“That won’t do. This is a task that Master Chen specifically assigned to you. If you don’t agree…” Director Chen spoke hastily and blurted out the truth.
"Oh? So this is the task assigned by Master Chen." Xinluo smiled, her smile was like a delicate flower that was nourished.
The cold color on her face became bright again.
"In that case, you should just tell him the truth. Tell him that I don't want to act anymore. I won't tell you the specific reason, and you won't know. Well, you can give Mr. Chen some advice. If he calls me and asks, maybe I will tell him."
Xinluo smiled slyly, which made Director Chen sweat profusely.
"Well, wait here, I'll make a phone call."
Director Chen didn't know what had possessed him. How could he dare to disturb Master Chen with such a small matter
But based on his more than 20 years of work experience, he could somehow feel that this woman named Alice might really have a different influence on Master Chen.
He asked Xinluo to sit in the lounge, and he went out and called Lu Jiu.
"Master Jiu, this is the situation now. Originally, we shouldn't bother Master Chen with this kind of thing, but... you know, Master Chen personally ordered this, and we didn't expect Alice to refuse to sign. You see..."
On the other end of the phone, Lu Jiu raised the frame of his gold-rimmed glasses and uttered a curse word.
"Oh my god, that woman really refused to sign the contract? She just refused a 25 million yuan salary. Are you sure she's not playing hard to get and negotiating terms with you?"
"Master Jiu, I can guarantee that she was not joking. If she hadn't heard that I was going to call Master Chen, she would have gotten up and left. Master Jiu, why don't you talk to Master Chen about this matter and see what he thinks?"
If Director Chen fails to do what Young Master Chen specifically asked him to do, he really doesn't know what the consequences will be.
"Well... okay, wait a minute, I'll go ask Master Chen." Lu Jiu couldn't resist his curiosity and agreed.
He really wanted to know what Master Chen meant to that woman.
He said he wanted to support her, but he didn't go to meet her.
They offered various favorable conditions, but there was no other expression.
He had previously thought that Young Master Chen was going to take advantage of the other party.
After knocking on the office door and getting permission, Lu Jiu went in.
"Master Lu, Director Chen just called and said that Alice refused to play the leading role in that play."
Lu Jiu's words interrupted Lu Yuchen's thoughts on handling official documents.
He raised his eyes, narrowed his cold eyes, and glanced at Lu Jiu indifferently.
Lu Jiu secretly groaned, his cold and aggressive eyes fully demonstrated that Master Lu was in a bad mood at the moment.
It seems he came at the wrong time.
"Hehe... I was distracted. I shouldn't bother Master Lu with such trivial matters. I'll leave first."
Just as Lu Jiu turned around and prepared to leave, he heard a man's cold and eerie low voice behind him, "Didn't she want to act in that play? Why did she refuse?"
That woman worked really hard during the audition.
He thought that she really wanted to play that role, so he left it to her.
Even though she is just a newcomer with awkward acting skills.
"This... Director Chen said it's not because of the pay, it seems that he just lacks interest. How about you give him a call and show your concern?"
Lu Jiu couldn't figure out Lu Yuchen's thoughts and could only make suggestions carefully.
After he finished speaking, the air in the room seemed to freeze in an instant, and it became terrifyingly quiet. (To be continued)
