Chapter 173: Chapter 177: Private Space (2)

Yu Zexiao didn’t continue to waste words with Lu Jiayuan, his face cold as he followed the host towards the studio.

---------------------

Inside the room, Jian Anning’s phone call finally got through to Yin Maohui, who was currently in a meeting. The call had been transferred to Hong Minjun; normally, before a show, Hong Minjun would repeatedly instruct Jian Anning to report any updates to her—she probably knew that Yu Zexiao usually disliked these promotional activities. He felt they were a waste of time; he would rather go home and play the piano. However, the reason for Jian Anning’s call today came as a surprise. She began with, "Sister Minjun, I really can’t stand being with Yu Zexiao any longer. I plan to submit my resignation to the company tomorrow. Please understand."

While holding the receiver, Hong Minjun glanced at the wall clock in the hallway. The time was correct; she hadn’t time-traveled, so why did she hear such a strange voice from the phone?

She was a bit confused and immediately said, "Well, President Yin is still in a meeting inside. Let’s talk about it later."

After saying that, she quickly hung up the phone, took three seconds to collect her thoughts, and finally realized what had just happened.

Jian Anning really was an odd one. Usually, it was Yu Zexiao himself who would call to say he wanted to fire some assistant. Only she had come to her several times to share her grievances about being unable to stay on and wanting to resign and leave.

Why couldn’t she stay? Hong Minjun obviously knew that Yu Zexiao was a selfish, arrogant, and picky tyrant who was difficult to get along with. Moreover, he constantly caused various minor troubles, like refusing to go to a show he had originally agreed to, or rejecting an endorsement because he felt the other party’s female manager was leering at him. In the end, it resulted in everyone else scrambling to clean up the mess for him.

But after all, he was Yu Zexiao!

Moreover, wasn’t Jian Anning in an intimate relationship with Yu Zexiao... She had clearly seen her cozily cuddling with Yu Zexiao on the couch last time. She was also the only assistant whom Yu Zexiao had earnestly asked to stay. If one were to say there was nothing fishy between the two of them... who would believe that!

Even though Yu Zexiao was arrogant, capricious, and picky, there was one thing certainly admirable about him—he absolutely didn’t mess around with male-female relationships! Not only was this a rare exception in the glitzy and vague entertainment industry, but even in society at large, it was truly valuable. Moreover, he was so wealthy, and his songs were so enjoyable to listen to...

After learning about their relationship, Hong Minjun even envied her a little. Yu Zexiao was a national idol, who wouldn’t want to have something to do with him? Of course, she didn’t believe that the relationship between Yu Zexiao and Jian Anning was serious. But even if it was just for fun, being with Yu Zexiao, a handsome guy with both talent and looks, was definitely a win for Jian Anning!

Yet, she repeatedly came to ask to resign, which really was...

Before Hong Minjun could make a call, another call came through, and this time it truly startled her! It was a call from Yu Zexiao himself!

She immediately answered, and sure enough, Yu Zexiao’s rhythmic voice sounded a bit anxious on the other end as he asked, "Did Assistant Jian contact you just now?"
