After downing a glass of water, his stomach finally felt better. Jin Jing took out his phone and noticed Xu Jiaojiao’s message. When he read the last sentence, his phone slipped from his hand and fell to the floor.

Jin Jing, let’s break up.

Xu Jiaojiao had pondered for a long time and ultimately decided to break up with Jin Jing. Although her heart was filled with reluctance, certain things indeed required decisions—dragging it out further wouldn’t benefit anyone.

She looked at her own complexion, which appeared pale, and intentionally asked the makeup artist to apply more blush. Only after seeing a somewhat pleasing face did she confidently head towards the set.

Mo Wenwan drafted a cooperative project proposal, wanting to show it to Qin Miaomiao as soon as possible. The previously considered cooperation was now being scheduled, and if not for the monthly summary report she needed to write, she wouldn’t have delayed.

"Mo Wenwan, come to my office."

Just about to leave with the project proposal, Mo Wenwan was called by Li Li. She paused briefly and agreed, her gaze indifferent as she hesitantly walked into her own office, then quickly moved into Li Li’s office.

"President Li."

Li Li’s gaze carried a mischievous demeanor as he curiously observed Mo Wenwan before him. He used to consider her a smart woman, but now she seemed exceptionally shrewd. Unexpected ideas surfaced in his glance.

"Sit first, let’s talk sitting down."

Li Li’s gaze examined Mo Wenwan’s face, casting over her eyes and weighing heavily on his mood. He then continued, "What are your thoughts on President Shan’s investment in the new movie?"

"President Li has surely chosen a good script. Plus, those themes are very popular now, and I believe the box office will certainly be excellent."

Mo Wenwan thought that Li Li probably liked hearing flattering words, but saying only pleasant things wouldn’t alter Li Li’s thoughts, so she mentioned something else.

"However, when it comes to casting, I think many outstanding supporting roles should consider the company’s newly signed artists. But these are just my suggestions; everything depends on President Li."

Mo Wenwan’s advice simultaneously prompted Li Li to have some different ideas internally.

"I’ll give more thought to your concerns. I hope you will be the supervisor for the new movie."

"Me? President Li means for me to assume the role?"

Mo Wenwan looked at Li Li with disbelief; although they had been collaborating for a long time, Li Li never seemed to trust her enough to let her lead independently. But now.

"President Li, I think my experience is insufficient. Someone with more experience should handle the role of supervisor."

Mo Wenwan wasn’t being modest; she sincerely contemplated many things and perceived Li Li’s gaze as peculiar. Her heart knew better than anyone that Li Li might be merely testing her.

"I won’t waste your time further; get back to work."

As he spoke, Li Li’s gaze grew darker, scrutinizing the woman’s silhouette, a shadow spreading deep in his heart. He thought: On the surface, nothing seemed amiss; even if rumors were unfounded, they certainly noticed some unusual clues. Otherwise, they wouldn’t report trivial matters.

"Looks like I need to be more vigilant with Mo Wenwan. The power in her hands is growing, and it seems necessary to appropriately restrict her authority."

These thoughts lingered in Li Li’s mind, while Mo Wenwan was filled with apprehension. The more she reflected on Li Li’s earlier behaviors, the more she felt they were redundant. There was no need to consult her opinion or concern about other people’s thoughts. The contemplation left her slightly bewildered, prompting her to message Qin Miaomiao, informing her of her preparation to depart.
