Jiang Hua stared at her phone, her face concealing undisguised joy, yet she kept pacing back and forth, her inner turmoil quickening her pace.
She knew Gu Yiming had helped her, and she was debating whether to call and thank him.
Jiang Hua feared that she had made the call because she missed Gu Yiming, so she immediately shook her head to banish the thought from her mind.
"Making a phone call to say thank you won't hurt you!" Jiang Hua muttered to herself.
Jiang Hua felt that since Gu Yiming had helped her, she should thank him to show her gratitude. Gu Yiming's help was not something she was entitled to.
Jiang Hua, who was organizing her thoughts to thank Gu Yiming, was unaware that she was underestimating the situation.
"Thank you..." Jiang Hua rubbed her hair, realizing she couldn't thank Gu Yiming like that.
"You helped me, right? Thank you." Jiang Hua walked to the wall, patted her forehead, and realized that this way of thanking her wasn't right.
"Thank you so much for helping me. I'll definitely treat you to a meal sometime." Jiang Hua then thought that Gu Yiming would eat up all her savings if she did that, so she abandoned the words she had just prepared.
They say you should think twice before you act, but Jiang Hua still dialed the number in a flash.
"Beep..." The sound from the phone made Jiang Hua clench her hands.
"Hello..." came Gu Yiming's slightly magnetic voice from the phone.
"Cough cough... Hello... Gu... Gu Yiming." When Jiang Hua heard Gu Yiming's voice, perhaps because she missed his voice or because she was nervous, she began to stutter.
"So you finally remembered me?" Gu Yiming teased.
"What...what is this?" Jiang Hua's face began to burn with excitement.
"Well, thank you for your help," Jiang Hua said to Gu Yiming casually.
"Hmm." Gu Yiming's answer reminded Jiang Hua of the coldness in Gu Yiming's eyes, which exuded a chilling aura.
"Are you stupid? You're being bullied like this, and you don't even know how to fight back?" Gu Yiming said gently, but he was blaming Jiang Hua.
Upon hearing Gu Yiming's sudden reprimand, Jiang Hua's blush faded, and she suddenly didn't know what to say.
There was silence on the other end of the phone. Gu Yiming continued, "Su Qi's acting and skills are so terrible, how could you let her bully you so badly?"
"Take good care of yourself while you're not with me," Gu Yiming said, his tone softening.
Jiang Hua replied somewhat aggrievedly, "Okay." Her eyes welled up with tears, and she wanted to hang up the phone quickly. "I have some things to do, I'll hang up now."
"Wait, I'll be going to see you soon, you stupid woman." Gu Yiming couldn't help but grin as he spoke of the stupid woman.
"Get ready to welcome me." Thinking about seeing Jiang Hua soon, Gu Yiming wished he could appear by her side right now to protect her.
"What..." Before Jiang Hua could finish speaking, Gu Yiming hung up the phone. "When are you coming..." Jiang Hua helplessly finished her sentence.
"What kind of person is he? He hung up the phone without even explaining himself." Jiang Hua complained to Gu Yiming.
Although Gu Yiming's criticism of him was a bit harsh and his attitude towards him was a bit bad, it didn't affect his pleasant mood.
Jiang Hua breathed a sigh of relief after making the call.
It was lunchtime, so Jiang Hua jogged over to Su Wenwen, who was engrossed in watching a TV series.
Jiang Hua affectionately took Su Wenwen's arm, "Wenwen, let's go eat."
Su Wenwen stopped watching her favorite TV series because Jiang Hua was waving her phone around. She checked the time and replied, "It's getting late, let's hurry up and go out."
Jiang Hua, arm in arm with Su Wenwen, left the house chatting and laughing, quickly forgetting about Gu Yiming's visit.
...
After hanging up the phone, Gu Yiming stared blankly at his phone, a smile he couldn't hide on his lips.
"Achoo..." Gu Yiming suddenly sneezed.
"Ah, she started missing me as soon as I hung up the phone." Gu Yiming interpreted the sneeze as a sign that Jiang Hua missed him because he was going to be with her.
...
A ray of sunlight in the early morning broke through the darkness of dawn.
Jiang Hua picked up her phone and checked the time. It was 5:30 in the morning. Filming was much harder than being a model.
Jiang Hua saw Su Wenwen, who was still fast asleep, and said, "I'll wake this little sleepyhead up after I've washed her."
Jiang Hua tiptoed to the bathroom, looked at her messy hair in the mirror, patted her head, and quickened her washing up.
"Hey!" Su Wenwen's shout startled Jiang Hua, who had just been dozing off.
"Good morning." Jiang Hua rubbed her eyes.
After breakfast, it was much brighter than before.
Jiang Hua and Su Wenwen arrived at the film set early, and the makeup artist began to apply their makeup.
During this time, Jiang Hua started to take a nap.
...
The director, cinematographer, and crew were all in place, and Jiang Hua was on high alert.
"Action!" the director shouted.
Jiang Hua got into character in a second. She and Su Wenwen had rehearsed their lines together, so they were familiar with this scene. Just as they were getting into the mood, a familiar voice suddenly rang out.
"Click." Gu Yiming, dressed in a black suit with his shoes seemingly deliberately gleaming, strode into the area where the filming was taking place.
Some of the bolder staff members began to whisper among themselves.
The director knew that Gu Yiming was a prominent figure, yet he dared not utter a word about Gu Yiming taking Jiang Hua away.
Gu Yiming spotted Jiang Hua in the crowd at a glance and grabbed her wrist.
"Hey, hey Gu Yiming, stop messing around." Jiang Hua's hand was held tightly by Gu Yiming. Jiang Hua couldn't help but feel shy when she remembered Gu Yiming saying yesterday that he wanted to come see her.
Gu Yiming grabbed Jiang Hua's wrist, and when he realized that Jiang Hua was trying to break free, he whispered to her, "I've come to find you."
"Hey, how did you get in?" Jiang Hua asked suspiciously, after all, the film set wasn't a place that ordinary people could just enter at will.
"You came in as a family member of a staff member, why?" Gu Yiming replied.
"Family...family members, brother-in-law?" Jiang Hua heard the word "family members" and her wrist was being pulled by Gu Yiming, causing her heart to pound wildly.
"I told you to prepare to welcome me, Mrs. Gu." Gu Yiming's gentle yet magnetic voice tugged at Jiang Hua's heartstrings, and the blush on Jiang Hua's face made her want to find a place to disappear.
"Isn't this Gu Yiming, the president of the Gu Group?" a staff member said, covering his mouth as someone next to him said.
"Then, what does he want with Jiang Hua?" A group of people gathered around and discussed.
“Hey, hey,” a tall, well-built staff member suddenly spoke up, “Maybe Jiang Hua is being kept by a sugar daddy?”
