Chapter 260: The 9,999 Roses for Miss Li
“Director Li is known to be very strict and especially harsh to the newbies. Why have you never told Li Beinian off?”
Li Quan furrowed his brows. “I scold whoever makes a mistake. I don’t care what their background is. Once they’re at the filming location, I expect them to do their very best. This is the most basic expectation of an actor.”
“Oh…” The reporter turned to look at Li Beinian. “I heard that you often send Miss Li Beinian home late at night…”
“Nonsense!” Li Quan hollered. “Where are you from, there’s so much falsity in this!”
Seeing Li Quan’s reaction, the other reporters were getting excited too.
The photographers very quickly took their spots and began bombarding him with questions:
“Director Li, are you getting frustrated from your shame?”
“Director Li, this news is all over Weibo, is this true?”
“Miss Li Beinian, as one of the main parties involved, don’t you have anything to say?”
“Miss Li, I heard that you’re fetched home in a luxury car every day. Are you together with Director Li while still keeping in contact with your financial backer?”
He was speechless.
Li Beinian was surrounded all of a sudden. Qin Liangzhi reached out and covered Li Beinian’s faces from the camera while yelling at the reporters, “What are you doing!”
“Don’t talk rot! Sister Nian isn’t such a person!” Cheng Su pouted and shielded Li Beinian from the cameras as well. “Stop snapping!”
“Go away, no one touches her!” Bai Yuan looked stern and serious as he made his statement.
Upon looking at the situation, the reporters quietened significantly.
Li Beinian looked at the hoard of reporters coldly.
She stood up and glared at Li Xueqing. “This is slander and gossip-mongering. I will get to the bottom of this.”
With that, she turned to the reporters before her. “Cheng Su.”
“Sister Nian.”
“Take a photograph of every reporter here.”
The reporters were enraged when they heard that. “What right have you to do that?”
“You’re invading my privacy!”
“You’re not in the position to do this!”
Cheng Su whipped out her cell phone and faced it towards them.
But a hand came out of nowhere and knocked her cell phone to the ground.
Cheng Su was shocked. She was about to bend over to look for it when someone pushed her.
“Ah!” Cheng Su screamed as Bai Yuan reflexively caught hold of her.
Cheng Su looked at Bai Yuan.
Bai Yuan looked awful as he pulled Cheng Su to his back and yelled at the reporters, “Are you done yet!”
It was extremely loud.
“Do you know who she is,” Bai Yuan clenched his jaw. “She’s but our Chie—”
“Bai Yuan!” Li Beinian cut him off. “Don’t talk rot!”
Bai Yuan glared at the reporters in anger.
Li Xueqing was more than happy to witness this mess of a scene!
This darned bodyguard didn’t make things easy for her back at Shengnan Island!
And that assistant of hers… she was just as detestable as Li Beinian herself!
The reporters were agitated again.
“Mister, who are you to Li Beinian?”
“What did you mean by the words you said just now?”
“It’s rumored that Li Beinian lives on Misty Street and isn’t well-to-do. How do you know her?”
They threw questions one after another.
Right then, a commotion could be heard from the back.
The crowd turned around and saw people streaming in with huge bouquets of red roses.
“Damn, that’s a huge one!”
“There’s more at the back!”
“10 now, 11, 12, 13…”
The one leading the group said, “Delivering the 9,999 roses for Miss Li. Miss Li, please sign upon receipt!”
With that, a number of people turned towards Li Beinian.
But somebody suddenly yelled, “It must be for Li Xueqing!”
The next moment, everybody turned to Li Xueqing instead.
Some of the media personnel were already turning their attention to Li Xueqing and the flowers.
