"Mr. Lu, the dramas you've chosen are quite in line with the style of modern novels."

Lu Chi laughed and said, "Haha, although it's absurd and melodramatic, I predict it will be a hit."

Lu Chi thought to himself, "Nonsense, in my previous life I read Tomato novels so much that I was completely absorbed and went mad."

What kind of crazy novel haven't I read? Tomato's main theme is madness!

Although this world doesn't have Tomato Novels, there are other novel platforms, and their styles are all similar.

Short dramas just haven't become popular yet.

"Mr. Lu, I'll take the script out and organize it to see what kind of actors we need to recruit. Once that's done, I'll develop a recruitment plan and recruit this batch of actors first."

Lu Chi nodded: "Okay, go and do it."

...

Ugly Country.

The mansion of George R.R. Kahn, the world's richest man.

At the dinner table.

"Dad, Mom, I feel incredibly honored to be back by your side. I thought I'd never see you again in this lifetime, sob sob~"

Qiao Jiyang was eating and talking at the same time, and then he started to cry emotionally.

George Connor patted his shoulder hard, feeling a pang of sadness.

“Son, your mother and I have not been by your side for the past 20 years, and you have suffered so much. Don’t worry, now that you are back with your parents, no one will dare to bully you again.”

Anna's tears started flowing.

"Son, I'm so sorry, I've made you suffer so much all these years. Waaah, my poor son~"

"Dad, Mom, it's nothing for your son to suffer a little hardship and fatigue. What makes your son sad is that I haven't been able to be by your side to fulfill my filial duties for so many years, causing you to worry and fear, and making you sick with longing. It is your unfilial son who has caused you this!"

Qiao Jiyang was in tears, looking pitiful, full of grievances yet pretending to be strong.

When he got emotional, he even slapped himself in the face a few times, blaming himself for not being filial to Mr. and Mrs. Qiao.

His filial and obedient demeanor broke the hearts of George and his wife.

“Oh, right,” Qiao Jiyang said, after putting on a long emotional show, “Dad, isn’t your birthday on the 12th of next month? I’d like to celebrate your birthday.”

George Kang shook his head: "Son, you've been away for so many years, and I haven't been able to fulfill my responsibilities as a father. I don't want you to come and celebrate my birthday with me. No need."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Jiyang said he didn't want to celebrate his birthday. How could that be allowed?

He then said, "Dad, this is the first time your son has celebrated your birthday, so please don't refuse. Let your son fulfill his responsibility as a son and arrange a special birthday trip for you."

"Hahaha!" George Kang was very happy to hear Qiao Jiyang say that, thinking that Qiao Jiyang was particularly filial. "Alright, good son, it's rare that you're in the mood, so let's get started."

Anna, beaming with joy, asked, "Son, how are you planning to celebrate your dad's birthday?"

Qiao Jiyang shook his head and said, "Mom, I haven't thought about it yet. There are still more than 20 days until the 12th of next month, so it's still early. Let me think about it first and see how to spend it in a meaningful way. I'll tell you then."

Anna smiled and said, "Alright, alright, I'll listen to my son."

...

On Saturday, Xie Qing and Su Yunian had nothing to do, so the mother and daughter dressed up beautifully and went shopping together, buying a lot of clothes.

Tired, Xie Qing had two cups of coffee at a cafe and suggested, "It's only three in the afternoon, we still have plenty of time. Honey, how about we go see a movie?"

Su Yunian immediately agreed: "Okay! Let's go!"

"A new movie called 'The First Half of My Life' has just been released. I heard it's very popular. Let's go see it together."

"Okay, Mom~"

The mother and daughter arrived at the movie theater, bought milk tea and popcorn, and waited at the entrance for about 20 minutes before entering the theater.

The movie is very good. It tells the story of a woman who sacrificed her career for love and family in the first half of her life. Later, she was betrayed by her husband and was depressed for a long time. Finally, she woke up and lived the life she wanted.

"Waaah, so touching~" Xie Qing cried her eyes out from beginning to end.

It feels like the character in the movie is based on her, and this drama was tailor-made for her.

"Don't cry, Mom, you still have me." Su Yunian knew her mother was feeling emotional, so she quickly comforted her, "In the future, you can be like the women in the movies, be yourself, and live as your own queen."

"Yes, that's right, live as your own queen!"

To comfort Xie Qing, Su Yunian suggested, "Mom, how about we go for drinks or karaoke tonight?"

Xie Qing knew what her daughter meant and laughed heartily, "Great! Let's drink and sing karaoke!"

As the mother and daughter were leaving the movie theater and heading to the karaoke bar, they suddenly heard a shout: "Oh dear, what a small world!"

Su Yunian looked up and saw Zhao Feifei with an afro, heavy makeup, and holding a man's arm.

The man was dressed in flashy clothes and had a cigar in his mouth; he looked like a bad guy.

These two look like a perfect match!

Behind the two were about a dozen bodyguards.

Su Yunian and Xie Qing didn't want to pay any attention to Zhao Feifei and were about to leave with their bodyguards when they heard Zhao Feifei say again in a sarcastic tone, "Oh, pretending to be deaf! Su Yunian, are you deaf?"

Su Yunian originally didn't want to pay attention to this mad dog, but since he had already called her by her name, if he wanted to be humiliated, then she would grant his wish!

He looked up, coldly staring at Zhao Feifei's flamboyant face, and without warning, *slap!*

A slap landed directly on Zhao Feifei's face.

The force of the slap was so great that Zhao Feifei's face was almost deformed.

"You! You bitch, how dare you hit me?" Zhao Feifei covered her face with one hand and roared angrily.

Su Yunian crossed her arms: "Ha! I'm hitting you! Bitch? Who's the bitch? You, or your mother?"

"Hey Zhao Feifei, how dare you curse people here? News of your mother and you cheating on each other is everywhere, and who knows whose son that bastard Zhao Jinxuan is! With your looks, you still have the nerve to curse people in the group!"

"You bitch, it was you who did this! My once happy family has been ruined because of you. I'm going to teach you a lesson today!"

Zhao Feifei turned to look at Wang Heng, tears streaming down her face.

Wang Heng puffed out his chest, pointed at Su Yinian, and cursed, "You bitch! You can't be a decent person, you just have to destroy my precious Feifei's family! You deserve to die!"

Su Yunian laughed at the insult: "I broke up her family? Zhao Feifei, why don't you tell him that it was your mother who was a mistress and broke up my family? And you're here playing the victim, how disgusting!"

Zhao Feifei never told Wang Heng the truth about her family's situation. Instead, she turned the tables and accused Xie Qing of destroying her family.

"Brother Heng, she's scolding me! Listen to this! She's always bullied me like this!" Zhao Feifei said to Wang Heng in a coquettish tone.

Su Yunian sneered, "Hmph, so you're the only one who can act cute with a man?"

Su Yunian took out her phone and dialed Lu Chi's number.
