FMLRWS Chapter 551

“One million? You think you can just brush me off with that?” Luo Xi scoffed.

Sometimes, it was true that trouble came knocking that you just couldn’t avoid.

“What? Is it too little? Who do you think you are? This much money is already a favor to you. Don’t be so shameless.” Chu Xun immediately became angry upon seeing her attitude.

“So investors are so impressive, speaking so grandly. I’m curious, how much did you invest?” Luo Xi raised an eyebrow.

“What’s the point of telling you? You’ll never earn that much money in your lifetime anyway!” Chu Xun shot back disdainfully.

“Really? What kind of investment needs tens of billions?” Luo Xi gave her a half-smile.

Chu Xun was momentarily taken aback, then quickly reacted, her face turning red with anger. “What do you mean by that?”

“You said I’ll never earn the investment money in my lifetime. I’m just curious, since my only advantage is that I have money and don’t understand investments. Why would I never earn it? Why don’t you enlighten me, Miss Chu?” Luo Xi blinked and asked playfully.

“You, why are you pretending to be rich?”

Chu Xun was furious upon hearing this.

If this woman had money, why would she commit herself to act in such a small web drama?

What a pretender!

With this thought, she couldn’t help but sneer, “I think you’re just pretending. You can’t even afford to treat everyone to a cup of milk tea when you came to the crew, and here you are acting like a rich person. I’ve seen many people like you. They think they are so glorious on the outside, but I don’t know how pitiful they are behind the scenes!”

“At least I’m not someone who brags about my dad being Li Gang.” Luo Xi laughed sarcastically!

“You!”

Chu Xun felt insulted by her words, and her face flushed with rage.

Seeing the confrontation escalating, the director beside them quickly intervened, “Ladies, please don’t fight. Let’s talk this over calmly. We’re all friends in the same crew. Why make it hard for each other?”

“Hmph! What’s there to talk about? I, Chu Xun, want the role of the female lead. This woman should pack her bags and leave immediately, or I’ll have my dad withdraw the investment. Let’s see if you can still keep this production going.”

Chu Xun said angrily.

Initially, she just wanted the female lead role and for this woman to take on the third female lead role or leave. Now, she changed her mind. She wanted this woman to disappear entirely from the entertainment industry!

Director Zhou’s expression turned dark.

“Oh my god, what should we do? This is bad. Miss Luo is definitely going to be replaced.”

“Right? It’s such a pity. I think Miss Luo’s look is cool. It would be a huge loss to replace her.”

“Yeah, that’s right. Without Miss Luo, this web series won’t have any popularity. Whether it can succeed in the future is still questionable.”

“I say, this Chu Xun can’t even act. She’s been NG’d several times just standing there as a background!”

“True…”

Although the discussions were quiet, Chu Xun still heard them. She was so angry that her face turned red.

Director Zhou was in a dilemma.

This production relied heavily on the support of investors.

But if Luo Xi were replaced, he knew the drama’s performance and ratings would plummet. If they swapped in Chu Xun as the female lead, he could already see the disaster looming.

What could he do?

Thinking of this, the director said firmly, “Miss Chu can do as she pleases. Anyway, I won’t agree to change the cast. If you insist on taking the female lead role, then I won’t direct this anymore. Let your father find another director!”
