Chapter 76 Burn Ointment

Zhuo Ziyu looked unhappy. "Is that how you talk to your senior?" If someone else bullied her, she could pretend nothing had happened. But she just couldn't stand it when someone bullied Xiang Yutang right in front of her.

Miao Tiantian didn't even bother to put on a fake smile now. She looked haughty. "Senior? Just because she debuted one year earlier than me, she dares to call herself a senior? If I had debuted one year earlier, I might have been the C - position last year."

Ying Zikui frowned and wanted to step forward to speak for them, but Xiang Yutang reached out her hand to stop him.

"The data for last year's C - position was completely public and transparent. All the votes were from netizens' spontaneous voting. I heard that a certain company was shut down for three months this year because of malicious vote - rigging. They finally managed to get out of trouble by pulling strings. How pitiful." Miao Tiantian was this year's C - position, but her parents had bought it for her. It had caused quite a stir at that time, and her family's company had almost been affected. Fortunately, a noble person had helped them in the end, but basically everyone in the industry knew about this. Those who disliked Miao Tiantian would often make fun of her for it.

But few people would make fun of her like Xiang Yutang did right in front of everyone. Miao Tiantian's face turned pale and then red. Her temper flared up, and she picked up the cup beside her and splashed the water in it at Xiang Yutang's face. "Who do you think you are!"

A timid supporting actress beside them exclaimed in fear. "That's hot water!"

Just as Xiang Yutang was about to dodge, someone suddenly stepped in front of her to block the water. The water splashed on the person's back.

"Teacher Zhu!" The director's face turned white with fright. If Zhu Zhengchu got injured on the set, his fans would tear the director apart.

The others also gathered around worriedly. Miao Tiantian was also stunned. She didn't expect Zhu Zhengchu to come out and why he would help Xiang Yutang block the water.

"Quickly find some burn ointment!" The director's team shouted anxiously.

Zhu Zhengchu smiled. "It's okay." He wasn't a delicate little fresh - meat actor who couldn't even stand this little pain.

"No, you still need to apply some ointment. First, get some ice to apply on it!"

Everyone was in a hurry. Xiang Yutang took a few steps back and looked at Zhu Zhengchu with a complex expression. "Thank you."

Zhu Zhengchu looked at her gently. "It's worth it if I can get you to talk to me voluntarily."

Xiang Yutang pretended not to hear his words and walked over to settle the score with Miao Tiantian.

"Your behavior just now is enough to get you kicked out of the entertainment circle. All your parents' money will be wasted. Bye,大小姐. You'd better pray that your family business will always go smoothly. Otherwise, once your family falls, you'll be the first one to suffer." After being in the entertainment circle for a year, Xiang Yutang had seen all kinds of people. There were many people like Miao Tiantian who were arrogant just because their families were rich. In the end, they all ended up miserably. Sometimes, Xiang Yutang even felt sorry for them.

Miao Tiantian was still not convinced. It seemed that she wanted to go up and fight. Ying Zikui shouted coldly. "Try it. Director, is this the actress you found?!"

The director's team hadn't even taken care of Zhu Zhengchu's situation, and now there was another problem. Originally, Miao Tiantian was forced on them by the sponsor. Now she was not only unruly but also caused so much trouble for them! The director had a fiery temper. He shouted at Miao Tiantian. "Just because your family has a little money, you think you can do whatever you want! Do you think you can provoke these teachers here? I don't need someone like you who doesn't respect her seniors in my crew! Leave this set!"

Miao Tiantian had never been driven out in public before. Tears welled up in her eyes immediately, but at this moment, no one cared about her. Everyone was busy with their own things.

She gave Xiang Yutang a resentful look and then ran out. Xiang Yutang didn't bother to care about her and just turned around and left.

Zhu Zhengchu refused the burn ointment from the director's team. "I'm fine. I'll go back and it will get better in a few days. Anyway, the injury is on my back and no one can see it. Really, it's okay."

Zhu Zhengchu went back to his room and used a mirror to look at his back. It was just a little red. It should get better in a few days.

After he put down the mirror, the window was suddenly pushed open, and someone threw a tube of burn ointment in. Zhu Zhengchu walked to the window and only saw a back figure. It was Xiang Yutang.

Zhu Zhengchu picked up the burn ointment and held it in his palm like a treasure.

Zhuo Ziyu came to Xiang Yutang's room. Xiang Yutang saw her and smiled. "Baby, why are you here? Why aren't you rehearsing lines with Zikui?"

Zhuo Ziyu looked at her nervously. "You won't be touched by Zhu Zhengchu's behavior today and then want to... make up with him, right?"

Xiang Yutang was both amused and annoyed. "Of course not. What are you thinking?" If she was that easy to be coaxed, Zhu Zhengchu would have succeeded long ago.

"I just thought your look was a bit strange just now." Others might not notice, but Zhuo Ziyu, who was as delicate - minded as she was, could see it at a glance.

Xiang Yutang told the truth. "Do you remember when we were participating in that show and there was an earthquake?"

"Remember. I was so scared at that time." Zhuo Ziyu had experienced an earthquake for the first time, and the psychological shadow still lingered.

Xiang Yutang sighed. "I was just thinking that if he didn't like me at that time, why did he run in for me specifically?" At that time, Zhu Zhengchu could have run to a safe place immediately. The trainees' dormitory was the most dangerous place. But instead of running outside, Zhu Zhengchu ran inside. It was exactly because of this incident that Xiang Yutang at that time was so love - struck and firmly believed that Zhu Zhengchu loved her.

Zhuo Ziyu gently stroked the back of her hand and didn't say a word. Actually, she thought Zhu Zhengchu liked Xiang Yutang, both before and now. Maybe he just didn't realize his feelings before, which was why he did those things. But no matter whether he liked her now or not, she didn't want Xiang Yutang to take risks like that again.

"Come on, don't look so worried. I'm just thinking casually. Anyway, it's all over between us."

Zhuo Ziyu held her hand. "Anyway, I just hope you're happy."

Xiang Yutang said happily. "I also hope you're happy. Hurry up and get together with Zikui! Then have a beautiful son for me. When your son grows up, I'll marry him. Then we'll be even closer. Isn't that great!"

Zhuo Ziyu was speechless. This might not be appropriate!

By the time her son reached the legal age of marriage, Xiang Yutang would be in her forties.

Xiang Yutang was having a beautiful daydream when she suddenly thought of something else. "No! I can't marry your son!"

Zhuo Ziyu let out a sigh of relief. It's good that she knew it was inappropriate.

"If I marry him, I'll have to call Ying Zikui dad! I don't want to!"

Zhuo Ziyu:...

It turned out that was the reason after all this?
