Chapter 810 810: You’re Bothered, Not Me
Seeing how Di Ranle was putting on a fake smile, Jing Jie felt scared. He just stared at Di Ranle, not saying anything back to her.
As the princess of Country B, the usual circumstances would be others reaching out to her, begging for an opportunity. This was the first time that she was trying to recruit another person on her own, but the other person only looked at her. He didn’t even want to talk to her, which made Di Ranle extremely angry.
“There’s something that I would like to talk to you about. Can I?”
When Jing Jie heard that Di Ranle wanted to talk to him, he was frightened and immediately looked toward Jinqian.
Although she really didn’t like Jinqian, Jing Jie was an autistic child and she wouldn’t be able to get what she wanted by talking to him. Therefore, Di Ranle spoke again, “Miss Jing… I noticed that Jing Jie listens to you the most. I would like to discuss a few things. Do you have any spare time this afternoon? If you do, we could talk over lunch.”
Jinqian remained sitting on the sofa. She didn’t invite Di Ranle to sit, and neither did she ask the other judges to leave. She smiled and said, “I’m sorry, Princess Ranle. I already have plans with my brother this afternoon, so we will not be able to join you today.”
Di Ranle then replied in a tone that indicated that Jinqian was the one who hadn’t moved on from what happened before.
“Miss Jing, I know that you are unhappy about what happened outside and you are still bothered by it. It was only a trivial matter and I don’t even care about it now. No one could be enemies or friends for a long time. I have already forgotten about the incident from earlier and I am hoping that you will be able to do the same.”
Jinqian smiled elegantly, “Princess Ranle, you must be joking. I never cared about it and it is indeed something trivial. If I remember correctly, Princess Ranle was the one who told me to watch out. How is it that I’m the one who’s still bothered by it?”
For some reason, Di Ranle really hated Jinqian.
She was just a commoner who looked a little prettier than the others. Did she take herself as someone important?!
However, Di Ranle really wanted Jing Jie to join her team so that he would quit the finals. Jing Jie was a dummy and she could only discuss this with Jinqian.
“What happened previously was indeed my fault. I shouldn’t have walked towards you. In fact, I did see all of you when I was doing the interview and noticed that there were a few talented designers with you. I just wanted to say hi. I didn’t think that the paparazzi would knock into you. It’s just a misunderstanding. Miss Jing, we might have gotten off to a rough start but I’m sure that we would be able to still work together fine in the future. The issue that I would like to discuss with you would benefit both Jing Jie and me. I am really hoping that you will give us a chance to talk.”
Then, Jinqian’s phone rang. It was Zhan Lichuan who called and Jinqian told him that they would be meeting him outside since they were still in the resting room. However, Zhan Lichuan insisted on walking to meet them at the resting room and told Jinqian to wait for him.
Di Ranle overheard the conversation and noticed that she indeed has plans for the afternoon.
As Jinqian ended the call, Di Ranle spoke up, “Miss Jing is indeed a busy woman. If you have plans in the afternoon, could you spare me some time now, so that we could talk privately?”
With that said, Di Ranle turned toward the judges from Chloe.
If they were smart enough, they should have excused themselves by now.
The judges only just realized that there was bad blood between Di Ranle and their boss. Since their bosses didn’t say anything, it would be impossible for them to leave as well.
Di Ranle waited for them to leave, but all of them remained on the same spot while smiling professionally. Seeing how they were still there, Di Ranle thought to herself that these people were indeed idiots.
