After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him-Chapter 601 - 599: There’s Actually a Limit
Chapter 601: Chapter 599: There’s Actually a Limit
Xia Wenjin naturally did not know that her every move was under the surveillance of Fengya Ichiro and Pei Huai.
Even she felt her act was seamless.
Xia Wenjin’s gaze swept over the two bodyguards, and she relaxed considerably.
Her hand gently knocked on the back of the chair, "I’m fed up with the fresh meat from Country R, and now I’ve set my eyes on this one domestically. Either figure out a way for me or get lost immediately!"
Xia Wenjin put on the airs of the Fengya Family’s young mistress, lifted her chin, and coldly watched the two bodyguards in front of her.
This left the two bodyguards speechless.
They had to admit that this woman did bear some resemblance to Feng Ya Meizi when she impersonated her.
Especially when she was being annoying, she was particularly similar.
The two bodyguards exchanged a glance and could only firmly say, "As the young mistress commands, we will naturally do!"
"Yes! We are the young mistress’s dogs, whatever the young mistress tells us to do, we’ll do it!"
Their words, both spoken and unspoken, were full of loyalty, but decidedly lacked any real suggestions.
Joking aside, they could play dogs, they could go to their deaths, but that... was totally unnecessary!
Xia Wenjin listened to their loyal words, and her mood greatly improved, "Since you both are so sensible, then I’ll assign a task to each of you."
Saying this, she pointed at one of the bodyguards, "You go buy me some drugs, the kind that makes men insatiable, you understand?"
The bodyguard’s heart sank suddenly, and his whole demeanor shifted.
This woman actually wanted to drug Xia Wenyan?
My God, if he informed the head of the Rimu Family, who knew if he would be torn apart on the spot.
But if he did not tell him, he figured he would die even faster.
The bodyguard took a deep breath and nodded to Xia Wenjin, "Understood, young mistress; when do you plan to use this drug?"
Since Xia Wenjin was determined to drug Xia Wenyan, it was better for them to gather more information.
The other bodyguard quickly got his intention and chimed in to help, "Young mistress, although the activities of the young master of the Xia Family are fixed, the places he stays at are not easy to approach. Our plan must definitely be more meticulous."
Xia Wenjin nodded, seemingly agreeing with what they said, "That’s right, it needs to be meticulous. I haven’t decided yet when to use the drug. Buy it and keep it with you for now, and I will tell you when it’s time to use it."
Her words, in turn, relaxed the two bodyguards quite a bit.
Fortunately, they were to keep the drugs on them and would be informed when it was time to use them, so they wouldn’t be too passive.
With this reassurance, the two bodyguards appeared much more relaxed when they faced Xia Wenjin.
"Whenever the young mistress has an idea, we will do our utmost to relieve the young mistress of her worries!"
"As soon as the young mistress commands, we will brave fire and water without hesitation!"
Xia Wenjin, listening to the flattery of the two bodyguards, was very pleased.
She crossed her legs and sat inside the sofa, looking extremely smug as she watched the two bodyguards, "You two are quite loyal. Rest assured, when I return to Country R, I will definitely ask my father to reward you handsomely."
"Thank you, young mistress!"
"Thank you, young mistress!"
"Mhm," Xia Wenjin waved her hand and seemed to suddenly remember something, "Lately, help me investigate Lu Zhaozhao, see what dramas she has taken on recently."
Xia Wenyan usually visited the film sets to see Lu Zhaozhao. If she could be in the same drama as Lu Zhaozhao, she figured it would be easier to make a move on Xia Wenyan.
Thinking this, Xia Wenjin’s eyes unconsciously narrowed, as if she was confident her plan was foolproof.
The two bodyguards fell silent for a moment, then promptly nodded, "Young mistress, rest assured, we should be able to investigate this matter quickly."
"Hmm, after you find out, help me find a way to get into the cast as well, preferably as a female supporting role, like number five or six," Xia Wenjin instructed again.
Now, the bodyguards were in a bit of a dilemma.
One of them spoke with a somewhat unpleasant expression, "Young mistress, if we were in Country R, this would not be a difficult task, but in our own country..."
The bodyguard stopped short but was clear in his implication.
That was that they couldn’t manipulate the entertainment industry domestically.
They couldn’t secure her a role.
Xia Wenjin’s brow immediately furrowed, "It can be done in Country R but not here? Don’t you have any brains? If you can’t get in, can’t you bribe your way in?"
In the domestic entertainment industry, unless it was a big-budget production, for small-cost TV dramas or movies, a little bribery would go a long way. Not to mention a fifth or sixth female role, even the lead role was up for grabs.
But in bigger productions, from lead to the fourth female lead, some value is typically expected.
As for the fifth female lead and beyond, it’s all about who has the harder connections and more money.
Xia Wenjin primarily wanted to be in the same crew as Lu Zhaozhao. Any role would do except for an extra.
But if she stated this, she was worried that the two bodyguards would not be dedicated to the task.
Therefore, she said she wanted a fifth or sixth female role.
Although the bodyguard did not know Xia Wenjin’s thoughts, his reasoning was still present.
"Young mistress, although Lu Zhaozhao is not any best actor or actress, her popularity in the entertainment industry has always been high. The resources she can get into are all pretty good. Even if we throw money at it, we can probably only get a bit role..."
The bodyguard knew that even if he dissuaded Xia Wenjin, she would still look for other means. It was better to set clear expectations now.
Then they could also report back to the head of the Rimu Family as needed.
Xia Wenjin’s eyebrows twitched, not expecting the bodyguard to be so blunt.
Her brow furrowed slightly, "I..."
"Young mistress, our expenses abroad are limited, and if we need a large sum, it probably needs to be explained to the family head," the bodyguard began, not waiting for Xia Wenjin to finish.
Xia Wenjin, who had opened her mouth to speak, suddenly closed it halfway.
Previously she had been carefree with her spending, not paying much attention to this matter.
She knew the identity her current face held was that of the Feng Ya Family young mistress, and the money that came with it was not insignificant.
But she did not expect that even the young mistress of the Feng Ya Family had a spending limit.
Xia Wenjin fell silent for a moment, eventually conceding, "Then first go and find out what drama Lu Zhaozhao will be in next. If it’s not a big investment, then give it a try. If it really isn’t possible, just try to find a role with more screen time."
If the role was too much of an extra, she would not be able to get close to Lu Zhaozhao.
Let alone use Lu Zhaozhao to lure Xia Wenyan.
Hearing Xia Wenjin back down, the bodyguards also inwardly heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, although Xia Wenjin had taken their young mistress’s appearance, she hadn’t inherited their young mistress’s temperament.
If it had been their real young mistress, she would have smashed them in the face with a teacup for their words, cursing them as useless...
