Chapter 104: I Can See You Off for a While
The two of them...
Yun Fu searched through her memory for those faces, and only then did the names and the people connect.
So it was them.
A trace of chill touched those ordinarily indifferent eyes. If they dared scheme against her, then she would see whether they had the strength to bear the consequences.
I’ve already sent you their files. Do you want me to handle it for you?
A few light taps on the keyboard, and the records of the two women appeared, including the disgraceful things they had done.
What was interesting was that both of them were closely connected to the same person, Xi Rouer.
Now that was interesting.
No need. I’ll take care of it myself.
After a whole night of ferment, the trending topic still had not died down. In fact, it had drawn even more people into the matter, so much so that it would have been impossible for anyone to believe no one was stirring things up behind the scenes.
When Qiao An arrived, there were dark circles under her eyes, clear proof that she had not slept well.
Seeing Yun Fu still eating breakfast with unruffled ease, the anxiety in Qiao An’s heart vanished at once.
"Xiaofu, have you thought of a solution?"
"Mm."
Qiao An’s eyes lit up. "What is it? Should I help you handle it?"
"Come with me."
Then Yun Fu pointed to the chair across from her. "Sit down and have something first."
At the invitation, Qiao An only then remembered she had come over without eating breakfast. She really was a little hungry.
Looking at the familiar Juke Zhai logo on the lunch box, Qiao An was no longer surprised. She even joined in and ate a little.
When the two drove over to Huayu Entertainment, Yun Fu took out her phone and scrolled through the comments.
The remarks below were still filthy beyond words, but gradually, a few different voices had begun to appear.
Why has this always been pinned up top? Could it be that Yun Fu has blocked someone’s way lately?
Her resources really are enviable, and there’s also Director Liu’s film. If she does well in it, she might even win an award.
Then it’s possible someone wants to snatch the resources from her. After all, it’s a film by Director Liu. Who wouldn’t be jealous?
As these netizens said, at that moment Xi Rouer and Qiu Fangfei were sitting together, both looking at the comments above and feeling a great weight lift from their chests.
Xi Rouer held a cup of coffee, still wearing that gracious, polished smile. "Director Liu doesn’t like using actors with too much black material. I’ll go find President Zhou in a moment; that film won’t end up in her hands."
Anyway, filming hadn’t started yet, and even if it did, the actress could still be changed.
Qiu Fangfei was visibly excited, looking at Xi Rouer with gratitude. "Sister Rouer, you really are the smartest. That Yun Fu is far too full of herself. Setting aside that I’m her senior, just your standing alone is so much higher than hers, and yet she still dared to treat you that way on the show."
At those words, Xi Rouer could not help but darken slightly, recalling what had happened during the recording.
Yun Fu had stolen all the attention, while she had seemed excluded from everything.
Hmph. Now she wanted to see how much longer Yun Fu could keep jumping around.
"Those things are all in the past. We’re friends, so helping you is only natural; it isn’t to deal with anyone."
"I know." Qiu Fangfei nodded repeatedly. "Sister Rouer, you’re so gentle and kind. You completely outclass that Yun Fu."
Xi Rouer curved her lips, set down her coffee cup, and slowly rose to her feet.
The two of them took the elevator down together, only to see an unbelievable person on the first floor.
"Yun Fu! Why are you here?!"
Qiu Fangfei’s voice rose sharply.
Yun Fu heard her and lazily lifted her head, her black-and-white eyes sweeping lightly over her.
As if she were merely looking at an object without warmth, and then letting it pass.
How could Qiu Fangfei swallow that insult? "Hey, at the very least the two of us are your seniors. Even if you don’t greet us, don’t act as if you can’t see us."
Having said that, she stood in front of Yun Fu and blocked the way to the elevator.
Yun Fu raised her eyes, and there was not the slightest warmth left in them, only cold indifference.
Her red lips parted. "A good dog doesn’t block the road."
"You!"
Xi Rouer grabbed Qiu Fangfei, who was trembling all over with anger, and spoke with feigned gentleness, "Yun Fu, what are you doing here?"
But Yun Fu did not even spare her a glance.
"Hmph, she’s probably here to plead for mercy. This isn’t even your company—don’t tell me you’ve hooked up with someone high up in ours."
"All right, Fangfei. Yun Fu may have come for work. The film with Director Liu is gone, so she should have quite a bit of free time right now." After soothing Qiu Fangfei, Xi Rouer looked back at Yun Fu. "Yun Fu, I only just returned to the country, and there’s really too much work for me to handle alone. If you have time, I can pass some of it to you."
Watching the two of them trade barbs like actors in a grand play, the temperature in Yun Fu’s eyes grew colder and colder.
She clenched her fist, suddenly finding her hand itching terribly. If this had been before, these two would already be dead.
Unfortunately, this was neither a tropical rainforest nor an ancient capital.
"Mind your own business," Yun Fu said, not even deigning to look at them this time, and motioned to Qiao An behind her to press the elevator button.
Qiu Fangfei could not bear to watch any longer and forcibly dragged Xi Rouer to block Yun Fu’s way again.
"What did you just call a dog? Don’t you think you should apologize?"
...
Yun Fu felt her patience had reached its limit. Under Qiao An’s terrified gaze, she reached out and clamped down on Qiu Fangfei’s hand.
Her strength was shocking. Qiu Fangfei’s whole body slammed toward Xi Rouer, yet she could not break free at all.
This was the artists’ elevator entrance, a secluded spot where hardly anyone passed by, which only made things more convenient for Yun Fu.
She held Qiu Fangfei down with one hand, pinning her against Xi Rouer so that the two of them could not move an inch.
A voice colder than ice shards rang out. "I have a bad temper. If you’re so eager to leave this world, I can help you on your way."
Those stunning eyes swept over the two of them and finally came to rest on Xi Rouer’s face.
In that instant, Xi Rouer had never felt a person’s eyes capable of being so scorching, as though they could see through everything.
"I remember everything you’ve done. I’ll return each and every one of those things to you in time. Wanting to die isn’t that hard, so there’s no need to rush."
With that, Yun Fu gave a hard shove, and the two women were sent stumbling a full meter away.
She dusted off her hands, then took the elevator with Qiao An, who had lowered her head and was radiating helplessness all over.
Only when they reached the sixteenth floor did Qiao An finally begin to recover her senses.
But Yun Fu did not need her to.
"Wait for me here."
As she spoke, she was already knocking on the door marked General Manager’s Office.
Qiao An: "..."
Just what kind of artist had she brought along? Why was she so fierce?
When Zhou Heng saw the girl standing before him, his gaze settled on her face. Even though he had seen her online, he still could not help but be amazed.
It had to be said that she was indeed a rarely seen beauty, one who remained dazzling even in a place like the entertainment industry.
He cleared his throat and was just about to speak when the young woman before him hooked her long leg, dragging the chair beside her over to her own side, and sat down without the slightest politeness.
