Huayu Tianxian: This director is such a hypocrite!

"Hiss—whoosh!"

April 3rd, 8 PM.

Ye Chong stood behind the windowsill, holding a Xuanhemen cigarette in one hand and his precious enamel mug in the other.

Outside the window, the night descended like a curtain, with a few lonely lights dotting the opposite high-rise buildings. The aroma of barbecue skewers from street stalls wafted into my nose, adding a touch of warmth and life to this lonely night.

"Why……"

With a soft sigh, he took another puff of his cigarette and then gulped down his coffee.

"We still can't set the bottom line too high, or we won't make money!"

After saying that, he took out his phone, gritted his teeth, made up his mind, and clicked send.

Hotel 403.

Yang Mi walked out of the bathroom, drying her hair. With her long legs swinging, she sat down at the table and began to apply some white, viscous liquid to her face.

"bite--"

"Huh, who would message me at this hour?"

Pick it up and take a look.

[Ye Chong: Yang Mi, come to my room for a moment.]

"Um!"

Yang Mi grabbed his phone and checked it repeatedly.

"The name is correct? What... what does this mean?"

You want to discuss the script with me? This isn't the right time to discuss the script!

Could it be?

No, no, Director Ye isn't that kind of person.

She shook her head, sat on the stool and pondered for a long time until the liquid dripped down her face and she felt a cool touch in her cleavage, which brought her back to her senses.

"Ugh! What's there to worry about? He's not going to eat me!"

Although Director Ye is quite handsome and 188cm tall, it's still no good, that's her bottom line!

"Whew—Brave Mimi, fearless of difficulties, let's go!"

……

On the fifth floor, the quiet stairwell echoed with soft footsteps. The lock on the emergency exit door turned, and a small head peeked out.

After confirming that no one was around, she lowered her pace and walked to the door of 501 in her slippers.

"Knock knock—"

As soon as he knocked on the door, Yang Mi shrank back abruptly.

Why is it so loud!

"Click—"

The door opened, and Ye Chong looked down at Yang Mi without saying much, waving her hand to let her in.

"Director Ye, I'm sorry to bother you."

"Sit down!" Ye Chong pointed to the sofa and turned to walk towards the water dispenser.

"Don't bother me, it's still early, who can sleep this early?"

Can't sleep?

Yang Mi accepted the boiled water Ye Chong brought her, nodded her thanks, and then held the cup without moving.

Can't I sleep? Is it because I'm lonely?

What about this glass of water? Is there something fishy going on?

"Yang Mi".

"what?"

Yang Mi looked up at the person opposite him.

He crossed his arms and leaned against the windowsill, looking at himself. He was wearing a white T-shirt and wide-leg trousers.

The belt was tied so tightly; it didn't look like he was going to sleep with her at all!

She gradually felt relieved.

"Yang Mi, a child star, acted in 'Tang Minghuang' and 'King of Beggars' when she was four or five years old. In 2001, she became a print model for 'Ruili' magazine. In 2003, she acted in the TV series 'Red Powder Family' and 'Double Cannon'."

Ye Chong stopped speaking because Yang Mi had already frowned and was glaring at him with a face full of resentment.

"Is it right or wrong?"

Yang Mi did not reply; her usually cute, childlike voice was now filled with a chilling intensity!

"You investigated me?"

Ye Chong shrugged.

"You can't even stand me investigating you?"

"How dare you investigate me?"

Ye Chong frowned.

"I'm just a director, I'm only checking the actors, I didn't check your taxes!"

"Forget about taxes, just say it straight. Did you call me here today to try and take advantage of me?"

Ye Chong's mouth dropped open, and his eyes nearly popped out.

This doesn't make sense, does it?

Shouldn't you be the one asking me: Why did you call me here today?

I replied to you: Look at all the works you've done, none of them have become hits. If my movie makes you famous, shouldn't you do something to show your appreciation?

Why are you jumping straight to the topic of unspoken rules?

"Speak up, are you trying to take advantage of me?"

Ye Chong snapped out of his daze, his chest heaving twice as he quickly calmed down.

He forgot that the person opposite him was a fiery young woman from the north.

"Let me be frank with you, I want to experience what it's like to be subject to unspoken rules, and then refuse them, to temper my own heart!"

He pulled out the same words he had used to talk to Sisi last time.

Anyway, she doesn't know either!

Do you think I'd believe that?

"Um?"

Ye Chong looked into the eyes of the beautiful woman opposite him, and saw only doubt and disdain.

Why don't you believe me?

Yang Mi raised his head, his voice growing even colder: "I simply don't believe you!"

"call……"

Ye Chong let out a long breath.

Why is there such a big difference? Why did Sisi trust me so much back then?

He shook his head and lifted his foot to reach for his phone on the bed, but before he could make a move, Yang Mi on the other side jumped up.

Yes, it does bounce.

"What are you doing!"

"Look, you see this? Take your phone."

Ye Chong unlocked his phone, pulled out the previous text messages, and handed them to her.

"Look, it's not just you, Zhang Yu, Pan Binlong, and Tu Er have all been to my room."

"Huh~"

Yang Mi took a step back in disgust, looked him up and down, and didn't answer the phone.

"What are you thinking! They tried to bribe me with money, and I refused!"

"Then I'll use money too!"

Yang Mi had a good plan.

You want to build willpower? Zhang Yu and his friends can use money, so can I!

"You, hiss..."

Ye Chong held his forehead; he never expected things to develop this way.

"Can!"

In the end, he agreed.

"How can I tempt you? I didn't bring any cash with me."

Ye Chong clicked his tongue and replied nonchalantly, "Just say it: Director Ye, if I give you 200,000 yuan, can you add more scenes for me?"

"..."

Yang Mi fell silent.

She suddenly felt so ashamed, like she was playing house.

It would be better to take advantage of me through unethical means!

"Director Ye?"

"uh-huh--"

Ye Chong put his hands in his pockets, looked up at the ceiling, and looked completely uncomfortable.

This time, Yang Mi was truly certain that he had no lustful thoughts.

"Director Ye, I'll give you 50,000 yuan, can you add more scenes for me?"

fifty thousand?

Ye Chong looked down at her, a hint of suspicion in his eyes.

"You think you can get rid of me with 50,000? You think you can add scenes with 50,000? You think you can bribe the director with 50,000? Which director can't withstand a test like yours!"

In the end, Ye Chong even raised his hand and pointed at Yang Mi repeatedly.

Perhaps Ye Chong's refusal was too decisive, which led to Yang Mi being taken inside as well.

She blinked, took two steps to Ye Chong, and grabbed his arm.

"But, but I only have fifty thousand, please, Director Ye."

"Hmm... let me think..."

Ye Chong nodded symbolically, about to refuse her, when suddenly his gaze fell into an abyss.

Hiss... What kind of hook is this? Is it some kind of Void Return? It actually managed to control my Fiery Eyes for five seconds?

"clatter--"

To Yang Mi's astonishment, a drop of red liquid fell to the floor with a crisp sound.

"you!!!"

"You really are a pervert!"

Yang Mi crossed her arms and turned to leave.

"Eh... Holy crap, I really have a nosebleed?"

"Bang—"

The sound of the door closing woke up countless people, but Ye Chong didn't care about such trivial matters. He took two steps to the bathroom, turned on the tap, and started splashing water on the back of his neck.

"Stop crying, stop crying! Didn't we just eat meat before we were reborn? How pathetic!"

After a minute of rain, the nosebleed finally stopped.

Looking at his disheveled reflection in the mirror, Ye Chong shook his head helplessly.

Why is it always like this? Last time they were caught for engaging in unspoken rules, and this time it's probably going to become common knowledge throughout the entire crew!

"Damn it, if you don't give me three thousand gentleman's coins, I'll slash my knife..."

[Hua Yu Zheng Jing Xian Sheng system reminder: You have once again upheld the bottom line; reward is being distributed]

[Congratulations, host, you have obtained: Acting Card (D) x1, Gentleman's Coins x400]

Current balance: 1300 Gentlemen's Coins

Ye Chong rubbed his eyes and glanced at the blue subtitles in his mind again.

"This isn't right! This is Yang Mi, and she's only worth 400 points? And what about the director's card? The reward is so poor?"

Suddenly, his expression hardened, and his two sword-like eyebrows furrowed into a deep frown.

"Could it be that I actually have feelings for her?"
