âItâs absolutely true. If reporters found out and reported the incident, she would be so embarrassed and probably wouldnât behave so haughtily now.â The woman rolled her eyes.
A person like her, who looked down on others just because she was famous, deserved to be dumped.
âPsst, sheâs here. Stop talking.â The other woman nudged her arm.
After changing into the clothes provided by the wardrobe stylist, Tong Fei felt
herself boiling over. The clothes were too low-class for her. Wearing them would just lower her status.
She tugged at the hem of her dress and said disdainfully, âWho picked this dress? Itâs so ugly.â
The girl who gave her the dress said timidly, âIt was provided by the companyâs advertising department.â
âWhat kind of taste is this? They want me to wear such clothes?â Tong Fei complained non-stop with a frown, as if the whole world owed her.
The girl looked at her and said, âMs. Tong, youâre beautiful and elegant. Clothes are just cheery on the cake for you. You look good in any clothes.â
The girlâs flattering words subsided Tong Feiâs anger a little, but not the gloominess in her eyes.
The girl stepped back quietly. If not because she had to keep her job, she wouldnât have waited on Tong Fei.
This woman spoke coquettishly and looked well-tempered in interviews. Who knew that she was like this in private? What a two-faced b*tch!
The girl despised Tong Fei in her heart. She felt really unlucky to be given this assignment.
âMiss Fei, you look fine. The photographer is ready for you.â Her assistant, Zhou, came over to remind her.
Tong Fei walked out of the dressing room begrudgingly.
Thank goodness the troublemaker had finally left! The wardrobe stylist was overjoyed.
Tong Fei could feel that she wasnât performing in front of the camera. She was distracted and she saw the photographerâs frown.
She got nervous and forced herself to focus. If she made another mistake at work, she would probably suffer even more.
Lately, Shu Pan had been less busy at work. She could go home early and would make dinner when she got home.
When she came home from work today, she opened the fridge and saw that she didnât have many ingredients except a small bag of prawns in the freezer. She had bought them when they were on discount. She had an idea and decided to make seafood porridge. It was simple and convenient.
She didnât want to go to the market to stock up now. Gu Shaoting could eat it or not when he came home. He would have to find his own food if he didnât like it.
Anyway, she owe him nothing now.
Shu Pan took the prawns out of the freezer to thaw them before she carefully removed the shells. She then used a toothpick to devein the prawns.
After that, she trimmed the prawn tails neatly and put the plump prawns into a bowl. She added a little salt, oil and cooking wine. Then, she julienned some ginger, put them in and massage the prawns in the mixture for a bit with her hands before she let the them marinate for a few minutes.
The prawns would taste better this way, less fishy; the porridge would also taste more delicious.
Shu Pan was very focused on food preparation and didnât realize that Gu Shaoting was standing at the kitchen door.
She was startled when she turned around and saw him.
He was standing straight and looking quite attractive in his light gray suit.
âWhy didnât you say anything when you came back? Do you want to scare me to death?â Shu Pan said unhappily. Didnât he know that people would be scared to death?
How annoying of this person to appear without any noticeâ¦
âAre you just timid, or did you do something wrong?â Gu Shaoting teased.
âI didnât do anything wrong but Iâve done something stupid, like taking care of you.â Shu Pan could not help but retort..n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
