ONE BIRTH TWO TREASURES: THE BILLIONAIRE'S SWEET LOVE

Yun Na got his meaning. With their aroused bodies so close together, the intention was evident to both!

She was of course a little scared. The entertainment industry was messy and dangerous, after all. However, she was filled with loathing at the thought of Yun Shishi passing the audition and getting the coveted role. How proud and glamorous that woman would be thereafter?

Her jealousy was like a poisonous tree taking root in her heart. She would do anything for it.

“Director He, it’s not convenient here. Why don’t... we change location?” she suggested with an alluring smile.

“Great!” He had been waiting for this.

Huanyu Tower.

By the window, a man stood tall and upright; his deep-set eyes, proud and distant, gazed at the tall buildings outside the window.

Earlier, the board of directors had a heated argument over the female lead role for the ‘The Green Apple’ movie.

The female lead had already been decided internally. The nationwide audition was just a publicity stunt as a warm-up to the eventual release.

Lin Fengtian was absent from the board meeting, yet he made his stance clear over the phone.

He expressed his support for Yun Shishi, a newbie with superior qualities, and wanted her to play the lead role.

All the investors and producers were thoroughly upset by this and unanimously voted against it.

The role had already been set for Lu Jingtian. How could an unknown newbie come out of nowhere and enchant Lin Fengtian into selecting her?

When Lin Fengtian heard that Lu Jingtian had been selected internally, he announced his decision not to direct the show unless the female lead was Yun Shishi. The art film he wanted to direct had been reduced to shambles, and that antagonized him into making such a bold declaration.

The lead director’s threat to resign from production stunned the collective directors, and they proceeded to apologize and ask for his forgiveness.

This might be a good script, but, without Lin Fengtian, this film would be nothing.

The movie would lose half its appeal without him.

Hence, the meeting ended badly.

Lu Jingtian was also present during Yun Shishi’s audition. That breathtaking scene was still vivid in her mind, which made her all the more jealous and envious.

That Yun Shishi successfully portrayed the innocence and beauty of Yin Xiachun with her near-perfect acting. Lu Jingtian was initially satisfied with her performance at the audition, but when she saw Yun Shishi’s, she knew she could have done better.

The crying scene she had performed at the audition was overly exaggerated.

“Hmph! She is so opportunistic!” Lu Jingtian commented resentfully. Looking imploringly at Mu Yazhe, she whined, “Brother Mu, you’ll let Jingtian have this role, won’t you?”

Mu Yazhe glanced briefly at her without a word.

She held tightly onto his arm with much coyness. “Brother Mu, Jingtian really likes this novel. It is Jingtian’s biggest dream to act the character of Yin Xiachun! It is Jingtian’s little wish, so you’ll agree, right?”
