I entered Huayu Entertainment in 2016.

In the evening, the wrap party was held at a time-honored restaurant.

Before sitting down, Wang Zian went to Teacher Wang's place to repeatedly check on Liu Haochun's condition.

Wang Chunzai said she had already detached herself from the character's emotions, and just now she even joked with Xiaotian. The light in her eyes was much brighter than in the afternoon.

Only then did he feel relieved enough to sit down next to Liu Haochun.

As soon as he sat down, Zhou Ye immediately moved to sit on his other side.

After sitting down, she didn't say anything, but simply pushed her chopsticks in front of him, naturally declaring her attitude.

"Let's ask the boss to say a few words!" Old Li stood up and said;

"Okay!" everyone cheered.

After spending the last two weeks together, Wang Zian's code name changed from "General Manager Wang" to "Boss".

Wang Zian stood up and raised a glass of coconut milk: "I don't drink alcohol, but please feel free to drink as you like."

"Our first official drama has wrapped up filming, and we can take a breather tomorrow. But there are still two more dramas to go, so everyone needs to hold their breath and finish them."

"Furthermore, once 'Red-Haired Girl' is released, I will distribute bonuses according to the company's reward system based on its viewership performance!"

He deliberately paused there, looking at Old Yang's face, which was already full of expectation, and then smiled as he threw out the last two words, "Double."

"Oh~~~!" Everyone cheered happily upon hearing about the double bonus.

The private room erupted in chaos.

Old Yang was the first to stand up and cheer, raising his glass and nodding vigorously in Wang Zi'an's direction, not even noticing the wine spilling onto Old Li's shoulder.

No amount of nonsense can compare to the directness of the word "double".

Amidst the commotion, Wang Zi'an sat back down in her chair, turned to Zhou Ye, and asked in a low voice, "Regarding your 'The British Museum,' would you like to film it first or later?"

Zhou Ye picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork with his chopsticks and put it in his bowl. He didn't eat it right away, but thought for a moment before saying, "Let's film it later."

"When my sister heard that I was going to act in 'The British Museum,' she specially designed several period costumes for me. She said that the embroidery technique this time is different from before, and it has to be made by hand, stitch by stitch. The sample costumes haven't come out yet."

"I want to wait; I don't want to use makeshift clothes for my most important scene."

"Let's warm up a cup of tea first!"

"Then let's film 'Warm a Cup of Tea' first." Wang Zian looked up at Tian Xiwei across the table.

She was sharing a plate of honey-glazed glutinous rice lotus root with her makeup artist, Xiaoqi. The two of them were eating with beaming smiles, looking very happy.

Laugh now, but you probably won't be able to laugh once filming starts.

···

As the banquet progressed, everyone became restless and began to raise their glasses to toast the boss.

Prince An swirled his glass around the room, always using coconut milk instead of alcohol, taking a sip whenever someone clinked glasses with him.

Tian Xiwei had drunk some red wine, and two very faint blushes had appeared on her cheeks. Her voice was half an octave higher than usual.

Because Liu Haochun was a minor, she and Wang Zian drank coconut milk and ate vegetables quietly.

Zhou Ye stayed by Wang Zian's side the entire time, never leaving his side.

When someone arrived, he picked up his wine glass and took a small sip, appearing no different from usual.

But when Li Yunxiao came over with a glass of red wine to talk to Wang Zi'an, her eyes involuntarily drifted over to her.

Zhang Ruonan watched from the side and sighed inwardly. Taking advantage of Li Yunxiao walking away, she grabbed Zhou Ye's sleeve and pulled her to a corner of the private room.

Taking advantage of the brief moment when Zhou Ye was being dragged away by Sister Nan, Liu Haochun came around from the other side of the table.

She held the coconut milk cup up to Wang Zi'an, his doe-like eyes looking exceptionally clear under the warm yellow light.

"Brother Zian, this is for you."

Wang Zian raised his glass and clinked it against hers. "To you too, thank you for your hard work."

"It wasn't hard work." Liu Haochun took a small sip of coconut milk, and put down the cup with a satisfied smile. "I made a lot of money. My parents don't have to work so hard anymore."

Her extra pay for this film was 60,000 yuan, and with her salary this month, her income has exceeded six figures.

Her gaze quickly swept around to the side.

Zhou Ye was facing away from us, being pulled by Zhang Ruonan who was talking to him while he looked down; Xiao Tian was still fighting with Xiao Qi for the last piece of glutinous rice lotus root.

Nobody noticed this.

In a flash, she suddenly tiptoed and, very quickly and lightly, kissed Wang Zian on the cheek.

Then she held the coconut milk cup in front of her chest, turned around and left.

This warm and soft touch!

Wang Zian stood frozen in place as if struck by lightning.

The next second, he looked around guiltily.

Old Yang was singing, Old Li was clapping along, Zhou Ye had his back to them, and Xiao Tian was still grabbing the glutinous rice lotus root.

No one noticed this corner.

He slowly relaxed and told himself that Liu Haochun must have been too immersed in the role and hadn't completely let go of his emotions.

He sighed deeply.

Life is full of unexpected events; since we can't fight them, let's enjoy them.

But Hao Chun is only sixteen years old!

As the banquet was drawing to a close, Prince Ann announced a three-day break, with filming of "Warm Cup of Tea" to begin the day after tomorrow.

He had thought Tian Xiwei would jump up and down when she heard the news.

But at this moment, she sat blankly in the chair, holding a half-finished glass of red wine in her hand, her round almond eyes staring blankly ahead, her pupils clearly unfocused.

Red wine has a strong aftereffect, and she drank quite a bit in the second half of the meal. Now she's in a dizzy, alcohol-soaked state.

I guess he's gotten carried away.

As they were parting, Li Yunxiao and Teacher Wang came over.

The red and black horse-face skirt she wore today looked exceptionally beautiful under the lights; the hem swayed gently with her steps, making her appear graceful and elegant.

"Director Wang, I'll be going now. I have a performance in a couple of days, remember to come if you have time."

"I'll definitely go when I have time!"

"I guess you don't have time because you're filming!" Li Yunxiao smiled; she had seen enough in the past week.

The crew worked non-stop from morning till night, and the director himself was busier than anyone else.

"Thank you so much this time! It was supposed to take three days, but it ended up taking up a whole week of your time." Wang Zian's tone was full of sincere apology.

"It's okay, I did act in a movie too, right? Although that character was quite tragic, could you give me a better role next time?"

When Li Yunxiao said this, her slender eyes were watery, and there was a faint smile on her lips.

Wang Zian still gave her the role of the famous playwright who was forced to perform on stage by the Japanese and was eventually killed on stage.

After all, they stayed for so many extra days, we can't just leave them with nothing.

"No problem, I'll definitely ask you; you have so many roles to play." Wang Zian readily agreed, his tone cheerful and confident.

"I've got that in mind. Let's keep in touch."

Keep in touch!

Wang Chunzai walked over from behind and paused for a moment.

"I won't be coming anymore. If you encounter any more acting problems, come to me again."

Her tone remained indifferent; after speaking, she reached out and patted Wang Zi'an, a little harder than usual.

"Don't worry about us, I'll take her home. Keep an eye on your people!" She glanced meaningfully behind her.

Without waiting for Wang Zian's instructions, she turned around and walked out of the private room with Li Yunxiao. Their figures disappeared at the top of the stairs.
