“Jennie.” Mino looked at the girl in the painting and sighed. He reached out and caressed her exquisite and beautiful face. “What should I do with you? I can’t bear to give up on you, but I’ve lost the right to have you now. You’re very happy with him, and he has the ability to give you happiness. Even if I don’t care about anything and snatch you back, how can I defeat him?
“I’ve always been conceited, but if my opponent is him…
“So, should I give up on you?”
He muttered to himself as he looked at the girl in the painting. Although he said that he was giving up, his eyes were filled with unwillingness. “But I’m really unwilling to give up just like that. I don’t even have a chance to fight for it, and you’re already someone else’s. Isn’t God a little cruel to me?
“If I’m destined to never have you, why would I be attracted to you?”
Mino never thought that he would be trapped by love one day.
He couldn’t ask for anything.
It turned out that not being able to ask for it was so painful.
Even if he wanted to do something for her, he had to do it differently, afraid that she would find out.
Because once she found out, she would definitely reject it.
Hence, he didn’t give her the Palace Style endorsement this time. Instead, he informed a friend and changed it to a company that wouldn’t arouse her suspicion.
Even so, he was still afraid that she would guess it.
Hence, they didn’t dare to give her the endorsement of a first-tier product. Instead, they especially got someone to give her a second-tier skincare product.
As expected, she didn’t suspect anything and happily signed the contract.
Mino didn’t even dare to pay her too much. He was afraid that she would be suspicious, so he gave it to her at the market price.
Although Jennie had signed this endorsement, Mino felt that he hadn’t given her enough.
He wanted to treat her well.
He wanted to give her everything he had.
But he knew that he couldn’t be too anxious, or he would only scare her.
Hence, no matter how anxious he was, he could only bear with it.
“Young Master.”
Someone knocked on the door and stood outside.
Mino looked at the person knocking on the door and narrowed his eyes. He closed the drawing board and turned around. “What is it?”
The person at the door lowered her head and said respectfully, “Madam said that Miss An has returned from overseas. She set a welcome banquet for Miss An tonight and asked the Young Master to come home for dinner.”
“Miss An?” Mino frowned. He obviously didn’t know who she was.
The person outside could tell that he was puzzled. She explained, “It’s Miss An Ya—Young Master’s second uncle’s only daughter. Young Master, don’t you remember? Miss An Ya stayed in the Song family for half a year. Back then, she always liked to follow Young Master. Young Master, you gave her a nickname. You called her Pest.”
Mino slowly recalled.
He had such a cousin.
But the two of them didn’t meet often. Besides the six months they spent together, they rarely saw each other.
Mino was indifferent.
He had always been indifferent towards his parents.
Not to mention his cousins.
He had no feelings for this cousin.
But he still nodded. “Mm, I’ll go back tonight.”
He hadn’t returned to the Song family for a while.
He heard that Madam Song wasn’t feeling well recently, so he planned to go back for a visit in the next two days.
As for his cousin, he wasn’t interested at all.
The subordinate was about to leave.
“Wait.”
Mino suddenly stopped him.
He immediately stopped in his tracks. “Young Master, do you have any other instructions?”
Mino narrowed his eyes and looked at the scorching sun outside. After a few seconds of silence, he said, “Do something for me.”
…
City F.
Jennie had just finished filming a scene under the sun, and she was sweating from the heat.
Sweat rolled down her forehead, and her face was a little red.
The afternoon was the hottest.
They had to shoot an outdoor scene, so no matter how hot it was, they still stood under the sun for a long time.
Thankfully, Jennie wasn’t weak.
Otherwise, she might have a heat stroke.
It was especially hot today.
Taehyung was also afraid that the actors would get heatstroke if the filming took too long. Hence, after Jennie and Qin Han finished another scene, he called for a half an hour break.
Jennie wiped her sweat and walked to the nanny van.
Just as she took a bottle of water from Nana, she saw the crew’s logistics staff carrying a few large boxes over.
They carried the box over and opened it.
The boxes were filled with fruits, iced desserts, and cold storage boxes. When they were opened, they still emitted cold air.
“Wow, what’s this? Who made afternoon tea?”
“Gosh, it’s so hot. I was just thinking of drinking something cold.”
“Wow, Director Kim, is this your afternoon tea?”
“These are all afternoon teas from Imperial Court Hotel. It’s not cheap. Director Kim, you’re too good to us.”
The group of actors was sweating from the heat. Their eyes lit up when they saw the boxes of frozen food.
Taehyung stood at the side, looking confused.
“I didn’t order this. Who was so generous as to treat the entire crew to afternoon tea?”
Taehyung turned to look at Jennie.
He was so generous and invited the entire crew for no reason. It was very similar to someone’s style.
“Isn’t it Director Kim? Who is it?”
“No matter who it is, thank you first. Wow, I love this strawberry milkshake. Can I have one?”
Everyone else was busy getting their afternoon tea.
“Wow, someone ordered afternoon tea. Jennie, I’ll get one for you.”
The crew would occasionally order afternoon tea.
But they weren’t usually ordered from Imperial Court.
Imperial Court was one of the best, largest, and most expensive hotels in F City.
They had more than a thousand customers.
Even if an artiste’s income was high, very few would treat so many people to such an expensive afternoon tea.
After all, there were hundreds of people in the crew. It was a huge sum to hire the entire crew.
Just like Taehyung, everyone guessed that the person treating them must be Jennie’s rich boyfriend.
Everyone knew what Jennie was like now, so many of them thanked her after taking the gifts.
“Jennie, thank your boyfriend for treating us to afternoon tea.”
“Yes, Jennie, your boyfriend is so nice. He often treats us to afternoon tea. He’s really spending too much.”
“Jennie, your boyfriend treats you so well. You must be very happy.”
“Jennie’s boyfriend is handsome and rich, and he treats her so well. We’re so envious.”
Jennie was the one being praised.
Everyone knew that she had a rich and handsome boyfriend who liked and cared about her.
They also heard that she was Taehyung’s cousin. Taehyung took good care of her on set and seemed to value her.
No one dared to ostracize her as they did in the beginning.
Moreover, even people who had misunderstandings about her had a rough understanding of her now.
Their prejudice against her was gone.
Moreover, although some people were unhappy that Jennie was a string-puller, Jennie wasn’t a pretty face with no acting skills. Even if they weren’t convinced at the start, they had nothing to say after seeing her acting.
Jennie was holding a glass of iced drink that Nana had brought for her. As she listened to the crowd thank her, she sent Lisa a WeChat message: [You bought afternoon tea for our crew?]
After about a minute, Lisa replied.
Lisa: [? Did someone buy your crew afternoon tea? It wasn’t me.]
Jennie was stunned. [It wasn’t you?]
Lisa: [Mm, it wasn’t me.]
Jennie asked casually, but Lisa said it wasn’t him, so she didn’t ask further.
She thought that it might be the boyfriend of another actress.
Just like how Lisa used to treat the crew to afternoon tea.
Anyway, no matter who did it, she would still drink it.
…
Something strange happened in the next few days.
Every afternoon, someone would send afternoon tea over.
At first, everyone thought that it was from Jennie’s boyfriend, but she denied it.
The rest of the crew also denied it.
Even Taehyung found it strange and asked someone.
But he didn’t get anything in the end.
The hotel said that they had signed a confidentiality agreement and couldn’t reveal the buyer.
This series of mysterious actions made Taehyung extremely worried. He took a few drinks to the hospital for testing.
The test results showed that there wasn’t any poison. Everything was normal.
This became the hottest topic of discussion during the meal.
Everyone was speculating who spent so much money every day to treat the entire crew to afternoon tea. Was it a rich man who took a liking to a female artiste on the set and didn’t dare to confess openly, using this method to express his feelings?
And because of this, the female actress had put in a lot more effort in dressing up these few days.
Everyone was fantasizing that they might be the one the rich man had a crush on.
“Jennie, who are you talking about? This afternoon tea isn’t cheap. Isn’t he afraid of bankrupting himself by treating us like this every day? Moreover, do you think this person is stupid? If he really likes any female artiste in our production crew, what’s the point of using such a method? They don’t even know who he is.”
Jennie was eating shaved ice.
She didn’t really care who was doing it. She felt that since the other party chose this method, he definitely didn’t want his identity to be exposed.
It was inconvenient for him to expose his identity.
Anyway, she wasn’t interested in finding out who that man was. She was more interested in the shaved ice in her hand.
But if that man was really chasing after the female artiste on set, and his qualifications were really good, Jennie would definitely help him out.
She felt that she had to speak up for him.
Of course, the premise was that the man was willing to show his face in the future.
…
At this moment.
Mino was sitting in a restaurant with a dark expression.
Sitting opposite him was a young girl with curly hair.
The girl looked to be in her early twenties and was wearing a pink princess dress. She had bright eyes and white teeth, and when she smiled, her eyes were curved. She had the unique charm and sweetness of a girl.
An Ya looked at the man’s handsome face in a daze. She was excited at the thought of their elders trying to matchmake them.
She’d liked Mino since she was young.
She’d had a crush on him for years.
Her dream was to marry him and be his wife.
This was the happiest thing in her life.
She didn’t seem to feel the man’s coldness and impatience. She held her chin with one hand and smiled sweetly at Mino. “Brother Mino, I heard that you’re going to officially take over the Song Corporation soon. Is this true?”
Mino looked at his watch and replied calmly, “Mm.”
Anyone could tell that he was being perfunctory.
But An Ya didn’t seem to get it.
“Wow, you’re so impressive.” She blinked in admiration. “I heard from my dad that you’ll be the youngest CEO in the Song Corporation’s history. Even he is full of praise for you and says you’re especially outstanding. He even told me to learn from you.”
Men enjoyed women’s admiration and adoration.
An Ya thought that Mino was no exception.
She looked at him with bright eyes and said sweetly, “I think you’re super awesome too, Brother Mino. You’re my idol.”
An Ya had a sweet look and was dressed sweetly and innocently. She looked like an underage high school student.
She had a good family background and good looks. She was usually popular and sought after by the opposite sex.
But she didn’t seem to realize that Mino wasn’t among them.
The man didn’t think much of her words. He looked at the time again and asked impatiently, “Why aren’t they here yet?”
The two families had agreed to have dinner tonight.
Madam Song repeatedly told Mino to be there. Mino wanted to come over for a walk, but he found an excuse to leave after showing his face.
But when he came over, he realized that the so-called dinner had become a private gathering between him and An Ya.
At first, he thought that he was early and that the elders were still on the way.
He waited patiently for more than 10 minutes.
But as he waited, he realized that something was wrong.
“Are you talking about my mom and auntie?” An Ya looked up at him with a hint of shyness in her eyes. She bit her lip and said, “Aunt said that they won’t disturb us young people on a date. She said we don’t have to wait for them. Brother Mino, are you hungry? Why don’t we start ordering?”
Mino’s expression darkened. He pushed his chair back and stood up.
An Ya looked up at him. “What’s wrong, Brother Mino?”
Mino’s eyes flashed with anger, but he held it in and didn’t vent on An Ya.
“I have something on, you can eat by yourself.”
With that, he turned and left.
An Ya was stunned for a few seconds. By the time she realized what was going on, Mino was already at the stairs. He went downstairs quickly.
“Brother Mino!”
An Ya immediately got up and chased after him. “Brother Mino, wait for me. Where are you going?”
Mino didn’t stop walking and quickly walked downstairs.
An Ya was petite and usually wore high heels to appear taller.
She chased after him in her 10-centimeter high heels, but after taking two steps, she staggered.
The waiter immediately held her.
Thankfully, the waiter came in time, or she would have fallen.
But the waiter’s timely help was met with a slap to the face.
“Get lost, don’t touch me.” An Ya pushed the waiter away with a look of disdain. She then raised her hand and hit the waiter in the face.
She even took out a handkerchief and wiped the place where the waiter was holding her.
That look of despising and the slap made the waiter feel embarrassed and humiliated.
But the waiter knew that he couldn’t afford to offend her.
He had no choice but to bear with it. He covered his face and retreated to the side. “Miss An, I’m sorry. I was afraid you’d fall, so…”
An Ya wasn’t in the mood to listen to his explanation.
She couldn’t care less about the fact that she almost fell and rushed downstairs.
…
When An Ya arrived downstairs, Mino was already at the entrance.
“Brother Mino…”
An Ya ran after him.
She finally caught up with him before he got into the car.
“Brother Mino, wait, I have something to tell you.” An Ya stopped him from getting into the car.
Mino’s expression darkened when he saw her. “What else do you want to say?”
“Brother Mino, why are you leaving all of a sudden?” An Ya bit her lip. The moment she saw Mino, she couldn’t help but blush and have difficulty breathing.
Even if she was still angry.
But in front of Mino, she couldn’t remain so.
Like Lisa, Mino was born with good looks and was liked by girls.
Even though their personalities were detestable, they still won the hearts of many girls with their good looks and prominent background.
An Ya was one of them.
She fell in love with Mino the moment she saw him.
She’d had a crush on him for so many years, but she’d never found a boyfriend. Because she couldn’t hold another man in her heart besides Mino.
The An family was the richest family in C City, and An Ya was the only daughter of the richest man in C City, An Guohuai.
An Guohuai only had one daughter, so he naturally treated her like a precious gem.
An Guohuai would satisfy his daughter in everything An Ya wanted.
After knowing that his daughter liked Mino, An Guohuai looked for Madam Song and revealed that he wanted the two families to be married.
Madam Song had no objections.
Mino was old enough to get married, and the An and Gong families were compatible. Madam Song was very satisfied with An Ya’s status as a well-known pianist.
After the two families agreed, they decided to create opportunities for their children.
Hence, they arranged a date for tonight.
Madam Song knew her son’s personality, so she coaxed him.
Madam Song thought that An Ya was an outstanding girl, and Mino would definitely like her.
But she didn’t know that Mino already had someone in his heart.
Mino looked down at the shy and blushing An Ya and kept quiet for a few seconds before saying coldly, “Miss An, I think I’d better get straight to the point, lest you misunderstand me.
“I’m sure you can tell that your family and mine are trying to matchmake us.”
An Ya blushed even more.
She quickly glanced at Mino and said shyly, “So… Brother Mino can tell too. I wonder… what Brother Mino thinks.”
Mino wasn’t interested in girls like An Ya.
Moreover, he already had someone in his heart.
He didn’t even want to look at her.
He had been with many women, so he could tell that An Ya had feelings for him.
He felt that he should make things clear.
Mino thought for a while and said directly, “I’m sorry, Miss An. You’re not my type. Moreover, I already have a woman I like. So, I think this matter is over.
“If Miss An is willing, we can be ordinary friends.”
An Ya widened her eyes. “Just… just friends?”
“Mm.” Mino looked at her coldly. “Of course, if Miss An isn’t willing, then forget it. I still have something on, please stop blocking my way.”
An Ya was stunned. She blushed when she realized that she had indeed blocked Mino’s way.
Mino didn’t look at her anymore. He got into the car and left.
He had driven away for a while, but An Ya was still standing there.
She was still thinking about what Mino had said, and her eyes were red with anger.
At this moment, her cell phone rang.
An Ya bit her lip and picked it up.
“Baby, how’s your chat with Aunt Song’s son? Have you eaten? I have two tickets for the concert here. I’ll send them to you later. After dinner, you can go to the concert to promote your relationship.”
“Promote my ass.”
Speaking of which, An Ya wasn’t officially born into a rich family.
Although the An family was rich, they were different from the Song and Manoban families.
The An family became rich in An Ya’s father’s generation.
Although An Ya was from a prestigious family, her upbringing and etiquette weren’t that good.
She vented her anger on Madam An. “Brother Mino has already left. I’m not with him now. It’s all your rotten idea. You arranged this blind date behind Brother Mino’s back. He’s very against this because he’s unhappy with me.”
“What? You said your Aunt Song’s son has left? He knows that our families want to matchmake you two?”
“Brother Mino is so smart, how could he not know?” An Ya said angrily. “He hates it when people lie to him. He must have a bad impression of me now. It’s all your fault, what should we do now?”
“Baby, don’t be angry. Are you saying that your Aunt Song’s son knows that we want you to marry him? My Baby is so good, but he’s actually unwilling?”
An Ya rubbed her reddened eyes and said angrily, “He said he has a woman he likes. He also said he’s not interested in girls like me.”
“He really said that?”
“Why would I lie to you?”
“My baby is so outstanding, so many guys are pursuing you, but he still doesn’t like you. I think he must have bad taste. You don’t have to like him anymore. Wait for Mom to introduce you to someone better, you…”
“No, I want Brother Mino.” An Ya interrupted Madam An. Her heart raced again as she thought of Mino’s handsome face. “I don’t want anyone else but him.”
Madam An was stunned. “But, didn’t you say he has a woman he likes?”
“Maybe he said it out of anger.” Anya thought for a while and comforted herself. “That’s right, it must be. He’s angry, so he said it out of anger. Anyway, don’t introduce me to other men. I only want Brother Mino.
“If I can’t marry him, I won’t marry in this lifetime.”
“Yaya, do you think this is what a young lady should say? People will laugh at you if they hear this.”
“Mom, I don’t care. I just like Brother Mino and want to marry him. Anyway, I won’t marry anyone else.”
An Ya didn’t believe that Mino had no interest in her.
She was confident in her charm.
As long as it was the man she wanted, there was nothing she couldn’t get.
…
After Jennie signed the endorsement deal for Xue Shiya’s facial mask, Xue Shiya posted this news on Weibo and tagged her.
At the same time, Xue Shiya posted another Weibo. It was also a new spokesperson signed by another company. They then tagged Nancy.
These two posts immediately caused a heated discussion.
Nancy and Jennie were sisters. They’d gotten into such a huge argument previously, and now they actually signed an endorsement for the same company.
The netizens were discussing whether Xue Shiya did it on purpose.
They deliberately invited the two sisters to endorse the new product, so as to create hype and increase the sales of the facial masks.
“Nancy and Jennie actually signed the endorsement of the same company’s facial masks? Which one do you think will sell better?”
“In terms of popularity and fame, Nancy is definitely better. No matter what, Nancy is a true A-list actress, so her ability to carry goods should be alright. As for Jennie… she hasn’t produced a single work yet. She’s just relying on scandals to get fans. I really don’t know what Xue Shiya is thinking. They actually signed her. Aren’t they afraid that the product won’t sell?”
“But I think Jennie is very beautiful, and her skin is super good. Her endorsement of skincare products will make people want to buy them.”
The netizens were discussing fervently.
Neither of them knew about it.
When Nancy found out that she and Jennie would actually be endorsing the same company’s facial masks, she sneered at the official Weibo post.
Tao Fang saw it too.
Tao Fang was Nancy’s manager now.
As an old employee of Star Splendor, Tao Fang knew that Nancy and Jennie had always been at odds.
The two of them were already at loggerheads, and now they had signed endorsements from the same company.
Even if it was a different product under the same company’s name, the endorsement signed at the same time definitely had to have a sales comparison.
Tao Fang smiled. “Nancy, what’s there to be angry about? Her ability to carry goods is definitely not as good as yours. When the sales volume is out, the company will know who’s the best choice.
“You have more works, a better reputation, and more fans. I think Jennie will lose badly.”
Nancy pursed her lips and looked a little unhappy. “I’m not worried about that. I just don’t understand what Xue Shiya is thinking. They actually signed with Jennie as well. I don’t want to work with this slut in the same company.”
“Maybe it’s because she’s always on the hot searches and they feel that signing her can drive sales. Coincidentally, the products you’ve signed are on the same day line. It’s obvious how the sales will be.”
Nancy clenched her fist and sneered. “Then, I’ll slap her in the face.”
…
When Jennie found out that she and Nancy had signed an endorsement contract with the same company, although she was a little shocked, she remained calm.
Two days later, Xue Shiya called and asked if she had the time to shoot a short commercial for them.
Jennie had just finished filming a scene and had very few scenes in the next two days. After asking Taehyung, she agreed.
After confirming the location, Jennie brought Nana along.
At the filming location.
Jennie was led to the filming location by the crew. The filming location was set up with a shed with some filming equipment.
Jennie heard familiar laughter the moment she entered.
She stopped in her tracks and stood at the door for a few seconds before her expression returned to normal. She continued walking in.
The crew member leading them quickly walked towards the director. “Director Zhao, Miss Jennie is here.”
Nancy suddenly looked up.
Nancy’s smile stiffened when she saw her.
Jennie ignored her and greeted the director politely. “Hello, Director Zhao. I’m Jennie.”
The director looked up and was stunned when he saw her.
His main task today was to shoot an advertisement for Nancy and Jennie for their new product two days later.
Hence, he had read about them before this.
Nancy wasn’t that different from the photos, so the director didn’t feel anything when he saw her.
But Jennie was more stunning in person than in photos.
When the director saw her photo, he felt that she was one of the best in the industry.
Now that he saw her in person, he was really shocked.
He never thought that Jennie would look so much better in person. She was so much prettier than Nancy.
The director only wanted to shoot her.
He forgot all about Nancy.
Nancy naturally didn’t overlook the stunned look in the director’s eyes. Seeing that the director was staring at Jennie as if he was in a daze, she cursed in her heart and tried to pull the director’s attention back to her.
“Director Zhao.”
But the director didn’t seem to hear her.
Nancy got even angrier. She bit her lip and called out again, “Director Zhao.”
At this moment, the director finally looked away from Jennie.
But he still ignored Nancy and looked back at Jennie. “Miss Kwon, I see that your skin is very good. I want to ask, can you do the shooting bare-faced?
“I think you can add points to the product by showing it to the audience.”
It was rare for an artiste to appear on screen without makeup.
Most female artistes wouldn’t agree.
Actually, the director wouldn’t usually make such a request.
Hence, he regretted it the next moment.
But he felt that Jennie’s skin was especially good, and heavy makeup wasn’t suitable. It would be more acceptable if she didn’t wear makeup.
With her looks, she could fight even without makeup.
She was completely different from Nancy, who needed cosmetics to look good.
That was why the director suggested going on screen without makeup.
This request stunned Nancy.
But she wasn’t happy.
She knew Jennie looked without makeup.
“Film without makeup? Alright.” Jennie nodded without much consideration.
She agreed too quickly.
The director was stunned and asked with uncertainty, “Are you sure? I want a bare face. No makeup at all.”
Jennie nodded. “Mm, I’m sure. Didn’t you just ask that? Is there a problem?”
Of course.
The director only confirmed it with her because he was too shocked.
After all, Jennie was the first to agree to his request.
Other female celebrities would actually put on light makeup even if they said they were bare-faced.
It wasn’t a real face, but a fake one.
Hence, Jennie was the first female artiste to agree to his request.
“No problem!” After confirming that she was really willing to shoot the commercial bare-faced, the director seemed a little agitated. “Miss Kwon, regarding the filming situation later, I think we can talk about it in detail now. Miss Kwon, why don’t we talk over there?”
The director wanted them to talk somewhere else.
Nancy’s expression darkened.
She was fuming.
Before Jennie came, she was still chatting with the director.
But when Jennie arrived, the director seemed to have completely forgotten about her.
Nancy thought that her fame and status in the entertainment industry were way higher than Jennie’s. She felt that the director would definitely prioritize her and not take Jennie seriously.
But now, the director seemed very interested in Jennie.
She was the one being neglected.
She looked like a newbie.
This made Nancy extremely upset.
It was fine if she couldn’t compare to Jennie in other places.
But Jennie was just a newbie, why should the director value her?
In this industry, wasn’t it all about fame and status?
Nancy said unhappily, “Director Zhao, what’s there to talk about with a newbie? You can just arrange for her to do it. I have something I don’t understand. Director Zhao, let’s talk.”
The director was stunned.
After Nancy and Jennie’s fight, everyone in the industry now knew that they were sisters.
They all knew that their relationship wasn’t good.
The director didn’t know how to respond to Nancy’s request.
He was very interested in Jennie now and wanted to rely on her to shoot a good advertisement.
Nancy was more famous than Jennie.
But in terms of appearance, the two sisters were too different.
Given Nancy’s looks, the director could already imagine the effect of the advertisement.
But Jennie was different.
She had an extremely good appearance. Her face was the size of a palm, and her facial features were especially suitable for the camera.
Moreover, her skin was smooth and delicate. No matter how close the camera was, it was impossible to see any flaws.
Most importantly, Jennie was willing to appear on the screen barefaced.
That alone was enough.
“Ahem.” The director kept quiet for a few seconds before rejecting her. “Nancy, you’re a veteran in the industry. You’re experienced, so you don’t need me to teach you anything. But Jennie is a newbie, and this is her first time shooting an advertisement. She doesn’t know many things, so I have to give her an explanation.
“I’ll talk to her first. If there’s anything else you don’t know, look for me later.”
With that, the director waved at Jennie. “Jennie, let’s go and talk.”
As if afraid that Nancy would stop him, the director left quickly.
Nancy’s expression darkened.
She turned around and glared at Jennie.
It was as if Jennie had stolen something from her.
“Jennie, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to snatch the job from me? You know that I signed with Xue Shiya, so you took the back door. What a joke. What’s the point of doing this? Just you wait, Xue Shiya will definitely regret signing with you.”
Jennie looked at her indifferently. Just a few words from her made Nancy look afraid.
“Nancy, I did promise to let you off, but that doesn’t mean I’ll tolerate you in the future. I advise you to control your temper in front of me. If you can’t do it, run away with your tail between your legs. At least be sensible. If I can get someone to ban you once, I can ban you a second time, a third time.
“After all…”
She smiled and looked at Nancy’s pale face. “To me, banning you is a piece of cake, right?
“A wise man submits to circumstances. Figure out your current identity and you might be able to go further.
“Also, do you think with your current status, it’s worth me spending time and effort to target you? Are you worthy?”
She didn’t continue.
Nancy’s face went pale.
It was as if she’d applied a layer of powder.
