Even before going to bed, Shen Zhiyi still couldn't figure out whether Lu Zichuan knew in advance that they were staying here.

After agonizing over it for a long time, Shen Zhiyi couldn't figure it out, so she simply gave up on thinking about it.

Anyway, she has nothing but editing skills, and she's also divorced. What could Lu Zichuan, a perfect man with a good family background, talent, and good looks, possibly want from her?

If we're talking about who should be worried about the two of them getting along, it's him.

And so, Shen Zhiyi fell asleep with her head on her pillow.

She was awakened by a scream the next day.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?!"

She came out in such a hurry that she didn't even put on slippers.

Tan Gui was sitting on the bed with a depressed look on her face, holding her head as if she was about to cry.

"Yaoyao?" Shen Zhiyi called out.

Tan Gui raised her head and cried, "I don't remember anything! I don't remember anything!!"

Shen Zhiyi: "What are you talking about? Did you lose something?"

She clearly remembered checking Tan Gui's things last night, and nothing was missing.

Tan Gui shook her head vigorously with a pained expression: "No, I vaguely remember a super handsome guy coming by, but I can't remember what he looked like at all!"

Shen Zhiyi: "..."

Needless to say, the handsome guy Tan Gui was referring to was definitely Lu Zichuan.

Seeing that she was alright, Shen Zhiyi turned to wash up. She thought that her skin would not be very good today because she had stayed up late yesterday, but surprisingly, her skin was radiant and even better than usual.

Looking at her radiant reflection in the mirror, Shen Zhiyi simply wiped her face with water. After going outside, she quickly fried two eggs for herself and Tan Gui. After eating, she prepared to go to work.

Tan Gui Hospital is relatively close to her home, and I originally wanted to take her there, but Shen Zhiyi thought it was too much trouble, so she took a taxi to the film set herself.

As soon as I entered, I heard the team members discussing Xu Zhesheng and Su Manman trending on social media.

"The project is already on a tight schedule, and yesterday Director Xu even gave us a day off for the first time ever. It must be because of this!"

"I told you that the child in Su Manman's belly is Director Xu's, but you didn't believe me!"

"You know, she wasn't pregnant when she joined our crew, but she got pregnant halfway through filming. Maybe it was love at first sight, and then things just took off..."

"Sigh, I really can't think of anything good about Su Manman. She's alright looking, but she's really just average in the entertainment industry! Why did Director Xu take a liking to her?"

"Shh, keep your voice down. Didn't you see how many times Director Xu has made exceptions for her? How dare you talk about her like that? Don't you want your job?"

"But the photos have already gone viral and are trending online, and neither of them has come out to admit anything. What do you think they're thinking? Is Director Xu going to throw a banquet after the movie is over?"

"I think it's unlikely. Although it's an open secret, Director Xu has never said anything about it to us. It's still uncertain whether the two will get married!"

Shen Zhiyi listened to these words without being moved in the slightest.

She turned on her computer and quietly and attentively began her work for the day.

Xu Zhesheng and Su Manman were nowhere to be seen all morning; everyone was working while occasionally gossiping about them.

Shen Zhiyi did not participate in the entire process.

During her lunch break, she didn't go back to that rented room. After being turned away twice, she was exhausted. Rather than confronting them head-on, she decided to take a short nap at her workstation. Although it wasn't as comfortable as lying in bed, it was still bearable.

As soon as work started in the afternoon, my colleagues pointed to the door and shouted, "Director Xu is here!"

Shen Zhiyi subconsciously turned her head away.

Xu Zhesheng's car came to a smooth stop at the entrance of the film set. He got out of the car first, then walked around to the passenger side and opened the passenger door with a gentle expression.

A pair of slender hands gently rested on his hands, and then Su Manman climbed out of the car.

She was dressed up carefully today, with exquisite makeup on her face and her hair piled high on the back of her head. She was still wearing loose clothes, but it was not hard to tell that she was about to give birth.

Perhaps because the photos had been leaked, the two no longer tried to hide their relationship and walked in hand in hand in a very open manner.

Xu Zhesheng went to the film set first, without glancing at Shen Zhiyi once.

Su Manman stayed in the editing room to rest, but she wasn't idle. She would talk to this person from time to time, and then get up to help with small tasks.

He'd offer to fetch someone a glass of water, or pick up a package for someone, saying he was free and wanted to help out, but who knows what he was really thinking.

Suddenly, a cry of surprise echoed throughout the workshop.

"Wow! Manman! Did you get proposed to? What a huge diamond ring! It must have cost a fortune!"

At this person's shout, everyone else immediately looked up and their gazes shifted to her right hand. On her delicate, white right middle finger was a diamond ring of at least three carats, which shone with iridescent brilliance under the light, dazzling the eyes.

Su Manman pretended to have discovered some earth-shattering secret, abruptly pulling her hand back and hiding it behind her back, her face blushing just right: "W-what proposal? Don't misunderstand! I just bought it because I thought it looked nice."

A colleague joked, "Buying a three-carat diamond ring so easily? Who would believe that!"

"That's right, we all saw it trending. Others might not know, but we certainly do! That person who was out at night with Director Xu was you!"

"Tell me quickly, when are you inviting me to your wedding?"

"No wonder Director Xu cares about you so much, so it turns out you two...hehe..."

My colleague raised two thumbs up, wiggled them, and smiled knowingly.

Su Manman's face turned even redder, so shy she wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground: "Alright, alright, why aren't you working properly? What are you looking at me for? If you don't finish today's task, Director Xu will scold you to death!"

As she spoke, her gaze unconsciously drifted towards Shen Zhiyi.

His gaze was filled with intense provocation.

Shen Zhiyi's gaze lingered on her diamond ring for a few seconds before she looked away.

While editing, I couldn't help but notice the plain silver ring on my right ring finger, and I was stunned for a moment.

That was the one Xu Zhesheng used when he proposed to her. At the time, he said:

"Zhizhi, I don't have any money right now, so this is all I can afford. It's not expensive, but I worked several jobs to buy it. Please don't mind. When I become successful in the future, I'll get you a bigger diamond ring."

Shen Zhiyi was deeply moved at that time. It was already a great honor that Xu Zhesheng was willing to marry her. As for the ring, she didn't care at all.

As a result, after their marriage, their lives gradually improved. Although she would recall what Xu Zhesheng had said when she looked at the plain ring, she didn't care that much about it.

She has never cared about these external things.

But today, it feels especially hot.

She raised her hand, took off the plain ring, and threw it, along with the sentiments of the past years, into the trash can beside her.
