Chapter 193: I’ll Dump You Now!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Zhou Xuefang looked at Han Junlei apologetically. His expression had never been this bad.
The awkwardness spread throughout the set for quite a while. Han Junlei looked at the sky that was getting dark. “We’ll stop filming for today. Su Ji, go back and rest your throat. We’ll continue filming tomorrow. As for this matter, I’ll give everyone an explanation tomorrow!”
Since Director Han had already said so, the others had to obey. Moreover, after a whole day of high-intensity filming, everyone also hoped that they could wrap up earlier.
Yang Xiaotao placed her hand in a hidden place and gave Su Ji thumbs up.
If it wasn’t for Su Ji today, their relationship would have remained a secret!
It turned out that the young miss of the Zhou family enjoyed special privileges.
Su Ji, like everyone else, was looking forward to Director Han’s explanation the next day.
Yang Xiaotao packed her bag. “Su Ji, let’s go together?”
Su Ji looked at the time. It was past 7 o’clock in the evening.
It would be too late to go home now and prepare for the calligraphy class.
“You can go first, I still have something to do.”
Yang Xiaotao was dejected. “Alright~”
After all the crew members left, she was the last one there.
Fortunately, they were filming in an office building today, so it was more convenient to buy things.
She went to the supermarket downstairs to buy some ink and paper.
Ten minutes later, as the sales assistant brought her the four-piece calligraphy set, she scratched her forehead with her knuckles.
The brush was very short, and there was a childish pattern on it.
“Excuse me, is there another one?” Su Ji asked.
The saleswoman’s smile was very friendly. “I’m sorry, we don’t have any more. This is the best quality we have. Why don’t you take a look again?”
“Ok, I’ll take this.”
At least it was cheap.
No matter what kind of brush she used, it would not affect her teaching.
A children’s app and a children’s brush.
Perfect!
At the beginning of the second week’s calligraphy class, 300 students were in the room.
Although, for people like “Sunset Lover” and “Gold Medal Stay-at-home Dad”, they might have asked the butler to help them record it.
Later on, they would watch the replays!
In the Pei Corporation.
Pei Huai was looking at the contract in his hand. Su Ji’s live-stream was on his phone and he would glance at it from time to time.
His eyebrows relaxed.
However, he soon noticed that Su Ji was not at home.
There were two knocks on the door, and Shen Mu came in with the Chinese medicine that had just been heated.
“Boss, your medicine is ready.”
Starting this week, the higher-ups of the corporation realized something.
Their CEO was starting to take care of his body!
Moreover, in order to take the medicine with his meals, he was eating more regularly than before.
In the past, he would always forget to eat when he was busy, but it was different now.
He didn’t care about anything else, but he had to cure this condition as soon as possible!
Shen Mu put down the medicine and saw that the boss was attending Ms. Su’s class. He was afraid of disturbing him and was about to leave.
Pei Huai called out to him.
“How can I help you?”
Pei Huai drank his Chinese medicine slowly. “Find out where Su Ji is filming today.”
The screen of the phone was filled with comments.
[ “Did my queen get an office just to teach us?” ]
[ “So thoughtful!!!” ]
[“Wait! Look at the brush in her hands!” ]
In the video, Su Ji was holding a brush and was very serious as she wrote on a piece of paper.
As she did so, the cartoon at the end of the pen swayed.
It looked very childish.
[ “Is she sponsored?” ]
[ “The 4-piece brush set costs 15 yuan, I don’t think they can afford our queen!” ]
[ “There are indeed different ways to insult someone.” ]
Zhu Mingzhang was insulted once again!
It turned out that with Su Ji’s calligraphy skills, even if she were to write with a mop dipped in ink, she would still be able to amaze everyone!
At the end of today’s class, the 4-piece brush set had been sold out!
To be honest, Zhu Mingzhang became more impressed with each lesson!
This time, after class, he couldn’t stand it and sent an invitation to Su Ji.
“Master, there’s an exchange meeting at the Calligraphy Association tomorrow. If you’re free, would you like to come? If they can learn from you, their calligraphy skills will definitely improve a lot!”
Su Ji still had to reshoot the scenes that she had not finished today tomorrow morning. She was not sure if she would have time, so she did not make a promise.
[ “I’ll let you know~” ]
After the livestream ended, Su Ji tidied up the office desk.
Looking out of the window, she realized that the sky had already turned dark.
She was the only one left in the office, and the lights in the other rooms on the same floor had been turned off.
The surroundings were unusually quiet.
Su Ji packed her things and locked the door. The lights in the last office were off.
She walked along the long corridor for a while before the sensor light went out.
She let out a calm “ah”, and the light came back on.
The elevator going downstairs was already in sight. The sudden ringing of the phone was like a thunderclap in the quiet space.
Su Ji looked at the caller ID, and a faint smile appeared on her expressionless face. “Hello.”
On the other end of the line, Pei Huai’s voice was low and he seemed to be smiling. “It’s me.”
Of course, Su Ji knew it was him.
Although she didn’t want to admit it, the moment she received his call, she felt less lonely.
Su Ji started complaining. “If you want to order more food, I’ll dump you now!”
She usually had a good appetite, but today, she was about to puke.
However, after she finished speaking, the other end of the phone fell silent.
Su Ji furrowed her eyebrows.
He was not so fragile, was he?
Was she being too harsh?
As she was deep in thought, the elevator came up from the first floor.
It was not surprising that the security guards patrolled every night.
Su Ji was thinking if she should say something to coax him, but the voice on the other end spoke again.
“The signal is bad,”
“I am sorry.”
“Next time, I won’t send you food. I’ll send you drinks.”
There was no anger in his tone.
Su Ji smiled. “We’ll talk about it next time.”
However, her throat was really dry and thirsty after the scenes and the calligraphy class.
She quickened her pace towards the elevator, wanting to go downstairs to buy a drink.
In the next second, the number on the display outside the elevator showed that it was at her floor and stopped.
“Ding!”
The elevator door opened and Pei Huai stood in the elevator with a few drinks in his hands.
Su Ji smiled. At the moment, the loneliness was completely gone.
