The next day, when Luosang was lying on her bed and looking at her phone, she got a call from the director of team Fanyu. âMiss Xu, Iâm sorry, but I have to let you know that your work schedule has been moved to the middle of next month.â
âWhy?â Luosang asked with surprise.
The director replied impatiently, âHow can you be shameless enough to ask why? Donât you know who you have offended? Shi Xiang is a superstar, and you actually tried to seduce him at work. If we had known that the voice actress Ji Nuanyi had recommended was so unprofessional, we wouldnât have picked you. However, as youâve already worked for two days, and youâre pretty good, we only moved your schedule to the middle of next month, so you donât have to work together with Shi Xiang.â
Luosang understood why and got so angry. Yesterday, she did worry that she might offend Shi Xiang. However, she also felt that he wouldnât be so narrow-minded, because he was Yan Suâs boyfriend, after all. But to her surprise...âWhen did I seduce him? Director, I can even confront him about it. I didnât do it, I just didnât.â Luosang felt humiliated.
âYouâre nothing but a voice actress. How dare you demand to confront him?â The director sounded very unfriendly. âShi Xiang is a superstar. Does he have a reason to frame you?â
âI didnât do it. And, you canât act like this. You told me that Iâm working at the end of this month, so Iâve asked my school for leave, and Iâve flown here. Now youâre telling me that I need to come back next month. Arenât you jerking me around? Weâre in this business, so we need to follow the rules of this business. Youâre right, we voice actresses are insignificant, but please respect us.â Luosang made an utmost effort to fight for her rights.
âIf you think itâs inappropriate, feel free to do whatever you want. But, you have already signed the contract, so if you quit, we wonât cover your expenses, and youâll need to compensate for our losses. After all, if you quit, the past two days that weâve spent on you would be wasted.â
Luosang was infuriated. Some other companies had deducted her wages before when she worked for them. However, she had never been accused of seduction. The Fanyu people had taken the liberty of changing her schedule because their company was big and rich. She had to finish her work, because otherwise, she would need to pay them for their losses. That was so shameless.
The most shameless one was Shi Xiang. She had had a good impression of him at first because he was incredibly handsome. However, he actually made up lies about her behind her back. The more she thought about that, the more uncomfortable she felt.
She found Yan Suâs number, as she wanted to call her, but still, she didnât do it. Yan Su had already been in a very bad mood yesterday. If she complained about Shi Xiang to her, she would feel embarrassed, and she might get even sadder. Besides, Yan Su and Shi Xiang had known each other since high school, while she only had known her for about a year. Perhaps Yan Su would tend to believe Shi Xiang more.
Luosang dropped her phone.
...
At three oâclock in the afternoon, Luosang headed straight to the studio at Fanyu. When she arrived, she saw Tang Cheng and Zhou Wanke talking by the door. Seeing her, Tang Cheng gave her a glance with pity, then pushed the door open and walked into the studio. Zhou Wanke tuned back, smiled at her, and said, âXu Luosang, what are you doing here? As far as I know, your schedule has been changed, right?â
Luosang narrowed her eyes and said, âThey switched my schedule with yours?â
âDidnât you know?â said Zhou Wanke scornfully. âThatâs because you tried to seduce Shi Xiang. I donât like your kind of people the most. You always pretend to be so virtuous, but in private, you do things like that. From this day on, Iâll be teaching Shi Xiang voice acting.â
