Chapter 95: Time to Work
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Song He was annoyed by Lu Gan’s attitude. He was unwilling to give Song Ci the money but if he did not, Lu Gan would not let her return home. If that happened, how could he take advantage of the Lu family? He could only beat around the bush and say, “I want to hear Song Ci’s opinion on this matter.”
Lu Gan swiftly hung up the phone again.
Song He was so angry that he broke a tea set. Then, he sent a message to Song Ci.
[ If you don’t deal with Lu Gan, I’ll tell him about the 50 million. ]
Song Ci looked at Lu Gan and smiled.
“You won’t be shaken by them, right?”
Lu Gan smiled and patted her head.
“Of course. Let’s go and eat breakfast.”
Song Ci nodded. She was not worried about Song He at all. If he wanted to take advantage of Lu Gan, he would have to lower his head first. Moreover, she was their only connection to the Lu family. What happens next would all depend on him.
As expected, around eight o’clock in the evening, Lu Gan received a call from Song He. The latter was willing to compensate Song Ci by giving her another fifty million.
Lu Gan said calmly, “What about our marriage? As her father, shouldn’t you prepare a wedding gift?”
Song He did not expect Lu Gan to act this way. He could only say, “Lu Gan, the Song family is different from the Lu family. 50 million may not be a lot to you but to us, it’s a huge sum of money.”
......
Lu Gan laughed mockingly.
“If you don’t even have that little amount of money, then you’re not fit to be my father-in-law. I won’t let Song Ci return to the Song family.”
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Song Ci, who was listening from the side, felt that he had done a good job. Who knew Lu Gan could be so ruthless. He even asked for two sums of money. She hugged Lu Gan and said sincerely, “Hubby, aren’t you being too kind to me?”
Lu Gan raised his eyebrows.
“Of course. I’m really envious of you. You have such good taste when it comes to choosing a husband.”
“…”
Shortly after Song Ci’s phone rang again. She thought that Song He had caved into Lu Gan’s demands. Unexpectedly, it was a message from Yang Haoran.
[ Recently, an idol drama has started filming in the studio. It lacks a tertiary female lead. The script has been sent to you. Are you interested? ]
Song Ci quickly replied and went through the script.
Upon seeing this, Lu Gan felt conflicted.
“Will you be joining the crew?”
Song Ci replied, “Not necessarily. I have to read the script first.”
Lu Gan helped her print out the script and realized there were not many pages.
“Is it a movie? Why are there so few pages?”
Song Ci took the papers and said, “This is only a small portion. If I’m chosen, they’ll send me the full script. It’s also for the sake of confidentiality”
Lu Gan looked at her.
“I hope this script is good.”
“Me too.”
Song Ci really wanted to start working. Hence, she did not pay attention to Lu Gan’s reaction.
Lu Gan looked at the smile on Song Ci’s face and his expression softened. Although he was reluctant to part with her, he realized that he should not hold her back. She had her own life. When he first met Yang Haoran, he almost blurted out that he did not want Song Ci to go far away. Ever since he saw Song Ci practicing at the underground garage, he knew that she really liked acting.
Whenever he asked Song Ci to perform, she took it very seriously. Even though she knew that he would fall asleep, she did not slack off. All she wanted was to be a good actress. He could not break her wings just because of his selfish desires. Moreover, she had helped him so much. How could he prevent her from being successful?
Lu Gan knew very well that if Song Ci was away for filming, he would suffer from insomnia again. However, this was not her fault. She should not have to suffer because of this. If he acted so selfishly, he would be disappointed in himself. Hence, he said to Yang Haoran, “Everything will be according to her wishes. I just want her to be satisfied.”
Who knew this day would come so soon! Song Ci was still here, yet, he was already feeling reluctant. Just the script was enough to make him feel uneasy.
Song Ci was so focused on the script that she became oblivious to Lu Gan’s emotions. Back in the real world, she was also an actress. Now that she could work again, she felt very excited.
After some time, she dragged Lu Gan back into his room. He still needed to rest. She pushed his wheelchair and began thinking about the physical examination again. Once she began working, she would not have much free time. Furthermore, Lu Gan was so reluctant! What should she do?
