NOVEL WEB Chapter 125-133
Chapter 125: Keeping the Whole World in the Dark About Loving You (5)
Ji Yi was so focused on her phone that she didn’t notice He Jichen come close. It wasn’t until he put the medical kit on the desk that she raised her head and looked over at “He Yuguang.”
He Jichen stared at Ji Yi’s phone screen. When He Jichen heard her speak, he silently averted his eyes, typed a few words into his phone and handed it to Ji Yi: “Let me change your bandages.”
With that, He Jichen pointed at Ji Yi’s wrist.
Ji Yi understood what he meant, so she hurriedly put her phone down and said “Thank you,” then obediently reached out her tightly bandaged wrist.
He Jichen’s hands were too busy to type, so the two of them didn’t communicate, leaving the room completely silent.
After medicine was applied to the wound and He Jichen bandaged it up again, Ji Yi said, “Thank you.”
Their marriage was fake. Even though they now lived in the same apartment, they had different rooms.
It was late, so Ji Yi thought that after thanking him, “He Yuguang” would leave. She never imagined that he’d sit on the sofa and stare at the black screen of her phone without any indication of leaving.
Ji Yi wanted to ask “Yuguang Ge, is there something else?” but He Yuguang’s line of sight turned back to his phone. He tapped the keyboard for a while then handed the phone to Ji Yi. “When I came in, I saw you on Weibo searching about ‘Three Thousand Lunatics’ and YC?”
Seeing as He Yuguang had seen her phone screen, she showed a little annoyance as she said, “Mm, yeah.”
After hearing her reply, He Jichen started typing on his phone again: “You’re interested in ‘Three Thousand Lunatics’?”
“This story is pretty popular. What’s more, the author is really popular. Right now, it isn’t a bad choice to me,” said Ji Yi.
He Jichen took the phone, tapped on the screen, then stopped again.
If she found out his company shot this TV series and that he was the director, maybe she’d give up on “Three Thousand Lunatics” entirely.
He Jichen was deep in thought for a while, then deleted one character at a time and changed his message to: “Oh, I see.”
Ji Yi didn’t think too much about his behavior. When she saw those three words, she smiled in return.
He Jichen didn’t stay for long. He typed the two words, “Goodnight,” got up and left Ji Yi’s bedroom.
–
Ji Yi’s illness left just as quickly as it came. On the third day, she was completely fine.
He Yuguang must’ve had a lot to do in Sucheng because he flew back to Sucheng that afternoon.
The next day was a Saturday. There were no classes, so Ji Yi went back home.
On Sunday, Ji Yi went out with her mum since it’d been a long time since she went shopping with her. It was three in the afternoon and she was sitting with her mum at a cafe having afternoon tea when she received a call from a stranger.
Recently, Ji Yi had been receiving a lot of harassment calls. She was in no hurry to take the call, so first, she put some non-dairy creamer in her drink. Then she slowly swiped her phone screen and asked, “Hello, Hi, I’m Ji Yi. May I ask who you’re looking for?”
Chapter 126: Keeping the Whole World in the Dark About Loving You (6)
It was quiet over the phone for a few seconds before a particularly gentle and quiet female voice was heard. Through the phone, Ji Yi could sense the thick air of educated elegance as the person said, “Hello, Miss. Ji Yi. I’m Cheng Weiwan.”
Cheng Weiwan… Ji Yi’s mind went blank for a long while as she held the phone. She still thought what she heard was an illusion, so she asked hesitantly, “Cheng Weiwan?”
“Yes, I’m Cheng Weiwan.” On the phone, Cheng Weiwan used the same gentle tone of voice. After giving Ji Yi confirmation of her identity, she went straight to the point, “I’m sorry, Miss Ji Yi, to suddenly disturb you like this. The situation is this: two days ago, a friend of mine here recommended you. I saw your previous work, and I think that your personality is a good match for our second female character on “Three Thousand Lunatics”. As the screenwriter, I have some power in casting, so I want to ask if you’re interested in playing the second female character? If you are, let’s set up an appointment, and I’ll arrange for the cast to talk with you in person. Would that be alright?”
Cheng Weiwan’s speaking speed completely wasn’t what Ji Yi imagined it would be—she didn’t speak fast or slow. Just two days ago, Ji Yi had been thinking about this very TV show, and now, all of a sudden, the opportunity was right in front of her. Ji Yi’s dreams came true so abruptly that she didn’t have time to reflect on it. Though Cheng Weiwan had finished speaking, Ji Yi still hadn’t replied.
Cheng Weiwan waited for quite some time before she spoke again, “Miss Ji Yi, are you still there?”
Ji Yi suddenly snapped out of it and replied, “Yes! Yes, I’m here.”
After a pause, Ji Yi hurriedly said, “I heard what you just said, and I’m delighted to receive your interest. My schedule is relatively clear in the near future, so once you’ve made the arrangements on your side, you can contact me at any time.”
“Great. I’ll be contacting you shortly. Goodbye for now.”
Ji Yi waited for Cheng Weiwan to hang up the phone before she slowly dropped her phone.
She didn’t reply to her mother’s question “Who called?” but instead, she picked up her coffee and took a big gulp. The bitterness coursed down her throat and into her stomach. That was when she knew everything that happened wasn’t a dream but reality!
Cheng Weiwan, the author of “Three Thousand Lunatics”, personally contacted me to invite me to an audition!
Which goes to say, she really did have her eyes set on me, so my chances of getting the role as the supporting actress are pretty good!
After three years of silence, she already lost her popularity as an actress long ago, so even though she wouldn’t be the leading actress, this opportunity was incredibly surprising!
Cheng Weiwan’s call kept Ji Yi in a pleasant mood all the way home. After she finished dinner, she took a shower and laid in bed.
She wasn’t really sleepy, so she hugged her covers and tossed around in bed thinking about Cheng Weiwan’s call. As she thought about it, Ji Yi became even more awake. Eventually, she just got out of bed, put on a thick jacket, walked over to the balcony, and stared out at the night view.
She stared and stared. She was unsure why, but the thought of Cheng Weiwan’s words crossed her mind: “Two days ago, a friend of mine here recommended you.”
She spent her entire afternoon and evening feeling pleasantly surprised, but she’d forgotten such an important piece of information.
A friend recommended me to Cheng Weiwan; that friend was…
Chapter 127: Keeping the Whole World in the Dark About Loving You (7)
Just for an instant, the three words “He Yuguang” crossed her mind.
In this world, aside from Yuguang Ge who asked if she was interested in “Three Thousand Lunatics” just two days ago when they were together, there wasn’t anybody else who knew about her interest.
And his younger brother, He Jichen, was now someone in the entertainment industry, so it was normal for him to have contacts in the field.
So it was Yuguang Ge. It was Yuguang Ge helped me…
As Ji Yi thought about this, she couldn’t help but go back to her nightstand. She grabbed her phone, found He Yuguang’s number, then sent him a text: “Yuguang Ge, are you asleep?”
–
After reading the script for “Three Thousand Lunatics”, He Jichen rubbed his sore eyes from the many hours in front of the computer. Then he casually reached for the pack of cigarettes on the desk and lit one up.
He didn’t smoke it but let it burn between his fingertips. He closed his eyes and laid back into his chair as he inhaled the faint smell of tobacco.
As the cigarette burnt down halfway, He Jichen pressed the cigarette into the ashtray. He straightened up and started to form his opinions of the script for “Three Thousand Lunatics”.
Just as he wrote two points, his phone on the table let out a “ding!”
He casually grabbed his phone and unlocked the screen to find that it was empty—he didn’t get any new messages. With furrowed brows, he felt confused for a moment. Then he suddenly realized something. He put the phone down and swapped it out for the other phone by the cup of coffee.
As he typed away on the keyboard with one hand, he used his other hand to unlock the phone.
Sure enough, there was a new message notification. He Jichen casually unlocked the phone and continued to type away at the keyboard for a while. He turned his head, glanced over at the screen, and saw the words: “Yuguang Ge, are you up?” His fingers slowly stopped typing.
He glanced at the timestamp on the message at the top right corner. It was about to be twelve at night.
It was so late, yet she was up texting He Yuguang…
He Jichen’s throat felt like it was being choked and burnt; it had a thick, sore feeling. He hesitated for a moment as his hand shifted from the computer to the phone screen. He tapped a few times and sent the message: “Not yet. Manman, what’s up?”
–
After she successfully sent her text, Ji Yi noticed it was getting late. She figured that He Yuguang must’ve already gone to bed, so she didn’t hold on to any hope that he’d reply. She casually put her phone back on the nightstand.
After coming back from a trip to the bathroom, Ji Yi figured that since she had a class tomorrow morning, she better climb into bed. Just as she was about to force herself to sleep, the phone by her pillow suddenly lit up.
She turned her head and saw He Yuguang’s message: “Not yet. Manman, what’s up?”
Ji Yi drafted a text on her phone: “Yuguang Ge, it’s so late. You’re still up?”
He Yuguang replied: “Mm, I’m busy with some things.”
Before Ji Yi could reply, another text popped onto the screen: “Texting me so late at night… did something happen?”
Chapter 128: Keeping the Whole World in the Dark About Loving You (8)
“Nothing happened.”
After Ji Yi sent out that text, she continued to type on the keyboard: “Yuguang Ge, I got a call from Cheng Weiwan a few days ago. She invited me to take part in the audition for “Three Thousand Lunatics”, and said that someone recommended me…”
Ji Yi clicked the “send” button a second time.
She didn’t wait for He Yuguang to reply before she sent a third text: “Yuguang Ge, aside from you, nobody else knew that I’m interested in “Three Thousand Lunatics”, so are you the person who recommended me?”
She wasn’t sure if it was too late, or if He Yuguang was already asleep, or if he was busy with other things, but Ji Yi waited for a reply for a long time. So much time had passed that she thought He Yuguang wouldn’t text her back. But then, her phone lit up again and she saw that He Yuguang sent her a simple message of just one word: “Mmhm.”
As expected, it was Yuguang Ge…
The last time she saw him, he didn’t say anything more about the show and left.
At the time, she didn’t think too much about the conversation but simply thought he was just asking casually about the TV series. She never imagined that as soon as he turned around, he would actually silently help her fulfill her wish.
It was just like when they were young. When she casually complained about how hard senior high was, later that day, her textbook would be covered in highlighted key studying points. If she mentioned that she wanted to eat cake on impulse, a cake would appear on her desk the next day…
Ji Yi stared intently at the “Mmhm” on the screen as though the text was a thousand words long. In an instant, her heart became eminently soft.
After a while, Ji Yi snapped back to her senses, lowered her head, and saw that there was another message on the phone. It was from Yuguang again. “It’s so late, why are you not sleeping?”
“I’m about to sleep. Yuguang Ge, good night,” replied Ji Yi in a hurry. Ji Yi then swiftly added the message: “Thank you, Yuguang Ge.”
He Yuguang only replied with one word: “Goodnight.”
Ji Yi then put down her phone. Under the dim bedroom lights, she laid on the bed and stared up at the ceiling. For some reason, she started to think about that night when she had a fever and how he stroked her hair. Even though it happened days ago and she was delirious from her fever, she could still clearly recall the care and tenderness of his fingers.
On top of it all, when she brought him a cup of hot tea the next evening, he was playing videos of her younger self…
Does this mean that after so many years, Yuguang Ge still remembers me, treats me just as well as he did before, and didn’t change at all?
An indescribable warmth coursed through Ji Yi’s entire body.
Her fingers couldn’t help but clutch onto the sheets tightly.
In the lonely night, she felt her heart race faster, little by little.
–
He Jichen stared at the chat log on the phone screen for a long time. The more he read it, the more stifled he felt inside, and he instinctively reached for another cigarette.
His fingers fumbled around the pack of cigarettes for a long time, until he caught sight of the ashtray full of cigarette butts of different sizes. He realized they were all from when he received Ji Yi’s message to He Yuguang with the words “Are you the person who helped me?” By the time he thought of how to reply, he had already finished a whole pack of cigarettes.
Chapter 129: Keeping the Whole World in the Dark About Loving You (9)
Nobody knew just how much he wanted to tell her that the person who helped her wasn’t He Yuguang, but it was him, He Jichen.
Not only did he help her with this situation, but he also made the final decision to cast her as Little Nine.
Also, a year before she woke from her coma, he knew many people would be fighting to purchase the rights for this book, “Three Thousand Lunatics,” so he invested a large amount of money to get it.
These past two years, the only reason he hadn’t been in a rush to start production for “Three Thousand Lunatics” was only because he was waiting for her, even though he had no idea when she would wake up.
He knew that after she woke up, she wouldn’t be happy helplessly watching as Qian Ge took everything from her. Though she really was helpless, he’d never allow it. She was the only woman he loved in the world. How could he allow for her to suffer?
So, for an awfully long time now, he had already been silently paving the way for her.
In his whole life, he only had two goals: the first was being with her and the second was helping her reach her dreams.
No matter what price he had to pay, the reality was just as he told Qiange: even if Ji Yi wasn’t at her peak, he would take her there, one step at a time!
The woman he loved should be the most sensational woman in the whole world!
Though he felt this way, there was no way he could tell her these things to her face.
He was afraid to tell her that He Yuguang wasn’t really He Yuguang, but He Jichen. Seeing as she loathed him, if she found out all the great things she thought He Yuguang did for her were actually done by He Jichen, she’d cut ties between them without hesitation.
At that point, he was afraid he wouldn’t even have a chance to get close to her.
So no matter how sad or jealous he was, he still ended up forcing himself to reply with “Mmhm.”
At that thought, He Jichen averted his intense glare away from the phone screen and looked through the dense script of “Three Thousand Lunatics” on the computer screen. His eyes suddenly became overwhelmed with emotion.
Ji Yi, did you know?
In this big wide world, there’s someone keeping the whole world in the dark about loving you.
–
The situation had progressed much faster than Ji Yi imagined.
The day before, she got a call from Cheng Weiwan then the following day, she got a call from the casting director of “Three Thousand Lunatics” to set up a time for an audition the next day.
Ji Yi flipped through her class schedule to find that she didn’t really have any important classes on Monday, so she just didn’t go to school. Instead, she stayed at home and read the script of “Three Thousand Lunatics” which she became completely engrossed with. She completely immersed herself in the world of the supporting female character.
Three days later.
Ji Yi’s audition was really successful. Less than two hours after she finished her audition, she got a call from the casting director for “Three Thousand Lunatics.”
“Miss Ji Yi, congratulations! You’ve been selected to star as our supporting actress. I am calling to ask if you have some time tonight? If possible, I hope you can sign the contract then…”
Chapter 130: Keeping the Whole World in the Dark About Loving You (10)
“Of course I have time,” replied Ji Yi politely.
“It’s like this. Tonight, there’s a party that the main investor, producer, and director for ‘Three Thousand Lunatics’ as well as the chairman of YC Corp and important actors will be attending. Tomorrow morning, I have to fly to America, and I probably won’t be back for over half a month. Before I leave, I want to finalize this contract. What’s more, you’re the supporting female, so you need to meet the people who are responsible for their respective roles. If you’re available, how about we meet tonight at seven at the China World Hotel?”
Ji Yi hoped to quickly finalize the contract even more than the casting director. She didn’t hesitate at all to meet.
To give the production crew a good impression, Ji Yi arrived at China World Hotel, Beijing at half-past six.
She didn’t think the casting director would already be there. After she took a seat, they immediately ordered the assistant to bring over the contract.
“Miss Ji Yi, take a look at the contract. If you have any questions, please do ask.”
Ji Yi responded with “Thanks” and took a serious look through the contract. There wasn’t really a problem with the contract; in fact, the remuneration was higher than she expected.
Not long after signing the contract, people started entering the party room one after the other.
At almost seven o’clock, there were only two empty seats at the dining table; the other seats were already full.
Aside from Ji Yi, the others knew one another. From everyone’s introductions, Ji Yi learned that besides the chairman of YC, the director, the leading actress, and the other actors were all present.
Aren’t we waiting for three people? Why are there just two seats? Could it be someone’s not coming at the last minute?
Even though Ji Yi was curious, she didn’t bother to ask.
The person responsible for today’s party ordered the food in advance. As soon as it turned seven, the waiter started to serve food and alcohol.
At ten past seven, the doors to the party room were pushed open. Before Ji Yi could turn her head to see who it was, she heard a familiar female voice. “I’m so sorry for being late. There was traffic on the way here.”
While holding her phone, Ji Yi’s fingers suddenly tensed up. Among all the chitchat in the room – “Don’t worry,” “Oh! Our leading actress is here,” “We have to punish you with three shots later on”… Ji Yi slowly turned her head and saw who it was.
As the elegantly dressed Qian Ge came into sight, a phrase came to Ji Yi’s mind: The road of enemies is narrow.
Not only was the road of enemies narrow, she was practically meeting her enemy face-to-face!
She never imagined that her second TV series upon her return to the entertainment industry would be with Qian Ge!
Qian Ge leisurely and boldly greeted the people in the party room then pulled out a chair and took a seat.
She reached her hand out for a hot towel, and just as she was about to wipe her hand, she noticed Ji Yi sitting not too far away from the corner of her eyes.
As she paused, a hint of astonishment evidently flashed across her eyes, but soon enough, she calmed down. She tilted her head, stared at Ji Yi, and as though she had bumped into someone familiar, she said in a pleasantly surprised and a friendly manner, “Xiao Yi?”
Chapter 131: Defamation is a Form of Flattery (1)
The first to respond to Qian Ge wasn’t actually Ji Yi but the casting director, who looked full of surprise. He stared at Ji Yi, then back at Qian Ge and said, “You guys know each other?”
“Of course we know each other…” Qian Ge spoke first, her meticulously made-up face had the same friendly and kind look. “…Xiao Yi and I were senior high classmates!”
As she said this, Qian Ge tilted her head again and looked over at Ji Yi. “Xiao Yi, long time no see. How have you been all these years?”
They clearly met each other twice before, and each time they fought on equal grounds… Ji Yi stared at Qian Ge with a caring expression. Her heart felt revolted inside, but in front of everyone, she kept up her deep sisterhood act. She couldn’t not play along with her, so before Qian Ge could speak, Ji Yi instantly plastered on a bulletproof smile and said, “It’s really been a long time. I’ve been alright, and you?”
“Not bad myself…” Qian Ge saw Ji Yi’s smile, and her smile became even brighter. What she said next wasn’t directed at Ji Yi but the casting director: “…Xiao Yi is also on our production team?”
“Yes, she’s the supporting actress,” replied the casting director.
“Director, you really have a good eye. Truth be told, Xiao Yi’s acting skills are great!” Qian Ge looked like she was sincerely complimenting Ji Yi as she looked over Ji Yi repeatedly. “Xiao Yi, I’m really happy we can be on the same production team.”
Even though Qian Ge acted really modest, Ji Yi clearly felt an infinite number of hidden knives and swords heading straight at her. She curved her lips upward and just like Qian Ge, she lied unblinkingly, “I’m delighted too! At first, I was really nervous about acting poorly, but now that I see you, I feel a lot better.”
Qian Ge heard Ji Yi’s words and laughed out loud as though she just heard the happiest thing. But soon enough, she changed the subject and started talking with the producer.
The final empty seat was at the head of the table. The seat hadn’t been filled even after half an hour into the dinner party.
Qian Ge skillfully and easily made her way chatting around the room then stepped out to take a call. After she came back, she whispered something to the investment company’s Mr. Lin, who was sitting next to her. Then she raised a glass to everyone in the room and apologized before leaving the room early.
–
As soon as Qian Ge left the party room, her little smiling face instantly turned incredibly cold. She stomped her heels over to the elevator and headed straight for the underground parking lot.
When she got out of the elevator, she saw that the parking lot was empty, so she immediately reached for her phone and dialed a number in a hurry.
A second after the call was picked up, Qian Ge said, “Xie Siyao, what the hell is this? When I took on “Three Thousand Lunatics,, did you not check in advance to see who the supporting actress was?”
“Who’s the supporting actress? It’s Ji Yi?! It’s not like you don’t know just how powerful she was four years ago! Back then, we tried so hard to beat her down! Luckily, my reflexes were fast tonight. After I found out she was the supporting actress, I immediately thought of a plan. I told the old pervert, Mr. Lin, that the girls who knew Ji Yi said she’s famous for doing anything to reach the top, and she was someone who dared to play any kind of game! I even told the old pervert that Ji Yi slept with three men at once before. I bet the old pervert will definitely hit on her after hearing that, and with Ji Yi’s personality, she’d never allow it. When the time comes, that old pervert will turn embarrassment into anger and definitely kick her off the production…”
Before the word “crew” could leave Qian Ge’s lips, someone suddenly viciously grabbed the phone from her very hands.
Chapter 132: Defamation is a Form of Flattery (2)
Qian Ge, who hadn’t noticed that someone was around, shivered in shock. Her fingers instinctively lost their grip for a second then her phone fell straight to the ground with a “Pa!”
The words “Who’s there?” were about to slip from her mouth, but only the word “who” managed to come out. A cold and stern voice came crashing down on her, “What you said just now… was that true?”
Qian Ge could tell who it was from the voice. It was like her pressure points had been pressed as she became completely frozen on the spot.
In the next second, the person forcefully asked, “You told Lin Zhengyi that she was famous among your girls for daring to do anything to get to the top and that she was someone who dared to play any game?”
As those words fell into Qian Ge’s ears, her fake eyelashes trembled while she snapped back to reality.
It’s him, He Jichen… How did he suddenly turn up here? Also, how did he know I was talking about Mr. Lin, Lin Zhengyi?
The confusion hadn’t cleared in Qian Ge’s mind. Seeing as she was slow to respond, He Jichen impatiently grabbed her wrist and suddenly swung her aside forcefully.
Qian Ge was like a kite with a broken string. She crashed completely into the car without warning, which prompted the alarm system on the car and a string of ear-piercing whistles.
Through all the noise, Qian Ge clearly heard He Jichen grit his teeth and say one word at a time, becoming increasingly cold and emotionless: “You even told Lin Zhengyi she once slept with three guys at once?”
The more he repeated her words back to her, the angrier he got. Qian Ge clearly felt He Jichen gradually tighten his grip on her wrist.
She furrowed her brows in pain before she slowly lifted her eyes and looked straight at He Jichen.
For some reason, his clothes were formal like he was attending some kind of party. Even though the white shirt and black suit were simple and bold, he looked completely majestic and elegant. However, he looked so bleak that he could leak water. The corners of his lips quickly pursed into a single line, revealing just how angry he was inside.
He towered over Qian Ge and stared her down with a faint hint of spitting flames in his eyes.
Qian Ge only saw He Jichen like this once before. It was three years ago, about a month after the car accident when he suddenly appeared in front of her.
At this very moment, he wasn’t as terrifying, bold, or frightening as he was back then.
Maybe she was left scarred from the time he blew up three years ago. Even though he didn’t say anything particularly harsh this time, Qian Ge already felt her back drenched in cold sweat.
Just as Qian Ge’s legs started to shiver, He Jichen glared unwavering at her. He was deeply furious as he sneered, “Hmph. This is truly the first time I’ve met such a shameless woman like you! Someone who can slander and backstab without even batting an eyelid!”
Chapter 133: Defamation is a Form of Flattery (3)
“But with that said, I truly feel sorry for you…” There was an obvious disdain and mockery on He Jichen’s face as he scornfully stared into Qian Ge’s eyes. “…No matter if it’s the you who had nothing four years ago, or if it’s the flashy Queen of the silver screen that you’ve become now, four years later, you can feel it in your very bones–you can’t beat Ji Yi!”
“Because the people who are better than you don’t even bother to mention you, let alone talk about using some kind of underhanded tricks on you!”
“Yet you, by every possible means, racked your brain thinking up ways to torment her, to slander her, and make it look like you’re better than her. But in reality, you forgot that slandering someone is a form of flattery!”
Qian Ge was flushed by He Jichen’s words, but He Jichen didn’t look like he was finished yet. He stared into her eyes with a frosty, icy look, and the words from his mouth were even more merciless and harsh: “Also, you just repeatedly slandered her by saying she would dare to do anything and play any games as though you really understood what you were talking about. Sure enough, you must be an old timer at this game with lots of personal experience!”
How could Qian Ge not understand what he really meant by his words?
He Jichen slyly mocked her. The only reason she knew these things was because she did them herself before!
Qian Ge’s turned pale as she tried to move her lips.
He Jichen sensed she was about to speak, so he beat her to the punch. “But that’s you, and the kind of sacrifices you had to make to be in your position today. However, Ji Yi doesn’t need to, because she’s destined to live a good life since she met me, He Jichen, who’s happy to help her!”
Since liking Ji Yi, he realized just how beautiful it felt to like someone.
Even though he never responded to any of the women who admired him, he respected their affection for him.
All of them but Qian Ge.
He knew she liked him, so he wanted to use that affection to mercilessly torment her.
At that thought, a hint of ferocity crossed He Jichen’s eyes. Though his voice was gentle, there was a faint cruelty which came out: “There’s something I want you to know… I’m the director for “Three Thousand Lunatics,” and I’m also the chairman of YC Entertainment! The only reason you were chosen to be the leading actress wasn’t because you’re some big shot, but because the fame you have today came from stepping all over her. I wanted to put the two of you in the same production crew so that everything you got from stepping all over her is completely returned, bit by bit!”
After Qian Ge heard the truth, her eyes suddenly shot wide open.
She wasn’t stupid because if she was, how could she put Ji Yi in such difficult situations, time and time again?
In that instant, it was like everything became clear.
No wonder when they asked her to sign on to “Three Thousand Lunatics” and she asked who the director, head producer, and supporting actress were, absolutely no one had a clue. All they said was that it was unconfirmed!
