Yan Jinyi leaned against the seat rest, took a sip of water, and answered calmly, “So-so, there’s no reason for us to contact.”
She was extremely arrogant and she didn’t cut Liu Ran any slack at all.
Liu Ran and even the emcee felt awkward.
He had also asked the other cast members similar questions and they would all praise the people whom they were asked about. However, when he asked Yan Jinyi the same question…
Why did she give a different response?
“Hah, is there some conflict between Liu Ran and Jinyi?”
“She’s not fit to have a conflict with me.”
Yan Jinyi’s answer was cool.
Liu Ran secretly clenched her fist, feeling extremely annoyed.
‘Is that b*tch Yan Jinyi out to make things difficult for me?’
‘You’re just in an ambiguous relationship with Huo Zihang. Once he’s sick of you, I shall see how arrogant you can be.’
Liu Ran glanced at Xu Xiaoshan with an aggrieved look.
Xu Xiaoshan hated Yan Jinyi in the first place as she felt that a graduate of a lousy university did not deserve to act in ‘Female Fortress Leader’. Rumor had it that Director Chen had specially reserved the role of Xue Yun’e for Yan Jinyi.
‘What right does she have to deserve that?’
Xu Xiaoshan grabbed the microphone and said sarcastically, “Yan Jinyi, Liu Ran is your senior after all. By being so arrogant and disregarding her, aren’t you afraid that it will backfire in the future?”
Yan Jinyi glanced at her coldly.
“We all belong to the same crew and Sister Liu Ran hopes that we can get along well peacefully in the next few months. Yesterday, Liu Ran invited you to dinner but you turned her down and even insulted her in front of everyone. Today… it’s the press conference to announce the official start of filming and yet, you refuse to do me the favor.”
Apart from the reporters, the remaining audience below the stage were all fans who were permitted entry after some selections. At this moment, Liu Ran’s fans had already started clamoring.
On the other hand, Yan Jinyi remained seated quietly. She was particularly silent.
“Okay, Xiaoshan, cut it out. Jinyi might have some misunderstanding with me because of Zhuang Heng.”
Yan Jinyi finally asked, “What could I have gotten wrong about you? Did I mistakenly think that you’re pretentious or is it a misunderstanding that you’re still clinging onto Zhuang Heng even though he obviously dislikes you?”
Liu Ran’s eyes immediately reddened and she sobbed while looking at Yan Jinyi. “Jinyi, we’re now at the press conference. There’s still a live broadcast going on online. Please simmer down for Director Chen’s sake. If you’re displeased with me, you may let me know in private.”
Liu Ran’s fans became more and more excited.
Tao Wei had given Chen Keyi a precautionary notice about Yan Jinyi, whose roguish personality he was familiar with.
Hence, Chen Keyi remained calm in his seat but some of the younger actores couldn’t tolerate it any longer.
They had never seen such an arrogant person.
However, the reporters and emcee seemed to be too scared to say anything after what she had done.
“Yan Jinyi, you’ve gone overboard. Director Chen asked you to play the role of the supporting role because he thinks that you’re very versatile but that does not give you the rights to be arrogant. Everyone here managed to clinch their respective roles after putting in a lot of effort. Not only did you go through the back door, you’re even shamelessly thinking that you’re a big deal, huh?”
Yan Jinyi stretched lazily, suddenly got up and walked towards the spot behind Xu Xiaoshan.
“You…”
Before she could finish speaking, Yan Jinyi kicked her chair forcefully and snapped, “I couldn’t be bothered to argue with you because we’re at the press conference, but it seems you’re courting death, huh?”
Xu Xiaoshan jerked forward because of the inertia and after her chest was slammed hard against the table in front of her, she was in so much pain that she broke out into cold sweat.
