234 Lowering One’s Head

Bai Xiaojiu stroked his chin and stood at the side, watching the commotion.

He then looked at Yun Wei.

The young lady was so angry that her face flushed up. And when she spoke, she revealed a row of strong white teeth. It seemed that her biting force was indeed very strong.

At the thought of how the young lady had bitten him in order to stop him back then, he smiled. He thought to himself that this man would have to suffer very soon.

However, unexpectedly, the young lady’s countenance changed a little and she turned to leave in the end. “I can’t be bothered to talk to you.”

Bai Xiaojiu was stunned for a moment, feeling perplexed over why she hadn’t bitten the man.

In his hesitation, he suddenly noticed a gaze looking over.

Bai Xiaojiu immediately turned and saw that Shen Ruojing was sizing him up.

This female “doctor” could be said to be the prettiest among everyone present. However, for some reason, Bai Xiaojiu kept having the feeling that she looked very familiar.

Little did he know that this familiarity came from the big boss that even his grandfather respected!

Shen Ruojing’s peach blossom eyes were the exact same as her father’s! It was because she only had a 30% resemblance to her mother but a 70% resemblance to her father!

Therefore, Bai Xiaojiu didn’t dare to treat her lightly from the beginning.

When Shen Ruojing was surveying Bai Xiaojiu, the latter subconsciously released an amicable signal.

It could be said that Shen Ruojing might have received the signal, so her sharp peach blossom eyes gradually relaxed.

Bai Xiaojiu heaved a sigh of relief for some reason.

At this moment, Yun Wei walked up to him and said, “Let me bring you to take a look around elsewhere.”

Although Yun Wei wasn’t sure whether Bai Xiaojiu was from the Bai Family, she always treated people she considered friends well.

Bai Xiaojiu then nodded.

As for Qian Nanyin, he had spoken a lot, but Yun Wei ignored him, making him feel aggrieved as if he had punched into cotton. The fact that Yun Wei was cold toward him but spoke gently to another man made him furious.

When Wen Yuyi saw this, a hint of jealousy flashed across her eyes.

Qian Nanyin had never cared about Yun Wei before. So wasn’t the reason why he was so angry today just because Yun Wei had found a man? He was obviously jealous!

Wen Yuyi had initially planned on giving up on Qian Nanyin and going for Chu Cichen or the Bai Family’s young master. However, at this moment, an unfathomable urge for winning rose in her.

Wen Yuyi’s gaze flickered and she immediately said, “I’ll try to talk to her.”

After saying that, Wen Yuyi walked up to Yun Wei and held onto her, sighing quietly. “Little Wei, don’t be angry. If there’s any problem, just talk it out with Brother Nanyin…”

Yun Wei frowned. “I have nothing to say to him.”

She then swung her arm, wanting to break free from Wen Yuyi’s grasp.

However, at the next moment, Wen Yuyi took two steps back abruptly as if she had been pushed away by a strong force. She then stumbled and fell to the ground. She might have hurt her arm in this process, so she held onto her right hand and let out a gasp in pain.

Yun Wei. “??”

She looked down at her hand, feeling startled. People who didn’t know any better would think that she was Popeye the Sailor Man!

Wasn’t this too much of an exaggeration?

Just as Yun Wei was in her thoughts, Qian Nanyin rushed over and helped Wen Yuyi. He then bellowed furiously, “Yun Wei, what are you doing?!”

At this moment, Wen Yuyi spoke up like a phony, “Brother Nanyin, don’t say that. It’s normal for Little Wei to feel a little upset. My mother is taking care of the banquet preparation at home, and Aunt and Madam Yun are both very unhappy about this as is. Now, you’re even accompanying me to the filming set, so it’s understandable for Little Wei to feel unhappy…”

“Even so, she can’t just go and hit others!” After Qian Nanyin said this angrily, he looked up and stared at Yun Wei. “Apologize to Yuyi right this instant!”

“…”

Yun Wei looked at Wen Yuyi.

She was too familiar with such tricks.

Since young, the great phony Wen Yuyi had used such tricks very frequently, always getting away with them.

In the beginning, Yu Wei’s relationship with Qian Nanyin wasn’t as bad as it was now.

The two of them attended the same high school. When the two families arranged for them to be engaged, her father, Yun Zhengyang, had assessed Qian Nanyin before agreeing to it. Back then, Qian Nanyin was a charming young man.

After the two of them got engaged, there was a period in which Yun Wei would feel shy when seeing him. His face would also flush when he saw her.

However, for whatever reason, Wen Yuyi would use the excuse of telling him things about Yun Wei to get increasingly closer to him.

Although Yun Wei’s heart didn’t love or hold admiration for Qian Nanyin, there had been a time when she had felt that this man was reliable. Back then, she thought that it would be fine to share a life with him.

However, the bit of warmth and fondness toward him gradually turned cold after Wen Yuyi’s repeated tricks.

Yun Wei said with a cold expression, “I didn’t hit her.”

“If you didn’t, did she fall by herself? Yun Wei, you’ve actually learned to lie through your teeth now. You’re simply unreasonable!” Qian Nanyin’s accusation hit Yun Wei.

However, Yun Wei tightened her chin and suddenly sneered. “I won’t apologize for something I didn’t do.”

After saying that, she turned to leave.

Qian Nanyin was furious, but he couldn’t do anything to Yun Wei.

At this moment, the production team’s staff ran over. When they saw Wen Yuyi, they shouted, “Miss Wen, so you’re here. It’s your turn. Teacher Yun Lu has just finished filming the last scene. We need your hand to do the work now.”

The last long shot was also the sublimation point of the entire drama. It was the letter that the female lead had written to be burned for her entire clan.

It was equivalent to a very important plot.

Wen Yuyi’s eyes flickered and she nodded at the staff. “Alright, I’ll go now.”

Then, she looked at Qian Nanyin. “Brother Nanyin, don’t be angry. This is the Yun Family’s production after all, and the entire drama was funded by the Yun Family. Don’t force Little Wei to apologize. It’ll be very embarrassing to do this in her own company. Moreover, the filming will be completed soon. We mustn’t let private matters affect the filming process.”

These words reminded Qian Nanyin.

He then grabbed Wen Yuyi’s wrist and looked at Yun Wei angrily. “I almost forgot that Yuyi came over today to help you guys for free! How dare you treat her like this? If you don’t apologize, Yuyi won’t be the hand substitute today!”

When Yun Wei heard this, her pupils constricted and anger surged in her heart. “Qian Nanyin, did water get into your brain? You’re threatening me with business-related matters?!”

“I don’t care about these things. I just know that you’re in charge of this project. The filming of this television drama was funded by the Yun Family. If Yuyi delays the writing today, can you immediately find someone with good calligraphy skills? How much is the cost of delaying a day’s work in this production team? How much is the venue fee?”

Qian Nanyin seemed to have grabbed onto her weakness. “Apologize to Yuyi immediately now. Otherwise, I’ll take her away. You can then think of a way to deal with your production yourself!”

Wen Yuyi said hypocritically, “Brother Nanyin, don’t say that. The Yun Family is also my mother’s maternal family…”

“Yuyi, don’t say anything. You’re just too honest and gentle, that’s why you’re always being bullied!” Qian Nanyin sneered and looked at Yun Wei again. “I’ll give you three seconds to think about this. Otherwise, we’ll leave!”

It was getting late.

It was too late to get someone from the Calligraphy Association to be the replacement.

And the female lead’s scene was too important. In this day and age, there were too few young people who could write well…

This television drama focused on filming live scenes. The investment was huge, but it had basically been spent. The director didn’t leave much money behind at all. Moreover, this was the first project that Yun Wei was supervising.

If anything were to happen, she wouldn’t be able to raise her head in the Yun Family’s entertainment company in the future.

Hence, Yun Wei clenched her fists tightly, her eyes turning red from anger.

Yun Lu rushed over and said sarcastically, “Sister, the entire production team is waiting for you. Brother Nanyin is in a fit of anger, so just lower your head and take a step back… As the person in charge of the project, you have to be flexible. It’s better not to bring your personal emotions to work… Moreover, the production assistant has prepared a banquet as we are going to be wrapping up everything tonight. Could it be that we won’t be able to attend it?”

Qian Nanyin and Wen Yuyi were the ones who had gone back on their words at the last minute, but Yun Lu pushed all the blame onto her…

All the staff members of the production team turned to look at her too.

The production assistant looked very anxious.

The director was already throwing a fit at the setup, and everyone was waiting for the hand substitute to get into position.

As this drama held the efforts of everyone on the production team, it mustn’t be destroyed at the final step…

Yun Wei then took a few deep breaths before looking at Wen Yuyi.

Shen Ruojing, who had been standing at the side, sneered.

… Wasn’t it just the writing in the regular script*?
