Chapter 230: Chapter 220 Press Conference (2)
Translator: 549690339
Mu Yingās smile was both eager and enthusiastic, with a hint of cunning and greed hidden deep in his eyes.
A decent appearance, but not very likeable.
At least if he had developed his career in China, he might not have been as popular as he is now.
Mu Ying did not pay much attention to the attitude of Shang Guan, and went straight to look at Daisy Zane. He placed the wine in his hand beside the chessboard: āThis beautiful lady, can we get to know each other?ā
Shang Guan suddenly raised his head to look at Mu Ying, his expression much more intense than just now.
He wished he could tear him apart with his eyes alone.
Michael Jackson and Juan Wright, who had been watching the comings and goings of people near Daisy Zane, stood up straight when they saw Mu Ying put the wine down beside the chessboard.
Both looked ready to slaughter anyone who dared to covet their Third Masterās woman. Eyes were not needed if they got in the way.
Even George Dunn, who was chatting not far away, had his eyes on Mu Ying. He was closely watching Mu Yingās every move, as if he was ready to pin him down to the ground at any moment.
Daisy Zane looked at him, leaning on her chin, and sized him up and down with her eyes.
Seeing her scrutinizing gaze, Mu Yingās face showed a very confident smile and he straightened his back. In an instant, the muscles under his clothes propped up his suit.
Seeing him like this, Juan Wright practically rolled his eyes and almost threw up the meal from the night before.
Daisy Zaneās expression didnāt change at all. She finished looking him over, withdrew her gaze, and placed the chess piece she was holding onto the chessboard.
Mu Yingās gaze swept across her waist, and seeing that she didnāt care about him, he chuckled, āThis lady, my name is Billy Allen. And yours?ā
Daisy Zane did not raise her head, saying: āFlynn Ninevara.ā
āFlynn?ā] Mu Ying paused for a moment. He looked at Shang Guan and then at Daisy Zane, and said, āAre you the screenwriter?ā
āMm-hmm.ā Daisy Zane replied softly.
Mu Ying laughed again, āThen you must have heard of me?ā
āNo.ā Daisy Zane still didnāt look up, āWho are you?ā
Shang Guan felt a little better inside and turned to look at the chessboard, continuing to arrange the chess pieces.
Mu Ying glanced at Shang Guan again and quickly became convinced that she was just venting her anger: āMiss Ninevara must have heard about me saying some offensive things.ā
āYes.ā Shang Guan said sarcastically, āOur ignorant selves are not worthy of knowing a great actor like you. Iām afraid your artistry would defile us.ā
Billy Allen sneered, ignoring Shang Guan, and instead turned to look at Daisy Zane: āMiss Ninevara, my words may be unpleasant, but they are true. The domestic film industry is indeed not as good as abroad. Even those few films that have won international awards are not of high quality. As for the awardsā¦ I can only say that they are a consolation for your efforts.ā
āYou son of aā¦ā Shang Guan began to swear as he rose to his feet, but was quickly restrained by Michael Jackson.
Causing a scene in such a venue would definitely make headlines.
Daisy Zane paused with her hand for a moment, raised her eyes, and looked at him with a languid, indifferent expression.
āHow?ā Daisy Zaneās fingertip tapped on a chess piece.
āNana, what are you thinking?ā Shang Guan whispered.
Juan Wright looked at Daisy Zane, squinted his fox-like eyes, and had a feeling that someone was going to be in trouble.
Mu Ying bent down slightly in a gentlemanly manner, closed the distance between them, and said, āMiss Ninevara, if you become my girlfriend, Iāll act in your script. Iām a living signboard, you know. With me in it, you wonāt lack influence.ā
Juan Wright stepped forward and pushed Mu Ying back a bit, āMister, if you want to speak, just speak. Donāt get so close.ā
Mu Ying straightened his body, looked at Juan Wright, and frowned slightly, as if he was about to say something. But then he heard Juan Wrightās fist clench and crackle, and he swallowed his words.
He looked at Daisy Zane again and asked, āMiss Ninevara, what do you think? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and you should be well aware of my status.ā
Shang Guan, out of breath with anger and having tried to stand up several times to no avail while being restrained by Michael Jackson, watched on.
Unable to stand up and fight, he sat there, frustrated and unable to vent his anger.
Daisy Zane looked at Mu Ying and smiled lightly, āBut I donāt want Mr. Mu to be part of my script.ā
āYou donāt want me?ā Mu Ying asked, surprised.
āYes, I donāt want you.ā Daisy Zane insisted, āI donāt like the way you act. In other words, your acting skills donāt pass the test in my eyes.ā
Hearing these words, Shang Guan, who had been so furious he was about to take a heart-relief Dill. finally felt a little better.
āWhat?!ā] Mu Ying seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world. āYou say my acting skills donāt pass? I am an internationally renowned Best Actor, and you say I donāt pass.ā
āYes, thatās right.ā Daisy Zane said calmly, āMr. Mu doesnāt need to repeat it.ā
Mu Ying sneered again, licking his lips: āIt is precisely because of your ignorance and stupidity that the domestic film industry remains stagnant. Itās really sad! A great tragedy!ā
āSince Mr. Mu thinks itās such a tragedy, then why not return to China and save the domestic film industry?ā George Dunn came over with a glass of wine, placing it beside the chessboard. He took the glass Mu Ying had left and forcibly shoved it back into his hand, āWhatās with this disdainful attitude?ā Mu Ying snorted coldly.
āOh, right. Best Actor Mu doesnāt think much of domestic productions.ā George Dunn continued, āMu Ying is an international Best Actor.ā
Mu Ying glanced at the group of people surrounding him, and finally let his eyes rest on Daisy Zaneās face. He sneered for a moment, āSuch a beautiful shell, yet underneath lies a foolish, ignorant soul.ā
āYouāre fucking asking for death.ā Juan Wright raised his arm, about to take action, but Daisy Zane stopped him in time.
Mu Ying took a step back, intending to say something else, but seeing the expressions on Juan Wright and the othersā faces, he swallowed his words and left directly.
āTeacher, so weāre just letting him get away with this?ā
Daisy Zane picked up the wine, took a sip: āBeing scolded by someone with such flawed thinking should be expected. If he praised me, Iād think he was insulting me. ā
Juan Wright opened his mouth, suddenly feeling that there was nothing wrong with what she had said. And for some reason, he wasnāt angry anymore.
Michael Jackson smiled softly in admiration of her strong psychological resilience.
When Kevin Clark went to visit his mother, he realized what Michael Jackson had meant by āMadam and them.ā
His mother, his sister-in-law Wood, Hugo Clark, Hardy Clark, and Bonnie Maxwell were all there, along with two of his sister-in-lawās friends.
With so many people, he didnāt need to watch over them. Besides, Clark Family members were always with them.
So he greeted them briefly and left.
But as soon as he turned around, he received a call from Roy Madison, who asked him about Olivia Laneās abduction by Henry Clark.
Kevin Clark knew that for someone like Roy Madison who regarded his sister as his life, he wouldnāt let the matter go until he had gotten to the bottom of it.
So he went outside to take the call, briefly explaining the situation to Roy Madison, along with his plan to use Royās knife to kill Henry Clark.
This conversation took up some time.
So much so, that he missed one after another āhero saving the damsel in distressā moment and lost opportunities to show offā¦.
