My Billionaire Husband Claimed Me His Precious Chapter 1058 - 968: Attitude

"What I mean is, I hope to know the background of the role in advance, rather than just being told to report to the set with a phone call. I haven’t even read the script, how can I know if this role is suitable for me."

"Do you believe you still possess the right to select scripts at this juncture? Had I not intervened to suppress your scandals, you would have been expelled from the entertainment industry already. You have engaged in numerous self-defeating actions. Even if you intend to drag others down, first consider your own standing. Do you truly believe I cannot elevate another individual in your stead?"

The words were sharp, yet each one pierced Huang Shan profoundly. The more she contemplated, the more predicament she found herself in. Her aspiration to carve out some possibilities for herself was met with mockery from Li Li.

"Am I truly so insignificant in your estimation? You won't even grant me the liberty to choose scripts now. Do you also perceive me as obsolete?"

Li Li observed Huang Shan's emotional display, yet no significant change stirred within him. He rather suspected she was fabricating excuses. Thus, he articulated, "If you wish to prove you are not outdated, then demonstrate your capabilities. A truly competent actor imbues any role with intentionality. Observe those who emerged concurrently with you; how many are as fastidious as you are?"

"Li Li... I, I simply..."

"Cease speaking. I do not wish to hear such sentiments from you again in the future."

Li Li's tone, laden with irritation, left Huang Shan feeling deeply vexed. She harbored more words, but the recollection of Li Li's dismissive glare stifled her.

"I have other engagements to attend to; you should depart for now."

Li Li cast a cursory glance at Huang Shan, and upon witnessing her reluctant preparation to leave, he promptly averted his gaze.

"It appears Su Lan was correct; I am indeed not brimming with that particular… quality."

Huang Shan was taken aback to recall Su Lan. It seemed there was no suitable confidant to whom she could unburden her frustrations. While contemplating this, she realized she had overlooked something.

"Su Lan had mentioned that Qin Miaomiao is actively preparing a new drama and requested that I keep abreast of its progress. Had it not been for Li Li's harsh words just now, I would not have remembered to inform him."

Internally debating whether to return and apprise Li Li, she eventually concluded after considerable thought that there was no necessity to do so. Perhaps her words would simply be disregarded. Thus, feeling dejected, Huang Shan contacted Mo Wenwan.

"You actually find the time to summon me, don't you? Weren't you always aligned closely with Li Li?"

"I harbor no animosity towards you; there is no reason for your sarcastic remarks."

Mo Wenwan scrutinized Huang Shan. Despite being unaware of Huang Shan's true intentions, her words conveyed a sense of certainty, as if there was indeed significant news. Consequently, she narrowed her eyes and stated, "What is it? I am rather occupied."

"I possess some credible intelligence to impart, and I trust you will treat it with the seriousness it deserves."

Huang Shan's gaze intensified, and she looked intently into Mo Wenwan's eyes, inquiring, "Qin Miaomiao is on the verge of commencing preparations for a new drama, and it is anticipated to be a resounding success. I hope you will give this matter due consideration."

"You imply that I should monitor Qin Miaomiao's every action; why do you not convey this information to Li Li?"

Mo Wenwan's eyes studied Huang Shan intently, her gaze becoming contemplative. She had just received a call from Qin Miaomiao herself and was scheduled to meet tomorrow. Unexpectedly, on this very day, she was being tasked with observing Qin Miaomiao’s activities—a curious coincidence indeed.
