Wu Yige's face was extremely dark. After returning home, Wu Yige kicked the coffee table so hard that things fell all over the floor.
It was no brainer that something flared his anger when Katrina left to buy food.
Wu Yige went to bed very early that night, and Katrina didn't urge him to read the script. Anyway, they're going to the company regularly starting tomorrow. With this kind of routine, the life of an assistant was still quite chill.
A few minutes before midnight, VP Lin called her and Katrina said that Wu Yige seemed to be fine. After confirming some other schedules, Katrina lay on the bed and scrolled through twitter for a while. twitter was a wilderness of the internet, all kinds of scalding hot tea and sweetened boba was flying through her ghost account.
She scrolled through eight posts about Melanie and Wu Yige's relationship. When she pulled it down, a group of fans were cursing Melanie Lu, saying that she was not worthy of Wu Yige. Melanie Lu's fans retorted a few times and ran away after being scolded. Katrina's mouth twitched, she was an underground girlfriend for a decade, she never knew how it feels to date under public eyes.
Katrina immediately regretted her decision because right next to Wu Yige and Melanie's relationship analysis was the couple of scumbag - Zhang Siyuan and Liu Fei love story.
Love story my ass!
Wu Yige - Melanie Lu and Zhang Siyuan - Liu Fei were the latest public CP. The former was more lowkey than SiFei that had many endorsements together. Although many fans were heartbroken, the general public blessed the two because of Zhang Siyuan's popularity and Liu Fei's debut packaging as a pure goddess.
People shouldn't be gloating about others misfortune indeed, Katrina was talking bad about Wu Yige's petty tantrum, but then her mood was ruined by the cheater's news.
The next day, in the company.
"When will you take me to meet Lin Zhi?"
"Sorry?"
"I'm also her uncle, you should let me meet her. She should be exposed to the better part of society and not hang around you all the time. I can't let Brother Zhan's daughter be a weakling."
Katrina got the urge to throw the heavy Chanel shopping bag to his head.
His jabbing comment didn't hurt her, just annoying. He didn't look down on her intelligence or sociocultural background, he was mocking her lack of talent in athletics and martial arts.
Wang Lin slapped Wu Yige's back and ordered Katrina, "You can go back after lunch and take back the gifts given to him by fans."
After categorizing and security screening the gifts, half of the gifts were already in the car. Wang Media was very strict and immediately tracked down the sender of suspicious and dangerous gifts.
As the top money maker and superstar, Wu Yige didn't lack crazy fans. Katrina never thought that she would run to the security office and legal department more than three times before finally going back to Wu Yige's room.
Before Katrina had lunch, Wu Yige roared: "Where have you gone?! Do you want to get fired?!!"
Katrina hurriedly complained in her heart: Superstar my ass, you still the bad tempered school bully!
"I just finished loading the fans' gifts and stopped by the security team and legal department."
Wu Yige got his personal team to do his styling and make up, those people just finished their work and could only play dead while Katrina was being yelled at.
"Excuses! Excuses!" He threw the hair clip and hair gown on the ground. "Let's go now!"
Katrina held the urge to roll her eyes and took the iPad near him, Wang Lin and the VP had repeatedly told her to urge the crazy man to read his script.
Katrina smiled at the team, "Brother Yi bought everyone a drink. I was in a hurry just now and couldn't take it with me. Please enjoy it once it's here, everyone."
The team member was visibly shocked. One, they knew Wu Yige never did that and it meant it's purely Katrina, which means she moved without permission and still put credit on him! Two, Katrina was so calm and patient with Superstar Wu, she didn't tremble or shrink in fear. Three, Wu Yige actually held the door for her before they left.
This revelation was shocking!
Back home, the three domestic helpers were cleaning and cooking, while Katrina was cooped inside the storage room next to Wu Yige's room.
Wu Yige was still angry when he got out of bed. He frowned when he saw it and said, "Why is it so noisy here?!"
"I'm moving the fans' gifts."
"You don't have to do it right away! Give me time to rest, damn it! Why is everyone so annoying to-"
"Wait!" Katrina answered her phone and it was actually the nanny calling, "Hi, baby? Are you drinking milk? Good girl."
Katrina turned the video call on while sorting the gift.
"La.. Ba.. Ma.. Mama.. Ba.. Ba.. Huf.. Ba.."
The blabbering chatter filled the room.
"I'll call you back later, okay? I'm still work-"
"You're still working, but I'm free. Just focus on the gifts. I'm going to talk to Zhizhi."
Katrina's phone was snatched and the man and child voice intermittently heard from the next room.
With Wu Yige's absence, she continued to open the gifts.
There were many scrapbooks, photo albums, and notebooks made by movie and TV fans, and there were many letters. Katrina opened them and took a look. When he saw that it was a letter written by a girl in junior high school to Wu Yige, he couldn't help but smile.
The letter was also folded with great care, the pink letterhead was fragrant, and the words and sentences were chosen so that one could almost see a fearful heart.
Indeed, idol designs must never fail! Or else the hearts of these people might be shattered.
While Katrina was madly complaining about Wu Yige and pitying the fans. The said man was talking with the little girl.
Wu Yige didn't know how many hours passed, he poured himself a glass of water after the call ended and saw Katrina's cell phone flashing, showing a call from an unknown number.
Wu Yige answered Katrina's call.
"You finally picked up my calls? What is wrong with you, Katrina?!" the male voice said rudely.
"Hello?" Wu Yige said politely, "How can I help you?"
The man finally calmed down, his tone suspicious "Isn't it Katrina's number? Where is she?"
"She is taking a shower." Wu Yige said, "Is there anything you need me to tell her?"
"Who are you?" realized something was wrong.
Wu Yige said with a serious face: "I'm her boyfriend, is there any problem?"
On the other side of the phone: "..."
"Hello?"
The caller's voice irritated, "Tell her, don't even think of hurting me through Liu Fei. I know what she did, she better behave or I'll blacklist her from the industry."
The call was disconnected.
Wu Yige: "..."
Wu Yige blocked the phone number.
Using Katrina's phone, Wu Yige searched something on google, but it linked to twitter and he found a different account of hers.
She saw that the browsing history stopped at the post about his relationship with Melanie Lu. Katrina used his teammate Marc Anthony as her profile banner and had his name in big bold cursive on her profile.
Wu Yige rolled his eyes, but immediately discovered something. Not only did she work very hard to clarify the fact that Wu Yige did not get to the top by hugging Melanie Lu's thighs. She also analyzed how good his drama and movies were and how he catered to the aesthetics of many people… Katrina also emphasized that people were protesting about his looks and so called back door because they couldn't criticize Wu Yige's acting.
The specific time was far before she applied to be an assistant, it was even from his debut.
Katrina's online mutuals teased her that she was Mark's fans but defending Wu Yige more than Wu Yige's original fans. They even suspected they were schoolmates or childhood sweetheart, which Katrina replied by a meme of laser eyes.
Wu Yige threw his phone aside with dissatisfaction, sat on the sofa and flipped through the script. It was obvious that he couldn't stand it at all. He couldn't help but pick up his phone and watch his first drama. At that time, Katrina was still a college student, his drama reviews garnered mixed reviews but most people protested on how an idol turned actor got a supporting role in a drama where many movie veterans starred in. They were questioning the judgment method because he was close to that time friend - Melanie Lu, who was one of the producer's daughters.
Wu Yige was young when his career shattered, desperately trying everything to stay on his dream career. He overcame the injured body from dancing only for his group to be disbanded 2 years after debut. The company showed him two ways, contract termination or debut as an actor.
The choice was obvious.
He gave his all on the audition for the drama and indeed got in, but deep down inside he was insecure and after 3 dramas he would rather take movie deals than drama.
