Mr Fu, I Really Love You Chapter 964 - Who Would Believe?

Chapter 964: Who Would Believe?

“Sister Yan said that the director just discussed it with her, and he wants to expose the fact that the photo wildly circulating on the internet was taken of the two of us during filming. He wants to make use of our popularity as a married couple to heighten the profile of the movie. He’s asking if you’re agreeable!”

Actually, to put it frankly, he was trying to make use of the most popular couple currently—Lin Nuan and Fu Huai’an—to hype up the movie.

Who would believe that Fu Huai’an acted as a stunt double?

Moreover, he was the stunt double of a little-known actor. If there wasn’t clarification from an official source, others might treat it as a joke!

“You decide…” Fu Huai’an said without hesitation, with the air of going along with whatever his wife said.

Lin Nuan’s pet.i.te hand was held in Fu Huai’an’s, with his thumb grazing against the back of her hand.

Lin Nuan didn’t reply to Fang Yan instantly. She told Fang Yan that she would consider it carefully.

Cen residence.

The minute Lin Nuan entered, she saw that there was a dab of camouflage paint on Fu Huai’an’s jaw that wasn’t removed properly. However, before she could tell Fu Huai’an about it, Song Yao had come over and pulled Lin Nuan’s hand, saying to her, “I have something to say to you…”

“I’ll bring Tuan Tuan upstairs to change his clothes first!” Fu Huai’an lifted Tuan Tuan, who was by his side, off his feet, indicating to Lin Nuan that there was no need to hurry.

“What happened?”

Song Yao pulled Lin Nuan to the living room. Seeing that no one was around, she said, “I heard something…”

“Did you know this newbie director Yang Rui… is Chu Xun’s loyal fan?” Song Yao’s brows were furrowed.

“Ah?” Lin Nuan looked lost.

Lin Nuan truly had no idea…

“That shouldn’t be the case! If Yang Rui really is Chu Xun’s loyal fan, he wouldn’t have looked for me to shoot his movie!” Lin Nuan laughed. She and Chu Xun were described as suffering from a fatal incompatibility on the internet.

As a matter of fact, because of Fu Huai’an, Lin Nuan indeed wasn’t fond of Chu Xun.

“Moreover, even if he’s Chu Xun’s fan, during filming, he didn’t make things difficult for me!”

Song Yao didn’t know if she should say Lin Nuan was calm or stupid!

Fu Huai’an was the largest investor for their movie now. Did Yang Rui have the guts to make things difficult for Lin Nuan?

“Do you know about Chu Xun’s experiences?” Song Yao took out her phone and said as she looked up Chu Xun’s information. “I heard that the role of the reporter you’re acting in this movie is based on Chu Xun’s past experiences… and adapted by adding some things! Say, what is this director Yang Rui up to?”

Her search turned up results on Chu Xun in the search engine. Song Yao stared at the screen and read aloud to Lin Nuan, “The Iron Lady of the News Industry! Won the highest award in the news industry, the Pulitzer Prize… as well as the Ronald Reagan Media Award.”

“She was once a war reporter that was on the front-line of the Iraq War and the Libyan Civil War, exposing the cruel murders committed upon the innocents by the soldiers and the huge pain brought to the citizens by war! She also once infiltrated the Golden Triangle by herself and faced a battle of wits against the drug dealers to collect information, almost losing her life in the Golden Triangle. But the information she brought back was instrumental in taking down the criminal organization.”

Lin Nuan nodded. “I heard all of this the day Chu Xun became the president of Haicheng TV Station!”

“I’ve seen your script. In the end, the reporter you’re acting as… because of her infiltrating the terrorist network, wins the Pulitzer Prize! Yang Rui was the one who wrote this script! I feel that him asking you to act in this role was him setting a trap for you. He wants to make use of this movie… to let the audience trap you under Chu Xun forever, in the ident.i.ty of this reporter! Once this movie screens, you’re destined to be Chu Xun’s shadow forever!” Song Yao handed her phone to Lin Nuan. “Back then, when you received this script, didn’t you check on the director?”

Lin Nuan had never thought about such things. When it came to work matters, Lin Nuan trusted Fang Yan to handle everything. When using someone, don’t suspect them. Lin Nuan stood by this principle and listened to everything Fang Yan said out of trust.

“I’ll call Sister Yan to ask her about it later!” Lin Nuan felt that, regarding such matters, based on Fang Yan’s cautious style and capability, she should have found out about it before filming started. As to why she didn’t tell Lin Nuan about it, Lin Nuan felt that Fang Yan perhaps had her own reasons for doing so.

“Don’t do it later! Call her now!” Song Yao frowned. “If there’s really a problem, just find some excuse and quit acting in this movie, lest it brings you trouble in the future!”

Fang Yan knew that Lin Nuan usually didn’t question her arrangements, but she didn’t seem surprised by Lin Nuan’s call. Actually, Mu Taotao had asked Fang Yan about this secretly before.

“I know about this!” Fang Yan set down the work in her hands and explained to Lin Nuan, “I’ve spoken with this director called Yang Rui before. Back when he was writing the script, it was indeed based on Chu Xun’s past experiences. But he decided to ask you to act in it because he considered the fact that you experienced life-and-death situations in Iraq and had been rescued. There’s also the image you built up in this country, which makes you the most suitable candidate!”

Lin Nuan frowned.

“Previously, I asked Director Yang Rui if it wasn’t more suitable for him to ask Chu Xun. Yang Rui said that Chu Xun’s reputation in the country was smeared beyond recognition right now, and if he were to ask her to act in the movie, it would ruin the entire movie. He does like Chu Xun, but he loves his own movie more. After all, this movie is like his own child!”

“I was moved by Yang Rui’s sincerity! Moreover, before convincing you to take up this movie, I did a lot of research. Yang Rui’s reputation and character in the industry have exceedingly good reviews!” Fang Yan spoke calmly. “Later, I thought about it, and when this movie shows in theaters, even if no one exposes this matter, I’ll think of a way to expose it. Firstly, it’s to promote the movie. Secondly, I obtained some highly useful evidence at a dinner a month ago that will push you up to the altar to replace Chu Xun! This will absolutely not be a bad thing to you.”

Lin Nuan was confused. “I don’t quite understand what you’re saying!”

Fang Yan understood that Lin Nuan wasn’t distrustful of her…

“Back when you were abducted in Iraq at the Jiang family’s heavy machinery and equipment company by the terrorists, when you were rescued, you told a soldier that you learned something from the conversation between the terrorists on the way there. Do you remember? You told them that among your group, they were initially planning to retain the males to film a beheading video to terrorize the government and the world. As for the women and children, they planned to sell them on the black market. You even went to look for evidence with that soldier…”

Lin Nuan paused in surprise. She had never forgotten about what happened in Iraq. Even now, those memories were still vivid in her head…

Back when Lu Xiangsi was shot with a gun and lying in a pool of blood, the rest were taken into a car. During the four-hour car ride, Lin Nuan, who understood Arabic, learned from the terrorists’ conversation about their plans for them. It made her so nervous her scalp turned numb.

From their conversation, Lin Nuan could tell that they often engaged in such business dealings…
