Chinese Entertainment Intelligence King

Chapter 281 The Teddy Sisters, the Bad Women's Alliance

If Huo Siyan's personality is similar to Wang Ou's, then her temperament and figure are more like Yang Rong's.

The little white flower also carries a touch of allure, possessing both innocence and desire, which somewhat overlaps with the acting style of Yang Rong, who has a baby face.

So much so that the two had previously competed for the role in "The Difficult Love of a Diamond Bachelor". In fact, when Huo Siyan was cast in "The Last Princess", screenwriter Yu Zheng originally envisioned Yang Rong, his old classmate, as the actress.

In terms of physique, both are petite, yet possess imposing stature.

Yan Li, who has personally experienced this more than once, has the absolute right to speak on this matter.

Yang Rong has a better figure and proportions, and the large doll feels great to hold.

Huo Siyan is somewhat lacking in this aspect; when she is thin, her head appears large and her body small, and when she is a little chubby, she looks slightly bloated. However, she does have an advantage: her skin is fair, which makes her visually appealing.

As for their facial features, the two have different styles. Yan Li personally thinks Yang Rong is prettier and prefers her. This includes personal aesthetic preferences, as well as the influence of their personalities and experiences.

At least Yan Li never intended to have a long-term relationship with Huo Siyan.

If the latter falls in love, things will immediately return to normal between them.

However, for various reasons, this person has shown no signs of dating.

Yan Li considered his personality, combined with some intelligence, and the psychology of the women around him, and made a reasonable deduction.

Huo Siyan wanted to curry favor with him, hoping to gain both a powerful backer and some resources and benefits.

Qin Lan could also do these things, but the effect would be far less than having a direct connection with Yan Li.

Among the Teddy Sisters, she received the most resources, which clearly wasn't solely due to Qin Lan's support.

Another thing is that this woman is vain. She has a relationship with Yan Li, and even if it can't be openly acknowledged, she feels secretly pleased, which is also mixed with some special psychological factors.

Furthermore, Mr. Yan's charm and abilities make him an absolutely high-quality man.

Having tasted delicacies from land and sea, ordinary home-cooked dishes are hard to look at. Ordinary people can't stand the difference, let alone someone like Huo Siyan with her personality of praising the high and belittling the low.

In addition, Huo Siyan is not that old now, so she might as well just play around like this for now and see when it ends.

If you can't keep up anymore, or you've been kicked out, someone else will always be willing to take over...

Leaning back on the bed, Yan Li lit a cigarette and watched Huo Siyan cleaning with a sense of contentment.

Although his skills are mediocre, he's uninhibited, willing to go all out, and does whatever he's asked, which makes him quite unique.

What's Huayi Brothers been up to lately?

Yan Li is busy right now, and the amount of intelligence he receives each day can't keep up. Unless Yan Li takes the initiative to trigger something or Huayi is targeting him, it's really better to ask the Li sisters and Huo Siyan for some trivial information.

Huo Siyan looked up and licked her lips: "Well, nothing much has happened. There were rumors not long ago that Liu Yifei was going to sign with a company, but recently there has been no word on it."

At the time, Huayi Brothers internally said that with Liu Yifei joining the company, they might form a separate group of artists to compete with Li and Zhou for the top spot.

Even when Li Bingbing's contract renewal was disrupted, there were rumors that she was going to go to Orange Sky Entertainment, and some said it was because she was unhappy with "The Forbidden Kingdom".

Huo Siyan was even considering whether to get closer to Qi, thinking it would be amazing if she could get Qi into the Teddy Sisters group.

As a result, Li Bingbing has successfully renewed her contract, and the rumors about Liu Yifei and Huayi Brothers have stopped.

"I suspect it might be those two sisters surnamed Li who are causing trouble?"

Huo Siyan, judging others by her own standards and fueled by old grudges, turned her anger towards the Li sisters.

Yan Li shook his head. In Huo Siyan's opinion, the Li sisters were very powerful and could easily bully Liu Tianxian, who was a powerful figure in Huayi Brothers.

But Yan Li knew that if these two sisters really had such great abilities, they wouldn't have suffered such a setback in "The Forbidden Kingdom".

Artists are always at a disadvantage when dealing with companies, especially large ones.

If you're famous and make enough money, you might be able to gain some freedom and power through certain actions, and even negotiate with the company to force them to make concessions in certain areas.

However, this does not mean that artists can interfere with the company's overall strategy or important plans.

Even if Liu Tianxian isn't as famous as Li Bingbing, she's still incredibly popular, and more importantly, she's young and has great potential.

If the Wang brothers give up signing with Liu Yifei because of Li Bingbing and her sister's dissatisfaction, especially after promising her an important resource, then the brothers should just quit the entertainment industry and pack their bags to retire as soon as possible.

"There's something fishy going on here."

With too little information, Yan Li couldn't determine what had happened. But since it wasn't good for Huayi Brothers, he was happy.

Yan Li even considered whether he should snatch Liu Tianxian away to Yi'an.

But he quickly dismissed the idea.

Not to mention that Liu Yifei's fame and status could create some resource conflict with Fan Bingbing, the key point is that her background and some complicated rules and etiquette have also been heard of.

You can't say it's wrong. They have the means and are willing to do it this way, so no one can stop them. Yan Li himself has done similar things.

However, this will inevitably bring certain impacts and troubles to the company's management and training.

Yan Li wants artists who can fight, work hard, and make money, not half an ancestor.

"Oh, right."

Huo Siyan then remembered something else: "Isn't 'Soldiers Sortie' a hit now? Wang Baoqiang is the lead actor, and Li Chen and that guy who played Cheng Cai, Chen something, have all signed with Huayi Brothers."

Yan Li nodded slightly, showing no surprise.

"Soldiers Sortie" was broadcast at the end of last year, but the initial broadcast results were not good. It only started to gain momentum after being rebroadcast by multiple local TV stations and gaining positive word-of-mouth on the Internet.

As of now, its momentum is growing, and it's starting to look like a blockbuster.

It's rumored that it might be broadcast on a major television network during the summer. If it becomes popular on a major network, the show's influence will be even greater.

Yan Li had watched this drama. Although it was just a cursory glance, he understood that this kind of ensemble drama was very good at promoting people. At least the actors all had some highlights and could benefit from it to some extent.

Especially the male lead, Wang Baoqiang.

This name appeared in Yan Li's intelligence a long time ago, and Yan Li couldn't find it back then, but now it's heading towards becoming a big star.

It's a pity he's from Huayi Brothers. Yan Li is quick-witted and has a unique style. After "Soldiers Sortie," he accumulated a lot of goodwill among the general public, so it would be very suitable to create some projects around him.

Well, it's not that it can't be used.

Yan Li can promote Li Bingbing and Huo Siyan, so having Wang Baoqiang as well won't make a difference.

Even if Huayi Brothers gains a little, their own projects can earn more.

In business and in social circles, things aren't always clearly defined, black and white. You can mess with Huayi Brothers, but don't mess with money.

Besides, I'm not familiar with that Chen guy, but I am familiar with Li Chen...

Yan Li patted Huo Siyan's head: "Now that Li Chen is famous, will Li Xiaolu get back together with him?"

He had occasionally heard Qin Lan mention that after Li Xiaolu and Li Chen broke up, although they weren't exactly estranged, they weren't completely cut off from each other either.

Li Chen couldn't stand up to Li Xiaolu before because of his career, but now that "Soldiers Sortie" has taken him to a higher level, he might have a chance.

"You forgot, Xiaolu also has 'Struggle'."

Huo Siyan gave a hesitant hum, and Yan Li suddenly realized that he had almost forgotten about this.

It's really hard to say whether "Soldiers Sortie" or "Struggle" is more popular.

Li Chen was just a supporting character in the drama; there were several other characters who were more prominent and had more screen time than him.

Li Xiaolu is a genuine second or third female lead, and her character is relatively distinct. Her romantic storyline with Wen Zhang is also more likable, at least compared to the melodramatic love triangle of the male lead, Tong Dawei.

Among the main actors in "Struggle", Tong Dawei received the most benefits.

It's hard to say who had the biggest advantage among the other actors, but Li Hewen should be ranked among the top.

Li Xiaolu, who was already a popular young actress, is now even more outstanding, considered a top-tier actress even among second-tier stars. Li Chen is really no match for her.

"It's not easy when the woman is stronger than the man."

Yan Li sighed, then instructed Huo Siyan to keep a close eye on Li Xiaolu.

That young vixen is wild and daring, and after the breakup, she's become even more unrestrained. It doesn't matter what she does, as long as she doesn't corrupt Qin Lan.

Huo Siyan felt a little guilty upon hearing this, as she hadn't yet done the things that Li Xiaolu had coaxed and threatened her to do.

The two of them were quite busy with work recently, and they were also thinking about "Painted Skin," so they temporarily put it off.

But Li Xiaolu never forgot about it and had urged her twice before.

Huo Siyan wanted to ignore it, but she was also afraid that the crazy girl might not realize the seriousness of the situation and actually sell her out.

However, if her wish is granted, it's fine for her, but what will Yan Li think?

Huo Siyan was initially confident. Why would she turn down a popular actress who was offered to her, especially since Yan Li always had a good appetite?

But after several attempts to meet and probe her, she hadn't seen any results and was starting to have doubts.

Yan Li has a good appetite, but she doesn't lack food. She herself is in dire straits, so who knows what Yan Li is thinking? What if she thinks she sold him out? That would be the end of her.

Caught in a dilemma, Huo Siyan went to the bathroom to brush her teeth and soaked in the bathtub before slowly sketching out some ideas.

wrong!

She was wrong!
This is something that can be done, but she's plotting against the wrong person.

Scheming against Yan Li with Li Xiaolu would yield little benefit and be extremely risky; if Yan Li discovered the scheme and misunderstood it, they would be finished.

But if we look at it from a different angle, and it becomes that she conspired with Yan Li to offer her best friend, a popular young actress, to Yan Li, then the nature of the situation is completely different.

She went from scheming against Yan Li with others to scheming against others with Yan Li, instantly changing her stance.

If Yan Li is unwilling, she can give Li Xiaolu an explanation. If Li Xiaolu really wants to fight to the death, she can also have Yan Li step in.

After all, Yan Li certainly didn't want Qin Lan to know about this.

Li Xiaolu dared to go crazy with her, but she would never dare to go crazy with Yan Li. Her family had some connections and resources, but it depended on their scale. Even if she didn't kill them, she would still be badly hurt.

Conversely, if Yan Li is willing, she will not only fulfill her agreement with Li Xiaolu and gain an ally, but also earn a favor from Yan Li.

No matter how good Qin Lan is, she wouldn't introduce Yan Li to a friend... ugh, let's just say she's a good friend.

Huo Siyan knew that she didn't have a good impression of Yan Li, and it would be difficult to change it even if she wanted to. Since that was the case, she might as well go all out.

If I can't be a virtuous wife and loving mother, then I'll be a wicked woman who aids and abets evil.

Where there is a positive, there is also a negative!
There are many things she can't do as well as Qin Lan, but there are also many things Qin Lan can't do, otherwise Yan Li wouldn't have come to her today.

Bad women are more exciting; even if they can't climb the social ladder, they can still reap some benefits.

Huo Siyan also thought of Wang Ou.

This slutty chicken spirit is just a self-taught model who was promoted step by step by Yan Li to where she is today.

In terms of friendship and seniority, she is no match for Chairman Qin; in terms of beauty and ability, she is far superior to Fan Xiaopang.

Is it just because he was with Yan Li earlier?

But it wasn't too late when you filmed "Happy Seven Fairies" yourself!

Huo Siyan had long suspected that the slut had gathered several people and had all been rumored to have affairs with Yan Li, so she was probably doing something like "betraying her friends for personal gain".

Especially Yang Rong, who actually beat her to get the lead role in a TV series, it doesn't seem right at all.

If that little slut Wang Ou can do it, why can't she?!

Of course, we need to be careful because of Qin Lan and can't do anything too big, but there is still some room for maneuver.

Huo Siyan used to worry about being caught red-handed by Qin Lan, so she was always very careful. But this time, perhaps spurred on by Li Xiaolu, she suddenly understood.

No matter what, once Qin Lan catches her, she's finished. She's going to die anyway, so she might as well go big. If she goes big, maybe she'll have a chance to survive.

Huo Siyan's eyes lit up as she thought about it. Before she had even dried herself off, she moved closer to Yan Li and her first words were earth-shattering.

"Mr. Yan, let me find you another woman."

Yan Li: "???"

Did this woman wash her brain out of shape while taking a shower?!

Since the so-called Teddy Sisters group was formed, Yan Li has only taken the initiative to contact Huo Siyan once. Under normal circumstances, they would be too busy trying to keep him, let alone push him away.

Yan Li looked at her hesitantly: "Are you in a relationship?"

Strictly speaking, Huo Siyan and he weren't even lovers. They communicated regularly, and Yan Li gave her plenty of benefits. He didn't set any rules for her.

I only mentioned that I should let him know in advance if I started dating him, so we could part amicably and avoid any awkward situations.

Although there were many benefits to her relationship with Yan Li, they had no official status or relationship, and he would come and go at any time. Moreover, Huo Siyan was the kind of person who would be unresponsive to her advances.

If Yan Li meets a nice guy and wants to cut ties with the past and start a relationship, he can understand.

Yan Li took out his phone, pondering how much money to settle the matter.

Although the two didn't break up, and there was no question of compensation, they had at least communicated. Huo Siyan was usually quite obedient to him, and Qin Lan and Huayi would need her in the future.

Two million in cash should be enough, considering they've already provided a lot of resources. If that's not enough, we can arrange a few more advertising opportunities.

"no no."

Seeing Yan Li's expression, Huo Siyan didn't understand what he was thinking, but she knew he must have misunderstood, so she quickly explained.

"..."

The doubt on Yan Li's face did not disappear; on the contrary, it increased.

No way, these women are really something, pulling one after another, are they trying to run a pyramid scheme for him?!

I've never seen these plastic sisters be particularly united and loving before, how did he turn them into a pyramid scheme-style harem?

In these people's eyes, has he gone ashore or gone into business?

Yan Li was stunned, while Huo Siyan was still babbling on and on.

At first, I felt a little embarrassed and awkward, but I gradually overcame the initial awkwardness and became more and more comfortable talking.

Of course, Huo Siyan couldn't reveal her psychological changes and the reasons behind them; her explanation was packaged and embellished.

One of the important reasons is that she couldn't handle Yan Li on her own, so she was willing to sacrifice and dedicate herself to him, blah blah blah.

Yan Li gradually figured it out, after all, he had already experienced it once, while Wang Ou had gone all out much earlier than her.

No wonder he said that he and Wang Ou have similar personalities, and even their ideas can overlap.

Well, it could also be something we learned from.

Wang Ou's actions couldn't be kept secret from others. Dong Xuan, Qin Lan, and others all noticed to some extent, which made Wang Ou, who was already disliked, even more hated by everyone.

However, Wang Ou didn't particularly care; she only cared about Yan Li's opinion.

To put it bluntly, even when she wasn't doing this, Dong, Qin, and Fan didn't think much of her and bullied her in various ways.

On the contrary, now that she has gathered a few people, she has gained some influence and status, and is no longer as humble as before. Even Yan Li has given her some protection, both openly and secretly. Huo Siyan doesn't have high moral standards, and besides her Teddy Sisters group, she doesn't have many friends. It's understandable that she would take a risky gamble.

However, Huo Siyan's judgment was not as good as Wang Ou's.

Wu Jiani, Yang Rong, and Bai Bing each have their own charm; even if they are not stunning beauties, they can still be considered lovely ladies.

Li Xiaolu... is actually an option, but aside from the halo of a popular young actress, Yu Yanli lacks appeal and there are other risks involved.

Sensing that Yan Li wasn't very interested, Huo Siyan began to speak well of Li Xiaolu.

"That girl is crazy, she's even bolder than me, and she's petite..."

Yan Li raised his eyebrows slightly but remained silent. Huo Siyan gritted her teeth, whispered a few words in Yan Li's ear, and only then did the latter finally show a slight smile.

"That's what you said."

Huo Siyan realized that Yan Li had been deliberately playing hard to get.

No matter what, Li Xiaolu is still a popular young actress. Besides being one of the top actresses in China, she is also considered one of the best among young actresses. She is good-looking and has unique advantages.

If he were out there, plenty of people would be vying for his attention, including directors, young actors, and rich kids.

Yan Li wasn't dating her; she was just offering herself up. Why not take advantage of it?

"You are so mean."

Huo Siyan couldn't help but roll her eyes at him. Yan Li remained noncommittal, pulled her close, and skillfully shifted her into a more comfortable position.

"sleep."

...

The next day, when Huo Siyan got up, Yan Li was already gone. She only found out from the text message that the latter had a morning meeting.

Feeling a little hungry, Huo Siyan put on a coat and came out, only to see a breakfast on the dining table.

She couldn't find a microwave and was too lazy to cook. Anyway, it was summer, so she figured she'd just grab a quick bite and deal with it later.

Huo Siyan had never been to this house.

I didn't have time last night, but I took a look around today. The decoration isn't luxurious, it's rather simple, but it has all the basic amenities. The area is quite large, at least close to 200 square meters.

Finding no unusual traces, Huo Siyan packed her things, grabbed her bag, and left.

Huo Siyan, who was suddenly feeling a bit tired, planned to take a break today and take the opportunity to finalize her plans. However, in the afternoon, she suddenly received a phone call.

Yan Li's personal assistant ordered a BMW 5 Series for her at a 4S dealership.

Huo Siyan was overjoyed; this car wasn't cheap, costing several hundred thousand yuan.

Although her career has developed well in the past two years, she doesn't actually have a lot of money.

As I said before, artists don't earn that much these days. They have to pay various expenses to the company, and then give some money to their families. So what they actually have in hand is limited.

She herself is a bit extravagant and likes to organize parties and fun activities. As the third sister, she is also very vain and tends to pay the bill more often. Moreover, when the sisters get together, there is bound to be some competition, and new clothes and bags are indispensable.

More importantly, she followed Qin Lan's advice and invested in the real estate market.

This means that the cash she has is only enough for food, drink, and entertainment. She's been talking about getting a new car for a long time, but she's still driving her secondhand Chevrolet.

After arriving at the 4S store and choosing the color of Huo Siyan, she quickly called Yan Li to express her gratitude.

"As long as you like it."

Yan Li's voice was steady, while Huo Siyan's emotions surged: "How did you know I wanted to buy a car, and even a BMW 5 Series?"

Because the intelligence system showed that you wanted this car, and you happened to catch a big promotion at this 4S store, the price was so good that you would feel like you were losing out if you didn't spend the money.

I decided to buy it for her as a reward and a treat.

"Weren't you nagging your sister Lan about buying a car? She mentioned it to me once, and I remembered it."

Huo Siyan smiled brightly. She had mentioned buying a car to Qin Lan, but she forgot whether she had mentioned what kind of car. Even though she had forgotten, Yan Li remembered.

It seems that although President Yan is sometimes a bit aloof, he still cares about her.

Of course, after yesterday's performance, Huo Siyan knew exactly what was going on and felt that she had made the right choice.

"Don't worry, Mr. Yan, I guarantee I will complete the task."

Yan Li gave a few perfunctory replies and hung up the phone. Huo Siyan had been busy at the 4S shop for half a day and was finally able to drive the car away. Holding the brand-new steering wheel, she was in a great mood and even started to calculate her expenses.

Li Xiaolu alone bought a BMW; if she dragged the entire Teddy Sisters group down with her, wouldn't they be able to afford a villa?!

But Huo Siyan quickly dismissed this tempting idea.

The idea is good, but it's almost impossible.

For example, Liu Yun, although she doesn't like the other party, does have a good relationship with Qin Lan and doesn't have much selfishness. At least she doesn't have any feelings for Yan Li.

Then there's Ma Yili, who's deeply in love with her younger boyfriend and won't take any risks, and Yan Li doesn't touch women who are already in relationships.

As for the others, such as Xiong Naijin and Zhao Ke, they are possible, but they have too few options, and Yan Li might not be interested in them.

Not to mention, Qin Lan is also among them.

Li Xiaolu, who is playful, can be kept in the dark to some extent, but if too many people are involved, Qin Lan is not stupid. Once she finds out that Li Xiaolu is the instigator, she will definitely kill her.

The BMW 5 Series slowly drove into an upscale residential area. Huo Siyan deliberately didn't stop and made a phone call to call someone.

A short while later, Li Xiaolu came out carrying a bag, looking at Huo Siyan's new BMW with some surprise.

"Sure, you've changed cars."

Huo Siyan had been waiting for these words. A smile played on her lips as she patted the roof of the car: "Get in, I'll treat you to dinner."

Li Xiaolu comes from a wealthy family and doesn't think much of a BMW 5 Series. He opens the door, gets into the car, and crosses his legs.

"You used to avoid me when I tried to contact you, but this time you came to my door on your own initiative. Is there some good news?"

Huo Siyan fastened her seatbelt: "No rush, let's eat and chat slowly."

...

That evening, Yan Li, who had just gotten off work, looked at the text messages on his phone, and his lips twitched slightly.

I don't know if it's the person who's good or the car that's effective, but the efficiency is damn high.

Come to think of it, the two were in cahoots from the start, and Li was even more proactive than Huo, so it would be strange if the efficiency wasn't high.

That's right, after one night, Yan Li already knew exactly what had happened.

After all, Huo Siyan had already brought the matter to his attention, so it would be impolite for the system not to trigger relevant information.

Yan Li neither disliked nor liked the two's behind-the-scenes actions.

Once you understand what's going on, you'll naturally find a way to deal with them.

Yan Li originally wanted to stretch things out a bit, but then he thought, it was just a fleeting affair anyway, why bother stretching it out?

Last night, Huo Siyan wasn't up to the task on her own, and she still had some pent-up desire, so she just let it all out.

After sending a text message to Huo Siyan, Yan Li took a car to the Palm Springs Apartments.

This is his "hotel"; yesterday was an unexpected situation. Today, he'll do the right thing in the right place.

Yan Li arrived at the destination and had just taken a shower when Huo Siyan and her companion arrived.

Looking at Yan Li, who was casually wearing only shorts, Huo Siyan remained relatively calm, while Li Xiaolu, though slightly nervous, had her eyes shining.

You have a great figure!
Yan Li has a good physique; anyone who has seen him knows that, given his build. Especially in summer when he wears less clothing, you can even see some muscle definition.

But seeing it through clothes is never as direct as seeing it in person; that strong yet lean, angular body was so alluring it made one dizzy.

No wonder she always smiled so infatuatedly when she asked Huo Siyan about some details.

Huo Siyan had been observing Li Xiaolu. Upon seeing his appearance, she chuckled and moved closer.

"I didn't lie, did I?"

"No no."

Li Xiaolu glanced at Yan Li again, her mouth dry, and urged Huo Siyan, "You go first, we'll talk later."

"What are you in a hurry for?"

Huo Siyan rolled her eyes at her: "Even if you've used someone, you shouldn't treat them like this. Besides, I have to mediate for you."

"What's the point of mediating?"

Li Xiaolu was straightforward: "Once you leave, it'll be just the two of us, a man and a woman alone, so we can just do whatever we want."

The two were speaking in hushed tones, but Yan Li, who was not far away, could hear some of it.

Huo Siyan is right, it really is crazy!

But this is good too, everyone doesn't have to put in much effort, just get straight to the point, making it easy and enjoyable.

Yan Li waved, and Li Xiaolu pointed to herself, then stepped over and was pulled into his arms, laughing heartily.

"What you said makes a lot of sense."

Li Xiaolu then realized that Yan Li had overheard her words. Instead of feeling embarrassed, she curiously touched his muscles.

"It's not hard, it's a bit hot."

"any drinks?"

"I'm not thirsty."

Li Xiaolu shook her head, her face getting closer to Huo Siyan's eyes and body, when she suddenly realized something and turned to look at Huo Siyan.

"Why don't you leave yet?"

Huo Siyan strode over, hands on her hips, and looked at her: "Who said I was leaving?"

Li Xiaolu was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "That's fine, it'll be more lively with more people."

"puff!"

Yan Li almost lost his composure. Putting everything else aside, in terms of open-mindedness, this guy is absolutely exceptional.

"..."

The sound of running water came from the bathroom. Huo Siyan was startled when she saw Li Xiaolu standing still. Wasn't he just acting crazy? Absolutely crazy.

After pushing twice with no response, Huo Siyan's legs went weak, and she was about to go to the bathroom to find Yan Li when she suddenly heard Li Xiaolu let out a long sigh.

"call……"

"Damn, that scared me to death."

Huo Siyan patted her chest and complained irritably, but the latter ignored her and stared blankly at the ceiling. After a long while, she sighed and finally spoke.

"I regret."

"what?"

"I regret not making a move sooner. You too, you're keeping it all to yourself. Do you even deserve to be called a good sister?"

Huo Siyan was speechless. How could a best friend calculate things like that!
However, she did not expect that Li Xiaolu, despite her petite appearance, had good explosive power and endurance.

There was also a fierce streak in him. Yan Li was afraid that he was using too much force, and his voice cracked as he kept cheering. She was a little scared watching from the side.

A rolling pin unlocked the door—that's terrifying!
At this moment, Li Xiaolu suddenly slapped her forehead in annoyance: "Damn it, I forgot to call that bastard Li Chen."

"Are you crazy? Aren't you afraid he'll record it?"

“It’s okay, I won’t say anything. Let him hang up as soon as he hears me. Besides, I’ve already said what I wanted to say. He doesn’t know what I’m doing. What kind of cuckolding is this? How dare he wrong me? I’ll make him furious.”

Li Xiaolu, holding her phone, headed aggressively towards the bathroom, intending to give up her regret. However, upon reaching the door, her legs gave way, and she had to ask Huo Siyan for help.

"Third sister, please help me, let's do it together."

Huo Siyan sighed deeply. Li Xiaolu's regret was feigned; she genuinely felt a little regretful.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

The next day, after finishing the morning meeting, Yan Li saw Huo Siyan's text message and thought about what happened last night, feeling a little wistful.

As Yan Li expected, there was a surprise when Li Xiaolu and Huo Siyan were stacked together.

Although both are petite, one is delicate and pretty, while the other is charming and sweet.

Huo Siyan might be quite outgoing normally, but she's no match for Li Xiaolu. But that's precisely why one is crazy and the other is obedient. Their cooperation is delicious, if not spicy and exciting.

Unfortunately, while the software was excellent, the hardware was still somewhat lacking, making it unsuitable for prolonged battles. Otherwise, we could have enjoyed some spicy food tonight.

After regaining his senses, Yan Li put down his phone and began reading the overall planning report for "Painted Skin".

Seriously, you don't know how complicated things are until you shoot a blockbuster film.

There's so much to argue about just one actor's announcement.

After all, these two popular actresses are extremely busy and don't get along, so coordinating and efficiently utilizing their schedules is definitely a troublesome task.

The production team of "Painted Skin" changed two actors' coordinators for this project. Later, the producer took charge himself, and they even had to ask Yan Li for help.

It's no wonder there's a saying in the industry that "kings don't meet," because there are too many intricacies and concerns involved.

Even if the parties involved don't care, their teams or fans will still feel indignant.

In other words, Yan Li was able to hold down both soldiers, and Fan Xiaopang's team was Yi An's people, while Li Bingbing's team was mainly led by Li Xue. They could get along well. If it were another production team, they would have broken up before filming even started.

As for the fans, Yan Li can't control them, so let them be.

No matter how you try to treat everyone equally, with preconceived biases, everything Yan Li does is biased towards the other side.

But this is good too. There are arguments and controversies, which generate buzz. The box office appeal of "Painted Skin" is precisely the story between him and Shuangbing. If there were no drama, no one would watch it.

Yan Li wasn't afraid of a fight between the two sides, but rather worried that it would affect the official filming.

Although everyone understands that this is just a gimmick, and that many aspects are not true, but rather a publicity stunt.

But no one is perfect. When faced with insults, the rhetoric they're being set up, and the intentional or unintentional attacks they're being targeted, it's not always easy to hold back one's anger.

Not to mention, these two are old enemies, both with strong tempers. They have old grudges and new grievances, and it's just a matter of a single thought whether they can let go or take it seriously.
