CHAPTER 666: CHAPTER 640: AO CHEN VS HUO QI 6
Yuran suddenly didn’t know whether to sympathize with Ao Chen’s foolishness or to praise Huo Qi’s cleverness.
The two chatted for a while before they changed the subject.
With a casual look, Huo Qi, holding a glass of red wine, regarded Yuran, "I heard that the nearby studio is shooting Miss Catherine’s new film;
It’s said to be an adventurous movie, and the director is keen on inviting Bo Yan to join. Whose idea do you think this is?"
Huo Qi was also surprised. As a member of the Hawes Family, was Catherine that eager to snatch Bo Yan away?
The point is, after trying for so long, Bo Yan remained unmoved. What is she persisting for?
What’s the point?
Yuran looked at Huo Qi with a bit of surprise, "You’re amazing too, knowing such things."
Huo Qi shrugged, a look of reluctant knowledge on his face as he gazed at her, "Actually, I didn’t want to know, but information is everywhere around me, some which I shouldn’t and some I should know."
Yuran, "Are you here to show off your circle of friends now? Speaking of which, I’m quite surprised that Catherine is so persistent with my seventh brother."
"Isn’t it natural for a remarkable person to be remembered?"
"Probably, did Catherine intentionally choose this location?"
"That’s uncertain." Huo Qi felt it was deliberate, "Catherine, you know, has a so-so reputation in the circle, but her acting is genuinely good. With a big backing, her family background makes others wary of criticizing her too much."
Yuran said enviously, "That’s really nice. I’d like to have that kind of support too."
Huo Qi in disbelief, "Isn’t the big tree behind you big enough?"
Isn’t Bo Yan ten times bigger than Catherine?
Although not clear about Bo Yan’s private assets, from his day-to-day life, he seemed not to lack money or resources; otherwise, why ignore the branches others frequently offer?
Yuran was just making an offhand comment and didn’t take it seriously, "My marriage is my own, and I don’t allow invaders to intrude. If I really have to make a comparison, of course, I wouldn’t mind a bit of contrast, Catherine, I’m not inferior."
"You have more confidence than she does."
At least the fact that Bo Yan liked Yuran was undeniable, winning from the starting line.
Although Catherine’s presence wasn’t much of a trouble for Yuran, it did cause her some discomfort, a type of vexation under her control.
Despite knowing that this person was annoying everywhere, she couldn’t avoid her.
According to Huo Qi, the filming at this location would last about two more months because the following episodes would extensively utilize special effects. To avoid reshooting unfit scenes, they must work harder now and strive to do their best.
Regarding her career challenges, Yuran had no intention of dodging but had no particular thoughts either. Whatever she needed to do well, she would not hesitate but earnestly strive to excel.
...
The next day, just as the "AI: Interstellar" crew finished shooting, they encountered Catherine’s crew as they came out, and the actors who had come along with Yuran from their homeland felt that Catherine was somewhat ominously persistent.
Logically speaking, Yuran and Bo Yan were in a great relationship, and they spoke without any reservations. How big must Catherine’s face be to behave so brazenly tenacious?
"Yuran, Bo Yan, what a coincidence." Catherine came over to greet them first.
Yuran quite admired her, managing to act as if nothing had happened, approaching naturally to greet and then smiling like a longtime close friend.
Yuran curiously, "Miss Catherine, how can you smile so brilliantly at me? Doesn’t it hurt inside?"
Catherine’s expression stiffened, then she regained composure, "Yuran, I know you have a bias against me, but what I wanted to say is, let’s not dwell on past issues, I won’t do anything excessive in the future."
Yuran didn’t believe a word from Catherine, her expression calm, "I don’t know what you truly think, but I believe we definitely aren’t on the same path."
Catherine raised an eyebrow, "Naturally, I know you and Yan are married, I won’t do anything."
Bo Yan raised an eyebrow, a smile not reaching his eyes, "Miss Catherine, my English name is not ’Yan.’ Perhaps you should find another way to address me. Such intimacy isn’t typical among friends, and frankly, it makes me uncomfortable."
The onlookers relished the drama.
Catherine, well-known in the circle and backed by a powerful family, spoke disrespectfully to everyone, making most feel that Catherine would be better suited as a wealthy young lady at home. Working here seemed like a downgrade for her.
