Chapter 580: What A Messy Circle (3)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Beibei, have a drink.” Fang Qi poured a glass of wine for Ming Shu. “Why are you not drinking today? You ate so much, you’ll grow fat.”
The awkward atmosphere in the room was lifted slightly after Fang Qi said this sentence.
Ming Shu accepted the glass and took a sip. She smiled. “I will not grow fat. Are you jealous?”
“Nope.” Fang Qi claimed that he would not grow fat, either. There was no need for him to be jealous.
“Beibei, I’m jealous!” A fat guy beside her groaned, “I will get fat even from drinking a cup of water.”
“Go and lose some weight. Hahaha.”
“Fatty, if you don’t lose weight now, you will become the heavyweight candidate of our circle.”
“You can give me your food.” Ming Shu reached out and made to take the lamb meat in front of him.
Fatty immediately covered his food. “Beibei, I will lose weight once I am full. Don’t snatch my food.”
In the end, Ming Shu and Fatty finished a bottle of wine each to fight for the lamb meat. Ming Shu won and got the lamb.
“Beibei!”
The heavy smell of perfume hit her and the guy brought Jiang Han to stand in front of Ming Shu.
“Beibei,” the guy called her again.
Ming Shu protected her food and asked vigilantly, “What?”
The guy hesitated, but when Jiang Han looked at him again, he plucked up his courage. “Beibei, do you still lack people for the show Vast Sceneries ?”
Vast Sceneries was a movie that Beichen was currently preparing. Since the main lead of the movie was a big shot and the director was a famous director, a lot of first-line and second-line actors were eyeing the supporting roles that had not been filled up yet.
However, there was no notice of an audition from the crew so everyone was trying to find connections now.
Ming Shu was the president of Beichen. If she wanted to put someone in the movie, who would dare to say no?
“Beibei, help me, please,” Jiang Han whined, “I really like the script for Vast Sceneries .”
Ming Shu understood why the atmosphere got weird when this girl came in.
The guy seemed to realize that it was inappropriate and pulled Jiang Han back. Jiang Han, however, ignored him and continued pushing her luck. “Beibei, you’re the president of Beichen. I just need a word from you.”
Ming Shu finished her lamb and wiped her mouth with a handkerchief. She smiled. “I am the president of Beichen, but what does that have to do with you?”
Jiang Han said pitifully, “Aren’t we friends? You can easily help me get a role. Beibei, you will definitely help me, right?”
Ming Shu crossed her legs and leaned back. She tilted her head and smiled. “How much are you giving me?”
Jiang Han widened her eyes. “Beibei, with our relationship, do we need to talk about money?”
Ming Shu raised her eyebrows. “What is our relationship?”
Jiang Han said blatantly, “Aren’t we friends?”
“Have I acknowledged it?” The Host had no memory of this person. They were not even fake friends. I wonder where she got her courage from, to demand a role the minute she met me.
Are you planning to make me die from laughter so that you can inherit my snacks?
Let me have a piece of meat and calm down.
Jiang Han instantly became awkward and looked at the guy with puppy eyes. She wanted the guy to speak up for her. The guy hesitated. When he met Ming Shu’s gaze, he pulled Jiang Han away guiltily. “Hanhan, let’s forget about this role. Let’s not make it difficult for Beibei.”
Jiang Han pouted and whined, “But I like it.”
The main leads in Vast Sceneries were all big shots. Who didn’t want to be in this movie?
The guy was baffled. “Hanhan, I will find a new role for you…”
“But…”
The guy immediately pulled Jiang Han away and consoled her as he pulled her out of the private room.
Once they left, Yangyang walked over with a bottle of alcohol. She said with disdain, “Beibei, what did they talk to you about?”
“They wanted a role from Vast Sceneries .”
“Your company’s big movie this year?”
Ming Shu nodded.
Yangyang immediately sneered. “Is she crazy? If Zhao Yang didn’t like her, I would have chased her out of this circle long ago. She is such an eyesore. She just takes us as her resources. Who does she think she is?”
Zhao Yang was the guy just now.
Jiang Han was not part of their circle. Her family background could not be compared to theirs, but Zhao Yang liked her. And he liked her until he was crazy about her.
At first, everyone still gave her some face. Whenever Jiang Han had any request, they would try to help her if they could.
However, after they helped her, Jiang Han didn’t even thank them and even ordered them around. She just took them for granted.
“She will definitely two-time Zhao Yang one day,” Yangyang said and gritted her teeth.
“What can we do? Zhao Yang won’t listen to us now.” Fang Qi interrupted them. “This is a guy in love.”
Ming Shu: “…” Love makes many people stupid.
The party lasted till around 10 PM. After that, Yangyang wanted to gather people to go sing karaoke, but she was really drunk already. The minute she finished shouting, she fell unconscious.
Hence, there was no need to go and sing anymore. Everyone went back home.
Fang Qi sent Yangyang back. Ming Shu had no car and everyone was drunk, so he could only call for a taxi.
When she walked out of the , she saw a dessert shop from the corner of her eyes and staggered into the dessert shop.
There was not much dessert left at night so Ming Shu just randomly chose two of them and sat by the window, eating them slowly.
The scenery outside was mottled. The flickering neon lights flashed across her face.
Not far away, two shadows walked over. A guy was holding onto a girl. The girl was walking unstably. She was limping and seemed to have sprained her ankle.
Ming Shu wanted to shift her gaze away, but she saw the young lady’s face. She focused her eyes on the girl again.
The two of them were walking really slowly. In the end, they just stopped at the window in front of her. She couldn’t hear what they were saying but who knew, they entered the shop after a while.
Besides the attendant, there was only Ming Shu left in the shop. When they entered, the attendant let out a low gasp.
The guy was really handsome. He was like a celebrity that walked out of the television.
“Mister Huo, I can go back myself.” The girl’s voice carried over and it sounded a little impatient. “I won’t need to trouble you.”
“Sit down.” The man was firm. He called the attendant over and ordered a drink.
“Nothing good happens when I meet you.” Xia Lian was even more displeased.
“Heh.”
Ming Shu looked at Xia Lian and Huo Ting with interest. Didn’t they say that Huo Ting was going to come back soon? How did the two of them meet?
The storyline is indeed biased against the villains.
A villain that never turned bad is not a good villain.
Ming Shu took out her phone and snapped a photo of Xia Lian and Huo Ting. She turned off her flashlight, but she didn’t silence her phone. The sound of the shutter sounded clearly in the empty shop.
Huo Ting instantly turned around and looked toward Ming Shu.
Ming Shu’s face was blocked by her phone. He could only see her white chin.
Ming Shu put down her phone calmly and smiled at Huo Ting.
Huo Ting saw the person and frowned. He recognized that girl. Although he never saw her in person before, he saw photos of her.
