Xiao Hong walked home angrily. She didn't know that her cousin could be so cruel to her. However, she didn't hate the director much now. Instead, she felt that Jiang Shiwan was the culprit who caused this whole thing.
If Jiang Shiwan hadn't had such a volatile temper, she wouldn't have resigned from her job, this whole thing wouldn't have happened, and the director wouldn't have hit her. Xiao Hong felt humiliated whenever she thought about the sound of the director hitting her. She went home, sat on the sofa, and felt aggrieved, wanting to cry.
Just then, Xiao Hong's phone rang. She didn't want to answer it, but she was afraid that someone might be calling her for something, so she took out her phone and saw that it was the director calling. She was surprised to see that it was the director calling, because if the director was calling her, it must be something important. Was he calling about what had just happened? Xiao Hong was happy when she thought of this.
Instead of the director apologizing, she heard words that made her even more aggrieved when she answered the phone: "Xiao Hong, do you know what you're doing! You come back right now and apologize to Jiang Shiwan. Do you think you can get away with anything by going out? No matter what, you have to apologize to Jiang Shiwan!"
When Xiao Hong heard the director say this, she opened her mouth slightly in surprise, and then said to the director with a somewhat aggrieved tone, "Uncle, why are you like this? Don't you want to ask me why I argued with Jiang Shiwan? If she hadn't gone too far, I wouldn't have argued with her. You're blaming me without even knowing the facts."
The director didn't know what had happened between Xiao Hong and Jiang Shiwan, but he now knew that if Xiao Hong didn't apologize to Jiang Shiwan, losing her job would be a minor issue, but paying the breach of contract penalty would be more expensive than selling Xiao Hong herself. However, he also didn't know exactly what had happened between Xiao Hong and Jiang Shiwan.
So he asked Xiao Hong over the phone, "What exactly happened between you and her? You deserve to treat her like this. Didn't I tell you before not to have any conflicts with her?"
When Xiao Hong heard her uncle ask her about this, she said with a wronged tone, "This is all because of Jiang Shiwan's bad temper. She saw the news about Fei Yiming and Jiang Hua herself, but she still got angry at me. I don't even want to talk to her anymore. She got angry when I said I was going to resign, but I didn't do anything too outrageous to her."
After hearing the whole story, the director realized that Jiang Shiwan was being unreasonable and there was nothing he could do. Hearing Xiao Hong say this, he sighed helplessly on the other end of the phone, and Xiao Hong heard it too.
Just as she was about to ask why the director was sighing, he began to speak: "My dear niece, even if it wasn't your fault, there's nothing we can do. Now you can only go and apologize to Jiang Shiwan and go back to be her assistant. You can't afford to pay those breach of contract fees, so that's the only option now."
Hearing the director's voice, Xiao Hong's heart sank. Did she have to go back to Jiang Shiwan's side as an assistant again? But she didn't want to. With a mournful face, she looked at her uncle and said sadly, "Do I really have to go back? There's no other way, but if I go back, who knows what Jiang Shiwan will do to me? Can't I not go back?"
Actually, the director really wanted to say that it was fine if she didn't want to go back, as long as she could pay the penalty for breach of contract. But he held back and patiently explained to Xiao Hong, "My dear niece, it's impossible for you not to go back. I can't even afford to pay the penalty, let alone you. So, my dear niece, you should just go back and continue being Jiang Shiwan's assistant. It's better than going bankrupt."
Hearing the director's words, Xiao Hong knew in her heart that she had no choice but to go back this time. After hanging up the phone, she returned to her room, wondering what she should do if she went to the film set the next day. The next day, Xiao Hong got up very early. It could be said that Xiao Hong hadn't slept all night because she kept thinking about how Jiang Shiwan would treat her.
When she arrived at the film set, she did the same work as before. As soon as Jiang Shiwan arrived, she saw Xiao Hong busy around her. She looked at Xiao Hong's behavior with disdain, but said nothing on the surface. However, it is likely that Xiao Hong's life will not be easy in the future, because Jiang Shiwan already resented her.
Jiang Shiwan had been filming all day and felt her feet were a little sore. She was about to ask someone to pour her some hot water to soak her feet when she suddenly remembered that Xiao Hong had returned to her side.
She felt that the current situation was perfect for Xiao Hong to do this, so she shouted outside, "Xiao Hong, my feet are sore, could you pour me some hot water? I told you I needed hot water to soak my feet, hurry up, my feet are sore!"
Xiao Hong heard Jiang Shiwan's voice from outside. She looked at Jiang Shiwan inside and was a little angry. She didn't know how many things Jiang Shiwan had asked her to do since she came back. Some of them were meaningless tasks. Several times, Xiao Hong felt that she was the one being bullied in other people's eyes.
However, as Jiang Shiwan's assistant, she had to do whatever Jiang Shiwan asked her to do, so she had no choice but to go and get some hot water. But the hot water was still very hot, and the cold water could only be found at Jiang Shiwan's place, so Xiao Hong could only carry a plate of hot water to Jiang Shiwan's room.
However, Jiang Shiwan didn't open the door when Xiao Hong knocked. Jiang Shiwan was looking at her phone when Xiao Hong knocked, and although opening the door would have been easy, she didn't intend to because it was Xiao Hong who had knocked. Seeing that no one answered, Xiao Hong had no choice but to put the hot water on the floor and then open the door herself.
She opened the door and saw Jiang Shiwan sitting not far away, playing on her phone. She was about to yell at her, but she suppressed her emotions and slowly walked over to Jiang Shiwan, intending to put her phone down. However, Jiang Shiwan saw Xiao Hong holding a steaming bowl of water and had a wicked idea.
She saw Xiao Hong put the water down, and before Xiao Hong's hand left the basin, she deliberately stretched her foot forward and knocked the water over. However, because Xiao Hong's hand was still there, Xiao Hong's hand was also scalded.
