I'm a web novelist, and you want me to work in the entertainment industry?

The next morning.

Before dawn had even fully broken, the hardworking Master Cheng had already thrown himself out of bed—after all, there's nothing in the world more exciting than going to see your girlfriend.

Xiao Tang had already arrived and, following Cheng Che's orders, bought him breakfast.

After waking up and drinking a cup of black coffee that was so bitter it felt like it would explode, Cheng Che ate breakfast with a ferocious expression, then left home to prepare for his journey.

Xiao Tang sat in the passenger seat, constantly using her phone to confirm various information with the crew.

Cheng Che sat in the back seat with a baseball cap on his head, watching the car slowly drive out of the city, where skyscrapers turned into vast fields and a low-hanging sky.

The journey was relatively smooth, and the car arrived at its destination on time.

Cheng Che stopped the car in an inconspicuous spot on the outskirts of the film studio. As soon as he got out, he could see a woman who looked to be middle-aged standing by the roadside.

The middle-aged woman had her hands in her pockets, one leg was shaking uncontrollably, and her face was full of impatience. Unless someone owed her a lot of money and hadn't paid it back, it was very likely that she was going through menopause.

And this person was none other than Sister Zhang.

Sister Zhang is very unhappy right now, and the reason is very simple.

Ever since Cabbage and Pig got together, she's changed. She's no longer the obedient girl who always thought of her manager.

She had already arranged a meeting time with Xiaotang, and she planned to go out fifteen minutes early to wait for her.

Honestly, don't think fifteen minutes is a short time. Fifteen minutes is actually quite a lot!

Those who feel they have too little social skills should reflect on themselves: Have they made an effort to socialize over the years? Have they seriously learned how to interact with others? Have their social skills improved?

However, Bai Cai thought it wouldn't work, insisting that arriving fifteen minutes early wasn't enough to be safe. What if they were late? Wouldn't Cheng Che and the others just be standing on the street for nothing?

She was forced to leave more than half an hour earlier...

She felt that Bai Cai's concerns were not unreasonable.

But darling, is it possible that if she went out to pick someone up so far in advance and didn't see them, she would just be standing on the street for nothing?

Sister Zhang felt wronged, but she didn't say anything.

It's all that damn blond guy's fault!!

"Sister Zhang." Xiao Tang waved, successfully attracting Sister Zhang's attention.

Following the sound, Sister Zhang looked up and saw Xiao Tang and Cheng Che getting out of the car one after the other.

"Oh?" Sister Zhang said sarcastically, "His Majesty the Emperor has finally arrived? This humble woman has been waiting here for quite some time."

Cheng Che gave Sister Zhang a strange look and said:

"Sister Zhang, stop joking. At your age, you shouldn't call yourself a 'little woman'... From a more rigorous perspective, you can call yourself a 'middle-aged woman,' that is, a middle-aged woman." He smiled gently.

"...Do you think your readers would do something if they knew you were here?" Sister Zhang's forehead veins bulged.

"Getting impatient, getting impatient," Cheng Che mocked.

Does threatening me work?

He hasn't stopped updating lately, nor has he written about any dead characters, so he's not afraid at all!

"Ahem." Xiao Tang stepped forward. "Well, Sister Zhang, Brother Che, let's go inside first. It wouldn't be good if we stayed outside too long and someone took pictures of us."

This area outside the film studio is no place for playing house; it's where the most people secretly take photos.

"I have no objection," Cheng Che said, indicating that Xiao Tian was the most important person in the world.

"Alright," Sister Zhang sighed, "Come with me."

Xiao Tang breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this—she felt she deserved the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize.

Cheng Che put on his hat and mask and walked with Sister Zhang into the film and television city.

"There are a lot of people and eyes on the set, so don't wander around once you're inside, especially don't go near Xiao Tian if you see him." As she walked, Sister Zhang didn't forget to give some instructions.

What kind of talk is that?

Cheng Che was very dissatisfied.

Could he be the kind of person who can't walk away when he sees his girlfriend?

兑！

You have a good eye for people.

"Xiaotian should still be filming right now," Sister Zhang added at the end. "You should stay away from her for now, so as not to disturb her getting into character. Put your phone on silent."

Tsk... Cheng Che clicked his tongue.

I'm very unhappy that you told me to stay away from my girlfriend.

But your words indirectly highlight how important I am to Xiaotian, and I'm very happy about that.

After registering at the security office, the three entered the film studio.

Because he had never seen it before, Cheng Che looked around curiously, finding everything new and interesting, much like "Grandma Liu visiting the Grand View Garden".

The place was much more lively than he had imagined. People dressed in theatrical costumes were everywhere. Some were squatting by the roadside eating steamed buns in ancient costumes, while others were hurrying past them in school uniforms. Many others were looking around with cameras.

Further in, the fences enclosed area after area, and the stagehands were constantly talking on walkie-talkies. The noise was deafening, and everyone gave Cheng Che the impression that they were extremely busy.

Sister Zhang led them along a small path for a while, and suddenly the view opened up, revealing a whole set of scenery that had been set up.

It's like a quaint, old-fashioned town with white walls and black tiles, small bridges and flowing water, strings of lanterns hanging under the eaves, and a green pond under the bridge.

Beside the bridge, a group of staff members surrounded the camera, while the director sat in front of the monitor with several actors standing beside him.

Cheng Che spotted Tian Xiwei at a glance—she was standing by the small bridge, dressed in a light blue ancient costume, the hem of which almost covered the ground.

He immediately felt his health bar start to regenerate automatically.

"Would you like to sit in the rest area for a while, or go watch Xiao Tian filming?" Sister Zhang was still very democratic.

"Of course I'm going to see her," Cheng Che said decisively.

"OK."

Since she had already informed the production team and director, there was nothing difficult about it, and Sister Zhang gestured for Cheng Che to follow her.

Because Cheng Che's outfit was so eye-catching, and because many people in the crew knew that Sister Zhang was Tian Xiwei's agent, it was hard for them to go unnoticed as they walked along.

Several female extras dressed in coarse cloth sat by the wall drinking water. When they saw a figure pass by, they all subconsciously looked up.

They weren't too surprised to see Sister Zhang, knowing she was Tian Xiwei's agent.

But then they saw the mysterious man following behind Sister Zhang, wearing a baseball cap and a mask. They all froze, and a single thought simultaneously crossed their minds:

Which big star came to visit Tian Xiwei on set?

Or was it a man?

One of them narrowed his eyes, as if he recognized something, and suddenly slapped his companion's thigh, causing the other to gasp in pain.

Just as the attacked girl was about to curse, she heard the attacker lower his voice and say:

"Doesn't that guy look like Cheng Che?"

The intended insult was swallowed back down, replaced by a curt "What the hell?"

The same scene happened many times in various corners of the film crew.

Cheng Che scratched his head, feeling that his mask was making him look rather conspicuous, almost like a panda crossing the street...

He could hear many people speaking in hushed tones.

"It seems to be Cheng Che, here to see Xiao Tian, ​​right?"

"Do you think they're secretly dating?"

"Hiss—I know! You guys said Cheng Che came to visit the set, does that mean... we can have an extra meal at noon?"

"...666, you little glutton, you're something else."
