Chapter 228 She Must Not Let Her Succeed!
After the first segment of filming finished, the director let Mu Yan rest for twenty minutes.She walked over to where Song Cheng’an was and noticed the atmosphere was a bit strange.
Song Cheng’an looked at her and asked, "Your senior said you were expelled for plagiarism, is that true?"
Mu Yan glanced at Li Shangjia and calmly said, "I was indeed expelled for that reason, but I wasn’t the one who plagiarized."
Li Shangjia didn’t expect Song Cheng’an to bring it up directly, and her face couldn’t hide her discomfort.
She regretted bringing it up, feeling she shouldn’t have mentioned it.
She avoided Mu Yan’s gaze and said to Ning Shishen, "Mr. Ning, I’ll go ahead and get busy."
Ning Shishen nodded almost imperceptibly and looked at Mu Yan, suddenly recalling what she had said during dinner.
If someone said she was expelled for plagiarism, would he believe it?
Li Shangjia had just walked a few steps when she heard Ning Shishen’s voice from behind, "I believe Miss Mu wouldn’t plagiarize."
She froze all over. If Mr. Ning knew Mu Yan was expelled because of plagiarizing her work, given his trust in Mu Yan, would he suspect her?
Mu Yan watched Li Shangjia’s retreating figure, a slight smile playing on her lips, "Would Mr. Ning like to know who falsely accused me of plagiarizing her work?"
Ning Shishen didn’t reply, but followed her gaze.
Li Shangjia could feel the eyes on her back, and her mind was in chaos, causing her to quicken her pace.
Song Cheng’an looked at Mu Yan and smiled, "Could it be your senior?"
Mu Yan neither confirmed nor denied it; revealing the answer now would spoil the intrigue.
After a while of resting, Mu Yan continued filming, and Song Cheng’an had matters to attend to, so he left first.
Luo Yao went to get lunch boxes, and Mu Yan sat under the shade of a tree, resting and chatting on the phone with Jiang Jingheng.
"Is the filming tiring?" he asked.
"Not tiring at all. It’s my first time shooting a commercial; it’s quite refreshing," Mu Yan laughed, "It’s easier than acting."
"Then shoot commercials from now on."
"No way!" Mu Yan refused outright, "Acting is more interesting than this."
"Come home tonight."
Mu Yan bit her lip, "Can it be in a few days?"
Mu Chen had just woken up, and she was busy with work; she couldn’t accompany him during the day, so how could she not be there at night?
The person on the other end of the line was silent for a moment, then said, "Have you had lunch?"
"Luo Yao went to get food; have you eaten?"
"About to eat."
"Okay, then go have your meal."
Mu Yan hung up the phone, looking at it and not realizing how sweetly she was smiling.
"Did your sweetheart confess to you?" came Ning Shishen’s voice suddenly from beside her.
Mu Yan was startled, turning her head to see him sitting nearby.
She smiled slightly, "Yes."
A dark glint flashed in Ning Shishen’s eyes, and he said calmly, "Congratulations."
"Thank you." Mu Yan placed her phone on the table.
At that moment, Luo Yao and Ning Shishen’s assistant came over, placing lunch boxes on the table.
"Would you mind sharing the table?" Ning Shishen asked Mu Yan.
Mu Yan smiled, "Of course not."
Ning Shishen had a background in design, giving them plenty to chat about in terms of art, and they enjoyed the conversation.
Not far away, Li Shangjia was having lunch with her subordinates.
She looked at Mu Yan’s back, her eyes filled with a poison-like intensity.
The people next to her were chatting while eating.
"Could it be that Mr. Ning has taken a liking to Mu Yan? When have you ever seen a woman by his side?"
"Who would have thought that even someone like Mr. Ning would not be immune to liking young beauties."
"I heard that Mu Yan got the endorsement because of Mr. Ning’s decision. Another actress was originally chosen."
...
Li Shangjia lowered her eyelids, her face almost contorting.
Mu Yan, why does she always want to take whatever she has her eyes on!
No, she absolutely cannot let her succeed!
