Chapter 32 - Who Gave You The Courage To Reject The Person I Approved Of
Liang Zixuan was so near to the phone that she could easily hear every word coming from the other end.
Her heart, which had been soothed by the phone call, began to pound again. She gazed uneasily at Han Yuanjun and watched him hang up the phone after saying, 'Understood.'
"Young Master Han." Liang Zixuan frowned. The seriousness on her face made her look like a female fighter. She was strong and firm. "They must be here for me. I will deal with them."
Han Yuanjun put his cell phone back, glanced at her, and said with a stern look, "Didn't I say I won't let anyone bully you? These words are not just for show."
After saying that, he released his grip from her and pushed her to the sofa. "Wait for me here obediently, you are not allowed to go anywhere."
"Young Master Han!" Liang Zixuan wanted to stand up, but Han Yuanjun pushed her shoulder down forcefully.
She could only lift her head and insisted, "This is my personal problem, I can handle it on my own."
Han Yuanjun squatted in front of her. With a cold smile, he then said in a domineering and strong manner, "Your problem is my problem, whether you are willing or not!"
Without giving her a chance to reject it, Han Yuanjun got up and walked out of the room.
Liang Zixuan watched as the door closed loudly in front of her eyes. Her heart felt like it was being pulled by something. It hurts a little.
This was the first time in her two lives that she was protected like this. It felt like being held in someone's palm, like she was dreaming.
However, she was wrong.
Jiang Huifang and Wei Xiaoqing didn't come here because they knew Liang Zixuan was here, but because Zhu Sheng was in a hurry when accepting the task of making an album for Qin Yu, he contacted Wei Xiaoqing.
He wanted to buy two songs from her.
Jiang Huifang and Wei Xiaoqing were brought to the office by Shi Tianjian, where Zhu Sheng was.
Seeing Zhu Sheng, Wei Xiaoqing immediately walked over, smiling. "Hello, Director Zhu. We have an appointment at two-thirty."
Zhu Sheng turned to face her, still maintaining his cold and arrogant face. "Miss Wei, I was planning to buy two songs from you, but unfortunately, I just found someone else. The interview went very well, and she was exactly who I was looking for. I'm sorry for wasting your time by coming here."
As he spoke, the coldness on his face could be clearly seen.
Jiang Huifang was not happy at all when she heard this. "What do you mean? Don't tell us we've come here for nothing?"
Her voice was not loud, but loud enough to be heard by everyone in the office. Quite a few people stuck their heads out to see the commotion.
Although Wei Xiaoqing was also unhappy, she really didn't dare offend people from Han Group Media. She grabbed Jiang Huifang's dress, signaling her to stop talking.
Wei Xiaoqing still had a harmless smile on her face. "Director Zhu, as far as I know, a good love song that is suitable for campus students is rare to find. May I know who the person is? How could you be so pleased with her?"
Although Wei Xiaoqing didn't know how to compose lyrics, she knew all the celebrities in the industry. Hence, she naturally knew Zhu Sheng's name and his personality.
To be able to make him feel pleased, Wei Xiaoqing thought about how amazingly the person was to be able to earn appreciation.
Zhu Sheng didn't want to hide anything and wanted the mother-daughter pair to leave as soon as possible, so he casually replied, "Liang Zixuan."
"Liang Zixuan?!" Jiang Huifang and Wei Xiaoqing said it at the same time. They looked at Zhu Sheng in disbelief. It was as if a bomb had been thrown at their heads and exploded with a loud bang.
Zhu Sheng looked at them and asked in surprise, "You two know her?"
Jiang Huifang's heart was filled with shock and fear. She wanted to take this opportunity to disrupt Liang Zixuan's work. She sneered, "I know her, of course, I do know her!"
"Liang Zixuan used to be Xiaoqing's makeup artist, but because her hands and feet were dirty¹, she didn't dare come to work for these three days. I really didn't think that she would really run to Han Group Media."
The words' dirty hands and feet' immediately made Zhu Sheng's heart go cold.
Wei Xiaoqing was a genuine singer, and all of her songs were written by herself. If Liang Zixuan's hands and feet were dirty, could it be that she stole Wei Xiaoqing's song, and that's why she ran out?
And what about the song that was written in the last half hour? Did that mean Wei Xiaoqing wrote it and Liang Zixuan memorized and stole it?
Actually, there were many flaws in Jiang Huifang's words, Zhu Sheng could grasp it just by thinking about it.
Still, the words' dirty hands and feet' had affected his state of mind, so, naturally, he misunderstood Jiang Huifang's words.
Seeing Zhu Sheng's skeptical face, Jiang Huifang knew that she had succeeded and tried her best to make him hate Liang Zixuan.
"Liang Zixuan has a terrible character! She was narrow-minded and selfish, and her hands and feet were not clean. That's why I fired her!"
Zhu Sheng, who originally admired Liang Zixuan's character, when hearing this, his face immediately became dark. Wei Xiaoqing blinked and grabbed Jiang Huifang's hand as if she was a good person. She whispered, "Mom, don't say it anymore."
Jiang Huifang turned to look at her and sighed. "You, your heart is too good. Liang Zixuan had done many embarrassing things, but you kept them hidden just to protect her."
Wei Xiaoqing looked down and didn't say anything, but a sinister smile flashed past her eyes.
Jiang Huifang patted Wei Xiaoqing's hand, then turned around and said to Zhu Sheng, "Director Zhu, don't be fooled by Liang Zixuan's appearance! She can't stand seeing other people happy. As a boss, I just said a few words to her, and she dared to slap my face!"
"That's fine because I saw that she was young and had a temper, so I didn't bother with her. But guess what? She also stole our stuff while she talked about bad things about Xiaoqing and me outside. Even Xiaoqing's boyfriend is someone that she wants to seduce. Tell me, how does your Han Group Media set its sights on someone like her?"
Although everyone had seen the news yesterday, they only found out about the scandal between Jiang Huifang and Wei Xiaoqing, but no one knew that Liang Zixuan was Wei Xiaoqing's sister.
Otherwise, Jiang Huifang's words would immediately backfire.
Now, not to mention those who came to watch the show, even Zhu Sheng felt disgusted towards Liang Zixuan. His face alternated between green and blue as his lips drew a straight line.
At this moment, Wei Xiaoqing raised her head and frowned, pretending to grumble. "I ended up writing two new songs some time ago, but she stole them. I was going to ask her to return it, but she refused. She even slapped me and embarrassed me in front of everyone."
Wei Xiaoqing raised her hand to cover her face.
Thinking of Liang Zixuan's hypocrisy just now, Zhu Sheng didn't expect that she would be a person who likes to steal someone's work!
Zhu Sheng immediately got angry and called Shi Tianjian, "Go to the HR Department and tell them that I don't want Liang Zixuan here anymore!"
Just as he completed his sentence, a low, cold voice came from the door, "Director Zhu, who gave you the courage to reject the person I approved of?"
