Chapter 1758: They’re Here for Me

The two of them were stunned by the blow, dazed for a moment, and feeling even more humiliated, they made a move to hit back.

Nan Jiaojiao didn’t give them a chance to get close, sidestepping swiftly, but because she moved so quickly, they couldn’t stop their momentum as one fell to the ground and the other crashed into the door frame.

Lin Yi was furious, “Nan Jiaojiao, you’re too reckless!”

“I didn’t make a move in the break room, but I don’t like being slandered. Since they said I hit them, I might as well let you see it with your own eyes to cement the accusation. However the company decides to deal with me, I’ll accept.”

Nan Jiaojiao stepped aside, “Please leave, I won’t see you off.”

Lin Yi clutched her chest, boiling with anger, her face livid, pointing at Nan Jiaojiao with a trembling finger, unable to find the right words to curse, she turned her frustration onto Su Miaotong.

“Fine, fine, Su Miaotong, this is the person you brought in, just you wait!”

Lin Yi stomped off briskly in her high heels, her two team members quickly following suit.

Nan Jiaojiao calmly closed the door, shutting out the onlookers who were eager for a show.

Su Miaotong exhaled a breath she had been holding, leaning against the handrail to sit down, pressing her lips tightly, “It’s just too much bullying…”

Nan Jiaojiao was pouring water and handed a cup to Su Miaotong.

Su Miaotong glanced at her, took the water and set it aside, grasping her hands and examining her from top to bottom, “Jiaojiao, are you okay? They didn’t hurt you, did they?”

Nan Jiaojiao: “No.”

“It’s surely because of me that you got involved, I’m really sorry.”

Nan Jiaojiao sat down, “The trouble is of my making, what does it have to do with you?”

“You don’t know…” Su Miaotong hesitated a bit before speaking, “Lin Yi and I joined the company at the same time as Master Yu. We were fiercely competitive back then, nearly got into ugly fights several times. Over the years, our positions have stabilized, and each of us has a group of loyal clients, so the relationship has improved somewhat, but it’s all superficial. Lin Yi has been holding a grudge, waiting to find fault with me.”

She looked at Nan Jiaojiao, “It’s my fault, I originally thought there was no need to tell you about these relationships, I should have given you a heads up earlier, that way you could have been on guard when they troubled you.”

Nan Jiaojiao remained calm, “They can’t make things hard for me, just wait for the notice.”

“But…”

“I’ll take the clothes for the next scene over to Teacher Xiao.”

Nan Jiaojiao went to check the clothes, Su Miaotong followed but couldn’t find the right words, feeling that nothing she said would be quite appropriate. She helped organize and send them to the door, thinking for a moment and then adding, “I’m really sorry, Jiaojiao.”

“I don’t feel you’re dragging me down, I’m not good at workplace relationships to begin with, and they were coming for me, there’s no need for you to feel guilty.”

Nan Jiaojiao truly didn’t know how to comfort people, those were already the best words she could come up with.

Xiao Yu arrived early at the set to observe Shu Jin’s performance, and Nan Jiaojiao was going to his trailer when she happened to bump into Xiao Yu returning at the door.

“Let me do it.”

Xiao Yu quickly stepped over to take the garment rack, surprised by its weight, “It’s quite heavy. I have stairs here, how could you carry it up?”

The garment rack had wheels underneath it, which Xiao Yu hadn’t noticed before. This time he picked it up himself to go up the steps, then looked back to see Nan Jiaojiao still standing below, waiting for him to go in further before moving, “You usually carry it up and down by yourself?”

Nan Jiaojiao: “Yes.”

“Why don’t you find someone to help you?”

“Huh?” Nan Jiaojiao pursed her lips, “Is it that heavy?”

Xiao Yu pointed, “Isn’t this heavy?”
