Chapter 181: Chapter 185: Retention (7)

However, it was clear that Jiang Xuanqi really didn’t like Jian Anning. Especially just now on the show, when everyone asked her about her ideal type of guy, she smiled and said, "Of course it’s the handsome kind. A sunny temperament, someone who understands music, loves art, just like the Prince Charming in every girl’s heart!"

Then, with a tender and affectionate look in her eyes, she gazed at Yu Zexiao.

And Yu Zexiao didn’t show any dissatisfaction, smiling the whole time. It really seemed like the two of them were in that so-called "scandalous relationship"!

Just now, she had also overheard the quarrel between Yu Zexiao and Jian Anning and guessed that there was conflict between them again.

At this moment, seeing Yu Zexiao go out of his way to leap off the stage, with Jian Anning still frowning and looking displeased, when else would she torment her if not now?

She immediately let out a laugh, her voice shrill, "Yo, we’re all taking a group photo here, what’s a little assistant doing mixing in?"

Instantly, the atmosphere at the scene tensed up!

All eyes turned to look at her.

It was very quiet, no one spoke. Those in the crew all knew Jiang Xuanqi did not get along with Jian Anning. Jiang Xuanqi was naturally a famed rising starlet in the entertainment industry with high status. But Jian Anning, even though she argued and fussed with Yu Zexiao, at crucial moments, he would still protect her. So, when seeing this dynamic, the group from the crew pretended to be oblivious.

The production team members were also unsure of the current situation. After all, Yu Zexiao had just displayed anger, although they thought it was "Yin Maohui’s" influence that had subdued him and made him cooperate with the program. But, this little assistant had quite a bit of influence, at least, her words could get through to Yu Zexiao.

The best action for now was to ignore it all, as Yu Zexiao and Jiang Xuanqi were just part of a one-time show with them. It wasn’t worth it to create friction with Yu Zexiao over Jiang Xuanqi.

Yu Zexiao frowned, his grip on Jian Anning’s arm steadfast, not letting go. He tilted his head back slightly, utterly annoyed with this irritating Jiang Xuanqi! As he was just about to speak up and scold her, someone else beat him to it, "Vincent, you go down first. Just now, Miss Jiang said that assistants don’t have the right to be photographed with us."

It was Lu Jiayuan! His face was smiling, his expression genial and his voice quite loud. It sounded like it was out of consideration for his assistant Vincent.

However, the words were incredibly cunning!

With that statement, numerous assistants in the queue, including the host’s assistants, the on-site assistants, and—Jiang Xuanqi’s own assistant Xiao Qiang, were instantly stunned. That’s right, if Yu Zexiao’s assistant wasn’t allowed up here, which of you could compare with Yu Zexiao’s assistant?

Out of all you people, who could compare with Yu Zexiao!

Although Lu Jiayuan didn’t openly speak up for Jian Anning with that remark, the way it drew fire was indeed ruthless!

In an instant, he had directed all the hostility in the room squarely at Jiang Xuanqi. Practically all the assistants and crew members, who had already lined up ready for the group photo, hesitated and started emerging. Although nobody said anything, the dissatisfaction was evident on their faces, all looking towards Jiang Xuanqi!

Jiang Xuanqi never expected that what was merely an attempt to target Jian Anning could be turned around by a casually uttered sentence from Lu Jiayuan, leaving her in a position where she was disliked by everyone!
