“Mu Yazhe, you really are like a kid.”

“Keep quiet!” he froze before he coldly told her off.

“Alright, I understand what you mean. You want me to tell you that Gu Xingze is not as handsome, gentle, or wealthy as you, right? You are competing with him like a kiddo. Are you really 28 years old?”

He glared coldly, caught hold of her lower jaw, and bit hard. “What a sharp tongue you have!”

She could be so pitiful at times and be very hateful at other times!

“Can you let me off, Master Mu?” she pouted, “or I’d be wasted by the time you are done with me.”

“That’d be for the best,” he coolly retorted, albeit his hands had released her by then. He plunged backward into the bathtub and settled back lazily.

She wistfully rubbed her sore wrists. This man’s arms were powerful, indeed. It was hard to imagine his strong physique, which was hidden beneath his smart suit.

Before she could sit down with a heave of relief, he reached out his arm across her waist and tugged her toward his chest, splashing water droplets all over again.

She was unprepared and tumbled on his chest. She furiously stared at him.

Looking at her, he actually found her indignant look adorable!

“I can keep his role, but…”

She looked at him with surprised anticipation, but then he abruptly trailed off. “… But what?!”

“I’ll tell Lin Fengtian when the time comes!”

He smiled to himself as he said this. While Huanyu was not the biggest investor for the movie, that did not mean he had no vetoing rights regarding role selection!

This film was filed by Huanyu Entertainment to the General Directorate of Films and provided the initial funding for the start of production. In the first place, he was the one who approved Lin Fengtian’s proposal to cast Gu Xingze in the lead role!

He was a businessman, after all. Investing in a movie was business, and he was not one to invest in something he would suffer a loss!

Gu Xingze’s appeal should not be underestimated. If this film had him as the male lead, it would be halfway toward being a box-office hit!

He had not expected her to snag the role of the female lead, though. Initially, he did not interfere with matters concerning the role selection, but after last night’s gala, he found the two leads’ interactions to be glaringly irritating.

He was a businessman and a possessive man. She was his now, so he naturally did not want other men to covet her.

As a man, he could tell that Gu Xingze had taken a fancy to her.

Was his competitor merely taking care of his junior?

It was obvious that the veteran actor wanted her for himself!

Thus, he made plans now.

Subsequently, Lin Fengtian was floored when he received Mu Yazhe’s instructions.

At first, the director assumed that the man just wanted him to take good care of the newbie. He readily agreed, then. He believed that Yun Shishi had great potential and really intended to groom her without his reminder.

However, he almost went mad when the man listed down his rules!

What bullsh*t rules are these?!

In Mu Yazhe’s rules, the most important ones were, one, no kissing scene, two, no bed scene, three, no hugging scene, four…
