Chapter 11 Chapter 11 Survive

Yan Su's face was blank for several seconds before she digested the meaning of the words of the cold, pale and aloof Buddhist master in front of her.

She and her son both have a connection with the Buddha? Invite them to become monks?

Yan Su laughed in her heart, leaned back, and quickly took two steps back while holding her son, away from the Buddha.

In the original owner's memory, Lingyin Temple was a very popular temple, well-known throughout the country and even the world. He didn't expect that it would be so short of people.

Not only did he want to trick her into becoming a nun, he even didn't let a three-year-old kid go.

Besides, becoming a monk? You can’t even eat meat, and your life will be miserable every day. It’s impossible to live like this.

Xie Ting looked at Yan Su, then at Dandan, his eyes switching back and forth between their faces. He became more and more excited as he looked, his eyes gradually shining.

He originally thought that Wen Muchan, the sickly Wen family member who looked like he might go to see the Buddha at any time, had a good-looking face.

I never expected it, I never expected that there is always someone better than you, this mother and son in front of me are the ones with really good looks, they are God's favorites.

They must be brought into the big family of Lingyin Temple.

Xie Ting's voice trembled, "Ms. Yan, I..."

"Xie Ting!"

Director Chen interrupted him and forcefully inserted himself between Xie Ting and Yan Su.

Xie Ting was looking at Yan Su and her son eagerly.

Looking at the two of them, his eyes felt so comfortable and his whole body felt relaxed.

Suddenly, an enlarged old face blocked his view, coming straight in front of him and firmly occupying all his sight.

Xie Ting was startled, his eyes instantly stung. He took a few steps back, and said with lingering fear, "Old Chen, what are you doing?"

Director Chen was angry. How dare he ask him what?

He quickly waved his hand, "The ceremony is over, go, go, go quickly."

Want to poach his employees? Dream on!

"Old Chen," Xie Ting grabbed Director Chen's hand. "Listen to me. We're good friends. I've always supported your dream of becoming a great director and winning awards, but your vision is really poor. Especially with this drama you're about to film. The script looks like it's going to be a drama that reaches new heights of insanity. Old Chen, listen to me. It's time to turn back."

He earnestly advised: "When a dream is clearly beyond reality and cannot be achieved, you must give up in time and try to reconcile with yourself and the world."

Director Chen: “???”

Xie Ting's tone changed. "Especially, we must not let Yan Su and her son's future be affected by you."

Director Chen was so angry that he almost vomited blood on the spot.

Not only did they try to steal his Iron-Blooded Warrior, they also went so far as to attack him personally and belittle his masterpiece.

Friendships regardless of age difference, close friends, are nothing in front of the Iron-blooded Warrior.

Director Chen clutched his chest and said, "Someone, someone, please come quickly."

Seeing his uncle's face flushed with anger, Lin Qi glared at him and said angrily, "No one can bully my uncle!"

He ran over and grabbed Xie Ting's arm tightly.

The cameraman from the crew also ran over in a panic and grabbed Xie Ting's other arm.

The two men lifted Xie Ting up.

Director Chen: "...carry him away, quickly carry him away."

The ship of their friendship was already in jeopardy. Lin Qi and the cameraman immediately picked up Xie Ting and dragged him out.

Xie Ting finally saw Yan Su and her son again.

He stretched out his hand and called out, "Ms. Yan, Ms. Yan, if you ever decide to become a nun, please come find me. The gate of Lingyin Temple will always be open to you..."

Seeing how hard he worked, Yan Su remembered his KPI and didn't forget to recruit people to the temple even after being taken away. She once again lamented how bad the current employment environment was and how difficult it was to make money.

Xie Ting looked at Director Chen again: "Old Chen, I will definitely come back!"

Director Chen's face darkened a few shades again, and it couldn't be any darker.

When the remaining five young monks saw their eldest brother being carried away, they subconsciously wanted to step forward to help.

But when they glanced at Director Chen, they found that his face was dark, as if he would go crazy and hit someone in the next second. They quickly picked up their tools and went to chase after the eldest brother.

The people around him watched helplessly as Qingleng Fuzi, a handsome guy, quickly turned from aloof and cold into a fool, and their hearts were broken into pieces.

"What are you all standing here for?" Director Chen yelled, "Work, get to work!"

The huge crowd dispersed at once, and everyone quickly returned to their workstations, lowering their heads and getting back to work within a second.

Yan Su touched her son's head and whispered, "Son, next time you see people wearing clothes like those six uncles and with bald heads, you must be alert and don't be fooled by them.

Dandan nodded seriously and whispered take care, "I know, Mom."

Yan Su breathed a sigh of relief.

Thinking of how Xie Ting tried hard to persuade her and her son to become monks for the sake of KPI, and even went so far as to "fall out" with his old friend Director Chen, she once again felt that it was not easy for working people.

Alas, it is not easy to work and make money, so she has to cherish every job. She has to earn every penny she can and make a living.

After thinking of something, Yan Su immediately looked at Director Chen.

Sure enough, Director Chen's face was still as black as charcoal at this time, and his eyes and eyebrows hinted at an indescribable decadence and doubt about life.

Yan Su's heart skipped a beat, and her alarm bells rang instantly. Could it be that Director Chen was hit hard by the words of Xie Ting, that cold Buddhist?

Her face turned grim, and she quickly ran over to stand in front of Director Chen, "Director Chen."

Director Chen was indeed affected by Xie Ting's words.

The main reason was that he thought about the fact that he had filmed a total of ten TV series in the eleven years since he started working in the industry, and the online ratings of each of them did not exceed 4 points, but the number of views and ratings were good.

This time, "The Iron-Blooded Warrior of the White Rose Bathed in Fire" was a script he carefully selected.

Director Chen looked at Yan Su who came in front of him, and immediately thought of her performance on the day of the audition. He was very satisfied, but then he thought of Xie Ting's words and couldn't help but sigh.

Yan Su's eyelids twitched, and she quickly said, "Director Chen, I've memorized the entire script. I think it's very good."

Director Chen immediately perked up, "Oh? Really?"

Yan Su nodded and said seriously, "First of all, the plot is full of twists and turns, ups and downs, and it's very attractive."

It's just that the plot is so ridiculous that no sane screenwriter could have written it.

Director Chen's eyes lit up after hearing her words.

Yes, yes, that’s what he felt after reading the script.

Yan Su: "Secondly, whether it's the protagonist or the supporting characters, their personalities are very distinct. Everyone has their own highlight moments in the drama, and the story lines are very complete."

The characters are distinct and the story line is complete. It is a good anti-Japanese drama. The main and supporting characters seem to have super powers. The darts can turn and hit the Japanese accurately, and the bullets are just little brothers who are beaten in front of the darts.

Director Chen's face was already showing obvious joy.

Yes, yes, that's what he thought too.

"Finally," Yan Su said, "the patriotism reflected in the script, and the spirit of the protagonist and supporting characters who risked everything to persevere until the very end for their dreams, are truly moving and inspiring."

Director Chen's face became excited.

Yes, yes, yes, he was deeply impressed and shocked by the steadfast attitude of the main and supporting characters in the script towards their dreams and ideals.

Yan Su made the final decision: "Anyone with a dream is amazing. Director Chen, please stick to your dream!"

So, don’t be discouraged by Xie Ting’s words and give up filming, otherwise my job will be ruined without my pay.

"Good, good, well said!" Director Chen was so excited that he said three good words in a row.

He is worthy of being the iron-blooded warrior he chose, he really understands him too well.

Director Chen's face was filled with emotion. He looked at Yan Su with tears in her eyes and said, "My dear friend, Xiaoyan, you are truly my best friend. I regret that we met too late."

Yan Su smiled weakly.

These days, it’s really hard to get a steady job. I even have to work as a part-time psychological counselor to help my boss resolve his psychological problems in a timely manner.

Lynch and the cameraman carried Xie Ting away together. He then personally stuffed Xie Ting into the car and watched the car drive away until it was out of sight before turning around and leaving.

He ran back in a hurry, eager to take credit to his uncle.

However.

When Lin Qi ran back happily, he saw his uncle and Yan Su having a great conversation, and his uncle seemed to regard Yan Su as a close friend.

Lin Qi choked, his chest felt blocked and stuffy.

It seems that he has no way to kick 50 eggs out of the crew.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Yan Su exchanged a glance with her son in her arms, signaling him with her eyes to perform well. Then she placed her son in front of Director Chen and said, "Director Chen, I see there's a role for a three-and-a-half-year-old newspaper boy in the script. What do you think of my son Dandan? I'll let him act in a couple of scenes."

Dandan stood straight, bent slightly and bowed, and said in a serious voice, "Hello, Director Uncle. My name is Dandan, and I'm three years old. Dandan has always had a dream in my heart. I hope to act with my mother. Please give me a chance, Director Uncle."

Director Chen was in a very good mood when he saw Dandan. When he heard Dandan mentioned his dream, he waved his hand and said, "Don't act anymore. This role is yours. Anyone with a dream is great."

Yan Su said happily, "Thank you, Director Chen."

Dandan also smiled: "Thank you, Director Uncle."

Director Chen's depressed mood had been swept away. At this moment, he was overjoyed and said happily: "Oh, I'm already old, why do you call me uncle? Dandan should call me grandpa."

Dandan immediately changed his tone: "Hello, Director Grandpa."

Director Chen couldn't close his mouth because of laughter.

He didn't know why, but he liked his son Yan Su when he looked at him.

He reached into his pocket and took out a few hundred-yuan bills, stuffing them into Dandan's hand, "Use these to buy some candy."

Yan Su's eyes suddenly lit up.

beside.

Lin Qi: “…”

Seeing his uncle smiling happily at the 50 eggs and her son, who were worthless, he was so angry that his facial features twisted slightly.

…

Yan Su didn't expect things to go so smoothly.

After she successfully helped her son get the role of the little newspaper boy, she stayed on the set and quietly gave Director Chen bowl after bowl of inspirational words.

Only after making sure that Director Chen was fully motivated and would not give up filming did she take her son back to the hotel.

Her filming officially starts the day after tomorrow, and the shooting location is not in the film and television city, so she has to pack her luggage in the next two days.

The mother and son enjoyed the air conditioning and delicious food.

When Wei Jiao came over, the mother and son were watching a rural heroine's struggle drama directed by Director Chen.

"Poor little egg, let auntie take a look."

Wei Jiao picked up Dandan and checked him up and down three times. She only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he was not injured.

She was busy with the two new people and only found out today that Dandan had been kidnapped.

After she knew about it, she immediately put down her work and rushed over. Now that she saw that Dandan was fine, she finally let go of her worries.

Wei Jiao glared at Yan Su: "Why didn't you tell me such a big thing happened?"

Yan Su picked up her son and said with a guilty conscience, "I was afraid you'd worry."

The main reason was that she was afraid that Wei Jiao would not let her go to rescue Dandan alone.

Because Wei Jiao knew that the original owner had extraordinary powers, he still treated her as an ordinary girl.

Wei Jiao stretched out her index finger and gently poked her forehead.

The two of them were so familiar with each other that Yan Su knew what she was thinking just by glaring at her and frowning.

Wei Jiao: "Forget it this time, but if you encounter any problems next time, you must tell me."

Yan Su nodded quickly, and the incident of Dandan being kidnapped was over.

She took out a disposable paper cup and poured a glass of water for Wei Jiao.

"I can't stay too long," Wei Jiao said, taking a few sips of water. "I came here to talk to you about the Orange TV romance variety show."

Yan Su immediately perked up.

At first, she was a little reluctant to participate in the middle-aged and elderly dating variety show, but for the sake of money she could totally accept it.

But now, she knew that Dandan had inherited her special physique, and the cost of raising Dandan would increase exponentially in the future.

Today she witnessed with her own eyes how Xie Ting, a cold and aloof Buddhist, worked so hard to attract new members to Lingyin Temple.

This made her deeply aware that every job opportunity is extremely precious.

Yan Su said seriously, "Sister Wei, go ahead."

Wei Jiao: "At the beginning of next month, the program team will shoot a pilot video to introduce all the participating guests."

She talked about the filming in detail.

"Oh, by the way," she said, "there will be unexpected guests appearing at that time.

Yan Su raised her eyebrows.

A middle-aged and elderly love variety show has a surprise guest? Oh, I don’t know which resourceful old man or woman this is.

…

In a blink of an eye, it was the day when Yan Su joined the crew.

Early in the morning, Yan Su carried her son and pushed a suitcase and got on the crew's special car.

Although Director Chen is a professional in shooting rural and anti-Japanese dramas, he and Director Zheng belong to the group of directors with relatively high requirements, and basically shoot on location.

The next period of filming took place in a mountain forest in the suburbs, more than an hour's drive from the city of Yanjing.

Yan Su got into the car carrying her son, and when she looked up, her eyes met Qian Yayi's.

"snort!"

As expected, she heard Qian Yayi snort again and then turned away.

Yan Su didn't care and just picked a seat to sit down.

People got on the bus one after another and soon it was full.

The car started.

Qian Yayi found that Yan Su was sitting diagonally opposite her, with only one seat between them.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly took out her sunglasses from her bag and put them on, then stared at Yan Su's belly openly all the way.

The more she looked, the angrier she felt, and her heart felt as sour as if it were soaked in vinegar.

Sitting next to Qian Yayi is her assistant Wang Xue.

Wang Xue has been working as Qian Yayi's assistant since she graduated from university. This is her fourth year. Qian Yayi pays her well and treats her very well.

She often heard other stars' assistants complain about being scolded or even beaten at work, but Qian Yayi never treated her like that.

Last year, her mother was hospitalized and needed a large sum of money for surgery. When Qian Yayi found out, she lent her the money without hesitation and later gave her a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan.

Wang Xue is loyal and devoted to Qian Yayi. He always puts her first and cares about her concerns.

Therefore, she noticed Qian Yayi's attention to Yan Su early on.

In Director Chen's drama, Qian Yayi wanted the role of the second female lead from the beginning, but it was snatched away by Yan Su who suddenly appeared in the middle of the show.

Therefore, Qian Yayi must have been thinking about how to take revenge on Yan Su these days.

Yan Su naturally felt Qian Yayi's "passionate and focused" gaze early on.

She felt very puzzled, and after expressing her doubts about what was wrong with Qian Yayi, she put her out of her mind.

…

More than an hour later, several buses slowly stopped.

The mountains and forests here are the filming locations for many film crews, so many homestays have opened nearby.

At this moment, the car stopped in front of a B&B.

The crew had already booked the rooms in advance.

A staff member came out with a big box and said, "Come on, draw lots, and stay in whichever room you draw."

When it was Yan Su's turn, she let Dandan whip her.

Dandan reached into the box and rummaged around, then pulled out a piece of paper and stuffed it into his mother's hand.

Yan Su opened it and saw that she had drawn one of the only two large suites, and it was the one with the best lighting.

"The balls are awesome!"

Yan Su praised, holding her son in her arms and happily picking up her luggage to leave.

"bite."

The elevator door opened and Yan Su walked out, seeing Qian Yayi and her assistant standing in front of a room.

As luck would have it, Qian Yayi drew the room opposite her.

Yan Su glanced at the two of them and then looked away. She swiped her card, opened the door and entered the house.

outside.

Qian Yayi and her assistant also swiped the room card to enter the house.

They were given a small suite.

Qian Yayi thought that Yan Su lived in the largest and best-lit suite, and she was so angry that she turned around a few times and finally sat down on the sofa in a huff.

"Sister Yayi," Wang Xue approached, "Yan Su stole your role. What are you going to do?"

Qian Yayi looked thoughtful.

She has been thinking about this issue seriously and carefully for three days.

Wang Xue glared and offered a vicious suggestion, "Sister Yayi, what do you think? We should put laxatives in Yan Su's water and food to give her diarrhea? Or we can get Shui Jun to spread rumors that Yan Su's acting is terrible and she's always dragging things down on set and getting scolded by the director? Or we can secretly take ugly photos of Yan Su and post them online so everyone can laugh at her?"

Qian Yayi heard her assistant's words and looked at her in surprise. "Xiaoxue, what are you talking about? I'm not some vicious female supporting character in those heroine-leveling novels, sweet love stories, or wife-chasing crematorium novels. I'm a law-abiding citizen."

When Wang Xue heard this, she blinked and immediately retracted the vicious expression on her face. She said hesitantly, "Then Sister Yayi, have you thought about how to take revenge on Yan Su?"

"uh-huh."

Qian Yayi raised her face and said fiercely, "Of course I have thought about it."

She pulled out a bank card and slammed it down on the coffee table in front of her with an extremely arrogant "snap." "I want to be friends with Yan Su. I'll use the excuse of friendship to send her all kinds of food every day, cakes, snacks, fried chicken... everything. I'm going to fatten Yan Su up!"

Wang Xue didn't react for a moment: "...Ah?"
