Ye Guiwan and Zhao Yingnan were talking face to face.

The two of them were absent-minded, occasionally glancing at Song Qingyou, who was talking to the Ji father and son.

Song Qingyou met their gazes and decided to go over and chat.

Zhao Yingnan looked at her worriedly. “Qingyou, are you okay? Teacher Ji doesn’t seem to want to make things difficult for you…”

Ye Guiwan uttered a single syllable with an unknown meaning, “This is the first time I’ve seen Teacher Ji treat someone so kindly. He definitely won’t make things difficult for her. Look over there.”

Ye Guiwan winked at Song Qingyou and looked to her right.

The two of them followed her line of sight.

“He’s Teacher Ji’s son! He seems to be looking at Qingyou.”

Song Qingyou smiled at Ji Yuan.

“It seems like he was ordered by Teacher Ji to take care of Qingyou,” Ye Guiwan guessed.

“Qingyou, are you the daughter of a hidden wealthy family? Otherwise, why would Teacher be so polite?”

“Teacher Ji and I have business cooperation.” Song Qingyou replied vaguely.

Ye Guiwan and Zhao Yingnan could only think of Shengshi Entertainment.

Ji Hui did have a management company.

At least Zhao Yingnan believed that the two of them had cooperated.

Even though Ye Guiwan knew Ji Hui’s personality, she couldn’t think of a better explanation, let alone ask him about it.

The three of them quickly skipped over this matter, and Song Qingyou took the initiative to mention Ji Yuan.

Zhao Yingnan was not familiar with Ji Yuan and only talked about a few rumors she’d heard.

For example, Ji Yuan used to visit Shen Xiyan at work. After Shen Xiyan became famous, she ’persuaded’ him to quit.

Another example was that Shen Xiyan had a lot of resources in the early days, which were obtained through Ji Yuan. The reason why Time Media rose so quickly was also related to Ji Yuan.

Some rumors were true and some were false.

However, she could also tell that Ji Yuan’s attitude towards Shen Xiyan was not ordinary.

Compared to Zhao Yingnan, Ye Guiwan, Ji Hui’s student, knew more.

“Most of the rumors are true.” Ye Guiwan lowered her voice. “The Shen family’s focus isn’t on the entertainment industry. Time Media’s development is all thanks to our teacher’s help.”

“Teacher was happy to see this happen at first. Later on, he probably saw what kind of person Shen Xiyan was and sent Ji Yuan abroad.”

“What kind of person?” Zhao Yingnan was puzzled.

Ye Guiwan smiled. “She knew that Ji Yuan liked her, but she didn’t accept or reject him. She kept hanging on to Ji Yuan.”

However, she still held her status as the daughter of the Shen family and looked down on the Ji family.

“That’s quite scheming.” Zhao Yingnan commented.

“One is willing to fight, and the other is willing to suffer.” Song Qingyou’s expression was cold.

“Yes, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer. We can only watch the show.”

Ye Guiwan glanced at Ji Yuan. “But compared to Shen Xiyan, the teacher’s order is more important. Didn’t you see him standing there without moving?” “He seems to be looking over there?”

Zhao Yingnan looked in the direction of Ji Yuan’s gaze in confusion.

The three of them looked through the crowd and soon saw Shen Xiyan, who looked impatient.

“Shen Xiyan is being pestered! No wonder Ji Yuan is so worried.”

Ye Guiwan gloated.

“Who’s holding her back?” Song Qingyou asked curiously.

“An Sui.”

“Who is that?”

“A director.”

Zhao Yingnan replied and came back to her senses. “Qingyou, you don’t know him?”

“Should 1 know him?” Song Qingyou asked.

Ye Guiwan chuckled. “It’s not that we have to know everyone, but many people here know each other.”

“Qingyou, what do you usually do? Don’t you listen to gossip when you’re free?”

Song Qingyou was speechless.

Thinking back to her usual schedule, if there were any jobs, she would rush them. If there were no jobs, she would write new books and scripts. The laboratory needed her guidance from time to time. She also had to read the company’s reports. When she was free, she had to teach the children how to play the piano…

Where would she find the time to listen to gossip?

She couldn’t possibly let Chen Lan report everything that had nothing to do with her, right?

Ye Guiwan looked at Song Qingyou and said, “I forgot, Qingyou has a whole company to take care of. Plus filming. She doesn’t have that much time.”

Zhao Yingnan nodded and helped to explain, “An Sui is notorious in the circle.”

“Notorious?” Song Qingyou was surprised. What kind of person would be described with this word?

“Yes, notorious. It’s not that he’s evil. It’s his luck.”

“What do you mean?” Song Qingyou was interested.

Ye Guiwan and Zhao Yingnan echoed each other and began to explain.

An Sui’s family background was not bad. His family wanted him to inherit the family business, but he was unwilling and went to become a director.

When Song Qingyou heard this, she immediately thought of Xu Mingrui.

“Xu Mingrui is the same. Did they clash with each other?”

“It’s different.” Zhao Yingnan shook her head decisively. “Director Xu went abroad to study and majored in directing. After he came back, he signed a contract with you. His first drama was a hit. His luck is simply heaven-defying.”

Ye Guiwan continued, “An Sui is completely self-taught. In fact, some of his short films are not bad. For the sake of the An family, many people were willing to invest in his film projects.”

“And then?”

“Then something happened to his production team. One of the main actors had a conflict with the prop master and fell off the wire. One actor went to the hospital and another went to jail. The leading actor’s fans and family members made the crew unable to work, and the movie was left in limbo.”

Zhao Yingnan also sighed.

“The second movie was a horror movie. It was reported to be spreading wrong values and promoting feudal superstition. It was not released even after it finished filming.”

“The third movie was also lost due to copyright disputes.”

“The fourth movie’s male and female leads were caught cheating on each other. The impact was too great and they were banned. The investors immediately withdrew their investments.”

Song Qingyou was speechless. “This is too tragic.”

Four consecutive works were all ruined because of other people or external factors, but An Sui himself did nothing.

He was really too unlucky.

Compared to him, Xu Mingrui’s luck was indeed heaven-defying.

Not long ago, because of the drama The Editorial Room, his net worth had risen by quite a bit.

Ye Guiwan couldn’t help but laugh. “People in the industry say that God is urging him to go back and inherit the family property.”

“Maybe that’s the case.”

Song Qingyou, who had traveled through many worlds, somewhat believed in this mysterious theory.

“Then why is he pestering Shen Xiyan now?”

“Probably looking for some investors.” Ye Guiwan replied, “Those investment companies want to stay far away from An Sui so that they won’t be affected by bad luck.”

“He should have known Shen Xiyan before, so he wanted Time Media to invest in his new movie.”

Zhao Yingnan heard more about it and added, “I heard that they want to make a big production Xianxia movie. Just the initial investment will cost one billion.”

Ye Guiwan gasped, “Doesn’t he know his place? He know that he’s so unlucky, yet still dares to make such a big move?”

Zhao Yingnan smiled and spread her hands. “No one knows what he thinks.”

Song Qingyou: “Maybe it’s because he’s not willing to give in..”
