Huayu: You were supposed to be a top star, but you've become capital?

Meanwhile, at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in the city center.

The car stopped in front of the hotel, and the doorman opened the car door. Chen Duling got out of the car, looked up at the brightly lit building, and paused.

Yang Yang followed, carrying his luggage: "Let's go in first."

When checking in at the front desk, Chen Duling tried to take out her ID card, but Yang Yang had already handed her a card:

"Brother Shen has made all the arrangements; you can just check in."

Chen Duling paused for a moment, then said, "No need, I can do it myself..."

"No, no, no," Yang Yang waved his hand, "Brother Shen specifically told me to do this, so don't be shy."

Chen Duling looked at him, her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she just nodded: "Then... thank him for me."

"You can thank him yourself," Yang Yang smiled. "Tell him in person when you see him tomorrow."

After completing the formalities, the two took the elevator. Chen Duling's room was on the 23rd floor. Yang Yang helped her carry her luggage to the door but didn't go in.

"Get some rest tonight, I'll come pick you up tomorrow, and then we'll go to Huairou together."

Chen Duling nodded: "Brother Yangyang, thank you so much, you've been up so late."

"Don't mention it." Yang Yang waved his hand. "Brother Shen's friends are my friends. Besides, I have to go back to the set; I've missed quite a few scenes these past few days."

He turned to leave, then remembered something and turned back to add, "By the way, the hotel breakfast is pretty good, remember to go for it tomorrow morning."

"it is good."

The door closed.

Chen Duling stood in the room, looking around.

The room was large, and the floor-to-ceiling windows offered a view of the capital city at night, with lights twinkling all the way to the horizon.

She walked to the window, looked at the night outside, and suddenly felt a little dazed.

Just a few hours ago I was on Xiamen Island, and now I'm in one of the tallest hotels in Beijing, with the city's most vibrant night view right outside my window.

The person who arranged all of this was Lin Shen.

Chen Duling took out her phone and opened her chat with Lin Shen.

The message I sent in the hotel lobby was still on the screen: "Lin Shen, we've arrived at the hotel. Thank you for the arrangements, the hotel is wonderful~"

She stared at the screen for a while, then scrolled through the chat history.

Then I put down my phone, went to the bathroom to wash up, and when I came out, my phone vibrated.

Lin Shen: "I'll finish work tomorrow at noon. I'll have Yang Yang bring you over so we can have lunch together. I'll show you around the film set."

Chen Duling stared at the message, her heart skipping a beat.

She typed: "Okay, then I won't be polite~"

After thinking for a moment, she added, "By the way, Yang Yang said you filmed all day today, get some rest, see you tomorrow!"

send.

The reply came quickly: "See you tomorrow."

Chen Duling looked at those two words, covered her phone to her chest, and rolled half a circle on the bed.

In Huairou, my phone suddenly vibrated.

Lin Shen looked down and saw it was a message from Chen Duling. He glanced at it, replied, and was about to put it down when the bathroom door opened.

Bai Mengyan came out wrapped in a bath towel, her hair wet, her face flushed from the steam.

She glanced at Lin Shen, then at the clock on the wall, and then walked over and pulled him up.

"Hurry up, it's getting late."

Lin Shen was being pulled towards the bathroom by her. He turned back to look at her and asked, "What's the rush?"

Bai Mengyan's face turned even redder, but she didn't hold back: "I'm leaving tomorrow, so we need to make the most of tonight, right?"

Lin Shen looked at her like this and suddenly laughed.

Fine.

He turned around and pulled her into his arms.

Bai Mengyan exclaimed "Ah!" and before she could react, he led her towards the bathroom.

"What are you doing!"

"Didn't we say we should hurry?" Lin Shen looked down at her. "Let's shower together, it'll save time."

Bai Mengyan: "..."

Bai Mengyan: "Why didn't you say so earlier?!"

Her face was flushed red, but her hands honestly wrapped around his neck.

The bathroom door was closed.

The sound of water resumed.

This time, however, other voices have been mixed in.

-----------------

The next morning, Bai Mengyan felt so sleepy she was about to ascend to heaven.

Lin Shen dragged her out of bed at seven in the morning and shoved her and Xiao Zhang into the car, driving them all the way back to the city from Huairou.

I was hoping to catch up on some sleep in the car, but that girl Xiao Zhang kept chattering the whole way, and wouldn't let me close my eyes.

When the car finally came to a stop downstairs at Lucky Glory, Bai Mengyan felt like a salted fish.

"Sister Lu, we're here!" Xiao Zhang turned around energetically.

Bai Mengyan gave a weak "hmm," pushed open the car door, and her feet went limp when they touched the ground.

The elevator went up, the doors opened, and she yawned as she walked inside.

After taking a couple of steps, he suddenly remembered something, turned around, and headed towards Jia Shikai's office.

Regardless, I should let my boss know when I get back to the company.

The office door was ajar. Bai Mengyan knocked, and Jia Shikai's voice came from inside: "Come in."

She pushed open the door and went in. Jia Shikai was sitting behind his desk looking at documents. When he looked up and saw her, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

"Oh, Xiaobai's back?" He closed the file, leaned back in his chair, and asked, "Did filming wrap up in Huairou?"

Bai Mengyan nodded and walked to the desk: "Good morning, President Jia. I just got back and came to report to you."

"Why are you reporting to us? We're not outsiders." Jia Shikai waved his hand, looked her up and down, and said, "You seem to be in good spirits. I thought you were exhausted."

"It's alright..." Bai Mengyan yawned as soon as she finished speaking.

Jia Shikai laughed: "Alright, I won't waste any more words with you. I have something to tell you."

Bai Mengyan blinked, waiting for what was to come.

Jia Shikai picked up his teacup, took a sip, and said slowly, "From now on, focus on your studies. I've filled your schedule with dialogue and physical training classes."

Bai Mengyan nodded. She knew this; Sister Rong had already mentioned it last night.

"However," Jia Shikai put down his teacup and looked at her, "there's something I need to tell you in advance."

Bai Mengyan's heart skipped a beat when she saw his expression suddenly become serious.

"After filming 'The Lost Tomb' is finished, you will be leaving Lucky Films."

Bai Mengyan was stunned.

The drowsiness vanished instantly.

"……ah?!"

She stared wide-eyed at Jia Shikai, wondering if she had misheard.

Seeing her expression, Jia Shikai couldn't help but laugh: "What's wrong, are you reluctant to part with it?"

"No..." Bai Mengyan's mind raced. "President Jia, I've only been with Lucky Film for a month! Why am I leaving already? Didn't I sign a ten-year contract?!"

As she spoke, her voice rose in pitch.

Jia Shikai laughed at her words and waved his hand, saying, "Don't rush, don't rush, let me finish."

Bai Mengyan stared at him, waiting for him to continue.

"Lin Shen has recently established a film and television production company called Forest Film and Television," Jia Shikai said slowly.

"His current resources, including the 'Silent Separation' series that he helped you with, are all following his own path."

"Lekai didn't contribute much, so once 'The Lost Tomb' is finished filming, you can move to the Forest side, and Lin Shen will personally arrange your work thereafter."

Bai Mengyan was stunned for a long time after hearing this. Then she realized what she meant, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up.

"So..." she tried to suppress a laugh, "it's not that you're kicking me out, it's that I'm transferring to Brother Shen's company?"
