"Okay, see you tomorrow!"

Bye-bye~

Lin Zhi smiled in response, then quickly got out of the car and left the area.

For the next three days, Lin Zhi would go over early every morning to accompany Li Xiaoran in her driving practice, and they would practice all day long.

therefore.

Li Xiaoran's driving skills have improved rapidly.

With diligent training, there shouldn't be any major problems getting started.

At Lin Zhi's urging, he even made two special trips on the highway.

Apart from a minor scratch on the front bumper that she accidentally grazed while parallel parking on the street, Li Xiaoran has not had any other accidents since.

of course!

This achievement is all thanks to Lin Zhi's dedicated follow-up coaching.

In addition, Li Xiaoran had previously accidentally bumped into Wu Jing, and she learned a great deal from that experience. Therefore, she became more careful and attentive during her subsequent driving practice.

I'm terrified that I might bump into someone again, which would be a huge problem!

However... such accidental collisions are not so common. During the novice driving period, it's already bad enough if one of these happens by chance. How can you expect to hit someone every day?

If I'm really that stupid or unlucky, then... to be honest, I really don't need to learn to drive anymore!

That would be better for both yourself and others.

Although Li Xiaoran wasn't exactly shrewd and capable, she wasn't stupid either. So she became more attentive and practiced carefully, and she didn't have a single major accident.

"Ha~ Aji~"

"I feel like I've completely mastered driving!"

"Thank you so much these past few days! You've come over every day to teach me how to drive... and you've completely taught someone as clumsy as me!"

"I'll treat you to a big meal tonight as a token of my gratitude!"

After learning to drive, Li Xiaoran thanked Lin Zhi with a happy expression.

And warmly invited Lin Zhi to a lavish meal...

Lin Zhi showed no sign of pride or arrogance, but simply smiled and said, "Driving is not difficult; it just requires a lot of on-road experience."

"Anyone can learn it. Even without me by your side, Sister Ran, you can figure it out quickly on your own..."

"It will just take a little time."

However, that's what he said.

Li Xiaoran warmly invited him to a big meal to express her gratitude, and Lin Zhi didn't refuse.

Another point worth mentioning is...

These past few days.

Besides spending time with Li Xiaoran and practicing driving every day, Lin Zhi and Li Xiaoran also took some time to buy some fruit and visit Wu Jing at Peking Union Medical College Hospital.

After several days of calming down, adjusting, and reflection, Wu Jing's anger towards them has almost completely dissipated.

Wu Jing was originally a broad-minded and cheerful person.

So, after the pent-up frustration dissipated over time, when Lin Zhi and Li Xiaoran visited him in the hospital again, Wu Jing had completely changed his previous listless attitude. He chatted and laughed with them, and even comforted them with words, saying that he was fine now. Even if it delayed the filming of that movie, it was fate, so it didn't matter.

Seeing that Wu Jing had generously forgiven her, Li Xiaoran was overjoyed.

She hasn't been sleeping well at night for the past few days.

That's what I'm worried about.

Seeing that Wu Jing herself didn't care about the matter anymore and even comforted her, she suddenly felt a wonderful sense of relief, as if the clouds had parted and the moon was shining brightly. The gloom that had accumulated in her heart vanished in an instant.

Wu Jing's agent, however, maintained the same cold attitude towards them.

Clearly, opinions about them haven't changed much.

But Li Xiaoran was already content; she was grateful that the other party hadn't scolded her.

So even though the other party always treated her coldly.

She thought it was normal.

A few more days passed...

Lin Zhi heard that Wu Jing found it boring to stay in the hospital, so with the attending physician's signed consent, she went home to recuperate, leaning on crutches.

Therefore, it saved Li Xiaoran a lot of money on medical expenses that she had to pay in advance.

This weekend, Wang Baoqiang finally finished filming on location and returned to Beijing.

To Lin Zhi's surprise, Wang Baoqiang was accompanied by a middle-aged director when she returned this time.

The middle-aged director is named Li Yang, and according to Wang Baoqiang, he met him outside of work.

Because she was planning to film a movie recently, Wang Baoqiang specifically set up a connection with the other party. During her trip back to Beijing, she managed to lure director Li Yang to the capital, hoping to build a strong relationship with him and secure a role in his upcoming film project...

"Lin Zhi~"

"Listen up, kid. This Director Li Yang is a benefactor I finally managed to befriend. He's a top expert who studied in Germany and used to make documentaries. Now he's brought in a huge investment from abroad and is preparing to come back to China to make a movie..."

"You can write screenplays, right? Hehe, I bragged about you to him before, saying how amazing and good your screenplays are, that you're practically a reincarnation of Cao Xueqin and a brain of Wu Cheng'en, and that you can stand shoulder to shoulder with screenwriting masters like Liu Heping and Lu Wei..."

"And guess what? He actually believed it! This time he insists on coming to Beijing with me, wanting to pay you to write a script. You, kid, do him this favor and see if you can meet his demands..."

"If we can actually produce a script that satisfies him, and he agrees, he'll cast me as the male lead. This is a matter of my future and prospects, so you absolutely have to give me a push and help me get to the top!"

As soon as Wang Baoqiang returned with director Li Yang, he pulled Lin Zhi aside and began to whisper and chuckle as he recounted the story.

Upon hearing this, Lin Zhi realized that this was the matter.

He nodded and said, "Alright, I'll do my best... Whether it works or not depends on luck."

"Well, just give it your all and don't let me down..." Wang Baoqiang chuckled, then suddenly punched Lin Zhi in the chest, laughing strangely, "I don't know why, but I have a feeling you... can definitely write a decent script!"

"I think this will definitely work out! If I get the lead role, I'll never forget your kindness, my good brother!"

Lin Zhi grinned and chuckled, "Heh~ Nothing is absolute. I can't guarantee anything, and don't get too excited yet..."

"Be careful, too much joy can turn to sorrow!"

"Opening the champagne halfway through the journey...that's a no-no!"

"I don't even know what kind of script they need! Let's play it safe and not celebrate before anything's even started!"

"If it fails later on, and the scriptwriters don't like it, then you'll have no one to blame but yourself... don't you think?"

Wang Baoqiang nodded and said, "I know, it's just a little daydreaming, I don't really think it's a sure thing or that everything will go smoothly... I'll go and call him over and introduce him to you."

"Later we discussed taking it slowly, seeing how to make this as easy as possible for his mother..."

After whispering to each other for a while, Wang Baoqiang pulled Director Li Yang, who was waiting nearby, over and solemnly introduced him to Lin Zhi.

"So it's Director Li Yang. I've heard so much about you."

After Lin Zhi met the other party, he immediately said a few flattering words.
