Chapter 419 - 419: Receiving a Special Benefit
“What’s there to see?” Li Yu frowned. “Can’t you just tell me?”
Just now, Ling’er told him to look for Yan Jin, and now the latter wanted him to watch a video. What were they planning?
Yan Jin started to play a video that was half an hour long.
He said, “You might not believe me if I tell you, so you should watch it by yourself.”
In the video, Jiang Ling’er hugged a male actor who was covered in blood and cried sadly. However, every time Pan Yueyue appeared, she would either say the wrong lines or have a bad expression. Moreover, she even laughed and said that the male actor looked like he was enjoying himself; not resembling a corpse at all.
Jiang Ling’er cried repeatedly for more than 30 minutes for this scene. She had to touch up her makeup and adjust her emotions. However, Pan Yueyue still said she was in a ‘bad state’ because Jiang Ling’er’s strong aura frightened heer.
Li Yu’s expression darkened after he sped up the video. Pan Yueyue was so arrogant, making things difficult for his woman. She was defying the heavens!
When Yan Jin saw Li Yu’s expression, he said seriously, “I hate it when people cause trouble in my production team. She’s just the fourth female lead, yet she dares to target the female lead so arrogantly. She’s being so bold, and it’s all because you gave her the courage to do that.”
Li Yu’s face darkened. How could he have done that?
He immediately replied, “Don’t talk nonsense. Anyways, isn’t Pan Yueyue in a bad state right now? Revise the script immediately and arrange for the scene where she falls into the water. Let her get retribution directly. Remember, if there are any bad takes while filming, just say that it’s a special benefit I gave her for the summer.”
Yan Jin was speechless.
He actually dealt with it just like that?
Jiang Ling’er had won!

Around 4 o’clock.
Assistant Zhang took the newly-edited script and looked for Pan Yueyue.
Pan Yueyue read through the new script, immediately jumped up.
Although she was furious, she pretended to be pitiful.
“Assistant Zhang, what’s the meaning of this?” she asked.
Looking at her pitiful face, Little Zhang even felt a little sympathetic. However, when she thought about how Pan Yueyue was deliberately targeting other actors and how arrogant she acted, she immediately felt that she shouldn’t be sympathetic.
“Yes, Director Yan said that this is CEO Li’s special benefit for you this summer,” said Assistant Zhang.
Pan Yueyue looked incredulous when she heard this, even more infuriated.
“Assistant Zhang, did you take the wrong one?” Pan Yueyue asked, feigning innocence. What kind of surprise was this? It’s obvious that he wants to chase me away!”
“If you think that way, then there’s nothing I can do,” said Assistant Zhang calmly.
Assistant Zhang said earnestly, “In my opinion, you guys better not do that. If Director Yan hadn’t agreed, do you think I would’ve been brave enough to bring this script over in the first place?
Pan Yueyue couldn’t hold it in any longer. Her face was ferocious as she bit her lip. “Sister Hong, find me a body double. I’m not filming!”
Assistant Zhang said lightly, “You can do whatever you want. However, according to Director Yan’s personality, he wouldn’t let a body double do it. Even if you leave directly, you still have to pay the penalty for breaching the contract.”
“Don’t go overboard!” Pan Yueyue said angrily. “What right do you have to treat me like this?”
Assistant Zhang replied, “Miss Pan, Director Yan thinks you’re replaceable. It’s not a bad idea to let you finish filming the last scene, right? Listen to me; just shoot this last scene well and leave. Then, you can take on other shows. Isn’t that good? If you continue pushing this, I’m afraid you won’t have the chance to continue acting in the future.”
“Are you threatening me?” Pan Yueyue asked.
Assistant Zhang chuckled and said, “I’m really doing this for your own good, but you misunderstood me. There’s no other way besides this. However, you can also ask your agent to analyze it for you.”
“Assistant Zhang, when is the shoot?” Sister Hong asked after a moment of silence.
Pan Yueyue looked at her with dissatisfaction. She said, “They’re bullying me like this, but you still want to cooperate? Haven’t I been embarrassed enough?”
“If you want to leave the entertainment industry forever, you can do that after you pay the penalty fee,” Sister Hong said seriously.
Assistant Zhang said, “So, you guys can discuss whether you want to keep filming or leave. The exact time is written in the script. I have other things to do, so I won’t disturb you anymore.”
After Assistant Zhang left, Sister Hong said, “Yueyue, listen to me. Let’s finish this scene and leave. If we really anger Yan Jing, it wouldn’t do us any good.” “What, does he still dare to ban me?” Pan Yueyue asked indignantly.
“Why wouldn’t I dare?” Sister Hong asked doubtfully.
“Sister Hong, if I was weak, why would I have provoked the Jiang family’s daughter?” Pan Yueyue said contemptuously.. “I’m not dumb!”
