Chapter 36 [Changed] Su Yunruo's Assistant...
She was startled.
The myriad thoughts in my mind eventually coalesced into one idea.
My friend is a good friend of mine. How could I just watch her with her head covered in blood until midnight? What if the wound got infected and festered? That thing on her head is no small injury. Even with tissues pressed against it, it was still gushing blood.
Little Ou took his partner's hand and said, "Get up and come with me."
"No, I want to wait for the first concert to see the stars."
"Get up!" Xiao Ou raised his voice, forcibly dragging the person up. "Listen to me."
The girl burst into tears instantly, stamping her feet and saying urgently, "I've been looking forward to Xingxing's concert for so long."
Xiao Ou whispered in his friend's ear, "Don't talk, I'm an insider! I have a way to get you straight into the inner area."
This finally calmed his partner down.
Xiao Ou quickly led his companion to the roadside, pulled him in front of her, opened the door, and shoved him inside.
As soon as her companion got into the car, she suddenly cried out, "Ah!" before the sound could fully escape her lips. Xiao Ou quickly covered her mouth with his hand.
"Waaaaah"
"Shh, shh—" Xiao Ou hurriedly apologized to Su Yunruo, "I'm so sorry, Miss Su, my friend is injured. There should be medical staff inside. Could you please ask them to treat his wound?"
Su Yunruo was stunned for a moment, but quickly regained her smile, "Okay."
He paused for a moment.
"She's bleeding a lot, let's wipe her blood first."
"Aww, aww."
Xiao Ou turned the woman, who had turned into a wooden statue, over and used a tissue to wipe the blood from her head. The woman was terrified; she didn't even cry out in pain when her wound was touched, her eyes wide open as she stared at Su Yunruo.
The car was parked smoothly in the parking lot behind the stadium. Out of professional habit, Xiao Ou got out of the car first to check if there were any "dangerous people" around.
Su Yunruo got off the car from the other side.
"Wow, so high..." his companion exclaimed, his head covered in blood.
Xiao Ou quickly reached out and covered her mouth, "Don't say anything."
The man shook his head vigorously. "It's true, right? It's really Su Yunruo?"
"Really," Xiao Ou said in a low voice, "Calm down."
The staff member came out and spoke to her. Su Yunruo glanced back at the two of them, and the staff member nodded and walked towards them.
“My injured sister, come with me first. I’ll take you to the medical team to treat your wounds.”
Hearing what the staff member said, Xiao Ou felt relieved and let go of her partner, then ran after Su Yunruo.
"Miss Su, what brings you here today?"
“Zheng Chengcheng invited me here yesterday. He originally wanted me to be a guest, but I can’t sing, so I asked him for a few tickets.”
"..."
"What's the matter?"
"without."
Xiao Ou suddenly felt a little envious of Su Yunruo, who was friends with the group her idol belonged to, and was invited to all their concerts.
"Oh, right, I'm going to the backcourt. Do you want to go check on Lin Xingsen?"
Xiao Ou's eyes widened. "Is it okay?"
“Of course you can.” Su Yunruo walked forward. “You’ve always been too shy to ask Lin Xingsen for an autograph or a photo while you’re at work, but since you’re not working today, you’re allowed to be a fan.”
Xiao Ou felt a warmth in his heart.
Su Yunruo actually discovered it.
After being scolded by Lin Xingsen's agent during the photoshoot, she regretted not pinching Lin Xingsen when she got home, but she was more glad that she hadn't bothered him.
Using work as an excuse to chase after celebrities will not only annoy Lin Xingsen, but will also affect Su Yunruo.
Xiao Ou isn't stupid. After spending some time in the public relations department, she's gained some understanding of the industry. People working in this field should absolutely avoid getting involved in fan circles or chasing celebrities.
She was able to get into Youqian Entertainment as Su Yunruo's assistant thanks to her cousin's help and Su Yunruo's opportunity; otherwise, given her criminal record, it would have been impossible.
So Xiao Ou has been restraining herself and being very careful not to let her past be discovered.
Walking backstage at the stadium, I realized just how busy a concert can be. The corridors were full of staff running around, and they didn't even stop when they saw Su Yunruo, rushing off to handle their work.
The dressing room was at the very back. Space was limited, and the dressing room also served as a rest area. Su Yunruo knocked on the door, and when it opened, she saw the four little ones sitting in a row.
"Hello." Su Yunruo raised her hand to greet them, and turned around to greet the other guests as well, when she suddenly saw Zhou Kantian.
What a coincidence!
Su Yunruo pursed her lips, "What a coincidence."
Zhou Kantian is also going on stage as a guest today. He is wearing a sequined outfit and sitting on the sofa. His makeup is very heavy, and he looks a bit strange.
This eerie face was painted with heavy, dark eyeshadow. Its eyelids were slightly raised, glancing upwards with a wolf-like ferocity.
Xiao Ou was startled.
"Oh right! My assistant is a fan of FLY." Su Yunruo was completely unaffected and pulled Xiao Ou into her arms. "Could everyone please sign an autograph for her? Taking a photo with her would be even better."
Xiao Ou hadn't figured out how she, a fan of a single star, had suddenly become a fan of the whole group when Lin Xingsen uttered two words: "Impossible."
Xiao Ou was instantly terrified after being rejected by her idol, "Maybe...maybe not...".
Zheng Chengcheng glanced at Lin Xingsen and immediately said, "Of course! Xiao Lin is willing too, he's just being a bit arrogant."
Su Yunruo raised her phone. "Okay, I'll take that as a yes. Come on, Xiao Ou, stand with everyone, and I'll take a picture of you."
Xiao Ou was still hesitating when Zheng Chengcheng reached out and pulled her to the side. "So it turns out Xiao Ou is a fan of our group. No wonder you always secretly watched us before. But you were so patient! You didn't even come over to take a picture with us when we were recording the show before."
Xiao Ou forced an awkward smile, still thinking about Lin Xingsen's rejection.
"They were spying on Lin Xingsen, not you."
A sinister voice drifted over from the side.
Xiao Ou froze.
"Because Xiao Ou is having an existential crisis." Su Yunruo pointed at Lin Xingsen. "It's all because Xiao Lin is so unlikable in private. He doesn't talk to people and doesn't smile much. He seems really annoying. She's been observing him a lot to see if he's worthy of her affections, just to confirm her suspicions."
Lin Xingsen's small body suddenly froze.
Knock knock knock.
Someone knocked on the door and came in. "Teacher Su Yunruo, your assistant's injury has been bandaged up."
Xiao Ou's fangirl buddy followed the staff in, her heart pounding with nervousness at the prospect of seeing Su Yunruo.
Who knew that as soon as they entered, four real people came into view.
A realistic, animated son!
His companion's mouth dropped open instantly; he was completely stunned!
This is a scene that's even more exciting than a wedding ceremony!
The person she longed for, the one she would support even with a bloody wound, the one she wished she could hug and kiss the poster of, appeared before her.
It was as if a tsunami, hundreds of meters high, erupted behind her, knocking her over, tearing her apart, and shattering her bones into dust.
Xiao Ou reacted quickly, rushing to her partner's side and covering her mouth as she was about to scream.
"Pfft"
Zhou Kantian chuckled, "Su Yunruo, it's not good to bring fans into the backstage area. Your sister is still wearing Lin Xingsen's bracelet; she's a die-hard fan of Lin Xingsen."
Da Zi blinked, thinking to herself, "That's me." Xiao Ou gave her a hard tug, as if trying to pull her outside.
Of course, her friend wouldn't let it go; it was the first time she'd seen him in person, and she didn't want to leave!
The two of them stood by the door in this strange posture.
Su Yunruo: "Can't I help my girlfriend chase after celebrities? I can take a picture with them and get their autographs. It's not like I'm dating them."
Zhou Kantian's expression suddenly froze.
Su Yunruo suddenly walked towards Lin Xingsen, raised her hand and chopped him on the head, "Someone likes you, spends money, and stands outside in the cold wind for hours just to come in and catch a glimpse of you from afar. It's your honor."
Lin Xingsen glanced coldly at Su Yunruo, "I don't need it."
"Smack." Another slash. "Even the most kind-hearted person can't stand your cold and sarcastic treatment."
"I……"
Su Yunruo interrupted him, "You're clearly a good kid."
After being scolded, Lin Xingsen was suddenly forced to eat a piece of candy, which he couldn't handle at all.
She suddenly placed her hands on her knees, afraid to move. Her neck and face were powdered, so the redness wasn't visible, but her ears were bright red.
Let's take a group photo.
He lowered his head and stammered through the tunnel.
Xiao Ou was delighted, took her hand down from her partner's mouth, and quickly started fixing her hair.
Su Yunruo held up her phone. "Come on, let's all take a picture together. Today is a great opportunity, let's each take one. We can keep it as a souvenir when we get back."
Xiao Ou was taken aback, but quickly realized that Su Yunruo couldn't just say she only liked one of the people she brought in, otherwise the others would feel awkward.
Xiao Ou didn't mind, but quickly remembered that her partner didn't like the other two, so she hurriedly said, "No, no, you look too ugly now, let's go get our hair cut."
Xiao Ou quickly pulled her away, this time completely ignoring her refusal and pulling her along forcefully.
The dressing room immediately fell silent.
Several people looked at each other, but no one spoke for a long time.
Su Yunruo found a single sofa and sat down. "Oh, right! Just now, Xiaolin, your fans got into a fight with little Chengcheng outside."
As soon as she spoke, the other two little ones perked up their ears.
No one can resist watching the drama unfold.
“Because many people think you two don’t get along.” Su Yunruo shrugged. “Fans need to be properly guided. It’s exhausting for them to keep arguing like this.”
Zhou Kantian: "You talk as if you manage your fans very well."
"Of course! I advocate that my fans not become data workers, not spend money on in-game purchases, not be exploited, and can easily follow their idols while focusing on their own lives."
He held back for a long time, but couldn't hold back any longer, "So you just watch your fans get scolded every day?"
"It's better than losing money and getting hurt in the process."
"..."
Zhou Kantian's lips trembled, and he couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal for a long time.
The four children present did not dare to speak. They did not know what Su Yunruo was saying, but they vividly remembered what happened at the Su family tea house that day.
Fortunately, just as the atmosphere became dead silent, Xiao Ou pulled her star-chasing buddy into the room, interrupting Zhou Kantian's series of self-inflicted troubles.
Su Yunruo took photos of several people with her phone and even signed the poster. Xiao Ou and her partner were overjoyed.
Just as the filming was finished, the staff came over to call the four boys to prepare for the concert. Su Yunruo led Xiao Ou and her partner into the venue first.
After her initial excitement subsided, Xiao Ou began to wonder if it was inappropriate to use connections like this. Su Yunruo then pulled out three tickets to shut her up—they were given to her by Zheng Chengcheng.
The guest seats were absolutely amazing. Although they weren't in the first row, they were the least crowded guest section. You could see the people on stage clearly from up there without even needing binoculars.
The group sat down as if in a dream, and stayed there for a long, long time until other seats were gradually filled with people. The scene was bustling with noise, and colorful glow sticks representing the children lit up in the distance. Suddenly, they excitedly grabbed Xiao Ou's hand and exclaimed, "Xiao Ou! I see stars, and Zheng Chengcheng, and Zhou Kantian... and Su Yunruo too!"
Just as she was holding Xiao Ou's hand, it trembled, and Su Yunruo turned around and smiled at her.
Partner: "..."
Xiao Ou: "..."
"Really? Pinch me, am I dreaming?"
Xiao Ou sighed.
She understood all too well; the feeling of suddenly seeing so many celebrities was like a dream.
And it's my idol's concert! No need to queue or fight for tickets, I was taken directly backstage to take photos and get autographs from my idol, and I even sat in the VIP section. I never dared to dream of doing that.
Just as she was about to tell her partner to calm down, Su Yunruo suddenly spoke up, "It's a dream."
Xiao Ou said with a mournful face, "Miss Su, don't tease her, she's too excited right now."
"Oh." Su Yunruo nodded, took out her phone, and handed it to the two of them. "Look, the photos are all real. I'll send them to Xiao Ou. Xiao Ou, you can forward them to your friends."
Seeing the group photo, his friend finally calmed down; it was all real.
But Su Yunruo! Why did Su Yunruo bring Xiao Ou in?
Xiao Ou is just an employee of Orange Video. How could she be so familiar with Su Yunruo?
Partner: [Xiao Ou, why did Su Yunruo bring us in? My mind is all muddled right now, I can't understand anything.]
Xiao Ou knew she couldn't hide it any longer, so she sighed and said, "Actually, I'm Su Yunruo's assistant. Please don't tell anyone about this."
【ah? ? ? 】
[I just got the job recently and signed a confidentiality agreement so I can't talk about it.]
My friend didn't reply to my messages anymore.
Xiao Ou thought she should understand, so she relaxed and immersed herself in the concert.
Today's concert was full of buzz, with many celebrities making appearances, including Zhou Kantian and Fu Huai. The camera even panned to Su Yunruo in the guest seats, whose face on the big screen looked absolutely divine. Plus, everyone's been watching "Let's Travel Together" lately, so seeing most of the guests there was just too good to be true.
After the event, Su Yunruo even offered to take them home, but Xiao Ou felt that Su Yunruo had gone to too much trouble that day, so she got off the bus in the city center on the grounds that she wanted to continue shopping.
Standing in the bustling, noisy street, Da Zi seemed to still be in a daze from the excitement, remaining silent and dazed.
After Xiao Ou hailed a taxi, the two went home separately. Xiao Ou washed up and lay comfortably on the bed, praising FLY's concert to the other fans.
Just before going to bed, I suddenly received a message from my friend on WeChat.
[Xiao Ou, since you're by Su Yunruo's side, can you see stars all the time?]
Xiao Ou was taken aback, but it was indeed true, so she answered seriously: "I only saw it from afar when I went to record the show with Ms. Su. I'm a staff member; I can't interfere with their recording."
Is Su Yunruo always this nice to you?
Xiao Ou got excited when she talked about this, "She's simply amazing! She's always just as incredibly kind as she is today, and everyone else in the company is just as kind. Unlike my previous boss, they don't exploit workers. I heard that everyone will receive a new phone at the end of the year."
I'm so envious of you. You have such a great job and you get to see the stars every day.
It's not every day, but she really does try hard to control her fans' emotions.
Xiao Ou didn't know how to answer the question, so she posted a group photo to change the subject: "I'm so happy today! I got to take a photo with FLY."
...
#Su Yunruo's assistant haters#
According to a marketing account, Su Yunruo's assistant was actually a hater of hers and had repeatedly cursed Su Yunruo in online gossip groups.
Holy crap, that's terrifying.
[Su Yunruo is so pitiful; her assistant actually betrayed her.]
[Oh my god, those were really harsh words. They practically belittled Su Yunruo to the point of worthlessness. How can she even take a salary?]
[The fact that a hater can get a job as an assistant to a celebrity is a huge responsibility of the company.]
[I can't imagine how much private information she has about Su Yunruo. She's an assistant; she must be right beside Su Yunruo even when she's changing clothes. Wouldn't she take pictures of her secretly?]
Oh my god! That's terrifying.
Wait a minute, wasn't the Orange Video charity gala's red carpet event leaked by marketing accounts before? Could this assistant have been behind it?
[Damn, even non-Su Yunruo fans can't stand it anymore. If a hater were to infiltrate my idol's side as an assistant, I'd be furious.]
The thought that she might have secretly filmed Su Yunruo or had some of Su Yunruo's private secrets makes me want to kill her.
Xiao Ou saw the news on the subway in the morning, and it was like being struck by lightning.
Her past comments in gossip groups were specially compiled and screenshotted, including those where she joined other group members in criticizing Su Yunruo, and even those where she criticized Su Yunruo's fans.
Su Yunruo's scattered fans immediately lost their composure and became the first to charge forward, leading other fan groups who were just trying to muddy the waters to push the news to the top of the trending searches.
As Xiao Ou stepped out of the subway, before she even got close to the Youqian Entertainment building, she was suddenly startled by a deafening noise.
"Fire the assistant!"
"Fire the assistant!"
It turns out that many fans were so angry that they made banners and held signs and went to the entrance of Youqian Entertainment to demand the dismissal of Su Yunruo's anti-fan assistant.
Xiao Ou stopped at the subway entrance. Countless fans who had just arrived by subway bumped into her as they squeezed out of the station. They thought she was also there to apply for the dismissal of her assistant and "kindly" shared a printed leaflet and sign with her.
After a long, long time, when her hands were numb from the vibrations, she hurriedly picked up her phone and saw many missed calls.
Her cousin is one of them.
There's a PR person named C.
There's also Jiang Chunrou.
Jiang Chunrou: [Don't go to the company, come to Miss Su's house.]
Xiao Ou was suddenly filled with fear.
They found out.
Her past remarks were brought up again, which not only made her feel socially dead, but also overwhelmed her with immense guilt.
Xiao Ou now feels ashamed to face Jiang Chunrou and Su Yunruo, especially considering how kind everyone at Youqian Entertainment is to her, and how Su Yunruo even took her to a concert.
She felt both guilty and angry.
He opened his alternate account and messaged his friend, questioning her about why she had betrayed him, only to find that she had already deleted him.
I wanted to make a phone call, but then I realized that WeChat was the only way I could contact my friend.
Why?
Only her partner knew these things; she must have leaked them.
Xiao Ou squatted down helplessly, feeling even worse than when her laptop was stolen last time.
She didn't understand why her partner was doing this.
We've known each other for many years, we're practically good friends, and I haven't done anything to wrong her—
Xiao Ou buried her face in her knees, unable to hold back her tears.
It wasn't until someone patted her on the shoulder and asked her what was wrong that she raised her hand and vigorously wiped away the tears on her face.
That's not right.
Miss Su and Sister Jiang are still waiting for her.
The issue needs to be resolved.
Xiao Ou propped herself up on her knees, hailed a taxi, and kept telling herself to be strong and find a way to resolve the situation.
But the more I thought about it, the more desperate I became.
I don't know what to do.
Thinking back to how she and her friend used to chase after celebrities together, talked about Lin Xingsen, and even used Su Yunruo's connections to meet their idol, why would she...
I have severe chest pain and my mind is in a mess.
Xiao Ou began to fear her phone; seeing even a single word of the insults directed at her made it difficult to breathe.
"Little girl, we've arrived."
"Little girl?"
Xiao Ou was pulled back to her senses by the driver. She nodded and reached out to open the car door, but then she remembered that she was about to see Su Yunruo and Jiang Chunrou, and the look in their eyes after the notebook incident, so she let go of the door.
"Little girl?"
The driver called out again, and Xiao Ou was reminded of the words Su Yunruo had used to comfort her last time.
She suddenly found the courage to open the door and get out of the car.
That's all in the past. She did have some misunderstandings about Ms. Su before, but she has changed her mind since then. She likes Ms. Su, likes the company, and likes her job.
Regardless, an apology should be issued for what happened in the past.
Then try your best to get forgiveness.
Xiao Ou took a deep breath and mustered her courage to enter the elevator.
In the span of ten seconds, she became increasingly uneasy and started to have wild thoughts. How would Miss Su feel seeing this? Would she feel as bad as if she had been betrayed by her partner?
I kept comforting myself, thinking that Miss Su was a very good person and that she would forgive me.
bite--
The elevator rang, and Xiao Ou stepped into the house she had visited countless times before.
This place used to be sunny, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the river. Su Yunruo would sit at the bar, either pouring the auntie's newly developed vegetable juice for them or fiddling with some little gadgets. When she saw her, she would jump up and wave, "Little Ou baby is here? Chunrou, come over a bit, make room for me."
"You're here?"
Xiao Ou only saw Jiang Chunrou and didn't hear Su Yunruo's voice. She had a bad feeling and forced a smile. "Sister Jiang."
"Come."
Xiao Ou obediently went into the house.
After taking only a few steps, she hesitated again.
"Come this way."
Xiao Ou couldn't move her feet, but she shifted her gaze over there.
The weather was getting cooler, and without sunshine, the room was gloomy and dark. Jiang Chunrou was sitting on Su Yunruo's sofa, where there were usually fresh flowers, but now there was only a stack of blue documents.
"Little Ou?"
"Sister Jiang... Sister Jiang".
"You should have seen the news."
"..." Xiao Ou nodded.
Jiang Chunrou opened the blue folder. "This is the confidentiality agreement you signed when you joined the company. I need to explain the terms inside to you."
Xiao Ou shuddered, a chill running down his spine.
Jiang Chunrou's expression remained unchanged. "There are probably many complicated reasons for this, and it may not be what you expected, but things have turned out this way, and you will not pass your probation period. Out of humanitarian considerations and for your cousin's sake, the company will not pursue your past actions, but only requires you to keep your work during this period confidential as stipulated in the agreement."
Xiao Ou opened her mouth, but her throat felt like it was being scraped by a knife, and she couldn't make a sound.
Jiang Chunrou: "This is the best solution at present."
“I was deceived before, I didn’t…” Xiao Ou’s nose suddenly stung with tears, “I really didn’t mean to.”
"Aren't you going to ask how Miss Su is doing?"
Xiao Ou suddenly froze.
She opened her mouth and took a deep breath, "Miss Su, how... how is she?"
Her nose stung again. "Is she sad?"
“She’s fine.” Jiang Chunrou turned another page of the confidentiality agreement. “But I’m making an exception. Considering that this matter might not have been orchestrated by you, I don’t plan to pursue it further.”
"I……"
"She said you did a great job with that, Su Su, and that you should keep working hard no matter who you're with in the future."
