That night, Jennie was still running some scenes with Director Xiao in the monitor placed in front of the director's area. She was finished doing her scenes that night and was only checking if there was any error in some scenes and if the directors would like to change or add some details.
Director Xiao was very pleased upon seeing Jennie work so hard which was rarely seen amongst stars like her. Usually, actresses who have gained some popularity and value would begin to show some attitude and forget to show a bit of humbleness.
It was uncomfortable working with artists who started to show a bit of arrogance and that is why Director Xiao was so satisfied with working with Jennie that he even recommended her to other director friends he had in his group chat.
After discussing a few more points that needed to be changed and edited, Jennie finally left the set and stood in front of the building to wait for Adelle to drive the car there.
While waiting, Jennie opened her chat with Leo and almost melted when she saw his last message.
[Baby Leo: Mommy, I want to see you!]
[Baby Leo: A'Yu went out alone. Will he be alright? He won't get lost right?]
[Baby Leo: A'Yu said that he'll buy me candies and toys when he comes home. Should I give him a kiss?]
[Baby Leo: Mommy, Leo loves you!]
Jennie felt her heart being filled with sweetness just seeing her son's messages. Even the biting coldness of the air was no longer felt because of her son!
Ah! Leo is truly an angel sent to her by God.
After waiting for a bit, Jennie looked for a place to sit. Just as she lifted her foot to take a step forward, she smelled a strange scent floating over, making her frown.
Where did this smell come from?
Just then, Shi Lian, who saw Jennie walking to a bench, stopped in her tracks and glanced at her for a few seconds before stepping forward.
Her face was pale and one did not know it was due to the cold weather or perhaps for another reason. But Jennie, who noticed Steffanie's manager walking towards her, only deepened her frown.
Thinking about it, Steffanie must be agitated by the news of Bai Jingjing's exposure. Jennie wondered how she would respond to this, but it seems that her response was a bit too early.
Did Steffanie send her manager to beg her?
Jennie had no idea on what Steffanie was planning to do and could only guess that she sent her manager in her way. Perhaps, her friendly warning at that time made Steffanie think that Jennie pitied her manager and so, she sent her over instead of personally coming to confront her.
Although Jennie did feel some pity towards Steffanie's manager seeing how she was treated by the latter, it didn't mean she would lower her guard towards her.
"Jennie... Jennie." Shi Lian stepped forward and greeted her. "Are you going back now?"
Jennie silently observed her and nodded.
Shi Lian felt even more nervous seeing that Jennie was on guard against her.
"Um... I'm sorry about what Steffanie did last time to your manager." Shi Lian approached Jennie and looked down. "She was just too angry about what happened and being spoiled by her father, she's used to getting what she wanted."
Jennie raised her eyebrows. "Why are you saying this? You're not Steffanie's babysitter. And even if you are, it doesn't make sense for you to apologize while the real wrongdoer does nothing."
