Chapter 402 Do You Still Want to Be This Female Lead?

Mu Feng sighed and said, "Send me your location. I want to see what kind of monster this so-called director is!"

Soon, Cheng Xiao shared her location with him.

He opened the navigation and saw that it would take about a two-hour drive to get there, so he rushed over without delay.

As he was heading towards the mountainous area, Cheng Xiao had already run into trouble.

It was already evening, and after a day of filming, she was preparing to return to her RV to rest.

Of course, this RV was not her personal property, but one assigned to her by the company.

Just as she was about to get into the vehicle, she saw a man with a potbelly, a small mustache, and wearing a gray vest and glasses walking towards her.

The man with glasses smiled lewdly, leaned heavily against the RV door, and said with a chuckle, "Little Xiao, you're heading back to your RV as soon as it gets dark?"

Cheng Xiao stared at him with disgust and said, "I'm not feeling well and want to rest. Director Liu, please move aside!"

"Oh, what's wrong? I studied massage and can give you a good one!"

As he spoke, Director Liu prepared to touch her, his lecherous hands reaching out.

Cheng Xiao quickly retreated a few steps: "No need, I can just sleep for a while!"

"Oh, young people must take care of their health. I have considerable insight into health preservation. Looking at your condition, it seems serious!"

Director Liu was talking nonsense, but Cheng Xiao was not fooled.

"I will go for a medical check-up later. Director Liu, please move aside. I am really tired and need to rest!"

Cheng Xiao rubbed her temples, already regretting taking on this movie.

What was most problematic was that her entire management team was abroad for advanced studies.

The reason they went for further training was to serve her better, which gave Director Liu an opportunity.

Director Liu chuckled, his smile gradually freezing: "Xiao Xiao, your acting is indeed good, but that doesn't give you the capital to be arrogant. There are many actresses who want to be the lead. I can replace you at any time since we haven't shot many scenes yet!"

Cheng Xiao's pretty face instantly darkened: "After shooting for so many days and wasting so much time, how can you replace me so casually? Our company invested eighty percent in this film, how can you do this?"

Frankly speaking, Director Liu was working for Mu Feng.

"Tsk, tsk, there are unspoken rules in the entertainment industry. I won't say much about newcomers like you who don't understand the rules!"

"But I've reminded you so many times, and you still haven't realized it. That means you lack discernment!"

Director Liu's true colors were finally showing.

Cheng Xiao's beauty was truly top-notch, something Director Liu had rarely seen in his life. Naturally, he wanted to taste it quickly.

"I don't accept this. Please leave immediately!" she stamped her foot.

"Tsk, tsk, interesting. Xiao Xiao, I'll say this now: if you don't accept the unspoken rules, you don't have to be the female lead!"

Director Liu smiled confidently, a move that had always worked in his career.

In his eyes, Cheng Xiao had become his plaything, someone he could toy with at any moment.

However, Cheng Xiao clearly didn't fall for his tactics. She rebuked, "How can someone like you exist? You can't force people! If I don't play the female lead, then so be it! What's the big deal?"

"You said it yourself. Don't regret it!" Director Liu's facial muscles twitched.

"Now, please move aside!" Cheng Xiao's eyes were red.

Soon, a woman in tight leopard-print leather pants walked over, looking incredibly alluring.

She held a lady's cigarette between her fingers and blew out a smoke ring, saying, "Director Liu, I've been with you for so long. You're not really planning to have me play a maid, are you?"

Upon seeing the woman, Director Liu chuckled and said, "Oh, it's Little Tian. Do you want to be the female lead?"

As soon as he said this, the woman's excitement surged, and she clung to Director Liu like a snake.

"Director Liu, are you serious? You can't just lie to people!"

He chuckled, "How could I lie to you? But tsk, tsk, there's a price to pay!"

"Don't be like that. Didn't we already... well, shall we continue tonight?" the woman asked shyly, lightly punching his chest.

Director Liu clearly wasn't very interested in her. He continued, "That sister of yours is quite good. Isn't she here with you playing around? Bring her along tonight, and the female lead role is yours!"

The woman became jealous: "Hmph, does Director Liu think I'm not beautiful enough?"

"Oh, what are you saying? Don't I have to show favor to everyone? Hurry up, do you still want to be the female lead? There are many people lining up behind you!" Director Liu showed a hint of displeasure.

Seeing this, the woman quickly said, "Okay, okay, I'll bring her tonight. You're so annoying!"

Director Liu glared fiercely at Cheng Xiao before leaving arrogantly.

"You slut, just you wait. I won't bother you today, but tomorrow, let's see if you don't kneel and beg me?"

"This is the female lead role! I don't believe you can give it up so easily!"

He thought to himself that Director Liu still felt he had Cheng Xiao in his grasp.

When Director Liu left, Cheng Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, quickly got into the RV, and locked the door.

About two hours later, Mu Feng arrived at the filming location.

"Mr. Mu, you've finally arrived. You must be tired after such a long drive. Get in the car, and I'll give you a good massage!"

With that, she pulled Mu Feng into the car.

Sitting on the sofa opposite, Cheng Xiao began to massage his shoulders.

Her fair and tender hands applied just the right amount of pressure, making Mu Feng feel a surge of warmth throughout his body, chasing away all fatigue.

"Has that director caused you any trouble yet?" he asked.

Cheng Xiao shook her head and said, "He just did..."

Then, she recounted everything that had happened two hours earlier.

Mu Feng let out a cold snort: "Does President You dare to hire anyone? The director can be changed tomorrow!"

"Ah? Mr. Mu, if you change the director now, will it affect the quality of the movie?" she asked with concern.

Mu Feng said meaningfully, "In my opinion, if a director's character is not good, he cannot produce any good works. So, it doesn't matter if he's replaced!"

At that moment, Director Liu was unaware that Mu Feng's single sentence had directly ended his career.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the RV door.

Outside the door was Director Liu, who was knocking relentlessly and shouting, "Open the door! Damn it, open the door!"

"The director is outside!" Cheng Xiao muttered with a helpless pout.

Mu Feng smiled slightly: "Let me see what kind of chaos he can cause!" Saying this, he walked over and opened the car door.
