OPEN YOUR MASK, PRINCESS!
Episode 78 THE REAL POWER
“Whose you?”
The man in question smiled kindly – if not want to be called a deadly smile – that makes the feathers of Bams stand. Although he looks very young, Bams admits the message his crew is rumored to be true, this man is not an ordinary person, there is a huge power hidden behind it.
“Include me Li Xiao Jun.” Xiao Jun offered a warm handshake that Bams quickly greeted.
“Li Xiao Jun? You... CEO of the famous company X? ah... what wind brought you here?” Bams invited Xiao Jun to sit on the sofa in his study.
“Sorry to interrupt your working time, my arrival for a cooperation offer.” Xiao Jun Kalem.
Bams smiled excitedly, it seemed like their first project had a positive impact on this client so he humbly offered further cooperation. “It is with great pleasure that we are open to further cooperation with you. Ehem... how did you feel about the previous project? Is there any input to be fixed in the future?”
Xiao Jun remained calm, he leaned leisurely on the sofa while folding his hands. “I am quite satisfied with the previous project and will ask for your help for our next product. But I came here to discuss cooperation outside of work. I want to make a special deal with you personally.”
Bams frowned, he pulled his hair that had been neatly pouched until it looked tangled. He could not guess the direction the young boss spoke before him.
Xiao Jun saw the confusion of his interlocutors, then he started to open the cards one by one. “I will be clear, you must know Weini's case has now entered the legal path. I just want transparency
you for the proof you have.”
Bams expression changed completely, this conversation turned uncomfortable again for him. He is not interested in discussing something that is not related to work, no matter who the interlocutor he faces. “Sorry, Sir. It's outside my realm. It is not my capacity to interfere in the affairs of the artist, let alone personal matters. If you have no other needs, I beg you to return to work.”
Bams stood up and was about to leave Xiao Jun who was still sitting quietly.
“Video circulating your edits right? What if it becomes evidence of your involvement with defamation cases, violation of the ITE Law and public lies?”
Xiao Jun's words managed to stop Bams' fresh footsteps from moving in an inch. Bams squeezed his hand, his emotions starting to ignite until he felt the need to hit someone in the face.
“So you threatened me!” Snapped Bams who directly attacked Xiao Jun by floating the raw bogem. Unfortunately the attack without the technique swiftly brushed aside Xiao Jun, with just one hand alone Xiao
Jun clutched the fist that failed to land then gripped it so firmly that Bams groaned in pain.
“Not a threat, rather giving an ultimatum. You should choose a strong and right side if you want to survive. If you choose wrong, it could be that you are also dragged destroyed.” Xiao Jun released his grip
but Bams continued to moan in pain, shaking his hand so sore.
“Lu care so much about Weini and his side? He's just a rookie artist, better to sacrifice one person than hundreds of people lose their jobs. You won't understand my dilemma! Try saying on the side
which one do you think has a power as strong as Anwar Gumilang?” Cecar Bams, he finally ignited to discuss the thing that he had avoided in a convoluted manner.
“I!” Xiao Jun emphasized firmly but he could read Bams' unbelieving mind.
“Bos, do not mean to underestimate you, but he has half the shares here which means this PH already arguably has him. While you have only been involved once in an advertising project, the comparison
too far boss.” Exclaimed Bams, he felt Xiao Jun's confidence was passing.
Xiao Jun contacted Lau, after their conversation was connected he immediately squeezed the loud speaker. “Uncle, how about Anwar Gumilang?”
Bams was flabbergasted to hear Xiao Jun summon the name of the big boss lightly and without any respect. He began to be interested in the conversation and put the ear well.
“It's done sir. He does not refuse to sell all of his shares in PH Multi Utama and hopes we receive an offer of cooperation with his company.” Lau explained loudly even via phone.
Bams lowered his head, hiding his sham vein that had underestimated the young boss before him. He did not know what to say especially after knowing Anwar Gumilang had sold the entire ownership
his stake in this PH to this boss.
“Anwar Gumilang only dare to put a 45% stake, now I will invest 85% stake for this company and will not let it collapse. So which side do you want to stand on?” Xiao Jun scaled
mat Bams with a question.
Bams hasn't made a sound, between shock and embarrassment. The young boss must have had such deep feelings for Weini that he dared to sacrifice so much for her. But he had already cheated and must have been dragged by the law with Metta.
“There is still hope to switch lanes. I won't complicate your position in the future, you can hold my words. All I need is your honesty and a full video back then.” Xiao Jun smiled, this time the smile looked warmly friendly until Bams was amazed and put his full trust in her. For the first time in his life, Bams proved with his own eyes what real power is.

Stevan flips through the script, his eyes are so tired of seeing the scenes of him and Lisa dominating in each episode. Although it must be professional about work, but Stevan personally is not suitable to work with
that artist. If there were a Weini.. ah! Stevan brushed his mind off. If Weini returned he was stuck with his feelings, he was not ready to compete like a pair of lovers with the fact that he had just broken his heart.
“Cih... lu eneg yeah ama your role that wholesale amu me? Be patient, I also eneg amu kok. Hihi...” Lisa sneers at Stevan who looks more passive since Weini was removed from the role.
The gesture was not considered by Stevan, he just lifted the buttocks from the chair he was sitting in and chose another seat that was far from Lisa's reach.
“Gue want to see your arrogance it hold until when! Once this sinet goes out of business, you still have what job again?” lisa's boyfriend who doesn't take it for granted.
Stevan pretended to be busy memorizing his dialogue. Seeing Lisa's obnoxious arrogance, it's better to be a victim of the feeling of working with Weini than to have to eat a heart every time he meets the evil woman. Tak
ignored again the noise of Lisa who berated him until the sound of Bams was heard in the studio, Stevan immediately looked up to find the source of the sound.
Instantly Stevan forgot to breathe when he saw who had come with Bams, what was Xiao Jun planning to do to enter a realm that was not his reach? Stevan began to move from his good position, he
must find an opportunity to talk to Xiao Jun.
Meanwhile, Lisa pecked with her mouth agape at the sight of Xiao Jun's good looks and charisma that seemed to emit light. “OMG, handsome!”
