I am a historical film director in the entertainment industry.

Outside the residential compound where Cheng Sheng lives.

Cheng Sheng, who had just paid the driver, couldn't help but glance at Mei Ting.

Although Mei Ting looked heartbroken, she was dressed stunningly in a watercolor print shirt and straight skirt.

Mei Ting's black and white shirt outfit is absolutely recognizable and belongs to the king.

Shedding the boredom and blandness of a plain white shirt, this outfit can enhance your temperament and look stylish. Basic styles and minimalism are always the first choice for mature women.

She was beautiful, but her eyes were filled with sadness, clearly deeply hurt by Yanpo.

But who can blame it?
It's all because of my own love-struck mind.

All I can say is that being love-struck is a bad thing.

At the height of her career, she suddenly gave up everything and became a full-time "kitchen hero," cooking, washing clothes, and taking care of him every day.

To be honest, after reading about Mei Ting's experience, Cheng Sheng felt that she was quite remarkable.

She gave her all for Yanpo. She even told a friend that if she couldn't become famous, she would just let it go. She bought her own house, didn't take any acting fees, and being in debt was just like a normal part of life.

She gave everything to Yanpo, and after filming "Aspirin," she was almost a liability.

You can tell by the fact that she can't even afford the fare now.

The most valuable thing she has right now is probably her cell phone.

"Director Cheng, thank you."

Mei Ting said in a low voice.

"You're welcome, come with me!"

Cheng Sheng said something, then took the lead and walked ahead.

"Here, Sister Li is watching TV at my house."

Upon arriving on the fifth floor, Cheng Sheng saw Mei Ting heading towards Zeng Li's house and immediately called out.

"Oh! Big Pear is watching TV at your house?"

Mei Ting, who was originally grieving, was stunned.

Last time she came to Da Lizi's house, didn't they have a TV? Why did she go to Cheng Sheng's house to watch TV!
Although surprised, she still followed Cheng Sheng into the house.

"pear."

Upon entering, Mei Ting saw Zeng Li engrossed in watching television and cried out sadly before rushing forward to hug her.

Dig!

Seeing the two beautiful women embracing, Cheng Sheng secretly envied them, wishing he could be sandwiched between them; that would surely be very comfortable.

"Sister Ting, it's okay. It's not worth being sad over that scumbag. Let's watch TV. This show is really good."

Zeng Li patted Mei Ting on the shoulder reassuringly, but her eyes remained glued to the television.

Cheng Sheng shook his head speechlessly. "Is the TV series really that good? Your best friend is heartbroken!"
"You guys chat, I won't keep you company."

This was really not a suitable occasion for him, so Cheng Sheng went back to his room after saying that.

Zeng Li glanced at her best friend with a hint of resentment. She had planned to watch TV with Cheng Sheng tonight, but her best friend had ruined it.

Mei Ting wiped away her tears and said, "Big Pear, do you like him?"

"What?" Zeng Li was startled.

"Hmph! Don't think I can't see through you. Look at your outfit tonight, it's obviously for a date. And you have a TV at home, why are you here watching TV? Now you can't deny it anymore!" Mei Ting said.

"What am I arguing about? I just like him," Zeng Li said, pouting.

"Did you confess your feelings?" Mei Ting asked curiously. Zeng Li rolled her eyes and said, "So gossipy, aren't you sad now!"

“Big Pear, I don’t want to talk about that ingrate,” Mei Ting said softly.

"Okay, let's not talk about him, let's not talk about him." Zeng Li quickly changed the subject, otherwise she would upset her best friend again.

"Then tell me about yourself. What exactly is your relationship with Director Cheng?" Mei Ting asked.

Zeng Li hesitated for a moment before saying, "You guessed right, I like Cheng Sheng."

"When did it start?" Mei Ting asked.

"During the filming of 'The Great Tang Dynasty 1'."

"So what do you like about him? Is it his good looks?"

"He is handsome, but what I admire most about Cheng Sheng is his talent."

Zeng Li is a rather artistic young woman who likes talented men, and of course, it would be even better if they were good-looking.

Cheng Sheng perfectly fits Zeng Li's criteria for choosing a boyfriend.

Handsome and talented.

"Director Cheng is indeed talented. His 'The Great Tang Dynasty 1' amazed everyone. Even that scumbag praised Director Cheng in front of me," Mei Ting said.

"Mmm." Zeng Li's eyes sparkled, like a lovesick girl.

"Does Director Cheng know that you like him?" Mei Ting asked.

Zeng Li shook her head and said, "I probably don't know!"

"You've practically delivered yourself to Director Cheng's doorstep, and he hasn't even reacted?" Mei Ting asked in surprise.

You should know that Zeng Li was the most beautiful of the seven beauties from the Central Academy of Drama, and she had countless suitors back then.

Judging from Zeng Li's outfit tonight, she clearly came with a purpose, yet Cheng Sheng remained unmoved.

Mei Ting seriously doubted whether Cheng Sheng was even a man!
"Don't even mention it! If you hadn't called, I..."

Zeng Li rolled her eyes at the other person.

Mei Ting smiled awkwardly, not expecting that she had unintentionally ruined her best friend's plans.

"It's alright, you and Director Cheng live right across the hall, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future," Mei Ting said apologetically.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's watch TV. Descendants of the Sun is really good."

After Zeng Li finished speaking, she focused intently on the television.

Upon hearing this, Mei Ting was also incredibly curious about what kind of TV series could have captivated her best friend so much.

She knew about the drama "Descendants of the Sun," but because of the Yanpo incident, she hadn't paid attention to it recently, and had no mood to watch any TV series.

Seeing her best friend's reaction, she immediately took the show to heart.

The original plot of the second episode of "Descendants of the Sun" is that Yoo Si-jin arrives at the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan by helicopter, where two hostages are kidnapped. South Korea and the United States are conducting joint operations. However, during the training exercise, Yoo Si-jin's team makes a mistake and is ridiculed by the American army. Yoo Si-jin is indignant and fights with them. At this moment, his superior arrives.

This part of the original storyline is just too outrageous. How could South Korean soldiers dare to fight with American soldiers?
Isn’t this rebellion against Tiangang?
This part is probably just South Korea's wishful thinking.

In reality, when South Koreans see American soldiers, they're like mice before a cat—they wouldn't dare to resist!
Even if American soldiers mocked them, and even if they opened fire on South Korean soldiers, the South Korean soldiers wouldn't even have the courage to fight back.

There are nineteen foreign military units stationed in South Korea, which is almost equivalent to being a colony of the United States.

In South Korea, news reports of violence by American soldiers stationed there are frequent occurrences, ranging from punches and kicks to slaps and more serious incidents such as rape, gang rape, and even murder.

However, the South Korean people often silently endure this treatment, just like "the US military abuses me a thousand times, but I still treat the US military like my first love."

Although South Koreans typically display an "arrogant and confident" demeanor, they often appear subservient and humble when facing the US military. (End of Chapter)
