Nan Chen left and Luo Fei’s scheme was ruined.
She would not dare to get Ning Ran on her knees again as she could tell that Nan Chen did not want to drive Ning Ran into a corner.
This was an outcome that Luo Fei was most reluctant to face. Things were not progressing the way she wanted them to.
She had no idea what exactly just happened.
Nan Chen had been acting very strangely, but this man was too mysterious and it was impossible for anyone to see through his mind.
“Shall we proceed? Let’s not make any more changes to this script. There will be a lot of complications if we do so…”
Before the director could even finish his sentence, his phone rang. It was a call coming from Nan Chen’s assistant, Jiang Zhe.
He moved aside to pick up the call and there was a look on his face after he hung up.
The assistant director walked over and asked him, “What is it now?”
The director replied, “Jiang Zhe called to instruct us to increase the second female lead’s screen time by at least thirty percent and make her go astray. She will then survived an ordeal, turned into a new leaf and finally understand that love is the key to forgiveness and hatred cannot lead to happiness.”
“Huh? If we make these changes, then wouldn’t she become the female lead? Luo Fei’s screen time isn’t even as much as hers!” The assistant director exclaimed; his face full of concern.
“Yes I know, but Jiang Zhe said that this was Nan Chen’s idea. We have no choice but to follow.”
The assistant director strokes his beard, and said, “This is not right. This insignificant person put Nan Chen on the spot just now, why would he increase her screen time? Now what does this imply?”
The director shook his head and replied, “I’m not too sure, but all the while Nan Chen’s way of handling things has always been unpredictable. The fact that he made a trip down today to check out the set is already a strange behavior. Such a busy man like Nan Chen had never made a visit here. But even though he did drop by today, it didn’t seem like he came here specifically for Luo Fei.”
“What makes you think so?”
“Did you not notice that Nan Chen did not even look at Luo Fei straight in the eye? He did not even express any concern about her injury when he heard that she was being beaten up. This isn’t how usual couples would act.”
He added, “If Nan Chen bristles with anger for his lover, this person who caused her pain would be in a horrible state. But now just look at what has happened. This person didn’t suffer any consequences, but instead had additional screen time, making her a first female lead. Can you understand what is going on here?”
The assistant director shook his head, and said, “I don’t understand. I really don’t. Seriously! But since this was his request, let’s just go ahead! Sugar daddy calls the shots.”
While the two directors stood there making wild guesses, Ning Ran and Luo Fei on the other side were also at odds.
