"Are you very nervous?"
After seeing Zhou Ziqing's expression, Yang Hao asked with a chuckle.
"Uh, no."
Zhou Ziqing said she wasn't, but her body subconsciously moved backward, and her long, slender legs wrapped in black silk crossed over one another.
"I just wanted to talk to you about you being shelved."
"You don't need to be so tense!"
Yang Hao sipped his coffee leisurely, eyeing the female artist under his company's banner with interest, and meanwhile activated his Fiery Eyes skill.
The System rated her "SA"!
Just a little behind Xiao Yinqiu's Double S Level.
What was more valuable, her wear and tear level was also zero like Xiao Yinqiu's!
She belonged to that category which could be listed as an NPC candidate.
"Will you be like Director Wu, too?"
Driven by her nervous emotions, Zhou Ziqing didn't hold back and directly asked what she had in mind.
"I don't know what Wu Dehai has done!"
"Naturally, I don't know whether I would be like him either."
"So, now you need to tell me what Wu Dehai has done."
Yang Hao tossed the question back at her.
"Hmm…"
Zhou Ziqing took a deep breath, organized her thoughts in her mind, and then began to talk about Wu Dehai's deeds.
As an involved party, Zhou Ziqing incorporated her personal feelings into her narrative, which made it more empathic for the listener.
Hucheng Cultural Work Troupe.
As Chen Haiou stood next to the familiar sign by the door, her heart was filled with sighs.
She had spent a glorious time here, and also experienced her downfall here.
For her, this place could be described in four words: love and hate intertwined.
"Hey, isn't that Chen?"
"Haven't seen you for many years!"
Just as Chen Haiou stood in front of the gate, lost in thought, a gray-haired old man came out of the guard room.
"Uncle Liu!"
Chen Haiou recognized the old man; his name was Liu Fugui, the security guard at the Hucheng Cultural Work Troupe. He had been there since her days at the troupe.
She didn't expect that after so many years, he was still here!
But that was normal; Liu Fugui was the Deputy Troupe Leader's relative, and many at institutions like the Cultural Work Troupe were there because of their connections.
Being a security guard at the Cultural Work Troupe might not have paid much, but the job was stable, and all the due benefits and entitlements were provided.
"It really is you."
"Haven't seen you in so many years!"
Liu Fugui's face showed a sense of nostalgia, and then he instinctively looked Chen Haiou over, praising her with a smile, "Chen, you seem to have gotten even younger!"
"You look even prettier than before!"
Liu Fugui had a good relationship with Chen Haiou back then, and after so many years, their meeting was still quite warm, his compliments not at all greasy.
"Uncle Liu, you also seem more spirited!"
Chen Haiou replied with a smile.
"Not at all!"
"I'm getting on in years, and my health is declining each year."
"I was planning to mix in for another year or so before retiring, but look what happened, the Cultural Work Troupe is going to be acquired!"
"I don't even know if I can make it to retirement now!"
Liu Fugui lamented, shaking his head.
"You definitely will!"
Upon hearing Liu Fugui's words, Chen Haiou immediately smiled and nodded.
After the acquisition of the Cultural Work Troupe, there would inevitably be personnel optimization, but there wasn't a need to optimize away a security guard like Liu Fugui.
This was something Chen Haiou could handle.
However, just as she finished speaking, a discordant voice suddenly sounded from behind.
"You say he will, so he will?"
"Thought you were the Troupe Leader's Wife!"
The voice was grating, uncomfortable to hear, and Chen Haiou frowned as she turned around, only to see a face that was both unfamiliar and familiar.
It was a stylishly dressed middle-aged woman, probably in her early forties, with well-cared-for white skin, wearing a sapphire blue dress, and a pearl necklace around her neck that suited her age very well.
Chen Haiou obviously knew this woman, who was named Tang Jiaqi. Back in the day, she and Chen Haiou were both core members of the troupe, and there was even competition between them.
After Chen Haiou left, it seemed like she hooked up with the troupe leadership, and her position within the troupe rose steadily; she was now the head of the dance and song department.
The "Troupe Leader's Wife" remarked by Tang Jiaqi was heavily loaded with sarcasm, mocking Chen Haiou for the affair she once had with the Troupe Leader who then just entered on a sewing machine.
There's a saying, "Don't hit a person in the face, don't uncover one's shortcoming when you scold them!"
Yet, Director Tang started by poking right at Chen Haiou's sore spot.

"I heard that Director Tang is the Troupe Leader's Wife, ah!"
"I certainly can't assume that title!"
Chen Haiou was not one to take a loss quietly, and she immediately retorted.
The affair between Tang Jiaqi and Troupe Leader Zhou Youwei was no secret within the Cultural Work Troupe. Although Chen had left, she still maintained contact with a very good friend from her time in the Hucheng Cultural Work Troupe, who would occasionally share some gossip from inside the troupe.
It was her friend who told Chen Haiou about the affair between Tang Jiaqi and Zhou Youwei; she even heard that once, the two were caught in action in the conference room after a meeting, and someone who went back to get something left in the room walked in on them. The scene was reportedly excruciatingly awkward!
After the incident, the employee who walked in on them was marginalized by Zhou Youwei and ended up resigning voluntarily.
So, Chen Haiou's comeback was quite apt!
As expected, Tang Jiaqi's mouth twitched violently several times, clearly not expecting that Chen Haiou, having left the Cultural Work Troupe so many years ago, would still be aware of her affair with Zhou Youwei.
