Chapter 338: 307 Self-destruction, Vest Account (1 update)_1

Tang Su was psyching herself up when her phone on the table buzzed with an incoming message.

Flipping the phone over, Tang Su saw a message from her uncle, "I’ve told Lu Han that you’re writing a novel and I also told him that ’First Love’ was written by you."

"We’re all family here, why keep secrets from each other, right?"

Tang Su: "..."

She really did have such a good uncle.

And there was Lu Han, who had really put on an act before, already knowing that she was the writer behind "First Love," and yet he pretended in front of her as if he knew nothing.

They were really too bad.

"Hey hey hey, we all know you two are close, but could you not flaunt your love at this time?" Bai Dingkai couldn’t help but complain as he watched their ’love is thick, so am I’ display.

He really didn’t want to drag the progress any longer, considering it was a bona fide investment.

Moreover, there were also the sponsors; they had put real money into this, and every day’s delay meant more money spent.

If in the end the TV series turned out to be a flop, with viewership plummeting, that would be a losing trade.

He of course understood that making a profit or taking a loss was normal in business, but even if losses were to be made, one should minimize them as much as possible.

Time is money.

Lu Han and Tang Su snapped back to reality; Bai Dingkai had just come up with an idea, "How about this, Bai Simen, it looks like that quirky author is going to stand you up, and since everyone present is one of us, let’s just put the names of the two actresses on the table and draw lots."

"How about it?"

"Don’t you think that’s a bit too childish? Have your years of earnings relied solely on luck?" Bai Simen found Bai Dingkai’s suggestion unbelievable and instinctively retorted.

"Pfft—"

Lu Han and Tang Su’s reactions were relatively normal. Although Tang Su didn’t understand why Bai Simen would lash out at Bai Dingkai like that, she thought it was normal for two people in the same industry to disagree while selecting an actress.

However, Bai Dingxian’s reaction was extreme.

Ever since Bai Simen left the Bai Family, they seldom had such interesting moments in life, which also had to do with him not being at home for long periods.

Plus, at that time, no one knew why Bai Simen had suddenly left them without notice. Both he and Lu Han knew that Bai Simen had once had an abortion for Bai Dingkai, and that bastard Dingkai was irresponsible.

If he were Bai Simen, he would have left too.

But Bai Simen didn’t leave right after the surgery.

This matter, upon seeing Bai Simen this time, she told him and Lu Han that it was all in the past and asked them not to bring it up again.

Bai Dingxian and Lu Han had both promised her, and naturally, they would keep their word.

"Do you really have to embarrass me in front of Tang Su and the others?" Bai Dingkai glared at her, Bai Simen wasn’t like this in the past.

Of course, he also knew that Bai Simen had already told him that she was no longer the same person who would come and go at his beck and call.

She had also asked him not to have any more expectations of her.

He wanted to say he had no expectations of her, and since she was one of the partners with substantial say in the matter, then they should communicate and cooperate properly.

"Do I still have any dignity in your eyes? Fine, I’ll contact the original creator again, and also..." Bai Simen’s words were cut short as she suddenly recalled what Su Yangming had said earlier.

Turning to Su Yangming, she asked, "Mr. Su, did you just say you know ’Passion Fruit’?"

"Mhm, I know her." Su Yangming, who hadn’t received a reply from Tang Su, put his phone back on the table, glanced at Tang Su, and said, "Lu Han knows her too, he’s currently enjoying reading her ’First Love’."

"No way, Lu Han, you know that odd flower too?" Bai Dingkai couldn’t believe his eyes as he stared at Lu Han, impressed that he knew the odd flower but never mentioned it before.

"She’s not what you think, watch your words," Lu Han retorted protectively.

"Oh wow, just so you know, that odd flower is a girl. Flaunting your protection of another woman in front of Tang Su, aren’t you afraid she’ll have you kneel on durian when you get back to Hua City?" Bai Dingkai raised an eyebrow.

"That won’t happen," Tang Su interjected, confidently saying that she wouldn’t make Lu Han kneel on durian.

After all, she couldn’t bear to do it.

Bai Dingkai was genuinely frustrated with her now, "Tang Su, didn’t your family teach you not to spoil your boyfriend too much? Once a man is spoiled, he’s hard to discipline."

He spoke as if he was someone who had been there and done that.

"That’s not it, I was worried you’d make Lu Han buy durian for me to kneel on," Tang Su said, her face reddening.

"Hm? Why? I wouldn’t dare; after all, you’re the girl Lu Han cherishes most." He didn’t have the audacity to do so, and Bai Dingkai had that much self-awareness.

Besides, he would have to be incredibly spiteful to suggest such a distasteful idea to Lu Han.

"I am ’Bend the Waist for You,’ the odd flower you were talking about," Tang Su finally revealed her pseudonym in a soft voice.

Bai Dingkai: "..."

Bai Dingxian: "..."

Tang Feng: "..."

The reason Tang Feng wore the same shocked expression as the Bai brothers was because he had no clue his little sister could write novels, let alone write one that was being adapted into a TV series!

Tang Su had truly brought honor to their family.

Why had she kept such wonderful news a secret all this time?

She should have been proudly announcing it instead.

His sister was impressive indeed, worthy of her literature studies.

"Sorry, I really just wanted to make some extra money, and besides, I don’t know anything about turning novels into scripts. How could I, an outsider, offer advice to professionals, right?"

Seeing that no one else was speaking, Tang Su continued to explain in a soft voice.

Under the table, Tang Su’s hand, which rested on her thigh, clenched nervously. Beside her, Lu Han reached out to gently grasp it, helping to ease her tense and guilty feelings.

"You don’t need to say sorry. Even if you continue not to give advice now, neither of them can force you," Lu Han declared loudly, reassuring that with his support, she had nothing to fear.

Bai Dingkai wanted to say something, but he repeatedly opened his mouth without being able to make a sound.

Damn it, the original author he had been searching for had been right next to him all along.

He remembered the first time he saw Tang Su; with just one glance, he felt she perfectly fit the temperament of the female lead and immediately wanted to invite her to play the role in the show.

The male actors they had paired her with were indeed handsome, so even if she had to do kissing or bed scenes, she wouldn’t be at a loss.

Now thinking about it, it was fortunate that Tang Su had her convictions and refused no matter what. If she had agreed, with Lu Han as such a formidable obstacle, their filming would have been obstructed as well.

Relieved, Bai Dingkai subconsciously touched his neck.

Thank goodness, or else, he may have lost his head.

As Bai Dingkai couldn’t speak, Bai Simen had no qualms about it. She stood up, reaching out to Tang Su, "Tang Su, let me reintroduce myself then, I am ’Passion Fruit.’"

Tang Su: "..."
