Chapter 772
Two dayster, in a hotel in Livingsfill, a skinny man with a pale face was leaning on a couch, covering
his mouth with a handkerchief as he coughed every once in a while.
Ding Fei quickly passed him a piece of tissue. “Are you okay? Let me get you a ss of water.”
With that, she filled a ss with warm water and brought it to Ruan Anxi.
However, Ruan Anxi took the ss only to pour its contents over Ding Fei''s head.
Ding Fei did not dare to move at all as she allowed the water to trickle down her cheeks and neck.
“You said you wanted to shoot a film, so I let you do that, but now, you''re telling me that the filming
won''t continue. What happens to the money I''ve invested into the film, then?” Ruan Anxi gloomily
asked.
His tone was even, and his voice was high-pitched. Even though he was not shouting, his words were
ear-piercing and brought difort to those who heard him.
“I''m sorry, Doctor. The actors suddenly decided to quit. I went to the director, but the director told me
that he was going to quit his role too. Even the technicians and the other members of the production
team quit.”
“Tell me why all of them suddenly quit their roles and were willing to pay thepensation! Tell me!”
Ruan Anxi questioned.
The film was not important to Ruan Anxi, of course, but this was his first moneyundering project in
Flower City. The project''s failure would cause him huge distress, and he was starting to doubt Ding
Fei''s capability inundering his money.
“I think Nan Chen pulled some strings and pressured the actors into quitting. As for the director, I''m
sure he decided to quit because those actors were leaving.”
Ruan Anxi then brushed his slender fingers across Ding Fei''s stiff face. “So you mean to tell me that
you''re not to me for all these—that these are all because of Nan Chen? Then, let me ask you a
question. Why is Nan Chen doing this? Is it because he found out about your motives? Or is it that he
has found out who you really are?”
Ding Fei quickly denied it. “That''s impossible. He definitely hasn''t found out who I am. No way. My
looks have changed. He''ll never recognize me.”
“Then why is he stopping your film production? Is there no reason behind his actions at all?” Ruan Anxi
asked.
Ding Fei fell silent at that.
“You''re hiding something from me. If you don''t tell me about it, tonight''s dinner shall be your organs.” At
that point, a scalpel appeared in Ruan Anxi''s hand.
Frightened out of her wits, Ding Fei went to her knees and pleaded, “Please don''t! Please!”
“Then tell me the truth!”
“It could be because... he knows about my arrangement...”
“What arrangements?” Ruan Anxi questioned.
“Ning Ran has been filming a movie too. I''m nning to screen our film before hers so that hers will
flop... Also, I''ve been using their script with only some of the details changed. As long as we screen
first, their movie is bound to fail.”
“Is this one of your ns for revenge?”
“Yes,” Ding Fei quietly answered.
“For the sake of making Ning Ran''s film flop, you''ve decided to sacrifice my profits?” Ruan Anxi
continued in an even colder tone.
“I''m sorry. I didn''t n to do this...”
“How did Nan Chen find out about your n if that''s the case? Which part of your n failed?”
“I''ve only talked to Ouyang Li about this before. I''m guessing that she''s the one who revealed it.”
“Make reparations right now. Find those actors and actresses who quit and beg them toe back to
finish the film. If this project bites the dust, I''ll be holding you ountable for it.”
“Of course, Doctor. I''ll work on it right away.”
At noon the next day, Ding Fei went to Ouyang Li''s Lily Club.
Ouyang Li was an investor, so it went without saying that she already knew what happened to the
production team.
Like Ding Fei, she never thought that Nan Chen would be able to make everyone quit in such a short
period of time.
After a few interactions, Ouyang Li realized she had severely underestimated Nanshi Corporation''s
influential power.
“I have a question for you. Were you the one who revealed my n to someone else? Is that why Nan
Chen suddenly took action and made the production team quit?” Ding Fei grilled as she jabbed a finger
at Ouyang Li''s nose.
That rude gesture from Ding Fei was what Ouyang Li hated most.
There were quite a few times when Ouyang Li was tempted to break Ding Fei''s finger in response, but
s, she still needed Ding Fei''s help, so she could only suppress her fury in silence.
“No. We''re allies. The Nan family killed my father. Why would I reveal your secret to him?” Ouyang Li
replied.
“Then why did Nan Chen suddenly target the film production?”
“I really have no idea. Maybe your few attempts to kill Ning Ran rmed him. You better think of a way
to get those production team members back. This film can''t go to waste like this!”
Since Ruan Anxi was putting pressure on her, Ding Fei could only choose to shift the pressure onto
Ouyang Li.
“Me?”

“You don''t need to do this in person—you can get your subordinates to do it, but I expect you to
aplish this task.”
Naturally, Ouyang Li was indignant. She thought such a menial task shouldn''t be her responsibility.
After Ouyang Qing had used her, Ouyang Li quickly requested sick leave before the board of
directors fired her. At the same time, she asked Ouyang Qi to take over her role in managing the
company.
Nan Chen''s assistant, Jiang Zhe, had told her that the Nan family would help her prove that she had
nothing to do with Ouyang Qing''s case as long as she cooperated with the Nan family.
However, the police were already on the case, and it would take some time. They were not going to
announce that Ouyang Li had nothing to do with Ouyang Qing''s case in such a short time.
Now that Ouyang Li was in distress over her own troubles, how could she possibly be in the mood to
persuade those production team members to return to their roles?
“I''m not familiar with the entertainment circle. I highly doubt they''ll agree toe back if I''m the one
who approaches them. I''m afraid we''ll have to think of a different way to solve this,” Ouyang Li told her.
“I don''t care what ways you use as long as you''re the one to do this.”
“I don''t think I can resolve this. Why don''t we put pressure on the director and make him persuade the
actors toe back instead?” Ouyang Li suggested.
“Then you go and look for the director. Didn''t I just say that I don''t care what you do as long as the film
production continues?” Ding Fei gritted out,ying all the responsibility on Ouyang Li''s shoulders.
“All right. I guess I''ll have to give it a go,” Ouyang Li answered in resignation.
At present, there was nothing she could do other than ept the task first. Moreover, while she was
speaking to Ding Fei, a name crossed her mind—Tang Jing.
Ouyang Li was unfamiliar with the entertainment industry, but Tang Jing was in that industry. Maybe
Tang Jing will be able to get this done if I leave this to her.
In the meantime, Tang Jing was in Flower City, drinking champagne.
She was reading the news she saw on the inte over and over again: The Ever-Changing
Management of Sunshine Corporation. Ouyang Qi Temporarily Takes Over as the CEO While Ouyang
Li Is on Sick Leave.
Her n had actually made Ouyang Qi the CEO. Even though his title was temporary, they were now
much closer to obtaining true power in thepany.
Tang Jing was certain that she would be getting the sweet taste of victory soon.
Right then, her phone rang. It was a call from Ouyang Li, asking to meet her at Lily Club.
Tang Jing disliked having the club named Lily Club. If she were to take over the club, she would change
it to Jillion Club, for that sounded far more powerful and elegant.
