Chapter 381: Bustling Coming and Going
Xiao Muzhen glanced at her. There was no expression on his face, but Bai Xuening inexplicably felt that he was looking at her as if she were a fool.
She immediately exploded and said angrily, "I can't possibly quit this show. Mr. Xie, if I breach the contract now, not only will I have to return my boyfriend's investment in your company, but I'll also have to pay triple the liquidated damages. You'd better think it over carefully."
Xie Fu's expression was cold, and she finally turned to look at her, but her eyes were full of impatience.
"Queen Baiying, are you threatening me? Do you think I can't afford the penalty?"
Meeting her compelling gaze, Bai Xuening's eyes flashed with shock and disbelief. "If we pay the penalty, this show won't make any money! Are you sure you want to do something like this just out of anger?"
"Originally, I didn't want to do this, but you've offended my best friend today. Please pack up and leave immediately. We'll pay the penalty for breach of contract, but we'll also investigate the matter of you falsely accusing my best friend of stealing. Queen Bai should know whose reputation will be affected more in the end!"
Bai Xue Ning gritted her teeth in anger. She didn't expect Xie Fu to defend Chi Muzhen so much.
This bitch is such an eyesore whether in Chengdu or in Beijing!
"Okay, Mr. Xie, remember what I said today. I hope you won't regret it!"
After saying this coldly, Bai Xue Ning left angrily with her assistant.
Director Chen's face was grim. Xie Fu had driven Bai Xue Ning away, so how could he find a second female lead on short notice?!
"Mr. Xie, Bai Xuening has left the crew, so many of her scenes can't be filmed... If we don't find someone new quickly, it will definitely cause losses to the crew."
Xie Fu nodded, "I understand. I will find someone to take over as soon as possible."
Since she said that, the director didn't know what to say and turned around and left the dressing room.
Soon, most of the people in the dressing room had left, leaving only a few extras who were adjusting their costumes.
"Afu, how much does it cost to terminate the contract with Bai Xuening and that investor? Tell me the calculation and I'll pay you."
Xie Fu was originally venting her anger, so Xie Fu should not be asked to pay this money.
"No need. My company can afford it. Even if it wasn't you, I would have found an opportunity to terminate her contract soon. I've read the script of this play and I think it will be a huge hit. Bai Xue Ning has no acting skills and will only drag down the show."
Xiao Muzhen couldn't help but smile when he heard this, and nodded, "Okay, the investment I said is real. How about this, I will invest 200 million."
Xie Fu was shocked, as if she was meeting her for the first time. She suddenly hugged her arm and said, "Zhenzhen, you are so rich?! I will cling to you from now on!"
"Not a lot, all the money I made from drawing designs over the past few years."
"You can actually make so much money drawing blueprints?! No wonder you don't want to act!"
Seeing her eyes wide open, looking as cute as a little hamster, Xiao Muzhen's smile deepened a little.
"Of course, you don't know how popular my designs are in the market. Besides drawing designs, I also have other part-time jobs."
"You're so rich! Compared to you, I'm a poor man. Rich woman, please support me!"
"Okay, stop joking. Go ahead and do your work. I have something else to do later. I'll go to the company by myself."
Xie Fu had a lot of things to do today, so she didn't bother to be polite to her after hearing what she said.
"Okay, if you have any problems, just call me anytime. No matter where I am, I will rush to your side immediately!"
Xiao Muzhen: "..."
After Xie Fu left, Xiao Muzhen returned to his original position to continue modifying the design drawings, while waiting for Zhen Yan.
Near noon, Zhen Yan finally came back.
Before she had time to change her clothes, she quickly walked over to Xiao Muzhen and said, "Muzhen, are you okay? I just finished filming and heard the staff say that Bai Xuening gave you a hard time."
Although Xiao Muzhen had no memory of her, he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart when he saw the undisguised concern in her eyes.
And she had just investigated and found that she and Zhen Yan were indeed good friends.
"I'm fine, go change your clothes first."
"good."
Ten minutes later, Zhen Yan walked towards her.
She had her hair tied in a bun, wore a simple white T-shirt, jeans, and a pair of white canvas shoes. She looked so tender that you could almost pinch water out of her. No one would doubt her if she said she was still in college.
"Mu Zhen, let's go. I have a lot of questions to ask you."
"Um."
Because many people recognized Zhen Yan's face, the two of them found a restaurant with better privacy.
After sitting down in the box, Zhen Yan looked at her and said, "What exactly happened? Three years ago, we all thought you died in that fire. It took me half a year to get over it."
Xiao Muzhen told her about his amnesia and his experiences over the past three years. Zhen Yan couldn't help but sigh after hearing it.
"Alas, under the circumstances, it was good that you left. When I heard that Huo Yunting chose to save Chi Xuan, I was almost furious."
Xiao Muzhen explained the matter to her and told her that she was now living with Huo Yunting.
Zhen Yan was shocked when she heard this and raised her voice, "You and Huo Yunting divorced three years ago. We even got the divorce certificate at that time. How could you not have divorced yet? Huo Yunting must have lied to you!"
Xiao Muzhen was stunned for a moment, his expression becoming serious: "Are you sure?"
"Of course I'm sure. It would be better for you to ask Huo Yunting in person about this matter."
"This matter is very important to me. Let's leave it at that for today. We'll make an appointment next time."
"good."
After leaving the hotel, Xiao Muzhen took a taxi directly to the Huo family. She wanted to know immediately whether she and Huo Yunting were really divorced.
Knowing that Xiao Muzhen was coming to see him, Huo Yunting immediately asked Ke Ning to postpone the meeting.
"Zhenzhen, why did you come to see me suddenly?"
Looking at the gentle smile on Huo Yunting's face, Xiao Muzhen was silent for a few seconds, then said in a deep voice: "Huo Yunting, I heard that we were divorced before I was kidnapped three years ago. Is this true?"
The smile on Huo Yunting's face froze, and he frowned and asked, "Who told you?"
"Are we really divorced?"
If this is true, then what is her relationship with Huo Yunting now? !
In order to get back together with her, he actually made up such a lie!
"No, listen to my explanation. Although we were divorced before you were kidnapped, after we thought you were burned to death... I used my connections to arrange for us to remarry."
Xiao Muzhen's eyes were filled with shock and disbelief. She looked at Huo Yunting as if he were a madman and unconsciously took a few steps back.
"Are you crazy?"
He actually remarried someone who was dead in his eyes?!
Sensing Xiao Muzhen's resistance, a hint of pain flashed in Huo Yunting's eyes.
"Zhenzhen, I couldn't accept losing you at the time, so I did this. I'm sorry..."
