Han Mingyi remembered that there would be a banquet prepared by the investors in a few days, and all the actors in the play would be invited to attend. This was arranged a long time ago.
"This is a good opportunity."
When the phone rang again, Han Mingyi chose to answer it.
The man on the other end of the phone was very excited to finally get through.
"Mingyi, you finally answered my call. Has it been thought through and you're going to accept my proposal?"
Han Mingyi thought to herself with disdain, "He doesn't even look at himself, yet he dares to pursue me?"
But she only thought this to herself. She needed the boss's cooperation for what was to come, so she had to make him happy first and not upset him at this time.
"You brought up marriage right off the bat, which is hard for people to accept right away," Han Mingyi said, making her voice extremely sweet and affected.
She knew that this was exactly the kind of thing the boss was into.
"Then tell me what to do. I'll do whatever you say, as long as you agree."
Han Mingyi coaxed, "We haven't gotten to know each other well enough, how can you expect me to marry you so quickly?"
The boss was overjoyed upon hearing this.
"You mean, you want to be with me..."
He often sought solace in brothels when he had nothing to do, so he naturally understood what Han Mingyi was saying.
"Do I really need to spell it out?" Han Mingyi said to the boss, trying to suppress her nausea.
"Five days from now, the investors of the drama I'm filming will be holding a banquet, and they will invite me to attend."
You absolutely have to come!
The boss wished he could go and spend some quality time with Han Mingyi right now, but he also knew that after so many days of persistence, it was already quite difficult to get his goddess to give in.
We can't push our luck any further; we might scare Mingyi away.
"Don't worry, I know the investors of your show. It's just a matter of me saying a few words."
"I'll definitely be there on time. I hope Mingyi won't let me down!"
After receiving a positive reply from the boss, Han Mingyi didn't say another word and quickly hung up the phone.
She would find it disgusting to say another word.
However, she would soon no longer have to endure such days, as Jian Ruoxi would take her place and love the boss well.
After resting at home for two days, Jian Ruoxi began to prepare for the upcoming banquet. While she was at home discussing with Lu Jin what dress to wear, someone kept knocking on the door.
Who is it?
As soon as she opened the door, Jian Ruoxi saw Ran Jie standing there calmly.
Seeing Ran Jie's ambiguous smile, Jian Ruoxi unconsciously began to feel guilty.
I don't think I've offended him these past few days, so why does he have that expression?
"Haven't you had any announcements lately? Why are you so interested?" Jian Ruoxi said with an awkward smile.
But what he was really thinking about was how to get rid of this big Buddha statue.
"Is there a banquet afterwards? Prepared by the investors?"
Jian Ruoxi was somewhat at a loss for words when Ran Jie asked her a question. “Yes, it was decided a long time ago.”
That's strange. Why is Ran Jie asking this? It has nothing to do with him.
"Why didn't anyone tell me!" Ran Jie suddenly shouted, startling Lu Jin inside the room.
"Ran Jie? What brings you here? Did you bring food?"
Ran Jie rolled her eyes at her. "Eat, eat, all you know is food. Did Tian Lei have his eye on you back then?"
When it comes to other matters, Lu Jin runs away faster than anyone else, but he rarely plays a useful role when it comes to important things.
If he hadn't seen Su Ziyu at the company today, he wouldn't have known about Jian Ruoxi's future plans.
"You didn't even bother to let me know about this event? What, you only plan to bring this unreliable Lu Jin along?" Ran Jie said, pointing his finger at Lu Jin.
Lu Jin was immediately displeased. How could she tolerate Ran Jie exposing Jian Ruoxi's shortcomings in front of her?
Then she wouldn't be the eldest daughter of the Lu family.
"Ran Jie, what are you saying? How am I unreliable? I'm a famous director now." Lu Jin puffed out his chest and raised his chin defiantly at Ran Jie.
Ran Jie didn't argue with her, but instead counted on his fingers.
"Yes, at the party, you stepped on Tianlei's shoe in public."
"When Tianlei won the award at the ceremony, you held him tightly and wouldn't let go."
"At Tianlei's birthday party, you drank too much and went up on stage to dance."
"besides……"
Ran Jie wanted to continue counting, but Lu Jin pressed down his outstretched fingers.
"Those were all accidents, and besides, those happened so many years ago, why do you remember them so clearly?"
If Ran Jie continues, her title as the eldest daughter of the Lu family will be completely ruined.
Fortunately, when the embarrassing incident happened, no one around her except Tian Lei and Ran Jie knew her.
Lu Jin turned to look at Jian Ruoxi, only to find that Jian Ruoxi had already moved quite far away from her at some point.
"Ruoxi, don't listen to Ran Jie's nonsense, it's all untrue."
No one replied to her.
Ran Jie asked Jian Ruoxi, "Are you sure you want her to stay with you?"
Jian Ruoxi immediately shook her head vigorously, like a rattle-drum; she still had a little bit of an image to maintain.
The fact that Li Tianlei could tolerate and even indulge what Ran Jie just said can only mean that he truly loves Xiao Jin.
Jian Ruoxi took Lu Jin's hand and said earnestly, "Xiao Jin, you shouldn't go to the banquet."
"Ran Jie just needs to stay with me, you just stay home."
Upon hearing this, Lu Jin began to panic.
How could I not go?
She's the director of this show; the investors invited her to participate.
“It’s okay. I’ll tell the investors you’re sick and can’t attend the dinner.”
Lu Jin pouted, "Ruoxi, I didn't expect you to be such a heartless person, actually leaving me home alone."
Jian Ruoxi stroked Lu Jin's head as if coaxing a child.
"Sweetie, I'll prepare all the food and drinks for you at home, and you can do whatever you want there."
Just don't go to the banquet with her; she can't handle Lu Jin's destructive power.
"That's right." Seeing that Jian Ruoxi was so understanding, Ran Jie felt relieved.
Compared to Tian Lei, Jian Ruoxi was more rational. No matter how she tried to persuade Tian Lei before, he just wouldn't listen.
"Hey, are you sure you're bringing Xiaojin this time? Haven't you embarrassed yourself enough last time?"
Hearing his cousin say such things about Lu Jin, Li Tianlei defended Lu Jin, "Cousin, Xiao Jin didn't do it on purpose, there's no need to be so harsh on her."
"Yes, of course I know she didn't do it on purpose, but this can't go on forever. Half of your scandals have now been contributed by her. What am I supposed to do?"
Some netizens have even compiled a list of Li Tianlei's most embarrassing moments.
"It's okay, as long as I can keep an eye on her."
"When she's by my side, no matter what she's doing, I find her incredibly adorable."
“I’m not afraid of causing trouble; I’d rather she trouble me like this for the rest of her life.”
