Chapter 134: Chapter 134

Mu Ran tried hard to suppress her anger and said to him, “Don’t let your emotions take over.”

“I know you’re going through the toughest phase right now, and I should help you, but my parents have always thought I’m not up to the task. They’ve given me the opportunity to study abroad, to learn well. I’ve wanted to tell you for a while, but never had the chance. I’m leaving for abroad in a few days, so… I’m very sorry.” Jiao Yuyao explained.

Mu Ran listened to his long-winded explanation.

She turned her chair, her fingertips lightly tapping the armrest, her agitated mood gradually turning calm.

“It’s fine, go ahead. But don’t forget, the moment you leave, our contract regarding the studio shares will be terminated.”

She needed partners.

She was also very generous.

But for those who kick you when you’re down, Mu Ran would only tell them to get lost, the farther the better.

Jiao Yuyao’s pupils trembled, his lips slightly pale, “Mu Ran…”

“Please.” Mu Ran smiled, “I wish you a bright future, find better partners, and achieve a great career. Abroad, the treatment for producers is excellent, even surpassing that of directors. If you can develop abroad, you might climb even higher.”

Jiao Yuyao looked at her upturned red lips.

His heart cooled bit by bit; his body trembled slightly in fear, his lips quivered, wanting to tell her he wouldn’t go.

Mu Ran saw he wanted to speak, and simply stood up, cutting off his words.

High heels made a crisp sound in the meeting room.

Jiao Yuyao bowed his head, his bangs covered the tears that were about to fall.

She was indeed so ruthless.

Everyone in the meeting room was silent with fear. Director Mu had already caused a stir online today, attracting attention, and the studio was busy.

The film was about to start shooting.

No male lead.

And now, the producer was going to flee at the last minute.

Everyone thought his talk of studying abroad was a joke, just to show off, leaving only a superficial facade.

Everyone left the meeting room to get busy.

Mu Ran sat in her office chair and began looking for a new male actor, and also released news about finding a new producer.

Everyone finally knew that Mu Ran was about to film a horror movie.

Some thought that after winning such a big award, filming a horror movie was lowering her standards. Others thought Director Mu was always trying new fields, constantly stepping out of her comfort zone, which was very courageous.

The position of the producer in the domestic industry was lower than the director.

So when Mu Ran announced she was looking for a producer, many people came seeking collaboration.

Even on that day, over twenty producers came, Jiao Yuyao looked at these people, he felt terrible!

He really didn’t want to leave the studio, he just wanted Mu Ran to pay more attention to him.

He also wanted to help Mu Ran more during this important moment.

Not just leave like that.

But Mu Ran was unwilling to give him any face; not to mention in love, she refused to give him any expectations, and even in work, she wouldn’t give him extra opportunities.

But no matter what, today he couldn’t leave.

He wasn’t stupid.

His parents had advised him that Mu Ran’s studio was developing well, not only making a lot of money but also having a great reputation.

He should seize this chance to climb higher.

Wait until one day in the future when Director Mu is no longer successful and criticized for running out of talent, then going abroad for deeper learning would still be timely.

He had initially planned well.

Mu Ran faced such a big incident today, surely she couldn’t withstand the blow, even if it means less controversy, dealing with fewer troubles, she might still be willing to speak soft words to him.

But she didn’t even say one!

She even wished him a bright future.

And let the studio partners discuss contract issues with him, how could this work?

If he left Director Mu’s studio, went abroad to study, and found a poor crew to be a producer, how would others in the industry view him?

Jiao Yuyao waited for the other producers to leave before entering the office again. Seeing her in a good mood, unaffected by his departure, the words he had prepared turned into: “You quickly let go of the feelings we had.”

“Shut up, don’t make noise, get out!”

Mu Ran was very busy and didn’t bother to listen to his nonsense.

Today, with so many colleagues in the office, Mu Ran felt that considering the years of schoolmates’ relationships and the camaraderie of cooperation, she had already shown him great face.

And now he still hadn’t left.

Still lingering here.

Even daring to blame her!

“Mu Ran…” Jiao Yuyao tightly gripped the door handle, his veins bulging, his eyes gradually reddened, his voice hoarse, tinged with a crying tone, “You clearly know what I want, as long as you’re willing…”

“You’re not qualified!”

Mu Ran bluntly refused and finally lifted her eyes to look at him, “Your professional level is too low, your ability is not strong enough, your appearance isn’t what I like, so you don’t deserve my favor. Deep learning is great, let it clearly show you your own worth.

You should know, I hinted to you before, based on the fact that I needed a producer back then and you were willing to help me, as long as I was filming you could always be the producer, I guaranteed you a brilliant future, but you have been too greedy and even blackmailed me? Ha.”

“I didn’t!” Jiao Yuyao denied.

Mu Ran chuckled, dismissively.

Jiao Yuyao saw her attitude and felt even more hurt, remembering how affectionate she was with that person, questioned, “Is that person really that good?! That you are willing to give up our long-time collaboration.”

“My willingness is priceless, if I like him, he is the best.” Mu Ran saw him at the brink of rage and smiled slightly, “If you continue to rage here, I will call your parents, tell them their noble son screamed at me here with no manners or upbringing.”

“You’re too much!”

Jiao Yuyao left in anger with reddened eyes.

Mu Ran rolled her eyes.

Idiot.

In the entertainment circle under my influence, he could earn the respect of most people. Once he went abroad for study, his true abilities would be seen clearly.

He might not necessarily be too miserable.

But it would depend on his ability to adjust psychologically.

If he can accept working in a small production crew as a producer, there is certainly a promising future for him. After being honed several times in my movies, his abilities in the industry might not be top-notch, but are middle-tier. Now, many producers face not only ability issues but also relationship issues.

He says he can manage relationships well.

But that’s not the case.

He doesn’t know how to refuse.

His attitude isn’t firm enough, and he’ll get bullied sooner or later.

Mu Ran couldn’t care less, although Jiao Yuyao is foolish, his nature isn’t too bad.

Mu Ran isn’t worried about his subsequent actions.

More than anything, she only needs to look at Jiao Yuyao’s jokes.
