Chapter 430: Rescue
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Unfortunately, Ji Jun’s help at that time did not receive the actress’s gratitude. Instead, he heard the actress’s complaints behind his back. She said that there was a very good opportunity to build a relationship with the investors, but he ruined it and indirectly affected her reputation. How could she contact the other investors and get resources in the future?
At that time, Ji Jun realized that in this industry, benefits were the most important. Many people could sacrifice themselves for resources. Many people even tried their best to get this opportunity to be “bullied”.
After knowing about this, Ji Jun was angry for a while. In the end, he understood one thing. He was a prodigy with a powerful background, so he could be willful. However, there were still many people in the entertainment industry who had to struggle up.
As the saying went, he couldn’t do anything if the sky was going to rain and his mother was going to get married. It was better for him not to meddle in other people’s business in the future.
Hence, when he saw the actress being forced to drink, Ji Jun only frowned and looked away. He pretended not to see it and lowered his head to forward the photo of the puppy that Old Master had sent him today to Yu Han. He also reminded her to rest well.
He scrolled through the chat history and knew that he had been the one sending messages to Yu Han these few days. Previously, Yu Han would reply when she received the photos, but after she entered the busy preparation stage, she rarely replied.
However, Ji Jun still sent her the photos every day as usual.
Initially, he thought that Yu Han would not reply to him as usual, so he put away his cell phone after sending it. Then, he watched the exchange of toasts on the table in boredom. He happened to see that an investor’s hand was not very proper. It kept rubbing against the actress.
Fear flashed across the actress’s face, but she did not dare to resist. Hence, Ji Jun kicked Director Sun Li, who had been eating.
Director Sun Li looked up and immediately understood when he saw his gaze. Hence, he stood up with a glass of wine. “Come, come, come. Bosses, let me raise a glass for everyone.”
Director Sun’s face was still very useful, so everyone stood up and clinked glasses of wine. Ji Jun saw the actress heave a sigh of relief and slip back to her seat when no one was paying attention.
Ji Jun raised his glass and wet his lips slightly. No one dared to ask why the wine in his glass remained at the same level. Everyone sat down again.
The investor just now still shifted his gaze to the actress opposite him, his eyes shining. Seeing this, Director Sun directly called out his name. “CEO Liu, this is the first time you’ve come to the production team. Then I should toast you.” Hence, CEO Liu had no choice but to drink another glass.
Director Sun poured another glass of wine and said to the three to four investors present, “We should have let the actors on our table toast to all the bosses, but because our schedule is rather tight now and we have a morning scene tomorrow, we can’t let them drink too much. Hence, on their behalf, I toast to all the bosses.”
As soon as Director Sun said this, the investors, especially CEO Liu, roughly knew what was going on. Hence, they all agreed and stood up to drink this glass of wine.
Other than giving Director Sun face, it was also because Ji Jun was at the side. Although he looked nonchalant, his gaze was quite scary.
Logically speaking, even if Ji Jun was the Ji Family’s grandson, he would not be so intimidating. However, who asked Ji Jun to have a record of beating up an investor?
They could not do anything to the Ji Family. If they were beaten up, they could only swallow their bitterness because of the Ji Family’s power. In addition, Ji Jun had a lot of shares as an investor in this drama. They still wanted to continue following him to earn money. There was no need to offend him over a small matter and fall out with him.
They had been a little unrestrained just now because they were drunk. Now that Director Sun reminded them and saw Ji Jun’s unhappy expression, they knew that they had violated his taboo. Hence, they instantly sobered up and did not dare to do anything unnecessary.
Director Sun was very satisfied with their tact. Speaking of which, he did not like these foul things either. However, after entering this industry, he could not do many things as he pleased.
Just like Ji Jun, he had also encountered some repaying kindness with ingratitude. Hence, as long as the situation was not overboard, he would usually pretend not to see it to prevent himself from being blamed..
