Chapter 1012: Shijiu Entertainment Company’s Fierce Protection

The carefully prepared script has finally wrapped up, and Cheng Shi’en hasn’t drunk any less tonight.

He’s happy today, drinking with an open mind, almost like he’s accepting all offers.

Cheng Shi’en, company executives, partners, and the leads of "Women are Strong" are all in this private room.

Mo Leen’s assistant left the room to take a call, then returned to whisper a few words to her.

Mo Leen nodded at her assistant, picked up the glass on the table in front of her, and walked towards Cheng Shi’en seated at the head: "Director Cheng, I toast to you. Thank you for your years of guidance."

"It’s not really guidance. It’s mainly because you have the gift. You’re naturally suited for this profession."

Cheng Shi’en picked up a glass, clinked it with hers, took a sip, and placed it back on the table.

No matter how accepting he is today, he wouldn’t bottom up a glass with everyone who comes over.

There’s still a long time to socialize ahead; he can’t get so drunk that he makes a fool of himself.

Mo Leen downed her glass directly, "Director Cheng, I took a shooting advertisement in another province. There’s been a sudden change over there, and I’ve received a message that requires me to rush over tonight."

Cheng Shi’en waved his hand, "I know about it. You go ahead. We’ll have plenty of time to gather again later."

Mo Leen smiled in thanks and left with her assistant.

Gu Minmin sat next to her, the other leading lady of "Women are Strong," focused on eating.

They had also drunk two glasses earlier, their faces still flushed with an alluring red, making the two young ladies look even more charming and attractive.

As lead actresses, they naturally drew most people’s attention.

The gaze of a few partners not far away couldn’t be pulled away from them.

If they were artists from a small company, they would have already made their moves, maybe even creating some gossip-worthy affairs here in the room.

But Shijiu Entertainment Company’s actresses, no matter how tempting, they wouldn’t dare do anything rashly.

This company is very protective of their artists, and its strong reputation is well-known. Who would dare to provoke the lion?

The people in the room were flattering each other, sipping their small glasses of alcohol, and occasionally praising Cheng Shi’en, making the atmosphere lively and warm.

"I want to use the restroom. Do you want to come with me?"

The girl sitting next to Gu Minmin asked her in a low voice.

Minmin put down her chopsticks, glanced at Director Cheng.

His face was flushed from drinking, and whatever was said beside him made his eyes crinkle into smiles.

"Let’s go, together."

Gu Minmin put down her chopsticks, stood, and left with the girl.

Their departure didn’t draw much attention, except from a few well-dressed partners not far away.

When they arrived at the restroom, Gu Minmin nodded towards her, "You go ahead, I’ll wait here."

The girl bit her lip, "You’re not going?"

Minmin shook her head; she understood why the girl wanted her company. Although the partners’ gazes were somewhat hidden, they were still too blatant. It seemed the girl, who hadn’t yet left school, feared an incident might occur if she left alone.

Gu Minmin had a good impression of her; she was a clean girl.

Knowing she was still in school, it was fortunate she got into the "Women are Strong" shooting crew.

The girl thanked her and entered the restroom.

Minmin just stood outside, leaning against the wall, staring idly at the trash bin beside her.

The Saint No Hotel really lived up to its name as a high-end restaurant in Beijing.

The decor here is all Western British style, even the trash bin exudes artistry, with exquisite antlers on top and intricately detailed patterns on the body.
