Once inside the RV, Xu Yanyu took out her phone and called Director Wei.
Director Wei, who was in high spirits recently, quickly answered the phone.
"Yan Yu! How's filming going lately? Is my senior sister alright?"
I told you long ago that she may look cold, but she has the warmest heart.
She even praised your acting skills to me.
After chatting with Director Wei for a few minutes, Xu Yanyu revealed the purpose of her call: "Director Zeng, what's wrong with Director Yan's health?"
"Oh? You didn't know? Well, that makes sense. Senior sister is such a tough person, she definitely wouldn't tell you that she's sick."
The voice of the director on the other end immediately turned low.
Xu Yanyu heard the sound of a lighter on the other side.
Then Director Wei continued, "Sigh, let me tell you. She has cancer and is currently undergoing chemotherapy."
Xu Yanyu's eyes widened immediately. "What? Cancer?"
“Yes! She had it once seven years ago, and it’s happened again this time…” Director Wei’s voice was filled with undisguised sadness.
"Can it be cured?" Xu Yanyu felt a pang of sadness as she recalled Director Yan's condition.
During this time together, Director Yan treated her very well.
Xu Yanyu also admired Director Yan's character and conduct. If it weren't for the fact that Director Yan's physical reaction was so strong today, she wouldn't have been able to tell that she was sick.
"Who can say whether it's curable or not? It's in the late stage... it has spread to the bone marrow throughout the body... I've been taking painkillers, but I heard that recently even the painkillers are becoming uncontrollable."
Director Wei took a smoke and found a corner to squat down.
"I see..." Xu Yanyu squeezed the armrest, finding it hard to imagine how that frail body could withstand such pain.
"She's too thin; it's hard for her to withstand the strain without any muscle. The doctors all say it's up to fate."
"Yan Yu, after you finish filming this movie, even if you need to lose weight, you can't go too far."
Being a celebrity means looking good on camera, but you don't have the physical strength to handle serious illnesses.
“Mm,” Xu Yanyu replied.
At that moment, Xu Yanyu heard a furious shout from the other side.
"You old geezer, are you out of your mind? You promised me you'd quit smoking, and now you're back on the balcony smoking?"
"Hey... don't pull my hair, and don't pull my ears..."
"Click... Beep beep beep..."
Xu Yanyu looked at the phone screen where the call had ended and shook her head.
She was lying on the sofa when she suddenly remembered something.
She opened the system and asked in a low voice, "Can I draw some cancer treatment drugs from the system?"
"I want to give it to Director Yan Honglian!"
At this moment, a long string of exclamation marks flashed across the system interface, followed by a large red text floating on top.
To protect the host's personal safety and maintain the stability of this world, item rewards obtained by the host from this system are only applicable to the host himself/herself.
Xu Yanyu directly shut down the system interface.
She knew this would happen.
If these material things worked for others, the world would definitely be in chaos.
She could just give any cancer drug to the experts for research, and maybe a cancer drug would be developed.
In the following days, the filming schedule accelerated.
With Xu Yanyu's guidance, Han Meng and Yu Jingya's acting skills are also improving rapidly.
The day finally arrived for filming the second half of the story.
Everyone gathered at the film set early, waiting for the director's arrival.
During this period, everyone has been arriving early in a tacit manner.
Because sometimes they arrive more than an hour earlier than the time scheduled by Director Yan.
If we arrive early, we can rehearse the scene if Director Yan hasn't arrived yet; if Director Yan has arrived, we can start filming immediately.
However, the time everyone had been waiting for had long exceeded the scheduled time, and they still hadn't seen Director Yan.
Xu Yanyu glanced at her phone, feeling somewhat uneasy.
"Yan Yu, why don't you make a call?" Han Meng asked, leaning towards Xu Yan Yu while holding the script in her hand.
Everyone looked at Xu Yanyu.
Xu Yanyu stood up. "Where's the assistant director?"
"The assistant director isn't here either! And there was no notification that today's filming was canceled."
The staff member in charge of the props came over to answer.
Xu Yanyu stood up and dialed Director Yan's number.
The phone rang for a long time, and Xu Yanyu was almost about to hang up when it was finally answered.
"Hey, Director Yan..."
Before Xu Yanyu could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by the person on the other end of the line, "Yanyu, this is the assistant director! Director Yan is not available to answer the phone right now."
Before Xu Yanyu could speak, another voice came from the other side.
"Family member of the patient in bed 67, come and sign this form..."
Xu Yanyu's eyes darkened instantly; the situation they least wanted to face had finally arrived.
Xu Yanyu took a deep breath and said, "Assistant Director, shall we postpone today's filming?"
"Could you send us Dr. Yan's ward information? We'd like to go and take a look..."
"Okay, we won't be filming today. Please tell everyone for me. I've been busy and forgot to let you know."
The assistant director sounded very annoyed.
"Okay, then please remember to send me the hospital address."
Xu Yanyu gave him another instruction.
"Okay, I'll hang up now!"
Xu Yanyu put down her phone and said to everyone, "We won't be filming today."
There was no cheering when Xu Yanyu said this.
Normally, a holiday is a joyous occasion, but everyone is silent at this moment.
Several people even lowered their heads and secretly wiped away their tears with their sleeves.
Han Meng's eyes instantly turned red.
She's not ungrateful; she's grown a lot recently working with Director Yan.
