t make trouble for Supervisor Yuan,” she said.
“You want me to be your assistant so you can laugh at me and insult me as much as you want, right?” said Luosang. She figured out what Zhong Yi wanted.
Zhong Yi didn’t try to hide her real purpose and said, “It’ll feel great to see the proud Luosang follow my orders. If Jingxi sees it, he’ll be happy too.”
Luosang clenched her teeth. She remained silent for a while, then said, “Do you two need to see shrinks? Zhong Yi, have I ever done anything that hurt you? Have I ever pulled rank on you or insulted you in some way? Why do you have to take delight in humiliating me? You two have everything now. You’re a big star, he took my family business, and you both became billionaires. What else do you want? Why can’t you just leave me alone? I should be coming after you.”
Zhong Yi chuckled and said, “Yeah sure, you can think that way. We want to make fun of you because it’s fun. I’m filming a movie in Xia City right now, so you can come work the day after tomorrow. Jian Fei will contact you. If you don’t show up, I think your college will soon find out that you’re Xu Zhengxuan’s daughter. I doubt you’ll be able to continue studying then.”
