Huayu: Just started as a stagehand, but the director's comeback system

"The Fu family's daughter and grandson are back! Come and visit your auntie."

"This car doesn't look cheap; it must have cost a lot of money."

"My son told me yesterday that Fu's grandson made money from making a movie."

It took Jianghuai five hours to drive from the capital to Shanhaiguan, without ever leaving the highway.

The car was a Porsche rented by borrowing money from Huang Bo. Excluding the deposit, the rental cost 40,000 yuan for just one week.

However, now that he was surrounded by his fellow villagers, Jiang Huai felt that no matter how much money he had in the future, he would never have the same youthful spirit as he did at this moment.

Fu Lulu, in the passenger seat, never stopped smiling, and no one asked her when she got married; they only asked polite and agreeable questions.

She was already feeling the pinch from paying a 100,000 yuan deposit for Jianghuai car rental before her salary had even been paid. Now, however, she only regretted that Jianghuai had rented the car for such a low price.

Under Fu Lulu's direction, Jiang Huai drove around the neighborhood three more times to make sure all the neighbors could see him before the two of them went home.

"Hey, our two big directors are back! Old Jiang, come take a look."

As soon as Jiang Huai and his companion entered the house, they heard Fu Yi's chilling words.

Jiang Huai shuddered and let Fu Lulu walk in front of him before daring to call out "Mother".

"Your son's back. What are you and Lulu pushing around for?"

Jiang Jianguo, who was painting on the second floor, heard his wife's voice, put on a suit jacket, and quickly ran downstairs.

Jiang Jianguo dressed formally not for Jiang Huai's sake, but simply because he had just seen Jiang Huai drive back in a Porsche 911 Carrera 4 from the second floor, and he had never driven such a luxury car before and wanted to experience it firsthand.

"This car key is cool, my wife won't have to wait for me to come home for dinner tonight."

"Jiang Jianguo, if you don't make it back tonight, you're finished."

Jiang Jianguo, who was eager to go out and show off, didn't notice the expression on Fu Yi's face and ran out quickly before she could finish speaking.

Jiang Huai had originally wanted to ask his father to put in a good word for him, but now that it seemed hopeless, he had no choice but to steel himself and push Fu Lulu out.

"Hehe, you look even prettier than before! Where are Mom and Dad?"

Fu Lulu was caught off guard when Jiang Huai pushed her out. After greeting him somewhat awkwardly, she immediately turned around and glared at Jiang Huai.

"Yes, Mom, where are my grandparents?"

"I went out to buy groceries for you two. Come over here and let me see."

Fu Yi forcibly pulled Jiang Huai, who was still lingering at the door, in front of her, and looked at the two of them, who were somewhat tanned, with one hand on each arm.

She had already found Jiang Huai a job at the Cultural Bureau, but unexpectedly, Jiang Huai went astray after graduation and ended up going to a film crew with Fu Lulu.

I thought he'd just have some fun and then settle down, but now he's completely entered the entertainment industry.

"Why is it all black? It looks like the black dog next door."

Although Fu Yi didn't want her son to go to a place full of self-interest, the other person was just like his father, willing to risk his life for a dream, so it was probably pointless to persuade him now.

Without giving them much of a scolding, after asking their parents, the two were allowed to go back to their rooms to rest.

"It's still the same as when I was a child."

Fu Yi sat alone on the sofa, watching the two of them playfully bickering as they went up the stairs. Their personalities hadn't changed at all.

After arriving at the room, Jiang Huai was exhausted from driving all the way. He sat on the bed and thought about going to China Film Group to share the profits after the movie finished its run. He chuckled to himself and then fell asleep.

When I opened my eyes again, I was woken up by my father. It was already dark outside, and my grandparents were calling me downstairs for dinner.

Jiang Huai stretched and responded. Although the bed at home wasn't as comfortable as the one outside, it was exceptionally cozy. After regaining his composure, he went downstairs with Jiang Jianguo.

"Grandson, come and sit down. Grandma made your favorite pork ribs."

"Okay, Grandma, I'll sit next to you later."

"Okay, eat more later."

The meal was very plentiful, even more so than Jiang Huai usually did in the two days before returning home. This time, he shouldn't be forced to eat leftovers on the third day after returning home.

Fu Xuan, who was already at the dinner table, saw Jiang Huai come down and wanted to pick up the cigarettes he had brought back to smoke, but he had no choice but to give up after being glared at by Fu Yi.

Today, the whole family was together, and everyone ate a bit more. Jiang Huai and Fu Lulu, in particular, hadn't had home-cooked meals in a long time, and they even fought over the last piece of pork rib. In the end, Jiang Jianguo gave it to Fu Yi, and that's when they stopped.

"Xiao Huai, you two come with me to the study for a chat."

After finishing their meal, Jiang Huai wanted to help clean up the dishes. He even complained a bit about Fu Lulu in front of his mother before running back to put on makeup. But now that his grandfather had called, the two of them had no choice but to obediently go inside.

"You only brought that one carton of cigarettes?"

Seeing that Jiang Huai had locked the door, Fu Xuan quickly asked if he had brought any extra cigarettes. At home, Fu Yi and her mother were very strict, and he had to sneak around if he wanted to smoke one.

"Dad, please smoke less. Mom and my sister are just trying to help you."

Before Jiang Huai could answer, Fu Lulu interrupted the two of them. Jiang Huai had indeed wanted to secretly buy another souvenir for Fu Xuan when he bought the local specialties, but she stopped him.

"Ahem, I was just saying. Come sit down and let's talk about something else."

Fu Xuan wasn't angry when his youngest daughter retorted. He stroked his beard and then had the two of them sit opposite him.

"You didn't do anything illegal while you were out, did you?"

The entertainment industry has changed a lot in recent years. He knows that many people in it are involved in illegal and disorderly activities. He can't control others, but he absolutely cannot touch his own people.

"How could that be, Grandpa? You don't know me. I was a Young Pioneer when I was a child."

"You were only a Young Pioneer in elementary school, and you even used my ID to sneak into internet cafes in junior high."

It would have been better if Jiang Huai hadn't mentioned it, because mentioning it made Fu Xuan even more worried. Both of them always went to parent-teacher conferences by themselves and Jiang Jianguo, and when they got home, they would spend ages making up a good thing about what the teacher said.

"You were young and didn't know any better. Look at me, the first time I skipped class, it was my aunt who took me. And my aunt has changed for the better now."

When Jiang Huai heard his grandfather reveal his past, he quickly shifted the blame to Fu Lulu, ignoring the two kicks she gave him from below.

"Dad, I was afraid of the dark when I was a child, how could I have done those things?"

Seeing Jiang Huai fiddling with the calligraphy brush on the table, Fu Lulu kicked it again and could only quickly promise.

"Alright, you two, I can still trust you. Have you been bullied outside?"

Fu Xuan didn't delve any deeper into the topic. He had only intended to offer them a few words of advice, and that was enough for them to understand.

"Even without my maternal grandfather, I have my aunt protecting me. No one would dare to bully me."

Seeing Fu Lulu's gesture as if she was about to complain, Jiang Huai stopped fiddling with his brush and quickly spoke first, silencing Fu Lulu.

"Hehe, yeah, Dad, nobody's bullying me."

Before Jiang Huai graduated, no one bullied her. At most, she was sometimes busy on the film set, but that was normal work. Until that day, she met Jiang Huai, and she even dreamed about helping him run errands.

"That's good. If you get bullied, remember to call home. Even though I'm old, I still have some connections."
