Mr. Gu, stop chasing me! Miss Jiang has become a movie queen!

It is easy to feel sleepy after eating. Jiang Ning had slept on the crew, so she was not sleepy, but Gu Yuan was not. He forced himself to stay awake and drove back.

They originally wanted to find a designated driver, but after waiting for a long time, no one took the order, so they had to drive back by themselves.

The car was parked casually in front of the hotel. Jiang Ning asked the hotel staff to park the car, and she and Gu Yuan went back to the hotel suite to sleep.

Jiang Ning was surprised to find that the door was not locked, but then he thought, after all, it was in a hotel, so there shouldn't be any big problem.

Gu Yuan pushed the door open and saw a familiar person sitting on the sofa.

It’s Gu Yuan’s mother here again.

Gu Yuan asked Jiang Ning to go back to the bedroom to rest first, while he stayed to talk to his mother. Jiang Ning went back obediently. This move indeed reduced a lot of unnecessary conflicts.

"How did you find this place? There are so many houses for you to live in, why do you have to live here?"

After Jiang Ning left, Gu Yuan questioned his mother. His mother was not one to be easily talked to either. She spoke very quickly and fought back.

"I wanted to ask you guys, why did you come back so late? Where did you go?"

Gu Yuan defended himself: "We just went out for a meal, you don't have to be so harsh."

Seeing that her son dared to disobey her, Gu Yuan's mother spoke even more fiercely: "What do you mean I am being harsh? My son came back late, shouldn't I be concerned about him?"

Seeing his mother's righteous look, Gu Yuan was angry but helpless.

"I've already told you that I don't accept her. Didn't I introduce that so-and-so's daughter to you before? Why didn't you listen to me?"

Gu Yuan's mother seemed to be giving an ultimatum. She threw the teacup onto the table, spilling the tea all over the table. The cup then rolled to the ground and broke into pieces.

"Whether you accept it or not has nothing to do with me. I'm not asking you to live with her in the end. If you continue to be so unreasonable, we really have nothing to say. But don't worry, I won't give you less than a penny of what you are supposed to give."

Gu Yuan went back to the bedroom in a huff, and Jiang Ning was sitting on the bed. He heard everything that had just happened.

"Gu Yuan..."

Jiang Ning spoke first. Gu Yuan walked up to Jiang Ning and asked gently and concernedly, "Did you hear everything?"

"Um……"

Jiang Ning didn't know what to say. She had tried her best, but some things could never be changed, such as her original family and all the bad consequences brought by it.

No matter how hard Jiang Ning tried, he couldn't overcome the huge prejudice in his mother's heart.

Gu Yuan squatted down so that his eyes could be level with Jiang Ning's. He held Jiang Ning's hand in his own to make her feel safe.

"You've heard it, so just remember that I'm always on your side. No matter how many obstacles there are, I'll face them with you, okay?"

Gu Yuan spoke sincerely, with a slightly tentative look in his eyes. He was helping Jiang Ning rebuild his confidence from the perspective of a subordinate.

Jiang Ning nodded to show his approval, which invisibly gave Gu Yuan great spiritual strength.

With the support of his lover, he would be more confident in doing anything, just like Gu Yuan. He had a secret in his heart, waiting for the right time to tell Jiang Ning.

It was already very late at night, but some people in the crew had not left yet. Jiang Ning left early today because Gu Yuan came to pick her up, and the director didn't want to keep her waiting, but the others stayed to shoot the night scene.

The night scene is more difficult to shoot than the day scene, and the requirements are more stringent, with high demands on light and sound.

Fortunately, Li Yiming has strong organizational skills and he arranged everyone in an orderly manner, so the filming proceeded in an orderly manner.

We didn't stop until Li Yiming was satisfied with the photos, which made up for what we missed during the day.

Li Xi was fiddling with her cell phone in Li Yiming's director's lounge. She really didn't know what to do, and it was better to have less trouble than more, so she chose not to disturb the people outside, nor to show her presence in front of Li Yiming.

The crew finished work, and the main team put the cameras and other valuable equipment needed for filming into the house. Li Yiming also came in, ready to change his clothes and leave.

Li Xi saw him coming in and hurried over to greet him.

"Brother, are you guys done with work? I almost fell asleep waiting for you. Let's go home quickly. Mom is still waiting for us at home."

But Li Yiming just continued to change his clothes and replied without turning his head: "Oh."

The atmosphere was a bit awkward, but fortunately there were not many people in the lounge, so Li Xi continued to try to talk to him.

"Brother, what do you like to eat? I'll ask Auntie to prepare it in advance."

But the result was the same as before. Li Yiming still ignored her and only said: "All right."

"Ah... then... okay then."

Li Xi was frustrated and looked a little ugly. Li Yiming expected that she would have such an expression, but he just wanted to confirm it again. Sure enough, she fell into the trap.

An extended nanny car stopped directly at the door downstairs. Li Yiming got in the car first and sat at the innermost part. He put on a hat and a mask, looking like he didn't want to talk to anyone.

Li Xi got into the car right after him, and the two had no other communication along the way.

The atmosphere in the car remained awkward until we got home.

His mother and aunt prepared a table full of food, but Li Yiming refused to give his mother a favor and walked straight past the dining table and went to his room on the third floor.

Li Yiming's mother was obviously unhappy, and Li Xi took advantage of the opportunity to say sarcastic words in his mother's ear, and his words were full of dissatisfaction with his brother.

His mother's temper became even more irritable. She glared at the direction he left, then suppressed her emotions and said to Li Xi, "Forget it, forget about him. Let's eat our food."

Li Xi sat obediently at the dining table, waiting for Li Yiming's mother to serve her some food. Soon her bowl was piled high like a small mountain, and her mother kept adding more food to Li Xi's bowl.

"That's enough, that's enough, thank you, Mom. You eat too."

Li Xi actually enjoyed the feeling of being pampered. She wished that everyone's attention was on her alone.

His mother's hands showed no sign of stopping.

"Eat more. Only when you are full can you have the energy to film. This is a physically demanding job. Your brother is so ignorant. Don't be like him in the future."

"Look at what you said, my brother is not that kind of person. Maybe he is just in a bad mood today, so he doesn't want to eat. I saw an actress on the set today who relied on her strong background to provoke him. My brother was so angry that he didn't even drink water and couldn't continue filming."

His mother quickly took the bait and hated the actress that Li Xi mentioned. She also forgot who had said bad things about her son in the first place and blamed everything on an unrelated person.

Li Xi was still in the mood to watch the fun, she hoped that the fire would grow bigger and bigger, burning away all the previous traces of her.
