113 Counter Threat
Although she said that, Yuan Fei had no intention of putting down the medicine bottle. It was obvious that if He Yu did not record it, the threats she had just made might become true.
He Yu gritted her teeth. “Sure, I’ll record it.”
By the time Yuan Fei returned to the private room of the restaurant, most of the dishes on the dining table had been eaten. Sun Li was picking his teeth with a toothpick. “Have you all finished eating? We can leave after eating. We still have something to do in the afternoon.”
He Yu, who was one step behind, also returned. Compared to the gloomy expression she had when she went out, she had returned to normal. “Director, didn’t I say that I would treat you to this meal? Why did you get someone to foot the bill in advance?”
Ji Jun glanced at her without batting an eyelid. A glint flashed across his eyes before he quickly fell silent.
Upon hearing her words, Sun Li waved his hand indifferently. “I don’t lack this bit of money. How can I let you pay for a meal with my junior brother?”
It was mainly because he would be soft-hearted. After eating his meal, wouldn’t he be much more self-righteous when he snatched her away later? Sun Li’s little schemes were going very well.
“It seems like I can’t snatch your favor and limelight anymore. I’ll be your host next time. Don’t snatch it from me then.” He Yu was quite good at reading others if Ji Jun wasn’t involved.
The group walked out of the restaurant. He Yu secretly gave Yuan Fei a look. Yuan Fei tightened her grip on Yu Han’s arm, causing Yu Han to be puzzled. “What’s wrong? I saw that you didn’t look very good when you came out of the washroom.”
Yuan Fei hurriedly rubbed her eyes and yawned. “I was too excited last night, so I didn’t sleep well. I’m used to taking lunch breaks, so I’m a little sleepy at this hour.”
Yu Han did not doubt her. “Your words make me want to sleep.” With Yuan Fei leading her, she yawned too.
“It’s fine. Let’s talk. We’ll be fine after this.” Yuan Fei patted her face. “By the way, do you know that something happened to the third female lead in Director Sun’s movie?”
Yu Han thought for a moment. “Is it the female artiste who was exposed to have an affair with the Best Actor last night?”
“Yes, the netizens are scolding her very badly now. Director Sun is quite unlucky. He even gets into such a situation when filming is about to start.” Yuan Fei observed Yu Han’s expression as she spoke.
Yu Han frowned and a trace of disdain flashed across her eyes. “She’s young and has a bright future. Why does she have to be a mistress?” In the end, both her reputation and career were ruined.
“Who knows what she’s thinking?” Yuan Fei pretended to say unintentionally. “Director Sun must be changing her out. I wonder if he’s decided on a candidate.”
Yu Han did not mind. “I didn’t hear him mention it at the dining table just now. It doesn’t look like he’s troubled. Even if it hasn’t been confirmed, it should be soon.” After all, as long as a director of Sun Li’s level spread the word, many actors would rush to work with him.
Yuan Fei pursed her lips. It sounded like Yu Han really did not know about this. Or perhaps she knew and did not tell her?
At this moment, Yu Han realized something. She turned her head and saw Yuan Fei avoiding her gaze. She lowered her head and tidied her bangs.
Yu Han paused and did not say anything. If Yuan Fei really wanted to try that role, even if she did not dare to look for Director Sun directly, she could ask Old Bai and ask him to find out. Why did she have to ask her about so many things?
Coincidentally, Sun Li and Bai Chao were also talking about this.
“No, I’ve just started filming and you’re already trying to steal my actresses. You even want my first female lead and second female lead. How am I going to film my future scenes?” Bai Chao didn’t want to agree.
“I don’t have many scenes as the third female lead, but you can film your scenes first. My scenes will be slightly later.” Sun Li had already paid for the meal, so he naturally didn’t want to return empty-handed. Moreover, he had just seen it. Yu Han and Yuan Fei’s acting skills and appearance were quite suitable. They looked like they would not cause trouble halfway.
Therefore, it would be a pity not to borrow them.
In the end, Bai Chao could not resist his senior brother’s thick skin. Under Sun Li’s coaxing and pestering, he still agreed.
Coincidentally, there was a cafe by the roadside. Yuan Fei’s eyes lit up. “I have to buy a cup of coffee to wake myself up. I’ll bring one for all of you too.”
There were more than 10 people in total. A cup of coffee for each of them would cost hundreds of yuan. Yu Han thought that Yuan Fei probably wanted to show her face in front of Director Sun, so she did not steal her limelight.
