Li Feile was completely baffled by these words.
Is the coffee good?
How weird.
What does it have to do with her?
Just as she was about to ask, Jiang Liuyue had already left.
The male assistant beside her was so scared that he broke into a cold sweat and quickly tried to smooth things over:
"Sister Feile, I ran into Jiang Liuyue when I went out to buy coffee just now."
"Didn't you use to order her around to buy all your coffee? So when she heard you wanted iced coffee, she eagerly went to buy it."
Li Feile frowned.
She glanced at the coffee on the table.
And complained:
"So she bought it."
"No wonder it tastes so awful, her taste is terrible!"
The male assistant nodded repeatedly.
Suddenly, Li Feile looked up, scrutinizing him with a sharp gaze.
She looked him up and down.
It scared the male assistant so much that he didn't dare to move.
Only then did she speak:
"I told you to go buy coffee, and look at you!"
"You've learned to slack off?"
The male assistant quickly defended himself:
"How could I, Sister Feile? It's just that I saw Jiang Liuyue rushing to suck up to you like a dog, and I deliberately wanted to see her make a fool of herself!"
"She even came over just now to ask if it tasted good, probably wanting to claim credit."
After the male assistant finished speaking, he felt incredibly thankful for his quick wit.
This way, it seemed like everything made perfect sense.
Li Feile was also misled by his deceptive words.
She then curled her lips in a smug smile.
And said with great disdain:
"No wonder."
"However, even if she wants to curry favor with me, it's useless."
"People I hate are destined to fail in the entertainment industry!"
The male assistant echoed her sentiments repeatedly.
...
Jiang Liuyue told Qian Li about being forced to take a break.
Qian Li looked furious but didn't know what to do.
This time, they couldn't keep going to Sister Amy for help.
She thought for a moment and said:
"Li Feile is suppressing you right now simply because you don't have any popularity."
"How about this, I still have some resources and connections in the industry."
"When those dark rumors about you acting like a diva on set and being a sugar baby came out, a few entertainment talk shows actually sent invitations, but I didn't agree right away."
"After all, if you say the wrong thing on the show, you'll be completely ruined."
Jiang Liuyue interrupted her.
She already had a countermeasure in mind.
"Sister Li, I'll take it."
"But only one. Put the word out that I'm willing to go on a show to clarify things."
"Whoever wants the exclusive rights will have to show their sincerity and how much edited screen time they are willing to give."
Qian Li's gaze toward her gained a layer of relief and respect.
Remaining unfazed and so calm in handling things.
She was a good prospect.
Jiang Liuyue thought for a moment and continued:
"Oh right, sign me up for an acting class."
"Preferably the kind that all those eye candy actors in the industry go to."
Qian Li was very puzzled upon hearing this.
She quickly advised:
"Do you know that kind of acting class is actually useless? They don't really study seriously; it just sounds nice to say they are improving their acting skills."
"These are all just to fool fans and clueless passersby."
"Just now on set Li Feile said your acting was bad. If you really go to this kind of acting class, wouldn't that just confirm it?!"
Jiang Liuyue smiled mysteriously.
"Sister Li, don't you know that everyone loves an unexpected plot twist the most?"
Regarding the incident of being bullied by Li Feile.
Jiang Liuyue didn't tell Song Hanzheng about it on WeChat.
Their relationship was still too shallow in these early stages; complaining at this time would backfire.
She couldn't yet grasp the true relationship between Li Feile and Song Hanzheng, nor Li Feile's importance in Song Hanzheng's heart.
So, it was better to wait and see.
...
The next day.
After Jiang Liuyue arrived at the acting training class.
She first sent her location to Song Hanzheng.
Jiang Liuyue: [Location]
Jiang Liuyue: [Pick me up here tonight.]
The tone was very crisp, just like friends who had known each other for a long time.
Taken for granted.
It took a long time for Song Hanzheng to reply.
Song Hanzheng: [Not filming today?]
Jiang Liuyue: [Yeah, the director gave me a day off, so I'm improving my acting skills first.]
Song Hanzheng: [Okay.]
He vaguely sensed that something was wrong.
But Jiang Liuyue didn't mention it.
Out of respect, he didn't mention it either.
After putting down his phone, Song Hanzheng summoned his special assistant.
"President Song."
"Go check the set of The Legend of Linu, has anything happened recently?"
The special assistant thought the CEO was concerned about Li Feile and immediately said:
"Okay, I will investigate everything that has happened on set since Miss Li joined the cast."
"No," Song Hanzheng corrected. "Not Li Feile, Jiang Liuyue."
The special assistant was stunned.
Jiang Liuyue.
This name was very unfamiliar. Could it be the CEO's new favorite?
However, his professionalism was excellent. He nodded immediately and said:
"Understood, I will investigate everything that happened to Miss Jiang on set and submit a written report to you before the end of the workday."
"Alright, you may go."
Song Hanzheng waved his hand.
After the special assistant closed the office door, he wondered if he was being a bit too concerned.
It was just playing a fake boyfriend game together, right?
He wasn't Jiang Liuyue's real boyfriend anyway.
Why take it so seriously.
Forget it.
Just consider it returning the favor for her treating him to a meal of Diguo Chicken.
...
Jiang Liuyue knew none of this.
She only knew that as soon as she entered the acting class, she was startled by the noisy scene inside.
The teacher was giving a lesson.
And today's topic was freeing one's natural instincts.
So among the students in the classroom, some were playing gorillas, some playing dinosaurs, and there were even lizards, octopuses, and the Loch Ness Monster.
It could be described as a wild dance of demons.
Seeing her come in, the teacher looked down and checked the student roster.
And read out her name.
"New student? Jiang Liuyue?"
"Yes." Jiang Liuyue nodded.
The teacher pointed to an empty seat and said, "Go take a seat, and choose an animal you want to act out as well."
As soon as she sat down.
A beautiful woman and a handsome guy sitting on either side of her immediately started actively trying to pull her into their respective tribes.
"Be a bumblebee with me, buzz buzz buzz." The beautiful woman waved her hands as she spoke, creating a huge contrast with her appearance.
"Hey, why would a girl be a bumblebee? It's not elegant at all."
"Be a beautiful peacock like me." The handsome guy showed off as he spoke, using his hands as beautiful feathers, slowly fanning them out.
The beauty retorted, "Only male peacocks fan their tails."
The handsome guy shot back, "That's still better than being a bumblebee."
Watching them bicker.
They looked like friends who had known each other for a while.
Jiang Liuyue smiled at them subtly.
And hesitantly spoke up:
"Is there any possibility..."
"That I want to be an otter."
The beauty and the handsome guy exchanged a glance.
And simultaneously closed their eyes in despair.
"Alright."
"Goodbye."
The handsome guy pointed to a corner seat and said, "Look, there's an otter over there too. I really didn't expect anyone else to be as weird as him."
Jiang Liuyue looked in that direction.
And happened to meet a pair of light brown eyes.
The young man was wearing a thin black shirt with the cuffs slightly rolled up, revealing a section of pale wrist.
He was imitating the movements of an otter.
He looked like he was zoning out, or perhaps just daydreaming.
Even when making such silly movements, the handsome guy still managed to look somewhat pitiable.
Jiang Liuyue's gaze fell on his face, and she paused in surprise.
If she wasn't mistaken, the man before her was Lin, a member of TW-Q, the most popular boy band in the neighboring country.
Lin Yizhou.
He was Chinese.
Becoming a top-tier star in a foreign land was quite an achievement.
She had heard that he had recently ended his contract with his agency and was preparing to return home to further his career.
Thinking of this,
Jiang Liuyue took the initiative to step forward.
She greeted him:
"Hello, Otter."
"I'm one too."
