Lin Yue leaned his back on the sofa and crossed his legs leisurely. After he got comfortable, he sneered and said, “Meng Xun came to me and made an agreement with me. She said if I give Ji Qingqing the second female lead role, then Ji Qingqing will pay me half a million yuan and accompany me for a night. This is how your girlfriend received her current role. Did you know about our agreement?”
Ji Qingqing believed that parts of Lin Yue’s story were probably true, but the deal didn’t have much to do with Ji Qingqing.
After all, before the original Ji Qingqing had gotten the second female lead role, she was already in a relationship with Gu Shaoyu. She took her relationship with Gu Shaoyu seriously and treated him sincerely as her boyfriend. The original Ji Qingqing had decided not to cause another scandal related to herself in the entertainment industry after meeting Gu Shaoyu. So why would she promise to accompany Lin Yue for a night just for the role of a second female lead?
Ji Qingqing believed that there was an inside story to all of this.
But he came looking for her in the middle of the night…it can also be said that her financial backer came knocking at her door to make her fulfill their contract. He wanted her to sleep with him. Will Lu Lixing believe that she was cheating on him?
“Come here.” Lu Lixing turned around and looked at her.
Ji Qingqing was lacking in confidence for a moment, but she soon realized that she was being unnecessarily afraid. The truth of the matter was not certain yet. Since Lin Yue sprouted nonsense, she can defend herself by talking back.
Ji Qingqing walked up to Lu Lixing in a confident manner and looked down at Deputy Director Lin before she said, “Deputy Director Lin, you are truly deserving of your title as the deputy director. You are very creative at making things up.”
“What do you mean?”
Ji Qing sat down next to Lu Lixing and righteously said, “I think you know exactly what I meant by that. Do you have any evidence proving what you had just said to my boyfriend?”
Deputy Director Lin was so angry that he slapped the table in anger and stood up, “Are you trying to burn the bridge after crossing the river without admitting it?”
Ji Qingqing shrank back in fear, turned around, and looked at Lu Lixing with grievances in her eyes. She pulled out all her acting skills to use and said, “Hubby, don’t believe the nonsense he’s spouting. We’ve been together for a while now, so you should know that I’m not the type of person who would do something like that. I’m not the type of woman that would sell my body to gain a firmer footing in the entertainment industry!”
——“Life value +1, Host currently has seven hours to live.”
Lu Lixing frowned and said, “Speak properly.”
Ji Qingqing coughed lightly and said, “I didn’t do it.”
Deputy Director Lin was not a pushover. He had been in the entertainment industry for a long time, so he knew the unwritten rules of the entertainment circle and how things worked in the industry.
How could he complete his end of the deal when he hadn’t slept with her yet?
“You never did it? I still have the bank card that Meng Xun had given me, so don’t even think about wiggle your way out of this!”
Lu Lixing looked at him, “So what?”
Lin Yue sneered, “Ji Qingqing, I will be clear on this matter with you. I don’t want to bother with this deal nor am I interested in your body anymore. I’ll admit that I’ve suffered a loss in this deal, but if you want to keep your role as the second female lead, then you will have to send me another half-million yuan. Otherwise, I will make sure you will be sent packing tomorrow!”
Ji Qingqing rolled his eyes at him.
He was merely a deputy director, yet he still dared to talk so arrogantly in front of her husband. Did he think that her husband was a vegetarian?
She cleared her throat and said, “Deputy Director Lin, I think everyone might have misunderstood this matter. I never told my former agent, Meng Xun, to look for you and make a deal with you. I didn’t tell her that I will be paying you half a million yuan and spend a night with you to get the role.”
“A misunderstanding? Then why didn’t you speak up and say that it’s a misunderstanding when you received the role? Did you believe that you can receive this role based on your ability? Since your boyfriend is present too, then I won’t be dallying around anymore. Pay me one million yuan, not one penny less if you wish to have this role.” He looked at Lu Lixing arrogant and mockingly, “If your boyfriend believes that one night with you cost less than one million yuan, then we can forget about the deal.”
“One million yuan? Deputy Director Li, do you believe that I will sue you for blackmailing me?” Ji Qingqing snorted, “You have been in the entertainment industry for many years, although you have yet to make a name for yourself, you should have at least some pride. Are you willing to abandon all your pride to receive one million yuan from me?”
“Sue me for blackmail? Miss Ji, I’m different from you because our career paths are different. I’m just a deputy director, but you’re an actress. Wouldn’t the lawsuit ruin your career in the entertainment circle?”
As soon as he finished peaking, Ji Qingqing’s phone rang. When she picked it up, she saw that the caller was Qin Yue.
Qin Yue heard from assistant Wen Rou that Lu Lixing came here, so he rushed here immediately.
