Chapter 8 The Future Mistress of the Pei Family



The capital seems to be particularly cold this year.

Although it didn't snow, the sound of fine rain continued all night long.

When I pushed open the unit door, a biting cold wind blew in like a sharp knife, cutting my face painfully.

Yu Guiwan frowned and subconsciously burrowed deeper into the towering scarf.

"How about I ask my agent to help you keep an eye out for a script that's suitable for you?" This was the third time Yu Guiwan had advised Ji Yuqi, "Why don't you just be patient and wait at home for a few days?"

"You know I can't wait." Compared to Yu Guiwan's worry, Ji Yuqi seemed much calmer. "Besides, I've offended Zhao Qi. For at least the next six months, no director would dare to use me casually."

"But being a stunt double isn't easy," Yu Guiwan said. "Last year, several crews had fatalities."

Yu Guiwan did not exaggerate or exaggerate.

Different from extras.

Scenes that use stunt doubles, except for nude stunts, are always very dangerous.

Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that some top actors, in order to make more money, disregard professional ethics and take on several dramas at the same time. If their schedules clash and they cannot shoot at the same time, they will use stand-ins and then use PS to synthesize them in later stages.

However, this situation is rare.

Most of the scenes that require a stunt double are difficult and dangerous, such as explosions, hanging and pressure, falling from a horse, etc.

Yu Guiwan was scared just thinking about any scene.

Ji Yuqi smiled and said, "It's not that scary. The crew's safety measures are very thorough. Compared to extras, the pay for understudies is three times higher. Don't worry about me, I will protect myself."

Yu Guiwan didn't try to persuade him any further.

She knew that Ji Yuqi was short of money and had a seriously ill son in Country M.

The two went to the open-air parking lot downstairs.

After unlocking the car with the car key, Yu Guiwan opened the door and sat in the driver's seat.

This was the second time Ji Yuqi had seen Yu Guiwan's car, and he was still a little shocked.

The Santara, whose paint has faded severely and has been owned by countless people, has a particularly strong visual impact.

On the way back from the film and television city yesterday, Yu Guiwan said a little embarrassedly: "I bought it online for 20,000 yuan. Although it is a bit worn, it is very easy to drive."

Ji Yuqi sat in the passenger seat.

Yu Guiwan tried to light the fire for a long time but couldn't, and couldn't help but get angry: "If you lose your temper again, do you believe I will replace you?!"

Ji Yuqi inexplicably felt like laughing.

Yu Guiwan had a scene at eight in the morning, and she also had to put on makeup on the set, so the two of them set off for the film and television city at four in the morning.

When we drove to the most central part of the city, it was not yet five o'clock and the sky was still dark, but the wide lanes were already crowded with vehicles.

Yu Guiwan couldn't help but sigh: "People nowadays have such a tiring life. They get up earlier than chickens and go to bed later than dogs. If they don't do their job well, they will be scolded as grandsons."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Guiwan caught sight of a towering, majestic building not far away. She couldn't help but shout to Ji Yuqi, "Qiqi, look, that's the most iconic building in the imperial capital, the Chaebol Building."

Ji Yuqi didn't turn his head to look.

He just stared at the lane ahead.

She knew it was a chaebol building.

No one knows this place better than her.

This was once the most glorious place of the Ji family.

Yu Guiwan glanced at Ji Yuqi and saw that her expression was dull. She couldn't help but wonder, "Seeing the Chaebol Building, you're not excited at all?! I pass by here every day on my way to work, and I still get excited. After all, this is the symbol of the imperial capital's financial power and a symbol of the highest status."

Ji Yuqi's efforts were not in vain.

It’s not that she wants to make the conversation awkward, but she really doesn’t know what to say.

Yu Guiwan muttered to himself, "This building used to be equally divided and jointly managed by the four major families, but now it's the private property of the Pei Group. The Pei family is truly incredible. Qiqi, do you think the future owner of this building will be the movie queen Ning Ruyan?!"

"I'm not sure."

Yu Guiwan: "Dingsheng Entertainment is a subsidiary of the Pei Group. This is a well-known fact, right? Then do you know when Dingsheng was merged into the Pei Group?!"

Ji Yuqi shook his head.

Yu Guiwan said: "The day Ning Ruyan joined Dingsheng, the Pei Group officially acquired Dingsheng."

Ji Yuqi: "..."

"Ning Ruyan must have secured the position of Mrs. Pei, otherwise Pei Yucheng would not have been so reckless and forcibly made an unknown, 18th-tier unknown, into a super star in the entertainment industry. Now in the industry, who doesn't respectfully call Ning Ruyan Sister Yan when they see her?! To be honest, not only the entertainment industry, but I'm afraid that everyone in Country Z is envious and crying. The resources that Ning Ruyan now disdains are all top luxuries that we can't get even if we fight hard for them. Sometimes I think that fate is really unfair. Why is Ning Ruyan's life better than ours as a human being?! Of course, there is one thing that puzzles me: since she is the most beloved baby in Pei Yucheng's heart, why didn't Pei Yucheng marry her for four whole years..."

Ji Yuqi listened silently without saying a word.

Yu Guiwan was talking when she suddenly changed the subject: "Hey, Qiqi, why does that family Tengtu logo at the top of the chaebol building look familiar to me? Ah! I remember it, it's the same pattern on your jade pendant!!!"

"You're mistaken."

"Impossible, they are exactly the same."

"I really misjudged it."

"Yeah?!"

"Um."
