Chapter 18 Is it possible to withhold pay? Director Sun is trying to curry favor.



Qu Jian'er shook her head: "I told you not to thank me. If you want to thank someone, thank your ancestors. Go back and pay more respects to them."

Director Sun nodded: "Definitely, definitely."

Director Liu couldn't take it anymore: "What kind of riddles are you talking about? I don't understand a word of it!"

"Don't interrupt!" Director Sun glanced at Chief Director Liu, then respectfully asked Qu Jian'er, "Teacher Qu, do you know why incense won't light?"

Director Liu was completely bewildered by what was said about him, and for a moment he forgot to retort to his childhood friend.

Qu Jian'er answered truthfully, "Yes, I know."

Director Sun didn't dare to directly question whether Qu Jian'er was behind it. On the contrary, even though he knew it was the person in front of him, he only wanted to figure out how to appease Qu Jian'er.

Director Liu asked, puzzled, "How did you know?"

Qu Jian'er rested her chin on her hand: "The resentment was too concentrated, which led to insufficient air pressure supply. The open flame couldn't be ignited because there was no oxygen. But I remember Director Liu said yesterday that he didn't need me."

They didn't even have time to exclaim how unscientific this science was.

Director Sun's eyes widened: "Old Liu, did you say that?"

Director Liu thought for a moment and nodded: "It seems like I did mention that before, what's wrong?"

Director Sun instinctively cursed, then changed the subject: "Are you a pig reincarnated?! Never mind, it's not your fault. You don't know how formidable Teacher Qu is."

Director Liu nearly choked on his breath, glaring at her and saying, "I haven't even asked you what kind of play this is? Why are you being so respectful to her, even calling her Teacher Qu?"

Director Sun, who actually wanted to call Master Qu, smiled at Qu Jian'er and said, "Teacher Qu, don't bother with that fool. See, could you lend a hand?"

Qu Jian'er refused outright: "I don't want to."

Director Sun was getting anxious, but he couldn't push him too hard.

Chen Ping, realizing the two weren't in that kind of relationship, immediately became even more impolite: "Such an arrogant tone, Qu Jian'er, who do you think you are?!"

Because he had no powerful connections, Chen Ping climbed to his current position entirely on his own. That's why he always despises those who take shortcuts, just like Qu Jian'er, who successfully used connections.

If Director Sun knew what he was thinking.

I'll definitely be tempted to yell: Can you please stop being so annoyed? Aren't you curious why I respect her?!

Qu Jian'er didn't hold back either, standing up to retort: ​​"A dung beetle sitting in a grand chair—what's with the airs? No one else has said a word, yet you're already so indignant."

Chen Ping was furious: "You..."

Director Sun interrupted him ruthlessly: "Say less, Chen Ping, how could you be so rude to Teacher Qu!"

Chen Ping choked, he was furious. But even in his anger, he knew he couldn't confront Director Sun directly, so he turned and left, his face contorted with rage.

Director Sun held up two fingers to Qu Jian'er and said with a smile, "Don't let him affect your mood. Please ask Teacher Qu for help. How about this number?"

(__)ノ|Others: Are you putting on a face-changing performance here? Please help me, what kind of help? Would you like some incense?

Qu Jian'er couldn't maintain her composure any longer; her eyes darted around mischievously: "How many zeros~"

Director Sun was unsure whether to give too little or too much, so he tentatively asked, "Would six zeros be okay?"

Adhering to the idea that even a small mosquito is still meat.

Qu Jian'er stood up and said solemnly, "Although it's a bit less, it's my duty to do it!"

She was so serious as if she had taken on some important mission, and so earnest as if she were not just after money.
