Chapter 168 Setting Traps (1)



Producer Luo answered, "Yes."

"Then, what do you plan to do?"

Being asked this question, Producer Luo should have already expected it when he received the script she sent to him. He should already have an answer to that question as well, but he couldn\'t bring his mouth to say it.

The matter with changing the script was already exposed and it was indeed wrong for the crew to do this to Ran Xueyi. However, Producer Luo couldn\'t honestly take any actions at the moment because he realized that Director Zheng and Scripwriter Chun must have a backer behind him which led them to have the courage of a tiger to do this without telling him beforehand.

Anyone would know by now that there are two options he could go through. The first was for him to retaliate after what Director Zheng and Scriptwriter Chun did and make them resign. However, this method would surely disappoint the big investor and they might even pull out their funds from the drama, leading the drama to be incomplete because of the low budget.

The second was to grit his teeth and ignore this entire matter and act as if nothing happened. Though in this way, Ran Xueyi, the female lead of the drama would be dissatisfied and might sue them, he could pacify her by paying her the damages for breaching the contract and still ask her to play the role after.

And if Ran Xueyi refuses to accept this... Then, Producer Luo could only force himself and ask her to leave the drama.

Upon thinking of this, Producer Luo couldn\'t breath and even mocked himself for being played like a fool. Now, if he did one of these methods, he would touch his bottom line and slap his face for allowing such underhanded methods to exist under his nose.

Yet, there was no other way to escape this.

He had to choose between Ran Xueyi and the big investor.

In the end, Producer Luo chose the big investor\'s side even if he didn\'t want to. He wanted to complete this drama since they bought the copyright for the original novel, prepared all the props, hired all the necessary people needed during the filming, he couldn\'t possibly give them all up just for Ran Xueyi, right?

"I\'m sorry, Miss Ran. You should probably already know my answer. I can\'t do anything but yield to their power."

After saying this line, Producer Luo ruthlessly cut their call off.

On Ran Xueyi\'s side, the sound of -tut-tut- rang through her phone\'s speaker. From the moment Producer Luo answered her call, she already pressed the speaker so everyone inside her room could hear his voice. Zhao Fei and Feng Huai were so enraged by what they heard and glaring at the phone on top of the table. They could barely keep themselves from screaming at the phone.

Thankfully, they stopped their urges and Ran Xueyi successfully got what she wanted. During this whole time, she was also recording their conversation and had a look of disappointment.

Zhao Fei noticed this and calmed herself down. She patted her shoulder and said, "Don\'t be too disappointed. It has always been like this in our circle."

Ran Xueyi lightly showed a smile and shook her head. "I\'m alright. I just had some bit of hope that Producer Luo would be different from them."

Feng Huai also agreed with this, but he was still enraged by their situation. He pumped his fist in the air and said loudly, "Those bastards are really something! Producer Luo acts as if he\'s an ethical and virtuous person, but he\'s just like everyone else in the crew! As for Director Zheng and Scriptwriter Chun, they don\'t deserve to be called this, we should call them Turd Zheng and Lackey Chun!"

Ran Xueyi did not know whether to laugh or cry at his outburst. But he wasn\'t wrong. Even she had some expectations from Producer Luo and even thought that he wouldn\'t let others treat him like a fool and step on his moral standards.

"You looked relieved." Suddenly, Zhao Fei said this while observing Ran Xueyi\'s expression. It didn\'t escape her eyes when the corners of Ran Xueyi\'s lips twitched as if she was holding a smile.

Ran Xueyi glanced at her dumbfoundedly before admitting guiltily, "Was I too obvious?"

Zhao Fei raised her eyebrows.

Ran Xueyi sighed. "It might be because I\'m excited."

Excited?

Both Zhao Fei and Feng Huai stared at her strangely. Why was she feeling excited when she\'s being supressed and bullied by someone? Suddenly, they had a crazy thought. Is Ran Xueyi someone who liked being bullied?

Ran Xueyi didn\'t know what was inside their minds and hummed a tone under her breath. But because of this enthusiastic hum and her smiling expression looking like a child who was about to receive a reward from her parents, their thoughts solidified and already branded Ran Xueyi as a masochist.

If only Ran Xueyi knew what they were thinking, she would be extremely shocked and lock herself inside her bedroom to have a self-reflection.

\'Ping!\'

The sound of her phone receiving a message soon echoed inside the room and Ran Xueyi\'s smile became wider. She looked and saw the message was from Wu Qi. The first message was a string of files with photos attached inside them and in the last message, he apologized for the late reply, saying that he was late because he had to gather all the information and data he could get not just on Director Zheng but the entire crew so it took almost a day to finish gathering everything and putting them into files before sending it.

Ran Xueyi was not angry because of this and was instantly pleased that Wu Qi made his own actions before she could tell him what to do. She sent him a reply to thank him for his hard work before checking the files he sent to her.

​ Surprisingly, he was right about his decision. It wasn\'t only Director Zheng who had something dirty going on with him, Scriptwriter Chu, some of the cameramen, and a few other crew members had something on them that shouldn\'t be made to see the light.

According to the photos and information inside the files, Director Zheng, who was upright and decent in his job as a director changed soon after he and actress Gu Jiao, who was also the second female lead of the drama, met at a club. They met under the guise of a cast gathering to nurture the relationship of the people who will work together in the drama.

However, Ran Xueyi remembered she wasn\'t even invited in that gathering so how the hell did it become a place and time to nurture their working relationship?

Coincidentally, the club that they went to was one of the clubs that was part of the other clubs in the country that was under YH Group which was Song Yu Han\'s self-owned company. Thus, they were able to get the surveillance camera recordings without any trouble.

But what Ran Xueyi shocked her was that under the couple of photos where Director Zheng and Gu Jiao were talking to each other very closely was a video recording.

Ran Xueyi didn\'t think too much and played it. But she soon regretted ever playing it.

Because it was an intimate video of Director Zheng and Gu Jiao.
