“Tianya…” Guan Meiyi pulled down her trousers and looked at Ling Tianya with teary eyes. “I’m not worth it. I used to treat you like that…”
“This is not for you, it’s for my work.” Ling Tianya turned her head away from Guan Meiyi. “If you are not competent, I will be the first one to ask for a substitution. So, you should go back and study the script well.”
With that, Guan Meiyi didn’t feel like saying anything else. The only thing she could do now was to live up to Ling Tianya’s faith in her.
“And,” Ling Tianya continued, “you are not Guan Meiyi right now, I hope that when I see you again, you have found your shameless confidence once more.”
Guan Meiyi didn’t know what to say. Who would call it shameless confidence? Even if it was meant to be motivating, you wouldn’t say it like that.
Regardless of that, Guan Meiyi was happy. She grinned. “Okay, I will try.”
The swelling to Guan Meiyi’s knees got worse and worse. In the end, she couldn’t walk normally and was carried out by Small One.
“That Shan Feifei was really malicious. It was a marble floor and Guan Meiyi was carrying heavy things in her hand. She fell straight on her knees, which could be broken. And then Shan Feifei jumped up and made the accusation first. Ms Ling, I feel that you could have stepped on her foot harder!” Zhang Ke said indignantly.
Ling Tianya looked at Zhang Ke but ignored her. They had arrived at the conference room for their meeting. The secretary at the door saw Ling Tianya and showed her in politely.
In the conference room, Bai Guanghui and the creative team of Wonderland were all sitting inside, together with several other high-level executives of Zhiya Entertainment.
Seeing such a big entourage, Ling Tianya walked in with a big smile on her face. The secretary led her to an empty seat and she sat down.
“Go get Ms. Ling a cup of coffee.” Bai Guanghui directed the secretary.
“That won’t be necessary. I can’t drink coffee when I am pregnant.” Ling Tianya rejected Bai Guanghui’s fake politeness. She then said directly, “Everyone is busy, so why don’t we go straight down to business.”
Bai Guanghui chuckled at Ling Tianya’s directness. “That’s right. Pregnant women should not drink coffee. You probably should rest more.”
Ling Tianya looked at Bai Guanghui and smiled without saying anything. She waited for them to speak first.
Director Kong took out the contract they had signed with Ling Tianya and pointed to a clause in it. “Since Ms. Ling doesn’t want to waste time, I’ll cut to the chase. When you signed the contract with us, there was a clause in it that says if you affect the production of the film because of personal reasons, we have the right to ask you to remove yourself from the core creative team.”
“So?” Ling Tianya raised an eyebrow.
The Director Kong was taken aback by the fact that Ling Tianya didn’t seem surprised at all. He continued. “For a while now, you seem to have been on the cusp of public opinion. We don’t need mention the previous reason, but yesterday it was because of Shan Feifei’s Weibo post. Of course, it was Shan Feifei’s personal conduct and the company was unaware of it. In short, now you have severely affected the production of the film. So for the sake of each party’s interest, but also based on the contract, we now have the right to ask you to withdraw from the core creative team.”
Ling Tianya stared at Director Kong as if she could see through his soul, making Director Kong very uncomfortable.
Bai Guanghui spoke up as well. “We at Zhiya Entertainment really admire Ms Ling’s work, and we want to bring this novel to the big screen with great sincerity. Ms Ling, you are not part of the Zhiya Entertainment company, and we were generous with you when we signed the contract. So, I think it’s better that we part ways in a civil manner and do what’s best for the film. Don’t you agree?”
