Chapter 59: Revealed
Fang Xin, who was resting at home, heard the doorbell and hurried to see what was happening. Xu Shi'an was standing at the door with a cold expression.
The first thing he said when he opened the door was, "Did you forget my password?"
"......" Xu Shi'an just didn't want to come in without saying hello every time, which would make people feel abrupt.
Xu Shian felt a little satisfied when he was fed snacks again. It was worth his efforts in planning for Fang Xin during this period.
"How are things going?"
Fang Xin raised his eyebrows complacently, looking very proud, "It looks good at the moment, just waiting for good news."
Xu Shi'an nodded. Fang Xin did not tell him the plan last time, so he figured it out on his own. Now seeing Fang Xin's behavior, it seems almost certain.
Although the matter was almost resolved, Xu Shi'an felt unhappy again when he thought of the picture Fang Xin posted on Weibo a few days ago.
"What's going on between you and that makeup artist?"
The question was asked so suddenly that Fang Xin didn't even know who he was talking about, and memories flashed through his mind quickly.
Xu Shian saw that he must have almost forgotten, so he reminded him, "I have seen all the photos on Weibo."
Fang Xin's eyes flashed with confusion, "Ah? You mean Li Ang, what is there between him and me?"
Xu Shi'an remained silent. He felt that he was very strange. Why was there any point in asking about such a thing? Yet, he seemed to care a lot about it.
"I'm asking you, not me."
"That's right, we have nothing." Fang Xin looked innocent, but actually looked very stupid.
After hearing the satisfactory answer, Xu Shi'an stood up, glanced at Fang Xin's dumbfounded face, curled his lips and went back.
Early summer is slowly approaching and the temperature is gradually warming up, but the scenes were filmed in autumn and the clothes were changed into light shirts to suit the season.
In keeping with the plot, they wore long-sleeved shirts.
Chen Mi's roles became more and more, and the screenwriter became very angry. She tried to tolerate Chen Mi but to no avail, so she sued the two largest investors.
Xu Shian and Shen Yaojie felt that it was almost time to close the net when they received the news. Now Chen Mi's arrogance in the crew was already known to everyone. The next step was to find evidence and release the evidence.
Chen Mi no longer needs to go through the director or scriptwriter before adding scenes. He can directly inform the actors acting opposite him and tell them how to act this part.
At first many actors refused to listen, but when they saw that the director and screenwriter didn't say anything, they gradually followed Chen Mi's advice.
During the performance that day, Xu Shian and Shen Yaojie both came to the set. They sat in front of the monitor and looked at the original script given to them by the screenwriter. Then Wang Shide, who was late, saw Xu Shian and his eyes lit up.
"Mr. Xu! Mr. Xu, you really made me look for you so hard. Why are you here today?" His flattering face was disgusting.
Xu Shi'an was too lazy to raise his eyes, "Visiting the set."
Seeing Shen Yaojie was also there, Wang Shide greeted him enthusiastically. Shen Yaojie was easy to talk to and looked gentle and polite, much better than the thousand-year-old ice block next to him.
If Shen Yaojie didn't have a jewelry business under his name, he would definitely choose to cooperate with Shen Yaojie.
Thinking of this, he approached Xu Shi'an again to understand the contract. Xu Shi'an slammed the script on the small table beside him, which scared Wang Shide half to death. He didn't dare to breathe for a long time.
The show begins.
Ke Yun still works in the restaurant. Ever since he and Si Jin parted ways on bad terms last time, he has not told Si Jin that he is no longer studying in that school.
He thought that in the end there would be nothing more to do between the two of them and they would eventually break up.
Si Jin asked around about Ke Yun's whereabouts, but everyone said they didn't know, had never seen him, and had never heard of him. It was as if this person had disappeared out of thin air.
Since Qi Xiaoyu bullied Ke Yun until he dropped out of school, he relied on his parents' connections to find Si Jin, who was far away from home. He worked very hard to get into the same school as Si Jin.
He wanted to be with Si Jin all the time. As long as Ke Yun was not around, he could always be with Si Jin as a friend.
After meeting Ke Yun again, Si Jin was like crazy. He didn't go to class or go home. He asked around the school for news about Ke Yun and even asked the Office of Education to check if there was any information about Ke Yun.
He really couldn't stand Si Jin caring so much about Ke Yun, "Si Jin! Are you crazy?! Ke Yun is not here at all! You don't go to class or go home every day, look at you now!"
Si Jin turned a deaf ear to him, pushed Qi Xiaoyu away and was about to leave. Qi Xiaoyu rushed over and hugged him tightly, "Don't look for him, you won't find him..."
As if hearing something unforgivable, Si Jin pushed Qi Xiaoyu against the wall and stared at him fiercely, "Don't bother me. You won't know whether you can find it until you find it. I don't need you to order me around in the name of doing it for your own good."
The voice was not loud, but it was shocking. His eyes were bloodshot and fatigue crept onto his handsome brows.
Qi Xiaoyu didn't let him go, "Don't go, I beg you not to go, if he can do it, I can do it too, please look at me, am I good enough..."
Si Jin said almost the cruelest words, which hurt Qi Xiaoyu completely, "You are different."
"I like Ke Yun, I like her very much."
A voice came from outside the corridor, "Please make way, please make way..."
The voice was as small as a mosquito, but Si Jin heard it with his sharp ears. He rushed out and saw the thin figure, and he walked forward uncontrollably.
"Ke Yun."
As he walked forward, he kept saying Ke Yun's name and took her hand. When he turned around, he saw Ke Yun's face. His confused eyes reminded him of how he looked when they first met.
But when he looked closely, it wasn't Ke Yun. He let go of her hand and apologized, "Sorry, I recognized the wrong person."
This scene ended very quickly. Xu Shi'an's eyes were cold and he asked, "Why do I see more supporting roles than the main characters?"
Shen Yaojie smiled tenderly, "I thought I had a good eye for investment this time, but I didn't expect that our artists would have so few roles."
One was straightforward, the other was beating around the bush, and Wang Shide next to him broke out in a cold sweat.
"That..."
Chen Mi was sharp-eyed and only saw Wang Shide sitting outside the surveillance camera. He ran over happily and saw Xu Shian and Shen Yaojie sitting on the other side, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Although I had seen these two proud sons of heaven from a distance before, seeing them up close now gave me a different feeling.
He smiled sweetly and greeted them, "Hello, Mr. Xu, Mr. Shen, why are you both here to visit us today?"
Chen Mi, who thought she was sweet, did not get a response. Even Wang Shide was embarrassed for two seconds. After being glared at by Wang Shide, Chen Mi was unwilling and could only squat close to Wang Shide, looking at Wang Shide like a puppy for comfort.
Not long after, Lu Ziyan and Fang Xin also came over to greet their boss.
"Hello, Mr. Xu. Hello, Mr. Shen." They said in unison and looked like a real couple. It's a pity that we haven't seen them in the same frame yet.
Xu Shi'an, who had seen the two of them in the same frame many times, had an indifferent expression and no warmth on his body. He responded with a deep voice.
The screenwriter came in a hurry. She first glanced at the expressions of the two investors, and then looked at the foolish Chen Mi. She was smiling in her heart but her face showed no emotion.
"I'm the screenwriter of this play. Do you have any questions?"
Shen Yaojie was the first to speak up for his artists, "As I recall, our artists are the protagonists."
The screenwriters agreed repeatedly, and Shen Yaojie's face remained gentle. "Then why do I feel that the supporting roles have more scenes than the main characters in the script I saw? Did you change the leading role without my knowledge?"
The screenwriter shook his head vigorously, "No, it's because..."
After saying this, she looked at Wang Shide hesitantly, and Wang Shide glared at her and warned her not to talk nonsense.
"Speak." Xu Shi'an, who was always very frugal with words, began to put pressure on him. "If you keep it secret, I will replace you."
If others had a chance to breathe when Shen Yaojie spoke, then when Xu Shian opened his mouth the whole place would be silent and no one would dare to speak out.
The screenwriter seemed to have made up her mind, but in fact, she couldn't wait. She said loudly and angrily, "It's all Chen Mi. He said he is Mr. Wang's man. If we don't add more scenes according to his wishes, Mr. Wang will withdraw his investment! I have discussed it with him again and again, but he keeps threatening Mr. Wang. We can't do anything to him. Now everyone is here. Even if I may lose this position after saying it, I still have to say it for the sake of this movie!"
The screenwriter mustered up the courage to say all these words at once. Xu Shi'an's expression became more and more gloomy as he listened, and Shen Yaojie's usually gentle face was also covered with a thin layer of frost.
"It turns out that Mr. Wang is the only investor in this movie."
Shen Yaojie said something in a weird tone, and Wang Shide said with a trembling face, "Of course not, you and Mr. Xu are both big investors in this movie..."
"What a powerful force! Mr. Wang doesn't want anything anymore."
There was anger in Xu Shi'an's eyes, and his voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for people to hear, but it was chilling.
Wang Shide apologized repeatedly and his speech became unclear. Chen Mi next to him was so stunned that she collapsed on the ground.
"Then what do you say we should do?"
Wang Shide swallowed his saliva and thought that although his investment was second only to theirs, he could have withdrawn his investment if he wanted to in the past.
His company is already facing a crisis, and withdrawing investment in this drama is equivalent to having no guaranteed money, which has angered Xu Shi'an, the only person who can save his company now.
He was so angry that he kicked Chen Mi, "You bastard! How dare you rely on my power to tamper with the script! I will beat you to death!"
Xu Shi'an watched coldly. Shen Yaojie was a good guy to the end. Just as he was about to open his mouth to stop him, Fang Xin, who was watching the show on the side, hurried to stop him.
"Boss Wang, it's not a good idea to hit someone here. Besides, even though Chen Mi changed the script, how could he dare to do it without your consent?
Wang Shide stopped his violence when he heard the sweet voice like a lark. When he saw Fang Xin standing aside like a banished immortal, his anger subsided a little.
His infatuated eyes stimulated the two people present, and Lu Ziyan took the lead to stand in front of Fang Xin.
Chen Mi's heart was broken when he saw Lu Ziyan's action. He looked at Lu Ziyan's action of protecting Fang Xin in disbelief and wanted to stand up and question him.
Lu Ziyan ignored Chen Mi's look and said, "President Wang getting angry won't solve the problem."
Xu Shi'an stood up. His height was enough to look down on everyone present. His king-like attitude made the little girl scream secretly, but the chill around his body could drive people away.
"Wang Shide, let's end the cooperation now."
His grim gaze made Wang Shide even more panicked, "Mr. Xu, you can't do this. You promised me!"
Xu Shi'an raised his eyebrows and stared at Wang Shide's ugly fat face with a half-smile, "Promise what?"
Wang Shide was drunk and his head was clouded. "You said you would cooperate with me to clarify the matter of Fang Xin's photo! I also told you that it was Chen Mi who informed you. You can't go back on your word!"
Having said that, Fang Xin's eyes were like the blade of a knife, scraping sharply at Wang Shide.
"That is to say, you took the photo and you allowed Chen Mi to release it, right?"
