After Fu Shiqin made his stance clear, Ling Jiao stopped avoiding meeting him as much.
He settled into the small apartment that Ling Jiao had prepared. If Ling Jiao finished work early, she would come over for a meal.
The two didn't seem like ex-boyfriend and ex-girlfriend after breaking up; they were more like friends who had known each other for many years.
Yang Shasha's scenes in this drama have also wrapped up.
Since this was her first film, Ling Jiao and the crew held a wrap-up ceremony for her.
After filming the last scene, the entire crew celebrated for her.
Ling Jiao took a moment to see her off and said.
"Sorry, I have filming to do later, so I can't take you to the airport."
"It's okay, I can go by myself. Don't delay the filming," Yang Shasha said with a smile.
Ling Jiao reached out and patted her shoulder, speaking gently.
"You should only have a few days to rest before you start filming a TV series. The company will take care of the post-production and promotion. Good luck."
"Thank you." Yang Shasha opened her arms and hugged her, saying, "If it weren't for Sister Ling Jiao's help, I might never have had the chance to make a living like this."
"I just acted as a go-between; the main thing is that you're hardworking and talented," Ling Jiao praised without reservation.
Yang Shasha looked at her and said with some difficulty.
"Sister Ling Jiao... Actually... there's something I've been keeping from you, and I feel really bad about it."
Ling Jiao smiled curiously, "What is it?"
Yang Shasha glanced to the side and waited until the passersby had left before speaking.
"Actually... Young Master Fu has been having me keep an eye on you and report your every move to him."
"I initially agreed to help because he seemed to treat you quite well, but after spending so much time together, I realized you were actually in a difficult position, so... I felt I should tell you."
...
Ling Jiao's smile slowly froze. "When did this happen?"
"It's just that... I stayed at your house after I got injured," Yang Shasha said truthfully.
Ling Jiao's smile trembled slightly. "Then your move to the opposite side of the street was also arranged by him."
Yang Shasha pursed her lips and nodded.
"Young Master Fu... he might just be a bit controlling, he doesn't actually want to monitor you."
"I understand. You should also hurry up and remove your makeup and head to the airport so you don't miss your flight." After saying this, Ling Jiao, urged by the crew, hurriedly turned back to film the next scene.
However, he just couldn't get into the zone and had to do five takes in a row.
It took more than an hour for them to gradually get back into the swing of things and finish the day's shooting.
She had just finished work and removed her makeup when she came out of the film set and saw Fu Shiqin standing with her assistant.
What brings you here?
"I just finished my IV drip at the hospital, so I thought I'd come over and invite you to have a meal together," Fu Shiqin said.
Ling Jiao shook her head. "No need, I want to go back and rest."
Fu Shiqin looked tense. "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"No, I'm just a little tired from filming today," Ling Jiao said.
Fu Shiqin stared at her for a few seconds, “But you don’t seem to be upset because of the filming, it seems like… something unpleasant happened.”
Ling Jiao paused for a moment, then decided to lay it all out.
"Did you deliberately arrange for Yang Shasha to live across from me?"
Fu Shiqin was stunned for a few seconds. Although he didn't know how she knew, he clearly couldn't deny it anymore at this point.
"Well, I wanted to know what you were thinking, so when she came to me, I just made the arrangements."
