Chapter 157: A repeated misunderstanding
The food arrived at the table and Meng Rin oddly remained silent. Her glassy gaze looked deep in contemplation.
Mingshen was starving so he was already happily digging into his food.
"Em~ Delicious. Yes, this is what class food is," he nodded in appreciation.
Jia shook her head at his enthusiasm and looked at Meng Rin. "Is it okay if I ask some questions? I am a little curious."
"Yeah sure. In fact, I am of the same opinion as Haoyu," she pursed her lips. "I don’t think Meymey would have killed Director Wan. So if my answers could help you in decoding something then please ask by all means..."
Jia smiled. "Thank you. You told me about Chow Mey. What can you tell me about her equation with Wan Guanting?"
Meng Rin said, "It’s not so friendly if I may say and now you can understand why. Director Wan didn’t want her at first for the role. These were the rumors floating around then. It was hard to say if it was true or not. But when the shooting started, Meymey always kept her distance from him. She would only interact with him on a perfunctory and need to basis. I had even seen her blatantly ignoring him one day. Director Wan looked quite furious that she didn’t give him any face."
Mingshen chimed in as he elegantly sipped on his wine. "He doesn’t have a very handsome face to give face to begin with."
"..."
"Ignore him," Jia said. "Is that the only source of friction between them that you are aware of?"
Meng Rin gave it a thought. "Yeah. I don’t think there was anything else. This was mainly the gossip I was hearing."
