In this environment, Anning and Huayun never lent out actors to directors.
Their relationship was as hostile as fire and water.
Fang Liucheng wanted her to star in a Huayun production; that was impossible.
Unless she terminated her contract with Anning.
"Nuwan, do you want to take on this role This is an opportunity for you. If you wish to take it, there will be ways." Fang Liucheng said.
Nuwan smiled faintly, as if unconcerned about the matter at hand, "What are you saying To terminate my contract with Anning I can't afford the breach of contract fee."
"I can help!"
"Brother Liucheng, I love my company. Anning is one of China's best film and television companies; I have a great agent who has helped me progress smoothly so far. 'Beauty' indeed is an excellent opportunity for me, but that doesn't mean I won’t get better opportunities at Anning. Perhaps I might land an even better role. That would be Sister Xiaojing’s worry to handle. As someone just starting out, I am already very satisfied with my current achievements and there's no need for me to rush things. I'm still young; everything can proceed at a steady pace. If I were to fall out with my agency over 'Beauty,' abandon Sister Xiaojing, and turn my back on those who have nurtured me—such as Cai Xiaojing and Ye Feimo—I couldn't do it. If Anning agrees to lend an actor for the role, then maybe I'll consider it; otherwise, thank you for your kindness but 'Beauty' would be better off with another actor from Huayun’s roster who can take on this part."
Nuwan was not a person who forgot her roots. She had been cultivated by Cai Xiaojing and Ye Feimo. For her sake, Cai Xiaojing had invested much effort into nurturing Nuwan; she could never abandon Anning.
Perhaps to succeed one shouldn't be overly concerned about such emotional matters, but Nuwan was different. She couldn’t bear to be indifferent.
She was a grateful person and would not use others as stepping stones for her success.
This kind of thing she despised doing.
Fang Liucheng gazed deeply at Nuwan, suddenly wanting to ask her whether she could never give up Ye Feimo or Anning. He had a premonition that the answer wouldn't be pleasant to hear.
Fang Liucheng didn't ask her further.
"I will tell Sister Xiaojing about this matter when I go back, and she'll inform you of any updates," said Ruan Wenwan. "She's in charge of everything for me now, and I believe that she truly means well by it."
Fang Liucheng didn't want to press her further either. He nodded, indicating that he understood the situation.
After their meal, they walked out of the restaurant together. A car was parked beside the hot spring resort, but Fang Liucheng remained silent throughout the ride. He wanted to talk about their relationship with Ruan Wenwan, yet he feared her rejection and thus never brought it up.
"Nan Nan, is there really no chance for us at all" Fang Liucheng finally asked. He was not a man who hesitated; he acknowledged that he had always been too confident regarding his feelings for Ruan Wenwan, thinking of her as someone who would never forget the person she loved.
However, with Ye Feimo now in the picture, his confidence began to waver.
The newspaper rumors about Ruan Wenwan and Lin Ning were just fake news—Ruan Wenwan wouldn't have any connection with Lin Ning.
What he feared most was Ye Feimo.
"Brother Liucheng, I don’t want to think about this issue for now. I’m still young, and my career is just beginning; romantic relationships are not something I’m considering at the moment. So, I apologize," Ruan Wenwan said tactfully. She didn't know if she could accept Fang Liucheng again.
She was deeply wary of love now and had no desire to discuss it, even though she knew that Fang Liucheng might truly care for her; a part of her still held reservations about the matter, especially with Ye Feimo...
Ruan Wenwan’s eyes widened in alarm. Oh no, Ye Feimo
She had planned to meet him outside the broadcasting studio today but ended up not showing up.
In a panic, she checked her watch and inwardly cursed at herself for being late; it was already past eleven o'clock. She hurriedly searched through her bag for her phone, only to remember that it was with Cai Xiaojing.
Ruan Wenwan cursed herself in frustration.
"Nuannuan, what's wrong"
"It's nothing, I forgot something very important. Brother Liucheng, could you take me home" Nuwan said. Fang Liucheng held her shoulder and said, "Nuannuan, I'll take you back, but first tell me how long do I have to wait for you"
Nuwan was stunned; under the lamplight, Fang Liucheng's face seemed to be enveloped in a beam of light, as if time had returned to their most beautiful days. Nuwan felt her heart stir, but suddenly Ye Feimo's face appeared before her eyes, and her heartbeat almost stopped.
She was smart yet at this moment she didn't know how to talk to Fang Liucheng.
Fang Liucheng saw that she was really struggling; his gaze darkened. He held her close and planted a kiss on her cheek. Nuwan was even more stunned. Fang Liucheng took advantage of the situation, brushing his warm lips against hers. When he saw she didn't resist, he was about to deepen the kiss when Nuwan suddenly came back to her senses, turned her head, and Fang Liucheng's kiss landed on her cheek instead. Nuwan felt anxious and lost.
"Alright, I won't force you, Nuannuan, I'll wait for you," said Fang Liucheng in a gentlemanly manner as he drove her back to the Mingcheng Apartment.
He was smart enough not to ask anything; when he dropped her off at the apartment building, Nuwan hurriedly tried to leave but was pulled back by Fang Liucheng for a goodnight kiss. She casually waved him away and ran into the building.
Ye Feimo...
This was truly infuriating. Look how forgetful she was; Ye Feimo would definitely be furious, extremely so.
Hastily going up to the 44th floor, it was dark inside and he wasn't home
She switched on the lights but found no one there. Nuwan secretly grumbled as she searched the entire 44th floor without finding any sign of Ye Feimo.
Suddenly unsure, she ascended to the 45th floor via the changing room staircase.
The 45th floor was also empty and dark. Nuwan didn't know how she felt but it made her uncomfortable; she went back down just as a phone call came in. She answered: "Dear, you're finally back! Did you see General Ye"
If she had remembered her appointment with Ye Feimo, she wouldn't have broken the promise.
"You still dare to say so. He went to pick you up today, and as soon as you and Fang Liucheng left, Mr. Ye arrived," Cai Xiaojing murmured, "Try calling him."
"He probably doesn't have anything important going on. It's just a meal; it can be eaten at any time," Warm said, also feeling curious about why Ye Feimo suddenly wanted to have dinner with her.
Usually, he wouldn't make such appointments.
Cai Xiaojing cursed, "Are you an idiot Today is Mr. Ye's birthday."
Warm: "..."
Warm was completely stunned; why didn't anyone tell her that it was Ye Feimo's birthday today
Suddenly she recalled Ye Feimo's words, saying anything before twelve o'clock would be fine. Wasn't he talking about his birthday Besides birthdays, who else would say such a thing Warm couldn't help but hit herself on the head; it was truly despicable of her.
She had been too careless; did Ye Feimo specially arrange to have dinner with her to celebrate his birthday
But what had she done
Guilt gnawed at her heart like a snake.
"I didn't know," Warm said softly.
Cai Xiaojing replied, "I also forgot. I just realized today was Mr. Ye's birthday when Lady Ye asked where you two were."
Warm's hands and feet went cold as she felt an emptiness in her mind; vaguely aware that she had missed something important and done a stupid thing.Xueru knew that applying ice wouldn't be effective, but it could reduce the warmth of the pain.
