Now that you're a top star, can't you enjoy life a little?

Director Wang's first reaction was to strongly refuse.

Accepting the investment and ceasing to cause trouble for Yu Huai was already the biggest concession he had made.

If he weren't in genuine difficulty right now, given his temperament, he wouldn't have let Yu Huai, the enemy who "slapped him in the face" in front of cameras and everyone else, get away with it.

He will definitely make Yu Huai fall from "heaven" and taste the hell of having no roles to play and being ignored by everyone.

Why is Yu Huai being cast in his new movie, and given an important role?

Are you kidding me?

Yu Huai is a top celebrity in the industry. Although he had never met him before, he knew him to some extent. His acting skills are so bad that he can barely act in an idol drama, and now he's participating in his movie?

Even if Yu Huai hadn't offended him before, he would never have agreed to this condition; this was his insistence on art.

He couldn't let Yu Huai, that rotten apple, spoil the soup he had painstakingly prepared over five years.

It's impossible!

"One hundred million."

[Congratulations, host, on completing the advanced mission of the Entertainment and Business System: Gaining the Appreciation of an Industry Bigwig]

[Rewards for completing the mission: Sales Card, Dream-Inspired Minister]

Outside the teachers' office.

Feng Fu stood outside the door, anxiously awaiting the result.

Aside from the other three members of Xingmeng, there was no one around him except for a "no man's land." No one dared to risk offending Director Wang and stand with them at this moment.

What if Director Wang misunderstands that I'm in cahoots with these people?

Beside Feng Fu, Yang Ming stared at the office door, his face full of worry and concern.

Influenced by the emotions of the two, Bai Zhi also frowned. As for Yu Huai, the other protagonist of this crisis...

He was busy arguing with an award-winning actress, or more accurately, staring directly into her eyes.

"Director Wang will be out soon, you'd better apologize to me right now!"

Eileen stood far away from him, and in this contest where whoever blinked first lost in terms of momentum, she was the first to be defeated.

But she was unwilling to just watch the other person be so smug, so she added another sentence.

Seeing Yu Huai in a daze, she was secretly delighted.

He really did scare himself! Haha!

Yu Huai wasn't frightened by her, but rather startled by the system notification in his ear, once again transforming into a bewildered Louis XVI.

What's going on?

How did you complete the task again?

The last mission to win over fans was completed without his knowledge, and this mission to gain the appreciation of a big shot is the same.

Before he could figure it out, the door to the teachers' office creaked open. Everyone present was immediately drawn to the sound.

Director Wang and Jiang Rendong emerged from the office one after the other. Director Wang's expression was neither good nor bad, but the gloom he had before entering was gone.

It seems the problem has been resolved. I wonder what kind of exchange of benefits that incredibly beautiful Ms. Jiang reached with Director Wang.

The onlookers pondered, then turned their gaze to Jiang Rendong, who walked out behind him, hoping to find some clues on the face of this CEO Jiang, and also to admire the beautiful woman.

To their disappointment, Jiang Rendong's expression remained as calm as ever; apart from her good looks, there was nothing else to tell.

Director Yang Quan immediately went to Director Wang and quietly asked if they could leave. The other artists who participated in the recording also quickly went over to offer their greetings.

Yang Ming was the first to walk toward Jiang Rendong. Looking at her stunningly beautiful face, which even female celebrities in the industry couldn't match, he was completely captivated.

Even with no expression, Dongdong is still so charming... Huh? What's going on?

Dongdong actually frowned?

Why does it seem like she's a little angry?

This was the first time Yang Ming had seen such a "intense" emotional fluctuation on Jiang Rendong's face. He was momentarily confused, then overwhelmed with intense joy.

Dongdong must be upset with me for not giving her water right away. After all, she'd been negotiating with others inside for so long; she must have been thirsty. Dongdong, who's usually so calm, was actually angry and frowning because of me!

This tremendous discovery filled Yang Ming with a sweet feeling, like he had eaten honey.

But as he got closer, he suddenly realized that Jiang Rendong's gaze was probably not on him.

Following the other person's gaze, he saw a face he loathed: Yu Huai.

In an instant, the sweetness in his heart vanished, replaced by endless disappointment.

After the initial disappointment came intense envy, jealousy, and hatred towards Yu Huai.

Jiang Rendong's "intense" emotional fluctuations were actually caused by Yu Huai. How could he accept this?

"Hey, are you stupid?"

Eileen reached out and waved her hand in front of Yu Huai's eyes.

This guy was staring straight ahead, but his gaze wasn't focused on anything; he looked like he had dementia.

Seeing that he didn't react at all when she waved her hand in front of him, Eileen couldn't help but want to reach out and pinch his face again.

But as soon as she reached out her hand, it was grabbed by another slender, white hand with long, neatly trimmed nails and a faint pink hue.

"Who are you."

Jiang Rendong stared directly at her, his voice low and still showing little emotion. However, the change from a question to a statement, coupled with his calm and almost cold gaze, put immense psychological pressure on Eileen.

You're hurting me~

Eileen's voice trembled; she didn't understand why she was so afraid of the woman in front of her. The woman wasn't scary at all; in fact, she even seemed somewhat enviable to Eileen.

Jiang Rendong released her hand, and Eileen immediately ran far away, no longer insisting that Yu Huai apologize.

"Mr. Jiang, hello."

Looking at Jiang Rendong, who had flown all the way from a thousand miles away to clean up his mess, Yu Huai felt a little sorry for her.

"Thank you so much for your help this time, it's really..."

"Um."

Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Rendong turned and left.

Yang Ming had been watching the two closely, and upon seeing this scene, he was overjoyed, feeling as if his shattered heart had come back to life.

I knew it! How could Dongdong possibly have any other thoughts about a pretty boy like him?

She rushed over so hastily just now because she didn't want him and Eileen to have any scandals.

After all, no matter how useless Yu Huai is, he is still the pillar who single-handedly accounts for 60% of the company's revenue, and has countless female fans.

If a scandal breaks out and causes a significant loss of fans, the company will suffer the greatest loss.

After mentally preparing a reason for Jiang Rendong, Yang Ming watched her receding figure and quickly chased after her.

"Wait for me!"

Jiang Rendong arrived just in time, but left even faster.

Yu Huai wanted to ask about the content of her closed-door meeting with Director Wang, but Feng Fu informed her that President Jiang had already left and was on his way back.

"Not even saying hello, that's rude."

Yu Huai muttered a complaint, then turned to Feng Fu and asked, "Did President Jiang tell you what conditions she and Director Wang reached?"

"One hundred million."

"Taking away the young master?!"
