“No.” Yan Huan nodded, she would do what she promised. Furthermore, her three children would have grown six months later. Then, she could participate in the filming. It would not affect anything.
In short, she would not let Lu Qin borrow her name to do anything, at all. Besides, she did not request to play the star. If she was a supporting actress, she would have fewer scenes and could go straight home after finishing them.
The new was constantly replacing the old and time was no longer on her side. The world now belonged to the younger generation while her fame had expired. She was even a mother with children now.
“What?” Lu Qin roared as he stood up.
“You mean, Linlang is unwilling to cooperate with us? Didn’t we agree to it?” Linlang’s script had always been known for its high ratings. Furthermore, this drama had more than 100 episodes and featured famous figures in the entire entertainment industry. Thus, as long as he was able to get a role in this series, he would be able to gain more fans. Besides, he had also done various preparations for this. However, he was just told that Linlang was reluctant to work with him.
Yet, this should not be possible, because he was personally requested by Sun Yuhan to be the leading actor. Since the Sun family was one of the shareholders of Linlang, she could surely make Linlang agree to her terms.
“Yes, they refused.” Lu Qin’s manager was helpless too.
Yes, Linlang rejected him completely.
“Why?” Lu Qin sat down and clenched his fingers that were placed on the table. His patience had reached its limit and his eyes were blazing with suppressed anger.
They said he was unsuitable for the role, so the manager simply conveyed the message he got from Linlang.
Linlang may be an emerging company, but it possessed a lot of financial resources and influential individuals backing them. In addition to that, they had been producing many high-quality films, hence they had a prominent place in the industry.
The phrase ‘they said it was unsuitable’ simply meant what it said. No matter what kind of reasons it was, the answer was still the same.
“Not suitable?” Lu Qin sneered, “They want to kick me off, but do they have the ability to do that?”
The manager was about to voice something, but he merely kept his mouth shut in the end, because Lu Qin had already fished out his phone to make a call.
Soon after, Sun Yuhan made a flashy entrance at Linlang Tower. She had arrived in a set of branded suits and an extremely luxurious handbag, adorned by expensive accessories and glittering jewellery.
She seemed less like a human being, and more like a moving jewellery box. Is she not afraid of being robbed venturing out like this?
She took off her sunglasses and headed directly into Luo Lin’s office, ignoring the surrounding onlookers as if she was in her own backyard. Perhaps to her, this was her family’s backyard. She could come and go as she pleased, without even knocking.
“Hello, Miss Sun,” Luo Lin smilingly greeted the woman in front of her. She seemingly knew that Sun Yuhan would come. Of course, everyone understood the reason Sun Yuhan came today.
Sun Yuhan sat down and set her luxury handbag aside, before leaning forward slightly.
“Tell me the reason.”
“The reason?” Luo Lin acted as if she did not understand. I don’t know what Miss Sun was talking about. “Reason, what reason?”
Sun Yuhan took the documents on Luo Lin’s table and tore it in half. However, Luo Lin was still beaming. The documents can be copied again after it was destroyed, so feel free to tear them.
After tearing a few sheets, Sun Yuhan flung her hand, scattering the shredded paper everywhere.
“Luo Lin, don’t you play the fool. Did you remove Lu Qin from the role?”
“No.” Luo Lin felt that she was falsely accused and replied, “It was a decision made by the company and not me. Besides, I don’t have that much power.”
“Why?” Sun Yuhan leaned back on her chair. No one could have thought that this ostentatious woman with delicate makeup and lavish accessories, was an unfashionable and sad woman back then. Previously, she was a fashion abomination who lived in a 10-square-meter dojo and a bumpkin that dined next to the toilet. Her previous job’s salary was roughly 1,000 dollars, which was only enough for her to feed herself. She was so poor that she always worried about not having enough money for food.
Now, she spent her money generously and the price of objects meant nothing to her. She would purchase anything she wanted. Even if she discarded the items after buying them, it would not matter to her.
Luo Lin continued to smile, but it seemed forced and was too deliberate. It was unlike the sincerity that she had when she was with Yan Huan. She could tease, crack some random jokes, or even get physical and pinch Yan Huan’s face to harass the famous Best Actress Yan.
However, she did not want to pinch the woman in front of her, even if she could.
One could not help but wonder how much powder was applied on Sun Yuhan’s face. Although the powder may have hidden the blemishes and made her facial features more prominent, the color shading of her makeup was too excessive. Luo Qin felt that the thick layer of cement-like powder would suffocate Sun Yuhan’s face. Perhaps, even Lu Qin had forgotten how Sun Yuhan previously looked like.
As for the reason, she merely gave the same answer.
“Unsuitable.”
Yes, that was the word, unsuitable.
“Unsuitable?” Sun Yuhan honestly thought that it was a ridiculous reason and scoffed, “Tell me which part isn’t suitable and which part isn’t right. I’m the leading actress and he’s the leading actor. We have a lot of experience working together and we have also prepared ourselves fully for this series. So, you are going to spout these nonsensical reasons, saying that the unsuitable ones are disqualified, to kick people out?”
She stood up and slammed her hand on Luo Lin’s desk, threatening, “Luo Lin, let me tell you this. Lu Qin has to be the lead actor. Otherwise, without him as the lead actor, you’ll have to find yourself another lead actress.”
When she finished speaking, she took her bag and left, without looking back.
Luo Lin looked at Sun Yuhan’s back and her expression changed slightly. Hehe… However, she still had the odd expression on her face.
“Is this a threat?”
She took up her phone to make a call and shortly after, the phone went through.
“Eee… Eee…”
The mellow voice of a baby came from the phone, and it instantly softened Luo Lin’s heart. Her heart melted like an iceberg under bright sunlight, or a cotton candy that met the air, the softness was simply beyond words.
“Eee…”
Little Xunxun held the phone and murmured to the receiver in his baby language. Despite it, the person on the other side could still understand him.
