Chapter 833: Meeting Old Acquaintances
Editor: Henyee Translations
The manager was still on the phone with Murong Qiao to explain the situation. Meanwhile, Chi Hanjing was temporarily helped to the lounge to recover.
After Murong Qiao said that she was on the way, the manager ended the call. He glanced at his cell phone and was not too worried after hearing Murong Qiao’s attitude. However, when he thought of Chi Hanjing’s injuries, he couldn’t help but turn around and return to the lounge to see how she was doing.
“How is it?” The manager pushed the door open and entered.
Chi Hanjing was sitting on a chair beside the lounge. The first thing he noticed was the bandage on her left leg.
Hearing his manager’s voice, Chi Hanjing pursed her lips and was clearly not in a good mood.
“I’m fine.”
As she spoke, she touched the spot on her thigh that she had just injured and frowned.
The bandage was wrapped very well. There was no blood seeping out, but only the injured knew how painful the wound was.
Although Chi Hanjing was sitting on a chair and looked fine, in fact, she didn’t dare to move her injured leg. She could feel the pain spreading throughout her body.
“I wonder what’s wrong with them.” Seeing Chi Hanjing like this, the manager couldn’t help but complain on her behalf.
There were only the two of them in the lounge, so they were not afraid of being overheard.
Chi Hanjing didn’t deny her manager’s words, and her mood was definitely not good at this moment. “Boss has already helped me a lot. I didn’t expect to have to trouble her this time.”
“How about letting me receive the boss later? You go to the hospital to let them take a look first.” The manager stared at Chi Hanjing’s leg and thought for a long time, but he still couldn’t help but suggest worriedly.
Although fortunately, it was not her face that was injured, every part of an artiste’s body was precious. Not to mention her legs, even if there was a scar on the back of her hand, it would affect her future acting career.
Moreover, the manager had been standing at the side just now and watched helplessly as the shelf fell and hit Chi Hanjing’s leg. Although he had already called someone over to deal with it and they said that it was fine for the time being, the manager’s heart was still pounding and he couldn’t help but worry.
If there was any permanent loss or if it was delayed a second later, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
Moreover, after being Chi Hanjing’s manager for so long, he was not just thinking about the benefits. Even as an ordinary person, he didn’t want Chi Hanjing’s future life to be troubled.
Seeing his manager’s worried expression, Chi Hanjing, who originally had a serious expression, could not help but smile. Instead, she patted the other party’s shoulder and comforted him.
“It’s not as serious as you think. It’s the same if I tell the boss when she comes later and then go to the hospital.”
Chi Hanjing stubbornly wanted to wait for Murong Qiao to come over.
She was very grateful to Murong Qiao. After all, she was originally just a small actress acting in a mime.
In this fast-paced era, pantomime was no longer popular with young people. It even began to show a trend of gradually declining. And even before she came to the company for the interview, she didn’t know which path she would take in the future. It was Murong Qiao who guided her.
No matter what, Chi Hanjing felt that she had caused trouble this time, and even had to trouble Murong Qiao to come over, so she felt very upset.
“You—”
The manager knew Chi Hanjing very well. When he heard her say this, he knew that he could not persuade her anymore, so he could only sigh helplessly and didn’t say anything else. He planned to wait with her for Murong Qiao to come over.
Murong Qiao was very concerned about this matter. It only took 15 minutes to drive from the company to Chi Hanjing’s filming location.
The manager naturally stood at the door and waited for Murong Qiao to come over. The moment his sharp eyes saw the other party appear, he went up to her.
“Boss!” the manager shouted.
When Murong Qiao heard the voice, she immediately turned to look at him. “How’s Chi Hanjing—”
She originally wanted to ask how Chi Hanjing was, but before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by a familiar voice.
“You’re here? Then let’s talk about how to compensate for the losses.”
Jiang Weiyang, who had appeared here at some point, was standing not far away from Murong Qiao. Her smiling face made one feel disgusted.
When Murong Qiao saw the other party appear in front of her, she immediately had a bad feeling.
Especially when she recalled that she had indeed come into contact with her for a collaboration not long ago, and that time was coincidentally an unhappy encounter with Jiang Weiyang.
“Then let’s talk.” Murong Qiao’s voice turned cold.
Seeing Jiang Weiyang appear here, she knew that she might not be able to escape for the time being. However, considering that she didn’t know the situation on Chi Hanjing’s side, Murong Qiao decided to end the battle quickly.
When Jiang Weiyang saw Murong Qiao’s unsurprised expression, her interest immediately decreased.
However, when she thought of the reason why she had specially brought the other party here, she smiled and walked a few steps in front of Murong Qiao, meeting her gaze.
“Your company’s artiste broke it. The equipment on my side is not cheap.”
Jiang Weiyang spoke unhurriedly.
However, that was true. With her background, her heart wouldn’t ache for this bit of money. However, she and Murong Qiao knew very well that the two of them were not doing this for money at all.
“Regarding the compensation, I think we will give a response later and it will take some time for the two sides to communicate. The most important thing now is to confirm the situation of the artiste first.”
If it was in the past, Murong Qiao might still have the mood to talk to Jiang Weiyang a little. However, Chi Hanjing was injured today, so she was not in the mood to waste time with her. After saying that, she turned around and walked in the other direction.
“Is a mere artiste worth your concern?”
Seeing that she had turned to leave, Jiang Weiyang said playfully.
She deliberately took a step to the side and blocked Murong Qiao’s path. At the same time, she glanced at the shelf above her head.
Chi Hanjing had walked over at some point. “Boss, I’m fine. You guys go ahead.”
While Murong Qiao was on the way, Chi Hanjing already knew that the compensation was not a small sum when she listened to her manager’s communication. At this moment, her heart was pounding.
Although she came from a mime family, she was actually alone now. If she really had to count it, the money she had earned since she became an artiste was not even enough to compensate Jiang Weiyang for the number she had just mentioned.
“Your leg—” Murong Qiao’s gaze immediately noticed Chi Hanjin’s unnatural movements.
Although there didn’t seem to be any blood on the bandage, Murong Qiao was still a little worried about the other party.
“Our Jiang family is indeed not short of equipment.”
At this moment, Jiang Weiyang snorted. “However, the artiste we’ve decided on is injured. How are we going to calculate the losses if the filming process drags on?”
“Our company’s products will be on the market in three days. The marketing process will also follow closely behind. From the looks of it, she doesn’t look like she can continue filming.”
Jiang Weiyang deliberately made the matter sound more serious, not wanting to give Murong Qiao a good solution at all.
She was not only a young lady now. After her Big Brother allowed her to enter the company to help, Jiang Weiyang was very good at using her limited authority to cause trouble for Murong Qiao.
