Quick Transmigration: Homewrecker System! [BL]

Chapter 368 - OG 1.9

Long Shen glared at Yunyu and unleashed his fury, "Not only you have an ugly face, but you also have an ugly heart! Leave now. I don't want to see your face!"

'Ugly face…'

'Ugly heart…'

Yunyu looked lost. He never expected Long Shen to really call him an ugly face with an ugly heart. It was so humiliating and condescending that Yunyu couldn't hold his own tear. He stared at Long Shen unblinking, with tears streaming down on his cheeks.

"Mr. Long Shen, maybe I'm not a pretty woman that can brighten your day. Or a charming lady that can soothe your heart, but I've never once hurt someone in my life."

Long Shen zipped his mouth instantly when he saw that Yunyu actually responded to his yelling. He thought Yunyu would just accept everything, just like what he used to do. And it was quite a shock to Long Shen.

He stared at Yunyu's eyes, full of sincerity, but the said sincerity was covered in grief and disappointment.

"Yunyu—"

"Mr. Long Shen, I'm still a human with a heart. I know I'm desperate to get a job because of my face, but that doesn't mean that I'll be your punching bag forever!" Yunyu glared at Yulin and said determinedly, "Mr. Long Shen, I quit!"

Yunyu took his bag and rushed out immediately, "Wait, Yunyu!" Long Shen called Yunyu, but the man ignored him and left.

Long Shen was still dazed. He didn't expect Yunyu to actually get mad. Long Shen would usually say something even worse than that, and Yunyu would still nod his head and accept everything like an obedient dog. 

'Did I say too much?' Long Shen pondered.

[Pupa: Ding! Long Shen's Fatemeter to Bai Yunyu increases to 20%.]

Long Shen wanted to chase Yunyu and apologize for what he just said. He said it in the midst of rage. Because he had a good impression of Bai Yunyu, he thought Yunyu was a hard worker and meek guy who had almost no ambition. 

But who knew Yunyu could bully someone else just because he felt threatened.

'Where did he go?' Long Shen asked in his heart. He put Yulin on the bed and asked her, "Where does it hurt?" Long Shen asked. 

"Ah, about that, I think I've magically healed after you carried me, Mr. Long," Yulin said with a smile on his face. "Senior Bai is so dramatic. He said to me that he doesn't like working with you, but because of his face, he had no choice."

…

Long Shen felt uncomfortable in his heart. He thought that he might have said too much for Yunyu. And truth to be told, he didn't know what to do since Yunyu quitted his job as his assistant. Nobody ever worked better than Yunyu, and nobody else will.

'I need to apologize later. Relax, Long Shen, he won't go anywhere. Don't you remember that nobody will accept him except you?' Long Shen calmed himself down and decided to focus on the shooting today. 

Yunyu dashed dramatically out of the building. He wiped the tears on his cheek and rushed even further, afraid that someone would notice him crying ugly.

Until he bumped into someone.

Thud! 

"Ouch!" 

Yunyu lost his balance after his face hit the muscular chest in front of him. But before he hit the ground, there was a hand wrapped behind him, holding him gently so he wouldn't fall.

Yunyu opened his eyes, and he met the man whose deep eyes gave him the same warm spark, Aaron Xu. 

Aaron Xu saw that Yunyu was crying and got alerted instantly, "Why are you crying? Who makes you cry?"

Yunyu was dazed for a moment and shook his head, "I—It's no one… I just—hurt myself, so I cried, haha."

Yunyu's dry laugh didn't help to alleviate Aaron's worry, though. He kept pressuring Yunyu to answer, "What happened? Is there someone hurting you?"

"N—No, please release me, Aaron…" Yunyu pushed Aaron's chest, but Aaron didn't budge at all. "Release me, I need to go…"

"Go? But the shooting is about to start, Mr. Long Shen must've—" it took a while until Aaron could connect the dots. His gaze deepened, and he asked, "What did he say to you?"

"N—Nothing, I was just tired of working, so I quit, haha… ha…" Yunyu's lips trembled again. He was so close to bawling his eyes out. 

Aaron pulled him outside, and they went to a spot behind the building, and then, Aaron asked again softly, "What did that guy say to you?"

At first, Yunyu was reluctant to talk about it, but under Aaron's gentle but demanding gaze, Yunyu finally spoke out his woe, "I… I have been slandered by the new assistant that wants all attention from Mr. Long Shen. I didn't care if she wants to date him or what, but why did she need to drag me down?"

"I've worked hard every day for Mr. Long Shen, but all I got was just scream, yell, and disdain…" Yunyu said. "And I quit because he just called me a man with an ugly face and ugly heart…"

"What did he call you?!" Aaron Xu reacted strongly. He clenched his fist and decided to confront Long Shen, "Let me talk to him."

"No, don't!" Yunyu held Aaron's hand. "You can't face him. You are a new actor! You'll get into a fight with a senior!" 

"But—!"

"I'm okay, really," Yunyu said. He smiled pitifully, "At least I can courageously say to him that I may have an ugly face, but I don't have an ugly heart. I stayed true to myself."

Aaron gently caressed Yunyu's scar that covered half of his face, and he said, "This is just a scar. Why do you keep saying that you have an ugly face?"

Yunyu chuckled, "Well, if only people have the same thought as you, Aaron. Anyway, thank you for listening to me, but I have to go now. I need to find a job somewhere else."

"Leave? Why do you want to live? You've been used to work in this kind of environment, right? You even made friends with some people here. Even Uncle Guo thinks highly of your work ethic."

"Yeah, but Mr. Long Shen is the only one that's willing to accept me. Because other actors and actresses don't want to have someone like me following them, haha," Yunyu scratched his nape awkwardly.

"I don't know if I can consider myself as one of those 'actors'. But… do you want to work under me? I need a good personal assistant, especially the one with great work ethics and professionalism."

"R—Really?! You will take me?" Yunyu asked seriously with eyes glimmering with hope.

"Yeah, not because I pity you or something else… I just… feel like we will be a great fit as a working partner…" Aaron said.

"Yes! I accept! I will work as your personal assistant from now!" Yunyu nodded vigorously. He didn't expect it would be this easy for him to get another job after he left Long Shen. 

Aaron was relieved with the answer, "B—But not now though, you still need to recover today. Besides, I only have very few scenes today. Come again tomorrow, okay?"

"Okay! Yes, Boss!" Yunyu said excitedly. 

Aaron laughed heartily when he saw Yunyu regained his spirit back. He fished out his phone and gave it to Yunyu, "Type your phone number, so I can contact you tonight."

"Tonight?" Yunyu tilted his head. "Do you want me to do anything tonight?" Yunyu asked. But he typed his phone number and saved it on Aaron's phone.

"N—No, not really, I was just thinking… nevermind, it's not that important," Aaron felt awkward so suddenly. "A—Anyway, I will do my scene now. See you tomorrow, Yunyu."

"See you tomorrow, boss!" 

After Aaron entered the building, Pupa materialized in front of Yunyu and stared at him with a scrutinizing gaze, "Is this part of the drama that you've been planning since early morning?"

"Hehe, it's great, right? I see that Long Shen always thinks of himself as above all, especially when facing me. He thinks that he could say anything without repercussion because I'm meek, desperate, and ugly. I will let him realize that having me under him is a blessing that he wasted. And for that Zhou Yulin, oh-ho~ don't worry, she will not survive working under Long Shen. NYAHAHAHAH!"

"… makes me wonder if that ugly face and ugly heart is actually true or not, but good job, at least Long Shen's Fatemeter returned back to 20%."
