Chapter 401: The Cannibal Tribe Welcomes You
As soon as she had spoken, the air suddenly fell silent.
A chilling coldness spread like the claws of a demon, slowly reaching for everyone’s necks.
Yang Li shivered all over. How familiar this sensation was...
With a swift turn of her head, she saw Lu Hualiang standing at the entrance to the president’s office, his expression as fierce as Asura.
That look in his eyes...
Little brother, you’re on your own now.
Yang Jian held a large bouquet of rose flowers, his legs trembling with fear.
Who am I, where am I, have I done something wrong again?
"There’s a war among the cannibal tribe in the Caribbean Sea, Yang Jian, go and offer some support."
Lu Hualiang spoke coldly, then turned to Xia Weibao, "You, come with me."
Xia Weibao looked left and right, completely clueless about what was happening.
She realized that Lu Hualiang’s power extended far and wide; it seemed he had influence all over the world.
And Yang Jian was so busy, always running around outside.
After Lu Hualiang and Xia Weibao went in, the five beauties in the secretarial office all heaved a sigh of relief.
That was close, thank goodness the young mistress had left a step earlier.
Otherwise, they would have been caught red-handed today.
A distraught Yang Jian was close to crying, "Bro, what did I do wrong this time?"
Yang Li raised his hand, blocking him, "Don’t call me brother, I don’t have a brother like you."
Dragging down the intelligence of the Yang family!
Yang Jian was truly innocent. Someone tell him what he did wrong.
All he did was forget to take the flowers for the young mistress, and he was just helping to bring them over. Why was he being reassigned?
And it was to the cannibal tribe, scarier than feeding lions.
In the end, Yang Jian was still dragged away.
As for Xia Weibao, Lu Hualiang had caught her and confined her at home for two days.
No snacks, the internet cut off, and nobody was allowed to speak a word to her.
For a foodie and internet addict, this was a particularly cruel punishment.
She was so angry she almost killed Lu Hualiang!
Only after two days, when the post-production of "Allure" was completed and ready to air, was Xia Weibao allowed to resume her normal work and let out of her cage.
This was the first production Xia Weibao had worked on since crossing over, and it was critical for overturning her fortunes.
After several months of lengthy filming, the time had finally come to see the finished product, and she was very excited.
She arrived at Hongtu bright and early, only to find the company atmosphere oppressively gloomy.
Upon reaching the office by elevator, she pushed open the door, only to be met with a dense atmosphere of low spirits.
"Director Chen, think it over once more. Although ’Allure’ is a small production, it’s certainly no worse than the big-budget ones. I have confidence that... hello, hello, hello?"
Beep...beep...beep...
Listening to the busy tone from the phone, Xu Jiayang let out a heavy sigh, his face etched with world-weariness.
Meanwhile, Leng Yan was grim-faced the entire time, his mood obviously very foul.
He looked towards Xia Shi, who was making phone calls on the couch.
She put down the phone and shook her head at him.
Clearly, she had also failed.
With a loud snap, Leng Yan slammed his pen down into the pen holder and leaned back.
Adark and brooding air enveloped his entire being.
Xia Weibao walked in, "What’s wrong?"
Why is everyone looking so downcast?
Xu Jiayang let out another heavy sigh, "No platform is willing to air ’Allure’."
Although they had anticipated this situation, he had thought that if the major platforms refused, smaller ones would take it.
But to their dismay, even the lesser-known video sites were unwilling to accept it.
"Allure" was the hope of everyone involved, from the investors to the minor actors. So many people were counting on this show for a turnaround.
But if no platform was willing to air it, all was lost!
