Chapter 389: Argument
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
He Meng had to earn money and promote the studio’s reputation, but she was still very concerned about Yu Han’s relationship status.
Hence, after agreeing to invest in the production team of “Midsummer’s Time” in the name of the studio, He Meng looked at Yu Han suspiciously. “You seem to have a much closer relationship with Best Actor Ji than I imagined?”
“Didn’t 1 say before? Our families are considered family friends. His mother and my mother used to be very good sisters.” Yu Han couldn’t say why her relationship with Ji Jun had become like this, so she could only use the old trick to deal with He Meng.
However, He Meng was not so easy to fool. “Since you’ve known him since you were young, why did you act like you weren’t very familiar with Ji Jun previously?”
“Didn’t you say that? Don’t be too close to him, lest there are any bad rumors.” Yu Han refuted He Meng with what she had said before. “So of course I have to avoid arousing suspicion.”
He Meng narrowed her eyes. “You came to me to avoid arousing suspicion?”
Yu Han suddenly sat up straight. “Sister Meng, although our interests are the same overall, the relationship between managers and artists is actually a game, right?”
He Meng did not expect her to suddenly bring up this topic. She frowned and thought for a moment. She first affirmed her words. “Your description is indeed quite appropriate.” Then, she looked up at Yu Han with a sharp gaze. “So you’re saying that you often do all kinds of things behind my back because you’re playing a game with me? Or are you trying to go against my daily arrangements?”
Yu Han relaxed her body in the next second and slumped onto the sofa. She shook her head and said, “No. After all, our cooperation has been quite pleasant so far. But you know, people will occasionally have a little rebellious mentality.”
He Meng interrupted, “This is similar to me not letting you eat high-calorie food, but you always eat it secretly, right?”
Yu Han choked and could not refute for a moment. After all, although this analogy was a little strange, the nature seemed to be the same.
As Yu Han and He Meng exchanged blows, Lang Yu and Wu Cheng, who were watching, tactfully hid in a corner. They even wished that someone could give them a pair of earplugs to block their ears so that they could not hear anything.
After all, although Yu Han and He Meng looked very calm as if they were gossiping, Wu Cheng and Lang Yu felt that there were little knives flying between the two of them. It sounded quite scary.
Hence, the two of them obediently shrank to the side. They did not dare to get involved at all, nor did they want to be swept into the vortex.
“Alright, I finally know your attitude.” He Meng sighed. Actually, she had vaguely realized this problem previously. Although Yu Han looked especially easy to talk to, she was actually a very self-centered person.
If she was unwilling to do something, she was afraid that she would not be able to convince her no matter what she said. Just as Yu Han had said, the main premise of the two of them getting along well so far was that their interests were the same.
She also gave Yu Han a lot of freedom. Although this freedom was not given by her but fought for by Yu Han with her ability and background, how should she put it? It was just like how she had emphasized to Yu Han on many occasions that she hoped Yu Han would not make decisions on her own and trust her manager more.
However, to a certain extent, perhaps in Yu Han’s eyes, He Meng’s actions were actually invading her personal domain.
It was rare for He Meng to reflect. Could it be that she was really too domineering? However, compared to the other managers in the industry who had full control over artists, He Meng felt that she was already a very relaxed manager.
Hence, was the problem with her, a manager with a strong desire to control, or with Yu Han, an artist with a very strong personality?
He Meng couldn’t come to a conclusion for the time being. She could only put it aside and return to the most realistic problem.
“So nothing really happened between you and Ji Jun?”
If it was in the past, Yu Han would definitely retort when she heard this question. “Look at Best Actor Ji, he’s an otherworldly person. Would he like me?”
However, Yu Han could not bring herself to say this after she suspected that Ji Jun might really like her. Hence, she felt a little guilty when she met He Meng’s appraising gaze. She did not know how to explain it clearly, so she chose an evasive answer..
