Chapter 1429 Choose 2
In the quiet dinner scene, the sound of high heels was particularly crisp.
Li Jinyu turned around irritably. Before he even saw who it was, he angrily said, "Who is it?! Do you know the birthday party has already started?! If you don't want to come, you don't have to come!"
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone present gasped.
Li Jinyu is really domineering. Director Li has a lot of face in the entertainment industry, and the people he invites are all well-known. Those who come late are usually big shots. If this angry retort is made known and it is said about someone who is not easy to mess with in the industry, Director Li will also be embarrassed.
Everyone shook their heads inwardly, their eyes eagerly looking to see who the latecomer was.
The sound of high heels, getting closer little by little.
Everyone held their breath.
She wore a light green long skirt, had a slender waist that could be held in one hand, and her cold face was made even more stunning by the already cool emerald green color.
Her shoulder-length hair fluttered in the wind, and she walked with swift and neat steps. Her eyes were expressionless, and she was as cold as an unattainable snow lotus.
The beauty came from the corner and stood at the door, glancing around casually, completely ignoring everyone's curious gazes.
Her gaze fixed on a certain place, and then she saw the impatience on someone's face.
Her lips, which had naturally turned red, parted slightly, and under the gaze of everyone, she met someone's gaze, then said coldly, "Isn't it over yet?"
The man who had just been full of heroic spirit shrank his neck under everyone's gaze, then breathed a sigh of relief, with a sense of relief.
Zhou Chenshu said to the girl, "Okay, wait for me to say something."
Zhou Chenshu turned to Director Li and said, "Director Li, my family is here to pick me up. I'll be leaving now. Thank you for your hospitality today."
After saying that, Zhou Chenshu nodded and walked out.
"You can't leave!" Li Jinyu immediately walked over and raised her hand, blocking Zhou Chenshu's way. Jealousy flashed between her brows. "You haven't even danced with me yet! This is my 18th birthday ceremony, you have to give me this honor! And who is this woman?!"
Zhou Chenshu said that he was quite patient when facing the situation.
But Liu Shuyi didn't like anyone saying anything bad about him, not even mentioning his name.
"They are my family members, please move aside!" Zhou Chenshu's tone was visibly serious.
"You!" Li Jinyu noticed it herself, and with a sad face, tears fell down, "How dare you be mean to me!"
At home, she is the queen. For so many years, no one dared to be mean to her. Zhou Chenshu actually didn't give her face in front of so many people!
This is intolerable!
"You're being mean to me just for this woman?!" Li Jinyu turned his head in dissatisfaction and stared at Liu Shuyi fiercely, "Who the hell are you?!"
There was arrogance in Li Jinyu's eyes when she looked at Liu Shuyi. She believed that in the whole country, no one could help Zhou Chenshu as much as her own father. She had to keep Zhou Chenshu in her hands.
Even this thin, cold and beautiful woman can't do it!
Facing a woman who was prettier than this one, Li Jinyu actually felt a little vulnerable, but she held on with all her strength and faced it. Today, she had to make Zhou Chenshu dance with her!
"How dare you," Liu Shuyi said, his eyes cold and heavy, without a trace of emotion, "ask me who I am?"
Everyone at the scene gasped.
Who is this girl? Why is she so arrogant?!
There was no expression on his face, but beneath this indifference, he looked ferocious.
Li Jinyu was furious. "Why, which family are you from? Why can't others ask?" Li Jinyu glanced at Liu Shuyi up and down, quite arrogantly. "I've met many socialites in high society, but I've never met someone as arrogant as you. Come on, tell me, which wealthy and aristocratic family are you from?"
Zhou Chenshu frowned and was about to speak when he saw Liu Shuyi smile.
It was a very short and sarcastic smile. When he raised his eyes, the sarcasm in his eyes was undisguised.
"You, what are you laughing at?!"
"The peak of life is only a hundred years. Relying on family background, with your brain, I'm afraid your future will be difficult. Of course, if you must ask who I am, I can also tell you mercifully that I don't have any family background, so don't tremble. All I have is a little bit of what I have earned with my bare hands."
Director Li stopped Li Jinyu who was about to step forward. Director Li had seen the world, and when he walked forward, he didn't know why, but he felt that the girl in front of him looked familiar.
"Girl, have we met before?"
Liu Shuyi looked at Director Li and said calmly, "I saw you at the door of my master's house a few years ago."
Director Li was stunned for a moment, and then memories came flooding back.
Liu Shuyi looked at Director Li and said indifferently, "But you asked to see my master and ask him to take you as his disciple, but he didn't agree. I was confused at the time, but now that I see how you teach your daughter, I feel that my confusion has been resolved."
"Dad! What is he talking about!"
Director Li tugged at Li Jinyu's hand and said, "Stop talking about this. He's the last disciple of Mr. Coclo, the most famous international director."
Li Jinyu didn't understand any of this. "What? Sir? Are you really that powerful?"
Director Li: "What do you think? In front of these people, my dad and I are nothing!"
He was already quite famous in China, and even though he had come to study under the master, he was still turned away. It was embarrassing to say that he waited outside for three days and three nights. When he was about to faint, the master only called on Liu Shuyi's only closed disciple to convey a message, "Go back."
There are only these two words, no more.
After saying that, the heavy door closed, leaving him with regret for many years.
Later he inquired about the girl named Liu Shuyi, and at first he didn't understand what was wrong with him.
Until I saw Liu Shuyi's achievements.
Only then was he convinced.
The youngest student in the university with a double doctorate in medicine and finance, graduated in the same year with a cross-disciplinary directing major. He received the highest praise and the highest-level scholarship from the president, and became a sensation in the university at that time. During his time in school, he once directed a work whose lighting, rhythm, and emotional guidance became a powerful tool for university admissions.
To this day, Liu Shuyi's photo is still posted on the column for the best graduates, and the column clearly reads:
Liu Shuyi, female, won the highest achievement among all directorial projects that year with her short film "The Way Home".
That short film was only fifteen minutes long, but Director Li still remembers it vividly and is completely convinced.
"Zhou Chenshu," Liu Shuyi looked up, looking across the crowd, and said to Zhou Chenshu, who was stunned and didn't understand why Director Li suddenly looked so pious, "Why don't you come over here?"
Zhou Chenshu took a step forward.
Li Jinyu: "You..." Director Li grabbed him and scolded him softly, "Don't go. Liu Shuyi is not someone you can offend!"
There is a serious tendency for cliques to form in the circle of foreign directors. The students under Coclo's name are all big names in the industry. It is rumored that Coclo is very fond of this only disciple and has instructed all students that if Liu Shuyi needs him in the future, they must do their best to protect her.
At that time, there was a famous foreign director who was dissatisfied. At Coclo's command, all his students attacked him. Finally, all the director's works were taken off the shelves. He had no chance to participate in any filming and production. He was banned by the entire industry. He even reached the point where he couldn't even shoot small films. In the end, the director died of depression.
His current status cannot be compared with that banned director. He is still barely worth mentioning in China, but if he is ranked in the world, he is really nothing to look at.
How dare he act rashly?
Zhou Chenshu didn't know what was going on, but he was happy to follow them. He walked over timidly, grinning at them, "You're here."
Liu Shuyi hummed, his expression softening a bit, "Let's go back."
Zhou Chenshu was very obedient and soft, "Yeah, I knew you would come to pick me up."
Liu Shuyi didn't say anything and walked out. Only after they both walked a long way away did Li Jinyu burst into tears.
"Dad, what do you mean?"
"Why did you just—"
"Pa!" A sharp slap sounded, shocking the entire audience.
Everyone, including Li Jinyu herself, was stunned. She looked at Director Li in disbelief, "Dad, you, hit me?"
"Yes, I hit you. Did you know who that person was? Liu Shuyi, you can't afford to offend her! She just said that life can be turned upside down in just a hundred years. If she wants, tomorrow will be the Li family's hundredth year! Go upstairs and reflect on yourself! I spoiled you too much, and that's why you're so lawless!"
A birthday party started with great enthusiasm and ended quietly.
"You really have to?" Li's mother was very dissatisfied, tears in her eyes. "From childhood to adulthood, my daughter has never suffered such a big injustice. You hit her in front of so many people and made her lose face. How can she interact with her friends in the future?"
"Is Liu Shuyi really that powerful? Can he bankrupt our family in an instant? I don't believe it, Old Li. The older you get, the less courageous you become!"
"Today is my daughter's eighteenth birthday, and you actually laid hands on her. What a father you are!"
"Besides, how could you be so useless as to let Zhou Chenshu be taken away like that? I'm telling you, I was bragging outside that Zhou Chenshu was my son-in-law of the Li family. If you don't take care of Zhou Chenshu and send him to my daughter, making me lose face in front of those ladies, I will never let you go!"
Director Li yelled irritably, "Stop bothering me! I told you, you're not someone we can mess with! You won't cry until you see the coffin, right? If you're really banned, let's see how you'll live your life in the future!"
Director Li finished speaking and left in a hurry.
A few minutes later.
Mother Li looked at Li Jinling standing in the corner, narrowed her sharp eyes, took a few big steps over, grabbed Li Jinling's arm and made her face her.
"Pa!" A slap sounded.
The woman's hand slapped Li Jinling's face, and it swelled up like a bun. Blood flowed from the corners of her mouth.
"Bitch!"
"Don't you even consider your own character or status? How dare you snatch Jin Yu's man from him? Who are you trying to seduce, you vixen? I'm warning you, don't covet what's not yours, or I'll kill you!"
After saying this, Li's mother left coldly.
Li Jinling covered her face with her hands, her eyes lowered to the floor, hatred spreading in her eyes.
Li Jinyu likes Zhou Chenshu, right?
She just had to compete with her! These people looked down on her, so she was determined to make Li Jinyu love but unable to get it, heartbroken!
Zhou Chenshu, she is determined to win!
