Chapter 66 Life Always Requires Farewell

Jiang Yuan wasn't sure if Chao Yue's sleeping appearance could be considered peaceful.

Because he didn't see it at all.

The girl completely covered her face with a blanket, hiding it completely.

"I'm not afraid of not being able to breathe."

Jiang Yuan muttered something to herself, but didn't remove the blanket.

Let it cover you; it'll just block out the sunlight.

He gently lifted the slender and delicate girl into his arms, his strong and powerful arms keeping her steady without causing her the slightest jolt.

After getting off the bus, Li Yitong and the others saw Yang Chaoyue with her eye mask completely covering her face.

I gave Jiang Yuan a thumbs up.

Perhaps it's because I'm having a very happy time.

Yang Chaoyue hadn't dreamed for a long time.

Suddenly I was immersed in a dream.

-

She vaguely sensed that she was dreaming, but wasn't quite sure.

Consciousness follows the bizarre logic of dreams.

I was having a dream called birthday, both naturally and unnaturally.

In her dream, her brother helped her put on a birthday hat, and Sister Xue lit her birthday candles.

Sister Meng sang a birthday song for her.

Xiao Tian tried to cover her eyes again, but she cleverly dodged away.

Her parents watched her dodge the attack from across the room, laughing.

Sister Yu, Sister Jing, Sister Liying, Director Lin, and some people whose faces were not clearly visible clapped their hands lightly and hummed a song.

"Chaoyue, make a wish and blow out the candles."

My brother's voice is clear and pleasant, still so beautiful; I can never get enough of it.

I wonder if Hua Qiangu's brother will forget about her after she goes home from filming.

Although she always wanted to stay by her brother's side, she wouldn't if her brother went to make a movie.

It's not a good idea for her to follow along.

If only her brother didn't have an assistant, she had planned to stay by his side as a junior assistant anyway.

But that would be too pitiful for Sister Jing.

So, to avoid putting my brother in a difficult position, it's better to go home.

If I help my dad build a house, the villagers won't gossip about him anymore.

The father may not have a son, but he does have a daughter like her.

If possible, she wants to earn even more money in the future so she can bring her father to live in a big house in Shanghai.

Building houses, building houses —

Yang Chaoyue's wildly imaginative dream suddenly shifted to her hometown.

Amidst the red bricks and cement, she held blueprints, looked at the land, and pondered how to build a house.

The girl walked on the house site, looking left and right.

Driven by the dream, I had no idea that I had just celebrated my birthday.

I had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but I was being pushed forward by the powerful force of the dream.

"Dad, we're building our house like this."

As Chaoyue spoke, she looked up at her father, her active brain, which was almost fully awake during her dream, paused for a moment.

It seems like she's celebrating her birthday? Her brother wants her to blow out the candles and make a wish.

The girl realized she was dreaming.

Change back to normal!

Chaoyue was furious. Then, the dream shifted, and she was inexplicably being chased by zombies again.

Still can't wake up —

The girl felt sorry for herself.

"Chaoyue is frowning; she's probably having a nightmare."

A soft laugh could be heard.

"Wake up, Chaoyue."

Yang Chaoyue opened her eyes at the call.

Bang!

Fireworks exploded, and colorful ribbons drifted into Chaoyue's slightly dazed gaze.

"Happy birthday."

Jiang Yuan smiled at her while holding up a firework tube.

Yang Chaoyue subconsciously reached out to touch her brother.

Jiang Yuan took the opportunity to grab her hand and help her sit up.

"Happy birthday!" everyone shouted in unison from inside the room.

Before Yang Chaoyue could react...

"Put the birthday hat on the princess." Li Yitong quickly put the birthday hat on Yang Chaoyue's head.

"Put the glasses on the princess too." Meng Ziyi took a pair of cute, quirky glasses and put them on Yang Chaoyue's face.

"Light another cigarette for the princess."

Tian Xiwei then shoved the candle into Yang Chaoyue's hand, pretending to light it with a lighter.

Startled, Yang Chaoyue snapped back to reality and shouted, "Xiao Tian, ​​stop!"

"whee."

Seeing that she was awake, Tian Xiwei smiled playfully, "You look so dazed, I just wanted to wake you up."

Laughter echoed from the lively room again.

Yang Chaoyue glanced around the room and noticed that besides her brother, Sister Xue, Sister Meng, Sister Xiaotian, Sister Yu, and Sister Jing, the colorful ribbons were also there.

Sister Liying and Sister Jiang Xin were also there.

Finally, Yang Chaoyue looked at Jiang Yuan in front of her, wanting to rub her eyes, but found that she had been given glasses.

"So everyone already knew." The girl was somewhat touched.

"I think you're the only one who doesn't know this." Jiang Yuan tapped her forehead.

Zhao Liying laughed and said, "Chaoyue, you're the only one in our main creative team who celebrated your birthday during filming."

"It's a pity I didn't have time to buy a cake," Jiang Xin said, feigning a sigh.

"No need, everyone is fine as they are."

Yang Chaoyue didn't see a cake, and whispered, "I'm very satisfied with so many people wishing me a happy birthday."

Jiang Yuan joked, "There are only a few of us. You're already satisfied?"

Yang Chaoyue swallowed her tongue. Actually, she was just satisfied that her brother cared about her.

Snapped!

Jiang Yuan clapped his hands.

The half-closed door suddenly swung open.

Bang bang bang!

Ma Ke and his group rushed in carrying firework tubes and sprayed them all at the ceiling.

Huo Jianhua, who usually acts aloof, and Lin Yufen, along with many other members of the crew, flocked in.

Everyone sent their birthday wishes to the confused Yang Chaoyue.

"Stop spraying the confetti cannons, stop spraying the cake, stop spraying the cake!"

Xiao Yu and Jing Jing pushed the big cake in, and when they saw that Ma Ke still wanted to play with it, they quickly protected the cake.

"Horse, thirsty, do you want to die?"

Jiang Xin's eyes widened.

Ma Ke quickly put down the firework tube in his hand and smiled sheepishly.

Jiang Xin is not someone to be trifled with, unlike Zhao Liying who sometimes unintentionally has a sharp tongue.

When Jiang Xin is unhappy, she can be as blunt and sharp-tongued as a cleaver.

I won't tolerate your behavior.

Therefore, some people say that she has low emotional intelligence.

When the enormous cake was pushed in front of Yang Chaoyue.

The girl couldn't hold back her tears; she started laughing and then burst into tears: "Thank you, thank you everyone."

Jiang Xin's low emotional intelligence kicked in again, and she bluntly said, "Actually, we didn't know your birthday. Jiang Yuan mentioned it to us."

Li Yitong, Meng Ziyi, and Tian Xiwei exchanged a glance and smiled helplessly.

This woman is acting out of line again.

But they also knew that Jiang Xin didn't mean any harm.

"Yes, after finding out, Sister Jiang Xin gave me a lot of advice."

Li Yitong helped Jiang Xin and Yang Chaoyue explain.

"Yes, thank you, Sister Jiang Xin."

Yang Chaoyue wiped away her tears and nodded sincerely.

"And Brother Jiang didn't just mention it casually; we were all notified by Brother Jiang to come."

Ma Ke joked to liven up the atmosphere, "Who dares to disrespect Brother Jiang?"

Xiao Man, who had done Jiang Yuanma's hair, laughed and said, "We didn't force you to come. Chao Yue is such a nice girl, I would have come even if you hadn't asked."

Other crew members also joined in the commotion.

"Exactly, damn it! How much mosquito repellent and wet wipes did Brother Jiang's fans send us to help us get through the mosquito bites in the mountains?"

"Don't even mention that Brother Jiang invited me. Even if Brother Jiang hadn't asked, I would have shamelessly come to eat Chaoyue's birthday cake."

Some people also mentioned Gulnazar.

"Brother Jiang, when are you going to invite Sister Nazha to visit the set again?"

Jiang Yuan replied with a smile, "I think you're just craving the milk tea and ice cream that Nazha is treating you to."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Zhao Liying feigned displeasure: "What? The food I, the leading actress, treated you to wasn't good?"

Everyone laughed again.

Jiang Yuan handed Chaoyue a cake knife: "Don't cry, you're all covered in tears. Get up and cut the cake for everyone."

"Yes, my brother is the best."

Yang Chaoyue took the cake and began distributing it to everyone in the crew.

She saw them off one by one, from the lead actors and director to the special guests and crew members.

A cake the size of a table disappeared very quickly.

"Director Lin, can I video chat with my dad?"

Yang Chaoyue cautiously asked director Lin Yufen.

"Of course, it's not a secret."

Lin Yufen smiled and pointed at Zhao Liying, "Look, our leading lady has already filmed it, and she might even wish you a happy birthday on Weibo later."

"Director Lin has sharp eyes; I really intend to do just that."

Zhao Liying waved her phone. "Chaoyue, when I tag you later, you have to give me face and reply, otherwise it will be too embarrassing for me to perform a solo act."

"Thank you, Sister Liying, I will reply."

Upon hearing this, Li Yitong paused for a moment as she scrolled through the selfies the group had just taken on her phone.

Zhao Liying's Weibo followers increased rapidly this July.

The drama "Boss & Me" which aired on July 8th became a minor hit.

In the past two years, with the help of a series of dramas such as "Legend of Lu Zhen" and "Boss & Me", her fan base has exceeded 10 million.

Zhao Liying tagging Yang Chaoyue's account will definitely bring Yang Chaoyue a lot of attention.

Li Yitong also wanted to post a Weibo message to wish Yang Chaoyue well.

But under this comparison...

Her account, with only 30,000 followers, seemed rather conspicuous.

Will people say she's trying to freeload?

Chaoyue always called her Sister Xue, but in reality, she seemed to be a loser who couldn't offer any help.

Sigh, she still doesn't have enough fans, so nothing she does goes well.

"Motong, what's wrong?"

Jiang Yuan turned back and saw Li Yitong with a conflicted expression.

He and Ma Ke had just smeared cake on Huo Jianhua's face.

Huo Jianhua, setting aside his aloofness, is quite mischievous; he even dared to smear cake on the crew members after teasing them.

Jiang Yuan and his group immediately retaliated and punished them.

In fact, Ma Ke, Dong Chunhui, and others did not dare to apply it at first.

But Jiang Yuan doesn't care about this or that.

If you dare to smear me, you'll pay the price.

Jiang Yuan went up, and the others, seeing that Huo Jianhua wasn't unhappy and could take a joke, also joined in.

However, the boys only touched on the topic briefly.

They didn't smear the cream directly on the person's face with a paper bowl; they just dabbed a little bit of cream on it as a gesture.

"You bastard, if I sign a management contract with Xu Yiruo, will you blame me?"

When Li Yitong saw Jiang Yuan, she didn't answer his questions, but instead asked him about them.

"Why would I blame you?" Jiang Yuan asked, puzzled.

He wasn't surprised that Xu Yiruo and Li Yitong had reconnected.

After all, he was an insider.

In May, Xu Yiruo did not sign him.

I mentioned Hua Qiangu briefly, but I never thought that any of the girls would actually get the role.

Filming lasted for three months.

During this period, Xu Yiruo contacted Jiang Yuan again, but not to become Jiang Yuan's agent again.

News spread that Huayi Brothers had tried to curry favor with Jiang Yuan but was rejected.

Xu Yiruo, who had access to information within this circle, had given up hope.

Xu Yiruo contacted Jiang Yuan simply to maintain a relationship with this mysterious man.

But it was through this contact that Xu Yiruo learned that Mo Tong and Sister Meng had actually auditioned for the role of Hua Qiangu.

She wasn't even a minor character; after more screen time was added, Xia Zixun, played by Mo Tong, became the second female lead.

Meng Jie's portrayal of Ni Mantian is the number one villain, originally the second female lead.

The two actresses actually have about the same amount of screen time, so if we don't argue about who gets top billing, it wouldn't make a difference if they were both called the second female lead.

Xu Yiruo then had the idea of ​​cooperating with Li Yitong and Mengziyi.

I've been asking about it all this time.

"I'm currently affiliated with your studio. Wouldn't signing Xu Yiruo be betraying you?"

Li Yitong stared intently at Jiang Yuan, a hint of nervousness flashing in her eyes.

"What kind of betrayal is this?"

Jiang Yuan chuckled, "Didn't we say when we were affiliating with you that you could leave whenever you wanted? If you stay with me, Xiao Yu can't arrange any roles for you, and that would be a real waste of your time."

Jiang Yuan never forgot Li Yitong's ambition.

This is a girl with a firm goal: she wants to act, to have works, and to become famous.

Even before Jiang Yuan knew her in his previous life, he had heard of her nickname, "the ceiling of hard work."

Because she debuted late, she worked tirelessly on set, often working long hours without rest.

He filmed four dramas in a year, and the day after finishing filming one, he appeared on another film set.

There's only one day of free time throughout the year.

This has even sparked discussions.

After Jiang Yuan met her in this life, he was certain that she truly lived up to her name.

However, compared to model workers and those with firm goals.

Jiang Yuan was more impressed by the girl's cunning.

For the sake of the role, he shamelessly helped him fool Yueyue, the young lady of Ciwen.

Jiang Yuan didn't dislike it; on the contrary, she found it somewhat cute.

Yes, he also had a deep impression of her crescent-shaped eyes.

"I'm glad you don't blame me."

Li Yitong smiled and said, "Xu Yiruo told me that if I work with her, she can immediately help me get a new job after I finish filming here next week, so I can seamlessly join the cast of 'Beauty Maker'."

"So fast?" Jiang Yuan asked in surprise. "Aren't you going to rest?"

The story of Hua Qiangu is nearing its end.

Besides the male and female leads, filming will take another month.

Mo Tong and the others will finish filming in the next ten days.

Among the extras, Jiang Yuan, who played Dongfang Huoqing, finished filming the latest.

We may have to send them off one by one.

"No need to rest, there's nothing to rest about," Li Yitong said indifferently.

"You're in too much of a hurry."

Jiang Yuan joked, "Being with you makes me feel even lazier."

"It's not urgent."

Li Yitong looked into Jiang Yuan's eyes and said softly, "You have to move quickly so you won't be left behind or forgotten."

Jiang Yuan comforted him, saying, "The idea of ​​being forgotten is too heavy a burden. Audiences are usually quite forgiving."

Li Yitong didn't say anything, but she was actually talking about him.

"Are you alone?" Jiang Yuan asked.

"I don't know Sister Meng."

Seeing that Jiang Yuan still had some cream residue on his face, Li Yitong wiped it off for him with her hand.

She whispered, "But I'm going."

"After Chaoyue finishes filming, she'll go home to build a house. Xiaotian will go back to school to prepare for her make-up exams. You'll also be going to the next film crew, and Sister Meng will probably be too."

Jiang Yuan handed Li Yitong a tissue to wipe her hands.

She had dirt from his face on her hands, and didn't know to use tissues to wipe her face.

"It looks like our little team of extras is about to fall apart," Jiang Yuan said with a smile.

"Life always involves saying goodbye; everyone has their own life path."

Li Yitong lowered her eyes, feeling somewhat sad herself.

These past few months together, it feels like we've always been together.

We went to auditions together, memorized scripts together, recharged together, acted together, and played games together.

But eventually, we had to part ways.

Perhaps it's because they dislike sad atmospheres.

She continued with the good news: "However, Xu Yiruo seems to be mindful of you. She only talked to me about cooperation, not signing anyone. That's a way of respecting your rights."

She confided in me that Feibao Media was just a training ground for her, and she might leave to start her own business in a few years. If she left with me, I could also become a shareholder.

From this perspective, Xu Yiruo genuinely wanted to cooperate with me, rather than trying to deceive me.

"That's fine."

Jiang Yuan nodded. Actually, what exactly was the relationship between Xu Yiruo and Li Yitong in their past lives?

He had no idea either, and like the netizens, it was all hearsay.

After all, it's not uncommon in this world to have people who appear to have good relationships on the surface but secretly harbor discord.

Xu Yiruo may have treated Li Yitong well, but the company they started together after leaving together did not include any shares in Li Yitong's shares.

In that case, Mo Tong is essentially still a wage earner who has no control over his own life.

Relationships may change, but contracts will not.

Jiang Yuan still hoped that Mo Tong was doing well.

"When you sign a contract in the future, remember to send it to me for review."

Jiang Yuan didn't want to interfere in other people's lives. Mo Tong was right; everyone has their own life trajectory.

But he will eventually show favoritism to some people.

If I get a good script in the future, it would be nice to act in it with a few girls.

Running Man took this opportunity because of these considerations.

"You want to help me review the contract?"

Li Yitong's crescent-shaped eyes looked even more beautiful when she smiled.

"Yeah, you're a bastard. You graduated from Peking University with a law degree. You'll have no problem figuring out if the contract will rip me off."

"I will send you all contracts from now on for your review."
