“You can act out whatever I wish to see?” Li Yu asked with a smile.

Jiang Ling’er nodded seriously.

He pretended to think for a moment and said, “Then call me hubby!”

“Really?” she raised her eyebrows.

She didn’t care. It was all an act anyway. Besides, Li Yu wasn’t the only man around. There were also delicate and rigorous men!

He suddenly thought of something and immediately said, “Forget it.”

Jiang Ling’er laughed.

“Li Yu, you guys…”

Yan Jin deliberately didn’t finish his sentence.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“I wanted to introduce her to you on New Year’s Day, but I’ve been spending a lot of time and effort to get the female lead,” Li Yu said seriously.

When Li Na heard this, her expression changed drastically. She was even more flustered. Only then did she know that she had f*cked up. She originally wanted to make her presence known to Li Yu, but now, she only wanted to become invisible.

The middle-aged man who had helped Li Na previously also changed his expression. He hid behind Old Qi and tried his best to disappear.

Upon hearing this, Yan Jin facepalmed.

“It’s a good thing I didn’t choose anyone else.” He exhaled. “If it were someone else, my heart might not be able to take it.”

Li Yu looked at Yan Jin with disdain. He said, “You still haven’t explained to me what’s going on,”

The latter suddenly felt a little guilty. Li Yu wasn’t only the original editor of this drama, but also its only financial head.

“Aiya, Li Yu, don’t be stingy. Do you still have to be so calculative about our relationship?” Yan Jin immediately said ingratiatingly. “I was just thinking up two plans. If an accident happened, and your plan wouldn’t be suitable, then we would need a backup, right?”

“What?” Li Yu looked at him coldly. “You still can make up such a reason?”

Yan Jin shook his head helplessly. He was also worried. After all, Li Yu was a layman. He was afraid that Li Yu would start looking for just another pretty face with no actual skills, so he personally took action.

Li Yu looked at the other three interviewers. “Just now, who said that the female lead I chose has a bad character?” Li Yu asked.

The middle-aged man’s face turned pale as he looked at Li Na.

Li Na was also annoyed. Why were they looking at her now? “CEO Li, I had a little dispute with student Jiang earlier,” Li Na said gently.

“Huh?” Li Yu said. “Is that so? Since you’re so honest, tell me, what dispute did you have and how did it happen?”

He was very calm. He wanted to see what she was going to say.

She was helpless and replied gently, “To be honest, her acting skills are very good, and I admire her for it. My concern is she’s too arrogant, so 1 kindly reminded her a few times. However, she did not appreciate it and was very disrespectful to me. This is the first time I’ve met a student who doesn’t know what’s good for her, so 1 got a little angry. No matter how good her acting skills are, if she has a poor character, she won’t do well in this industry.”

“And then?” Li Yu said indifferently.

Li Na continued helplessly, “Then, Teacher Sun persuaded Student Jiang to apologize. He said that she was still a student and shouldn’t have such an attitude. Afterward, Director Yan returned.”

Jiang Ling’er said mockingly, “You’ve been talking nonsense for a long time, so there’s no point in listening to you. Since you doubt my character, please give me an example.”

Li Na looked at Jiang Ling’er sympathetically.

“Her acting skills are good, but she’s too proud and arrogant,” she said.

Old Sun, who was standing at the side, immediately stepped forward to help. He said seriously, “Student Jiang, you may be very capable, but your attitude is not something a student should have.”

Jiang Ling’er saw that the two of them still dared to mess around at a time like this. She sneered and said, “Ha… Teacher Sun, right? Tell me, what kind of attitude should a student have?”

“We don’t want to embarrass you too much for CEO Li’s sake. Don’t continue to be ungrateful,” Li Na said sternly.

“If I’m not a good person, then you should let CEO Li know!” Jiang Ling’er said indifferently. “But it’s not that you don’t want to say anything, you don’t dare to, right? Because this whole time, you’ve just been slandering me.”

“So, no one wants to tell the truth?” Li Yu asked as he glanced at the crowd.

Jiang Ling’er smiled at Li Na and Old Sun.

“These two are in cahoots,” she said, “Of course, their confessions are the same.”

She then looked at Yan Jin and Old Qi.

“Of these two, one wasn’t around and went out to make a phone call, while the other thinks that it has nothing to do with him,” she said.

Li Na thought for a moment, her expression serious. “CEO Li, believe it or not, my conflict just now was indeed because of Student Jiang’s character.”

Li Yu’s face darkened.. Did Li Na think he was a fool?
