Yun Shudai looked at the wine in front of her. It would seem pretentious not to drink it, so she didn't say anything. But with so many years of experience, she knew that nothing good would come of it today. She picked up her glass and thought of a way to get out of there: "Since Producer Wang has already downed it, if I don't drink it, Director Yang and Producer Wang will definitely complain about me later."
With that, he downed the drink in one gulp.
The men around her laughed heartily, enlivening the atmosphere, and urged Yun Shudai to eat.
"Since it's Producer Wang, how can a junior like me not drink it?"
Director Yang, who was standing nearby, whispered to her, "Shushu, these are the investors for the next drama. They all admire you, so they asked you to come and meet them."
Listening to Director Yang's words, Yun Shudai looked at the men around her, politely gestured to them, and then picked up her wine glass. One glass of wine after another made her feel a little dizzy.
In her present life, she frequently attends social events and can drink quite a lot, if not a hundred. However, it seems that her current body doesn't have a very high alcohol tolerance.
As people came over to offer her drinks, and as she listened to Director Yang explain the play to her, Yun Shudai felt more and more that Director Yang was just making empty promises to her.
"Miss Yun, you are truly a promising young person. Watching you on TV today, Director Yang kept praising you for your high comprehension and strong potential. I believe that it won't be long before Miss Yun is destined for great things."
Yun Shudai said with a forced smile, "Thank you for your kind words, Producer Wang. I will never forget you one day."
She had unknowingly been given several drinks by the bosses. Just as she took out her phone to call Sister Yao, Producer Wang snatched it away from her: "Miss Yun, what are you looking at your phone for? Hurry up and tell President Zhang about your previous films."
Yun Shudai looked at the phone that had been taken away, her heart skipped a beat, but she didn't show it on her face. She took a sip of red wine, smiled at Mr. Zhang, and said, "So Mr. Zhang is so interested in my drama. I'll go to the restroom first, and then I'll have a good chat with you when I get back."
He got up as he spoke, without even taking his phone.
The real-life Yun Shudai went from a small extra to a successful figure in the industry, even winning numerous high-quality awards. This wasn't solely due to her acting skills. In this society, regardless of the industry, if you want to succeed, you must first learn how to be a good person. This is why she was able to emerge from such a chaotic environment.
Yun Shudai arrived at the restroom in a daze. Without caring whether she was wearing makeup or not, she washed her face with water to wake herself up.
She took out a cotton pad from her bag and wiped away the smudged eyeliner while waiting for someone to come to the restroom.
I was thinking of borrowing someone's phone to call Sister Yao and find a way to get her out of there, but after a long time, no one came in.
Just as she was about to go downstairs to the front desk, she was stopped by Producer Wang, who came towards her with a forced smile. "Miss Yun, the private room is over here. Where are you going?"
Yun Shudai didn't want to get entangled with them either: "Producer Wang, we've talked enough for today. I'm thinking of rushing back tonight to celebrate the New Year with my parents, so please excuse me. I'll have my driver pick up my phone later."
Upon hearing Yun Shudai's words, Producer Wang's smile suddenly turned meaningful: "Miss Yun, are you drunk? How can you travel like this? Would you like me to take you to a room to rest?" As he spoke, Producer Wang's hand began to wander and reach for her slender waist.
