Chapter 357 - Rebuff
“Assistant Li? Now that my partnership is muddled, you have the nerve to gloat about it?!”
The secretary gave a restrained smile. “I wouldn’t dare!”
Despite what she had just said, her heart was actually singing with happiness!
The smile on her face was so obnoxious in his eyes!
Now, even a lowly assistant was laughing at him?
He let loose his temper and shouted in the direction of Mu Yazhe!
“To d*mn with your arrogance! Do you think I care about our collaboration?! What a load of b*ll!”
When Lu Jingtian heard this, she turned to glare at him before coldly telling him off. “Mr. Qian, you are a businessman, so you’d better watch your words, and don’t burn all your bridges. Is it for you to criticize Master Mu?”
The man looked at her and wanted to rebuff but decide against it. This Lu Jingtian was no simple folk despite not being in the same league of power as Mu Yazhe!
She already had tons of benefits lined up for her even though her acting career had yet to take off officially. This was clearly because she had the support of her father, who was a top executive at Huanyu. This, alone, was enough to elevate her status.
The Lu family was wealthy in the first place, and her mother was a prominent figure in China, so after some thought, he decided to hold his breath.
It’s only a woman. Why the need to take it personally? What a spoilsport!
Qian Shaohua could not help but curse. “That’s just a woman! Did that chap have to do this to me? I’ve been putting so much effort into this collaboration for so long!”
“Mr. Qian, again, I advise that you watch your words! You only lost the potential to be a partner this time, but if Master Mu catches wind of your words now, do you think you can continue surviving in the capital in the future?”
That got his attention. With his face still fuming red and hot, he gave a loud snort and then he stormed off.
Li Lan and Lu Jingtian looked at each other and gave a smile as a form of greeting.
Although she was of a high status, she knew how to display a respectful attitude to Li Lan, who was a faithful subordinate of Mu Yazhe, as she politely asked, “Sister Li, who is that woman?”
The assistant was about to answer her honestly, but she seemed to have misgivings, so she gave a different reply. “She’s just a small-time actress in the company! Nothing for you to worry about!”
Her answer was vague and ambiguous. It was no surprise for her to be wary of this Lu Jingtian. For one, this woman was well-known in the entertainment circle for being cruel, especially against any newcomer she deemed as a threat.
There was a rumor saying that she slapped a newbie publicly when the latter badmouthed her. In the end, that poor girl had to wear a mask in her performance due to a swollen face.
Because of the woman’s status and power, the newbie had to address her as ‘Sister Lu’ for this matter to die down.
She was formerly from Haina, Inc., but for a reason or two, she switched to Huanyu Entertainment despite paying her former employer a large fine for breach of contract.
Li Lan might not know her intention, but she could guess as much!
This woman did not come to Huanyu for fame but for another reason!
She definitely did not wish for Yun Shishi to unknowingly offend such a conniving woman before she could get a chance to establish her acting career!
Lu Jingtian was a woman whom no one could afford to offend.
