章節 16: Who's Getting A Face Slap?

Xu Mey took a deep breath after discussing the way of not offending her with Director Yang. It wasn't much of a big deal.

"I heard you're taking a small time actress in your next movie as a lead?" She asked indifferently. Director Yang replied with a 'Yes'. She further said, "Leaving a top star like Song Yuling, Director Yang is settling for a petty actress? It's such a shame."

"Song Yuling is in Hollywood," Director Yang replied keeping his humble tone.

"Yuling is coming next week. And she'd love to work with Director Yang." Director Yang couldn't believe her words.

"But Ms. Xu, Xu Enterprises is one of the biggest investors and if I kicked Xu Liqing out from the crew, they'll pull their investments." Director Yang stated his dilemma making Xu Mey frown.

"Would you like for Lotus Entertainments to invest in your movie or Xu Enterprises?"

"Of course, Lotus Entertainments," Director Yang was elated to hear the Lotus Entertainments name. It was known to be the biggest Entertainment company with all the supermodels and actors signed under them. They even had some signers along with directors in their team. Lotus Entertainment was built from scratch by one and only Mr. Li Qiao.

"Then, I think you know what you need to do." Without hearing Director Yang's reply, Xu Mey disconnected the call.

She laid on the bed flipping her phone in hand and finally, dialed the number of Li Qiao. "Little Mey, are you alright?" He was worried when he saw her name flash on his phone screen.

"Qiao, Song Yuling is coming next week, right?" Li Qiao hummed in reply still confused about her calling at this time. "I told Director Yang that she'll be his new lead actress and you will also invest in the film."

"Okay," Was the only answer he gave.

"You won't ask why I did it?"

"Never. Lotus Entertainment is as much yours as it's mine. You can do whatever you want to do, Little Mey. I won't mind. Now, stop worrying and go to sleep. My little girl is getting married tomorrow." Xu Mey could hear the love in his voice and it made the chill around her to dissipate a bit.

After his talk with Xu Mey, Li Qiao called his assistant and said in his stern voice, "Inform Song Yuling, she's gonna sign a movie with Director Yang next week and arrange our production team to have a meeting with Director Yang to discuss the details of investments."

The first thing in the morning, Xu Mey heard a loud shriek of Xu Liqing which made her day seem brighter. With a smirk, she got out of her bed.

Xu Mey went to the wedding hall earlier than she was supposed to. Her maid was holding her wedding dress along with other accessories behind her. "You can give it to me." The maid looked at the boy who offered to help and shook her head to refuse his offer.

"Give him the things and you can leave," She heard Xu Mey's voice and gave the things in her hand to the boy before her with pursed lips. "You're late, Qin Hao."

Qin Hao cleared his throat. "Sorry about that Boss."

"I don't like apologies and you know that," She walked inside the bridal room as Qin Hao followed behind with his head lowered. "Did you set up everything?"

"Yes, I did," He passed a tablet to Xu Mey and said, "All the cameras are attached and you'll be able to see everything from here." Xu Mey nodded and asked him to leave.

She tapped her fingers on the dressing table and heard the door open behind her. Jun Li Na walked inside in her green colored dress that reached her knees and Sun Ju was beside her in a pink colored mermaid gown. "You're planning something?" Li Na gave her an ecstatic look and Sun Ju rolled her eyes at them.

"Who's getting a face slap?" Sun Ju asked with curiosity.

Xu Mey showed her cunning smile making a cold shiver run down her spine. "You'll know." Both Jun Li Na and Sun Ju was excited about her giving a face slap. Because the person being slapped hardly knew who delivered the crisp slap to their faces.

Xu Mey turned on the tablet and all cameras were showing the view of hall, doorway, and storage room. Xu Mey saw Xu Liqing entering the storage room in her bright blue colored dress that barely reached her mid-thighs. Her brown hair was tied up in a side bun with various pearl accessories complimenting her dress. Her puffy panda eyes were hidden beneath layers of make-up.

Xu Liqing sent a text to Ye Jie which Xu Mey received on her phone as well. She asked Li Na to hack Xu Liqing's phone and connect it with her own. Liqing didn't even know when Li Na's people placed a small chip inside her phone. Now, Xu Mey would know about every call and every other activity on her phone. The text read; 'Mr. Ye, I'm in the storage room. You should come discretely.'

Xu Mey waited for 30 minutes. She was waiting to see whether Ye Jie will go to meet Xu Liqing or not. When he didn't show up for half an hour, she perceived he won't be coming. And the thought of him showing trust in her made her really happy. "It's time for me to make a move now." She stood up leaving two beauties with their mischievous looks.
