Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Jiang Lu heard that the main lead had received a red packet of 20 million yuan and that even Yu Wan, who was just a third-rate actress, had only received a red packet of 8 million yuan, she casually smashed a crystal display beside her.
The next sentence in the small group made her so angry that her insides started to hurt.
[Sister Lu, your Sister Jiang Zhi actually received a red packet of 20 million yuan. I’m so envious!!!]
[Sister Lu, congratulations!]
One of the actresses thought that Jiang Lu and Jiang Zhi were blood-related sisters. It was also a happy occasion for Jiang Zhi to receive so much dividends, so she congratulated Jiang Lu.
However, this well-meaning congratulation completely ignited Jiang Lu’s sensitive nerves.
[It’s only a few million, yet you’re already so happy. You guys really haven’t seen the world!]
When Jiang Lu thought about the 30 million that Jiang Zhi had received, which should have been hers, all of her rationality snapped. She did not care about her image in the outside world. After venting her anger, she immediately left the group chat.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She threw away the work at hand and went straight to Yan Zhang’s office. She saw Yan Zhang sitting behind his desk, so she simply sat on the desk in front of him and spoke with an aggrieved look on her face.
“I heard that sister received 20 million in ‘Beacon’. If she didn’t deliberately make me leave the production team, this money would have been ours!”
Jiang Lu’s fingertips lightly tapped on Yan Zhang’s chest, and her face looked like she was about to cry.
“20 million?”
When Yan Zhang heard Jiang Lu’s words, he immediately cried out in surprise. After all, if the follow-up income and dividends of this drama had not been added, this was not a small amount.
This time, he had actually given this b*tch Jiang Zhi such a big win.
“You say that sister clearly doesn’t have money, yet she still insists on securing Director Zheng’s next drama’s investment. Isn’t this obviously her means of cutting off your income?
“She knows that Director Zheng’s works would definitely be able to make money. This is really too much.”
Jiang Lu spoke coquettishly like a little girl. When she saw Yan Zhang’s expression instantly change, a trace of pride flashed through her heart.
“No, I must get Director Zheng’s new movie!”
Yan Zhang’s eyes were filled with greed. He did not bother to coax Jiang Lu and stood up from his chair. He walked to the French window and called Director Zheng.
“Director Zheng, I’m here this time to talk about investing in your next movie.”
Yan Zhang changed his domineering attitude from before and his tone was unusually gentle.
“As long as you accept my investment, I won’t push Jiang Lu to be the female lead. I won’t interfere with the filming of your script, and I won’t interfere with the selection of your actors. Moreover, I promise that the investment can be completed in one step.”
Director Zheng admitted that he was tempted. Yan Zhang had the Yan family behind him, and they had a lot of assets. If he did not blindly interfere with every step of his creative process, he would indeed be a good partner.
“But, I have already agreed to Jiang Zhi’s deal…”
A trace of mockery flashed across Yan Zhang’s eyes. Although his tone was still calm, there was a hint of mockery in it.
“Jiang Zhi can’t even get the money to redeem her villa. How can she have the money to invest?
“Director Zheng, don’t be deceived by that woman. If the follow-up funds are insufficient, it won’t be good to implicate the production team.”
Director Zheng thought about it for a moment and finally relented.
“Director Yan, I need time to think about it.”
Yan Zhang thought that Director Zheng had compromised and was just putting on the airs of a famous director. Satisfied, he hung up the phone.
Seeing that Yan Zhang was in a good mood after the call, Jiang Lu assumed that he must have already negotiated the terms of the investment with Director Zheng. She immediately laid her hand on Yan Zhang’s arm and said tenderly.
“Dear, how’s the preparation going with Director Zheng? Should I, as the female lead, discuss the script with Director Zheng First?”
When Yan Zhang heard this, he froze slightly. Then, he pulled Jiang Lu into his embrace, pressed her onto the sofa, and pinched her chin with his fingers.
“Not this time, but don’t worry, I will compensate you in other ways.
“For example, this…”
As Yan Zhang spoke, one of his hands touched the soft flesh on her chest while the other moved down, gently pulling open her long skirt and separating her legs.
Jiang Lu was not willing to give up on this female lead. She quickly grabbed the thing that was causing trouble to her body and said softly.
“I don’t care. If I don’t become the female lead, I’ll only be laughed at by others!”
She gently hooked her arm around Yan Zhang’s head, slightly straightened her body, and brought the beautiful scene in front of her chest to Yan Zhang’s mouth. Her voice was full of coquettishness.
“Do you have the heart to see me suffer?”
Yan Zhang gently bit on the red date in front of his eyes. Listening to the woman’s soft breathing, all the blood in his body rushed to his lower body. Blood was quickly leaving his brain, and his lower body was firmly controlled by her, so he could only helplessly coax her.
“Plus, how about the variety show ‘Please take your seats’?”
Jiang Lu knew that this was Yan Zhang’s bottom line, and she also knew to stop when the time was right. She let go of his lower extremity and planted her lips on his shoulder. Her eyelashes trembled slightly.
“I’m doing this for you, do you know that?”
Once Yan Zhang’s desire was released, he rushed straight in. How could he hear what Jiang Lu said? He unconsciously agreed and quickly moved..
