Chen Jin and Luo Zhen stood frozen in place, their faces burning, wishing they could dig a hole in the sand and bury themselves right there.

That arrogance had vanished, leaving only utter embarrassment and shame.

Meanwhile, the entire He Xi crew was stunned by the unexpected spectacle before them.

"My God... the Gu Group? Is this the legendary status of a top-tier wealthy family?"

"Expert Xia is amazing! President Gu actually sent people to support our film crew in person!"

The lead bodyguard ignored the two pale-faced celebrities, turned to face He Xi's crew, and deftly unfolded an exquisite menu. His tone was unusually amiable, yet his arrogance was undeniable:

"Thank you all for your hard work."

"We have everything from coffee and desserts to Chinese and Western light meals. Just order whatever you want, and we'll deliver it to you shortly."

He turned to the side and pointed to the several brand-new luxury vans: "Teachers who need to rest during breaks in filming can use the vans at any time. The vans are equipped with massage chairs."

"Our CEO Gu also has two professional massage therapists on hand to relieve everyone's fatigue at any time."

The crew of He Xi were stunned and could hardly believe their ears.

They... a short drama production crew with a tight budget, not only have access to the exclusive supplies of a top-tier wealthy family, but also enjoy a nanny van and a masseur?

This treatment is even more luxurious than that of those S+ level big-budget film crews!

The bodyguard looked around and respectfully asked, "Where is Miss Xia?"

Just then, Xia Zhining, carrying the Pallas's cat she had found after it got lost, walked out from behind the sand dunes not far away.

She was completely bewildered by the sudden appearance of the luxury convoy and the intense gazes fixed on her.

"What...what's going on?"

Xia Zhining blinked and muttered softly, "Could it be that an international superstar has suddenly appeared?"

"Is he here to cause trouble again?"

Before the words were finished, a deep and oppressive engine roar came from afar, like the roar of a wild beast tearing apart the tranquility of the desert.

Everyone looked toward the highway in unison—

A luxurious supercar, entirely black with lines like lightning in the night, sped towards us like a black phantom.

"Holy crap! Did I overreact?!" A knowledgeable photography assistant rubbed his eyes frantically. "That's a Bugatti Chiron SS300! The final price is nine figures!"

"You can actually find this thing on a desert highway!"

Everyone gasped when they heard the price of the sports car!

A sports car worth hundreds of millions was just driven carelessly into the desert; the maintenance costs must be in the six figures.

The sports car came to a smooth stop, its butterfly doors gracefully tilting upwards like mechanical wings.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Gu Huaiye calmly got out of the car, leading Anxing by the hand.

He wore sunglasses and a high-quality light gray cashmere shirt, with the sleeves casually rolled up to his forearms.

Although his sunglasses concealed his eyes, his sharply defined jawline and the powerful aura he exuded silenced the entire film set.

Gu Huaiye strode forward, his long legs carrying him clearly towards Xia Zhining, who was still in a daze, amidst several pairs of eyes.

Xia Zhining hugged the heavy Pallas's cat tightly, her eyes wide with surprise: "Why did you suddenly come?"

Gu Huaiye's lips curved into a faint but gentle smile, and his gaze behind his sunglasses fell on her: "Come visit our famous expert Xia on set."
