126 Watermelon
At this moment, Wang Mian, who was a few years older than Ji Jun, accidentally discovered the staff’s scheme and rushed out to protect him. It could be considered that she saved Ji Jun once.
With this friendship, the two of them had always had a good relationship all these years. Ji Jun had exposed what He Yu had done in front of Director Sun and chased He Yu out of the production team. Naturally, he had to find a new female lead for Sun Li.
Otherwise, if this matter troubled Sun Li and kept causing trouble for him, it would make it seem that he, Ji Jun, was too domineering and easily displeased.
Coincidentally, he knew that Wang Mian had left her production team, so he contacted her immediately.
With Wang Mian’s status, most of the top-tier scripts in the industry would be reviewed in her email. Hence, she had seen the script for “Tomorrow” before and liked it very much. She also heard that this role originally belonged to He Yu. Thinking that she could make a fool of He Yu, she agreed without hesitation.
As expected, when Sun Li heard Wang Mian’s name, he immediately patted Ji Jun’s shoulder happily. “I know that you will handle things very appropriately.”
After Wang Mian finished talking about He Yu, she suddenly gossiped, “Is that Yu Han really your little lover?”
Ji Jun, who was standing in the courtyard, hesitated for a moment and instinctively glanced at the small courtyard next door. In the afternoon, his manager said that he saw He Meng rent the courtyard next door, so Yu Han should have moved in by now.
This park was located in a remote area and was not popular, so it was especially quiet at night. Only the sounds of insects and birds could be heard.
Looking out of the courtyard, the opposite side was filled with overlapping mountains. It looked especially green and blue in the day, but the dark shadows looked a little terrifying at night because there was no light. It was as if a huge monster was lying there and watching them. It was as though it would pounce on them at any moment and destroy them in a second.
If it were a timid girl, she would probably lock her door at night and not dare to come out alone.
Ji Jun stood alone in the courtyard. The evening breeze gently brushed past his hair and lifted a corner of his bangs. He looked at the dim yellow light passing through the courtyard next door and felt very peaceful. It was so peaceful that it made him want to lie on the rocking chair and have another slice of watermelon.
“The elders of our two families are on good terms, so they instructed me to take care of her more often.”
But who was Wang Mian? At this age, people who could act well would have better emotions and insight than ordinary people. Hence, she caught Ji Jun’s hesitation and said with a smile, “You’re not honest, kid.”
However, Ji Jun ignored her. “Director Sun is in a hurry to get started. How’s the matter on your side going?”
“Don’t worry, I’ve already prepared the information.” She wouldn’t be soft-hearted if those bastards dared to bully her!
“I hope you’re smarter this time. Don’t be led into a ditch again.”
Before Wang Mian gritted her teeth and flipped out, Ji Jun said, “You can call me if you need me.” Then, he immediately hung up.
Wang Mian was a little indignant. She cursed, “This darn kid is still so annoying after so many years.” However, she still had a smile on her face as she scolded.
Yu Han put away her cell phone. “Who can compete with Wang Mian? Looks like this show has to end.”
“We’re only halfway through the show,” He Meng said. “He Yu really thinks that she has half the power in the entertainment industry, so she keeps bullying a newcomer like you.”
She, He Meng, was able to become a top manager in the entertainment industry not because she was a softie who “didn’t fight back”, but because she fought with others step by step. Hence, since He Yu dared to provoke them again and again, she had to be prepared to suffer a backlash.
He Meng walked into the room in her 11-centimeter high stilettos and went to think about how to deal with He Yu. Yu Han thought that she could leave this matter to He Meng. After all, it was her duty. If He Meng could not handle it, she would give it another push.
The various platforms watched the gossip and joined in the fun. Yu Han’s face turned red and her throat was a little dry. She could not help but think, “If only there were watermelons to eat at this time.”
As soon as she finished speaking, a refreshing watermelon fragrance wafted over from outside.
“Gasp, did I encounter the Magic Lamp?” Otherwise, why would the watermelon appear just as she said that she wanted to eat watermelon?
Under Lang Yu’s permission, Genie Ji Jun carried a basin of cold watermelon into the small courtyard.
