Chapter 1080 The Other Shore Flower Heather (104)

The only person in this crew who dares to offend Qu Leqi is Heather.

"What’s all the yelling about? It’s just a burn, help her rest a bit and she’ll be fine!" Qu Leqi glanced downward, utterly unconcerned.

Xiao Wan’s eyes were already red-rimmed; she wanted to cry but didn’t dare to.

Stars throwing their weight around isn’t exactly news. For these low-level crew members, which day doesn’t involve swallowing their pride? If you don’t want to put up with it, simple—quit.

But those who could afford to quit had long since done so. The ones who stayed behind were the ones who desperately needed this job.

"Forget it... I’m fine..." Xiao Wan could only swallow her grievances.

And right then, Heather returned.

She glanced at the coffee cup on the ground, still with some coffee inside, steam rising from it.

She crouched down, picked it up, then abruptly grabbed Qu Leqi’s hand, startling her into a panic: "What... What are you trying to do?!"

"Sister Weiwei..." Xiao Wan, her tearful eyes still red, looked up at her. Could she be planning to take revenge for her?

Indeed, that’s exactly what everyone thought!

Otherwise, why pick up that coffee?

"Nothing big," Heather shrugged. "It’s just a burn, right?"

She imitated Qu Leqi’s indifferent attitude, mimicking what she had just said.

Yes, it’s just a burn, so Heather decided to give her one—to let her know what "just a burn" truly meant.

The scariest thing about Heather was how serious her expression always was, devoid of any hint of joking. Based on her past actions, when Heather said "just a burn," it meant she was quite literally going to burn her.

Qu Leqi tried to retreat with all her strength: "What are you all standing there for?!"

She was calling for help.

But at this moment, who wanted to help her?

A woman who brought her own downfall—an arrogant celebrity who treated low-ranking staff like dirt—deserved to be taught a lesson. Naturally, everyone pretended not to see.

The cup in Heather’s hand tilted; the scalding liquid was just about to spill over. Qu Leqi hated her to death—why was her strength so overwhelming?!

"Tsk, don’t move," Heather warned her. "You wiggle and I’ll shake—then it won’t be my fault."

"You’re insane, Heather!" Qu Leqi truly didn’t dare move, but she was terrified. "If you dare do this, you’re finished! Mr. Nian will make you disappear from this city!"

"Oh... is that so?" Heather shrugged nonchalantly. "Then tell him to try. I’m waiting."

If Qu Leqi thought she could intimidate Heather using Nian Shen as a shield, then she couldn’t have been more mistaken.

Xiao Wan honestly didn’t want Qu Leqi to be harmed. After all, she still had to keep working here. She spoke to Heather: "Sister Weiwei... let’s just drop it... Sister Leqi didn’t mean it..."

Besides, Qu Leqi had already been scared out of her wits.

"Heather!!" The director noticed the commotion and rushed over. "What are you doing! Why is everyone just standing there watching?!"

She was the leading lady, Mr. Nian’s girlfriend—not someone to be touched in the slightest!

"Barely a few peaceful days, and you two are at it again!"

"Director, ask her yourself what she did to Xiao Wan."

The director surveyed the scene and quickly pieced things together: "With all these witnesses, could Leqi possibly have done it on purpose? It must’ve been an accident. Put down the cup, now!"

The standoff lasted for ages, with Heather refusing to move and Qu Leqi too frightened to budge.
