Chapter 751: Even if I Touch You Like I Did Today_1

“Yes.” Zimo affirmed vehemently.

“Good,” Mu Lingchuan’s eyes contained a hint of amusement, “then, you’ll stay on in this production crew, following that martial master.”

“I won’t!” Unexpectedly, as soon as these words left his mouth, Zimo immediately rejected them.

Her eyes flickered with something, disdain and anger, but when Mu Lingchuan asked her why, she couldn’t articulate a reason.

“Staying with that martial master might be a good idea. Use the time during work to apologize to him and make amends.”

Mu Lingchuan continued to lean against the back of his chair, calmly watching the girl standing a dozen steps away from him.

That is a ten steps distance from his desk.

Ten steps, exceeding the safe distance between two people, especially since he was currently seated.

A seated person simply doesn’t give off much of a threatening aura to others.

A normal employee coming in to talk to him would be no more than two steps away from his desk.

But this girl, she was too far away.

Could her guard really be up this high?

“So?” he asked again.

Zimo clenched her fists tightly, her chest continually heaving.

One could tell she was conflicted.

But in the end, she bit her lip hard, suppressing the resentment in her heart, and gently nodded.

However, the injustices hidden deep in her eyes were impossible to conceal.

“Alright then, I will keep you on the team, and assign you to stay with that martial master.”

Mu Lingchuan inexplicably felt a slight urge to smoke, he didn’t know why.

But in the end, he only continued to gaze at her indifferently, speaking words so cold it is unsettling.

“Even if he touches you like he did today, as long as you can bear it, tolerate it.

Just grit your teeth and it’ll pass, won’t it?”

“You…” Zimo suddenly looked up at him, staring at his resolute face, shocked, “you…know?”

“What happens within Feixue, all it takes is a simple investigation.

What can’t be found out?”

Mu Lingchuan was simply curious, burdened with so much grievance, why wouldn’t she utter a word?

“Is it because of Xiaxia? Are you afraid she’ll be in a difficult position with me?”

What kind of feelings would allow a girl to protect another girl to such an extent?

He had always thought that the friendship among girls was as transient as a handkerchief, not profound at all.

Just a slight conflict of interest, or a hint of jealousy, and that so-called friendship will crumble instantly.

But Zimo’s protection of Baili Xia has fundamentally challenged his understanding of the relationships between women.

Who knows what good deeds Baili Xia did in her past life to have such a good friend in this life.

But Zimo only looked at him and said seriously, “The matter has nothing to do with Xiaxia, she just wanted to help me find a job out of goodwill.”

Mu Lingchuan didn’t say a word, took another indifferent glance at her, then closed his notebook and started packing up.

After a long period of not getting any response from him, Zimo hesitated for a while before asking in a soft voice, “So…can I return to work at Feixue tomorrow?”

“Would you rather be groped by him again just to come to work?

You,” he sighed, “are not cut out for acting.”

She’s quiet and not sociable.

If she joins, she’ll just be bullied.

“I…I can be more cautious, if he…if…”

“If he continues to harass, will you continue to fight him until he’s losing his teeth everywhere?” He shook his head, exasperated.

At this rate, how much compensation will he have to pay on behalf of such a temporary actress?

Today it was the martial master, tomorrow, could it be some male actors?
