Chapter 1038: Don’t Act Like A Big Boss only because You Saved Her
Xu Zhengxuan was hurt.
Yan Su said with a gentle voice, “How about this… I’ll cook for him when I’m at home. We can also eat in the canteen at our school sometimes.”
“I don’t really like your food, but since you’ve said so, I think I’ll accept your kindness. After all, I’m injured because of you,” said Mo Liuxi in a bland tone.
“You are so shameless,” Li Ming whispered silently.
Mo Jin twisted his ear and said, “What are you talking about? Don’t act like a big boss only because you saved her.”
“Stop. I’m gonna get st.i.tches,” said Mo Liuxi.
Yan Su understood that Mo Liuxi had said that deliberately so his family wouldn’t overthink things.
“Aunty Mo, it’s okay,” she said hurriedly. “He’s always like that. I’ve known it since long ago.”
…
Mo Liuxi got twelve st.i.tches in his arm. After that, he still needed to take four bottles of intravenous drip for anti-inflammation. Nian Junting told Mo Jin, Luosang, and the others to head back while he himself stayed in the hospital with Mo Liuxi.
Yan Su didn’t know what to do. She didn’t have the heart to leave. Staying there seemed to be a little inappropriate too.
While she was hesitating, she received a call from Xiang Wan. “Are you in the hospital with Mo Liuxi now?”
“Yeah.”
“Leave now. The production team has published what happened tonight on Weibo and apologized. They terminated their partners.h.i.+p with Mr. Jia. He’s no longer a producer on the film. He Jian was kicked out of the team because he helped Mr. Jia,” Xiang Wan said. “They didn’t mention your name, but people have mostly guessed it correctly since you’re the newest artist on the whole crew, and because you’re young and pretty. Many media reporters have contacted me. I’m having an emergency meeting with my team.”
Yan Su was stunned. She hadn’t expected things to end like that.
No wonder Li Ming had left to take phone calls earlier.
“Be ready. I think the press will try everything to interview you,” Xiang Wan reminded her. “Mind your language. You can’t go against the production team. I think they’re trying to make things right. They still need the film to be done.”
“But Director Li has quit the job.” Yan Su was a little angry, but also found it hilarious.
“He will go back if he still wants to direct other films in the future,” said Xiang Wan firmly. “Because the production team has published the whole story ahead of the others, and kicked both Mr. Jia and He Jian as the supervisor out of the team. They have shown Director Li enough respect and have punished the bad guys for you and Mo Liuxi. If he refused to return to the crew but insisted on bringing this to court, he might not win. If he did win and made those producers suffer a heavy loss, no other investors would dare to invest in his films again. He’s a smart man.”
“Check their Weibo posts. They complimented Mo Liuxi and said that he saved you bravely. A lot of people are praising him online now.”
Yan Su sighed. She figured that Mr. Fei was the one who’d done all that.
She was impressed. When the conflict happened, he’d been sitting aside and watching.
Not long after she ended the call, Li Ming came back and told Mo Liuxi the news.
After hearing the whole story, Nian Junting frowned and said, “I think you should go back. Even though Mr. Fei is not a good person, he has thrown you a ladder and left you no choice but to climb.”
Director Li sighed. “That’s what I’m thinking. I have no choice. Liuxi, you… They said that you can still be in the crew if you want to. But if you don’t want to do that, they won’t make you.”
“I’ll do it,” Mo Liuxi said with a faint smile.
How was he supposed to keep torturing s.h.i.+ Xiang without going back to the crew?
