276: Eli appears

Pan Han nodded at her, but he did not intend to hide it, so he said: "A few days ago, I felt that the place I'm living in now is a bit small, so I secretly went out and rented a large house. I just finished tidying it up today and haven't had time to tell you yet. The landlord is Jinlian."

"You actually went to rent a house?" Wang Doudou looked incredulous. She seemed to have forgotten that Pan Han was still living in a shared apartment.

"Yes, the place I live in now is too small. Xiaoli, you can move in today." Since he had been exposed, he might as well invite her over to live openly. At worst, the current shared apartment could just be used specifically for time travel; whatever is convenient.

When Pan Han said this, it made Yan Xiaoli feel embarrassed. In front of outsiders, having her boss ask her to move in didn't sound good if word got out.

"Oh! Sister Xiaoli, so you and the boss are roommates! You two are really fated!" Seeing the relationship between the two, Jinlian exclaimed instantly.

"Oh, don't listen to the boss's nonsense!" Yan Xiaoli said, blushing.

"No, no, no, this is great. With President Pan, Sister Xiaoli's career will definitely take off! I have to tag along with you too." The more Jinlian spoke, the more excited she became.

"Alright, alright, there are others who haven't been introduced yet!" Yan Xiaoli pinched Jinlian lightly, then brought Pan Han to the table.

"Hello everyone, this is our company's boss, the investor for this drama, and also my personal boss, Pan Han! Let's welcome him." Yan Xiaoli introduced him grandly to everyone and then led the applause.

The others nodded to acknowledge him and followed suit with applause.

Pan Han greeted everyone warmly and took out the gifts, one for each person.

"Where's mine?" Seeing that she was the only one without a gift, Wang Doudou said angrily, her little mouth pursed high.

"What gift do you want? You aren't part of the production crew." Pan Han was amused by her appearance and laughed.

"I've been running around for this matter, how can I not count! I don't care, I want one."

Seeing her like this, everyone covered their mouths and snickered, and Yan Xiaoli generously handed her own gift to Wang Doudou.

"I don't want yours. I want him to buy me one!" After saying that, Wang Doudou snuck a glance at Pan Han, unable to hide the smile on her face.

Pan Han rolled his eyes, then said generously: "Alright, I'll give you a special gift. You pay for the meal today. This is an opportunity I don't give to just anyone!"

"Damn! You trash." Hearing this, Wang Doudou rolled her eyes in anger.

The others laughed out loud, and the atmosphere at the scene became much more harmonious.

"Let me tell you all, ever since I met your boss Pan, I've spent at least a few million! I really believed your nonsense!" Wang Doudou pulled on Pan Han's arm and recounted her tragic history to everyone.

At this moment, a woman whose figure, appearance, and temperament were a notch above Yan Xiaoli's walked gracefully in front of Pan Han.

"Hello Boss, I am the second female lead of this drama, Ellie."

During the previous massacre at the Dragon Country Base, Pan Han hadn't seen Ellie, nor had he found any information on her, so he didn't recognize her.

Seeing her take the initiative to introduce herself, he smiled and shook her hand.

"Miss Ellie, you are truly beautiful. I wonder which dramas you've acted in before?" Pan Han searched his brain for a long time but couldn't remember seeing any dramas Ellie had acted in.

"Miss Ellie hasn't acted in any dramas before, she has only shot some commercials. Moreover, she joined the crew with her own funding, saying she was moved by our script." Yan Xiaoli said.

"Oh? Joining with funding? Miss Ellie actually thinks so highly of this drama? I'm flattered."

"Yes, President Pan. I've read the script carefully and had in-depth discussions with Ms. Yan. I highly approve of this drama. It just so happens that I have some spare cash on hand, so here I am, bringing both myself and the money. But let's be clear, when the box office hits big, I'm going to want a share of the profits." Ellie looked at Pan Han, her mind filled with hatred, but her eyes and tone were controlled with extreme calmness, even appearing a bit playful.

Pan Han had no idea what she was thinking inside, he just felt that what Ellie said and what she was thinking were not quite consistent.

He could sense the subtle difference.

Ever since he evolved to the intermediate level, most mental activities and micro-expressions could not be hidden from him.

Now, he was only a step away from being able to perform soul-searching.

However, he didn't pay much attention to it; after all, most people are not sincere when they meet for the first time. Especially in the entertainment industry, everyone has ulterior motives and is like a human spirit.

"No problem, no problem! Since Miss Ellie thinks so highly of us, profit sharing is only natural." Pan Han didn't care about that little bit of money; he would just let Yan Xiaoli handle the profit-sharing ratio.

Next, Yan Xiaoli introduced the third female lead, Jinlian, as well as the director, cinematographer, makeup artist, and others.

After the introductions were finished, everyone took their seats. Pan Han sat in the main seat, with Wang Doudou and Yan Xiaoli sitting on either side of him.

Pan Han brought out a case of Moutai and asked the waiter to pour drinks for everyone.

Various dishes were brought up. Pan Han took the first bite, and then everyone else started eating.

After several rounds of drinks, the atmosphere began to liven up, especially with Ellie, who kept toasting Pan Han.

Ellie was different from the others; her main task was to get close to Pan Han, ideally to plant herself by his side.

As the top assassin of the Dragon Country Base, she had received various kinds of training since childhood and had even had her body modified.

When it came to drinking, she had never lost.

She originally planned to take advantage of Pan Han being drunk to extract some information.

But she didn't expect Pan Han to be such a heavy drinker; he had already downed a catty of white liquor without even blushing.

Yan Xiaoli naturally saw all of this, but didn't take it to heart.

When she used to work in the film and television industry, accompanying bosses and directors to drink was about the same routine.

They were all seasoned veterans; no one should laugh at anyone else.

As they drank, it turned into the production crew members surrounding and toasting Pan Han.

Even Jinlian, who looked thin, was surprisingly able to drink a lot.

Pan Han didn't refuse anyone; as long as everyone was happy, he didn't mind.

Anyway, it wouldn't be a problem for him to drink several cases by himself.

After two more rounds, the others couldn't handle it anymore, and even Yan Xiaoli and Wang Doudou went to the side to play on their phones.

Only Pan Han and Ellie were left at the table.

Ellie was slightly flushed, having already consumed a full catty and a half of white liquor, but Pan Han was still completely unaffected.

"How strange! Why is this guy so strong in everything!" Accompanied by a hiccup, Ellie's complexion improved slightly, and she started thinking wildly.

Pan Han still felt nothing; after reaching the intermediate level, alcohol no longer had any effect on him.

"Sigh, I guess I've lost one of life's great pleasures!" Pan Han lamented to himself. Everything has its gains and losses; there is no situation where everything is beneficial.

"President Pan, I wonder, after dinner, do you have time to sit at my teahouse?" Ellie whispered in Pan Han's ear.

Her voice was very low, and no one else heard it.

Hearing this, Pan Han smiled slightly and said: "I'm sorry, Miss Ellie, I have things to do this afternoon. Let's do it another day."

"That works too!" Ellie's eyes sparkled with a smile, and she lightly licked her lips.
