Qian Ge was completely confused until she heard Ji Yi gently shriek, “ah!” Qian Ge turned her head to glance at the source of the noise. Her eyes stared at the feet right in front of her then she turned to see Ji Yi’s innocent, pitiful face spread out at her feet.
Qian Ge froze on the spot, and after three whole seconds, she lowered her head and looked over at her hand.
She stared at her palms repeatedly for a while and that was when the thought crossed her mind: I clearly didn’t use that much strength just now… How did Ji Yi fall to the ground?’
When Zhuang Yi went to get some sushi, she happened to hear someone whisper, “Qian Ge got into an argument with someone,” so she curiously glanced over to where Qian Ge was standing.
Even though half of Ji Yi’s body was blocked from view by someone, Zhuang Yi could tell from the corner of her dress that the woman standing in front of Qian Ge with her arched body was Ji Yi. Without hesitation, she dropped the plate and rushed over to where Qian Ge and Ji Yi were standing.
Since Ji Yi accidentally spilled a cocktail over Qian Ge’s body and was apologizing profusely, the situation between the two of them already caused quite a few people to peer over.
Zhuang Yi apologized a few times consecutively before she managed to push her way through the wall of people. She was just about to say “Excuse me” to the man in front of her when she heard Ji Yi scream. She raised her head and looked over the man’s shoulder to see Ji Yi spread out across the floor.
“Xiao Yi!” Zhuang Yi screamed Ji Yi’s name reflexively. She wanted to say something to the people blocking her path, but the words immediately disappeared from her throat. She pushed the man in front out of the way, leaped over to Ji Yi’s side and crouched down. “Xiao Yi, what happened? Are you hurt?”
Ji Yi covered her ankle and pretended to look pitiful. She shook her head at Zhuang Yi.
Seeing her like this, Zhuang Yi suddenly got angry. She raised her head and without thinking twice, she spoke to Qian Ge who was standing in front of them, “Miss Qian, how could you push someone!”
From the moment Ji Yi fell down until now, Qian Ge had remained in a daze. With Zhuang Yi’s question, she suddenly seemed to snap back to reality.
Qian Ge gaped, instinctively defending herself, “I…”
She wanted to say, “I didn’t push her,” but she only managed to blurt out the first word when Ji Yi weakly cried from the floor, “Zhuang Yi, I was wrong… I accidentally spilled a cocktail over Qian Ge. It makes sense for her to be unhappy.”
It makes sense for me to be unhappy… She’s basically turning things around and saying I really did push her just now?
Qian Ge’s chest suddenly started to burn up.
“What do you mean by ‘It makes sense for her to be unhappy’?!” Zhuang Yi retorted in a stern voice: “You didn’t spill your drink on purpose. Miss Qian, as Ji Yi’s manager, I think you have to apologize to Ji Yi right no-…”
“Zhuang Yi!” Ji Yi forcefully reached her hand out and covered Zhuang Yi’s mouth. Then, she acted as though she was trying to cover up Zhuang Yi’s words as she spoke with agitation, “Zhuang Yi, you don’t have to say anything. It really was my fault…”
As she spoke, Ji Yi turned her head and looked over at Qian Ge. “Qian Jie, I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. My manager has a bad temper. Don’t take it at heart!”
