T/N: Sorry for the inconsistencies of updates for these past few weeks. Fnal is finally almost over and holiday is coming. Therefore, the update schedule will resume as usual (I might release more chapters during the holiday, hahaha, but who knows I might suddenly be attacked by laziness virus. So I can’t promise anything XD)
For a production team, the withdrawal of investment was a big matter. It could make the whole project fall through. With a grave expression, Director Liang asked the person who reported this, “How could this happen? How could the Ji Company suddenly want to withdraw their capital without even saying anything?”
With a bitter expression, that person whispered into Director Liangs ear, “Its like this, they demanded to change Zhou Siyu.”
“Zhou Siyu? Her again?” Director Liang suddenly remembered. During the audition, there was another investor, Chairman Wang, who also indirectly expressed that he didnt want to employ Siyu. However, Ji Lin directly declared his support of Siyu then and there. That was why Director Liang could dare to employ her, “Does Ji Lin know of this matter? This was his idea?”
Director Liang had never thought that a nobody, a little actress who came from a model background, could actually cause two waves of investment withdrawal. However, he didnt understand, Ji Lin was the little “crown prince” of the Ji family. By right, he should be able to represent the Ji family. Since Ji Lin nodded and assented to Siyu joining the production team, then why did the Ji family change their minds at the last moment?
That person shook his head, “Director Liang, Im also unclear about this. I had already called Ji-ge to come to the production team. However, this matter Do you [formal] want to inform Zhou Siyu first?”
At this moment, Siyu was staying peacefully inside the car. After she ate the medicine, she felt sleepy again. The temperature in the car was adjusted to the most appropriate degree. Under the warm breeze, the coldness that Siyu had felt from falling into the water on top of her already poor health slowly faded away. Chen Yue, seeing her closing her eyes drowsily, quickly took a woolen blanket and draped it over Siyu. After that, she tested the temperature of the latters forehead.
With this test, Chen Yues eyes immediately opened wide. Siyu-jies forehead is burning. She couldnt have gotten a fever, could she?
However, after thinking about it, she didnt find it odd. Siyu was known to be sick and weak. During the time Chen Yue worked as an assistant at her side, seeing her vomiting blood was as common as eating three meals a day. As long as she bumped into something, the mark on her body would last one whole week before it disappeared. She had become immune to this condition.
A moment ago, Siyu was in the water for such a long time. Although it was summer, the water in the pool was cold. Her body was so frail, it was normal to have a fever due to the cold.
Fortunately, Chen Yue carried a medicine bag. She quickly found an antipyretic medicine and shook Siyu awake to feed her the medicine.
“How long was I asleep for?” Siyu tried hard to open her eyes and obediently swallow the medicine. Her eyes were misty. Those glistening eyes reached the beholders heart. Chen Yue endured this close-ranged beauty attack. She could hardly resist holding her chest and shrieking aloud.
Holy sh*t. The sick Siyu-jie was actually.even more attractive! Chen Yue remorsefully thought. If its like this, shes a bit reluctant to let Siyu get better…
“Siyu-jie, you didnt sleep for that long. You can sleep more.” Seeing that Siyu wanted to get up, Chen Yue quickly reached out to support her and advised, “You have a fever. Ill go and tell Director Liang so that you can go back to the hotel to rest.”
When Siyu was about to reply, the car door was gently opened by someone. It was the leader of the bodyguards. He stood outside and reported in a low voice,” Miss Zhou, the production crew has been looking for you [formal] everywhere. They say that the director has something to discuss. Do you [formal] want to go there?”
“Director Liang is looking for me?” Siyu motioned Chen Yue to follow her off the car. Chen Yue had no choice but to shut up.
When they rushed back to the production team, Siyu was keenly aware that the atmosphere in the crew seemed to be a little bit wrong. Especially when those whispering staff immediately stopped talking at her arrival and snuck glances at her.
Even Chen Yue also sensed that something was wrong. She asked, “Siyu-jie, I have a bad feeling.”
Siyu frowned, Director Liang was not at the shooting site. Both of them stood for half a minute before someone immediately rushed over and invited Siyu into a large lounge. Director Liang was sitting in the lounge and Ji Lin was also there.
When she saw Ji Lin, Siyu was stunned. The expression on Ji Lins face was the gloomiest that she had ever seen as if wind and rain were coming. It was completely different from the somewhat silly big boy image that he had previously shown her.
Directly Liang politely asked Chen Yue to wait outside. When there were only the three of them left in the room, he then kindly asked Siyu to sit down.
Siyu was feeling a bit unsteady due to her fever. When she took a seat, she was overcome with a burst of dizziness and almost collapsed onto the sofa. Fortunately, she held onto the armrest in time. Otherwise, she would have made a fool of herself.
“Director Liang, what matter is so urgent?” Siyu composed herself and looked at Ji Lin calmly. What was so rare was the fact that after she came in, Ji Lin actually didnt look at her with the sparkling eyes that he used to have. Rather, he was staring blankly at the floor. It was unknown what he was thinking about.
“Siyu, I just want you to know about the situation. Do you have a conflict with the Jiang Citys Ji family?” Director Liang asked.
Ji family? Siyu vaguely understood something. She politely said, “Director Liang, If you [formal] have something to say, just say it directly.”
“Then Ill just say it.” Director Liang rubbed his hand somewhat awkwardly, “Ji family suddenly said theyre considering withdrawing their investment. Of course, theres still leeway in this matter. However, it would probably cause you great inconvenience. I also asked Ji Lin, he said.”
“It was not my doing!” Ji Lin suddenly raised his head and interrupted Director Liang. His eyes were shimmering with tears but he stared unwaveringly at Siyu, “I didnt give such an order!”
Riel: It was so funny that Ji Lin had rebutted even before Director Liang finished his sentence. Ji Lin was like a bullied little bunny LOL.
