President Mo: Need to Work Hard

173

During times of helplessness, one always wants to have the strongest power, because this world has always been very unfair to the weak.

Everyone knew that Long Jie was Tangning's assistant, yet here she was at Hai Yi Center carrying a lot of gear bags, trying to get a balance as she followed behind Li Danni. He was obedient towards Li Danni as he told her to go around.

"Did Tangning never teach you the rules? Now that you're Danni's assistant, if you don't greet everyone as you pass them, people will think Danni has a bad work ethic."

Manager Li Danni stuck out Long Jie's head as she complained.

"I don't know if Tangning has any manners, but.you followed Danni today, so you need to show some respect."

Long Jie endured the insults, scolding and mock stares around her as she lowered her head and replied, "Sorry, I'll take notes from now on."

"Danni should put on her face. Don't wander aimlessly like a newcomer, grab Danni's shoes from the car!"

Long Jie held back her anger as her hands clenched. Due to his anger, his face started to turn red and his eyes were watering...

Manager Li Danni looked at the expression on Long Jie's face and opened her arms as she walked towards Li Danni arrogantly, "Tangning's people are different as you tell them to go around. They're like dogs!"

"Have you put what I told you to put in the shoes?" Li Danni sat in front of the mirror letting the makeup artist do whatever she needed.

"Don't worry..how could I mess up such an entertaining show?" her manager scanned Li Danni's face in the mirror and saw a secret smile sweep across her face.

Backstage fashion shows are always chaotic and uncomfortable. Even for an international model like Li Danni working for an international high-end brand, everything was no different. He even shared the same waiting room as the newcomer model.

Not long after, Long Jie approached Li Danni with her shoes.

Manager Li Danni glanced at him quickly and sneered, "Why are you still standing with a blank look? Get on your knees and help Danni put on her shoes."

Helping an artist wear shoes is not something extraordinary, but…

...he was Tangning's assistant. However he had to bow down on his knees in front of Li Danni and help the enemy wear their shoes.

Long Jie held the burn in her throat as she held onto one of the shoes and knelt on the ground. With one hand he lifted the high heels and with the other he raised Li Danni's right foot. Yet…

…when his foot entered in the middle of the road.Li Danni suddenly screamed in high pitched and kicked Long Jie's chest; there was a pushpin inside the shoe!

A loud "PA" voice followed ...

…when manager Li Danni landed a slap in Long Jie's face. He then pointed at her and shouted ferociously, "You are really brave! How dare you put a pushpin in Danni's shoes? Are you trying to stop Danni from performing in the show?"

"Tangning told you to do this, didn't he?"

Long Jie was stunned by the slap as fingerprints slowly appeared on her left cheek ...

"I didn't put anything in your shoes. I took it for what it is."

"How dare you make excuses?"

The manager threw another slap, this time to Long Jie's right cheek. It seemed like he was using too much strength as his hand also felt pain as he shook it twice.

"Everyone saw it!"

Long Jie looked around at all the eyes that were on her; there were looks of pity, scorn, ridicule and curiosity. In reality, everyone knew deep down what was really going on: Li Danni was just looking for an excuse to humiliate her in front of everyone. No one cared whether he actually placed the pushpin or not. But, no one was present with a higher status than Li Danni, so…

…who dares to step out and defend him?

There ain't!

"Sorry," Long Jie's tears flowed down her uncontrollably swollen cheeks, making her even hotter and painful.

"Do you think this will end in an apology? Did you know, because of your encouragement, Danni's modeling career could be over?" Manager Li Danni leveled a heavy accusation at Long Jie.

"What do you want me to do?"

"Of course you should kneel before Danni and beg for forgiveness," manager Li Danni looked surprised that Long Jie did not understand the rules of the industry.

"Making you on your knees has made it easy.If it wasn't for President Lan, I would've called the police."

Kneeling off?

Kneeling in front of Li Danni?

Long Jie sneered inside. Although he had already mentally prepared himself and thought of various ways to comfort himself, he was so tempted to tear their faces apart and break their necks as to undo the anger and suffering he felt.

But...

"Aren't you kneeling too much?"

"You've slapped me and humiliated me .. Do you really need to take that extra step?"

After hearing Long Jie's words, Li Danni's lips curved upwards as she grabbed onto Long Jie's shirt and pulled her towards her, "Do you think I'll be afraid of Tangning? Do you think an international model like me would be afraid of A-Repentive class models?"

"You should blame yourself for choosing the wrong master. Even being a dog requires luck ..."

After speaking, Li Danni released Long Jie from her grip and took out a tissue to wipe her hands, like she had touched something dirty.

"Aren't you going to kneel down and apologize?"

Long Jie did not move.

"I told you to kneel!" Manager Li Danni kicked the back of Long Jie's leg.

Seeing this, Hai Yi's staff couldn't bear to watch any longer, so one of them stepped forward to try to convince Li Danni, "Danni, this is a public space, she said, don't you think what you're doing isn't too good? appropriate?"

"This wicked woman put a pushpin inside Danni's shoes. What motive does he have? Does he want to kill our Danni?"

"We've been very forgiving by not calling the police. We're just asking for an apology, aren't we?"

The staff member looked at Li Danni's manager helplessly as he smiled, "But ..he, after all, is Tangning's assistant."

After hearing Tangning's name, the manager kicked in with an irresistible force, making Long Jie kneel involuntarily on the ground...

A piercing pain spread throughout Long Jie's body, while the spectators laughed out loud. The manager rubbed his chin and looked at Long Jie in satisfaction, "You should have been obedient from the start and saved my energy."

"Eh. Because you're on your knees.I think you should also give Danni us a kowtow."

Manager Li Danni put her hand on Long Jie's shoulder, ready to push her down, when suddenly...

...the whole backstage broke out in the fray. Someone had called that/that Tangning had arrived ...

A moment later, manager Li Danni raised her head. Even before he could see what was going on, a loud slap landed on his face; it was ten times stronger than the slap he had just given Long Jie …
