Chapter 126: Make It by Hand

Chapter 126

Lu Yanming: "I and..."

"Mr. Lu!" Li Zhen was so frightened that her hair stood on end. "Mr. Lu, Mr. Wang, you came to the HR department to see everyone get their quarterly benefits, right? Go ahead, I'll go back to the office first."

Li Zhen pressed the elevator button, and the elevator arrived after a few seconds.

She hurriedly pushed Yu Sheng in.

There were still many other people in the elevator.

The elevator door closed slowly.

Lu Yanming was outside the elevator, standing tall and aloof, the usual gentle light in his eyes now remote and hard to fathom, seeming sad.

But sadness was not a word to describe Lu Yanming.

Li Zhen felt a twinge in her heart, an indescribable emotion pricking her lightly.

Lu Yanming's eyes behind the gold wire glasses stayed fixed on her as the elevator closed, his gaze and the inexplicably sad look on his face gradually disappeared before Li Zhen’s eyes.

Li Zhen regretted it.

She shouldn't have used her remarriage as a shield. This remarriage was just a temporary sham marriage halfway down the road. She shouldn't have hurt Lu Yanming.

When she arrived at the advertising department, Li Zhen raced out of the elevator.

Yu Sheng followed after her.

There weren't many people in the hallway outside the advertising department.

Li Zhen looked back at him. "Yu Sheng, I thought about it carefully just now. Maybe it was because I was too agitated when I told you my thoughts earlier, making you mistakenly think I was being petulant."

She took a shallow breath and said calmly, "Let me seriously discuss with you. I'm determined to end our marriage, not on a whim, and I never thought about remarrying."

"Your so-called determination is only because I neglected you before," Yu Sheng said lightly as he lifted his eyes slightly. His tone was slightly cold as he spoke slowly but earnestly, "Li Zhen, I will change." Fiind updated novels at novelhall.com

Wasn't this the purpose of her cold war?

She should be satisfied now.

She shouldn't argue with him anymore.

He didn't want to argue anymore or be estranged anymore.

Yu Sheng’s unyielding words made Li Zhen unable to restrain her irritation again.

"It's not about changing or not changing..."

Hearing her impatience, Yu Sheng interrupted in a low voice, "Enough, stop talking. Remember my words, move back in a week."

Having said that, he turned and left.

Li Zhen was stunned, almost exploding with anger on the spot.

Now she understood.

Yu Sheng simply wouldn't listen to her.

With his head lowered, Yu Sheng smoothed the wood leisurely and naturally, skilled and at ease. "Yes, now my mom doesn't care about us either. She's always wanted to get into showbiz."

Saying this, his movements paused imperceptibly. "I've held her back for many years."

Yu Sheng's expression was obscured as he lowered his head again to carefully polish the wood. "Uncle Kong, I'll double the investment in <i>Moon Scar</i> for you. You can make the costumes and special effects top notch, and go for all the international awards with it. Let Li Zhen play the female lead, please guide her for me."

Kong Yi watched as Yu Sheng handled the wood attentively and carefully, not leaving any splinters or sharp edges.

He instantly understood.

"You called me here pretending to ask about making furniture, but you actually wanted to recommend little Li, didn't you?" Kong Yi said with a smile.

In fact, the female lead was already set as Luna.

Also a very spirited actress.

But with doubled financing...

And since Yu Sheng had asked, he couldn't easily refuse either.

Just as Kong Yi was about to agree, his pants pocket vibrated with an incoming call. "Let me take this call."

Kong Yi's expression changed instantly when he picked up. "What? ......He said so himself? ......This is...oh...hmm..."

Kong Yi hung up with a frown.

Yu Sheng glanced over. "What's the matter, Uncle Kong?"

"Well..." Kong Yi looked troubled. "I'm afraid Little Li playing the female lead won't work out. Someone from the National Radio and Television Administration called the person on our side. He wants to cast the female lead."

"Who?" Yu Sheng furrowed his brow.

Who could make Kong Yi refuse him and agree to them instead?

"The top boss." Kong Yi sighed.

He could refuse anyone, but absolutely not the top boss at the National Radio and Television Administration. If he was unhappy, whether this drama could even be released would be hard to say.

Which actress pulled strings?

Such influence!

And happened to hit his soft spot right on.

"As long as she's cast, it’s fine. We can go over again after filming starts...she doesn’t pensation..."

After the call, Fei Zhao put down his phone and glanced back.

"Young Master, the <i>Moon Scar</i> matter is settled."

"Good." Lu Yanming responded lightly. Through the car window he looked towards the entrance of the bar. "What time is it?"

Fei Zhao checked the time. "Eleven...Miss Li and the others are quite high, been drinking for hours...they couldn't all be drunk, don't let them be taken advantage of..."

Fei Zhao was still chattering away.

The backseat door opened.

Lu Yanming tidied his already impeccable suit jacket and stepped into the bar.
