Chapter 396: Who Is More Important
Ye Shengge was shocked. “You… You’re going to visit me during the day?”
Ji Shiting’s eyes dimmed seeing how terrified she was.
“Aren’t I an investor?” He said. “You don’t want me to go, do you?”
“Of course… not” She couldn’t imagine the man appearing on set. “I just don’t think it’s necessary.”
“I think it’s necessary,” the man said. He stroked her face with his fingers and said, “Have you finished, huh?”
Ye Shengge was dazed.
“Um… Not yet.”
“That long?” He was a bit impatient.
“I usually take a week. It’s only the fifth day,” she said guiltily.
“Does Director Chen know your birthmark?” The man raised an eyebrow.
Ye Shengge pursed her lips and shook her head. She had thought she could solve the birthmark before meeting Director Chen, but something had happened. She had chosen to hide it today, so she had covered it with foundation and concealment, but… she suddenly realized that she couldn’t delay anymore.
If she chose to act in Director Chen’s movie, it would mean that she had to get rid of the birthmark. If she didn’t want to get rid of it, she should quit the show immediately. She couldn’t tell Chen Anzhi about it until filming started, right? That would be too unprofessional.
“What’s wrong?” Ji Shiting seemed to realize something. He held her face and looked at her.
“I…” She wet her lips, struggling internally.
She didn’t want to make things difficult for him, but they were already husband and wife. No matter what choice she made, he had to bear the consequences with her, so she should let him know.
Ye Shengge stared at the man’s deep eyes. Should she trust him? She trusted him completely.
Ji Shiting could tell that she was hesitating, so he didn’t rush her but waited patiently.
Ye Shengge’s lips twitched. At this moment, she heard a shrill female voice, “Ji Shiting!”
Ye Shengge was shocked and looked out of the window.
It was Ling Yutong?
Ji Shiting’s eyes dimmed, and he wound down the window. Ye Shengge was about to climb into the front passenger seat, but Ji Shiting still held her waist tightly, not letting her move.
She had no choice but to maintain this ambiguous position. If anyone else saw this, she might feel awkward, but since the audience was Ling Yutong, she didn’t mind being more intimate with Ji Shiting.
“What’s wrong?” The man said coldly.
Ling Yutong stood outside and saw the two of them leaning against each other. Her eyes turned red.
“Director Chen just told me that he has decided to let Ye Shengge be the lead actress.” Ling Yutong looked sad. “What did you do to make Director Chen make such a decision? Is she that important to you?”
Ye Shengge was furious. Although Ji Shiting had helped her get the chance, she had gotten the role on her own.
“So what if I am?” Ji Shiting said calmly. “She’s my wife. I can still fight for her.”
“You…” Ling Yutong looked at the man’s handsome face and suddenly recalled what Xie Siqi had told her that day.
She was the man’s childhood friend, and she had been with him for more than ten years. She even gave birth to Little Zheng.
However, that man treated the other woman like a treasure.
Her disappointment was replaced by jealousy and indignation. She clenched her fist and said, “Ji Shiting, have you forgotten that I’m Chen Anzhi’s photographer? Director Chen and I have collaborated on three shows, and we’re about to collaborate on the fourth. Do you think I, the photographer who cooperated with him, is more important, or Ye Shengge, the lead actress?”
“Ling Yutong!” Ji Shiting said coldly.
“I don’t plan to threaten anyone.” She lifted her chin and said calmly and professionally. “It’s just that I can’t work with her objectively. There is no way the both of us can be on the same set.”
