Chapter 7 – Dramatic faker
As Su Yi silently slandered Chu Ying, the guy in question was sitting in his office, his phone put aside, the screen lit up as it downloaded the Weibo App.
He asked, “Who’s the one who decided on this investment?”
The assistant stood humbly before the table, looking over at this and seeing that it was an investment into a TV series. “It should be Assistant Director Qi.”
Chu Ying continued, “The cast is chosen?”
“Not yet,” the assistant said. “But it will be decided by tomorrow.”
Ding!
The phone sounded once.
Chu Ying eyed it, lifting it up and opening the message.
Su Yi had sent a voice message.
He hesitated for a moment, before opening it.
“I was a little drunk yesterday, thanks for sending me home.” The background noise was rather loud: her heels clicking on the floor was audible. “As a thanks, I can treat you to dinner, I’m at Chu Xin Mall, see if you’re available… hey! What are you doing!? Hey!”
The voice message ended abruptly.
Chu Ying furrowed his brows, poking around his phone for a moment before looking up and asking, “How do you make a call on WeChat?”
“Ah?” His assistant got caught off guard for a moment, before he immediately got to teaching Chu Ying how to make a call on WeChat.
No one picked up, though the assistant’s phone rang at this time.
After listening to a few sentences, the assistant covered the speaker and said, “Director Chu, there’s some issue happening at Chu Xin Mall.”
If it’s a small thing there’s no need to report it to the boss, he could just have someone handle it, but when Chu Ying was listening to the voice message just now he’d put it on speaker and the assistant had heard everything.
Chu Ying said nothing, picking up his phone and leaving the office.
The moment he reached the mall, someone in charge had come up to him, smiling as they said, “Oh! Director Chu, what is it that troubles you to make this trip?”
Chu Ying said, “What happened?”
“It’s a little thing, a little thing.” The person waved his hand, “It’s already being settled, you don’t need to worry about it.”
Chu Ying coldly glanced at him.
“It’s, it’s like this,” the person was starting to sweat. “There’s a female customer who wanted to return a piece of clothing bought the day before yesterday, but the clothing had signs of having been washed but there’s nothing wrong with its quality so our salesperson refused her request. But she was rather determined and it got physical.”
“And?”
The person in charge had intended to hide the rest, but he hadn’t expected the new boss to be this sharp and know there was something more to it. He could only continue, “Then… another female customer couldn’t stand it anymore and returned the favour for the salesperson.”
Chu Ying raised a brow. “She got physical too?”
“Yeah,” the person in charge said. “And that female customer was a celebrity too, this, so, it’s a little problematic.”
“Where are they?” Chu Ying took a few steps before asking, “Was she hurt?”
“Yes, that celebrity was rather fierce, she managed to make the customer cry.”
“…” Chu Ying stopped, unable to help the smile threatening to show itself. “Was that actress hurt?”
The person in charge hurriedly shook his head. “No, if she was hurt this would become a huge issue.”
He’d just reached outside of the office when he heard the sounds coming from inside.
A woman was sobbing. “Don’t you leave! Don’t you dare leave! I’m going to sue you!”
“I’m not leaving, you haven’t apologized to this lady over here, why would I leave?” It was a familiar voice, taunting and rather attention-grabbing, just a little heavier and thicker.
Another female voice interrupted. “Talk a little less!”
Chu Ying stood at the door and finally got a good look at what was happening inside.
On the sofa to the left sat a lady, a little fat, her make-up messed up and her hair messed up. She doesn’t look like she’d been badly hurt, but she was dabbing at her eyes with napkins.
On the sofa to the right sat three people, one wearing something simple and clean, the other the salesperson still in uniform, a clear handprint on her face.
The remaining one was clearly Su Yi.
Unlike the person to the left, Su Yi’s hair was draped over her shoulder and she was in a well-fitted dress. On her face was a grey mask that
