Huo Xishen’s face was slightly stern. “It seems that you guys have been won over by that woman during this period of time?”
Huo Qingyuan said blatantly, “Second Brother, if you come back, you’d be won over by Second Sister-in-law too! I heard that she invested 100 million yuan of your money in the film. If she makes a loss, I’ll take responsibility. Please don’t chase Second Sister-in-law away!”
Huo Zihang said, “Me too.”
‘Indeed, stupidity is contagious.’
Huo Xishen hung up the video call with no expression.
However…
He actually heard about what his wife was like from others.
Huo Xishen suddenly thought of Yan Jinyi’s voice that he overheard when he was talking to Zhang Guoquan earlier.
“I’ll admit that I’m not a woman the day you can give birth to children.”
He felt that she was quite… wild and gangsterish.
She was a little different from the Yan Jinyi he remembered.
Yan Jinyi had been diligently filming.
She found that being an actress was quite a good thing.
In particular, she could let herself go when playing this role in the film and act like how she used to in the past.
She was still the leader of the Black Cloud Fortress and the bandit leader who was a vicious tyrant that got rid of all evil.
After successfully filming another scene that left her drenched in sweat, the crew members around Yan Jinyi became her hardcore fans.
“I really don’t understand how Jinyi stayed as a background actress for three years. Her acting skills are far better than a certain ‘Best Actress’!”
“In addition to her excellent acting skills, she’s also prettier than someone else. Rumor has it that Zhuang Heng agreed to star in this film because of Jinyi.”
“Ah, I purely wanted to come and earn some money, but now I discovered that this film is definitely going to become a hit! Director Tao is also different from the rumors!”
“I came here for Zhuang Heng, and then I became a fan of Jinyi.”
Yan Jinyi simply ignored the discussion going on around her and grabbed the milk tea that Zhuang Heng specially instructed his assistant to deliver. She instantly felt like her mind and body had been soothed.
“Jinyi, I think you should take a look at this.”
Tao Wei handed his phone to Yan Jinyi with a grave expression.
‘Are we on the hot search list again?’
Yan Jinyi looked at it with raised brows, only to realize that it was indeed so.
Just an hour ago, Lin Chenggong, the director of ‘Islander’, posted a statement on Weibo to praise the male and female leads for being dedicated to their roles. He also sarcastically criticized Tao Wei.
That was not all. Later on, Lin Chenggong even revealed his conversation with a high-post executive of Huo Group who stated that there was currently only one daughter-in-law of the Huo Family, who was Shen Yan, the wife of the eldest son of the Huo Family, Huo Chengyu. She was currently furthering her studies abroad.
Meanwhile, the helmsman of the Huo Group, Huo Xishen, was currently single.
Lin Chenggong even posted another statement on Weibo.
“Lin Chenggong: Senior, I really sympathize with you for what you’ve experienced and I’ve been feeling guilty for not being able to help you, but this is not a valid reason for you to lie to everyone. If you are short of money, you can tell me, why borrow from loan sharks and make up a ‘Second Young Mistress Huo’?”
The following comments were all clear compliments for Lin Chenggong’s loyalty and criticism for Tao Wei’s poor character.
“Damn it, so that’s what happened. Tao Wei is horrendous. The high-post executive of Huo Group has already personally clarified this. How can it be fake?”
“Zhuang Heng, hurry and terminate the contract. If you have to compensate for breaching the contract, we’ll do the crowdfunding for you!”
“Tao Wei, go to hell. This is vile. Doing so is a crime and you’ve even created false rumors for the Huo Family. This is intolerable!”
”I heard that it was Yan Jinyi who took the initiative to say that Second Young Mistress Huo was willing to invest. Could the mastermind perhaps be Yan Jinyi?”
Those who were initially slamming Tao Wei began scolding Yan Jinyi too.
