Chapter 678 Banknote

“F*ck!” Ning Ran fumed. Seeing her friend on the verge of a breakdown made Lu Jingyuan feel rather guilty. “Should I not have told you all this?”

Ning Ran drew in a deep breath. “Don’t worry about it. It’s a good thing you told me. I’ll call him and ask him about it right away.”

However, Lu Jingyuan quickly stopped her from doing so. “If you give him a call right now and interrogate him, won’t I be put in an awkward situation?”

“Well, I can’t pretend nothing happened, right? Fine, I’ll call him when we get back and question him then.” Ning Ran sat down and grabbed the bottle that was sitting on the table. She then chugged a few mouthfuls of wine straight from the bottle.

Lu Jingyuan took the bottle back from her and chided, “Don’t drink so much.”

While Ning Ran and Lu Jingyuan were talking and the former was on the brink of a full-blown meltdown, the director of I Am You and Huang Zichao were also having a drink in a nearby restaurant.

Huang Zichao was an award-winning actor and a household name. Any director, regardless of their popularity, would still have to treat a big shot like him respectfully.

Therefore, it was no surprise that the director would personally pour Huang Zichao a glass of wine and utter words of flattery.

Huang Zichao had been forcing himself to accept the director’s blandishments, but in the end, he couldn’t take it anymore.

A crease formed between his eyebrows as he queried, “Do you have anything to say to me? Is there an issue with my performance? Go ahead and speak your mind. I’m happy to accept criticisms. After all, it can help me improve.”

“Oh, no! You’re great! Your performance matches perfectly with Ding Mi’s. It’s outstanding, really!” The director laughed, once again, filling Huang Zichao’s glass with wine.

At that point, Huang Zichao was done with the endless pleasantries. We’ve been socializing for half a day, yet he’s not saying anything important. What the h*ll does he want?

“Please don’t be like this. Just say what you have in mind. I’d feel uneasy if you won’t be frank with me.” He didn’t bother drinking the wine and stared intently at the director.

“It’s nothing. I’m just chatting with you. Oh right, what do you think of Ding Mi as a person?”
