Ran Xueyi stood in front of the door and sighed. "Director Zheng shouldn't speak so badly."
"Speak badly? I am rely telling the truth that you're hiding from everyone." Director Zheng stood a step closer, his entire body was almost glued to the door as he glared with his eyes full of disgust. "Don't think I don't know what you did. You must have approached President Song and seduced him to bed. Why can't you do the sa for ?"
"I may be a bit older, but I can assure you that I can be better to you than President Song."
"As for the benefits you'll get from ... It should be enough for you to stay in the set peacefully."
By this ti, Ran Xueyi's hand on the doorknob was turning white from how much force she exerted to wrap her hand around it. It was the only thing she could do to keep herself under control.
And yet, the other was being too rude and disgusting with his words.
Ran Xueyi's eyes darkened in an instant and before she could snap at Director Zheng, a voice rang in the corridor. "Director Zheng? What are you doing here?"
Director Zheng paused and faced the person who ca to stand behind him. "What great timing you have, Producer Luo."
Producer Luo frowned. "What?"
Director Zheng looked at Producer Luo for a second before his eyes lit up in a strange way. He suddenly blurted out, "Ah... Is Producer Luo here to et with Miss Ran?"
Producer Luo didn't expect that the others would know that he was indeed there to find Ran Xueyi to call her down to the cafeteria where so of the crew were waiting for him so they could start eating. He wanted to find Ran Xueyi to apologize to her personally for the mistake the crew made earlier that day and also to arrange soone to be her temporary assistant so she could proceed with filming the drama without any problem.
However, he didn't expect that Director Zheng, whom he had just recently scolded and had so heated argunts with earlier, was now standing in front of Ran Xueyi's door.
Not thinking too much, Producer Luo nodded his head and said yes to the other.
But who could have expected that once he nodded, Director Zheng would suddenly burst into laughter.
"What's making you laugh? Director Zheng, are you drunk?"
As Producer Luo said this, he got a whiff of the alcohol in Director Zheng's body and his expression sank.
"Why did you drink alcohol? What would you do if you arrived late tomorrow?!" Producer Luo was now injected with a mouthful of anger as not only was Director Zheng not repenting from his mistakes, he was actually drinking and ignoring his words!
Director Zheng avoided Producer Luo's hands that were about to grab so he could help him stay upright. He planted himself in front of the door and laughed boisterously.
"Ha! Why are you talking so righteously when you're here for the sa reason as why I am here? Producer Luo, there's really no need to hide it from . Although this will be my first to share, we can still enjoy the taste of a woman together!"
"Director Zheng!" Producer Luo was startled by Director Zheng's words and looked around him for a second. After checking that nobody around heard what Director Zheng had just said, he refocused his attention to the drunk man and angrily stared at the other.
Just what was happening to him? Why is Director Zheng acting like this now?
"Speak clearly and don't ss with right now. I don't want to hear any nonsense coming out of your dirty mouth," said Producer Luo while shooting lasers from his eyes. "What the hell happened to you during these past few weeks when I wasn't in the country?"
Inside the room, Ran Xueyi heard the two n speaking and relaxed slightly when she recognized Producer Luo's voice. She wasn't familiar with Producer Luo, but hearing him confronting Director Zheng, it was clear to say that he wasn't pleased with what the latter was doing.
Previously, when she heard his voice and saw that they were not on the sa side, she wanted to co out and clear things up so that Producer Luo wouldn't assu that she and Director Zheng had sothing to do with each other.
But thankfully, the producer didn't think ssily like other people would and targeted Director Zheng instantly.
Director Zheng was slightly stunned when he heard the others questioning him about what happened. He couldn't speak for a while and he also didn't know where to start. Perhaps, he really couldn't really bring himself to say anything and was too embarrassed to say it, so he redirected and changed the topic back to Ran Xueyi.
Ran Xueyi, who wanted to gossip and overhear their discussion: "..."
Director Zheng banged his fist on the door and coldly scoffed. "There's nothing for to say. I don't have the appetite to enjoy having a wild night with you guys. I'll go ahead and try next ti when I'm a bit clear headed."
Producer Luo stared at his back and sighed.
Once Director Zheng disappeared, he planned to go back to his room instead of calling Ran Xueyi down to the lounge area, but as he took a step forward, he noticed through the corners of his eye that the door to her room was open and she was looking at him.
"You..." He was surprised to see her. "How long have you been standing there? No... did you and Director Zheng talk before I ca here?"
Ran Xueyi nodded then shook her head. "I just finished showering when I heard the door being knocked. When I opened the door, I saw Director Zheng outside and he started to lash out at ."
Producer Luo stared at her and knew that she was telling the truth. Rembering Director Zheng's harsh and crude words earlier, he couldn't help but apologize to her again.
"I'm really sorry for what happened earlier this morning. I didn't know that Director Zheng would do sothing like that towards the female lead of the drama. I already talked to him, but I also didn't think that he would go and look for you." Producer Luo bowed his head lower and he genuinely felt that they were in the wrong.
Ran Xueyi saw that the other was very sincere with his words and also couldn't bla an innocent person for what Director Zheng did to her. Anyway, she accepted Producer Luo's apology.
Producer Luo: "There will be a welcoming party downstairs. We reserved the restaurant on the lower floor. If you're not tired and hungry, you can go down and eat with us."
Ran Xueyi told him that she would go down once she's done changing.
Closing the door to her hotel room with a soft click, the friendly smile that she had shown to Producer Luo was wiped off and replaced by a cold curve of her lips.
Producer Luo apologized to her on behalf of the crew and another person's mistake. But the person whom she forgave was only Producer Luo and the people who were clearly innocent.
As for Director Zheng...
Ran Xueyi rembered how he continued to throw filthy and malicious words at her without knowing anything. How could she forgive him so easily like that? What gave him such privilege to be forgiven just because he knew his mistakes? If only Producer Luo hadn't arrived, she would have beaten him up until his mother could no longer recognize his face.
She walked back into her room and reached for her phone. She dialed Wu Qi's number and waited for him to answer her call.
A few rings later, the call connected to Wu Qi's voice from the other side.
"Miss Ran?"
"Wu Qi, I want you to do sothing for ." Ran Xueyi calmly tapped her fingers on the window glass in front of her. The more calm she was, the more the fire in her chest was burning. "I want you to send every detail about a person nad Zheng Hua. Give everything about him. That includes, what he has been doing these past few weeks, where he went, and who he t with."
Wu Qi perceived that sothing was off just from her tone and imdiately said, "Alright, I'll do everything you said and will check it now."
"How long do you think it will take?"
"Probably an hour or two."
Surprisingly, it was that easy and quick to get what she wanted. This slightly fanned out so of her anger.
After hanging up their call, Ran Xueyi put the phone down but paused when she noticed that there was a missed call. She checked who it was and found that it was Song Yu Han and it appeared that the ti he called her was around the sa ti she saw Director Zheng standing by her door and because of that, she couldn't answer his calls.
As she was thinking of calling him back, a ssage was sent.
[YH: Are you busy? Don't worry about my call. I was just calling because I missed you.]
[YH: Goodnight.]
Ran Xueyi stared at his last ssage and smiled. She wanted to call him back but saw that it was already nine in the evening. Usually, he would be in a video conference eting at this hour so she decided not to call him and instead, sent him a reply.
[Snowrabbit: Soone ca to knock on my door so I couldn't answer your call.]
[Snowrabbit: I miss you too.]
[Snowrabbit: I love you.]
Then, she sent a voicemail and said goodnight to him.
By the ti Song Yu Han saw her replies, it was already 1 in the morning. He had just finished taking a shower after several hours of eting with the executives from the other branches of his company.
After repeatedly playing her voice mail containing her voice saying goodnight to him, he finally replied with a voice mail as well.
Song Yu Han: "I love you more."
