A Slap To The Face

"Director Cheng's call…" The manager's cell phone started ringing abruptly. He glanced down at the screen before back up at Mu Xing. "What should I do now?"

"What you should do now? Answer the phone of course!" Mu Xing's gaze was mocking. "Tell him that my schedule's way too packed."

"But, Li Yu's also in the cast." The manager found it odd that Mu Xing was the only one who knew about this. Considering how important Li Yu was, he should have been aware about this from the very start. "I didn't receive news of him leaving the cast."

"They're fools, I ain't one," replied Mu Xing in a whisper. "Not a lot of people know about this. I was informed about this by an important person that I met not long ago. Anyhow, just wait around and you'll see that they won't even make it past their project's starting ceremony."

The manager went silent upon hearing that. What Mu Xing said was convincing enough that he took it as the truth.
