In the end, Aileen angrily left. Meanwhile, Ming Shu was idly holding the phone reading comments online, a cup of tea and a small snack bag at hand.

"Sister Jiang Nian, where did you get that snack?" Tian Yuan encountered such a scene as soon as she returned from seeing Aileen off. She immediately went over to block access to the bag and said, "Stop eating! What would you do if you got fat?"

Tian Yuan was almost crying. Sister Aileen was already enough for me, why did Sister Jiang Nian choose to be so weird now too...

Ming Shu tried to take her snack back, watching Tian Yuan with melting eyes. "Little Yuanzi, give it back."

"No way. Sister Aileen told you to cut back on food." Tian Yuan quickly wrapped up the bag and stepped back.

Sister Jiang Nian is still in the mood to eat? Is this what people call turning grief and indignation into appetite?

Her Sister Jiang Nian did not have this skill previously...

Or was it newly acquired?

Organizing her thoughts, Tian Yuan comfortingly told Ming Shu, "Sister Jiang Nian, it's actually not a big deal. You don't have to worry about it too much, Sister Aileen will definitely fix it for you."

Although, she didn't believe that herself.

"Ugh, I'm so worried," Ming Shu said.

Hearing this, Tian Yuan finally relaxed. After going through what she had just now, Sister Jiang Nian must be anxious. She released a small sigh and said carefully, "Sister Jiang Nian, you..."

"I'm afraid I'll starve to death if you don't return my snack." Ming Shu held out her hands with a smile.

"..."

She stomped her feet, anger turning her face to a bulging bun. Sister Jiang Nian always knew how to tease her.

Tian Yuan left the lounge with the snack, looking like she was going to complain to someone in tears.

"Wait, leave the snack!"

Ming Shu felt a bit depleted after losing the food. Her mouth began twisting in grief.

She was hungry.

She was so hungry she didn't have the strength to smile.

Let's go out for some food.

...

Ning Keqing returned at dusk since she had to film a scene in the evening.

Everyone on the set now knew she was Li Shaonan's chosen and desperately sought any chance to please her.

But Ning Keqing still wore the same meek face. She didn't treat them arrogantly because of Li Shaonan.

This unintentionally won her a very favorable impression.

Ming Shu thought Ning Keqing might ask her Money Boss to take revenge on Jiang Nian, yet several days passed and nothing happened. The heat brought on by Jiang Nian bullying a newbie was beginning to fade.

Knowing to wait for a better opportunity—it seemed Ning Keqing had gotten her IQ back.

Interesting. Perhaps it's time to find another chance to obtain some Hatred Points.

"Sister Jiang Nian, there's a banquet this evening that Sister Aileen wants you to attend," Tian Yuan reported to Ming Shu, holding the phone.

A banquet...
