"But, you can't deny that you're an impulsive person. If my useless grandson does something else bad to you, you're going to bring up old matters and make him pay for it all at once, aren't you?" Grandfather Fan laughed. "Young woman, a senior person like me doesn't normally make appearances to deal with a young person like you. This is very embarrassing for me."
"But, as a grandfather that only has one grandson, if I don't step out to take control of the situation, he will eventually destroy himself."
"In that case, what do you want?," Jennie asked. "How do you want me to guarantee you?"
"Haven't you been filming a sci-fi film lately? How about this, I'll personally invest in your film and become an investor. I'm sure your post-production will benefit from more money. That way, our interests will be connected; if you benefit, then I benefit, if you make a loss, then I make a loss. I will feel a lot better knowing that," Grandfather Fan suggested a solution.
But, after Jennie heard this, she couldn't help but laugh.
"Old man, are you trying to tell a joke?"
"I'm being serious."
"No, you're definitely joking. Firstly, let's not talk about whether Superstar Media is lacking this money. Even if I have to give up on the film, I would never let someone that's connected to the underworld get involved in my film," Jennie said. "This is my bottom line."
After hearing this, the old man was a little startled.
He always believed that actors had no integrity, just like how prostitutes had no sincere emotions. But, when it came to Jennie, she seemed to hate and shame people in the underworld more than the former two.
"I run legitimate businesses."
"But, the foundation is still made up of a pile of bones."
The two looked into each other's eyes, neither of them wanting to back down. It was obvious that Grandfather Fan was trying control his temper. After all, the person sitting opposite him was a woman and she was also pregnant. No matter how despicable he was, he would never lay a hand on the weak.
"You sure have guts...Does this mean you want to be destroyed together?" Grandfather Fan asked as he stared at Jennie. "I don't understand. My investment into your film is not a disadvantageous thing..."
"My film will always remain pure. I don't want anything dirty to get involved. Otherwise, I won't do the late Qiao Sen justice," Jennie replied. "Old man, rather than wasting so much time on me, why don't you keep an eye on your grandson and stop him from appearing in front of me instead?"
"I can't guarantee other things, but as long as he doesn't provoke me, I promise I won't say a thing."
This was perhaps Jennie's biggest compromise.
Actually, Jennie could tell that the old man meant no harm. He was simply here to make a deal.
But, there was no way that she could agree to Grandfather Fan's suggestion.
Grandfather Fan took a deep breath. He had never met such a stubborn woman. But, he was impressed by her bold and tough attitude. After all, women like her were hard to come by.
So, he decided not to make things difficult for her.
"I hope you can remember what you've said today."
"I always keep my promises..."
But, during this time, President Fan ended up leaving work early after hearing from a staff member that Jennie was meeting with his grandfather and quickly found where they were.
