Chapter 118 Getting Better

On the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year, sunlight streamed into the room through the gaps in the curtains. Xu Mengyao got up early and helped Huang Wenrong pack his things, ready to go to the set. As they left, the car that was taking Huang's father to the station had just pulled out of the alley, and his fourth uncle was still standing at the door, watching them go.

"Wenjuan, aren't you going to see your dad off?" Fourth Uncle asked doubtfully.

"No need, Fourth Uncle, Dad and I said goodbye last night. Today is my sister's first day at work, and I'm going to be her assistant." Xu Mengyao replied with a smile.

"Okay, let's set off now, big star and little assistant." Fourth uncle smiled and patted Huang Wenrong's shoulder.

Upon arriving on set, Huang Wenrong was warmly greeted by the staff and quickly escorted to the dressing room. Outside, the crew was busy setting up a snowy scene, simulating the romantic atmosphere of the drama. Due to Tianwang Jifeng's tight schedule, he would only film his scenes with Huang Wenrong on the last day. Therefore, the filming was primarily focused on the lead actress's solo scenes.

Huang Wenrong appeared before the crowd after finishing her makeup, wearing a red coat and a white scarf. Her hair was carefully styled, showing natural big waves, scattered on her chest. Her makeup was fresh and clean, showing a sense of purity and charm, which made her an instant focus on the set.

Zhang Chengli looked at the person in front of him who had been made more beautiful and nodded with satisfaction.

However, the actual filming process was not as smooth as expected. The director repeatedly shouted "cut" and asked for a retake. Every time he called for a stop, Xu Mengyao would walk over and hand her a cup of hot water or tidy up her clothes.

Seeing Huang Wenrong's expression becoming increasingly stiff, Huang Shao said to Zhang Chengli:

"Let's take a break first and let the little girl take her time."

Huang Wenrong sat on a lounge chair with a slightly confused look in his eyes.

"Wenjuan, it seems that I am not suitable for this job. It's too difficult." She said somewhat dejectedly.

Xu Mengyao felt heartbroken when she saw her sister's lost look.

"Sis, it's only the first day, and you're already doing much better than the average person. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to do even half of what you've done. How about this, try to imagine the camera is me, and just pretend you're playing with me."

Huang Wenrong looked up at his sister's concerned eyes, took a deep breath, stood up again, adjusted his mentality, and prepared to face the camera again.

Then, Xu Mengyao found director Zhang Chengli.

"Director Zhang, I'd like to play with my sister later. After all, this is her first time in this industry, so she's bound to be nervous. I might be able to help her relax a little. You can control the angle, and I'll try my best to stay out of the shot."

Zhang Chengli smiled and nodded.

"Okay, little girl. According to seniority, you have to call me uncle!"

With her sister's cooperation, Huang Wenrong quickly relaxed and gradually found her groove. By the third day of filming, she no longer needed anyone else's cooperation to complete the shoot.

Zhang Chengli watched her gradually improve, nodded with satisfaction and said to the people around him:

"That's pretty good, a good candidate. Are you Huang family considering having a big star in the future?"

Huang Shao smiled and replied, "It depends on the child's choice. We have always been a democratic family."

"Yes, you followed Brother Fei's advice and went into the sea. Are you adapting to life in the South?" Zhang Chengli asked curiously.

"It's okay. I was just about to tell you that I have to leave tomorrow, and Jianwei and the others will be responsible for picking me up. I've been here for a few days and haven't seen the male lead you mentioned. You'd better grasp the intimate scenes, because the elders at home will see them." Huang Shao reminded.

"Don't worry, there's still a little girl watching over you after you leave. That girl is not a good person either, and she has some of your intentions." Zhang Chengli teased.

On the last day of filming, the superstar Ji Feng finally showed up, and his appearance immediately livened up the atmosphere on the set.

He greeted everyone very cordially, and his charm infected everyone present.

Seeing Huang Wenrong, he kept praising:

"Wow, Director Zhang managed to find such a pretty girl. This MV is bound to be a hit."

Huang Wenrong was very shy under Ji Feng's praise, her cheeks flushed slightly, and her eyes sparkled with joy. She said softly:

"Thank you, Mr. Monsoon. I will try my best."

Xu Mengyao stood aside, her heart was very excited, she tried to remain calm on the outside, but inside she was

The groundhogs are already calling, so cool!!

Today's schedule was incredibly tight, with a heavy workload and constant scene changes. The protagonists met on a rainy day, reunited in the library after sharing a book, went on a movie date, flew kites, skied, and had a snowball fight... As the seasons changed, they finally said goodbye at a winter airport.

In the final scene, Huang Wenrong hugged Ji Feng tightly, and both of them looked deeply devoted. Huang Wenrong had tears in her eyes, while Ji Feng looked at her tenderly, gently kissed the top of her head, and then turned and left, his back gradually disappearing.

“Click——”

As the director's voice fell, everyone pulled away from the atmosphere of farewell. Zhang Chengli was the first to applaud, and thunderous applause suddenly rang out on the set.

Ji Feng had to catch a flight back home, so he said to everyone:

"Thank you all so much. I'm sorry I have some things to do and need to leave now, but Director Zhang will take me to celebrate with everyone tonight. Director Zhang, don't save me money, just have fun."

"Thank you, Monsoon! Monsoon's new song is a big hit!" The staff at the scene shouted in unison.

Before leaving, Ji Feng said to Huang Wenrong:

"Ms. Huang, it's been a pleasure working with you. I hope we'll have the opportunity to work together again."

Of course Xu Mengyao would not miss the first meeting with the king of pop. She excitedly pulled Ji Feng to take a photo and asked him for an autograph.

As the work was finished, the staff on the set began to look forward to a dinner party. Xu Mengyao found an excuse that she was a minor and declined on behalf of Huang Wenrong.

Huang Wenrong was holding his first payment of 2,000 yuan tightly in his hand, feeling very excited.

"Wenjuan, this is the first money I earned by myself. I'm so happy! Jianwei, let me treat you to roast duck!" She suggested happily, with a happy smile on her face.

Huang Jianwei readily agreed, and the group went to a time-honored roast duck restaurant. Wen Rong graciously treated them all and even packed two roast ducks for his family to take home.

Seeing that her granddaughter's affairs had been completed, Grandma Huang asked to return to Huan City tomorrow:

"I've been out for too long. Now my eyes are better and Wenrong has finished filming. It's time to go home. I can still catch the Lantern Festival if I go back."

Seeing that Grandma Huang was determined, Second Grandma had to let her go. The family members started to get busy. Some called to book train tickets, and some were busy buying local specialties.

The next day, the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren boarded the train smoothly with their bags, as Jianwei and others saw them off.

On the train, the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren lay in the soft sleeper car. The environment was spacious and comfortable, and the scenery outside the window kept changing. The closer they were to home, the happier they felt.
