Chapter 677: Chapter 677: Are You Addicted to Biting? (3)

Thinking of this, Lu Wanwan decided to sneak out of the venue and go back to the hotel to lock her door!

She didn’t take the same route, but instead headed straight for the main entrance.

Even though there were quite a few reporters waiting outside the main entrance, eager to cover the film festival, some from MG and others from Jin’an.

But she was dressed very casually today, and with a badge hanging on her, those reporters who followed the spotlight wouldn’t pay attention to someone like her.

In the foyer of the auditorium, Wei Cheng had a sycophantic smile on his face as he dealt with some investors.

After several setbacks, he left with a look of utter defeat on his face.

His expression was dark, and the wine glass in his hand seemed ready to shatter from his grip.

Coincidence or not, his new film was preparing quite well until after that conversation with Gu Annan; not only did it fail to get support from the Gu family, but thereafter all the investors withdrew their funding.

All of them withdrew!

Without the favor of investors, producers also began to pull out.

Such a grand project ended up concluding in such a dismal manner.

Of course, he wasn’t resigned to this; since then, he had been searching for investors and producers for the project.

He lowered his demands to investors step by step, but still, there was no improvement.

Now, he could only try his luck at this not-very-commercial and insignificant small film festival, yet he was still undesired, with not a soul interested.

It was hard to believe that a man like Wei Cheng, once so successful, could fall into such a wretched state.

In this film festival, which he previously would have scorned, he didn’t know how many glasses he had toasted or how many fake smiles he had offered, as those people looked down at him as if he were a lost dog.

Wei Cheng downed the wine in his glass in one gulp.

His face flushed a bit red, he decided to leave this humiliating place.

He planned to go out and indulge in a night of revelry, venting all the pent-up emotions.

He hadn’t left yet when he saw a woman with a backpack just entering the foyer.

Even though she was dressed so simply, and even her make-up was clean and sheer, compared to the actresses besides her in their dresses and heavy makeup, the difference was clear at a glance.

Most importantly, her face was incredibly familiar.

He had found himself thinking about her countless times over the past few days.

Because only after watching an entertainment news segment did he find out that the woman who had escaped from him at the bar was Gu Annan’s ex-wife.

After the alcohol entered his system, that sense of unfair resentment inside him swelled countless times over.

He had fallen to this state because of her ex-husband, Gu Annan!

He put down the empty glass and quickened his pace toward the woman.

"Miss Lu." Wei Cheng deliberately followed her to a less crowded spot before he hurriedly stepped forward and blocked her path, "I didn’t expect we’d meet again."

After Lu Wanwan’s initial surprise, seeing him again made her remember this persistent figure, "Director Wei."

"Miss Lu remembers me, I’m truly flattered," Wei Cheng’s face held a discomforting smile.

Last time at that bar, this director had nagged Lu Wanwan twice.

In the end, she had barely managed to get away from him when she left, and she didn’t expect to bump into him here again.

"Director Wei, I’ve already told you many times previously. I have no interest in your new film, nor do I have any plans to enter the entertainment industry. It’s no use talking to me about it, I believe Director Wei will soon find a female lead who suits your preference here," she said coldly.
