Reborn to bury love, I can reach for the stars.
Chapter 340 Are you preparing red envelopes?
Although I already knew, I was still shocked to see it with my own eyes. Who would have thought that the old man telling fortunes in the park would be Huang Chen's maternal grandfather?
"Girl, don't you recognize me?" The old man walked forward with a smile, grabbed her hand and rubbed it, his tone revealing a hint of dissatisfaction.
Shi Wanmeng suddenly came to her senses and quickly replied, "How could that be? I'm just too surprised."
Hearing him say that, the old man nodded in satisfaction: "Didn't I tell you long ago that we are destined to be together?"
"Yes, yes, yes." Shi Wanmeng nodded repeatedly and said a few nice words to appease the old man.
"From now on, you'll call me Grandpa, just like Huang Chen does." After saying that, he looked straight at Shi Wanmeng with smiling eyes, his tone suggesting a suggestion, but it didn't seem like that was the case.
Shi Wanmeng turned to look at Huang Chen and saw that he was also looking at her expectantly. She simply nodded and said softly, "Grandpa."
"Good, good, good!" The old man grinned from ear to ear, then searched his pockets for a while but found nothing. He could only turn to his daughter and ask, "Have you prepared a red envelope?"
Lu Lan's decision to meet him today was impromptu, and she didn't expect things to progress so quickly. She changed her address as soon as they met, and her face flushed slightly, feeling a little embarrassed.
It was rare to see such an expression on his mother's face, so Huang Chen admired it for a while before speaking up to defuse the situation: "Grandpa, you're too fast. Go back and prepare well, and give me a big one next time."
The old man glared at Huang Chen, feigning anger, and said, "You brat, you're ordering me around now." But he had no choice but to give up and pulled Shi Wanmeng aside for a friendly chat.
When Su Muqing met Xie Yunting's father for the first time, she didn't know where to put her hands. The usually lively person now looked like she was about to become withdrawn.
Mu Xueying seemed to notice her nervousness, and happily stepped forward to take Su Muqing's hand, glaring at her husband: "Smile."
Upon hearing this, Xie Qingyun immediately forced a smile, but it was worse than not smiling at all, making the hairs on the back of Su Muqing's neck stand up again.
Shi Wanmeng and the old man were having a lively conversation. The old man was telling Huang Chen's funny stories from his childhood, and Shi Wanmeng was listening with great interest. Huang Chen was watching quietly from the side with a very gentle look in his eyes.
Suddenly, the old man changed the subject: "Wanmeng, when are you and Huang Chen planning to get married?"
Shi Wanmeng blushed instantly and stammered, unable to speak. Huang Chen smiled and chimed in, "Grandpa, you're too impatient. We're still young."
"All you ever say is there's no rush, humph!"
On the other side, encouraged by Aunt Mu, Su Muqing finally mustered up the courage to talk to Xie Yunting's father. She found that he was actually quite kind, unlike his serious appearance, and gradually relaxed.
The meal ended in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere. No matter how much the grandfather tried to persuade them to stay, Huang Chen and Xie Yunting sent them back early. The two of them had to leave for the film crew early the next morning, so they couldn't be late.
Once they were in the car, Shi Wanmeng and Su Muqing exchanged a glance before finally letting out a sigh of relief. What an exciting day!
When they returned to Yunxuan, Chi Yun and Xiao hope had already packed their luggage. Seeing them return, Chi Yun said with a smug look, "From this afternoon until now, you guys have basically dominated the top spots on the trending searches. If you didn't have to join a film crew tomorrow, I could arrange ten exclusive interviews for you."
Shi Wanmeng smiled helplessly: "You're really something, have mercy on me."
Su Muqing jokingly added, "It's a good thing we're joining the crew tomorrow, otherwise you would have really worn us out."
"Hmph, isn't this a refusal? If I didn't care about you, would I be giving you some phone interviews so you can't even rest on the way?"
"Okay, okay, I knew you were the best, Brother Chi."
The next day, just as dawn was breaking, the two were dragged out of bed, packed up, and sent to the film set. Due to the heavy rain last time, the original filming schedule could not proceed as planned, and this time they had to go to the mountain village again. However, having learned from their previous experience, they brought much more food and clothing this time.
Chi Yun had other work to do and couldn't stay with them on set this time. In addition to Xiao hope, she arranged for a male assistant to accompany them just in case: "This is Qi Ming, you can call him Xiao Qi."
Throughout the journey, Chi Yun was like a nagging mother, his mouth never stopping, constantly instructing the two of them on various precautions, from daily filming to how to deal with possible emergencies... He explained everything in great detail, afraid of missing any crucial information.
Shi Wanmeng and Su Muqing had originally planned to catch up on sleep and recharge on the way, but now they could only helplessly listen to Chi Yun's endless chatter. Their drowsiness was gradually dispelled, and their plan to rest was completely ruined.
The assistant who was following them was not spared either. After Chi Yun finished talking about the two of them, she immediately turned her attention to the assistant and continued to nag. Seeing the two of them looking like they had no way to express their suffering, Shi Wanmeng's mood suddenly brightened up again.
Upon arriving at the mountain village, staff members who knew they were coming were already waiting at the village entrance. Director Tan greeted them with a broad smile: "We've been waiting for you! Would you like to rest for a bit?"
Shi Wanmeng and Su Muqing quickly waved their hands: "No need, no need, we can film today. We are already prepared."
“Okay, okay,” Director Tan’s smile widened. “Alright, you can have lunch first, and we’ll officially start filming this afternoon.”
Entering the village, the familiar scenery filled them with emotion. However, before they could finish their makeup, the previously sunny weather turned gloomy again. Director Tan, worried about repeating the previous mistake, hurriedly told the two of them to come out and start filming immediately.
Shi Wanmeng and Su Muqing quickly got into the zone, acting as if they hadn't been away for so many days, and they nailed it in one take right away.
Director Tan happily shouted "Cut!" and was about to let them rest, but when he glanced at the even darker sky, he frowned and shouted, "Speed up and try to shoot a few more takes before the next rain comes."
Everyone responded quickly and, while adjusting the equipment, Xiao hope led them to a resting place and handed each of them a cup of hot water.
Shi Wanmeng and Su Muqing drank some water and caught their breath before getting back to filming. Everyone worked hard and finally finished filming three scenes before the rain started to fall.
Director Tan looked at the sky, sighed helplessly, and announced a halt to filming.
"Don't we often do this these days?" Shi Wanmeng couldn't help but ask when she saw how skilled everyone was at it.
"The weather in the mountains changes so quickly, we really didn't expect that. Filming lately has been like fighting a war." Director Tan smiled bitterly, his face full of worry: "With this weather, every extra day of filming is a day's worth of money."
