The man was a portly middle-aged man, and the woman was a young lady, probably in her twenties at most, about 1.75 meters tall, with a slender figure and a good figure, with all the curves in the right places, and she was also very beautiful, a beauty.
The woman's face looked unhappy, as if she was very angry. The middle-aged man had a big beer belly and his face was equally gloomy.
"Did the father and daughter have a fight?" Di Yi asked softly in a voice that only he and Liu Xun could hear.
"..." Liu Xun did not reply. Father and daughter quarreling? Most likely it was because of price or unspoken rules, right? Women nowadays, especially those in the entertainment industry... Well, to put it bluntly, they are legal bitches.
But the subsequent conversation between the two made Liu Xun retract his initial prediction.
"You'd better think it over carefully. If you don't agree to me... Do you think you can be the protagonist of the next play? Do you really think you are a golden flower?" The middle-aged man said in a low voice with a gloomy face. Although the volume was not loud, Liu Xun and Di Yi could hear it clearly.
"Director Wang, please respect yourself! Don't say such disgusting things in front of me. I'm not like them!" The woman glanced at the middle-aged man, trying to control her emotions, but the disgust in her eyes was obvious.
"Different? Why are you pretending to be pure! Do you think the stakes I give you are too low? No problem, you can name the conditions!" The middle-aged man smiled, licked his lips, and then looked at the woman's slim figure.
"Please respect yourself!" Anger emerged in the woman's eyes and she spoke a little louder.
"What the hell are you pretending to be in front of me for? If you don't want to, then why did you come here when I asked you to? Now that you're here, you're still pretending to be noble!" The middle-aged man also became angry when he heard the woman's words.
The woman took a deep breath, calmed down her excitement, and said, "Director Wang, I came here because you asked me to come, and you are my superior. I came here to respect you! But now I find that... you are not worthy of my respect at all!"
Su Qingwu was very angry. She was originally in a good mood when she came here, but she never expected... that the director she respected would actually make such a request to her!
She had also heard about the unspoken rules in the entertainment industry, but she had always believed that as long as she relied on her own efforts, she could get rid of these disgusting unspoken rules. But now she found out... her idea was too naive!
Although she had acted in several dramas, she had fought for the roles in the previous ones by herself. But now... this director was actually threatening her with the next starring role that had already been decided!
"Since you have made up your mind, I will replace you with someone else in the next play!" Seeing that Su Qingwu was not taking any soft threats, the middle-aged man prepared to make a hard threat.
"It's up to you! At worst I can just quit this circle in the future." Su Qingwu said casually.
After the words fell, Liu Xun, who was not far away, smiled. It was quite interesting. The unspoken rules in the entertainment industry have become an iron rule. He really didn't expect... There are actually female stars who stick to their principles.
After Su Qingwu finished speaking, she was ready to leave, but just after she took a few steps, she felt dizzy, her body went limp... and she fell to the ground.
There were few people here, so few people noticed this scene. The middle-aged man smiled, walked to Su Qingwu, helped her up, and said to himself: "Still pretending for me, I'll see you in bed later... Can you pretend like this!"
The middle-aged man carried Su Qingwu towards a room. During the walk, several people asked about it, but the middle-aged man just brushed them off, saying that she was drunk.
"A love potion! This method... is really despicable." Liu Xun did not intervene from beginning to end. Even when the middle-aged man brought Su Qingwu into the room, he had no intention of intervening.
"Why don't you go and take care of it?" Emperor Yi looked at Liu Xun and asked. Normally... Liu Xun would intervene when encountering such a thing, but why didn't he intervene this time
Liu Xun shook his head and said, "This woman and I have no fate, so... it doesn't make any sense for me to intervene or not."
"What do you mean? Didn't you say that meeting is fate?" Di Yi frowned and said.
"Yes, meeting is fate, but there is another saying, if we are destined to meet, we will meet even if we are thousands of miles apart, if we are not destined to meet, we will not even meet each other! Do you understand?" Liu Xun drank the red wine in the glass and said softly.
"Just watch her being..." Di Yi said dissatisfiedly.
"Maybe. Although my fate cannot be controlled by others, and I will not obey the will of heaven! But others'... let God decide! I don't know how many times this kind of incident happens in a day. I can intervene this time, but I can't intervene countless times." Liu Xun said.
Di Yi frowned and retorted: "Don't you find that what you said is contradictory? It's like you insisted on a principle a few days ago, but today... you changed your principle."
"Yes, you are right! I am just that kind of person, I follow my heart and whatever I think of is my principle!"
Liu Xun smiled and continued, "Perhaps I adhere to this principle today, but it is also very likely that I will... follow the opposite principle tomorrow! But no matter how I change, I am still me, my true self! This is the true meaning of following one's heart and returning to the state of simplicity and nature."
Emperor Yi rolled his eyes at Liu Xun and was too lazy to continue chatting with him, but he still wanted to persuade Liu Xun to help the woman. Just as he was about to speak, his face suddenly changed, and a gleam of light flashed in his strange pupils.
Almost at the same time, Liu Xun's pupils contracted and he looked out the gate of the villa. The two said in unison: "Here they come!"
Here it comes! That's right, the Five Elements Fire has appeared! Liu Xun's prediction was correct, the Five Elements Fire is Wang Ling's brother, Wang Xi! He can sense it, and Di Yi can feel it even more!
"Liu Xun, don't worry, he will definitely agree to you!" Di Yi said softly.
"Why?" Liu Xun asked in surprise.
"If he doesn't agree to you... I will beat him into pieces and force him to agree to you!" There was a fighting spirit in Di Yi's eyes. He was just that kind of person. Every time he saw an ancient warrior, he would feel the desire to fight!
"... "Liu Xun was speechless. He came here to ask for help, and you beat him into pieces... Is that appropriate
Outside the villa, Wang Xi was dressed in black and wearing a bronze mask. He glanced into the villa. He did not sense Di Yi's breath, because Di Yi had a vast array of patterns on his body that could cover everything.
"It's her..." Suddenly, Wang Xi's eyes locked on Su Qingwu, who was unconscious in a room in the villa. He was the fire of the five elements and could sense every move of the entire villa. (To be continued)
