After Li Tianlei disappeared, Lu Jin rarely mentioned that name to anyone.
“I used to be interested in everything. Whenever I saw a good TV series or movie, I was curious about how they were made, so I always wanted to join the crew.”
"As you know, sister-in-law, the Lu family is very wary of anything related to the entertainment industry, especially Grandma."
"Let alone letting me go to the film set." So she could only find opportunities to sneak out.
Of course, he was caught and brought back quite a few times.
After sneaking away so many times, she gradually gained experience and was able to escape easily even right under the noses of highly capable bodyguards.
Perhaps it was the thrill of this adventure that made her enjoy going to film sets even more.
As she learned more about the film crew, she gradually fell in love with the atmosphere of a group of people making a film, and even began to hope that one day she could become a director.
"Later, I applied for a job as a director's assistant and successfully infiltrated the film crew."
It was at that time that she had the opportunity to meet Li Tianlei.
"Tian Lei was a rising star at the time, and most male celebrities of his level had some diva-like tendencies. Strangely, he didn't have any of those traits and was always humble to everyone."
He won't get angry even if others bully him.
Over time, some artists came to think he was easy to bully and would cause him trouble from time to time.
At times like these, she, the assistant director, would step in to protect him, saying, "Don't you guys need to rehearse? The director is unhappy with the previous scenes. Should I go and tell you what you're doing?"
Although the assistant director didn't hold a high position, they could speak directly with the director, and they also discovered that this young girl named Chen Jin was not someone to be trifled with; she seemed fearless of anything.
She seems to disregard all celebrities, regardless of their level.
Some people speculated that she must have powerful connections, but no one could find out after a long investigation.
"We're leaving now." After the artists left, Lu Jin began to "lecture" Li Tianlei.
"You need to be more assertive next time, otherwise they'll all think you're easy to bully."
Several times she saw those artists bully him because of their seniority, and he just stood there happily doing their bidding.
How could such a big, clumsy guy manage without her by his side?
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Li Tianlei smiled as he looked at the little girl who always came to his rescue, thinking she was prettier than any of the stars in the film crew.
"Sorry, Tianlei, I'm late. I just heard from the crew that you're alright." Ran Jie's forehead was covered in sweat when he came in, clearly indicating that he had rushed back.
Li Tianlei shook his head at him, "I'm fine, cousin. It's all thanks to Xiao Jin for helping me."
Ran Jie quickly thanked Lu Jin again and again.
Lu Jin waved his hand casually, "It's nothing. I'll keep an eye on your artists while you're not around."
At that time, she, Li Tianlei, and Ran Jie often spent time together, and Ran Jie was not as famous as she is now.
The three of them were like partners who huddled together for warmth.
"And then what happened?" Hearing Lu Jin say this, Jian Ruoxi could imagine how close they used to be, and what exactly happened to make Ran Jie say such harsh words to Lu Jin.
And that Li Tianlei, I've never seen him before.
"Later, Tianlei disappeared."
As the three spent more time together, the relationship between Lu Jin and Li Tianlei gradually changed. Ran Jie noticed this and was very pleased for his cousin.
I remember once, Li Tianlei and Ran Jie were discussing work.
Li Tianlei couldn't help but laugh out loud, which drew teasing from Ran Jie, "Did you think of some lines or the plot? Why are you laughing so happily?"
"Cousin, do you know what my favorite thing is?"
Ran Jie sat opposite him. "Of course I know. My favorite thing is acting, otherwise my cousin wouldn't have stayed with you all this time."
"I discovered that I have other hobbies besides acting."
He followed Li Tianlei's gaze and saw Lu Jin carrying a steaming hot breakfast in.
"I knew you hadn't eaten. I just bought some food, it's still warm. Eat up!"
Ran Jie took the things from her hand and said, "Thank you, future great director."
Li Tianlei held her hand tightly, saying, "Your hands are so cold, warm them up quickly."
He snatched the hot soy milk directly from Ran Jie's hand and let Lu Jin warm his hands first.
"Can you two stop showing off your love in front of me? I haven't even had a sip yet."
All three of them originally thought that life would continue like this, and Lu Jin was also confident in his excellent concealment skills.
But in the end, Lu Shen still found out.
"Did Lu Shen take you away?" Jian Ruoxi guessed that if Lu Shen knew about this, he probably wouldn't allow his sister to work on the film set.
After all, he had given her the same strict orders before.
"No, after my brother found out what I was doing outside, he didn't take me back directly. Instead, he told the director about my identity and asked him to take good care of me."
In this respect, she was still grateful to her older brother.
Because of the grudges of the previous generation, the Lu family has always kept quiet about the entertainment industry, and the grandmother especially despises it.
If Grandma finds out, things will be unimaginable.
"He would actually do that?" This surprised Jian Ruoxi.
When the old lady asked him to give up acting before, Lu Shenke didn't say anything.
“Sister-in-law, my brother isn’t actually that old-fashioned.” Lu Jin could tell from Jian Ruoxi’s expression that she was thinking about what had happened before.
"He probably asked you to leave the entertainment industry because of Grandma's health."
"According to him, he does not look down on work in the entertainment industry."
With her elder brother's protection, she was able to spend more time with Tianlei.
However, her older brother revealing her identity still had some impact.
At least the once strict director became very polite to her later on, and he listened to whatever Lu Jin said, following behind her like a lackey.
Seeing that even the director reacted this way, the crew members became even more curious about Lu Jin's identity.
This also includes Li Tianlei and Ran Jie.
"At that time, I didn't tell them the truth sooner. I was afraid that if they knew my true identity, they would look down on me as a rich girl."
"Xiao Jin, you are a young lady of the Lu family, and you are so outstanding. What is there to feel inferior about?"
Lu Jin seems to have always been like this: capable and charismatic, rising from an unknown director to a moderately famous one.
In her opinion, Lu Jin was already better than many others.
Unexpectedly, even someone like her could feel inferior.
"I used to tell myself the same thing, but what do I have besides being a rich girl?"
