Chapter 25.3 – Hotel
While doing the payment process, Su Yan was still thinking about how to say goodbye to Bai Xingfan, and luckily she got a message from the assistant surnamed Yang. [Ms. Su, are you busy? Sorry to bother you, The film crew has reserved a presidential suite for you at the Dongan Hotel. When you have time, I will help you move your things.]
The Dongan Hotel was a five-star hotel near the film and television city.
Seeing such a message, Su Yan was stunned instantly. ‘They have changed their attitudes towards me very fast. Ms. Su? Didn’t you just call me “Xiao Su” just a few hours ago?
Before Su Yan had time to reply, another message came. [What happened this morning was all a misunderstanding. I hope Mr. Su will just ignore those things. Director Wu is also very guilty now, and that is why he didn’t contact you this time. We will communicate with the actors, and the filming will never deviate from the original script until you are satisfied!]
Su Yan: “…”
The sudden attitude change was really shocking. But she also knew that this respect was not for her, but for the man sitting opposite her. Staring at the WeChat message for a while, she bit her lip in confusion and then looked at Bai Xingfan shyly. “Well, Mr. Bai, can you do me a favour?”
‘Why did you suddenly become so polite?’ Bai Xingfan wanted to laugh. “What’s the matter?”
“I… will continue to stay in this group for another three months, so can I trouble you to take care of me during these three months?” Su Yan was very embarrassed to ask such a favour, but she had to bite the bullet and ask, otherwise, she may lose the right to speak about the script again. Since Teacher Li recommended her to the team, she had to stay no matter what happened and also didn’t want the painstaking effort of her and other members of the screenwriting team to be in vain.
Bai Xingfan could understand what she meant and also understand her worry. “Yes.”
Su Yan let out a long sigh of relief and said, “Thank you, Mr. Bai!”
Bai Xingfan: “Then, can Miss Su treat me to dinner again?”
Su Yan: “Of course!” ‘Isn’t it just a meal? I can afford it! And what will change after a meal? will be still Su Yan, and he will be still Bai Xingfan.’
Bai Xingfan’s eyes rolled slightly, and his smile was gentle. “I’m waiting for Miss Su’s invitation.”
Su Yan smiled and said, “Okay. I want to go back to the set, you…” Before Su Yan finished speaking, she was interrupted by a phone ringing, and the caller ID was Teacher Li. She immediately grabbed her phone from the table and said to Bai Xingfan, “Sorry, I have a call.”
A few minutes later, she hung up the phone, looked at Bai Xingfan timidly, and said, “Well, can you not change Director Wu? Will it be a problem for you?”
The purpose of Teacher Li calling her just now was to persuade her to calm down, and she said, ‘No matter who you are, you can’t do things too badly.’ Su Yan was not stupid, of course, she understood this truth. She would get help from Bai Xingfan this time, but he couldn’t cover her for the rest of her life, so she couldn’t act recklessly this time. Although she was still a little angry, as a human being, one must learn to endure.
Bai Xingfan was noncommittal. “Are you sure?”
Su Yan sighed and told the truth, “Actually, in this crew, Director Wu’s right to speak is not the highest. The relatives of the sponsors asked him to change the script. So he has to listen unless he doesn’t want to be in this circle anymore. Although he’s a little bit judgmental, his business ability is still good, and he has produced several blockbuster dramas. Changing directors will have a great impact on the entire crew.”
Bai Xingfan: “Who is the relative of the investor?”
Su Yan: “…” ‘You really know how to focus!’
She was helpless. “It’s not important! Even if it is very important, I can’t tell you, or I will offend people.”
Bai Xingfan sighed softly, and said, “If they bully you again, just tell me, and I will take care of them.”
Su Yan couldn’t help but feel warm in her heart. “Got it.”
“Do you want to go back to the set now?” Bai Xingfan asked.
Su Yan nodded. “Yeah.”
Bai Xingfan: “Let them pick you up.”
Su Yan’s eyes widened. “Huh?”
Bai Xingfan: “How can there be any reason to go back after being angry?”
Su Yan understood well. It was a matter of aura. If she went back by herself, her aura would weaken in an instant, like a local dog who ran away from home and then walked back in disgrace. In this way, she won’t be able to deter them. “Then I have to wait until they come here to pick me up?” she asked.
Bai Xingfan: “Tell them you’re at Dongan Hotel.”
“Okay!”
