Chapter 569 A Down-on-his-luck Assistant Transforms into the Strongest Manager (25)
The two had a good relationship, and onlookers cast envious glances at them.
Of course, there was also a hint of doubt and curiosity in those eyes.
In general, it is easy for some unclear entanglements to occur between female agents and male artists.
Jiang Huaizhi was worried that these people would make wild guesses about his relationship with Jin Shu, so he took the initiative to explain.
"To me, Mr. Jin is like family. I wouldn't have the opportunity I have today without him."
Of course, I also want to thank everyone here. There were noodles for everyone, so I hope you won't mind and will all try my cooking.
Compared to before, the Jianghuai region is now much more generous and composed.
Jiang Huaizhi wasn't sure if his words had dispelled others' doubts.
Jin Shu noticed his concerns and patted him on the shoulder.
"Just do what you're supposed to do. If anyone talks nonsense, I'll handle it."
Jin Shu had paved the way, so Jiang Huaizhi just needed to stride forward.
During filming, a commercial vehicle drove into the village from outside.
The director had received advance notice, so when he saw the person getting out of the car, he didn't say much and simply handed the person a work badge.
"Sister Zhang told you before I came, right? I'm so sorry, but Sister Zhang felt really sorry for Gu Xing when she saw him bitten like that in the live stream, so she sent me here to temporarily act as his assistant and bring him some medicine."
The director nodded.
"Just don't disturb our filming schedule. We already had Gu Xing checked by a doctor this morning, and there's nothing seriously wrong, so don't worry."
"With the director taking care of us, we can rest assured."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the entire working group realized that not only Jiang Huaizhi, but also Gu Xing's assistant had arrived.
"Jin Shu, it's been a long time! I didn't expect to see you here!"
Jin Shu was reading a book when she heard a familiar voice and slowly looked up. She saw Zhao Yiran, wearing a white dress and a work badge, standing at the door and greeting her.
Thinking of the five million she had earned from her, Jin Shu gave her a genuine smile.
Unlike Zhao Yiran's fake smile, Jin Shu genuinely expressed her goodwill towards her.
While the celebrities were filming, Jin Shu happened to be free, so Zhao Yiran sat down next to her and asked her with a smile.
Are you still bothered by what happened last time?
Seeing that Jin Shu remained silent, Zhao Yiran continued.
"It's about the thing I asked you to help with last time, but I couldn't help you in the end."
Actually, I've been wanting to talk to you about this for a while now. I know you've been avoiding me, but I want to say that you don't need to avoid me. I know you've done your best, and it's not your fault that things didn't work out in the end.
Moreover, fate is a strange thing. I changed jobs and am now an agent at the company where Gu Xing works.
In that case, it's fortunate that the matter didn't go through, otherwise I would have become the company's scapegoat.
Zhao Yiran started by saying a lot, and Jin Shu slowly shifted her gaze from the book and silently looked at her.
"So, Jin Shu, don't think too much about it. I really don't blame you."
What are you saying?
Jin Shu's words caused Zhao Yiran's smile to freeze for a few seconds.
But she quickly smiled again.
"Forget it, if you don't want to talk about it, then don't. You can also pretend to forget about it, and we can continue to be good friends like before."
Jin Shu smiled, pursing her lips.
"OK."
Just then, the director team's voices came through the walkie-talkie.
"The morning's filming and live broadcast are over. The guests will have two hours to rest."
Even though it's a live stream, they don't live under the camera 24/7. They have two hours of free time every afternoon.
During this time, they can relax for a while.
When the time came, Gu Xing strode to the logistics team and saw Jin Shu standing there with the thermos cup in the distance. He couldn't help but go up and laugh at her.
"Still using that same old trick to fool people? You really do rely on the same old method; you treat everyone the same way."
Jin Shu looked at him with her cup in hand and said expressionlessly.
"What's it to you?"
At this moment, Jiang Huaizhi also came over. He had seen Gu Xing running straight towards his agent from a distance, which made him very anxious. He quickly dropped the fence he was installing and ran over.
"Sister Jin, what are you doing? What are you two talking about?"
Jin Shu bypassed Jiang Huaizhi and handed him the cup in her hand.
"Here, have some coffee."
Jiang Huai nodded, took it, and as soon as he opened it, the cool aroma of coffee wafted out.
"Thank you, Sister Jin."
Gu Xing smelled the aroma and laughed.
"You're just serving them iced coffee? That's so unprofessional. At the very least, you should make them your own jujube soup. After all, that's how you served your previous boss, wasn't it?"
Before Jin Shu could speak, Jiang Huaizhi frowned and stood in front of her, looking at Gu Xing with displeasure.
"You should be more polite! I have a good stomach, but I'm prone to water retention. What's wrong with Sister Jin giving me some iced coffee?"
"You're one of the artists that Sister Jin used to manage, right?"
If Jiang Huaizhi weren't a fool, he would have guessed the relationship between Gu Xing and Jin Shu by now.
At first, he was curious as to why Gu Xing was targeting him specifically.
Now he finally understood; it turned out this guy was just jealous and envious.
Jiang Huaizhi disliked getting into conflicts with people, especially with someone like Gu Xing, who was naturally short-tempered and easily angered.
"Sister Jin, let's go."
"You keep calling her 'Sister Jin,' what's your relationship with her?"
"What business is it of yours what our relationship is? Why do you always have to meddle in other people's business?"
Gu Xing waved his hand with a cold laugh.
"I'm just giving you a piece of advice: if someone gives you a little something, you'll think you're so important. But actually, in their eyes, you're no more than a kitten or a puppy. They don't take you seriously at all!"
Also, when choosing an agent, you should choose one with some ability, otherwise your path to fame will probably only end there.
After saying that, Gu Xing turned to leave, but after taking only two steps, he suddenly tripped over something and fell heavily onto the grass, taking a big bite of grass.
He stood there stunned for a long time before getting up and cursing.
Then he turned around angrily and glared at Jin Shu.
"Did you do this?!"
"Yeah, so what?"
"Jin Shu, you're really something! You've really mastered the art of turning your back on someone!"
Jin Shu looked down at him, her eyes quite cold.
"If you don't speak human language, then don't blame me for not treating you like a human being."
After saying that, Jin Shu turned and left. Jiang Huaizhi quickly followed. Before leaving, he looked back at Gu Xing, who was sitting on the ground with a livid face. The next second, Jiang Huaizhi smiled and showed him a set of big white teeth.
