Chapter 251 - I’ll Beat You Up If You Cry Again
Chapter 251: Chapter 251: I’ll Beat You Up If You Cry Again
Liu Ran was indeed rather popular as many members of the crew liked her.
On the contrary, many artists had been a bit afraid of her since the news of her fighting a group of people abroad came to light.
After taking the final still, Liu Ran waved her sleeve and said, “It’s fate that we have met. Dinner tonight is on me, how about we have some imperial cuisine?”
“Imperial cuisine? That must be expensive. Money is hard to earn, let’s just go eat barbecued meat or something.”
Liu Ran smiled gently and said, “It’s alright, I can still afford to pay for a meal of imperial cuisine.”
All of a sudden, everyone flocked to her and showered her with compliments.
Liu Ran obviously enjoyed the feeling of being adored by everyone and being in the limelight. She was looking at Yan Jinyi with arrogance and contempt.
Yan Jinyi had an indifferent expression and was just about to leave when Liu Ran suddenly stopped her.
“Jinyi, shall we go together? I heard from Zhuang Heng that you like imperial cuisine very much. Zhuang Heng admires you very much!”
Xu Xiaoshan knew that Liu Ran had always liked Zhuang Heng. Hearing her words, she hurriedly sucked up to her. “I really envy Sister Liu Ran for having such a close friendship with Zhuang Heng. If only the two of you are together.”
Another actress chimed in, “Yes, Sister Liu Ran and Zhuang Heng are a match made in heaven. Zhuang Heng even confessed his love for Sister Liu Ran previously, didn’t he?”
Liu Ran said shyly, “Enough, enough, cut it out. It’s not that exaggerated, Zhuang Heng and I are just friends.”
“Just friends? Boyfriend and girlfriend?”
“I heard that someone is always scamming Zhuang Heng and trying to be in the same show as Zhuang Heng just because she cooperated with him in the same movie. She’s really disgusting.”
“Exactly…”
The few of them made sarcastic remarks for a long while and would glance at Yan Jinyi from time to time.
Yan Jinyi touched her nose and thought, ‘Are they putting on a show together?’
“Director Chen, I’ll get going first.”
“Jinyi, are you sure you don’t want to come with us? It’s our first get-together, if you don’t go, will it make others feel…” Liu Ran hesitated to speak, seemingly trying to think of a better word. “Will it make others feel that you can’t fit in with everyone?”
‘If she wants to say that I’m an outcast, she can just say so. Why must she beat around the bush?’
“Even if I’m an outcast, it has nothing to do with you, don’t be nosy.”
“Jinyi, that’s not what I meant, I just want the crew to get along well with each other. After all, we will be spending the next few months together.”
Liu Ran bit her lower lip, as if she was about to cry.
Yan Jinyi immediately flared up and stared at Liu Ran with a hand on her waist. “Am I particularly prone to encountering pretentious bitches or what? Stop putting on such an expression, that trick doesn’t work on me. Are you crying? Keep crying and see if I’ll beat you up.”
Liu Ran’s slender body shuddered and she muttered, “I just…”
Yan Jinyi clenched her fists and was about to charge towards Liu Ran but a group of people hurriedly surrounded her.
Xu Xiaoshan stood in front of Liu Ran and barked, “How dare you hit Liu Ran? Liu Ran, you’re so arrogant!”
Yan Jinyi spread her palm open and patted Xu Xiaoshan’s face with great force. “Stop being so arrogant, we’re all getting along well and fine in the crew. Don’t provoke me. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being hostile to you!”
After saying that, she smiled sinisterly and winked at everyone else. She then turned around and left.
Xu Xiaoshan covered her face, somehow feeling humiliated.
“Xiaoshan, Jinyi is just hot tempered, don’t mind me. Let’s go for a meal.”
Liu Ran took the initiative to link arms with Xu Xiaoshan and suddenly leaned closer to her. “Xiaoshan, I heard that your cousin is the boss of Shenyang Vocational School Union and he’s really impressive.”
Xu Xiaoshan immediately looked proud and exclaimed, “My cousin is a Taekwondo provincial champion, and when I was in college, no one dared to bully me because I had my cousin’s protection!”
