Tangling with the Western Commander

Chapter 328: Chapter 325 Chapter 328: Chapter 325 The man surnamed Lu looked at his empty hands and felt rather awkward indeed.

Upon hearing these words and looking at Wen Xian in the tea room’s private chamber, he suddenly froze.

It was because standing next to Wen Xian was a woman dressed in a qipao.

She appeared to be very close to Wen Xian especially since just now–if he hadn’t misheard–she had called Wen Xian… “daughter”?

And Wen Xian had called her… “Mom”?

This woman, she, she had clearly come with her uncle and their group.

The man surnamed Lu’s eyelids suddenly twitched violently, and a very bad feeling sprang up within him.

Whose wife was that?

But soon, he dismissed the idea. No, no, that couldn’t be possible.

Wen Xian’s father was a gambler and drunk, as well as a violent man.

He had also heard that she had taken a lover in Qinghai, claiming to be some district’s Captain, supposedly, the Captain.

Just a few thousand yuan a month, clearly a poor devil, and the person was still in Qinghai – how could she possibly be connected to anyone from here.

So, that “Mom”, could he have misheard!?

At this moment, he feebly smiled and said, “No, no, it’s nothing, we were just discussing a movie, talking about whether it could pass the censorship or not.”

And with that, he seemed to want to brag somewhat, lowering his head and scratching his eyebrow, feigning a sigh, he remarked,
“It’s difficult for films to pass censorship nowadays, the reviews are strict up above, and my workload has increased quite a bit, I need to scrutinize carefully.”

Meaning he was a person with significant authority.

However, as soon as his words fell, Wen Xian suddenly sneered,
“Isn’t it necessary to scrutinize thoroughly!? Mr. Lu has explained the process to me quite clearly and distinctly, even wanted to book a hotel and discuss it carefully with me. He said if I explained it to him clearly, in his delight, it might just pass.”

–Damn!

As these words were spoken, both the corridor and the tea room fell suddenly silent!

Everyone was not a fool, the implications of those words were clear to all.

Madam Lu immediately widened her eyes, a hint of indignation appearing on her normally elegant and gentle face.

Mr. Lu’s slight smile at the corners of his mouth also gradually disappeared, his body subtly exuding a sharp aura of authority.

“Ha, ha ha, Wen Xian, the great star, sure knows how to joke. We can be careless with food, but words must not be spoken carelessly. I am conscientious and diligent–”
“Mr. Lu, in that case, has our film passed or not?”

Director Li Xun astutely asked, taking advantage of the moment.

Although they were somewhat taken aback by the group suddenly appearing at the door and the woman next to Wen Xian,
clearly, Wen Xian’s background was not that simple.

Or to put it another way, the identity of that man Wen Xian was involved with in Qinghai was definitely not simple!

Outside the door, anyone who could make a famous old actor from the Beijing Community follow them must be an extraordinary person.

They had vaguely figured out what kind of person it might be.

But as soon as he finished speaking, the man surnamed Lu’s face became somewhat ugly and then pretentiously troubled, he said, “This is not something I can decide on my own, it depends on those above–”
“Enough! Stop using that excuse! It’s nauseating to hear!”

Then, Wen Xian bluntly expressed her indignation to Madam Lu, “Mom, I was just arguing with him earlier, this person–”
