"Director, we had reserved this place first," Mo Jun stepped forward and said to the director, "You rented it out from under us, and we didn’t say anything about it. Everyone had agreed on terms yesterday, but now you’re going back on your word at the last minute. That doesn’t seem right, does it?"
"I’m really sorry, but there’s nothing I can do," the director replied awkwardly, "You should look for another place. We need to start filming, so please leave as soon as possible."
"If you don’t leave, we’ll have to call security!" the director said sharply.
"How can you do this?" Sun Qiao suddenly cried out in dissatisfaction, "We had the reservation first, and it was already low of you to snatch it away from us, but to go back on your word now—is there no integrity left?"
"Yeah, is there no integrity at all?" Axing and the others also expressed their discontent.
Seeing they seemed ready to make a scene, the director said fiercely, "We rented this place, and it’s up to us to let it out or not. Clearly, we won’t let it out to you now. Just go, do you hear me?"
"You..." Sun Qiao was furious.
Mo Jun raised her hand to stop him, "Let it go, let’s just leave."
Continuing the argument was pointless and would only lead to conflict, which wasn’t worth it at all.
Cameraman Tian could only compromise reluctantly...
Just as they were turning to leave, Joanna suddenly stood up and said, "Director, why don’t we take a break at noon? I see that everyone is tired, let’s rest for two hours and continue filming at 2 pm."
The director was surprised and asked incredulously, "Anna, you’re not thinking of giving in to them again, are you?"
"Director, I didn’t say that. This place is ours to rent, how could we just give it away to someone else? Right?"
The director laughed, "Yes, you’re right."
"That woman is doing this on purpose!" Even Yun Long was angry.
Mo Jun turned back to look at Joanna and met her scornful sneer.
Did this woman know her, and why did she feel such hostility from her?
But she didn’t know this woman at all...
"Do you need help?" Xia Yu suddenly asked her.
Mo Jun turned around in surprise, "Xiaopu, what are you going to do?"
Xia Yu glanced at Joanna and said coldly, "Let her stay where it’s cool. Conveniently, I know the owner of this hotel, I’ll have him deal with this."
"Deal with what?" Mo Jun asked again, as the others looked on expectantly.
"With the hotel’s breach of integrity. Since we reserved it first, it’s our right to use it. Don’t worry, I’ll call the owner to discuss it."
"Xiaopu, won’t that be too much trouble?" Mo Jun asked with concern.
Xia Yu shook her head, "Not at all, it’s just a phone call away."
"Miss Xia, do you really know the owner of this hotel? I heard he’s quite formidable. If he could help us solve this, it would definitely work out. We just don’t want you to owe someone a favor," Cameraman Tian said worriedly.
Xia Yu broke into a smile, "Don’t worry, the owner is a friend of mine."
"Really? That’s great!" Cameraman Tian said happily, "Miss Xia, then please ask the owner for a favor. We only need to shoot for two hours."
"Sure." Xia Yu took out her phone and dialed a number.
Mo Jun and the others waited with anticipation, wondering if the owner Xia Yu was calling would be accommodating.
But Xia Yu seemed so casual about it, so it should be fine.
Knowing Xia Yu’s identity, Mo Jun thought this kind of matter should indeed be trivial for her.
