Shen Fang and Liu Shishi parted reluctantly. The little girl had been craving Shen Fang lately, and loved playing with him all the time. The reason? Shen Fang would often feed Liu Shishi, just like he did with Liu Shishi, the "Fairy Sister." The two became good friends. Liu Shishi developed a strong liking for this handsome older brother.

Liu Shishi pouted and took Shen Fang's hand: "Brother Shen Fang, come visit me whenever you have time. I've given you my address. You have to come find me after I finish filming, okay?"

Shen Fang patted Liu Shishi's head: "Yes, if you miss me, just call your brother."

"Haozi, hurry up on your part, but we don't need to rush. When you've filmed around episode 40, let Sister Lifang know. We'll film and broadcast the remaining 40 episodes as we go, and do some pre-production promotion."

Ning Hao nodded: "Understood. Don't worry about leaving this to me. Tell Bozi to come over as soon as possible. It's his turn to perform soon, and his absence will delay the schedule."

Shen Fang nodded: "I'll go find Principal Wang tomorrow when school starts. Let's go!"

Cherry and Yao Dazui looked resentful, but Shen Fang wasn't buying it at all. Their attempts to get closer were mostly met with polite, smiling replies, maintaining a distance that was neither too close nor too far. It was like the distance between a simp and a goddess, a distance that made them both very uncomfortable.

On the contrary, Liu Shishi, Sha Yi, Jiang Chao, Hong Jiantao, Yu Entai, and others got along well with Shen Fang and often hung out together. Liu Shishi and Shen Fang, in particular, had a very good relationship.

Shen Fang led Shen Kun away from the "My Own Swordsman" film crew and arrived at Tianhe Airport. They remained silent the entire way...

I got home at 9:30 p.m.

Upon opening the door, they found Shen Lanlan lounging on the sofa, snacking and watching TV. She glanced at the two of them as they entered, then turned back to watching TV.

Shen Fang and Shen Kun were both very puzzled. It was quite unusual for Shen Lanlan to be home at this hour.

"Lanlan, why didn't you go out to play? Why are you staying at home so obediently? This isn't like you at all," Shen Fang said, sitting down next to Shen Lanlan.

“I want to go out too, but I’ve run out of money and you won’t give me any more, so I can only stay at home. Uncle, I’m hungry.”

Shen Fang was speechless: "How did you spend it? We've only been gone a short time and you've already spent all your money?"

"I didn't do anything special. I just went to bars a few times and clubs twice, called dozens of girls, and opened two bottles of wine."

Chen Fang... "Why did you go and call so many girls all by yourself?"

Shen Lanlan waved her hand: "Uncle, you don't understand. The more girls, the better. The girls in Beijing are so pretty. Uncle, do you want me to take you out for some fun? I'll pay, you pay."

Shen Fang shook his head: "No, let's just have some late-night snacks. We haven't eaten yet."

Upon hearing this, Shen Lanlan pouted and said, "You're so rich, why don't you know? Going out to have fun is so boring."

Shen Fang sneered: "What kind of girls are in bars? Even if I were to pick up girls, I wouldn't go to a place like that."

Shen Lanlan pouted: "You're so high and mighty, you're so great. Alright, Uncle, I've given you all my dowry, so please don't lose it. My happy life depends on you."

Shen Fang rolled her eyes at Shen Lanlan: "Enough with the nonsense, let's go order."

Shen Kun poured a glass of whiskey and handed it to Shen Fang, who took it and took a sip.

"Xiao Kun, Wang Haibo and the others will be arriving in Beijing tomorrow. Please help them settle in properly, especially in terms of their living conditions. They've come all this way to Beijing with us, so we can't skimp on them."

Shen Kun nodded: "No problem, it's a piece of cake."

Shen Lanlan came out with her phone in her hand.

"Uncle, someone named Zhang Lan came to see you these past two days. She said she wanted to let you know you're back, but she didn't explain the details."

Shen Fang nodded upon hearing this: "I understand."

"I completely forgot about her, Xiao Kun, why didn't you remind me?"

Shen Kun waved his hand: "I've been having too much fun lately and forgot about it. Besides, all I wanted to do was ask you for money for financing. It's good to let her cool off for a while."
