Chapter 33 - I Don’t Need Your Help (2)
The shooting of A Thousand Years of Tears was right around the corner, but Lan Jinyao was still without an Agent. Just as she was worrying about this, Fu Bainian appeared.
It seemed that in the past few days this man had been doing well. He was wearing an expensive suit, his leather shoes were clean and shiny, and the front of his hair was combed back; he was as suave as a western male model.
Upon seeing that he was doing quite well, Lan Jinyao felt somewhat displeased; this person didn’t seem to be feeling the slightest bit of guilt. Moreover, he appeared to be full of joy, so when he stood in front of her, she felt that his presence was particularly irksome.
She pretended that she didn’t see him and went to walk past him. But, the moment she passed him, her arm was caught in a tight grip.
“Chen Meimei, I’ll keep my promise! Regarding the role you want, I’ll arrange it all for you!”
So, this man had specifically found her to say this? Wasn’t he here about them getting a divorce?
Lan Jinyao grunted and shook off his hand. “There’s no need; I’m capable of doing that by myself and confident that I can obtain the role with my own abilities. What if you trick me again after you’ve helped me? What should I do then, huh?”
Ever since she’d entered the entertainment circle, things had been nothing but smooth sailing for her. However, after her rebirth, she’d experienced many stumbling blocks obstructing her path. She could ignore what others thought of her, but it was impossible for her to ignore her wounded heart. Her heart was now broken and had been shattered into a million pieces. The pain was constantly there as the wound hadn’t yet had a chance to heal.
“Chen Meimei, you’ve lost a lot of weight.”
With her nose in the air, she continued arrogantly, “Humph! I don’t need you to tell me that, I can see it myself.”
Fu Bainian said again, “You’ve also changed a lot!”
“Haha!” Lan Jinyao sneered as she continued, “Don’t flatter me. What I look like now, and how I’ll look in the future; I’m the one who knows it clearest.”
“Chen Meimei, can you not act like this? Are you even capable of getting that role by yourself? All of the roles already have candidates, and you don’t have a resume. So, why would they switch out someone who’s already been chosen?” Fu Bainian’s brows wrinkled slightly, and his tone became unfriendly.
Lan Jinyao glared at this arrogant man and said, “You’re out of your mind! Yeah, I don’t have a resume, but just wait and see! I’ll get that role.”
It was just a minor supporting role. Was it worth him personally attending to this matter?
“You...Chen Meimei, regarding our wedding, that was indeed my fault. But, at that time, Lan Xin was involved in a car accident, and I had to send her to the hospital!” His tone was somewhat helpless.
His voice sounded like it was filled with powerlessness, but, unfortunately, it would be difficult to extinguish the fire in Lan Jinyao’s heart.
She looked straight at him, and asked menacingly, “She was involved in a car accident? Did she break her hand or her leg? It doesn’t matter that you had to send her to the hospital, but why did you turn your phone off? Don’t you know that day was important? Even though it all would've been pretend, don’t you have even the tiniest sense of responsibility?”
She didn’t want to talk so harshly as such behaviour was opposite to her personality. However, she couldn’t control herself. In front of Fu Bainian, she felt that she’d become a madman who didn’t care about anything; someone who would act like a rabid dog that bit whoever came into view. Knowing this made her feel even more irritable.
Lan Jinyao didn’t want to talk to this man anymore.
However, the most irritating thing in the world was that, when you obviously didn’t want to talk to someone, that someone would delay you and prevent you from leaving. At this moment, Fu Bainian was acting exactly like this. He was so fixated on trying to explain everything clearly that Lan Jinyao figured that he just wanted to relieve his guilt.
