Chapter 61 -61: I Allow You to Leave
However, when Luo Bingbing lifted her hand, it did not slap her face but hung in mid-air, as if blocked by some invisible force and just could not fall.
“Cut!” With such an obvious pause, the director could only call for a break. “It’s okay, take your time!”
So she adjusted her emotions again, but the second time was still the same, and the slap simply did not come down.
Tang Yu noticed Luo Bingbing’s hesitant appearance in front of her, as if suddenly unsure of herself, a stark contrast to before.
She couldn’t quite grasp her psychological activities.
Was it because of Ye Sihan’s appearance that she became like this, nervous?
After five or six takes, Tang Yu could recite her lines smoothly, and Luo Bingbing’s slap finally fell, with a light touch.
The director shouted hoarsely, “It’s a wrap!”
Luo Bingbing approached Ye Sihan with a coquettish demeanor, “Sihan, maybe it’s because you came to see me, and I was too happy, so my emotions weren’t in the right place. I hope I didn’t disappoint you.”
Tang Yu, who just happened to be passing by, heard Luo Bingbing’s words and couldn’t help but glance over, thinking to herself, a remarkable performance? Was she aiming to ruin my face?
Ye Sihan, who was sitting down, sipped his coffee, his voice deep and slightly cold, “It’s not your fault.”
“Right? I thought so too.” Luo Bingbing threw a provocative glance at Tang Yu.
Tang Yu silently walked to the other side, trying her best to avoid them.
She thought to herself, if it’s not Luo Bingbing’s problem, then it must be mine.
As she turned to leave, she heard Luo Bingbing inviting Ye Sihan, “Sihan, shall we have lunch together later?”
Back in the makeup room, she removed the makeup from her face.
She took off layer after layer of costume, changed into her own clothes, and heard the sound of a door opening outside, assuming it was another actor entering.
After all, this was a communal makeup room.
After changing, she lifted the curtain to step out, and her steps halted abruptly at the sight of the black figure seated on the chair.
Her eyes widened in surprise as she looked at Ye Sihan.
Ye Sihan raised his dark eyes, glancing at her coldly, his thin lips pressed together, exuding a merciless and cold-blooded vibe.
Tang Yu took a few steps forward, “Mr. Ye, what are you doing here?”
She wondered, hadn’t he gone to eat with Luo Bingbing? Or was he planning to go later? What was the purpose of his presence in her makeup room at this time?
Her mind couldn’t help but think the worst.
“You really don’t fit in the entertainment industry, unsociable, with poor acting skills,” Ye Sihan pointed out bluntly.
Tang Yu nibbled her lip, asking innocently, “Can I… Can I leave now?”
As she spoke, she saw Ye Sihan stand up, the air around him becoming restless, making her regret having asked such a question.
The dark figure approached, her chin was lifted, and she was forced to meet those deep, piercingly cold black eyes, making her breath catch.
She heard Ye Sihan’s deep voice weighing down on her, “Do you want to leave that badly? Hmm?”
“Not really… It would be bad to replace an actor in the middle of a shoot…” Tang Yu, unable to grasp Ye Sihan’s profound thoughts, quickly amended her statement.
Ye Sihan looked down at her, his deep black eyes like a black hole, ready to shatter souls at a closer proximity, “I’ll allow you to leave.”
Tang Yu responded, “Oh… Ah?”
Ye Sihan’s gaze deepened as he released her chin, “Leave.” With that, he turned and walked away.
Tang Yu stood there, stunned. When she came back to her senses, she hurriedly chased after him, cautiously following behind Ye Sihan to his vehicle.
By the time Luo Bingbing caught up, she saw Tang Yu get into the car, and the Rolls-Royce drove away.
Fury twisted Luo Bingbing’s features.
Zhou Qinghua came over, “If it weren’t for Tang Yu’s seduction, Big Brother Ye would definitely have gone to lunch with you.”
“Why must she compete with me? Bitch!” Luo Bingbing ground her teeth.
“That’s not all, she also seduced Yuli. Don’t worry, Aunt Lin doesn’t like Tang Yu; entering a wealthy family is out of the question,” Zhou Qinghua said. “Of course, Big Brother Ye won’t marry her either, especially since she’s Yu Zhaohui’s daughter! But even so, I can’t stand her.”
At this moment, Luo Bingbing’s heart swelled with hate, having lost both face and substance to the utmost degree.
She was determined to make Tang Yu pay for her provocation.
When the car arrived at Cloud Club, upon entering, there were no other guests to be seen, not even luxury cars at the entrance other than Ye Sihan’s lone vehicle.
It must have been booked for a private event.
After sitting down, Tang Yu asked, “Are we here to eat?”
Ye Sihan lifted his gaze, sharp and unfathomable, “Do you want to do something else?”
Tang Yu’s complexion turned uneasy, and she shook her head, “No.”
She had thought Ye Sihan was going to take her to do something else; as it turned out, it was just a meal.
Yes, what else would they be doing at this time, if not eating?
The main issue was that she was just too wary of Ye Sihan, he was far too dangerous.
But why was it her he invited to dinner, and not Luo Bingbing?
If Luo Bingbing found out, she would surely trouble Tang Yu in every possible way again.
Of course, these thoughts remained in her head, as she had no intention of asking and touching upon Ye Sihan’s unknown sore spot.
Once the delicacies were served, Tang Yu waited for Ye Sihan to start eating before she followed suit.
The atmosphere in the quiet private room was oppressively tense.
Tang Yu chewed her food cautiously, afraid any odd noise might escape.
Meanwhile, Ye Sihan remained silent, as if dining alone, a very natural habit, as if this was his usual way.
Tang Yu’s throat tightened as she asked, “Can I really leave the production crew?”
“I could take back that statement.”
“I was thinking… could I leave after we finish shooting?” Tang Yu asked.
Though it was Ye Sihan’s arrangement and under his control, at least the money was hers.
The payment for the second female lead was not insignificant.
Besides, not being in the crew likely meant returning to KING Group, under Ye Sihan’s watchful eye every day, which she did not want.
She had said those words before merely as a front, never expecting Ye Sihan to actually agree!
In fact, she had other plans, such as taking the quadruplets and escaping from Jingdu before the wrap!
After she finished speaking, Tang Yu felt the hawk-like gaze from Ye Sihan, which made her nervous, and she added, “I’ve put feelings into that role and don’t want to be irresponsible… As soon as the shooting is over, I’ll leave.”
Ye Sihan stared at her, his piercing gaze seemingly penetrating her body, curious to know what other tricks she might play.
Under his prolonged scrutiny, Tang Yu felt like she could collapse, until she heard a voice after a moment, deep and intimidating, “As you wish.”
“Thank you,” Tang Yu quietly sighed in relief.
Listening to Ye Sihan sounded agreeable, but only on the condition that she did not cross his bottom line.
Once she provoked him, the consequences were unimaginable.
After the meal, Tang Yu got up to follow Ye Sihan, but due to her nerves, she tripped over the leg of the table, and her body unsteadily toppled to the side—
“Ah!” Tang Yu’s eyes widened in alarm, her mind buzzing, not expecting such a blunder.
Bracing for embarrassment, she closed her eyes as she fell, but then felt a tightening around her waist, and a strong arm pulled her back, crashing into a solid “wall.”
Opening her eyes, she found herself entirely in Ye Sihan’s arms.
And her hands instinctively clutched at the black shirt on his chest, the searing heat almost scalding her through the fabric.
Meeting those black-hole-like eyes seemed as if they could suck her in and shatter her.
Tang Yu’s heart raced erratically, unsure if it was from the shock or something else.
