Chapter 227: 227 Banquet Director Online Murder 2.0 Chapter 227: 227 Banquet Director Online Murder 2.0 Mr. Yan: “Sounds like a playboy’s script?”
Mr. Yan was calmer than Sun Ling had imagined because he had long been prepared to deal with Shi Lan for a lifetime. Thirty-five years old was just an excuse Yan Shixiu used to appease Shi Lan, who he understood to a depth Sun Ling could not even fathom.
Having regained her freedom, the young lady was only twenty-two, and neither age nor change of status could bind Shi Lan, who was now wholeheartedly pursuing freedom.
Mr. Yan had initially forced her to take on the status of his girlfriend, which was somewhat aggressive, though fortunately, the outcome wasn’t bad. If he kept pressing her now, he would only push Shi Lan further away. In the journey to win his wife back, Mr. Yan’s plans were meticulous.
Shi Lan: “That day in the desert, I already told you: I’m selfish, I disregard others’ feelings, and hurting people is the norm—it was you who insisted on crashing into it.”
Yan Shixiu thought for a moment, reached out to type a reply, and just then, the lady sent another message.
Shi Lan: “But you are my one and only exception.”
Mr. Yan’s heart raced again, and he swiftly sent a voice message to Shi Lan: “Next time, say it in front of me.”
Shi Lan, listening to Yan Shixiu’s restrained voice, felt her scalp tingle and goosebumps all over.
The stunning beauty, Mr. Yan online slaying 2.0.
The next day, while still in the makeup room, Sun Ling saw the official response from Yilong Technology confirming the time of the award ceremony to be at six p.m. on the weekend at Yancheng Sports Center, where they would also announce the real-life spokesperson for “The Demon Walks.”
“The schedule starts at eight a.m. with check-in at the hotel arranged by Yilong, followed by a noon banquet where, I heard, we’ll be seated with the spokesperson for this event. Afternoon is the time for makeup, and the red carpet starts at five. The awards ceremony officially begins at six. Boss, when do you plan to make your appearance?”
“Of course, closing the show fully armed. After all, Yilong doesn’t deserve me taking leave from Director Tang. I’ll give Yilong a surprise when I go up to receive the award.” Shi Lan responded, “Also, tell Tang Ze to be aware. Yilong might imply something about me when they announce the new spokesperson. If he finds out, make sure he notes it down.”
After Shi Lan finished her makeup, she entered the set only to see Chen Beini already waiting in a chair.
“Did you just ignore what the doctor said?”
“The shooting schedule is so tight now, I can’t hold you all back, and lying around is just so boring,” Chen Beini clung to Shi Lan’s arm, acting coquettishly. “Can you not be harsh on me?”
“It’s your body, you call the shots.”
However, it turned out Chen Beini was only being spirited; her physical condition simply could not keep up. The morning’s shooting had continuous NGs over a dozen times, which made Director Tang feel an irritability he hadn’t in a long while.
“Chen Beini, you’re not fully recovered yet, go back and rest. What are you pretending for?”
Gu Chengyu also spoke up: “Don’t just eat anything during the summer. Doesn’t your assistant manage that for you?”
Shi Lan, unable to stand it any longer, stepped forward and supported Chen Beini, saying, “Whether she eats recklessly or not, it’s none of your business.”
An Lan,” sighed Chen Beini, somewhat helplessly, “I was being overzealous. I’ll just sit to the side and watch you all shoot.”
Gu Chengyu gave Shi Lan a look, unsure of what he did to offend her again, and felt wronged.
Boss Shi’s anger flared, and it took her quite a while to swallow back her words.
“Years from now, I hope you won’t regret not having spoken up sooner.”
