The Side Character's Hidden Boss!

Chapter 359: Ji Yan

“That’s such a shame. Anyway, let’s dig in.” As soon as Li Min said that, Jin Chuan walked into the set with a box of fruit. When Li Min saw him, she walked towards him and smiled. “Brother Chuan, I know there’s a shop nearby that you like to frequent. Shall we go there for lunch?”

The staff members who held the afternoon snacks frowned immediately.?What is the meaning of this? She is the one who treats us but she can’t be seen eating with us?

“I’m sorry, Miss Li Min but I just had boxed lunch with the crew. I’m full already.”

“Fine then, I’ll just go with CEO Han.”

“Miss Li, are you sure it’s alright to leave the studio?” One of the staff members said worriedly.

“Who cares, the director is not here anyway.”

…

Eventually, the director came back with his face darkened. CEO Han and Li Min chuckled behind him. The crew finally got into action.

During the break, Mo Li called An Wan. Mo Li was about to have a fight scene and after Mo Li knew about An Wan’s background, she wanted to see if An Wan would be her martial art director even though the director had provided her with one. This was because the existing director was male and Mo Li would feel more comfortable working with a female.

To her surprise though, when Mo Li gave An Wan the martial art director’s name, An Wan gasped, “Oh, then you are in good hands. That is my senior brother disciple! If my father’s dojo is still running, he will be my dad’s successor. He is familiar with all sorts of weapons. He can teach you everything as long as you ask him.”

“Nice to meet you, my name is Ji Yan.” The man’s voice was gentle but for some reason, it caused Ah Ao to tense.

“Ji Yan, I’ll leave Li Li with you. Take care of her for me,” An Wan said through the phone.

Mo Li studied the man before her. The man had that ethereal presence about him. It was like he was not of this world. Even though Mo Li’s 3 brothers were all very handsome, none of them had this presence. Just looking at him, Mo Li could imagine the man in a robe of a cultivator, riding clouds, floating through the winds.

“Miss Mo Li, since you’re already in costume, we’ll see if you can manage the martial arts movement in it.” But once Ji Yan brossed Mo Li to the training room, he led her to the wooden chair and then passed her a cup of tea. Gloom crossed his eyes.

Mo Li felt like the man was looking through her at someone else but that should be the first time they had met. “Mr. Ji, is there something wrong?” Mo Li asked him directly.?Do I look like his ex-girlfriend or something?

“Just call me Ji Yan like Wan Wan does.” Ji Yan seemed like he had more to say but he didn’t say anything. He only stared at Mo Li and then apropos to nothing, he asked, “Have you ever loved someone you shouldn’t have? Should you pursue him or just give up?”

What??Hearing that, Mo Li and Ah Ao were confused.

In Ah Ao’s mind, the man had fallen in love with Mo Li at first sight!

Mo Li thought carefully about what Ji Yan said.?He has fallen for someone! However, based on the way he put it, that someone is not of the same station as he is.

Based on Mo Li’s observation, Ji Yan was someone who focused fully on martial arts so the person who could affect his mortal heart had to be a martial arts practitioner too.

Kang Zhi nodded. He too was filling in the blanks based on Ji Yan’s one question.?Perhaps the man has accidentally injured his crush’s father when he was practicing martial arts, isn’t that very common in wuxia novels and movies?

Or perhaps this Mr. Ji has fallen for the daughter of some evil organization! The eternal love story between the good forces and the evil forces! It’s right out of the plot of the Hero of Condor! No wonder Mr. Ji is in such a pickle!

Before Mo Li could say anything, Kang Zhi jumped in, “Brother Ji, it is hard for outsiders to comment on matters of love. Only those in the relationship can review it. Brother Ji, your situation now is very dangerous. If you make the move, her family might come after you and then the forces of Jiang Hu will be tipped over. Make sure that you won’t regret the decision you make.”

Mo Li looked at Kang Zhi and she felt the urge to smack the back of the man’s head.?The forces of Jiang Hu? What is really in that mind of his?

Ji Yan nodded but the gloom on his face didn’t clear up.

To break the awkward situation, Mo Li had Ji Yan help with her training. During the training, Ji Yan was very stern and he didn’t hold back. However, Mo Li noticed that Ji Yan kept staring at her face. It was just incredibly strange.
