Chapter 10 - Face-Slapping ("With her high standing, if she's willing to bash your actresses, she was doing you a favor") (2)

Xu WanZhi had very good hearing. Even though Sun-jie was speaking softly and the thick door to the office was closed and it was on the other end of the hallway, she could still catch every single word clearly.

"That Xu WanZhi is such an ungrateful thing. I told her to go run into Jiang YueXian at the airport this morning. Guess what she said? She said she wasn't going to go. It's shameful, she said. With her standing? What exactly was so shameful to her? With her current standing, she still wanted to pick and choose what she will or will not do? Did she really think she could make it with just her looks alone? Who's not attractive in this circle, right? If she's going to be so stuck up, she should pick up a bowl and go bag for money on the streets. See if anyone would give her a few extra cents because she is so pretty!"

When she was done, everybody in the office with her burst out laughing.

Xu WanZhi snickered, walked down the hall in her high heels, and pushed the door open.

Inside the office, the subject had already moved onto Mu ZhenYu. Sun-jie, seeing that Xu WanZhi was there, didn't think she could hear what they had said a few minutes ago so she said to her coldly, "Why are you here? What do you want?"

Xu WanZhi didn't look any better than her. "Not Enough Time To Love Up has wrapped up. I came to let you know that plus I'm here to see if there's any other scripts available."

"Oh, puuulease," said Sun-jie as though Xu WanZhi was cracking a joke. She sat up and said, mockingly to her colleagues next to her, "Do you know how many first and second tiers actresses in our company have no work right now? If we have a script available, you would be at the bottom of the queue. I've heard that you've beat up on Zhou LiQian this afternoon, just because she mentioned you under Jiang YueXian's WeChat? That's so funny, had she said anything incorrect? Such a great opportunity that I had offered up to you. I told you to go, what made you think you could not go? Look at it now. You didn't get onto hot searches and you beat someone up. I guarantee you that Zhou LiQian will start a sh*t show online before dinnertime. C'mon, can't you just not create problems for us, hmm? What do you have to go against someone of Zhou LiQian's standing?"

Xu WanZhi's mouth curved up, and she said, "She can go right ahead and do that. The more negative publicity I have, the happier you are anyway. To put it in your words, with her high standing, if she's willing to bash one of your actresses, then she's doing you a favor. You should be thankful here, why are you complaining to me about it?"

"Watch your attitude!!" said Sun-jie as she slammed her palm against her desk. "Xu WanZhi, starting right now, turn in your chauffeur, assistant, and car key. Go home and think about what you have done."

Xu WanZhi hadn't even said a word in response before someone knocked on the door. The person who was knocking let herself in. Xu WanZhi turned around and saw that it was Xiao Yuan, her assistant.

"WanZhi-jie, I have a document here for you to sign."

Sun-jie snapped right away. She stood up and started shouting at her, "Xiao Yuan! Have you no manners? We are still talking here. Who said you can just walk in like this? What's so important that she might sign it this minute?"

"Transfe of stock ownership," came a young woman's voice from outside the door. A woman in a power suit and hair pulled into a ponytail walked in and said, "I was the one who let her walk in here. Do you have a problem with that?"

Everybody who were there gossiping just a moment ago all changed colors, and they uniformly stood up and greeted her at once, "Fang-jie."

The unexpected guest was one of Silver Star's elders, golden agent Fang Lin. She has a lot of seniority at Silver Star. Not only was she an agent, she was also involved in the management of the company. The fact that Silver Star was still around attributed a lot to her.
