"Uh-huh, Mr. Gu asked... No, I said it as you instructed, he believed me..."
"Miss, in my opinion, you should let Mr. Gu know that it was you who brought him back last night and took care of him for the whole night... How can you be certain that Mr. Gu will be unhappy if he finds out?"
……
On the other end of the phone, Qin Zhi'ai stared at the bright sunlight outside the window, pondered for a moment, before speaking softly: "He's already unhappy, no need to make him unhappier with uncertainty."
……
Although Qin Zhi Ai's words were spoken very calmly, without any hint of sadness, the housekeeper still felt a pang in his heart.
In the past, Little Sister would often nag and bother Mr. Gu without reason.
She really thinks that Miss is very ignorant and not genuinely fond of Mr. Gu, but just covets the honor and status he brings her, wanting to cling to it tightly.
It wasn't until now that she realized she had misjudged Xiaojie, and that Xiaojie was genuinely good to Mr. Gu.
The housekeeper held the receiver, walked a little spirit, and then smiled and changed the subject: "Miss, you don't know, Mr. Gu likes your cooking very much, he ate more than usual today!"
Qin Zhi'ai heard this sentence, and a faint smile appeared at the bottom of her eyes. She continued to chat casually with the butler for another two sentences before hanging up the phone.
The mobile phone was forgotten to be charged when going out in the morning. Qin Zhi Ai found a charger and had just plugged it into the power source when the door was pushed open.
It was Zhou Jing who came in, with a face full of anger: "Just right, I was just about to call you out to meet up, and you happened to come to the company today!"
Compared to Zhou Jing's anger, Qin Zhi'ai seemed exceptionally calm. She put her phone on the table and turned to Zhou Jing: "What's wrong?"
"These past few days have been infuriating!" Zhou Jing tossed her bag heavily onto the sofa and hastily opened her mouth: "You know, that ancient costume drama we're planning to start filming next month? The one with a 100 million yuan salary?"
Qin Zhi Ai nodded slightly and remained silent.
"That drama has a dual female lead setting, one is you and the other is Lin Yi. Originally when signing the contract, it was discussed that your role would be more prominent. But as a result, Lin Yi, that little cheap thing, somehow managed to pull in tens of millions of investment from who-knows-where over the past two days, causing the latest script to cut out many of your scenes. You are currently at a higher position than Lin Yi, and it's clear that this drama relies on you and the male lead to carry the show. But with your role being stripped away like this, once it comes out, this drama will surely be a huge hit, and wouldn't that just mean you've become a stepping stone for someone else?"
Zhou Bing huffed and puffed, lifted her hand, smoothed out her hair, stared out the window for a while, then made up her mind: "Alright, go find Director Gu."
Qin Zhi's eyebrows furrowed: "Gu Yu Sheng?"
"Yes, it's Gu Yu Sheng!" Zhou Jing nodded firmly, then shook her head: "No, it's Gu Yu Sheng who will deal with this, but if you go find him, he might not necessarily help you. In the past, when Xiao Ke encountered any tricky problems in the entertainment circle, she would always go find Mr. Gu, so you should also go find Mr. Gu. Anyway, Mr. Gu will definitely help Xiao Ke, and when Mr. Gu intervenes, Gu Yu Sheng will definitely handle this matter."
