Chapter 428: 420: If She Wants, This Place Can Be Her Home Right Now

Putting everything else aside, Money’s word-squeezing ability is full-on.
Chen Xixi almost felt like applauding Jin Cheng.
She watched Jin Cheng’s serious expression and couldn’t help but speak up: “Aren’t you afraid of getting beaten up by your Uncle?”
It seemed that Zhou Jinyuan must usually spoil Jin Cheng a lot; otherwise, Jin Cheng would never dare to talk about eloping with Little Aunt.
Jin Cheng felt guilty for a second, but then he remembered his Uncle wasn’t around, so what was there to fear!
Jin Cheng snorted lightly, with a fearless look, he said: “Once we’ve run away, he can’t hit me! Besides, if he treats you badly, what’s wrong with me taking you away? Even if there is a problem, it’s his problem! It’s his fault for not standing up for you!”
Just as Chen Xixi was about to say something, the chief director walked over.
The chief director looked at Jin Cheng and said: “You go back to the show filming first.”
Jin Cheng glanced at Chen Xixi and asked the director, “What about her?”
The chief director, with a dark face, said: “I have something to discuss with her now.”
Chen Xixi had made such a big mess on the show, so it was normal for the chief director to want to talk to her.
Jin Cheng looked at the defiant Chen Xixi and then turned his gaze to the chief director, whose face didn’t look too good…
“Let’s just talk here!” Jin Cheng, with his hands in his pockets, leaned lazily against the wall, obviously not planning to leave.
He felt that if he left, the chief director would definitely give Chen Xixi a hard time.
After all, the stance of the two now already seemed rather tense.
The chief director, impatiently, clicked his tongue lightly: “This is none of your business, get back quickly, don’t interfere with the normal filming of the show!”
Jin Cheng: “Does missing out on just this little while matter?”
The chief director hated those who didn’t follow instructions the most, his face turning colder and meaner as he threatened, “During the filming of the show, you must appear on set according to the contract, and you cannot affect the normal recording of the program, or else you’ll have to pay a penalty for breach of contract!”
Hearing about having to pay a penalty, Jin Cheng’s facial expression suddenly became anxious.
I forgot to mention that he is currently a poor man with empty pockets.
Because his performance on the money-saving variety show didn’t satisfy his mother, his bank cards are still frozen to this day.
As for the money he earned from dishwashing abroad… it was confiscated by his mother as soon as he got home.
She said she was worried he would squander it all.
In short, his mother is now very controlling of his financial situation, worried he might revert to his extravagant spending ways, otherwise, he wouldn’t have just suggested to Chen Xixi to take Uncle’s money and run away.
If he has to pay a penalty now, he really can’t afford it.
Dishwashing is tiring enough; if he had to dishwash under a mountain of debt, the light in his life would be completely extinguished.
Pressured by the possibility of a penalty, Jin Cheng hesitated for a moment before reluctantly returning to the filming set.
Before leaving, he looked coldly at the chief director and said seriously: “I’m warning you, don’t make things hard for her, otherwise, don’t expect your show to continue filming!”
The chief director watched Jin Cheng leave and scoffed disdainfully.
What an irrelevant being, daring to threaten him?
If Jin Cheng were the real young master, he would never come to their show as a guest for a mere one million.
The so-called “young master” is nothing more than a marketing tactic in front of the camera.
He’s seen his share of such frauds among the wealthy, masquerading as rich.
Many even manage to ingratiate themselves into real elite circles, calling genuine tycoons brothers.
But such tricks won’t work on him!
The executive producer withdrew his gaze and looked at Chen Xixi, questioning, “What’s the deal between you and Tao Bin?”
Chen Xixi replied directly, “He tried to sexually harass me.”
The executive producer laughed and gave Chen Xixi a meaningful look, his words carrying a threatening tone, “You can’t just say things like that. Do you have any evidence? Falsely accusing someone is illegal, you know.”
Chen Xixi had thought the executive producer would deal with the situation fairly, which is why she told him directly. But she didn’t expect that the executive producer would be in cahoots with Tao Bin.
Following that, the executive producer stopped laughing and said coldly, “Do you realize the impact this incident has had on the show today? This isn’t your home, where you can say whatever you want and splash water whenever you feel like it! This time, considering Wu Jingjing is not pursuing it, I’ll let it slide. But if there’s a next time, don’t blame me for not being nice!”
After scolding her, the executive producer sneered and continued, “You’re just lucky you met Wu Jingjing who has a good temperament. If it had been someone tough, you’d be finished in this industry! Treat Wu Jingjing better from now on, got it?”
Chen Xixi caught on—the executive producer’s biased words were in favor of Wu Jingjing.
Chen Xixi just shrugged her shoulders, her face indifferent, and said lightly, “She’s the lucky one. If no one had stopped me today, I would have made sure she left crying.”
The executive producer’s face turned livid with anger at Chen Xixi’s words, “I’m telling you! Don’t think just because you have some fame now, I wouldn’t dare do something to you. If you cause me any more trouble or bother Wu Jingjing, I can replace you at any time!”
Chen Xixi said nonchalantly, “Then replace me now.”
It just so happens she hasn’t started any work and would receive a penalty fee—a kind of profit in its own way.
“You!!”
The executive producer, pointing at Chen Xixi’s nose, was so angry he couldn’t speak.
If it weren’t for the sudden surge in the show’s popularity just now, with most of the viewers tuning in for Chen Xixi, he really would have replaced her on the spot!
Considering the show’s popularity, the executive producer took a deep breath and finally said through gritted teeth, “The show has already started, finding another guest now would be too troublesome. I’ll tolerate you this time!”
Chen Xixi straightened her suit sleeves and said slowly, “Then don’t bother with those meaningless threats. If you want my full cooperation, then you should keep Wu Jingjing’s mouth in check, lest I get the urge to slap her.”
“I don’t care what you think, but from now on, you’d better keep it together! Don’t cause trouble for yourself!” the executive producer said scornfully to Chen Xixi, adding, “Slap her? If she weren’t looking to make it in showbiz, you wouldn’t even qualify to sit in the same room as her!”
Chen Xixi glanced at the executive producer and snorted, “You make it sound as if a real princess has descended. If she’s so precious, let her stay in her own nest and not come out causing trouble everywhere.”
The executive producer was once again furious at Chen Xixi’s words!
Wu Jingjing is Tianyu’s little princess—everyone in the crew would be thrilled to curry favor with her, who would dare to offend her!
And yet Chen Xixi dared to say Tianyu’s little princess was causing trouble?
She must be tired of living!
The executive producer gritted his teeth and said angrily, “What did I just tell you! This isn’t your home, watch your mouth! You can’t just say whatever you want!
And about Tao Bin, medical expenses will be deducted from your pay! As for other compensation, it depends on how Tao Bin wants to settle it. You two can handle that privately!”
Right after the executive producer finished speaking, a low voice suddenly resounded, “As long as she wants, this place can be her home right now.”
