Chapter 22

Causing Trouble

Irritated, Lian Jing drove back to the villa. As soon as he entered, he received a call from Yun Shan.

On the other end of the line, Yun Shan was sitting in the hospital, crying. She looked at her cut cheek in the mirror and complained pitifully, “President Lian, someone bullied me. My face is scratched. How can I join the production team tomorrow?”

“Go find the makeup artist,” Lian Jing chided her impatiently. “You don’t have to tell me about such small matters.”

Small matters?

Yun Shan sobbed and said in a trembling voice, “President Lian, why don’t you ask the production team to start filming after my injuries have healed? Otherwise, how can I appear on screen like this!”

“Sure.” Lian Jing finally regained some rationality. He closed his eyes and said in a muffled voice, “I’ll tell the director. I’ll hang up first.”

He called Zhong Xin and briefed him on this matter. After a while, Zhong Xin called, “President Lian, the director has invited you to have dinner together tonight.”

“Where?” Lian Jing leaned back on the sofa and rubbed his brow.

Zhong Xin hesitated for a moment before saying, “At the National Phoenix Hotel.”

An hour later, a dazzling Maserati pulled up in front of the National Phoenix Hotel.

The driver got out calmly, opened the rear door, and stood respectfully to the side. “President Lian, we’re here.”

Lian Jing’s face was cold as the manager personally welcomed him to the private room on the fifth floor.

When Yun Shan saw him arrive, she shyly took his arm and affectionately pulled him over to sit beside her. “Brother Lian, the director specially asked me to come and eat with you.”

Lian Jing retracted his arm and looked up at the director sinisterly. He said with a fake smile, “Director Mo is so thoughtful.”

“Aiya, President Lian, it’s an honor for me. Everyone in our circle knows that you favor Shan Shan.” The director personally poured wine for Lian Jing and then gave Yun Shan a look.

Yun Shan immediately picked up the wine glass and brought it to Lian Jing’s mouth. “Brother Lian, Director Mo specially ordered this vintage for you. Do you want to try it?”

Lian Jing pushed Yun Shan’s hand away and glanced at the two of them. He said expressionlessly, “Director Mo, let’s sit down and talk.”

“Yes, yes, yes.” Director Mo sat and asked Lian Jing indirectly if he was interested in investing in his next television drama.

Lian Jing continued drinking by himself. No matter how Director Mo asked, all he received was a ‘there’s no hurry to decide’.

Lian Jing was not anxious, but he was!

Everyone knew that a few years ago, the Lian family had stepped into the entertainment industry to promote Yun Shan. But what surprised them was that after so many years, Lian Jing still only supported Yun Shan, clearing all obstacles in her way.

Otherwise, with her mediocre acting skills, she would not have been able to get to where she was today, no matter how many beds she climbed into!

Director Mo looked at Yun Shan thoughtfully. Gossip was rife about the relationship between the two of them, but after seeing them with his own eyes today, it seemed that Lian Jing did not like her very much. That was strange.

Seeing Lian Jing drinking in frustration, Director Mo guessed that he was in a bad mood.

He tentatively filled the glass in front of Yun Shan. “Shan Shan, you should toast President Lian.”

Yun Shan understood and raised her hand. She tactfully took the initiative to clink glasses with Lian Jing. She slowly drank the wine.

Her face quickly turned red after drinking the strong wine.

She looked seductively at Lian Jing’s handsome face. The director tactfully left, leaving Yun Shan to wield her charms on Lian Jing.

“Brother Lian.” She hooked her arms around Lian Jing’s neck, batting her eyes seductively and speaking alluringly. “Brother Lian, I think I’m drunk.”

Lian Jing had drunk a lot of hard liquor, but seldom vintages as strong as this.

Just now, his mind was filled with Shen Yin. In a moment of depression, he drank a few more glasses. Now that he was drunk, his consciousness gradually blurred.

“Brother Lian.” Yun Shan slowly unbuttoned his clothes and fumbled around his chest, causing the man in front of her to gradually become flustered.

Over the years, no matter how others talked about Yun Shan’s relationship with Lian Jing, only she knew that Lian Jing had never touched her.

For years, it had been a humiliation to her

Lian Jing pushed her away with a wave of his hand, his dazed eyes fixed on the woman’s tacky face.

Not Shen Yin…

He was about to open the door to the private room without looking back when she quickly grabbed his hand and clung to his chest. “President Lian, my head hurts. Can you send me back to my room to rest?”

“Get lost,” Lian Jing said through gritted teeth.

When she saw that he was unsteady on his feet, she steeled herself. Abruptly, she stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the lips.
