From Nun to Real Heiress: Expert at Turning the Tables - Chapter 498

Chapter 498: 233 Lingering Disaster (First Watch)

Han Yue had just walked out of the room when she was stopped by a young man, “Beauty, drink with me.”

The young man seemed to be somewhat drunk, slurring his words and reaching out to touch Han Yue’s face.

Han Yue hurriedly backed away, noticing that although the young man was young, his features were very delicate, with a flirtatious and luxurious temperament, clearly not an ordinary person.

Han Yue thought, compared to the company of bald, pot-bellied old men, this charming young man was far better.

“Who…who are you? Asking someone to drink with you as soon as you come up, I’m not a lady to accompany drinks, what kind of person do you take me for?”

Bai Ziyan almost vomited.

That’s right, this young man who appeared drunk and slurred was none other than Bai Ziyan.

He looked at the woman in front of him, her face full of coquettish anger and extreme pretentiousness, and he almost threw up his last meal.

Ming Jing, the task you gave me is just too difficult to complete.

Whatever, succeed or die trying.

“I am your benefactor…” The young man said, gently stroking Han Yue’s face, causing her to blush and feel awkward.

Her dream had always been to become an actress. She had tried to audition for the Film Academy’s performance department, but her face was not up to standards, so she ended up accidentally enrolling in the directing department instead. Compared to the beautiful women in the performance department, she looked really ordinary, so Liang Xiaohong never had any intentions regarding her.

Now being “teased” by such a handsome and flirtatious young man, she couldn’t describe how happy she was.

This proved that she must be attractive, right?

Before she could be happy for a few seconds, the young man across from her shook his head, as if finally seeing her clearly, and his face suddenly darkened: “You’re really fucking ugly; get away from me.”

Han Yue’s face turned pale in an instant.

The word ‘ugly’ pierced the sore spot in her heart. She bit her lip, trying to use her vulnerability and tears to move the other person, but she forgot that this tactic only worked if she had a pure and beautiful appearance. With an ordinary face like hers, it was just annoying to others.

The young man’s frown could have killed a fly. “Damn it, can’t there be someone better looking? A bunch of ugly fruits, hurting my eyes…”

At this moment, the young man’s phone rang urgently. Annoyed, he answered, “Why the hell are you calling me so late? What? Actor? Where am I supposed to find an actor for you? Don’t bother me, go find Yu Dawei. He’s the big director, what he says goes. As for my father, I declare from now on that I’m severing my relationship with Yu Dawei. We won’t have anything to do with each other from now on, so don’t call me again, hmph…”

The young man hung up the phone in a huff.

Yu Dawei!

Han Yue looked at the young man in disbelief. He was actually Yu Dawei’s son?

The young man seemed to be drunk. People say that the truth comes out when you’re drunk, so his words must have been true. Besides, Yu Dawei was a famously handsome director in the entertainment industry, so his son definitely wouldn’t be unattractive.

As for who Yu Dawei was, as a director, his name was known to every household. He brought fame to countless film emperors and empresses, winning numerous awards, with a legendary status. Many actors would fight for a supporting role in his movies, and for a newcomer chosen by him to play a leading role, their career would soar overnight – a star falling from the sky.

Seven years ago, Yu Dawei started preparing for a new project, an epic war film with a huge IP, with an initial investment of 1 billion. Many male actors in the industry had their eyes on this movie, and the entertainment industry was in shambles with people using all sorts of tactics to discredit each other.

However, not long after, Yu Dawei was diagnosed with thyroid cancer and the project was suspended. He withdrew from the entertainment circle to seek treatment. The surgery was successful, and after a few years of rest, his health gradually improved. But in the rapidly changing entertainment industry, this IP has always been closely watched.

Recently, there were rumors that Yu Dawei was planning to make a comeback and continue the project, actively seeking funding. After all, the original investors had gone bankrupt or were in debt, so it was difficult for them to keep investing.

However, considering Yu Dawei’s influence, with just a wave, there would be countless investors competing to provide funding, so there was no need to worry about this aspect.

Moreover, it was rumored that Yu Dawei had a distinguished background, coming from a prominent family in Jingzhou. He had given up inheriting the family business to pursue a career in the entertainment industry, almost angering his parents to death. Although the truth was unknown, Yu Dawei’s net worth was indeed extraordinary.
