  At the president’s office, Hengfeng.

  Cui Jingyang was reading the materials sent by the secretary.

  They were about Wen Di and all her life, even including that she was the Gu family’s step-daughter, which was unknown to outsiders.

  He had read this data before.

  Because the beauty he was after hated this person very much, he added to the fire just to win a smile from the beauty.

  However……

  Somehow, seeing her that day didn’t feel right to him.

  “Boss, this Miss Wen……” The secretary wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.

  Cui Jingyang threw the materials at the secretary. The papers flew about but the secretary dared not move.

  “I told you to block her last time. Why does she still have roles to play?”


  The secretary was dripping with cold sweat. “Boss, she signed onto Fenghua a long time ago. I contacted the crew, but Director He didn’t want to replace her……”


  “The money is not enough?”


  “No, it’s not. It’s just Director He kind of brought Wen Di into showbiz in the first place. Half of the credit should go to Director He for her being able to get popular.”


  The secretary explained in a low voice.

  Director He……

  Cui Jingyang ran through the life of Director He in his mind. Director He, who came from a wealthy family, fell in love with film when he was young.

  In the circle, Director He could be said to be a maverick.

  The fact that he used Wen Di, who was a newcomer with no acting experience in the beginning, was enough to illustrate that.

  Cui Jingyang’s face darkened. “Whatever you do, I don’t want to see her face on the screen!”


  The secretary: “.……”


  “Do you hear me?”


  The secretary hurriedly answered, “Yes.”
……

  After the part involving Fenghua film and television base was over, the crew left the city and went to shoot exterior scenes.

  Shooting outdoor scenes was laborious, especially when the actors needed to fly hither and thither.

  And in a Xianxia setting, it was inevitable to fly here and there.

  Ming Shu really wanted to tell the director that she could fly!

  But of course, if she said something like that, she would probably get caught and dissected.

  “Little Dizi, hang in there. After we finish this part tomorrow, the rest will be easy.” Director He patted her shoulder caringly and encouraged her.

  Ming Shu nibbled on drumsticks. “That’s exactly what you said last time.”


  Director He was a little embarrassed. “Kid, when did you learn to talk back?”


  Before Ming Shu spoke, Director He quickly changed the subject. “Let’s talk about the scene we’re going to shoot tomorrow. You need to jump down from there. Don’t be afraid, we have a protection underneath……”


  Ming Shu nodded and didn’t take it too seriously.

  This scene was about the break between the male and female protagonist, which was quite an important part.

  “Okay, you can go back and rest first.”


  “Yes, director.”


  Ming Shu had long wanted to get off work, but had to give Director He face.

  Ming Shu asked a staff member to give her a ride down the mountain on his electromobile.

  The staff was a little speechless.

  They were now accustomed to this movie queen’s fresh and refined behaviors.

  She didn’t have an assistant, nor a car.

  She would just come and go freely with her snacks.

  About those rumors on the Internet, after spending this period of time together, they all thought it was just nonsense……

  How would a movie queen who couldn’t walk when seeing snacks have time to climb on other people’s beds and be the other woman?

  If that was the case, it would definitely be because someone had used snacks for temptation.

  Back at the hotel at the foot of the mountain, Ming Shu rested for a while, then washed up and went down to have food.

  This place was a popular location for filming, and there were other crews living in the hotel.

  Ming Shu walked by without any cover.

  “Is that Wen Di?”


  “It’s her……”


  “There Are many rumors about her on the Internet……”


  In addition to these voices, there were also young fans like visitors……

  “Young brother.”


  Ming Shu stood at the table, smiling at the man sitting in the corner.

  Liang Che: “.……”


  “Can I sit here?”


  Ming Shu asked, but she had already sat down on the same side as him.

  Liang Che: “.……”


  Liang Che put down the book in his hand. “Why are you here?”


  They hadn’t seen each other since she left suddenly last time.

  After that, he heard that the Fenghua crew went to shoot outdoor scenes.

  “Yih, I thought you were following me.”


  Liang Che: “.……”


  Although he did not follow her here, he indeed had exchanged tasks with the studio’s people and came here after hearing that Fenghua came to shoot at this place.

  Of course, Liang Che wouldn’t tell Ming Shu that.

  “Have I become a has-been? I don’t even have a paparazzo now?”


  As she spoke, Ming Shu took out her phone and checked her post from yesterday. The number of reposts and comments seemed to comfort her.

  “No, I haven’t.”


  “.……”

  Her anti-fans were really unlucky.

  Ming Shu then put down her phone and looked at Liang Che. “Chut, you paparazzi are so short-sighted.”


  Liang Che was silent.

  He didn’t seem to provoke her!

  “Mister, here’s your steak.” The waitress served the food.

  Seeing Ming Shu sitting here, she was a little surprised. She knew who she was……

  But, didn’t she sit over there just now?

  The waitress looked at Liang Che and her eyes lit up.

  But she didn’t seem to have any memory of him……

  The waitress hurriedly held back her flying thoughts. “Miss Wen, may I get you anything?”


  Ming Shu looked at Liang Che. “Young brother, will you treat me?”


  The girl’s eyes seemed to glow. When she looked over, one would want to indulge her at a glance.

  But Liang Che almost choked on water.

  He looked away in a panic. “Just order what you want.”


  Ming Shu said to the waitress smilingly, “The same as his.”


  “Sure.”


  The waitress left. Ming Shu held her chin and looked at him. Liang Che faced the steak, his hands holding the knife and fork clenched and released, and finally he pushed the plate over.

  “Go ahead.”


  “Young brother, you are so kind.” Ming Shu accepted the kindness happily.

  “.……”


  Liang Che looked to the hall. There were many people looking at them.

  He stood up. “I’ll use the washroom.”


  “Oh.” Ming Shu made way for him.

  When Liang Che came back, his eyes wandered between the opposite seat and Ming Shu. He said in a low voice, “You can sit on the inside.”


  “Why?” Ming Shu asked as she cut the steak.

  “I like sitting outside.” Liang Che’s voice was light. “Or I should sit on the opposite.”


  Ming Shu immediately moved to sit inside.

  Liang Che felt himself a little pretentious, but was somewhat emotional in his heart.

  The table Liang Che chose was originally in the corner. Now that Ming Shu sat inside, the outside view was almost completely blocked.

  “Haven’t you got an assistant?”


  Liang Che remembered she was still by herself and couldn’t help but ask.

  “Why do I need a person to limit me? No, I don’t.”


  In this world, the assistant was the biggest obstacle to her loving relationship with snacks!

  “You’re alone……”


  Liang Che murmured but didn’t finish the following sentence.

  He’d been asking too much.

  “What?”


  “Nothing.”


  Liang Che cut the steak with his head down. The knife scraped against the plate, making a tiny noise.
