Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon’s Sweetheart

Chapter 134: Chapter 134 Zhou Lu Resigns

“Business World” had gone through over a hundred days of intense shooting and finally wrapped up.

Director Li Jiahua wanted to host a wrap party for the entire crew, but when the executive producer reached Cheng Jingshu, she declined.

“Sister Jingshu, you’re our lead actress. It wouldn’t be the same without you, would it?”

“It’s okay, you all celebrate. I’m a bit tired today; I want to go back early and rest.”

Cheng Jingshu ‘smiled’ as she declined. How could she possibly attend the wrap party?

Ever since Ye Xian joined the production, she had loathed it deeply—dealing with such a disgusting person flaunting in front of her, stealing her limelight, and even causing Wanze to lose his temper with her. If it weren’t for Star Entertainment’s strict penalties for breaching contracts, she would have terminated her contract with “Business World” long ago!

Now that the shooting was over, she was finally free. She didn’t want to spend another moment in this dreadful production team.

“Xiao Wen, what are you dilly-dallying for? Hurry up and pack, you’re as slow as a pig!”

After touching up her makeup, Cheng Jingshu impatiently yelled at Zhou Lu.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Lu didn’t speed up her actions but instead put down her makeup box and stood up to face her.

“What are you looking at me for? Hurry up and…”

“Sister Jingshu, I’ve been your assistant for two years, and now that this drama has also wrapped up, I would like to formally resign.”

“What?” Cheng Jingshu looked at her amusedly, “Did I hear that right? You’re resigning?”

“Yes.”

“Your grandmother’s diabetes is cured?”

“No.”

“And you still want to leave?”

“That’s none of your concern.”

“Huh.” Cheng Jingshu scoffed, sizing her up, “You speak so confidently. It looks like you must have found some money somewhere else. Where from? You didn’t go sell yourself, did you?”

“You… Sister Jingshu, please be more respectful.”

Zhou Lu looked at her, her usually timid expression now extremely tense.

“More respectful?” Cheng Jingshu laughed louder, “What, now that you’ve found a sugar daddy, you’re suddenly concerned about your dignity? Weren’t you happy when I used to scold you?”

“Who is that man? Someone from the industry? I didn’t expect you to be so capable, secretly getting involved in unsavory dealings behind my back. Did you tell him you were my assistant so he would agree to be with you?”

No one understood the hypocrisy and harshness beneath Cheng Jingshu’s fake pleasantness better than Zhou Lu, and there was no point in arguing any further.

Zhou Lu didn’t want to deal with her anymore and turned to leave.

“Stop, I said stop!”

Cheng Jingshu grabbed her. Although she wanted to scold this ungrateful wretch, finding a new assistant was really troublesome, especially one who would tolerate her bad temper piled up throughout the day. It was extremely difficult. She had spent time training her perfectly; she couldn’t just let her walk away.@@novelbin@@

“Xiao Wen, don’t say I didn’t warn you. The men in the entertainment industry are all monsters, gentlemen on the surface but greedy and lecherous behind the scenes. Don’t be fooled by some money, or you’ll end up losing everything.”

“Ye Xian is not that kind of person!”

In her agitation, Zhou Lu blurted out Ye Xian’s name.

At the mention of Ye Xian’s name, Cheng Jingshu’s expression drastically changed, “What did you say?”

Zhou Lu tightened her grip, deciding to let it be, for she would find out sooner or later now that she was going to stay by Ye Xian’s side.

“After I resign, I’m going to become Ye Xian’s assistant.”

“Are you insane? You want to be that slut’s assistant?”

Cheng Jingshu’s eyes widened abruptly, her sharp anger seeming almost to leap out.
