228: Invitation

Invitation

After the conversation with Fu Hanzheng, her agent asked her to go downstairs for lunch.1

After lunch, Jolin brought the makeup artist and the assistant to the room and started to do the makeup for the promotional event taking place in the afternoon.

The moment the makeup was done, the executive producer came in with a bag of things.

"Weiwei, this is coffee and your dress."

"We already have a dress." Jolin said.

He had a makeup artist with him, and he had already made a plan for the dress and the makeup for the entire day. He did not need any dresses from the crew.

The executive producer smiled awkwardly and said shyly, "Weiwei, you are a pretty girl, but Li Xing'er is the lead character of the movie. You will steal the show if you dress so prettily. So, could you please… you know…"

Mu Weiwei was a very young and pretty girl who was much better than Li Xing'er, in both looks and manner.

She was definitely going to steal the show when they were in the same frame but she was only the supporting actress and so she must not stand out.

Jolin brought out the clothes from the bag, as well as a pair of black-frame glasses, and tossed them onto the sofa speechlessly.

"So you mean she needs to become ugly just to make Li Xing'er stand out?"

"Not become ugly, just not that exquisitely-dressed." The executive producer said with embarrassment.

"You can just have plastic surgery if you are not good-looking, why must we obey her rules?" Jolin said ruthlessly.

She was not good-looking and so she complained that his own girl was too pretty?

"Agent Jolin, we are doing this for the movie, please, work with us…"

"We…"

"Jolin!" Gu Weiwei stopped her agent, stood up and said, "Don't put the crew into an awkward position! The promotion should focus upon the two lead roles."

The executive producer wiped off the sweat on his forehead and thanked her endlessly.

Jolin said, "This must be Li Xing'er's stupid idea! Why must we obey them?"

"She is the lead role of the movie and won't I attract mean comments if I stand out too much?"

Gu Weiwei brought out the outfits the executive producer gave to her and got changed in the bathroom.

When she came out, she looked like a nerdy student dressed in casual clothes.

Jolin rolled his eyes out of anger.

She had a pair of nice eyes but the glasses covered them up, making her look nerdy.

Li Xing'er, on the other hand, was dressed in a small white gown at the event, looking innocent and cute.

Gu Weiwei spent the entire time trying to make Li Xing'er stand out.

Fu Shiyi was a good-looking, skilled singer and dancer, who kept interacting with the audience.

He and Li Xing'er were cooperating well with each other and the effect turned out to be unexpectedly great.

The moment the event finished, Fu Shiyi proudly asked her for praise.

"How is it? My lines must have worked pretty well right? My brother must have become so moved."

"Damn you, I almost got sent back!" Gu Weiwei rolled her eyes at him.

Fu Shiyi said, "My lines are so passionately-written, but they didn't work?"

Gu Weiwei removed her glasses and urged him, "Let's just go back as soon as possible and after dinner we can head to the airport."

She was always on her edge when she was here, and she needed to leave as soon as possible.

It was, after all, not the right time for her to deal with Ling Yan yet.

The moment they returned to the hotel, Kuroda Shio and two of his men, who had been waiting for them at the hotel, greeted them.

"Miss. Mu, Mr. Gu has invited you to dinner."

Gu Weiwei stayed silent for a moment and said, "Thank you for your invitation, but we need to catch a plane and go home."

Kuroda Shio slightly lowered his head and threatened her.

"Miss. Mu, Mr. Gu has been waiting for you for a long time. If you miss the dinner, you may not be able to leave this place."
