Chapter 648: Causing Trouble In Hollywood Is Asking For Death
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The thought of it already gave her a headache. Lin Che quickly called everyone out to talk about work and told them about the matter.
The a.s.sistant said, “Mr. Stephen called just now and said that he has someone who appreciates C Nation’s culture a lot. Since it’s a rare occasion that Sister Che is in Los Angeles, he wanted to invite you to talk about C Nation culture.”
Lin Che knew that many foreigners were actually appreciative and curious about C Nation’s traditions and culture. Thus, she agreed to it.
Stephen sent someone to pick Lin Che up. Lin Che brought a translator and a.s.sistant with her.
They went to an American country bar that looked very casual. Inside, Stephen saw that Lin Che was here and his att.i.tude was much better than during the day. He said to her, “This is one of Hollywood’s tyc.o.o.ns, Mr. Henry.”
“h.e.l.lo,” Lin Che smiled and greeted.
Mr. Henry looked at Lin Che and was in awe. “Yes, Miss Lin has the characteristic of C Nation. She is very delicate and pretty. Actually, in the United States, there are more and more C Nation immigrants because we are like a big family. We are different from other countries. This is the world’s village. Thus, when I saw Miss Lin, I knew that with Miss Lin acting in this film, there would be no problems be it from C Nation or Hollywood.”
Lin Che smiled and thanked him.
After they sat down, she couldn’t say that much because of the language barrier. She listened as the other party talked non stop while the translator at the side translated every sentence continuously.
She was only in charge of nodding her head.
Stephen said, “Mr. Henry’s mansion is in the luxury residential estate behind Hollywood. You probably know where that is. There are a lot of superstars staying there. It’s extremely famous.”
The translator whispered beside Lin Che’s ear. “That place is indeed very famous. Really. No commoners reside there. There are only luxurious villas. It prospered because of Hollywood and is in a very good location. Sister Che can consider taking a walk there. Perhaps you might b.u.mp into a superstar.”
Lin Che replied, “Really… That’s very good.”
As Lin Che sat there, she felt that man getting touchy with her.
Lin Che didn’t want to think in that direction at first because foreigners were more open after all. Perhaps their actions would be more intimate and make her uncomfortable, but it was normal to them.
However, when a man slid his hand along a woman’s exposed leg, that shouldn’t be normal.
Lin Che stood up.
The guy looked at her surprised.
Lin Che said, “It’s nothing. It’s just that perhaps Mr. Henry mistook me for someone he’s familiar with. I should sit over there.”
She intentionally spoke in a way so that her rejection would be sufficiently obvious.
With all her experience in the entertainment circle, Lin Che knew that if she didn’t make a clear rejection, it would become more dangerous for her. Thus, she decided to say it out clearly.
Mr. Henry was indeed stunned, but he looked at Lin Che and shrugged.
Lin Che smiled, “Sorry. It’s my first time working here and I don’t really know the culture here. However, C Nationals tend to be more conservative. I hope everyone doesn’t mind.”
Stephen looked at her meaningfully. He smiled and wanted to light up a cigarette but put it back down as he thought it was not right. He said, “Sorry, I almost lit up my cigarette. I have to respect the ladies and not light it up. Miss Lin, it’s okay. Just sit with me.”
Initially, Stephen heard that some actors in C Nation would use underhanded means to attain roles.
Naturally, this also happened over here but it was discreet.
On the other hand, some C Nation actors would probably not care about all these and even take the initiative to offer themselves for the sake of coming to Hollywood.
However, Lin Che rejected it.
This surprised him, but also made him appreciate her even more.
Lin Che heard this and looked at him gratefully. She knew that he meant that it was alright as long as she rejected it. He could promise that she would not meet with any problems.
Thankfully, Mr. Henry saw that she was not interested and Stephen seemed very firm too. Thus, he did not mention it again.
Anyway, if she didn’t want to, then so be it. There were plenty of other women around and he didn’t need to force it.
If he really liked her, there were many other ways to move her. There was no need to be angry and force things here.
After chatting for a while more, Lin Che stepped away to get some water.
The translator and a.s.sistant quickly followed behind.
The translator said, “Fortunately, they won’t use force in public. Otherwise, that would really be troublesome.”
Lin Che sighed, “It’s okay. If he didn’t react after warning him, then forget it.”
Actually, Lin Che rarely encountered something like this back home because she basically rejected all entertainment appointments. She usually would not show up at these appointments unless it was really a post-production dinner or a crew gathering. She would then go there for fun. She really met these unspoken rules when she was not yet famous.
Thus, she couldn’t really react in time just now.
However, at that moment.
A woman slapped her across the face.
Lin Che held her cheek in shock. She saw a woman standing in front of her. Her blonde hair was gathered to one side and her slender, white neck was exposed on the other. She was obviously a very fair Caucasian. She wore exquisite makeup and looked gentle. However, the expression on her face was murderous.
She immediately exclaimed, “So you are the mistress that Henry found? Ha, a C National. His taste really can change that much.”
The translator translated it for Lin Che. She understood what was happening and quickly said, “You’re mistaken. This is only my first time meeting Mr. Henry.”
However, the translator was also probably a little too slow. Before the translator could finish translating, the woman’s hand was already coming toward Lin Che’s face again.
This time, Lin Che was aware of it and she began to struggle with the woman.
“Ah, let go of me. d.a.m.n it. Can you understand what I’m saying? You still dare to hit me?” Lin Che yelled. She was also not to be outdone and was not afraid of fights.
The woman was equally fierce. She did not expect Lin Che to resist but once she knew of it, she grabbed Lin Che and refused to let go. She spoke agitatedly, “You dare to come to Los Angeles and behave atrociously? Do you really think that C Nation’s supremacy applies here? I don’t care what celebrity you are in C Nation. You came here to seduce Henry. I will beat you to death and make sure that you can never get any role in Hollywood…”
The a.s.sistant and translator saw this and quickly rushed to help pull the blonde woman away.
The blonde woman was agitated. She picked up a candlestick by the side and threw it at Lin Che.
Lin Che caught the candlestick and hurled it back. They fought to and fro…
The candlestick suddenly hit the woman’s face.
Fresh blood gushed out from her forehead.
The woman was stunned.
The candlestick landed on the ground with a thud.
She stepped back and looked at the blood on her hand.
“Ah, my face… My face…” she exclaimed.
Lin Che also covered her mouth. She did not expect to hit the woman like this…
However, she was really on self defense just now. Who told the woman to throw the candlestick at her?
If she didn’t retaliate, the one bleeding… might have been her.
