Chapter 175: Chapter 179: Retention (1)

"Uncle Yin, I’m sorry, but I can no longer continue as Yu Zexiao’s assistant. I hope you can approve my resignation," said Jian Anning.

"Not now!" Yin Maohui flatly refused, "I have said many times, Anning, what’s gotten into you this time? The company has the intention to nurture you, values you, yet at a time when we need you most, you create all these problems!"

Yin Maohui was also overwhelmed recently. The films he had invested in last year and this year had mediocre performances in Huaxia Country, and he had been hoping to use Yu Zexiao’s TV show as a turnaround. Now, when it was crunch time, absolutely no problems could arise!

Jian Anning could tell that Yin Maohui was angry, but she still insisted, "Uncle Yin, I really can’t work with Yu Zexiao any longer. I am asking to resign! Or, if you prefer, you can just transfer me back. No matter what job you give me, whichever star you send me to, I won’t say another word..."

"Not now!" Yin Maohui’s tone became stern, "You make it sound easy, changing assistants at a critical moment! Have you thought about the arrangements the company has already made? It’s not so easy to just switch. Even if a new assistant is chosen, it takes time to hand over the work, to get used to Zexiao, and it’s not guaranteed that everything will be arranged well."

Having given Jian Anning a fierce reprimand, Yin Maohui then took a deep breath and softened his tone to console her, "Anning, over the years countless assistants have been replaced for Zexiao, and none has satisfied him. Only you have managed both to satisfy him and to supervise his work. I don’t feel reassured with other assistants. He is incredibly busy, with great pressure, and is not very accustomed to the environment abroad. Under such circumstances, it’s inevitable that various emotions will arise. I hope you can bear with it a little longer."

"It’s not like that. It’s just that..." Jian Anning sighed. How could she say it? Could she say that Yu Zexiao not only inappropriately touched her on a regular basis but also interfered with her personal life? She was nearly driven insane by Yu Zexiao and truly couldn’t stand it anymore.

"Anning, just go the extra mile. Both of you are young, and about the same age. Zexiao might be a bit arrogant, but he is not a bad person. Communicate well, and there’s nothing that cannot be resolved," Yin Maohui comforted again, "This way, if Zexiao is at fault this time, I’ll have him apologize to you. Once you talk it out, things will be all right. Do your best; I believe you won’t disappoint me."

"It’s not like that, Uncle Yin, I..."

But Yin Maohui didn’t give her the chance to continue, "That’s it, I have a meeting to attend. If there’s anything, talk to Minjun."

"Beep—Beep——" The phone was suddenly hung up, and Jian Anning was on the verge of tears.

She initially thought Yin Maohui would bring up that baseless accusation of 900,000, but instead, after flatly rejecting her first, he tried to emotionally manipulate her with kindness and logic, using both carrot and stick to pressure her into staying.

As Jian Anning stewed in frustration, she received a call from Hong Minjun, "The boss has already told me his decision. Zexiao can be a bit willful. If he has done something wrong, I’ll make him apologize to you! I guarantee he won’t make the same mistake again. You can stay by his side with peace of mind."
