Yan Tang was extremely surprised by Su Yan’s arrival. He quickly shouted ‘Cut’ to the actors before running to Su Yan. The expression on his face could almost be described as flattering.

When the surrounding crew members saw Yan Tang’s appearance, they were all stunned.

Although Yan Tang usually looked like a timid person, he was still very strict during filming. One of the female stars in the production team had been scolded to tears by Yan Tang countless times.

Now, they suddenly saw a young girl who actually received Yan Tang’s favor. Could it be that there was some kind of improper transaction?

However, before such thoughts could spread in the production team, Yan Tang had already clarified, “This is our investor.”

Then, Su Yan and Yun Tian saw that the mouths of the people in the production team were wide open and their pupils constricted. They never expected Su Yan to have such an identity.

Su Yan looked around. She did not recognize the stage supervisor and the other staff, but she did not find any of these actors familiar. Wasn’t that a little unreasonable? Su Yan pointed at the actors and was momentarily speechless.

Regarding this, Yan Tang was also a little shy. After all, it wasn’t right to say in front of an investor that their crew could not hire an actor with some fan base.

“Well, isn’t this cheap?”

Su Yan did not give up and searched around. Fine, she still did not know them. She had miscalculated.

At this moment, a woman walked out of the simple lounge on set. She was clean and had light makeup on. She looked delicate, pretty, and a little helpless. The woman walked out leisurely. However, when she saw that the so-called investors were two underage teenagers, her expression changed instantly.

Then, the woman walked to Yan Tang’s side step by step and said coyly, “Brother Tang, is this the investor?”

The moment he saw the woman, Yan Tang’s face turned pale. He forced a smile and introduced her to Su Yan and Yun Tian. “This is the female lead of our drama, Jiang Ping, who plays the secretary.”

Su Yan stared at Jiang Ping for a while and said without giving her any face, “When I read the script, the female lead shouldn’t be the type of person who would be so delicate.”

Yun Tian’s emotions were more direct. She was unwilling to pay attention to Jiang Ping, so she turned her head away and fiddled with other items that interested her.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ping’s expression turned even uglier. Jiang Ping, who thought that she was the most famous in the production team and had been flattered to the point of floating, immediately turned cold. “Looks like our investor is very good at acting. Why don’t the investors teach me?”

Su Yan and Yan Tang looked at each other. She had never thought that an actor would dare to speak arrogantly to their sugar daddy.

She sneered and said to Yan Tang, “How much have you filmed? Why don’t you change the actress? I can increase my investment. How much do you want?”

Yan Tang was originally thinking about how to resolve the conflict between Su Yan and Jiang Ping, but when he heard Su Yan’s words, Yan Tang’s eyes suddenly lit up. He could not wait to verify. “Really? Is what Miss Yun said true?”

At that moment, Jiang Ping was dumbfounded. She stomped her feet and turned to leave. She did not dare to mention acting as she was worried that she would really be replaced.

This script was the best that Jiang Ping could get so far. Although her character wasn’t as outstanding as the male protagonist, if she acted well, she would be labeled as a young girl.

Furthermore, even though she was the most famous person in the production team, she was still a no-name in the entertainment industry. If one had to say, it could only be said that this production team was too small.

Looking at Yan Tang, who was chatting happily with the investors, Jiang Ping suddenly felt a little guilty. What if what she said just now really offended the investors and they had to replace her? What would she do? Wasn’t she shooting herself in the foot?

The more Jiang Ping thought about it, the more panicked she became. She was afraid that Yan Tang would run over to her and tell her about the replacement.

However, it seemed as if whatever she was afraid of would happen. Just as Jiang Ping was trembling in fear, Su Yan walked over. It was as if a primary school student had seen a teacher. Jiang Ping stood up immediately and clenched her fists nervously.

Su Yan did not come over for any other reason. It was just that Yan Tang had said earlier that Jiang Ping’s acting skills were not bad, and she was dedicated to her work. Her usual style was also alright, and he hoped to give her a chance.

After Su Yan heard these words, she turned her head to look at Jiang Ping’s face. Immediately, she felt that Jiang Ping looked somewhat familiar. Thinking carefully, she recalled that she had once seen Jiang Ping on the news in her previous life.

However, it was the news of Jiang Ping’s suicide.

Due to Jiang Ping finding a sugar daddy, she was discovered by the sugar daddy’s wife. The sugar daddy’s wife took quite a number of pictures of Jiang Ping and even hired an army of ghostwriters. Jiang Ping’s nude photos and the name of a mistress spread throughout China overnight.

Jiang Ping did not have the face to continue living. Finally, she jumped off a building one day. At that time, Jiang Ping’s death caused a sensation on the Internet. It seemed like everyone felt that Jiang Ping’s death was not worthy of pity..
