Chapter 241 If the Meng family alone is not enough, what about adding my brother-in-law Shen Que?
As soon as the inner voice came out, Meng Tinglan, who was still nervous a second ago, suddenly trembled.
He was so excited that he wanted to turn around to see if it was Meng Zhiyi, but he didn't dare to show it too obviously, so he pretended to move the stool and took a quick sideways glance.
When he saw a waitress standing behind him, Meng Tinglan finally felt relieved.
He couldn't help but smile, and felt even happier in his heart.
I knew that my little sister was still worried about me.
For some reason, when he knew Meng Zhiyi was there, he suddenly relaxed a lot. He picked up the cup of water that he had not dared to touch since he came in and took a sip.
I thought, if there was really something wrong with the water, my little sister wouldn't just stand by and watch him die, right?
His throat was already dry and almost smoking, but he drank the whole cup in one breath.
Director Zhou and Lian Mubai came in and sat down opposite them. When Meng Tinglan drank a glass of water, he smiled and said, "Xiao Meng, are you nervous?"
"Don't be nervous. This gentleman is the investor of the new movie and would like to take part in the casting."
Director Zhou finished speaking, and then turned to Lian Mubai, obviously lowering his posture, and said: "Boss Bai, this is the Xiao Meng I mentioned to you. Don't look at his young age, his acting skills are good."
Meng Tinglan listened to what Director Zhou said and shifted his gaze to Lian Mubai.
When he saw that the other person had a buzz cut and his face was wrapped in two places with gauze, and even his neck and other exposed parts were wrapped in gauze, his brows wrinkled slightly.
He wondered if this person had some shameful illness.
Lian Mubai was also looking at Meng Tinglan. Looking at this face that was 70% similar to Meng Zhiyi, he couldn't help but think of the face that made him hate it so much.
Recalling that he had been bombed twice in a row, if he had not always kept things in reserve and instructed his other subordinates to patrol the high seas before boarding the cruise ship, he would not know how long he would have to drift on the sea.
Thinking of this, Lian Mubai's hatred for Meng Zhiyi deepened.
"The male lead has been decided, but what about the female lead?" Lian Mubai did not make any comments on Meng Tinglan, but asked slowly.
Speaking of the heroine, Director Zhou's mind immediately popped up the face of Meng Zhiyi.
It has to be said that Meng Zhiyi and Meng Tinglan are twins. They look 70% similar, to the point where they can hardly be told apart if they put a little more effort into their makeup.
Director Zhou has a messy private life and does not care about men or women.
When I saw Meng Zhiyi, a bold idea came to my mind.
If we can get hold of this pair of dragon and phoenix twins, wouldn't it be...
Thinking of this, he immediately looked at Meng Tinglan with a smile and said, "Xiao Meng, I met your sister the other day. She looks very good. Why don't you do some ideological work and let her try it too?"
"You are siblings, and if you work together, you can take care of each other, right? And you don't have to worry about the pay, it will definitely be higher than the market price."
When Director Zhou said this, he didn't even try to hide the evil thoughts in his eyes.
Meng Tinglan originally thought that the other party only had his eyes on him, and that he only needed to deal with him and find an opportunity to kill him.
But after hearing these words, he realized that Director Zhou had set his sights on Meng Zhiyi, and his face suddenly darkened.
"Director Zhou might be disappointed. His family can afford to support her, so they don't want her to come out and make money."
As soon as Meng Tinglan said this, the smile on Director Zhou's face immediately disappeared, and Lian Mubai, who was sitting next to him, also became obviously unhappy.
Xiao Fang looked at Meng Tinglan with some displeasure and said, "Xiao Meng, it's a blessing to be noticed by Director Zhou. Do you know how many people in the industry are trying their best to star in Director Zhou's movies?"
"It seems that you also want it. Why don't you come and dress up as a woman, and I will humble myself and play with you." Meng Tinglan said, looking at Xiao Fang with a sneer.
"What do you mean!" Xiao Fang shouted angrily.
"Xiao Fang, please stop talking!" Upon seeing this, the agent Sun Yong glared at Xiao Fang, then quickly pulled Meng Tinglan's clothes under the table, and then smiled and said, "Director Zhou, don't mind it. Xiao Meng is just young, young..."
But Meng Tinglan didn't appreciate it. If it was just a matter in the entertainment industry, he would know when to be friendly and when to be tough.
But now that his family is involved, he won't allow it even if it means ending his acting career.
"Director Zhou doesn't need to worry about my little sister anymore. She has no shortage of money."
As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Zhiyi, who was standing behind him, immediately protested in his heart.
[Damn, who said I don’t lack money? ]
【I’m missing! 】
Meng Tinglan pursed his lips, then said, "Even if she is short of money, I, as her brother, will give her money."
[Is that so... then you still have some conscience. ]
[Humph, since you are so aware, I will let you suffer less. When Director Zhou arrests you for a few days, I will go and rescue you.]
"..." Meng Tinglan felt like crying but had no tears.
Now that he has said so much, can't we let him avoid this suffering?
In the private room, after Meng Tinglan finished speaking, the atmosphere became strange.
Director Zhou had an unpleasant expression on his face, and when he stared at Meng Tinglan, he was too lazy to even pretend.
"So, you're going to refuse my toast and drink the wine as punishment?" Director Zhou's face turned cold, and his tone was also somewhat warning.
Although Meng Tinglan is young, as the young master of the Meng family in the capital, in addition to having a life of luxury since childhood, he has also seen a lot of the world with his family.
Even though he usually looks stupid, he is not a useless person who can't do anything when it comes to a critical moment.
Before coming here, he also secretly brought a dozen bodyguards to protect him nearby.
So when facing Director Zhou's threat, Meng Tinglan was not afraid at all. Instead, he sneered and said, "As for toasts, it depends on whether you are in a good mood. As for fines, that's only when I give them to others."
Meng Zhiyi behind him raised an eyebrow, surprised that Meng Tinglan had such a side to him.
She thought that the entire Meng family was just filled with such a fool.
"Heh." Lian Mubai, who had been silent, suddenly chuckled and said, "What did I say? Don't underestimate anyone who comes from a wealthy family. Even though the family has spent so much money to train them, they are not all trash."
Director Zhou's facial muscles twitched, and he was filled with anger at being humiliated by Meng Tinglan.
He slammed the table and said in a harsh voice, "Meng Tinglan, don't think you can put on airs in front of us just because we give you some face."
"Boss Bai is here, so what can your Meng family do?"
After hearing this, Meng Tinglan understood.
It turns out that the person behind Director Zhou is this strange man who looks like a mummy.
However...
He said in a nonchalant manner: "Then you don't know that the hotel we are staying in is owned by the Shen family. If the Meng family alone is not enough, how about adding my brother-in-law Shen Que?"
