Quick Transmigration: The Mad Beauty Refuses to Be the Scapegoat!-Chapter 194 - 23: The Variety Show Control Group Refuses to Be Cannon Fodder (Part 23)
"Director, since the original intention of our show is to make us experience the feelings between a mother and child beyond blood ties, tell me, do I count as Yangyang’s mom or not?"
The director was slightly taken aback but nodded directly.
"Of course, otherwise why am I doing this show? Isn’t it to show everyone that a good family relationship can be established even without blood ties?"
"But the deputy director just said I don’t deserve to be Yangyang’s mother. He also said only his words count here, and it scared me into thinking that even the director had to follow his command."
The deputy director immediately denied it.
"I never said that!"
"You did, I heard it."
"Where’s the evidence? I’ve worked behind the director for so many years, and you think a few words can drive a wedge between us?"
Jiang Lai smiled and pointed at the nearby live broadcast equipment.
"You probably only had time to turn off the video, but not the audio, right? If you want to know what the deputy director just said, open it and have a look. Not only did the people present hear it, but the audience in the live broadcast room should have heard it too."
Sure enough, the live broadcast equipment had only the video turned off, and everything the deputy director said was recorded. After the director listened, his face turned unusually grim. He coldly stared at the deputy director for a while and then said gravely.
"You can go back and rest; you won’t need to participate in the filming for the next few days."
"Director, those were just words spoken in anger. I was only trying to teach this brat a lesson..."
The director glanced at him.
"It’s not your place to discipline the children here, nor are you in charge of this program!"
The deputy director was momentarily speechless, not daring to say anything more. After all, the director is the most reputable mentor in the industry, with many domestic and international hit variety shows under his personal guidance. Being able to follow in his footsteps has brought a lot of benefits, at least allowing him to tag the name of the director’s disciple when going out. If things really blow up, it would be hard for him to survive in this industry in the future.
His ride soon arrived, and after packing up and handing over his work, the deputy director left. He originally intended to say something to Mo Wanwan before leaving, but since she had fainted, he didn’t have the chance to say anything and simply handed her phone to another staff member.
The deputy director had left, but the situation with Yangyang hitting someone was still not resolved.
Wang Xuan’er came over with Dan Dan. She had just been busy in the field, covered in mud and looking disheveled. As soon as she heard Dan Dan had been hit, she hurried over, and her already worn-out patience completely vanished the moment she saw her child had been hit.
In front of the director, she looked at Jiang Lai without any courtesy, her tone harsh.
"Dan Dan, where did Yangyang hit you?"
Dan Dan, feeling wronged, pointed to his nose and chin.
"He hit my nose and here, and even kicked me twice."
Wang Xuan’er stared at Jiang Lai.
"Do you want to hit him yourself, or should I?"
Seeing this, Yangyang immediately stood in front of Jiang Lai and stubbornly said.
"Dan Dan hit me first! It’s all recorded. Don’t think you can bully her just because you’re taller and stronger than my mom! I’m not easy to bully!"
The director, who was about to mediate: "..."
This brat really deserves a beating, he doesn’t say anything nice.
Wang Xuan’er’s nose was crooked with anger. It’s one thing for her to be bullied by Jiang Lai, but now her son was being bullied by his son. When has she ever been this aggrieved in her life!
"If you don’t talk properly, do you believe I will personally teach you a lesson?"
"What about you? Do you need me to teach you a lesson on behalf of your parents?"
Jiang Lai spoke up, and the entire place fell silent. Even though the director had cleared out the room for private resolution, Jiang Lai’s words made the director feel the situation was serious.
Both of them are not easy to deal with. Wang Xuan’er is a second-generation star, started at the top with her parents’ support, and has had a smooth journey, with a big temper and high spirits. Being challenged by Jiang Lai provoked her, and she rushed up intending to fight. The director tried to stop her but was scratched on the face by her nails, unable to hold her back.
Seeing Jiang Lai’s face was about to be scratched, in the next second, it was Wang Xuan’er who screamed.
Thankfully, if a female celebrity’s face gets scratched up, it would not just be a little issue of kids scuffling.
Jiang Lai was holding Wang Xuan’er’s hand, his expression a bit impatient.
"How about listening to your son say a few more words?"
"He’s been beaten like that; what else is there to say?"
Jiang Lai glanced at the somewhat uneasy Dan Dan and asked.
"Dan Dan, tell the truth, why did you hit Yangyang?"
"He...he glared at me first, and tried to push me."
"Yangyang, did you push him first?"
Yangyang thought for a moment and then retorted.
"He said I’m not the real Ultraman! He pushed me too!"
"So, did you hear that? Your son hit mine before my son did, and what did you do? You hit before I did. Do you know what I’m going to do next?"
Wang Xuan’er was stunned for a moment, watching Jiang Lai slowly raise his hand, instinctively covering her face with her hand.
"How dare you!"
Jiang Lai smiled, and in the next second, his face turned expressionless as he lowered his raised hand. Wang Xuan’er screamed and closed her eyes, but just as the heat could be felt on her cheek, Jiang Lai stopped.
Wang Xuan’er stared blankly at Jiang Lai, as though shocked, her face turning a bit pale.
Jiang Lai was too strong, she couldn’t break free, nor could she beat him in an argument or a fight. If she really took action, she might indeed be beaten with no ability to resist.
"What... what do you want to do?"
"Of course, I dare to hit you. In society, anyone dares to slap you behind your back. The difference is some people slap you in the face openly, while others slap your parents in the face behind your back. Today, I’m not hitting you, not because I respect you, but because I don’t want my son to think hitting people resolves all problems.
I also don’t want you to lose face in front of your son, got it?"
Wang Xuan’er’s eyes turned red. Dan Dan quickly ran over and hugged her.
"Don’t hit my mom. I admit it was me who hit Yangyang first. I didn’t dare say it earlier because I was afraid of being scolded. Yangyang, I’m sorry, don’t let your mom hit my mom."
Mother and son hugged each other and cried. Jiang Lai took a deep breath, withdrawing the slap he was about to throw.
Ah, being a mother isn’t easy. You still have to set a good example for your kids.
"Yangyang, come here. Dan Dan apologized, how about you? Shouldn’t you apologize for hitting him like that?"
Yangyang obediently walked over to Dan Dan and directly handed over the Ultraman Transformation Device clutched in his hand.
"I’m sorry, here, you can play with it for a while. I won’t hit anyone again next time."
Dan Dan took the Transformation Device amidst his tears and sniffs, and the two kids, who had just been fighting fiercely, made up with a simple apology and a transformation device.
As for Wang Xuan’er, she glared silently at Jiang Lai before finally turning and leaving with Dan Dan.
