Several days passed, and Su Xue was still nowhere to be seen. Su Yun asked where Su Xue had gone, and Liu Xiaoyuan and Su Yu had no choice but to lie to Su Yun and tell her that her older sister had gone out on business.
Su Yun was still young and easy to fool; he easily got away with it by making up an excuse.
However, what really gave Liu Xiaoyuan a headache was, where exactly did Su Xue go?
These past few days, her phone has been switched off whenever I call her, and she hasn't replied to my WeChat messages.
If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have told Su Yu about my relationship that night, otherwise this wouldn't have happened.
But since it has already happened, Liu Xiaoyuan has nothing to regret, because regret won't solve the problem, it will only make things worse.
Liu Xiaoyuan was a little worried about Su Xue because she lacked social experience. If she encountered an ordinary person, she might be deceived but would probably be unharmed. However, if she encountered a cultivator, it would be troublesome.
However, there are no clues now, and if Su Xue, as a Golden Core cultivator, is deliberately hiding, Liu Xiaoyuan will not be able to find her.
The longer it went on, the more worried Liu Xiaoyuan became about Su Xue's safety, fearing that something might happen to her outside. If that were to happen, Liu Xiaoyuan would truly regret it.
"Brother-in-law, where did my sister go? Why haven't we heard anything from her?" Su Yu asked worriedly, sitting next to Liu Xiaoyuan.
These days, because of Su Xue's situation, Su Xue has become taciturn, and she has never smiled.
Liu Xiaoyuan had nothing to say, so he remained silent.
Su Yun and Tan Wanyi returned from school, and Su Yu could only force a smile to greet Su Yun.
Su Yun was very happy. She held hands with Tan Wanyi and skipped around carefree.
"Big brother, my sister is on the news! My sister is on the news!" Su Yun said excitedly as she walked up to Liu Xiaoyuan.
Liu Xiaoyuan didn't react for a moment, and nodded with a smile, but he quickly realized something was wrong. These past few days, he had been busy with Su Yu looking for Su Xue and hadn't had time to be on the news at all.
So, who is this person making the news? Could it be Su Xue?
"Su Yun, which of your sisters is on the news? Tell your big brother quickly." Liu Xiaoyuan asked excitedly, holding Su Yun's little hand.
Su Yun said, "I saw it on Teacher Tan's phone. You should ask Teacher Tan. My older sister is on the news."
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately turned his gaze to Tan Wanyi and asked, "Wanyi, is this true?"
Tan Wanyi took out her phone, opened a news channel, and said, "Look, Su Xue is the headline on the entertainment channel."
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately picked up the phone, and saw the headline read, "Entertainment Newcomer, Instant Fame!"
Wow! Upon seeing this title, Liu Xiaoyuan felt that something was off! Yes, it must be this idiom that became famous overnight. It's no wonder Liu Xiaoyuan had these wild thoughts, but now this idiom has been overused and misused, so it felt strange.
Then, scrolling down, one sees Su Xue dressed in a white ancient costume, looking like a fairy, untouched by the mortal world.
Then there are some reports about Su Xue, saying that Su Xue is about to star in a big-budget period film, and this period film is also a fantasy production, which is said to have cost a lot of money.
Seeing this, Liu Xiaoyuan felt it was unreliable. Su Xue was still an unregistered resident, without two ID cards. The director was promoting her like this, which must have some ulterior motive.
Besides, Su Xue has no acting skills whatsoever. All she knows is to have a cold face and a single expression all day long. If she were to participate in a big production, all the actors would have profound acting skills.
After reading this report, Liu Xiaoyuan already knew Su Xue's whereabouts. This woman had actually run off to the largest film and television city, Hengdian World Studios.
Liu Xiaoyuan didn't know where Su Xue had gone or what she was doing, but now that he knew, he naturally wanted to find her and bring her back.
So Liu Xiaoyuan told Su Yu to stay at home and went to find Su Xue by himself.
The next day, Liu Xiaoyuan took a car to the provincial capital and bought a direct flight to Shudian Film and Television.
This was Liu Xiaoyuan's first time visiting the Hengdian World Studios. After arriving here, he finally saw what was described online: there were indeed many extras. Some of them were waiting there hoping to get a minor role in a movie or TV series, hoping that the director or producer would notice them.
People come and go here, and everywhere you look there are extras trying to make a living. Of course, you can also occasionally spot big stars.
Liu Xiaoyuan came here to find someone, so he went straight to Su Xue as soon as he arrived. He might not know Su Xue from other people, but someone would definitely know the name of the film crew she was in and the director's name.
"Hello, sir, do you know where the film crew of 'The Female Swordsman' is located?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked, grabbing someone.
"Female Swordsman" is the name of the movie Su Xue participated in, and it's a blockbuster with Eastern fantasy elements, costing hundreds of millions of yuan.
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan inquire about clues regarding the female swordsman, the man glanced at Liu Xiaoyuan and asked, "Why are you asking about this?"
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "I am a friend of one of the investors in this production team. I wanted to secretly observe the filming progress of the production team, since I also invested money in it."
Liu Xiaoyuan is a braggart who talks without batting an eye.
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, the other party couldn't help but ask, "Dude, so you're an investor? Can you tell me how much you invested in this 'Female Swordsman' drama?"
Upon hearing the man's question, Liu Xiaoyuan knew that he must know something about the female swordsman film crew. Furthermore, from the man's expression, Liu Xiaoyuan could tell that he was someone who liked to take advantage of others.
Therefore, Liu Xiaoyuan decided to exaggerate a bit to fool the guy. Only in this way would the man tell him the truth.
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "It's not much. I only invested five million in this drama. You know, for investors like us, five million is just a piece of cake."
"That's right, that's right, you're not short of money, not short of money..." the other person nodded hurriedly.
Seeing that the other party had already shown a fawning attitude towards him, Liu Xiaoyuan smiled and said, "Well, can you take me to this film set now? I want to go and observe the filming progress of this film set."
The man smiled and said, "To be honest, investor, I am the director of this show."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoyuan was immediately taken aback. This guy is a director? You're not kidding me, are you? Because Liu Xiaoyuan couldn't see any director-like qualities in this guy.
