Chapter 1597: She's Into Women

“Come on, dress me up.”

Nan Jiaojiao asked, “Aren’t you finding someone else for Miss Shu?”

Shu Jin glanced at her and laughed, “Little girl, getting greedy isn’t a good thing. You should have heard that I have a bad temper.”

Chu Yao has an even worse temper than hers.

People like her, it’s a wonder if Nan Jiaojiao would be afraid.

She could have stayed silent at this moment, but she just had to say “hmm,” and raised her hand to take a Cheongsam from the hanger.

She followed Shu Jin into the dressing room.

When Nan Jiaojiao came out, Zhang Zhao was leaning against the back of the sofa with his arms crossed, the word “FAILED” big on the phone screen. He looked at Nan Jiaojiao, his gaze lightly scanning from top to bottom, stopping below the waist, and the smile on his mouth deepened slightly.

“What’s your name?”

“Nan Jiaojiao.”

“The Queen really likes you,” Zhang Zhao gestured towards the dressing room, “She fell for your design right away, even asked Director Chen about you, but you better be careful, she’s into both women and men.”

Nan Jiaojiao’s fingers clenched slightly.

When he said that, she found it quite interesting.

She lifted her eyes and gave Zhang Zhao a glance—just a glance, revealing nothing, immediately reigning in her curiosity.

Zhang Zhao noticed he hadn’t provoked her, and deliberately said, “She’s into young stars too, goes for both genders, mainly looks at faces, and with a face like yours, you should avoid showing up around her too much.

Nan Jiaojiao said nothing, calmly organizing the Cheongsams on the rack.

Zhang Zhao leaned closer, “Are you really close to my goddess?”

Nan Jiaojiao replied with two words, “Acquainted.”

“Acquainted is good enough, if she ever wants to fire Sister Mi, I’d immediately go to her side.”

Nan Jiaojiao gave him an inexplicable look.

Zhang Zhao interpreted the look himself, “With Sister Mi there, I’d be nothing but a sidekick if I went over. I have to keep face too, there can only be one manager by her side—me.”

Then he added, “If Sister Mi leaves.”

Nan Jiaojiao thought to herself, Sister Mi wouldn’t leave, her contract’s with Shengjing, Mo Tingshen wouldn’t let her go. Besides the salary from the company, Chu Yao often slips her some extra money in private. Everyone in the agent circle knows she’s at the top, the title of gold-medal manager isn’t just for show. Chu Yao was in jail for three years, and she waited all that time without managing another artist, staying true to Chu Yao till she got out.

“Good luck,” Nan Jiaojiao said politely.

Zhang Zhao was overjoyed.

His excitement deflated in a second when he saw Shu Jin come out, and he grunted, “Dressed up quite like a person.”

Shu Jin tossed the extinguished cigarette onto him.

The sparks almost burned a hole in his clothes. Furious, Zhang Zhao cursed under his breath as he followed her to the set.

The male lead hadn’t joined the crew yet; he was only appearing in the second half of the movie. For these few days, they’d be filming scenes for the female lead and the second female lead.

Nan Jiaojiao and Su Miaotong stayed with the crew; over several days, they seldom saw Shen Bin. Only during meetings would he appear, or if he came to the set, he’d be by Director Chen and Zhou Po’s side, claiming to understand the plot and character traits for better creativity.

As a result, within a week, the women’s costumes for the entire drama were all designed and finalized.

When Zhou Po received the final drafts, his eyes sparkled with excitement, praising her profusely. Director Chen also wanted to praise her, but a single glance from Nan Jiaojiao shut him up. He was guilty and lacked the guts, as people who do bad things rarely have much confidence.
