After being reborn, I became a top-tier celebrity by resetting my game history.

Shu Yu looked at Li Yancheng, her eyes flickering: "Thank you..."

She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and the red marks left on her cheeks became even more noticeable.

As Zheng Ran left, he couldn't help but glance at Su Qi, who was drinking coffee in the rest area.

Su Qi turned her head slightly, only glancing at him out of the corner of her eye.

One hand rested lazily on the bar, the other swirled a coffee cup, and her long, fair legs were crossed, exuding charm.

Zheng Ran lowered his eyes, his expression filled with an indescribable sense of desolation.

Shen Chaohuai, Li Yancheng, and Shu Yu came out of the office, and Su Qi went up to them: "How are the discussions about the script and investment going?"

Shen Chaohuai raised his eyes and smiled smugly: "Yes, there's nothing I can't handle when I step in."

"From now on, the film script arrangement will proceed according to your ideas; I won't interfere." Shen Chaohuai casually poured a few cups of coffee and handed them to everyone, the silver ring on his middle finger gleaming.

Li Yancheng said, "It's strange, I originally wanted to threaten him by saying that his businesses had my father's help, but this kid knew that the Zheng family wouldn't dare to challenge him, so he directly invested at a higher price."

Shen Chaohuai paused for a moment: "I had something on him, unlike you, who can only rely on your father for everything."

Li Yancheng frowned: "No... Shen Chaohuai, what did I do to offend you? We were just united against a common enemy, and now you're turning your back on me?"

Shu Yu looked at Su Qi and couldn't help but tease, "Indeed, you didn't see how the two of them just worked together to ignite Zheng's gas."

Su Qi raised an eyebrow and deliberately said, "Oh, is that so? Being able to temporarily put aside personal grudges to deal with a common enemy is quite a skill."

Shen Chaohuai's face tightened, knowing that Su Qi was teasing him.

Shu Yu smiled meaningfully at the group, as if she had suddenly understood the relationship between the three of them.

It's quite interesting, at least much more interesting than being enemies.

……

After the script revisions were completed, the entire crew began filming. Following the film's opening ceremony, the actors presented the new script.

“This kind of persona is much better.” Li Yancheng looked at Su Qi smugly.

“And you, you don’t need to play the pregnant woman abandoned by a scumbag anymore,” he said to Shu Yu.

Shu Yu pursed her lips, lowered her eyes, and her gaze on his face gradually reddened.

I heard from others that the role Shu Yu played was personally revised by Li Yancheng.

This further increased Shu Yu's admiration for Li Yancheng.

It's less about admiration and more about...

During filming, Shu Yu and Li Yancheng were filming a scene together when Su Qi suddenly noticed that Shu Yu's gaze towards Li Yancheng was strange.

After filming the first half of the scene was finished, during lunch break, the assistant brought over boxed lunches, and Shu Yu helped distribute them.

Seeing that Li Yancheng and Su Qi's attitude towards Shu Yu had improved, everyone's attitude towards Shu Yu also improved a lot.

All the seats were taken, except for the one next to Li Yancheng, so Shu Yu had to sit next to him.

Su Qi looked up as if she could see health bars on Shu Yu and Li Yancheng.

[Data extraction in progress.]

[Please note that the NPC's affection level is currently increasing...]

Su Qi stared ahead. Shu Yu's attack on Li Yancheng's health bar had reached its peak, but Li Yancheng's health bar was still gray.

Ah, it seems like it's unrequited love...

Feifei couldn't help but complain.

"It would be strange if it wasn't unrequited love."

Su Qi looked down and heard Li Yancheng across from her say, "I like twice-cooked pork. Do you have any more?"

Shu Yu took a few pieces of meat from her box and handed them over: "I haven't eaten yet, you don't mind, do you?"

Li Yancheng was stunned for a moment, then stuffed a large ball of white rice into his mouth, then put a piece of pork belly in his mouth and grumbled, "I don't mind, I don't mind."

"Give me all the pork belly that you can't finish."

"I will help you eliminate them."

Everyone gave Li Yancheng a piece of meat and praised him for eating so cutely.

Li Yancheng turned his gaze to Su Qi: "What about you? Are you on a diet?"

His gaze, however, was fixed on the meat in Su Qi's lunchbox.

Su Qi didn't need to eat to maintain her vital signs, so she handed the unopened lunchbox to Li Yancheng: "Playing the male lead is tiring, so eat more."

Li Yancheng smiled at her and happily continued shoveling white rice from the box.

Seeing that Li Yancheng was more pleased with Su Qi, Shu Yu understood what was going on and put down her half-eaten lunchbox: "You guys continue eating, I'm going out for a bit."

Shu Yu went outside for some fresh air, took a deep breath, and sat down under a tree.

Wearing her costume, and not caring about the dirt on the ground, all she wanted to do was calm down.

A light rain suddenly began to fall from the sky. She instinctively reached out to catch it, and the drizzle landed on her hand, turning into a drop of dew.

She felt lost for a few seconds, until a layer of shadow covered her head and she could no longer catch the dew in her hands, before she suddenly realized that a man over two meters tall was standing in front of her.

Shen Chaohuai, holding an umbrella, asked in a calm tone, "Why are you here alone?"

It's perfectly normal for Shen Chaohuai, as an investor, to visit the film crew during lunch break.

Shu Yu wiped away her tears: "It's nothing, I just wanted to get some fresh air."

Shen Chaohuai said briefly, "The lunch break is short, so be mindful of the time."

"Ah."

After taking a few steps, Shen Chaohuai suddenly remembered that Shu Yu had only been off the operating table for a few days, and Su Qi hadn't made things difficult for her. He didn't need to embarrass her either.

"Take care of yourself, you can have more children."

Shu Yu suddenly chuckled self-deprecatingly: "Young Master Shen, you're saying this out of consideration for her, aren't you?"

"That's wonderful. A woman like her will have many admirers and many children in the future..."

Shen Chaohuai gripped the umbrella handle tightly, his Adam's apple bobbing, his face extremely somber: "Many people like..."

Shu Yu turned to look at him: "Young Master Shen, can't you see? Even outsiders can see that Li Yancheng treats her differently."

"I know I'm not as good as her, and I don't want to force it."

"Someone like Li Yancheng would never like a woman with such a bad reputation as me."

Shu Yu stood up. It was an unintentional remark, but she noticed that Shen Chaohuai's face had darkened and his bangs were covering his eyes.

Shen Chaohuai didn't say anything, but stared at the woman in the crew who was chatting and laughing with Li Yancheng, his palms almost scratching the umbrella handle.

He turned and left.

Shu Yu scratched her head and returned to the film set to tell Su Qi about Shen Chaohuai's visit and departure.

But Su Qi's attention wasn't on that at all; it was on the health bar above Shu Yu's head.

A few weeks later, the movie was released as scheduled, and its box office soared to the top of the charts for that period.

[Your current national popularity will receive a stat boost due to the film's excellent reviews.]

……

Su Qi found the system too noisy and simply turned off the light screen.

Just as I was about to close my eyes and rest, the phone rang again.

Su Qi frowned, and saw a name being erased from the screen.

That was the rival index ranking displayed by the system, representing the opponents Su Qi needed to overcome on his path to becoming a top star.

The name "Shu Yu" was missing from the top. Su Qi was taken aback. It was strange, because Li Yancheng's name was clearly on it. It shouldn't have disappeared.

Su Qi answered the phone, and Lynn put her hands on her hips, looking smug: "Heaven is helping my little Qi, I have some good news for you."

"Shu Yu paid He Miao a penalty for breach of contract and announced her retirement from the entertainment industry."
