Chapter 276: Going For Wool and Coming Home Shorn

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The taxi stopped at the entrance of her company. It was sunny outside, but An Jia felt empty and uncomfortable.

Before she could figure out where this feeling came from, she entered Brother Li’s office and was scolded by him.

An Jia stood at the door with a tense body. She did not dare to move even though a pile of doc.u.ments had fallen on her. After Brother Li scolded her for a while, she saw that his angry expression did not look good.

“You’re quite bold to spread rumors about Wulin Universe.” Brother Li’s emotionless voice sounded beside her.

An Jia’s face instantly turned pale. She did not know how Brother Li knew about this, but her mouth was faster than her brain. She wanted to explain, but Brother Li, who had expected this, stopped her.

“You didn’t have much popularity when you first entered the company, but you know how to spread rumors.” As if he knew what she was thinking, Brother Li directly threw a few photos in front of An Jia.

There was a hint of arrogance in his words. Coupled with the unequal status of the two of them, An Jia immediately felt pressured.

An Jia picked it up and looked at it a few times. Her heart almost stopped.

In the beginning, she did not want anyone to find out what she had done, so she borrowed an account from someone she knew in the company. In the end, after Wulin Universe was broadcasted, there were many good reviews, so the post she posted was scolded badly.

There were even people who directly dug up her company from this account. Thus, many people followed the trail and scolded her company too.

“…” The more An Jia looked at it, the more afraid she became.

She had never thought that what she had done would cause the company to suffer so much losses. Her guilty conscience from doing the bad deeds deepened, and she even felt that her status was on the verge of collapse.

She finally knew what the bad feeling in her heart was.

Qian Anjia had just taken a look at the company’s loss. Just a fraction of it was more than several months of her pay. Now that it was traced back to her, her ending would be no different from death.

Looking at Brother Li’s dark expression, An Jia’s limited intelligence was displayed vividly.

She took the initiative to say ingratiatingly, “Brother Li, I know I was wrong. It’s all my fault for causing losses to the company this time. You’re a magnanimous person…”

An Jia braced herself and said good things about Brother Li. She almost used all the words she could think of.

She only had this one job now. As she couldn’t count on her family, she had to keep her only source of income.

All jealousy and injustice were thrown to the back of her mind and the flattering smile on An Jia’s face was very similar to those lackeys in television dramas.

“It’s a good thing to admit your mistake and change.” Due to the fact that she had admitted her mistake, Brother Li vaguely had the intention to relent.

An Jia’s heart relaxed. She thought that she had been let off this time. Then, just as she was about to heave a sigh of relief, she heard Brother Li continue.

Brother Li pushed a doc.u.ment in front of her. “But you caused trouble this time. The higher-ups have said that you can atone for your sins.”

An Jia followed Brother Li’s signal and reached out to open the doc.u.ment.

“As long as you complete this job, it will make up for the company’s losses this time,” Brother Li said again.

It sounded easy, but according to the days An Jia and Brother Li had spent together, he would definitely not let her off just like that.

An Jia frowned slightly and slowly opened the doc.u.ment in her hand.

It was a drama. She did not know the director’s name at all. An Jia skipped through the complicated parts and went straight to the point.

The role she was going to play was of a supporting actress. When she saw that there were many scenes, An Jia’s mood jumped. However, when she looked down, the smile on her face froze.

She couldn’t accept it.

“Brother Li, this…” An Jia said reluctantly.

She instinctively wanted to reject this job, but she raised her head to look at Brother Li. The other party’s cold expression was clear, and she swallowed the words she wanted to say.

Of course, she could refuse, but the result was something that she could not afford.

Seeing that she was silent, Brother Li smiled. “As long as you’re obedient, 1 can use resources to give you another script after this drama is filmed.”

At this point, An Jia knew that she could only agree. She nodded randomly and signed her name before fleeing from Brother Li’s office.

Whether the benefits Brother Li promised were real or not was no longer important. An Jia knew that she only had one choice. Although the two of them seemed to be negotiating, it was clear that they were not of equal status.

During work, she did not have the right to make decisions and had to listen to Brother Li.

The rumor was left unsettled just like that. An Nuo was busy with school and acting, so Murong Qiao naturally wouldn’t pay attention to such a small matter.

Recently, as Huo Yichen’s injuries gradually recovered and could move around, Murong Qiao often went to the hospital to see him.

“Do you want to try the soup 1 made?” Murong Qiao placed the bento next to him.

Recalling the “care” that her Big Brothers had given her when she was injured last time, Murong Qiao decided to make bone soup for Huo Yichen.

Huo Yichen was naturally happy to drink it. “Okay.”

He nodded and reached for the thermal cup. He opened it and smelled a fragrance.

Murong Qiao stared at Huo Yichen’s actions and saw his well-defined, slender, and fair fingers picking up a spoon and slowly scooping the soup into his mouth. Deep down she wished that she was the one feeding the soup.

Unfortunately, this was the hospital and Murong Zheng was ever present, so Murong Qiao gave up on this idea.

After all, Murong Zheng had found out that she was dating Huo Yichen. He had only agreed not to tell Big Brother when she begged him last time, but Murong Qiao didn’t dare to be too impudent.

“It’s delicious.” Huo Yichen finished the soup.

He tidied up the lunch box again and put it aside. His admiring tone was sincere, and his voice was pleasant, making Murong Qiao blush slightly.

She coughed lightly, wanting to ease the itch in her heart. However, before the itch faded, she felt the back of her hand on the side of the blanket enveloped by a warm and dry palm.

Murong Qiao looked up and met Huo Yichen’s smiling eyes.

Their intertwined hands were hidden under the blanket, so if the others weren’t so close, they wouldn’t be able to tell.

Murong Qiao smiled. “Aren’t you in a hurry to revise?”

Her heart was filled with sweetness and excitement. After all, there were many people coming and going outside the ward. Coupled with the fact that she did not know when her second brother, Murong Zheng, would appear, holding hands was very thrilling to her.

“The exams are approaching but I’ve revised everything I need to revise.” He did not sound worried at all.

If it were anyone else, Murong Qiao would have thought that they had given up on revising. However, when Huo Yichen said the same thing, he sounded inexplicably confident.

Normally, Murong Qiao would talk about the interesting things she had encountered in school or in the company, but today was different. It was the day when Huo Yichen needed to change his dressing.

“Bed 1, prepare to change the dressing,” a nurse came over to inform him.

It was rare for them to spend time together, but Murong Qiao didn’t dare to have any “complaints” when the nurse interrupted them.

As for the reason…

She glanced at Murong Zheng, who was standing at the door of the ward. “I still have cla.s.s in the afternoon, so I’ll leave first, Second Brother.”

Murong Zheng’s calm gaze swept across her body. He responded with a cold “Mm” before turning his gaze to Huo Yichen.

That gaze gave Murong Qiao a strange feeling, as if the owner of the gaze was up to no good.

Murong Zheng was such a good person.. He shouldn’t… right?
