[Anyone who didn't know better would think my mother had died; she looks so pale.]

[So what if your boyfriend doesn't protect you? That's nothing! You might even have to wash his baby's diapers someday. Buy one, get two free—what a lucrative deal!]

Yuan Yangyang admired Ban Lang's expression, his face clearly showing schadenfreude.

Wu Anran squatted down and earnestly advised Qiu Man.

"If you still have any questions, I'll explain it to you privately. Let them all go back; the production schedule can't be delayed."

Qiu Man looked at Wu Anran for a long time, unsure whether she believed him or not, and only managed to squeeze out a soft "hmm" from her throat, which was her way of agreeing.

Wu Anran finally breathed a sigh of relief and felt at ease.

Director Liu gave the group a deep look, then waved his hand, signaling them to go about their own business.

After everyone had mostly dispersed, Director Liu warned Wu Anran.

"As long as you're on set, focus on filming and stop thinking about other things."

Wu Anran nodded and bowed, repeatedly agreeing.

Director Liu could tell at a glance that the other party hadn't taken his words to heart at all. He looked at Qiu Man, who was keeping her head down and not saying a word, sighed, and turned away helplessly.

[Damn, this is so frustrating. Has Qiu Man been fooled by that scumbag again? Those two are clearly having an affair, doesn't she see that?]

Yuan Yangyang was inwardly screaming, but Yuan Si'an grabbed her arm, preventing her from making any rash moves.

Then, with Yuan Yangyang by his side, they caught up with Director Liu.

"What's wrong, Si'an? Is something the matter?" Director Liu asked.

Yuan Si'an got straight to the point, "I'm here to remind Director Liu that you should find another actress for Wu Anran's scenes as soon as possible."

"You mean..." Director Liu probed.

Yuan Si'an: "Director Liu should have realized that the relationship between those two is not clean, and this matter cannot be kept secret. It's only a matter of time before it comes out."

"Director Liu should think carefully about whether it's better to bury his head in the sand or cut his losses in time."

Director Liu sighed, his tone helpless, "I know what to do now. Thank you, Si'an. Don't worry, I won't let your investment go to waste."

After Director Liu finished speaking, he immediately ordered people to keep quiet. They wanted to keep today's events a secret for as long as possible.

Once he finds someone to replace Wu Anran, he'll kick this rotten apple out immediately; he can't afford to ruin this good pot of porridge.

"That's right, how come I didn't think of that? Fifth Brother, you're so smart!" Yuan Yangyang then remembered the investment.

She is now an investor in the production team, so if any actors are involved in negative news, it will inevitably affect the production team.

"Wu Anran is such a scumbag! He's not only a terrible person, but he also dragged the production crew down with him. He deserves to die!" Yuan Yangyang said through gritted teeth.

"Don't be angry," Yuan Si'an comforted her.

"Now that the matter has been exposed, it may not be a bad thing."

"Otherwise, once filming is over and Wu Anran's affair is exposed, it may be difficult for the show to be released. At that time, the losses will be huge, and everything will be wasted."

"Replacing actors at the last minute will result in significant losses, but compared to not being able to release the film, it's nothing."

Yuan Yangyang felt a little better, but only a little.

[What a pity, that jerk got away with it again, so infuriating!]

[Dressed up like a proper celebrity, and calling himself one? Does someone like that deserve to be in the spotlight?]

This kind of scum deserves to be exposed to the light of day. Rotten eggs and rotten vegetables are what he gets.

It's just so pitiful for Qiu Man and the baby in her belly, sigh.

Yuan Si'an seemed to be deep in thought, then took out his phone, typed a sentence, and sent it out.

The message was: Investigate Wu Anran and Ban Lang, and send solid evidence against them to Qiu Man.

As for what the other party will do, that's not something he should worry about.

He could tell that Qiu Man was somewhat cowardly, and that if she kept burying her head in the sand for too long, she would start to believe it.

No one can help a weak person; only the person who can help themselves can help the person who is weak.

After talking with Yuan Si'an, Director Liu is now preoccupied with replacing the second male lead and has lost all interest in filming.

With a wave of his hand, he simply ordered the crew to stop filming for half a day and resume tomorrow. Then, without looking back, he was the first to leave to find the actors.

Yuan Si'an and Yuan Yangyang also turned back and took a car home.

Lan family.

Lan Sitong had been pestering Lan's mother for a long time, and Lan's mother was getting a headache from all the pestering, so she said helplessly.

“Good girl, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, but that project was chosen by your brother and approved by your dad.”

"The crew has been filming for over a month now, and nothing has gone wrong. We can't just withdraw our investment because of a single sentence from you!"

Lan Sitong had something to say about this, and she immediately retorted, "This isn't considered a mistake? Mom, you don't know, your daughter is being bullied to death on set."

“Our Lan family is the investor, but Yuan Niaoniao and her fifth brother, together with the director, ganged up to bully me. They clearly don’t respect our family at all.”

"You didn't see it, there were so many of them, but they bullied me alone, waaaaah."

Lan Sitong lay in her mother's arms and wailed.

Lan's mother didn't take it seriously at first, but after hearing Lan Sitong's words, she frowned and became angry.

"Is there such a thing?"

"It's true."

Lan's mother said, "How about this, I'll go talk to your brother and tell him to withdraw his investment. Anyone who dares to bully you will not be allowed to have an easy time."

"Thank you, Mom."

"You spoiled brat."

The Yuan family study.

Mr. Yuan held his phone, listening intently to the report from the other end.

"Yuan Niaoniao later left the film crew by herself by taxi, but she did not go back to the Yuan family, but went back to her parents' house."

"Not long after Yuan Niaoniao went back, Niu Yingjun came out."

Mr. Yuan's lips twitched, and he couldn't help but interrupt, "Who is Niu Yingjun?"

The person opposite said, "Oh, I forgot to tell you, Niu Yingjun is Yuan Niaoniao's brother and Niu Hanshan's son."

Before Yuan's father could speak, the person opposite him continued, "That's not the point. The point is that Niu Yingjun bought hemp rope, a knife, and gloves at the hardware store. It doesn't seem like a good thing."

"Also, my people accidentally discovered that Niu Yingjun has been hanging around a row of bungalows these past few days. Your nanny, Wang Ma, who was just fired, lives there."

"Should we send someone to keep an eye on it?"

Mr. Yuan's face immediately darkened.

He couldn't help but think of the five million that Wang Ma had given him; it was the money to compensate for the flowerpots.

It was Wang Ma who threatened Yuan Niaoniao and got the money from her.

Could it be that he's so angry about this that he's planning to cause trouble for Wang Ma?

But the vase was broken on Yuan Niaoniao's orders, so shouldn't Wang Ma make her pay for it?

He's already turned a blind eye to her bullying Yuan Yangyang, isn't that enough?

What is she going to do now?

"Send someone to keep an eye on them," Mr. Yuan said coldly, his tone chilling like shards of ice.

[Is Yuan Niaoniao too ashamed to come back?]

As soon as he hung up the phone, he heard the heartfelt words: Yuan's father knew that Yuan Yangyang and the others had returned.

He immediately went out and stood at the top of the stairs, calling down, "You two, come to the study."

As soon as Yuan Yangyang and Yuan Si'an entered the study, they heard Yuan's father say...

"There's something I need to discuss with you."
