Chapter 484: A Small Interlude

Writing and recording the songs took Luo Quan one day, a total of three: one promotional song for the Olympics, one promotional song for Tokyo, and one song calling for peace and showing the truth, goodness, and beauty of humanity.

Luo Quan didn't know if this counted as over-fulfilling the task, but for the Olympics, it was fine to be serious. After all, this Olympics was held next to China, and being "separated by a thin layer of water," she could also catch some light.

After sending the songs to Vice President Fujita, she naturally received a bunch of thanks and flattery. Luo Quan also politely dealt with it, then chose to give the entire crew a day off.

Approaching June, the weather had become hot. For this period, they had been outdoors, and half of the work was filming fighting scenes, so everyone from staff to actors was quite tired.

Working at high intensity for a long time could easily make people sick. She wasn't the "Zhou Bapi" in "Rooster Crowing at Midnight," so there was no need to rush the progress like this. Occasionally relaxing wasn't a bad thing.

However, the crew staff had a day off, but she didn't give herself a day off. She still sat in front of the Yage computer, repeatedly playing and editing the recorded fighting scenes, and looking for shots that needed to be re-filmed.

Junko on the bed next to her was much more relaxed. As soon as she had a day off, she lay on the bed and played with her phone. She had just read "The Actor's Self-Cultivation" for a while, but put it aside after flipping through a few pages.

"Oh my, why is it like this?"

Luo Quan, who was busy, heard the complaint from Junko and looked over: "What happened?"

"Quan-chan, do you remember Ye Kai?" Junko held her phone, her expression very depressed.

"I know. The prosecutor of the entertainment industry, one of the top five young masters in China, a top-tier rich second generation." Luo Quan said jokingly, "Why, you wouldn't be falling in love with him, would you?"

"How is that possible!" Junko immediately retorted, then said with a wronged expression: "He did make this request last year, but I refused directly and told him not to spend money on me in the future, and we should just be friends."

"But he has been relentless. Every once in a while, he would send me some strange things, like: 'Only the magistrate is allowed to set fires, but you are not allowed to leave me'..."

"Pfft!" Luo Quan laughed out loud. This young master's level of picking up girls wasn't very good; it wasn't even half the level of her father when he was young.

After laughing, Luo Quan said seriously: "These cheesy pick-up lines are indeed a bit stupid, but at least they are sincere. If he were full of honeyed words, it would be troublesome if he could make your heart flutter."

"If he only said these things, it would be fine. I could send a smiley face. But recently, he would send some threatening words every few days, and he has always wanted to meet me." Junko mentioned this, her expression becoming very unnatural. "Just now, he even told me to go to Beijing to see him immediately, saying 'bear the consequences if you don't'... I told him I was filming a movie in Japan, but he hasn't replied yet."

"There's such a thing?" Luo Quan, who was originally laughing, immediately became serious.

Originally, she thought this was just the clumsy daily routine of a stupid rich second generation. Based on what Wen Xia and the others described before, this Ye Kai seemed to be Junko's die-hard fan.

She thought this was a romantic drama of a rich young master crazily pursuing a top idol. Now it seemed, that wasn't the case at all.

"Ding-dong!"

"He replied!" Junko immediately clicked on the message, and Luo Quan also sat over.

"Filming what damn movie? I want to see you immediately right now. If not, tell that damn director to come and talk to me!"

After reading the message, Luo Quan took the phone and flipped up to check the chat history.

It was very, very long, but 80% of it was Ye Kai talking to himself. Junko was just replying politely, and every time the topic turned to taking the relationship further, she refused directly and told him not to throw money anymore.

With the Spring Festival as a node, Ye Kai was just avoiding the topic.

And after the Spring Festival, Ye Kai's language was obviously much more intense and aggressive, as if he were a hunter who had lost his patience.

"How many times have you met in private?" Luo Quan had to figure things out before deciding to solve the problem.

Junko said cautiously: "Five or six times, I guess. It was when we were holding concerts. He bribed the staff to get in privately. The first few times he sent flowers, which I accepted. Later he sent gifts, but I didn't take them."

Luo Quan nodded: "This handling is not a problem, so that this guy won't say you took his things and kept him hanging."

"Quan-chan, what should I do next? Refuse clearly again?"

"You just watch from the side and let me deal with him." Luo Quan said, directly sending a video call invitation to Ye Kai.

Three seconds later, the invitation was accepted, and a not-so-handsome face appeared on the screen.

In Luo Quan's impression, rich second generations were all like those in novels, tall and handsome, just like her cousin Stukart, cousin Augustus, or Seifert and Senior Jinggong.

But now it seemed that the genes of the rich weren't all that outstanding.

Looking at the great beauty appearing in front of him, Ye Kai was obviously very stunned, never expecting Luo Quan to appear in front of him:

"Why is it you? Where is Junko?"

"Junko said you wanted to find the director. I am the 'damn director' you are looking for. May I ask what's the matter?" Luo Quan crossed her hands, and although her words were very polite, anyone could hear the sarcasm toward Ye Kai.

"Uh... I didn't know she was filming a movie for you. It was my abruptness. Sorry." Ye Kai laughed and apologized, giving himself a step down.

"Don't pester Junko anymore in the future. She should have said many times that she doesn't want to go further with you. If you are willing to continue being a fan, we welcome you. If you are not willing and want to unfollow, it doesn't matter."

"However, I think it's better to delete this WeChat for now. Junko is timid by nature, and I'm scared by the content you sent. If you keep sending it, I'm afraid she'll be scared into some illness."

Luo Quan didn't talk nonsense with Ye Kai, directly asking him to delete each other and stop disturbing Junko's life.

And Ye Kai, upon hearing Luo Quan's words, was stunned first, then pulled up half of his mouth and smiled: "I don't know if Junko is timid, but you are quite bold... Besides, who are you to make such a decision for her? Do you have this right?"

"I am her boss, and she is an artist in my company." Luo Quan leaned back gently. "Young Master Ye, I know your family has money. However, a girl who can't be chased can't be forced even if you have money. Let go early so that everyone can leave a bit of decency for each other."

The implication was that if you continue to pester, don't blame her for tearing off the mask directly.

If it were an ordinary person talking to Ye Kai like this, it probably wouldn't have a good ending.

But if it was Luo Quan saying this, even if Ye Kai's face was incomparably gloomy at this time, he didn't explode and scold.

Young Master Huang was a lesson from the past. In China, where guns are completely banned, this woman was an invincible existence.

And on the internet, she possessed a more terrifying influence than his father, and public opinion couldn't do anything to her at all.

Secretly or openly, he seemed to have no way to deal with her. If comparing family background, Luo Quan's grandfather's company was the world's largest real estate company, and the two were not on the same level.

Ye Kai, who had always considered himself "above others," also felt the feeling of being crushed in all directions at this time, feeling a bit angry and ashamed, but he really didn't dare to scold directly.

It wasn't that he was afraid of offending Luo Quan, but because even if he really scolded her, he probably wouldn't be Luo Quan's opponent.

When so many people were blackening her on Weibo before, she caught those black fan leaders one by one and scolded them until they closed their mics. If he really had a verbal battle with her, Ye Kai would probably be asking for humiliation.

However, "losing the person but not the formation." Although he was suppressed by Luo Quan and couldn't say a harsh word, he wouldn't just admit defeat:

"Miss Luo, I hope you can understand my feelings for Junko. I really like her. One-third of the votes for her debut were cast by me. You can't ignore this affection, right?"

Luo Quan shook her head: "Junko should indeed be grateful for these votes, but not at the cost of herself. Love cannot be forced. She doesn't like you, so it's useless for you to work hard alone."

"I'll say it again: it's better for you to let go early. If you really can't swallow that breath, just report the amount of money you spent on Junko, and I will return it in full."

"Money? Do I lack that bit of money? Money is a fart!" Ye Kai suddenly became excited. "What about the time I spent on her this year? What can she use to repay the feelings I owe?"

Looking at Ye Kai, who seemed to be losing control, Luo Quan had no expression.

If she hadn't seen the WeChat messages Ye Kai sent in the past few months, Luo Quan might have felt some sympathy for him.

But now, she could only "hehe."

This guy looked like a "licker," but he was just satisfying his increasingly high happiness threshold.

For rich people like this, they had felt ordinary happiness countless times. What they lacked was the happiness that ordinary people couldn't reach, or higher-level challenges.

"Licking" was just a manifestation, and when they found that their feigned true feelings had no effect, they would immediately return to their original appearance—the ugly face of a playboy.

If this were in ancient times, he would be a scumbag exactly like Gao Ya Nei.

Luo Quan saw these people and things very clearly, so after knowing that Junko and Ye Kai were in contact, she let her refuse clearly when encountering a confession, not giving him any illusions.

It's just that she didn't expect this "Young Master Ye" to have such a thick skin, and only revealed his true colors after being refused so many times.

Compared to other impatient rich second generations, this could be considered quite "affectionate," perhaps he didn't just want a novelty for Junko, and really invested feelings.

But since his threatening words came out, these "ifs" all lost their meaning.

Because she herself had been threatened before, that was her most dangerous moment. If it weren't for that Desert Eagle, she would have been finished.

Now she was different from before. The villains of the past didn't dare to provoke her anymore, but there would always be people who became the targets of these villains.

Luo Quan couldn't do anything about what she couldn't see, but as long as she could see it, she wouldn't let these villains succeed.

What's more, the villain now stretched his claws toward her friend.

They all said that Chinese "female boxing" wasn't a good descriptor, so she could be considered to be rectifying the name for this term now!

"Since you don't accept it, there's no way. In short, our Junko can't bear your love. If you really have accumulated emotions that can't be vented and want to pursue excitement, you can come and pursue me." Luo Quan said, squeezing her fist, making a series of crisp sounds like popping beans.

This was the most direct threat of force. Sometimes communication between people is useless with language; taking action can be more effective.

Sure enough, Ye Kai saw Luo Quan like this, as if remembering the miserable state of Young Master Huang, and his anger cooled down a lot.

"Fine, we'll meet again!" Ye Kai said, hanging up the video call.

"Damn, dare to hang up my phone first." Luo Quan cursed, directly reaching out to delete the friend. Fortunately, her IQ came online at the critical moment, and she took screenshots of the call history between Junko and Ye Kai, from the first sentence to the last.

Although this "Young Master Ye," fearing her status, probably wouldn't make any more trouble later.

But "prevention is better than cure." If this guy's brain twitched and he really intended to tear off the mask and make things big, then these chat records were evidence. No matter how big it got, the one who was reasonable would be them.

For Luo Quan, taking screenshots was a bitter task, because her peripheral vision would intentionally or unintentionally sweep over the cheesy pick-up lines Ye Kai sent.

She really didn't know how Junko endured these and still replied with a smiley face. If it were her, she would have let this Ye Kai learn what "EQ" is long ago.

However, thinking about it carefully, Junko was Japanese and probably didn't know the memes in these pick-up lines. After reading them, she probably only thought Ye Kai was a strange person, so she wouldn't be too embarrassed.

"Is it solved?" Junko asked with worry. She didn't know that it would eventually develop to the point of a big quarrel. She heard from Wen Xia and the others that this Ye Kai's father seemed to be very rich and was one of the top rich people in China.

In Japan, financial cliques didn't say they could cover the sky with one hand, but they weren't people ordinary people could afford to provoke.

So Junko was actually very worried that Quan-chan would offend this young master of the financial clique because of her.

"Solved." Luo Quan was backing up after taking screenshots. Seeing that Junko seemed very nervous, she guessed what she was thinking, so she patted her shoulder with a smile: "Don't worry, Chinese rich people and Japanese/Korean rich people are not synonyms. No matter how rich they are, they can't turn the sky. Ordinary friends might not be able to afford to provoke them, but if things get big, these rich people also dare not go too far."

"Besides, my grandfather is richer than his family's company. Let his old man come; he wouldn't dare to provoke me."

Hearing this, Junko's hanging heart finally let go.

When the problem of Ye Kai, which had been bothering her since her debut, was solved, she felt much more relaxed. ===== CHAPTER 485 =====
