Rebirth: King to Superstar

Chapter 112 - Reaction

"What was the call about? It seemed like she didn't even give you a chance to greet her. What was she shouting on the other side for you to make that face? Did she do something abrupt again? I swear that child is getting out of hand once again." San Min asked him as he stared at her blankly. 

Joon-won didn't know how to feel at all. The mad little girl was at it again and this time she was demanding too much. She asked him to pack his things and get on the first train to somewhere he didn't even know and on top of that, she also said something about getting a role. 

He turned towards San Min and said, "She called to tell me to pack my bag for a week and get on a train early in the morning for Jade Mountains." And then looked at the phone as he heard a notification. It was from Hea-Jung. She sent him the train ticket, and he noticed it was at 5:30. 

"There is the train ticket she booked for me. She didn't give me a chance to even deny it. She switched off her phone." Joon-won was a bit frustrated with the girl. Just when he thought she wasn't that unruly she did something again.

"That girl is being completely unreasonable again. She has been like this since childhood and I thought she would change after she started her career as an actor. Seems like she is still the same. So what is the reason she wants you at Jade Mountains? Isn't that where their current shoot is at?" San Min rubbed her forehead while sighing at how unreasonable Hea-Jung has always been. 

Joon-won took a deep breath to relax his nerves a little and said, "She said something about a role in the movie she is doing. She said she will tell me the rest of the details after I arrive there. She also said something about getting her salary on me."

San Min hummed and replied, "She got you a role in the movie? And what is this about betting salaries now? That girl went against the director in the first movie? Oh god! Well since she was able to go that far for a role you should at least consider it. Once call Do Hwan and tell him the situation, he will know what to do."

Joon-won sighed at how troublesome Hea-Jung was and called Do Hwan. Do Hwan picked up the phone and briefly explained to him the situation. 

"She did what now? She called you and told you she has a role? Why didn't she call me for this before you? This little brat is really going out of control. I need to tell her mother about this. And she also had a bet? Against the director of all people? Why is she being so dumb about stuff all of a sudden? This girl would be the death of me. Alright, you go home and wait for my call. I'll call her assistant and ask about the details." Joon-won thanked him before he said to San Min, who was looking at him. 

"He said he will call her assistant and ask about the details. For now, he asked me to go back home and wait for his call." 

"Alright then go back home now. Oh Kar Jung also came, I'll go with him to the party then, the others would be waiting for us there." She patted his back and walked towards the car waiting for them. 

Kar Jung looked out the window and shouted, "Why isn't he coming?" 

San Min got inside and replied, "That brat Hea-Jung created problems again. She called and told him to get on the train for Jade Mountains tomorrow morning because she got him a role in the movie she is acting in." 

Kar Jung raised an eyebrow and said, "She did what now? Well that girl has always been like that. Kid, you should discipline her too." He shouted out of the car towards Joon-won. Joon-won just waved his hands and walked off towards the bus stand. 

Seeing Joon-won walk off, San Min turned towards Kar Jung and asked, "You think that giy can discipline that rowdy girl?" 

Kar Jung just smiled and replied, "If anyone it's him." And drove off.

It didn't take long for Joon-won to reach home as he went right into the washroom to get fresh. Wiping his face with the tovel he comes out and hears his phone ring. He picks up the phone as it was Do Hwan. 

"Joon-won, you should go to the Jade Mountains tomorrow. That girl would get into trouble if you don't. I got all the details from her assistant just now and it seems like one of the actors suddenly called in sick when he was supposed to be there tomorrow and the crew can't delay the shoot anymore. So she suggested you to that role." 

Joon-won sighed hearing this and asked, "How is the role?" 

"The role is fine. It's a small role where you might appear only 2-3 times in the movie, that's all. It's perfect for what you are hoping for. Since she already arranged it, just go there and show your talents to make everyone feel good about you filling in." 

Joon-won nodded and continued to ask, "What is the role then? She didn't even tell me that." 

"You can ask her assistant about the role when she comes to pick you up tomorrow morning. Just know that they might ask you to act tomorrow night itself, so you won't have much time. You'll have all the details tomorrow morning, so everything will be ok. Her assistant told me that the scene tomorrow is a small one which doesn't need much preparation. Pack clothes for a week and you will be fine. Do you want me to send someone to drive you to the station tomorrow morning?" 

Joon-won thanked him but said he would be ok and cut the call. He walked into his room and started to pack his clothes and essentials.
