Chapter 724: You Will Go to Jail

“We haven’t caught them in the act yet.”

Chu Yao was flabbergasted and, infuriated, pinched her own pressure point.

“Fine, if that day really comes, just tell me, and I’ll bring a knife over to chop off Bo Yanching’s thing first.”

Nan Jiaojiao’s expression was strange, “You’d go to jail for that.”

“…” Thanks a lot.

Chu Yao didn’t want to talk to her anymore and started reading a novel on her phone.

But she didn’t even get through two pages before she quit and started browsing Weibo.

With investments from people like Mo Tingshen, all the related companies had contributed a sum, and Weibo was buzzing with activity.

So far, no photos from the film set had leaked; they had only posted previously released stills.

Only of Chu Yao.

As a result, not many people knew who the male lead was.

The production team was making money hand over fist, everyone was grinning from ear to ear, treating Chu Yao like a revered saint.

Soon, a little assistant came back carrying milk tea and pastries.

Chu Yao took out her coffee first and set it aside, then tore open a straw and stuck it into the milk tea, passing it to Nan Jiaojiao.

“Have this for now.

After we’re done, big sis will take you out for something delicious and we’ll call Lu Zhenzhen too.”

Nan Jiaojiao glanced at her, with an “I knew you were up to no good” look.

Sure enough, Chu Yao suddenly pulled out her phone, “Didn’t she fail to give the money?”

Nan Jiaojiao rolled her eyes, “She did pay, right behind Yaen Chi, two billion.

Didn’t you see it?”

“Really?”

Chu Yao specifically checked Lu Zhenzhen’s private Weibo.

The Little Princess of Rongcheng City had quite a reputation with over ten million followers, but her account wasn’t that hot compared to the likes of Mo Tingshen and Bo Yanching, so it hadn’t really taken off.

But she did post a message:

Here, big sis has plenty of money.

Chu Yao bit her lip and chuckled, “She’s got guts, daring to take advantage of me.”

Nan Jiaojiao thought to herself, the two of you are pretty much the same, each never conceding to the other since you were kids.

Always vying to be the older one.

Nan Jiaojiao lingered in Chu Yao’s dressing room waiting until Sister Mi called her.

Chu Yao was the lead actress and had to stand in the front row.

She wanted to have Nan Jiaojiao at her side, but Nan Jiaojiao wasn’t comfortable facing so many cameras, and standing next to Chu Yao made her too conspicuous.

She volunteered to slip to the back.

Chu Yao didn’t press her and had the assistant who had picked her up before accompany her instead.

They changed positions a few times.

Chu Yao always had the male lead on her left side.

Initially, the second male and female leads stood to her right, but then somehow, Yi Qinghuan ended up next to her.

It was then that Chu Yao realized just how famous Yi Qinghuan was; otherwise, the reporters wouldn’t have chosen her for an interview.

But after answering just two questions, Yi Qinghuan stopped.

She knew not to steal the spotlight and conscientiously moved to the back row after the interview.

This left a very good impression on the media.

Nan Jiaojiao was in the very last row; she didn’t try to push forward since she was here representing E.Y today.

With her face unrecognized beneath a hat deliberately pulled low, she blended unremarkably into the crowd.

Just when she was getting bored, Bo Yanching called her, and she hung up on him.

“Did you just hang up on me?” A text message followed immediately.

Nan Jiaojiao lifted her phone, found a good angle, and took a selfie to send to him.

She was wearing casual clothes inside and a custom down jacket from the film crew on the outside, given to her by Chu Yao just before.

Its style was slightly different from the others’, without a cinched waist and shorter in length.

It was stuffed with more down, making it somewhat cumbersome for others, but it was a special piece for Chu Yao, whom she had shared one with Nan Jiaojiao.
