Instead of taking Guo Jie's lead Li Na turned back facing Lu Jun-hui before she asked him, her tone malicious. "Second Master Lu, do I suppose to know this lady?"
In other words, she was commissioning Lu Jun-hui if Guo Jie is someone related to Li Na's life, then why he didn't mention Guo Jie in their brainstorming session.
"Ya, about that..." Lu Jun-hui opened his mouth to explain to her but he didn't know of this lady before as a Manager Guo Jie until yesterday night. "Ah...it was just a spontaneous decision." He received a copy of Guo Jie's profile to hired her as Li Na's manager just the day before.
"Li Na meet your new manager, Miss Guo." Lu Jun-hui stated. Guo Jie hastened over to introduce herself to Li Na. "Hello, Miss Li Na. Myself Guo Jie, your manager. Don't worry I'll look after you well."
Seeing the extended hand of once blacklisted Manager Guo Jie's for helping her. Coldness flashed through Li Na's gaze. Just as she was thinking who dared to lift the ban going against the power of Warren's and Zhang's, her concern itching to know as if someone has purposely let this bad dog get in her way...
~Who let the dogs out, woof, woof, woof~
Hearing the bark again, Li Na's lips twitched in annoyance.
~Who let the dogs out, woof, woof, woof~
Behind Li Na's back, Lu Jun-hui's cell phone cried suddenly, his ringtone stealing the spotlight and attention. Apart from Li Na, all other spectators were shocked by the sounds they heard in the name of the ringtone. Moreover, not in their wildest dream, they could have imagined that the person whose phone rang was none other than their Second young master and Junior CEO Lu.
~Who let the dogs out, woof, woof, woof~
Lu Jun-hui was stiff for a moment from the phone's buzzing, before he coughed.
Loudly clearing his throat, he pulled out his phone and mute the bark. "Everyone, get back to your work. Now or..." he paused. " Your salary this month will be deducted to..." before he could finish the crowd dispersed immediately bowing their heads.
Lu Jun-hui smiled proudly these words worked like magic. Why didn't he thought before? He then answered the phone, "Hello, Baby Tao..."
Before he could speak further, a loud roar that Lu Jun-hui's eardrums almost exploded came through the phone.
" What the hell you did! How could you replace the female lead without my knowledge? Do you realize how important this movie is in my career? And you want to spoil it giving the lead role to that dead face woman. Are we not doing enough of her branding? Now we're giving roles like charity...so that she can destroy the whole movie." Bai Tian was furious like hell as he continued.
"You got to be kidding me! She lost the competition fair and square. She didn't even pass the screening test of a side character and you made her lead..."
Just then remembering something, Lu Jun-hui covered the phone speaker with the other hand and called manager Guo Jie forward.
He whispered lowly. "If you don't wish to replace your artist then quickly bring the contract and get it signed." Lu Jun-hui gave some advice to Guo Jie. "Yes, Boss." Guo Jie quickly nodded.
Li Na overheard the whole conversation and even understood the matter. It didn't take long for the quick-witted woman to see the man behind the scene who caused this commotion.
Her loose fist tighten. She was so tempted to look at the cornered camera and glared at him but no... the man has let the dogs out to test Mei Xing how could she disappoint him.
'Lu Jianjun! You're not only forcing me to come out but you're also making it obvious for me to conclude. I'm very much sure that woman in your head Mei Xing.' She sighed buckling up her guts she's not going to fall this time at any cost or by anyone.
Just then Guo Jie whispered into her ears stiffening Li Na's back, her expression's stunned.
At Lu Enterprises main security control center.
A tall, strong man stood in front of the large wall placed with big rectangular screen division showing the live recording of the different main subdivision companies under Lu Corporation.
In the middle of the dark shaded room, Lu Jianjun stood a few meters away from the screen, casually leaning against a long glass table, before him several operators sat monitoring and controlling the various surveillance footages.
The employees were nervous tried to focus on their work as it happened rarely that their prominent CEO visited this control hub personally. His hands tucked into his trouser pockets as his eyes keenly observing the screen.
It's been more than fifteen minutes he was staring at a particular receptacle screen, which was displaying the Glam Queen's first-floor view. He examined Li Na standing there alone as everyone left just the scenario. He watched everything from the start and live telecast in high definition clarity.
Just as Lu Jianjun glanced at his wristwatch, his meeting scheduled to start in the next ten minutes. He turns to walk toward his floor.
Suddenly, his back stiffened, his expressions became hard. A tempered headache grew over. Snubbing the pain, Lu Jianjun turns to take a last look of the fearless girl. Turning his head to the left, Lu Jianjun's gaze fell on her, his eyes settled there for longer. She has been a distracting him a lot lately. All he could think of and left on his mind was the girl nicknamed 'Mei Xing'.
On the screen, after Lu Jun-hui left, Guo Jie guardedly walked towards Li Na sneakily looking for people around them. Then Guo Jie slowly whispered near Li Na's ear.
Earlier, Lu Jianjun didn't intend to confront Li Na the way he did. Even he didn't know why he became so impatient and restless about her as impulsively he couldn't stop himself from attacking her. Cause if she is Mei Xing, then this girl could be a very big deal for him. He won't rethink or do any compromise over to take the girl's life.
Lu Jianjun's pupil dilated freezing his expressions. He didn't even need to ask the operator to replay or translate what Guo Jie said. He clearly read her lip movements.
"Thank God, Li Na! You're alive I thought our plan failed." Guo Jie smiled and added, "Come with me, I've to tell you something important." then she took Li Na to her cabin where there were no cameras. She even pulled the cord of blind curtain covering the glass window.
