Chapter 32: Everyone’s Idol (2)



The director was over forty-years-old and had a square face shape, giving off a sense of security.

The director sized Chuzheng up suspiciously. ‘Why does this lady’s aura… seem so different from the previous time we met?’

They had already spent some time traveling so Chuzheng did not wish to waste any more time talking with the director and hence directly went into the main topic.

Soon, both parties had come into a verbal agreement and Chuzheng quickly transferred ten million dollars to the director in the last few minutes of her mission as though she was throwing a burning hot potato away.

However, Chuzheng had not expected that the proprietress card could not transfer so much money at once.

‘Man proposes, God disposes.’

King’s happy voice broke the silence. [Congratulations Little miss, you are now given the chance to double your sum. Ten million dollars is now in your bank account. Please spend twenty million dollars in one hour!]

Chuzheng: “…” ‘Not only did the sum double, but the time also reduced!’

She took a peek at the director as her expression became more serious. “Director.”

“Miss Gu?” ‘She won’t regret her decision right?’ Although they have enough investors for the prophase of the drama production, the director was still troubled over the lack of investors for the later part of the production… Ten million to them was already a big sum.

“Can I add another ten million dollars?” ‘This damned system actually doubled the sum of money!’

The director froze before giving her a big smile. “Of course you can, of course you can.”

‘What luck today!’

‘It’s twenty million dollars!’

‘Major investment!’

‘My God of Fortune!’

Chuzheng and the director went to the nearby bank and settled the payment which made the director very happy.

[Congratulations Little miss for completing the mission! Your reward of ten million dollars is now in your bank account.]

Chuzheng: “…” ‘The sum did not double?’

[Yes, Little miss. As doubling the sum stated in your mission is considered as a punishment, we cannot give you double the sum of your reward~ So Little miss, it would be best if you can finish your mission in the designated time otherwise when the time cannot be reduced further, you will have to repeat the mission.]

Chuzheng was shocked. “…”

‘Even if the original 10 million increased to 100 million dollars and I managed to spend it all, I will only get 10 million dollars as a reward. But if the time runs out, I will have to repeat…’

‘It’s so tiring to spend money.’

‘Which imbecile designed this system which violates the rules of science?’

Chuzheng went back to her home. She had just wanted to close the door, but someone blocked the door with their two hands.

“You are fine now?” A lady with exquisite make-up scanned Chuzheng as she entered the house.

The was the proprietress’ roommate, Liu Manman.

Liu Manman threw the things on her hand to the sofa. “Gu Chuzheng, you shouldn’t blame me because I earned the role using my own abilities. Society works like this.”

Chuzheng closed the door and looked at Liu Manman.

‘The person which the proprietress needs to counterattack against… should be her.’

Liu Manman looked through her stuff while saying in a pitiful tone. “Oh right, I can talk to the director to give you a role and let you act as my maid. There are lines too.”

“No need.”

“Stuck-up snob.”

Liu Manman chuckled while swaying her butt from side to side and walked back to her room.

She did not feel a single sense of guilt for using underhand methods to steal Chuzheng’s role.

The proprietress and Liu Manman met when they were acting walk-on roles together. Liu Manman also did not graduate from a famous school nor have any acting experience and hence, they took on walk-on roles together.

Both of them even rented a house together. In the beginning, their relationship was still considered good but Liu Manman gradually started to order the proprietress around.

Moreover, Liu Manman was very pretty and had a glib tongue and hence, she was able to get more acting roles that had lines.

When she was acting, she treated the proprietress like her assistant and ordered her around. She even caused her to be late for a few of her acting schedules which had offended the director and eventually led to the proprietress losing her acting role.

Nonetheless, in the past, she would still leave some face for the proprietress and would not fall-out with her. Yet, ever since Liu Manman stole the proprietress’s role and the proprietress came to question her, Liu Manman did not hide her dislike towards the proprietress again.

Even till the day the proprietress died, she still did not know why Liu Manman hated her so much.

In the following days, Liu Manman had always left early and came home late so she did not have much chance to interact with Chuzheng until the day the production crew informed her about the filming process.

Liu Manman was fetched by a car early in the morning.

When Liu Manman reached the film set, she immediately went to find the assistant director.

“Assistant director, I heard that our drama production recently gained a new sponsor?”

The assistant director nodded. “Yes, why did you ask?”

“Who is the investor?” probed Liu Manman curiously. The people beside her also pricked up their eyes when they overheard their conversation.

They have also heard about the new investments, but they still had no idea who the investor was up till today.

The assistant director scanned Liu Manman’s body before fixing his eyes on her breast and chuckled, “I am not sure about that. The director personally interacted with the investor and did not want to tell me who it was even when I asked him so I guess he wants to keep it a secret.”

“I see…”

The actors in this drama were either unpopular or were has-beens.

The opening ceremony had started and Liu Manman overheard somebody’s conversation.

“Strange, why hasn’t the second female lead arrived?”

“Eh? I didn’t see her just now either.”

“Isn’t the second female lead Dong Xin, who had been popular a while ago?”

“It seems to be her. But she’s not even popular now and yet she still acts so arrogantly. Look, the female lead and male lead have already arrived.”

The second female lead still had not appeared even when the actors had started filming.

Liu Manman has been doing very well during her filming process. Not only did she coax the director well, but the crew members also liked her very much.

One day, Liu Manman had just finished her acting scene and went out to take a breather, only to bump into Chuzheng.

Liu Manman was very surprised. “What are you doing here?”

Chuzheng habitually placed her hands in her pocket as she glanced at her coldly. “It’s none of your business.”

“Hmph.” Liu Manman crossed her arms and scoffed, “Previously, I said that I can give you a role, but you didn’t want it. Now, the filming has already started so what’s the use of you coming here?”

“Good dogs do not block the pathway.”

Liu Manman’s facial expression stiffened as she rebuked, “You dare to scold me!”

Chuzheng denied sternly, “I didn’t.”

‘You snatched my role and you still dare to blame me?’

‘Don’t think that just because you look pretty, you can scold people irresponsibly!’

Liu Manman furrowed her eyebrows as Chuzheng was obviously pointing at the mulberry tree while cursing the locust tree… but then again, something did not feel right about this woman.

In the past, Gu Chuzheng was stubborn and smug, but that was not how she was today—she gave off a cold and uncomfortable feeling.

“Quickly leave this place.” Liu Manman suddenly became irritated and pushed her outside. “They are filming inside so don’t interrupt us and quickly leave.”

Chuzheng grabbed her wrist in a swift action before twisting it. Liu Manman widened her eyes in shock as her body uncontrollably fell to the side.

Liu Manman fell on the ground, dumbfounded.

“Manman!”

A man ran over and helped Liu Manman to her feet.

“What’s wrong?” The assistant director supported Liu Manman while feeling sorry for her.

Liu Manman’s hand was bleeding and she gasped in pain, “Assistant director, this person is so weird. She even hurt me.”

Chuzheng had already retracted her hand and stuff it in her pocket as she looked at them with a cold look.

The assistant director met Chuzheng’s eyes and his heart skipped a beat. It was as though he was being stared at by something ferocious as goosebumps sprang up all over his body.

“Aren’t you…” The assistant director sized her up carefully and recognized her. “Gu… Gu Chuzheng?”

Liu Manman’s current role belonged to her but she was taken down by herself.

The assistant director immediately came back to his senses and pointed his finger at her. He righteously criticized, “The distribution of roles was an internal decision. You are not suitable for the role so why did you find Manman for trouble? Quickly apologize to Manman!”

“No way.” ‘Dream on!’
