Chapter 33 – It feels like something is missing without that inner voice next to my ear

Being frightened by the sudden voice in the bathroom, Yang Qiqi and Mr. Yu naturally had no interest in continuing their actions. They waited for half an hour in the toilet. After making sure that no one would come in, they went out in despair.

They didn’t have the stomach to eat anymore. So they took the elevator directly to the underground parking lot.

“Qiqi¹FFFFFUUUUU I HATE THAT THIS BASTARD HAS THE SAME NAME AS ME(well my nickname) FFFFFFFFFF, we wouldn’t have been discovered, right?” Mr. Yu raised his hand and touched his head, his brows were wet with sweat.

Yang Qiqi glanced at him contemptuously, “Are you afraid?”

“Your husband is a lawyer. How can I not be afraid?” Mr. Yu said guiltily.

“There’s no proof. What are you even afraid of?!” Yang Qiqi didn’t care, “Someone just yelled from the outside, they didn’t know that we were the ones inside.”

Mr. Yu started his car, “That’s good then, that’s good. Let’s go back quickly.”

“That web drama…” Yang Qiqi suddenly held Mr. Yu’s hand, “You’re not going to go back on your words are you?!”

Mr. Yu immediately gave him an apologetic smile, “How could I ever regret it?!”

“My little treasure²*vomits* I feel sick. Then again this is my brother’s nickname lol, you can have any resource you want!”

Yang Qiqi curled his lips triumphantly and was about to say something else when a phone rang.

“Wait a minute. It’s Director Wang.” Mr. Yu hurriedly picked up his phone, “Hello? Does Director Wang have any instructions?!”

The voice from the phone sounded and Yang Qiqi could hear it clearly from beside Mr. Yu.

“Are you going to replace Shen Yu?” Wang Meng’s voice sounded not quite right, as if trying to suppress her anger.

“His acting skills are not good. I’m afraid it will delay the quality of this drama…” Mr. Yu replied with a smile, “We also wanted to preserve Hua Yu’s reputation, so we replaced Shen Yu with Yang Qiqi…”

He said this while looking towards the side with a complacent look on his face. He didn’t expect that Wang Meng’s next words would cause his face to change.

“Since you want to change the person, then we can just cancel the cooperation.”

“Don’t! If there’s something that needs to be discussed or if Director Wang is not satisfied with anything, just tell us and we can talk it through!”

Although Mr. Yu was a high-level executive in the company, he didn’t really have much say in this matter and his position relied entirely on his performance.

This year’s performance was already in a downturn. If this web drama was discarded again, not only will the dividends at the end of the year be greatly reduced, but his position as the manager might also be lost.

“The investor had pointed out for Shen Yu to play the leading role. But you guys wanted to replace him…” Wang Meng sneered, “What else can we talk about?”

After speaking, the phone was hung up.

Mr. Yu was a little confused.

He opened his mouth and was about to exhale when the phone rang again.

Looking down, it turned out to be the big boss. He hurriedly pressed the answer button, nodding and bowing while at it, “Boss, is there anything?”

“Switch Shen Yu back to play the role in The Path of the Jade Sword!”

“But wasn’t it said in today’s meeting that…”

“What nonsense is there to talk about?! If I ask you to change, you do it. If you can’t do this, then get out of the company!”

Mr. Yu was about to speak again when the phone was hung up again.

He had been in the entertainment industry all year round. No matter how stupid he was, he understood what was happening right now.

Someone behind Shen Yu wanted to raise him!

“Baby³Xinghe: Ughhhhh and now this disgusting man used my nickname!!!!!…” Mr. Yu turned his head obsequiously, “I’m afraid I’ll have to wrong you this time.”

Yang Qiqi narrowed his eyes, “Is that all you can do? With just a few threats, you’re giving up my opportunity to others⁴man, his face should be called the great wall of china from how thick it is?!”

“Aren’t you too useless?!”

These words weren’t that pleasant to hear and Mr. Yu’s face straightened, “I advise you to understand the situation. Even if Shen Yu can’t act in that role, it still won’t be your turn…”

“Didn’t you hear what Director Wang said? The investor had named him!”

Yang Qiqi was obviously unwilling and said fiercely, “If you don’t want to help me, I’ll expose our affair.”

Mr. Yu smiled, his expression looking sinister, “Do whatever you want…”

“Anyways, you should think about it carefully. Which one out of the two of us would suffer more?”

“After all, I’ve played with a lot of people. The one at home turns a blind eye to my affairs. But what about your husband Lin Lufei?!”

“I’m afraid he still thinks of you as an innocent little boy!”

Yang Qiqi was stunned to the point of speechlessness, staring at him and nodding strongly, “Fine! Then don’t contact me in the future!”

Throwing this sentence, he opened the car door angrily and fell flat on the ground.

In the end, Mr. Yu didn’t even help him and just drove away directly.

For him, a male plaything was far less important than his career. When it was time to throw him away, his head wouldn’t be under water⁵Xinghe said footnote here. Well it means ur head is filled with nothing but water. No brain no thoughts. LIKE ME.

Shen Yu went back to the villa to pack his things and join the film crew.

During this period, he received a call from Qin Yuheng asking him what method he used to get the role of the protagonist back.

Of course Shen Yu refused to say it. After all, it was hard to admit that he had begged that Dog man for it.

“Maybe because I’m too charismatic that Director Wang fell in love with my acting skills!”

“They refused to replace me!”

Qin Yuheng, “Don’t you have any face?! With your poor acting skills? There are still animated stickers of you on Weibo!”

Shen Yu knew of those animated stickers. Those of him with his eyes wide open, stiff expression, crying out to not leave.

“Qin-jie, that’s all in the past. When you come to visit me in the crew, I’ll show you what it means to have Oscar worthy acting skills!”

Qin Yuheng smiled, “I can’t afford to see such a person…”

“However, you really have to work hard. Don’t waste your opportunities like before!”

Shen Yu bowed his head while talking on the phone, “I promise to complete my task.”

Mr. Feng, who got off work, unconsciously returned to the villa.

Seeing the empty living room, he was stunned for a few seconds. He then sat on the sofa with a lonely expression.

Without Shen Yu’s noisy inner voice, he always felt that something was missing. Everything around him became dim and dull…

Feng SiRui took out his mobile phone and called his secretary, who answered him almost immediately, “Boss Feng, is there anything you need me to do?”

“Help me find a way…” Feng SiRui said in a deep voice, “Find out a way for me to justifiably enter the film crew.”

The secretary was taken aback, “Why are you joining the film crew?!”

Feng SiRui frowned, “You just need to think of a way. Don’t ask too many questions!”

The secretary who was reprimanded felt a little aggrieved, but was still conscientious, “I think that there are 3 ways to do so…”

“First is to be the director or a staff member…”

“Second is to be a celebrity…”

“Third is to be an investor.”

Feng SiRui found the last suggestion feasible, “Investor?”

The secretary continued to explain, “As an investor, you have the right to supervise the quality of the work you are investing in. You can often visit and guide the crew.”

Feng SiRui thought that this method was quite feasible and said, “Immediately contact the director of The Path of the Jade Sword and tell them that our Feng Group will invest 50 million to become the largest investor.”

‘If it is not enough, then increase it to 100 million.’

The person on the other end of the phone was shocked, “Boss Feng, are you sure?!”

“Isn’t The Path of the Jade Sword just a web drama? You don’t need to invest 50 million right?!”

Even if you have money and you want to support your wife, you can’t just act without using your brain!

The secretary didn’t even realise that he had used the sentence, ‘act without using his brain’.

However, Feng SiRui had made up his mind, “No more nonsense. If there’s anything else, you can go directly to the financial department to settle your salary tomorrow.”

After he finished saying those harsh words, he hung up the phone.

Ten minutes later, the secretary called him back with an extremely nervous voice, “Boss Feng, their side said…”

“They don’t want to accept any investment.”

Merry Christmas everyone~ 

Lemme just say… By the time this chapter is up I’ll be in a mall with my nephew and grandma~ 

If you see a really short and ghostly pale Chinese girl in all black and flipflops walking with a grandma and a really chubby toddler, that’s probably me~ 

If you can find me, I’ll pay for your lunch and dinner~
