When Gu Hanyin sat down, her gaze inevitably fell on Mu Fengyin.

Mu Fengyin wasn't sure what the other person meant, so he simply nodded.

"There are no reporters here," Gu Hanyin reminded her.

Mu Fengyin was also peeling eggs at that moment. He paused, immediately understanding Gu Hanyin's meaning—

There are no reporters here, no one is taking pictures, so there's no need to dress up so formally.

He had never worked with this renowned director before, but he had heard some rumors about him. Everyone said that Gu Hanyin was a bit of an artist's neuroticism, had an eccentric temper, and was not easy to get along with.

So even now, when Gu Hanyin says this, he just assumes that the other party dislikes his "traffic-driven" behavior.

Ji Hengyun saw it clearly and just found it funny.

He stuffed the egg into his mouth as well, watching the play slowly as he leaned back in his chair.

The seat next to Cen Yu had been taken as soon as Gu Hanyin sat down, because it was right between Ji Hengyun and Cen Yu. From an outsider's perspective, it looked more like the director was sitting next to Ji Hengyun.

But Ji Hengyun knew that wasn't the case.

He thought to himself with a hint of amusement.

He looked at Gu Hanyin, who usually seemed to have severed all ties to love and longed to become a nun and spend her life with movies. He never expected that she would be tainted by worldly affairs and become "petty and calculating".

When Xie Jinshen walked over, there was no longer a seat next to Cen Yu.

Although there were seats available for Mu Fengyin and Ji Hengyun, Xie Jinshen glanced at them and then looked away.

"Aren't you going to sit down?" Ji Hengyun added fuel to the fire. "Filming will take a while later."

Gu Hanyin had just sat down and of course wouldn't get up. Mu Fengyin had also just sat down and was peeling an egg... If he could, he would have liked to overturn the table and get rid of these four eyesores.

However, he was still somewhat concerned about Cen Yu being there and didn't want the other person to see this "terrible" side of him.

He could only nod to Ji Hengyun and prepare to sit in the only empty seat.

“No need!” Cen Yu immediately replied.

Xie Jinshen looked at him, thinking he was about to say something.

“I’m finished eating.” Cen Yu said, picking up his plate and pressing Xie Jinshen’s shoulder to push him into his chair. “Sit down.”

Xie Jinshen: "..."

Ji Hengyun's desire was even greater. He suppressed the urge to burst into laughter, picked up his plate, and stood up, saying, "I've finished eating too. You can help yourselves."

"Want to go together?" He looked at Cen Yu.

Cen Yu naturally wouldn't object, so under the gaze of the other three, Cen Yu and Ji Hengyun chatted and laughed as they prepared to leave the restaurant.

Mu Fengyin had lost interest in peeling the eggshell at this moment. He didn't like eating it anyway... He frowned at the egg he had peeled so badly, but in the end, he still forced himself to put it in his mouth.

"Excuse me." After finishing his egg, he politely nodded to the other two people, put down his plate, and left the restaurant.

Xie Jinshen and Gu Hanyin were still in the same spot... Xie Jinshen was also preparing to leave, but unexpectedly Gu Hanyin suddenly spoke up, "Does your grandfather know?"

"What, you want to complain?" Xie Jinshen finally dropped his pretense in front of Cen Yu. He looked at Gu Hanyin and said, "Director Gu, it's best not to ask about things that aren't your business."

Gu Hanyin didn't care about Xie Jinshen's attitude at all.

To him, Xie Jinshen was too young... He put down what he was holding, took out an alcohol wipe from his pocket, wiped every finger, and then threw the used wipe into his plate.

"You're making it so obvious."

“Even if I don’t say anything, your grandfather will find out.”

He looked down at his fingers before saying to Xie Jinshen, "The Xie family is not your domain."

"The Gu family isn't your decision-making power." Xie Jinshen immediately bared his teeth, like a wolf cub who had been offended.

“That’s why I said you’re too young.” Gu Hanyin put his gloves back on. He was tall and imposing, and when he stood up and looked down at Xie Jinshen, he was particularly intimidating. “Although I’m not in charge of the Gu family.”

"But no one in the Gu family can control me."

He counted on his fingers in front of Xie Jinshen, "As for you? Let me count..."

"There are at least four people who can keep you in check."

Gu Hanyin looked at the silent Xie Jinshen, "Although I don't know what you want to do."

"But some things are just a matter of a single thought."

...

Xie Jinshen did not appear on set for the next few days.

This unusual behavior even caught the attention of Ji Hengyun's assistant. After spending more time with Cen Yu these past few days, he had also become quite familiar with her... When he saw Cen Yu holding the down jacket herself, he finally couldn't help but speak up—

"Brother Cen, where's your assistant?"

After handing Ji Hengyun a down jacket and a thermos, he couldn't help but ask, "Were you called back by the company?"

Cen Yu shrugged; he didn't know either.

However, the system told him—

Everything is progressing smoothly; Xie Jinshen is almost turning to the dark side.

The movie's plot has progressed to the point where Sun Biao has become mentally impaired, and Qian Aige has discovered Zhuang Ge's bounty and made contact with him.

Zhuang Zemin doesn't need to appear in this part. The two have been in contact by phone, but after he repeatedly stood him up, Zhuang Ge got angry and decided to take care of Qian Aige, that brat.

During this period, Mu Fengyin would wear a down jacket while searching for inspiration on set.

Unfortunately, he was spotted by someone when he went out last night.

His face was so famous that news of his presence quickly spread online, and fans finally figured out where the previously disappeared Mu Fengyin was.

But considering that the other party will not only appear on screen but also produce the theme song, it's not surprising.

Of course, some online groups are also secretly engaging in similar activities.

Today is the last day of Mu Fengyin's holiday. He has to leave this afternoon. During his time on set these past few days, he has indeed gained some inspiration for the theme song.

He already has ideas for at least the lyrics.

Cen Yu's Qian Aige was indeed different from what he had imagined, but she was also Qian Aige.

Mu Fengyin left at night without saying goodbye to Cen Yu, who was still filming a night scene. He only told her to see her when they moved to another location before hurriedly getting into his van.

But before he even arrived at the airport, he received a call from his assistant—

"Brother Mu, something terrible has happened!"

"There's a video online..." Perhaps feeling it was too difficult to explain, the assistant sent the video content directly to Mu Fengyin.

Mu Fengyin switched to a chat application and immediately clicked on the video.

Unexpectedly, the video was secretly taken of him chatting with Cen Yu in the villa on the variety show, and both the picture and the sound were very clear.

'Cen Yu, I've never felt you were like an artist.'

In the video, he was smoking and spoke to Cen Yu with a detached expression...
