Chapter 983: No Room for Me Between You Two Huh

Nan Jiaojiao politely thought for a moment, “Who is Old Chen?”

“Director.”

“Oh,” Nan Jiaojiao paused, “Does he want to take advantage of me?”

Chu Yao wasn’t surprised, anyway, the thought process of these people couldn’t be compared to normal people.

She simply said, “He never takes advantage of actors; his family keeps him in check, so he doesn’t dare.

But if he discovers a talent, he absolutely has to drag them into his movies.”

“What does that have to do with me?”

“You can fight!”

Chu Yao estimated that explaining too much would be pointless; Nan Jiaojiao probably wouldn’t listen.

Her brain capacity was filled with pastries and Bo Yanching; anything else was too much hassle, she’d just hear half of what was said.

After thinking about it, she explained, “He asked Sister Mi about you, and Sister Mi turned him away.

If you want to act—”

“I don’t want to.”

“You really don’t?” Chu Yao’s words got stuck by those three words, and she couldn’t resist teasing, “People in the industry all hope to be in his movies; even a minor role is worth it, don’t you want to?”

“I’m not in the industry.”

“…”

Oh, right, what she said made perfect sense.

Chu Yao decided, “Alright then, I’ll go talk to him.

As long as I’m here, I can protect you.”

“I’m going to the wardrobe room to sort out the costumes for the few scenes this afternoon and give them to Sister Mi to keep an eye on.

I’ll come back here and nap later.”

Chu Yao’s gaze followed Nan Jiaojiao standing up, teasingly asked, “Was last night that intense, you need half a day to catch up on sleep?”

Nan Jiaojiao half-turned back, “What do you know about the pleasures of the bed, being just a single older girl?”

“Damn it!”

Chu Yao grabbed a throw pillow and tossed it over.

Nan Jiaojiao stepped out quickly, her body swiftly flashed out, and then she closed the door.

The pillow hit the door without making a sound.

Just as she stepped out, she received a call from Pei Dongshi, “I’ll pick you up tomorrow, send me the address of your crew.”

Nan Jiaojiao looked up at the sky, silently cursing in her heart, “Pei Bapi.”

“You cursed out loud!”

Nan Jiaojiao’s mouth opened a bit, “Sorry about that.”

“I talked to Bo Yanching, told him you’d be coming with me for a few days.”

“Did he agree?”

“No, I texted him.”

Nan Jiaojiao couldn’t understand how someone could be so shameless and yet confident, “He’s on a plane; you should call him back later.”

“Why call him again?

I’m not busy, am I?

Texting him was enough, it’s not like I need his agreement.

What, you two in love have no room for me anymore in between?”

After saying this, Pei Dongshi realized it wasn’t quite right, felt he’d placed himself in a rather delicate position, and quickly hung up without waiting for Nan Jiaojiao to react.

For a moment, Nan Jiaojiao really wanted to block him.

Rongcheng.

Ye Wanting, Madam Ye, and their aunt went to the supermarket, the aunt loaded up the shopping cart with anything she saw, even took two durians she usually couldn’t afford, each over two hundred bucks.

Ye Wanting thought it was too extravagant and that they couldn’t eat it all, tried to stop her aunt, but got a faceful of her scorn instead.

“It’s just two durians, what’s the matter, can’t bear it?

You mother and daughter are squatting in our house, and I said nothing?

Really think my family is rich, and can support any freeloader?”

Ye Wanting suddenly realized she was being played as a sucker.

“Aunt, I didn’t mean it like that, I just think…”

“What do you mean, what do you mean?

If you’re not willing, just say so!”
