Chapter 58: Your father's pockets are broken

"stop!"

Seeing that the wooden stick in the second male lead's hand was about to hit Meng Yushu's knee, Liu Zhi's heart stopped. Without caring about anything else, she immediately rushed forward and grabbed the stick.

She glared at the second male lead, "Are you filming a scene or murder?"

"Who is it?" The director jumped up in anger when he saw an unrelated person intruding into the camera. "We are filming, where did these strangers come from?"

"I want to see what kind of show you are filming!" Liu Zhi snatched the stick from the second male lead Chen Pingwei and threw it on the ground.

The director was stunned by the clanging sound of the wooden stick falling to the ground, and he quickly ran over to pick up the stick and examine it carefully.

Then he flew into a rage and yelled at the staff, "Props Team! What's going on? Why are they using solid wooden sticks?!"

No one dared to say a word.

Chen Pingwei shrugged nonchalantly, saying, "Director, isn't acting about real action? It's just a short play, but how much money was invested in it? You're hoping to gain a good reputation with this short play so you can move on to TV dramas, right?"

The director pursed his lips tightly, unable to refute.

It’s not that he really cares about reputation, but Chen Pingwei’s identity is not simple.

A rich second-generation young man, who is quite good-looking, wants to become famous through short dramas and then become a film and television actor.

After all, they were just a small crew. If they offended Chen Pingwei, not to mention being able to film TV series in the future, it would be a problem whether they could continue to stay in the short drama circle.

Seeing that something was not right, the heroine Tang Yihan also came over.

Her eyes were red, perhaps because she was still recovering from the drama. She stared at Chen Pingwei with resentment, "Last week, you slapped Yu Shu in the face, and this week you switched to a solid wooden stick. Are you targeting him on purpose?"

"What's wrong with me targeting him on purpose?" Chen Pingwei didn't care. Emotions surged in his eyes as he looked at Tang Yihan. "My dad is the investor of this drama! I can act however I want!"

Liu Zhi helped Meng Yushu up and glared at Chen Pingwei fiercely, "You're quite arrogant. Whose dog dares to act so arrogantly here?"

Fortunately, she rushed over and stopped him, otherwise, Meng Yushu might have broken his leg like Meng Anran did back then!

In fact, Meng Anran was injured more seriously than before, and she might never be able to walk normally again.

Chen Pingwei snorted coldly, glaring resentfully at Meng Yushu, who was in so much pain that he couldn't stand up straight. "You're so lucky! It's a pity that no matter how pretty you are, you're just a poor fellow!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure came swiftly.

Snap——

The slap was so loud and crisp, and the force was so great that Chen Pingwei's head was tilted and a red mark quickly appeared on his face.

Before Chen Pingwei could react, the other party picked up a wooden stick and hit him hard on the shoulder.

Chen Pingwei clutched his arm, grimacing in pain. His brows were furrowed so tightly they could kill a fly. "Where did you come from, you bitch? How dare you hit me? Do you know who I am? If you offend me, my dad won't forgive you!"

Meng Anran's expression was indifferent, and her tone was cold and hard: "I'd like to see how many coins your father has in his pocket to make you bark everywhere."

Everyone was stunned, Liu Zhi and Meng Yushu were even more dumbfounded, their eyes full of disbelief.

Huh? No...

Is it so fierce?

The situation was becoming increasingly uncontrollable, and the director hurried forward to smooth things over. After all, he really couldn't afford to offend Chen Pingwei. Once the investor withdrew his investment, the company would not let him off!

"Everyone, stop arguing and go to the hospital for a checkup first, okay?"

It stands to reason that when facing someone with higher status than oneself, one should step down when encountering a step. The director guessed that Meng Yushu, a part-time worker, probably did not want to offend Chen Pingwei.

Meng Yushu didn't say anything, but instead hit the girl. Her voice was so cold that it made people feel like they were falling into an icy cave: "My brother was maliciously targeted during filming and was beaten severely. If you don't handle this matter today, you can forget about being a director in the future."

Although he didn't know the girl's identity, she exuded an indescribable pressure that made the director's hair stand on end.

Could it be... another big shot that we can't afford to offend?

An awkward smile formed on his face as he lowered his voice and said awkwardly, "Little girl, this is the only son of Chen Yadong, the president of Jetta Magazine. Mr. Chen is the investor of this drama, and we are really in a difficult situation. How about this, send Yu Shu to the hospital for a checkup first, and our crew will definitely pay for the medical expenses!"

"Jetta Magazine?"

Meng Anran raised her eyebrows, turned her head and looked at Liu Zhi with an inquiring look. The other party also shook her head in confusion and quickly sent a message in the class group.

[Liuzhi]: Does anyone know Chen Yadong from Jetta Magazine?

Ming Jing: What small company? I've never heard of it.

Others also replied quickly. Some had heard of Jetta Magazine but didn't take it seriously, while others didn't know it at all.

That’s good. I don’t know him, which proves he is not an important person.

Seeing Liu Zhi shaking her head again, Meng Anran took out her cell phone from her bag and called Lin Mi directly.

The other end picked up almost instantly.

Meng Anran ignored Lin Mi's various pleasantries and spoke directly, "My brother was maliciously targeted by the investor's son on the set and was severely injured by a solid wooden stick. Send me the contact information of Chen from Jetta Magazine."

Without waiting for a response from the other end, she cut off the call.

Meeting the director's stunned gaze, Meng Anran said lightly, "Let me introduce myself. I am Meng Anran, the largest shareholder of Yunchuan Film and Television, and Meng Yushu is my biological brother."

The director's eyes visibly widened rapidly, and then his legs went limp and he collapsed to the ground.

She...she is actually the legendary President An?!

A little girl?!

Before filming began, he had heard that the brother of Mr. An, the largest shareholder of Yunchuan, had also joined the crew, but there was no actor with the surname An in the crew, so he always thought it was just rumors.

Who would have thought that Mr. An’s last name was Meng!

Chen Pingwei, still unaware of the seriousness of the situation, glared at Meng Anran with mockery and viciousness, saying, "So what if you're the largest shareholder of Yunchuan? This drama was invested in by our Chen family, so we, the Chen family, have the final say! You, Yunchuan, are nothing more than the second party, dogs working for money!"

Meng Anran hasn't thrown away the stick in her hand yet.

Seeing the man in front of her provoking her without knowing the consequences, Ran Jie, who was ruthless, raised her wooden stick and hit him again without saying a word.

Chen Pingwei was beaten so hard that he ran away in panic.

I'm tired, take a break.

Let the willow branches do the work.

Meng Anran handed the wooden stick to Liuzhi and took over the position of supporting Meng Yushu.

Liu Zhi naturally would not let Chen Pingwei go. Brother Yu Shu was so gentle and considerate, and he cared so much about her best friend. If he was bullied, she would get rid of this anger!

Unable to afford to offend either side, the director stood there like a wooden stake, keeping his mouth shut and trying to reduce his presence.

Meng Anran glanced away from him and said, "Move a chair over here."

"Hey! Okay!"

The director acted like a slave, nodding and bowing as he ran to move out his most comfortable director's chair.
