"Take your stuff and get out of my house!"

Gu Yuan looked at the birthday scene that Jiang Ning had set up in his home, and a nameless fire surged in his heart.

He didn't like others making his house a mess, or rather, he didn't like Jiang Ning, so he didn't like everything she did.

Jiang Ning stopped what he was doing, picked up the ribbons and laces on the ground that he hadn't used yet, and said to Gu Yuan:

"Gu Yuan, this is the last time I'm here."

A trace of subtle disappointment flashed across Jiang Ning's face, but when he saw her leaving, Gu Yuan did not make any move to keep her.

He even threatened: "The further you go, the better."

Gu Yuan left without looking back, and his assistant helped him tidy up the documents on his desk.

Jiang Ning walked downstairs and left resolutely. He did not even look back at this lavish villa before leaving, as if he had made some kind of decision.

She never appeared in front of Gu Yuan again for the next whole year.

In the luxurious office on the top floor, Gu Yuan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He had a tall figure and the light from the setting sun fell on him.

"Is there any news about Jiang Ning?"

Gu Yuan held a glass of red wine in his hand, looking down at the river view in front of him, with the entire city scenery in his sight.

The assistant stood behind Gu Yuan, bowed his head and nodded as he reported the situation to him.

"Ms. Jiang went to the crew for an interview. According to our information, Miss Jiang has been successfully selected as the leading actress and will be joining the crew to film soon."

"She went to film?"

Gu Yuan seemed to have heard something incredible. He paused in shaking the red wine in his hand, and her face flashed before his eyes.

The assistant replied respectfully, "Yes, Miss Jiang is currently filming in Liangcheng. President, do you have any other instructions?"

Gu Yuan turned around and sat on the sofa. He put down his wine glass, took out his cell phone and started fiddling with it. Even his assistant could see that he just wanted to find something to do so that he wouldn't look so awkward.

The assistant repeated the question again, and Gu Yuan replied:

"You go out first, and let me know if there's anything else. Oh, and tell my captain to get the plane ready. I have to go to the set for a field trip tomorrow."

"Okay, President, where are you going?"

Gu Yuan: "Liangcheng."

The next morning, before daybreak, Gu Yuan's plane had already landed steadily at Liangcheng Airport.

It was chilly in late autumn, and Liangcheng was even colder. As soon as Gu Yuan got off the plane, he shivered in the cold wind.

A nanny car came to pick them up at the airport. In the car, Su Ming, the head of the Liangcheng branch, was talking to Gu Yuan about the business indicators for the next quarter.

Su Ming: "Mr. Gu, please take a look. This is our current business direction and sales. We have modified our investment direction according to the opinions of the headquarters."

The assistant took the folder from Su Ming, opened it and placed it in front of Gu Yuan.

Su Ming: "The current financial situation is very impressive, and we will continue to work hard."

Gu Yuan nodded in affirmation, his eyes lingering on the report for just a moment before glancing out the window, his mind completely elsewhere.

Su Ming flattered, "Of course it is. This is the TV series adapted from the online novel we invested in the most recently. The expected revenue is around eight figures."

"Okay, I get it. I'll go inspect it this afternoon. You guys should behave well."

Gu Yuan leaned his head on the pillow, looking out the window. He had a lot on his mind, but he only showed indifference.

Su Ming: "Okay, I'll arrange the itinerary for you right away."

Gu Yuan drove to the filming location and saw Jiang Ning there. He wanted to walk over and ask her how she was doing recently, but she got into the car. Then he caught a glimpse of a group of investors from the branch company following behind her.

Gu Yuan: "Don't follow me, I'll just take a look around."

"it is good."

Without being disturbed by others, Gu Yuan found Jiang Ning's RV alone.

"Boom boom boom——"

Looking at the door, Gu Yuan hesitated for a moment, but still decided to knock on it. He didn't want to miss it again.

"Who is it?"

Jiang Ning's voice came from inside.

"..."Gu Yuan didn't say anything.

When Jiang Ning opened the door, he saw Gu Yuan standing outside with red eyes. In just a few seconds, Gu Yuan thought of too many possibilities.

"Why are you here? Stop standing outside, or the paparazzi will take pictures of you and start gossiping about me."

Jiang Ning looked nervous and quickly pulled Gu Yuan into the car. Gu Yuan strode into the car and kissed her without saying a word.

Jiang Ning pushed him hard, but he held her down. She bit him, and Gu Yuan let go in pain. The smell of blood spread in his mouth.

"What are you doing! I'll call the police if you do that again!"

Gu Yuan casually picked up a piece of paper and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, explaining: "I just wanted to come and see you. This drama is invested by Gu Group."

Jiang Ning: "Of course I know, but what does it matter? I will do what I should do."

"I want to help you."

When Gu Yuan said this, tears were in his eyes, as if he was the one who had been wronged and could not get the love he wanted.

"Thank you. Your not coming would be the greatest help to me."

Jiang Ning walked to the innermost part and closed the curtain. She didn't really want to see him now. They were clearly in the same room, but they had to talk through the curtain.

Gu Yuan crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it into the trash can, then asked her, "We haven't seen each other for so long, don't you have anything to say to me?"

Jiang Ning was changing clothes inside and didn't take his words to heart. She said:

"No. I have a scene this afternoon. You'd better be careful when you go out. There are too many paparazzi taking pictures around here. I don't want others to say that I got to where I am today because of you."

Gu Yuan: “Yeah.”

Jiang Ning changed into his costume and left without even looking at him when he passed by, leaving Gu Yuan alone in the RV.

He wisely chose a time when there were few people around and hid his face under the shadow of his cap. He looked in the mirror and made sure that he could not be seen before leaving. He returned along the same route and happened to see Jiang Ning filming.

Jiang Ning was hanging on a wire and jumped down from a high place on the city wall.

"You are just a woman, how dare you fight against my demon clan! Their fate will be yours!"

"I swear to avenge my entire clan! Give me your life!"

Jiang Ning drew his sword with extraordinary vigor and fought with the villain in the air, but unfortunately he was hit and fell into the water.

Seeing Jiang Ning fall into the water, Gu Yuan felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

"What kind of plot is this?"

Gu Yuan asked the staff beside him.

"Oh, you mean this? The next step is that the heroine will be taken away by the villain and nothing will be left of her."

"What a crap plot. Isn't she the heroine? Why is her role gone so soon?"

"Yes, but this is a rebirth drama. The heroine will be reborn later, but she won't be the one to play the role after she's reborn."

Gu Yuan's face was obviously unhappy, and he asked the producer to come out and see him by name.

The producer rushed over after hearing the news. He was very impatient at first, but when he saw that the person who came was Gu Yuan, he immediately put on a flattering face.

"The heroine will be replaced after her rebirth?"

Gu Yuan was intimidating without even getting angry, and his whole body exuded an aura of oppression that could not be disobeyed.

"Yes Yes."

"So, who did you replace?"

"Mr. Gu, that person is the daughter of the investor, so we have to change it."

"What investor? My Gu Group is the largest investor. You are doing this behind the back of the headquarters, right?"

Gu Yuan regained his usual arrogance at this moment, scaring everyone present into not being able to speak: "Switch it back, don't make me say it a second time."

"But...this..."

"Why hesitate? Ask the investor to tell me everything. If I see anything, you won't have to continue filming this drama."

Gu Yuan rubbed his brows and walked away with his hands behind his back.

With the director's "click", everyone prepared to call it a day. Jiang Ning was pulled out of the water. After soaking in cold water for a long time, Jiang Ning felt numb all over.

The crew assistant covered her with a blanket and helped her back to the dressing room.

The high-powered air conditioner in the dressing room quickly dried her clothes. Jiang Ning packed up her things and prepared to wrap up the filming.

"Don't... don't go, Jiang Ning. You still have your part to play later."

The assistant director caught up with her, breathless.

Jiang Ning asked in confusion: "Ah? Didn't they change actors for the following scenes?"

The director panted as he answered Jiang Ning: "No, no, that girl said she couldn't come, so you'll still be in charge of the rest! Don't pack up, come and have dinner with us later."

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Director."

Jiang Ning put his things down and sat back down silently.

After returning to the hotel, Jiang Ning thought more and more that something was wrong. Su Wanwan obviously wanted this role very much, so why did she suddenly let it go?

"It must be him."

Thinking about this, Jiang Ning took out his cell phone from his bag and sent a text message to that number.

She has deleted everything related to him. The only thing she knows now is the number, and she doesn't know whether he has changed his number or not.

Jiang Ning typed a message on his phone, "Did you do this?"

Then he clicked send, and it actually showed that it was sent successfully. Thinking about how things went wrong when they met today, and how he still took advantage of him in the end, Jiang Ning always felt a little uncomfortable.

Jiang Ning lay on the big bed in the hotel. Fatigue invaded her brain. She was very sleepy but couldn't fall asleep. She couldn't help thinking about all kinds of things.
