Gu Ce got out of the car and saw Mrs. Gu still sitting at the dining table waiting for him.

Mrs. Gu looked at Gu Ce unhappily and said, "Why did you come back so late today?"

Gu Ce did not explain too much and apologized obediently, "Sorry, grandma, I won't do it next time."

Mrs. Gu thought that Gu Ce and his classmates were delayed at school, so she didn't say anything.

Then she announced that dinner was served.

During the meal, the old and the young were still silent while eating and sleeping, and they didn't seem like family at all.

After dinner, Gu Ce obediently went back to his room to do his homework without any communication with Mrs. Gu.

The nanny was already used to all this, but she still asked Mrs. Gu as usual: "Madam, are you going to send milk to the young master later?"

"Yes."

Mrs. Gu pointed to the fruits on the table and said, "Cut these fruits and send them to him, don't tell them that it was my order."

She didn't ask the nanny to do these things on purpose, but she was just afraid that outsiders would think that the Gu family abused their children.

...

A few days later, Ye Yi also joined the crew and started filming. She gave all the company's affairs to Nan Qinwan.

As for Nan Qinwan, Ye Yi really felt that she had picked up a treasure. Nan Qinwan's business ability was really not strong.

After joining the crew, Yang Xin couldn't wait to find Ye Yi: "Now you can tell me what role you are going to play, right?"

Yang Xin has always been curious about what role Ye Yi is going to play, but because Ye Yi didn't tell her before, and she also knew that the director didn't allow her to say it, she didn't ask any more questions.

Now that she has finally joined the crew, as a professional spectator, she must investigate this matter as soon as possible.

Ye Yi looked at Yang Xin hesitantly and spoke slowly: "I'm Yan Ning Zhiyue."

Yang Xin didn't react for a while, but felt that the name seemed a little familiar: "She has the same surname as the heroine I play, is she a character added by the director on the spot?"

Ye Yi didn't know how to tell Yang Xin. She couldn't say that I was going to play your mother, so she could only shake her head.

Seeing Ye Yi shaking her head, Yang Xin was even more confused: "Isn't it a new character? But I remember there doesn't seem to be such a character in the script. No, I have to ask the director."

Yang Xin was determined to know what role Ye Yi played.

Ye Yi looked at Yang Xin's back with sympathy, thinking: Sister, you will definitely regret asking this question.

After a while, Yang Xin came back. When she left, she was still smiling, but when she came back, her face was really not good.

Yang Xin looked at Ye Yi with great resentment: "No wonder you refused to tell me what role you were playing. You are going to play my mother."

Ye Yi was a little afraid to look at Yang Xin, and said guiltily: "I didn't know you were the heroine of this drama."

"I treat you as a sister, and you actually want to be my mother." Yang Xin pinched Ye Yi's arm, but didn't use much force.

"This is just a play, don't take it seriously." Ye Yi let Yang Xin do it to her.

As for why her relationship with Yang Xin is so good, it is mainly because Yang Xin is too outgoing and harasses Ye Yi from time to time.

Ye Yi also likes such carefree and unscheming people, and the two naturally became good friends.

Although Yang Xin is actually a little older than Ye Yi, in daily interactions, Yang Xin's personality is more like that of a child.

Yang Xin actually wouldn't say that she was angry with Ye Yi because she played this role. She still clearly distinguishes between the inside and outside of the play.

However, when Yang Xin learned from the director that Ye Yi played this role, it was indeed a bit unexpected.

Yang Xin was very curious about why Ye Yi chose to play this role: "Ye Yi, why do you want to play this role? The age gap between this character and your own age is quite large. Other people are eager to act young, but why is it the other way around for you? You are really a weird person."

Ye Yi just smiled at Yang Xin's words: "We are actors. Since we can play young characters, why can't we play old ones? I think this is very challenging."

Yang Xin put his hand on Ye Yi's shoulder and said with a smile: "You are such an interesting person. To be honest, you really seem to have become a different person. I've seen the TV series you starred in before, and that acting is really a bit... It really can't be compared with your current acting skills."

"Just think of it as me suddenly getting enlightened."

Yang Xin was envious: "I wish I could get enlightened like you."

"Your acting is also very good." Ye Yi said sincerely.

Yang Xin is really a talented actor, and she has achieved her current status through her own hard work. Otherwise, it would be easy to make her famous with the help of her family's influence.

"What's good about that? If my acting skills were really good, I wouldn't be a runner-up every year." Yang Xin was a little frustrated. She thought she could finally make it this year. Who knew that Ye Yi would come out halfway, and she had to admit defeat with conviction.

"It was just that the opportunity was not there before. You have to believe in yourself. You will be able to get that award sooner or later."

Yang Xin was not a sentimental person. After hearing what Ye Yi said, she immediately revived: "You are right. It's just a best actress. I should have won it long ago!"

The two chatted for a while and were called to attend the opening ceremony.

The director finally announced what role Ye Yi would play.

Originally, the director planned to give the audience a surprise after the show was aired, but now because of the charity gala, Ye Yi's popularity has been rising.

So the director felt that such a good opportunity should be used well.

After the role was announced, Ye Yi was on the hot search headlines again.

The comments under Ye Yi's Weibo post were directly exploded.

Many people expressed their incomprehension.

[What is Ye Yi up to? Others pretend to be young, but she pretends to be old. ]

[I am really speechless. What was the director thinking when letting Ye Yi play this role? Ye Yi is younger than Yang Xin. Are they treating the audience as fools? ]

[I think Ye Yi is just trying to be different. It's obviously for popularity. ]

[But what's the benefit of her playing this role? Is it just for this little bit of popularity? ]

[I don't understand. I really don't understand. ]

[Does Ye Yi want to win an award for this role? If she can play this role well, she has a high chance of winning an award. ]

[Her? She doesn't really think that winning the Best Actress award is awesome. She won the Best Actress award because of connections. 】

There are many opinions on the Internet, but everyone thinks that Ye Yi is not suitable for this role.

But no matter what netizens say, this drama has become popular before it is even filmed.

The director is looking at Ye Yi with more and more satisfaction. This traffic directly saves the money for publicity.

After Ye Yi joined the crew, she was very busy every day and could only occasionally find time to chat with Gu Shichen.

This resulted in her not knowing that Gu Shichen had secretly returned to China.

After Gu Shichen returned to China and dealt with the company's affairs, he went directly to find Gong Shaojiao.

When Gong Shaojiao saw Gu Shichen, he felt a chill on his back. He even began to wonder if Ye Yi had told Gu Shichen about the charity gala.

But fortunately, Gu Shichen did not mention the charity gala.

"Nothing happened during the time I was away, right?" Gu Shichen said slowly while sitting on the sofa, as if he was just asking casually.

However, Gu Shichen's look made Gong Shaojiao feel inexplicably guilty, but he still pretended to be calm: "What could have happened?"

Gu Shichen didn't say anything, but just glanced at Gong Shaojiao lightly: "Yeah."

Gong Shaojiao couldn't figure out whether Gu Shichen knew about that matter. In fact, it wouldn't matter even if Gong Shaojiao told Gu Shichen about it.

After all, Gong Shaoqing was also a victim.

But Gong Shaojiao was worried that Gu Shichen would go to Xu Daiwei to settle the score.

Although he didn't know whether what Ye Yi said was true, Gong Shaojiao still chose to conceal the matter.

Fearing that Gu Shichen would continue to ask, Gong Shaojiao quickly changed the subject: "Ye Yi has joined the crew now, do you want to invest in this drama?"

"No need, I trust her." Gu Shichen knew that Ye Yi definitely didn't want him to intervene. If he invested, then no matter how successful Ye Yi was, netizens would only say that she relied on him.

And just like Gu Shichen said, he believed in Ye Yi.

He believed that Ye Yi would definitely get what she wanted with her own ability, and all he had to do was to support her silently behind her back.

Gong Shaojiao smiled: "You do believe in her. But I don't understand one thing, why do you like her? Daiwei is not as good as her in any way, why did you choose her?"

Gu Shichen's tone was a little unhappy: "She is the best to me, she doesn't need to be compared with others. Since you think Xu Daiwei is so good, why don't you marry her?"

Gong Shaojiao was speechless by Gu Shichen.

He wanted to marry her, but she didn't want to marry him.

Gu Shichen glanced at Gong Shaojiao and then said: "If you like her, go after her, don't learn to be a bootlicker."

"Daiwei and I are just friends, and Daiwei likes you." Gong Shaojiao naturally knew what Gu Shichen meant, but he didn't even have the courage to admit that he liked Xu Daiwei, so how could he dare to confess to Xu Daiwei.

Now the two of them are still good friends. If they say these words, they may not even be friends anymore.

It's good to accompany her as a friend.

If Ye Yi knew what Gong Shaojiao was thinking, he and Duan Huizhou must be classified into the same category. They have figured out the term "spare tire".

Having said that, Gu Shichen didn't want to say anything more, but he still reminded Gong Shaojiao: "If Xu Daiwei does something bad to my girlfriend, I hope you won't come to me to beg for mercy."

Gong Shaojiao didn't say anything because he didn't dare to guarantee it himself.

Gu Shichen didn't expect Gong Shaojiao to give him any guarantee. After all, Gong Shaojiao has begun to help Xu Daiwei hide it from him.

"Daiwei grew up with us after all. I believe she won't do anything to harm Ye Yi." Gong Shaojiao finally couldn't help but speak up for Xu Daiwei.

Gu Shichen glanced at Gong Shaojiao with disdain.

He had already investigated everything about the charity gala. It was Xu Daiwei who drugged Gong Shaoqing.

And Gong Shaojiao, who was obsessed with his brother, actually protected the culprit.

Gu Shichen didn't think that Gong Shaojiao would not be able to find out these things with his ability, but he just didn't dare to find out.

What needed to be said had been said, and now Gu Shichen was ready to settle accounts with the culprit.

Gu Shichen asked Xu Daiwei out at a private cafe.

Xu Daiwei had a bad feeling when Gu Shichen asked her out, but she still went.

"Achen, you're finally back." Seeing Gu Shichen sitting there, Xu Daiwei immediately stepped forward and said enthusiastically.

Gu Shichen didn't say anything, but just looked up at Xu Daiwei.

Xu Daiwei suddenly felt a pressure, but she still pretended to be calm and said, "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?" "

I remember I told you before that you shouldn't cause trouble for my girlfriend again." When Gu Shichen said this, the aura around him turned cold.

"Achen, what are you saying again? I don't understand." Xu Daiwei was still pretending to be calm.

"Do you really think I don't know what you did?" Gu Shichen's tone couldn't be colder.

Xu Daiwei saw Gu Shichen's expression and knew that Gu Shichen must have known all about this: "Did Ye Yi tell you? Shaoqing likes her, what's wrong with me bringing them together?"

Gu Shichen's face turned completely black: "You match my girlfriend with other men, ha, Xu Daiwei, who gave you the courage!"

"Achen, she is really not suitable for you, only I am the most suitable for you!" Xu Daiwei looked at Gu Shichen with deep affection.

Unfortunately, Gu Shichen couldn't bear to see her deep affection.

"Xu Daiwei, this time is a warning. If there is a next time, I don't mind sending you in personally." Gu Shichen got up and left directly after saying that.

After Gu Shichen left, Xu Daiwei's phone rang.

The person who called was her father who was abroad. As soon as the call was connected, he started to scold her: "What on earth did you do! Why did Gu Group suddenly announce the termination of the contract with us? Do you know how much money this will cost? Do you want the company to go bankrupt..."

Before the person on the other end of the phone wanted to say something else, Xu Daiwei hung up the phone directly.

She knew that this was a warning from Gu Shichen to her.

But how could she let Ye Yi go so easily? She wanted Ye Yi to pay the price! !

After Gu Shichen returned home, he was questioned by his mother: "I heard from your brother that you suddenly terminated the cooperation with the Xu family. What are you going to do?"

Gu Shichen said indifferently: "Cooperation with them cannot bring benefits to the Gu Group. In this case, why should we continue to cooperate with them?"

Mrs. Gu didn't know what to say for a while, and finally sighed: "But Daiwei, you grew up together after all. How sad Daiwei will be if you do this."

"What does it have to do with me?" Gu Shichen went upstairs without looking back.

Mrs. Gu really couldn't understand why Gu Shichen suddenly terminated the cooperation with the Xu Group. Something must have happened.

Mrs. Gu decided to find a time to ask Xu Daiwei what happened.
