All the dried fish in the empire belong to Princess Elvis

Chapter 115

"Yes, my mother also said that I won't let me see you, but there is a man's voice on the phone, and my father's voice."

When Xia Mu recalled his father's wailing on the phone, his eyes became astringent.

At first, she kept secrets for the king, she just wanted to exchange for the safety of her family, but now that her father is in danger, she has nothing to hide.

She looked up at Juanjuan, "If I say it, you have to promise me to deal with it calmly, don't confront that person directly, don't intensify the conflict, otherwise, my family and I will suffer, I have been hiding this matter, It’s also because of this concern.”

Curly nodded: "Who is it?"

Xia Mu lowered his voice: "It's your father."

-

Xia Mu didn't dare to turn over the old accounts. She didn't tell the reasons for Juanjuan's seventh birthday party and internship date. She only confessed the part about meeting the king after returning from Balan Island. go through.

She had to let Juanjuan beware of the king, but she didn't dare to tell the whole story, she still wanted to hold some chips, so as not to completely tear her face and become a fish on the king's knife board.

Juan Juan's reaction seemed annoyed, but he still maintained the restrained silence of the upper class nobles.

Listening patiently to her experience after returning to Balan Island, Juanjuan only replied "I will take care of this matter", sent her home, and then went to the hospital to pick up Aunt Shen and the others.

After returning home, Xia Mu washed up and went to bed, thinking that she would suffer from insomnia, but the mental tension all night made her so weak that she almost collapsed. As soon as she lay down on the soft mattress, her consciousness began to blur.

A rare night without dreams.

In the past, she was used to waking up 5 minutes before the alarm clock rang, and her sleep was light, and the sound of heavier footsteps outside the door could wake her up.

But the next morning, when the alarm clock rang for the third time, she was still in a deep sleep, and it was Dodo who finally woke her up.

"Sister, don't sleep, should you go to the set?"

Xia Mu woke up in a daze. To her, this level of sleep was almost a night of fainting.

When I opened my eyes, I still felt dizzy, my limbs were weak, and I didn't even have the strength to stand up.

It was the first time in her life that she wanted to stay in bed so broken. Looking at Duo Duo in her pajamas with disheveled hair, she also began to recall her lazy life during the winter vacation.

The more I thought about it, the more I didn't want to get up, I closed my eyes and fumbled for the mobile phone on the bedside table, called the production manager, and wanted to ask for a sick day.

The drama manager still had an official tone, saying that he wanted to ask the director.

After hanging up the phone, she came back within 5 minutes and asked Xia Mu to overcome the difficulties and insist on not asking for leave, otherwise she would lose tens of thousands of dollars a day if she stopped working, which would have to be deducted from her salary.

Xia Mu was so wronged that she wanted to grit her teeth and say, "Just buckle it!"

But when the words came to his lips, he was still suppressed by the phrase "tens of thousands a day", and replied muttering: "That's how it is."

The drama manager wanted to confirm with her, but Xia Mu hung up the phone in a fit of anger, and lay on the bed with her phone in her arms.

It's poor to assemble with the play, it doesn't work at all.

However, there is one person who can pamper her, and she knows it.

She has a little evil heart--she has known the crown prince for so long, and she has never acted like a tiger, what a waste?Why not act like a spoiled child today.

Raise the phone, find Juan Juan's number, and dial it.

My heartbeat started to speed up inexplicably.

"Hey?"

Juan Juan's sleepy voice came from the other end of the phone.

Xia Mu tensed up, like dancing ballet while standing on the edge of a knife.

Gripping the phone tightly, he yelled out like an endorsement: "Juan Juan, I'm not feeling well and wanted to ask for a day off, but the crew refused!"

Juanjuan: "..."

There was an awkward silence...

Xia Mu regretted it!

Hurry up and go to work!

There is nothing embarrassing about being rejected by the crew, if you are ignored by the bear cubs...

Ah ah ah ah ah!Why should she humiliate herself!

Your Highness Egg Roll just woke up, the reflex arc can circle the moon.

For Xia Mu, it seemed that the other side had been silent for half a century, but in fact it was only a dozen seconds.

The reflex arc finally completed the global travel, and Juanjuan sat up from the bed suddenly after regaining his senses, and asked her, "What's uncomfortable? I'll take you to the hospital."

Xia Mu's flushed cheeks finally cooled down a bit.

Well, Juan Juan's reaction was fairly passable, and she didn't seem to hear her intention to sue.

Xia Mu twisted her body and muttered softly: "It's okay, I just went to bed late last night, I was a little tired, and the crew didn't let me take sick leave..."

The other side was silent for another half a century.

The cheeks that had just melted turned red again, Xia Mu was in great pain, and decided to never talk to the bear cubs who were ten thousand beats slower in the morning from now on!

Suddenly there was a sigh from Juan Juan on the other end of the phone, and there seemed to be a muffled sound of falling back into the pillow.

Duan Zitong's voice was full of lazy jokes: "Are you trying to stay in bed?"

Xia Mu: "..."

What about royal demeanor!

Is it really appropriate to expose people's small thoughts so straightforwardly!

"That's not it!" Xia Mu wanted to hit the wall: "I'm really uncomfortable!"

Xiong Cub's sneer passed through the phone and hit Xia Mu's face.

"Understood, continue to sleep, I will pick you up at your house at noon, and I want to eat something."

Xia Mu hung up the phone, pursed her lips and complained a few words, but felt relieved, turned over, and continued to enter the dreamland with peace of mind.

After sleeping until ten o'clock, Xia Mu stretched and got up to wash.

Xia Mu was very troubled by the threatening phone call to let her leave Juanjuan last night.

Rationally, she felt that this must be a clumsy conspiracy by those people to blame the king.

Emotionally, she believed fragilely that her father was really imprisoned by the king's people.

These two thoughts kept fighting with each other in her heart, making her on the verge of a nervous breakdown, but she couldn't reveal it to her mother.

Because once she said it, the mother would not be entangled at all, but would immediately believe that the king had taken the father away.

Xia Mu could feel that the person Juanjuan suspected was Aunt Shen, and thought that the king had no suspicion.

Even after knowing that the king asked Xia Mu to leave him in private, he did not doubt that he had taken Xia Mu's father away.

Juanjuan is emotionally partial to his father, just like if someone said that Xia Mu's parents are suspicious, Xia Mu would not believe it.

Therefore, there are blind spots in the judgments of both parties. Xia Mu can only use his reason to remain neutral, follow the clues further, and wait for the truth to surface.

As for the threat of the phone call last night, she didn't take it seriously.

The other party forbade her to be with Juanjuan, just to isolate her, isolate her from foreign aid, and plunge her into helpless despair.

So late, stealing a mobile phone urgently to call and threaten her, but it shows that the other party is in a mess, and she naturally won't fall for it.

If they really attacked Dad, they would never stop because she left Juanjuan.

After Xia Mu washed up, Aunt Shen came out with a bowl of mashed potatoes covered with strawberry jam--

"Mumu woke up, don't you need to film today? Are you hungry? Auntie made some desserts, fill your stomach first, and have lunch later."

"No, thank you, auntie, I'm going out for dinner later."

"Are you going out with His Highness?" Aunt Shen asked her with a smile.

"Yes." Xia Mu was a little apprehensive.

Because Juanjuan was suspicious of Aunt Shen, she looked at Aunt Shen now and she was not quite right, and felt that she had a sudden onset of illness last night.

Ask her tactfully: "Auntie, are you feeling better?"

"It's an old problem!" Aunt Shen said with a smile, "Asthma."

Xia Mu nodded and asked her: "Well... I haven't finished asking about last night, what's the name of the agent you mentioned? Can you tell me? I promise I won't tell anyone else."

Aunt Shen sighed: "Actually, I really don't want you children to get involved with this matter. I have already told your mother the name of that person. You can ask her and let her decide whether to let you get involved."

Xia Mu was overjoyed, but remained calm, turned around and ran to question Su Yumo.

Su Yumo was very disgusted with her daughter's efforts to trace Shen Xiaoyu's background, and muttered displeasedly: "Instead of persuading that curly-haired brat to let His Majesty release him, you are in a hurry to investigate your own family? You are not married yet, Just vent your anger through the same nostrils as the Duan family?"

Xia Mu frowned: "Mom, what you have said recently is too harsh, I just don't want to let go of every clue. Ever since Aunt Shen came to our house, there has been a lot of things, big and small, even if the king chased her , then I have to find out her background first, right?"

Seeing her annoyed, Su Yumo also realized that he had been like a cannonball recently, and his attitude finally softened: "I just want to remind you, don't think from Duan Zitong's point of view, what you see may not be true, What you hear may be lies, only family members will not betray you."

"Your Aunt Shen was in the hospital last night, so she told me the identity of the person from the Secret Service. I also contacted him privately in the morning to confirm what Aunt Shen said."

"She didn't lie to us. The secret letter was sent by the secret agent, and [-]% of the source of income was also sent by him. That kid was Ah Heng's subordinate at the beginning, and he was also regarded as an apprentice. He was a repayer."

Xia Mu looked surprised, and asked urgently: "What did the agent say? He also said that the king deliberately framed you and Dad for the sake of international conflicts?"

Su Yumo sneered: "I said it earlier, this matter cannot be faked."

Xia Mu: "..."

There is a sense of despair that travels through mountains and rivers, but finally returns to the original place.

Xia Mu's back was dripping with cold sweat. After careful consideration, he felt that this conclusion might not be comprehensive. Could it be that the agent must be innocent?Maybe it's Aunt Shen's friend?

She didn't dare to express her thoughts, lest her mother say that she and Juanjuan were "out of the same nostril".

Xia Mu walked back to the living room, it was almost eleven o'clock, she was a little worried, so she called the drama manager, wondering if Juanjuan had come forward to ask for leave for her.

Different from the morning, the attitude of the production manager has become kind and enthusiastic. After greeting her, he also said that he wished her a happy life and hoped to have the opportunity to meet again next year.

There is still a chance to meet again...

Xia Mu's five thunders struck the top!

Why does this sound like the movie is finished?

The bear cub wouldn't just help her disqualify her from the role, right?

She just wants to rest for a day, not for a lifetime!

200 million!

200 million salary ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Xia Mu almost had a myocardial infarction, and hurriedly explained to the drama manager: "I'm already cured! I can resume work tomorrow!"

"No need, the crew has already made arrangements, please rest assured to recuperate!"

"No, no, no! I'm not sick, and the movie is halfway through shooting, how can I just stop it! How much money do you have to pay for this?"

The production manager was stunned for a while, then smiled and said, "You misunderstood Ms. Xia, instead of stopping the filming, His Royal Highness called in the morning and asked the crew to finish filming immediately, divide the film into two parts, and the finished part will be produced and released first. The second part will wait for Ms. Xia to rest for a while before continuing to shoot. The first part of the film is already finished."

Xia Mu: "..."

Can this be done?

After thinking about it, I still felt it was inappropriate, so I asked him: "But, if you make two films, you have to invest twice as much, right? Brother Liu's salary is not cheap..."

"Oh! How can I let you worry about this!"

The production manager is extremely thoughtful and excited: "The dream of our filmmakers is to make the most touching work. If we can divide it into two parts, we can keep more precious and detailed shots. This is not a value that can be estimated by money!"

Xia Mu: "..."

It's impossible for this money-obsessed crew to tell her this kind of chicken soup about dreams.

If the drama manager didn't take the wrong medicine, then Duan Zitong must have given them greater benefits!

Xia Mu panicked, how much does it cost to buy a crew?

Hastily argued: "This won't work! I have to continue acting, and the filming is almost over. How can I suddenly double the investment? I can't cheat your crew. I want to continue acting. I'll tell His Highness right away!"

"Hey! Don't don't!"

When the drama manager heard that she was serious, he shuddered in fright, stopped talking about "the value of dreams", and confessed to Xia Mu honestly: "We won't lose money! Miss Xia!"

"The first part of the film came out, with the gimmick of the crown prince participating in it. It is conservatively estimated that the global box office will be more than one billion. Now that His Royal Highness has asked to participate in the second part, then by then, the sponsor's investment alone will definitely be enough to recoup the cost. Please, please don't refuse His Highness's kindness, the studio will offer you a more suitable salary!"

Xia Mu: "..."

She was just at the tip of the horns, and only remembered that making a movie required investment, but she forgot that she could also make money.

When "The Shore of Dawn" was released overseas, the box office broke the historical record just because of the rumor that "Prince Voor was acting as a substitute in the end credits".

At that time, the headline of the Laker Times described "Dawn Shore" as "the box office bomb of the early century".

And this "Night is Coming" officially participated by the crown prince will definitely break the record set by the previous movie.

Now that Juanjuan has voluntarily requested to split it into two parts, the production team naturally couldn't wish for it.

Xia Mu breathed a sigh of relief, and calmly accepted the crew's arrangement.

After hanging up the phone, I began to ponder in my heart, how much will I get for the next step?

The more she thought about it, the happier she was, sitting on the sofa and giggling, she was going to become a little rich woman.

A little after 11:30, the doorbell rang.

Knowing that it was Juanjuan, Xia Mu rushed to open the door, but was blocked by Su Yumo who happened to be passing by.

"Take Xia Mu out to eat? Why do you want to go out to eat, ready-made meals at home."

As soon as Su Yumo saw the curly-haired cub outside the door, Su Yumo activated the defensive barrier, and the image of her daughter being coaxed to bed and abandoned in the hotel crying and jumping off the building had already appeared in her mind.

"It's mainly for business. I want to take her out to find some clues in the case."

Duan Zitong's pen stood straight outside the door, as if after failing an exam, he forged a parent's signature and was being inspected by the class teacher.

But His Royal Highness has superb acting skills, and basically even believed the lies.

Xia Mu was blocked in the room by her mother, separated from Juan Juan by an unreachable air, like a Rapunzel locked in a castle, wishing to throw out her braids and let her sweetheart climb in along the wall.
