Before the car could arrive, Jun s.h.i.+yan called. Ling Sheng huddled in a small corner sweetly and spoke to him softly.

Even Xiaxia, who had a sweet voice, felt envious when she saw this. Could you stop having public displays of affection? Can't you be more humane?

“Yes, I might be drinking today. Can you come and fetch me?”

“Okay, but can't you not drink?”

“You don't know what this kind of occasion is like. One can't refuse to drink alcohol. What time is your flight? We'll start at seven o'clock. The earliest it can end is ten o'clock!”

“I'll rush back as soon as possible. You're not allowed to leave with someone else when you're drunk, understand?”

“I'm not a fool.”

“Really?”

“Last time doesn't count. You're not someone else.”

“Okay, I understand. You won't leave with anyone else, right?”

“Yes, yes. I can only leave with you. Even though I'm a fool, I'll wait for you to fetch me home.”

Ling Sheng hung up the phone with a sweet smile on her face. Upon noticing Xiaxia's ambiguous gaze, she let out a low cough hurriedly, pretending to be serious. “You can't drink like the other day. If it weren't for me, you would have been kidnapped. Do you know that?”

Xiaxia nodded vigorously and mimicked her sweet tone. “Yes, I understand. I'm not an idiot.”

Ling Sheng, who was annoyed, tickled her. “How dare you mimic me! How dare you!”

Xiaxia laughed until she was out of breath. Then, she imitated her tone and the two girls quarreled.

The seats had been arranged by the organizers according to the number of chairs they had. Each seat had a name. When Ling Sheng sat down, there were three empty seats between her and Xiaxia. Judging from the names on them, they should be reserved for the investors.

On Ling Sheng's left was the name “Zhao Hong”. She was the biggest investor of the movie and Lu Xianzhi's financier.

On Zhao Hong's left was Lu Xianzhi.

All the relevant film crew members had arrived. The director, a.s.sistant director, producer, and main actors had all been seated. Only the investors and Lu Xianzhi were left.

“Sister Hong.” Upon seeing her enter, Yi Jinrong stood up first and greeted her with a smile. The others also stood up to welcome her.

Ling Sheng went over to make small talk as well. Standing in front of the group was an old woman. She looked impressive, as she was placed on a pedestal by everyone around her. Beside her was Lu Xianzhi. The flattering middle-aged men behind her were also investors.

Clearly, the old woman was a bigshot. Everyone was afraid of her, so they had to treat her with respect.

When Xiaxia had described the old monster, she had wondered what she looked like. A snake spirit? However, when she saw the woman with her own eyes, she did not think she was that scary. It was just that her face had stiffened from plastic surgery. Her ears had changed, and her thick makeup was a little glaring.

Yi Jinrong introduced Ling Sheng to Zhao Hong. “Sister Hong, this is the female lead of our movie, Ling Sheng. She's very energetic. She caused a commotion some time ago, and I didn't get the chance to introduce you to her.”

“Not bad. She's really pretty.” Zhao Hong smiled and nodded. The muscles on her face moved one by one, but her eyes were especially sharp and astute. She scanned her face.

Ling Sheng, who was a member of Huo Ci's Studio, had been involved in a scandal with him and was the Third Master's woman. She was a little vixen who knew how to seduce men.

Ling Sheng smiled politely and humbly. “Thank you for the compliment, Sister Hong. I'll definitely work hard to perform well.”

The eyes of the woman in front of her had a triangular shape due to excessive plastic surgery. Her eyelids were layered, but she had very long fake eyelashes. She also had very thick eye makeup, which made her look even stranger.
