"Sir, I think Xin Yi is a spy," he suggested. "What if he is the one giving him information about you because he is present at every scene?" he said, lowering his voice, as even the walls have ears.
"You think so?" Li Qiang asked.
"Yes, sir!"
"Keep an eye on him," Li Qiang said, seeing Muyang nod.
Six members from Xin Yi's martial arts club sat down in their practice room, wearing their martial arts clothes, sitting in a circle gossiping.
"Eh, did you know Xin Yi quit?" one of them said.
"Yeah, I am so glad he left. He kept stealing the spotlight that belongs to me," another one said.
"But isn't it too much for him to leave Master after all this time? He treated him like a child," another one said.
"Zichen, why are you so foolish? Isn't it evident he is heartl—ahh." Something was thrown at his head, and he scrunched his face, holding the back of his head as he stood up to see who threw it.
Ru Xuan, also in her martial arts clothes, folded her hands across her chest and walked towards them.
"Jietiang, you have such a good name, but your personality says otherwise, you useless brat," she insulted.
"Ru Xuan, I know you are Xin Yi's friend, and who knows whether you are dating," he laughed.
"Ah, as I can see, your brain has a leakage, and Xin Yi is better than you. Just accept the fact," she explained and turned to the rest.
"And you, you are all lacking in your training, but you are so good at gossiping. I think I should get an award for you guys," she laughed and applauded them.
"And who told you Xin Yi quit? Oh, sorry, you might have heard fake news. She actually got a part-time job, unlike you who only learns to fight," she insulted.
"Hahaha, see who is talking. It's not like you have any work apart from this either," he insulted her back, and the others laughed.
She gritted her teeth.
"Who told you that? I have lots of part-time jobs," she said and started to walk away.
"That jerk," she cursed under her breath.
Yi Nou sat on her sofa in her expensive house, wearing a casual dress, looking at her manager happily.
"You look so happy," her manager, Zhiyu, said.
"Why wouldn't I be? You got me a job," she smiled. "I am so happy. So, the script?" she asked, stretching out her hands.
"You are always in a rush," he said and handed the script to her. She collected it and opened it. The title was "You Own Me - Traditional Series." She started reading the script, and when she was done, she closed it, smiling.
"So, when is it starting? I am so glad I am going to be the female lead," she said happily. Noticing the smile on her manager's face fall, she asked, "What's wrong?"
"Uhm, Miss Yi… I… really don't know how to explain this," he said.
"What is it?" she asked, her smile fading as she stood up from her sofa to look into her manager's eyes.
"Uhm, Miss Xu Yi Han got the role, so your role is her personal maid," he explained, scrunching his face, waiting for whatever would happen to him.
"Ah Ah Ah!" she looked at him and fainted.
"MISS YI!" he shouted and ran towards her.
After a while, she woke up and looked up, seeing her manager holding her. She grabbed the collar of his shirt.
"YOU JERK! HOW DARE YOU BRING A STUPID JOB FOR ME? YOU MUST BE CRAZY. ME, A PERSONAL MAID!" she screamed and fainted again.
