After the banquet, Jiang Mianmian made a decisive move and immediately asked Lu Ran to retrieve all of Xia Zhi's information and send it to You Huan.
Lu Ran was slightly drunk, and increasingly resembled Huo Junyang. While typing on the keyboard, she opened her big, watery eyes and put on a pitiful expression: "No way, sister? You don't want Sister You Huan to deal with her, do you?"
"Sister, you've always been so kind!"
"That move was absolutely cruel!"
Jiang Mianmian stared in disbelief, then grimaced and made a crying face.
But as soon as Lu Ran finished speaking, she pressed the send button, a sly smile like that of a little fox on her lips.
"Sis, what do you think You Huan will do to her?"
Jiang Mianmian chuckled and mimicked her tone, saying, "Ranran, you've become naughty too! How can you say 'deal with'? Your sister You Huan just needs an assistant!"
The two sisters finally couldn't hold back and hugged each other, bursting into laughter.
The next day, Xia Zhi angrily knocked on Jiang Mianmian's office door.
"Mianmian, what's going on? Why were I transferred to You Huan's side?!"
Jiang Mianmian was looking at the design drawings and didn't even look up.
Sitting opposite her, Lu Ran looked at Xia Zhi with a half-smile and said coldly, "Miss Xia, who are you talking to?"
Xia Zhi was taken aback, then blurted out, "Mianmian!"
"Are you kidding me?" Lu Ran stared at her. "My sister is your boss, and you're just an intern. How dare you address your boss by his first name?"
Xia Zhi pouted and remained silent.
Then she looked at Jiang Mianmian and called out pitifully, "Mianmian..."
Jiang Mianmian finally raised her head, her dark eyes devoid of any emotion, looking at her as if she were a stranger.
"Mianmian, your sister may have some misunderstandings about me."
“I think my sister is right.” Jiang Mianmian smiled coldly. “We used to be best friends and classmates, and I acknowledge that. But no matter how good our personal relationship is, this is a company, and all our actions must be in accordance with the company’s rules and regulations!”
"you……"
“I’m your boss. Even if you don’t know my position, you should at least call me ‘Ms. Jiang’!”
"When Xia Yubing was here before, did you call her 'Auntie'? Didn't you always call her 'Manager Xia' when you saw her?"
"Ha, you're so respectful to Xia Yubing, but you're so casual with me?" Jiang Mianmian walked over and gently patted her shoulder. "Intern Xia, this is a major taboo in the workplace. I hope you'll take this as a warning!"
Xia Zhi's face was pale, and she clenched her fists tightly.
She thought that after revealing her relationship with Wen Jie last time, Jiang Mianmian would be more cautious. After all, Wen Jie was Huo Junyu's most valued friend, and she was Wen Jie's lover.
However, to everyone's surprise, Jiang Mianmian didn't fall for it at all!
Xia Zhi took a deep breath and forced a smile.
"Mianmian," she persisted, "Wen Jie... invited me to lunch. Haha, he often comes to see me at lunchtime. If I really become You Huan's assistant, my lunch break definitely won't be so free..."
“Now that you’re working, where do you get so much freedom?” Jiang Mianmian crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows. “Xia Zhi, if Attorney Wen cares about you, he’ll make time for you no matter how busy you are!”
“Exactly!” Lu Ran smiled as well. “Sister, has the world changed? This is the first time I’ve ever seen someone pick and choose a job!”
"you……"
Xia Zhi was speechless and could only accept the arrangement.
"Your work with You Huan won't be too tiring for you," Jiang Mianmian chuckled. "You just need to be perceptive and anticipate things in advance to be a qualified assistant."
"Okay, I understand," Xia Zhi replied in a muffled voice.
A few days later she went to You Huan's management team.
However, she was not welcomed by Jackie on her first day. Even the little assistant who made a mistake could order her around.
You Huan was waiting on set, and she held an umbrella for her. The midday sun was scorching hot, making it extremely uncomfortable.
As soon as her umbrella tilted to one side, Jackie snapped at her, "Hey, what are you trying to do?! You're letting my Huanhuan get sunburned like that! If my baby gets tanned and I lose my sunscreen endorsement, can you afford to pay for the tens of millions in losses?!"
Xia Zhi could only swallow her anger and cover You Huan with the umbrella, while she herself was roasted in the sun.
The last time I was exposed to such intense sunlight was back in Southeast Asia, when I couldn't even get into the Grand Palace.
Both of these incidents were related to Jiang Mianmian...
Xia Zhi bit her lip, a deep hatred flashing in her eyes.
At that moment, Wen Jie appeared not far from the film set.
Just a second ago, You Huan was idly scrolling through her phone, but the next second she sat up straight, her eyes wide open, staring intently at the elegant and tall figure.
Xia Zhi smiled, her voice tinged with smugness.
"Miss You, my boyfriend is here."
You Huan's face darkened.
Xia Zhi became even more smug: "My boyfriend came to see me!"
You Huan felt as if a volcano was rising in her heart, about to erupt.
However, she was also a little sad.
Does Wen Jie really like this woman?
That's probably unlikely.
How could his judgment be so bad...?
However, the truth is that Wen Jie hesitated for a moment, then strode over. He had a gentle smile on his face, and his gaze followed them.
You Huan thought he was looking at Xia Zhi.
Xia Zhi waved to him, but his reaction didn't seem very enthusiastic.
A thought suddenly popped into You Huan's mind—Was Wen Jie looking at her?
The moment the idea popped into her head, she ruthlessly suppressed it. She felt she was probably bewitched; lately, instead of showing affection for everything connected to her, she was feeling quite self-satisfied.
Just then, Wen Jie stopped in front of her. Xia Zhi cheered and went to hug him, but Wen Jie grabbed her wrist and pushed her aside.
Xia Zhi was taken aback. "Wen Jie, what... what are you doing?"
Wen Jie smiled but remained silent.
He didn't look at Xia Zhi; the only figure in his eyes was You Huan.
You Huan lowered her head and pretended to read the script, but she couldn't concentrate on a single word; her heart was pounding wildly.
"Uh... me." Wen Jie scratched his head, wanting to say something but not knowing what to say.
Even a lawyer who makes a living with his words has a day when he can't speak properly.
"I...I brought you something, something," Wen Jie finally stammered. "Here, have a taste!"
You Huan was taken aback.
Wen Jie handed her a very exquisite little food box. She gently opened it and found a piece of blueberry cheese inside!
"You..." You Huan exclaimed in surprise, "How did you know I like to eat this?"
Wen Jie's heart was pounding. He dared not say that he had inquired from many sources and observed for a long time, nor did he dare say that this blueberry cheesecake was his only successful work after countless failures.
He just smiled faintly and said in the calmest tone, "I... I stumbled upon this by accident. So you like it? Heh... What a coincidence!"
