Rebirth: Professional Substitute

Chapter 28 -Begging YanMingXiu To Stay

ZhouXiang received a call from CaiWei in the evening. CaiWei was very excited to tell him that Director Wang might be working with WangYuDong again on his next film and that WangYuDong's company still wanted him to be his stuntman.

ZhouXiang was very surprised, "Director Wang would still work with WangYuDong? How could that be when they can barely get along?"

"Director Wang is not willing but the investor wanted to use WangYuDong. The box office would be guaranteed with him. They're in the midst of negotiating over this at the moment. There should be a compromise in the end."

ZhouXiang felt a bit exhausted, "Wei Ge, this time I don't want to be in it."

"What? Why?"

"You know what happened last time. WangYuDong definitely won't see me pleasing to his eyes. I also feel a bit awkward. You say, what happens if the two of them go at it and use me as the scapegoat? I'd be too unlucky. This money, I rather not earn. I don't want to drown in this muddle water."

"Your concern is also reasonable, but our President Wang is also one of the main investors this time. He wouldn't be that petty."

"I feel that he finds me aggravating, might as well avoid it. I really don't want to do it." If it was only because of what happened last time, ZhouXiang isn't too worried. But WangYuDong had already found out about him and YanMingXiu. If he didn't give him that detestable expression, it would be strange. Not to mention working together, he'd rather stay as far away from him as possible.

CaiWei said pitifully, "Alright, it's your own business. I have other work for you anyway."

"By the way, LanXiRong is going to play the supporting male role. He's now the company's sole popular artist. President Wang has really put in a lot of effort on him."

"That's a good thing. This kid can carry the weight. He's never failed to live up to President Wang's expectations."

CaiWei echoed his words, "Right, he actually thought you would continue to be WangYuDong's stuntman and was ecstatic saying that you guys would be acting in the same scenes. Even if you can't reveal your face, he was still happy. This kid is very grateful, wanting to repay you. He's really good to you."

ZhouXiang smiled, "How could this be considered as having scenes together? He should be concentrating on his acting. I'm a martial arts stuntman, how can I be acting in the same scenes with him?"

"You can resolve that yourself when he comes and complain to you."

The two of them chatted about other things and then ended the call.

ZhouXiang looked at the calendar. It's been three days since his fight with YanMingXiu. YanMingXiu had not returned and is not answering his phone. He's always like this, completely ignoring and neglecting people whenever he felt like it. ZhouXiang can't even do anything about it.

Just when he was about to find something to eat, he heard sounds coming from the front door. Someone is opening the door from the outside.

ZhouXiang bolted in to the living room and sure enough, YanMingXiu opened the door and came in.

ZhouXiang was a little excited, "You're back."

YanMingXiu looked at him coldly, "Need to get something." As he was saying this, he went to the study to grab a folder from a drawer.

ZhouXiang followed him into the study and closed the door. He says seriously, "MingXiu, let's talk about it?"

"Don't have time," YanMingXiu didn't lift his head. He checked the contents of the folder and intended to leave.
