She ran away from him and was not to be offended by her sickly brother.

"What do you mean?"

Meng Xia frowned and looked at him. Only then did Huo Xibai realize that his tone had gone too far. He then calmed down and deliberately lowered his voice, "I'm just worried that you will be deceived. Nowadays, many people are defrauding people in the name of acquaintances..."

"He will not."

Before he finished speaking, Meng Xia decisively interrupted——

he?

Huo Xibai's expression changed, and the man's sixth sense told him that the other party must be a man.

With his thin lips pursed, Huo Xibai stared at the woman's back as she packed her things. His eyes darkened and he unconsciously lowered his voice, "Can you not go?"

"Why not go? I finally got the opportunity."

For some unknown reason, all the resumes she had submitted in the past half month had come to nothing. Now she finally had a job opportunity, even if it was just a costume assistant, she cherished it very much.

There was suddenly no sound behind her. Just as Meng Xia was about to turn around, her waist suddenly tightened. The man suddenly hugged her from behind and muttered, "I'm not happy anymore."

"Ok?"

Meng Xia didn't react for a moment.

"I said I would open a studio for you, but you don't want it. Are you so happy when someone else introduces you to a job?"

Meng Xia was stunned when a low-pitched man rang in her ears, and subconsciously explained, "That's different..."

"What's the difference?"

“How can opening a studio and introducing work be the same?”

"So what you're saying is that if I introduced you to a job now, you would be happy to accept it?"

"..."

Meng Xia was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.

The next second, I heard the man mocking himself softly, "Look, you can't answer it, because you never thought of accepting me."

"So you would rather leave me who is so close and ask for help from an acquaintance who appears out of nowhere..."

After a pause for a few seconds, the man's voice suddenly dropped, revealing an indescribable loneliness, "Meng Xia, do you really think I won't be sad?"

Hearing this, Meng Xia was inexplicably startled, and she lowered her eyes and felt at a loss -

It was not that she couldn't accept Huo Xibai, after all, he had been taking care of and helping him during this period, but she really didn't want Huo Xibai to interfere with finding a job. She couldn't explain why, she just subconsciously resisted.

Her fingers unconsciously grasped the corners of her clothes. Meng Xia hesitated for a while before slowly speaking, "But I have promised him first. If it doesn't work this time... I will do as you say, okay?"

"Really?"

"Ah."

"Okay, then I'll send you to the interview."

"There's no need for an interview, I'll join the team directly."

"Join the group directly?"

Huo Xibai couldn't help but frown, "What group should I join?"

"Didn't I tell you that the job I was looking for was a costume assistant on the set? Or I specifically asked a university teacher to help introduce it."

Because she had joined two groups in college under the introduction of her teacher, so she was quite experienced.

So the acquaintance she mentioned was her university teacher?

Huo Xibai was stunned for a moment. Before he could get upset, he realized a more serious problem, "If you join the crew, wouldn't you have to stay on the crew forever?"

"It stands to reason that this should be the case."

The crew is basically provided with food and accommodation.

Huo Xibai's face tightened, "Then how long will you stay on the set this time?"

"Hmm... This depends on the progress of the filming, but it will take at least a week or two, right?"

"A week or two?!"

Huo Xibai immediately regretted it and hugged her tightly, "Shall I find a new job for you?"

"But didn't we just agree? You yourself agreed."

Huo Xibai "..."

He finally knew what it meant to shoot oneself in the foot.
