Chapter 299 - 299 Lucky Star
299 Lucky Star
“Second Brother, are you alright?” The next morning, Le Wan saw the dark circles under Second Brother’s eyes and asked him with concern.
After she told him about the script yesterday, her second brother, who was very nervous about the project, would definitely send someone to check it out. Looking at him now, she was afraid that he had found out something last night, which caused him to be unable to sleep well the entire night.
Second Brother Le frowned and gulped down a mouthful of strong coffee. He placed the cup on the table and patted Le Wan’s head. After Le Wan glared at him, he finally revealed his first smile of the morning.
“Baby, I’m really grateful to you for this. You’re my Lucky Star.”
If it wasn’t for Le Wan discovering the situation in advance, he would have invested so much money in it. If something went wrong with the script, he would be in deep trouble, thinking about the money he took from his big brother.
Hearing his words, Le Wan shook her head smugly.
“I’m not only your Lucky Star but also the lucky Star of my family.”
Her words made Papa Le, who was at the side, nod his head repeatedly.
“Exactly. When the baby was born, I signed an important contract. All these years, the family has been smooth sailing, and our baby’s contributions can’t go unnoticed.”
“But it’s not that exaggerated.” Le Wan blushed. She was just complimenting herself when she saw Second Brother Le avoiding a big pit.
However, since they had already said so much, Le Wan took the opportunity to make a request to Second Brother Le.
“Since you said that I’m a Lucky Star, do you want me to participate in the audition?”
“Sure,” Second Brother Le agreed. “You’ll be in the main seat when we’re choosing the cast. Help me choose the male and female leads who can do well in the box office.”
“Leave it to me,” said Le Wan, patting her chest. It was hard to say if it would be a good box office sale, but the first thing she would do when the time came was to kick that jinx out of the shortlist.
Papa Le praised his daughter again before he had the time to show concern for his second son.
“Is the situation serious on your side?”
Second Brother Le stuffed a fried egg into his mouth as if he was taking medicine. After eating it for so many years, he still didn’t like fried eggs. It was a pity that in their family, Mama Le was the most important cook. So even if he didn’t like it, he had to eat it.
Frowning, he swallowed the egg and said,
“Fortunately, Baby discovered the problem in advance and brought it to my knowledge. The film has just been established, so it’s not a big problem.”
It was only because he really liked the script. If there were really problems that caused the filming to be unable to be completed, he would really be upset and would probably remember it for the rest of his life. As long as he thought of this, he would be particularly irritable.
After finishing the rest of the coffee, Second Brother Le took a napkin and wiped his mouth.
“But I have something to deal with, so I have to leave first.”
He stood up and prepared to pack his things. Big Brother Le, who had been silent all this while, finally said,
“Since you want to do a good job, don’t be so impatient. Be more patient.”
Second Brother Le, who had his back to him, stopped in his tracks and waved his hand.
“I know.”
Previously, when he had asked his brother to invest money, he had talked about how good the script was and how amazing it was. As long as it was filmed, it would definitely leave its name in history.
In the end, the first problem was the script. It was like a big slap on his face, making his face burn.
Because of this, Second Brother Le didn’t even dare to look at his big brother the entire morning.
As the saying goes, “everything is difficult in the beginning, the middle, and the end”. Big Brother Le didn’t think that this was a big deal. As the biggest investor, he didn’t even think of asking about it.
In the end, when he saw his silly brother avoiding his gaze the entire morning, he knew that Second Brother Le was starting to be stubborn again, so he gave him a light reprimand.
Sure enough, after he said that, Second Brother Le’s tensed shoulders relaxed a little. Big Brother Le shook his head. This brother of his was good in every way except for one thing. He had a slightly stubborn personality, and he would occasionally need someone to help him be stubborn.
When Zhai Jing saw the interaction between the two of them, he had a thoughtful expression on his face.
However, when he lowered his head, he saw that Le Wan was secretly moving a piece of ham to his plate while he was drinking the orange juice.
He turned around and saw Le Wan blinking her big eyes innocently.
“What’s wrong?”
Mama Le didn’t like to see her children being picky with food, nor did she like to see their leftovers. So, with Big Brother Le taking the lead, the four siblings didn’t dare to show any obvious tendency to be picky with food and waste food at the table.
