Chapter 167: A Hidden Secret

“Then I’m sorry. Since you’ve chosen to enter this industry, you’ll often be forced to accept things you don’t like. I think you might get used to it, Mr. Lu. Listen to me carefully, no matter who you talk to, I won’t withdraw from this drama.”

“What do you want? Money, resources? I can give you anything. As long as you quit this drama, I can provide you with better resources.”

“I think this drama is good. I like it a lot. It’s hard to buy me off with money. You know I work with Huo Ci’s Studio, so I won’t back down when it comes to this.”

Lu Xuanzhi’s expression remained unchanged, but his chest heaved slightly as he gritted his teeth. “Don’t force my hand!”

“Let me guess why you are in such a hurry to make me withdraw. Is it because you’re afraid of your financier finding out about our relationship and kicking you out?” Ling Sheng spoke casually, each word striking his heart.

“Ling Sheng!” Lu Xianzhi was finally angry.

He looked at the girl in front of him, who was confident and arrogant and was exuding an intoxicating charm.

He was a little comforted, but also a little bitter. The timid girl who had been hiding behind him had finally transformed into a tall, slender, confident, beautiful swan.

“Did I guess correctly? Are you embarrassed?” Ling Sheng laughed out loud as she looked at the man, who had finally shown his anger. She then added, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely keep this a secret. I won’t spout nonsense, let alone let your financier know.”

It was impossible for her to withdraw because of that ridiculous reason!

“You can think whatever you want.” Lu Xianzhi only wanted her to withdraw. “This movie will not allow you to gain fame and wealth. Due to the issue of the theme, even the screening may pose a problem. Why do you insist on filming it?”

“What about you? Why did you come here?” Ling Sheng’s lips curled up coldly as she looked at him. “Ji Yan, that’s not right. Lu Xianzhi, since you know this, why did you come here again? It’s all because you’ve taken a liking to this small film. Neither of us is better than the other.”

Ling Sheng had to admit that she was not a saint, but she was not as ambitious as Pu Sheng. Besides liking this script a lot, she also wanted more people to see other things in the world except for beauty and darkness. Many people lived in the twisted hell of human nature.

There was also another reason.

This kind of small-scale film was a favorite of the major film festivals. As long as it was filmed well, it would leave a deep impression. It would be extremely easy for this film to win a big prize.

“I came here for my own reasons.” Lu Xianzhi tried his best to calm down and talk to her nicely.

“Then can I ask why you are insisting on me quitting this movie?” Ling Sheng calmed down. “What’s so hard for you to say?”

“Didn’t you already say what I wanted to say?” Lu Xianzhi sneered and looked away, trying his best not to meet her eyes.

Her gaze was too clear, making one unable to hide their thoughts from her eyes.

He did not want to see his ugly self in her eyes.

Why?

She might get into trouble because of this film.

Even if she thought he was unscrupulous and hated him for it, he could not let her be the female lead.

Before being replaced, the female lead of this drama, Zhang Jia, had suffered an accident during filming and had been raped. Although the investors had covered up the scandal, the accident had suddenly been exposed after the film’s release. The female lead had been unable to take the blow of public opinion and had committed suicide.
