Chapter 857 Le Yan proposed breaking up
In May, southern Fujian is already in summer, with daytime temperatures reaching as high as 30 degrees Celsius and nighttime lows still around 25 degrees Celsius.
At 5 p.m., a black minivan drove into Jingfeng Town.
The main filming location for the TV series "The Lock on the Sea".
Driving from Mincheng International Airport, the view outside the window was almost entirely seascape.
Seagulls are flying over the sea.
As the setting sun painted half the sky red, vehicles could often be seen driving along the roadside. Upon entering the town, Fu Nian'an couldn't help but take a few more glances at the unique clothing culture of the locals.
Chu Xing sat in the passenger seat. The driver was a local. As a native northerner, Chu Xing was very curious about the local culture of southern Fujian. He chatted with the driver all the way.
The driver introduced Chu Xing to the ethnic history and culture of Jingfeng Town.
Chu Xing listened attentively.
In the back seat, Fu Nian'an seemed somewhat absent-minded.
"The filming location is just ahead," the driver said. "Our town has received government support in recent years, and there are quite a few scenic spots around. I heard that this movie filming is also in cooperation with the promotion of our local scenic spots, which is a good thing. Even now, just filming a movie is attracting some fans. After the movie is released, there will definitely be many tourists who come specifically to check it out!"
Hearing the driver's words, Chu Xing smiled and said, "That would be a great help to your local tourism industry!"
"Yes, we usually rely on the marine industry for a living, but nowadays young people can't endure hardship, so the marine industry is getting smaller and smaller. If tourism can boost the town's economy, that would be a great thing for us!"
"Our teacher Yue is a big star now. She single-handedly made Yue Opera popular before, and I believe she can do it again this time!"
The van stopped in the parking lot outside the town's activity center office.
The driver pointed ahead, "That big shed up ahead is where the film crew usually holds meetings and gathers. The newly built building behind the office is where our village usually entertains distinguished guests. The entire film crew is staying there now..."
Before Chu Xing could get out of the car, Fu Nian'an was already trying to push open the door and get out herself.
Seeing this, Chu Xing hurriedly opened the car door and got out, walking up to him. "Young Master Fu, I just found out that Miss Le is staying in the same building as everyone else. Should I arrange a hotel for her tonight?"
Fu Nian'an raised her hand and glanced at the wristwatch in her hand.
It was already six o'clock, but it gets dark late in the south.
The red glow of the setting sun shone on Fu Nian'an's cold and stern face. His voice was deep and resonant as he said, "Just find a budget hotel nearby."
Chu Xing hesitated for a moment, "Are you sure?"
In Chu Xing's memory, Fu Nian'an had never stayed in a hotel below four stars when she went on a business trip.
Although the town has limited resources, it does have a four-star hotel, but it's a bit far from here, about ten kilometers away by car.
But it wasn't that far, so Chu Xing wondered why Fu Nian'an would choose a four-star hotel.
"Hmm," Fu Nian'an responded faintly.
Chu Xing looked at the driver, "What's the name of the nearest budget hotel around here?"
"It's just at the intersection where we turned in, about a hundred meters away."
Chu Xing took out his phone, "Do you have the hotel's reservation number...?"
While Chu Xing was talking to the driver, Fu Nian'an also took out her phone, opened her contacts, found A Xia's number, and dialed it.
Soon, A-Xia came from the alleyway not far away.
She hurried over to Fu Nian'an, composed herself slightly, and bowed respectfully to greet him, "Young Master Fu."
Fu Nian'an gave a casual reply and asked her, "Is Yangyang filming now?"
Ah Xia said, "Miss Yue is changing her clothes now. There's another night scene to film after dark."
"Take me there to have a look."
"good."
After Chu Xing booked the room, he walked over, nodded slightly to A Xia, and then looked at Fu Nian'an, "Young Master Fu, I'll have the driver take our luggage to the hotel first. He'll come pick us up later when we need to go back."
"Okay." Fu Nian'an looked at A Xia. "Lead the way."
A-Xia nodded and led Fu Nian'an and Chu Xing toward the filming location.
...
In the dressing room, Le Yan came out of the changing room and sat down in front of the dressing table.
The makeup artist came over to help her remove her makeup.
A-Xia pushed open the door and walked in.
Lin Xiangyu unscrewed the thermos cup and looked up at A-Xia, "Where did you go?"
"I'm going to pick someone up." Xia walked over and glanced at the makeup artist.
Lin Xiangyu immediately understood, handed the thermos to Le Yan, and then pulled the makeup artist aside, saying, "Sister Huang, come out with me for a moment."
"Hey? Slow down, at least let me help Teacher Yue remove her makeup..."
"It's okay, Yanyan can remove her makeup by herself. Let's go outside first and talk about it."
Lin Xiangyu pulled the makeup artist out of the dressing room.
Le Yan held a thermos in her hand and looked at A Xia through the mirror, "Is it him?"
Ah Xia nodded, "Young Master Fu knows you don't want to make your relationship public, so I brought him in through a side path, where no one saw us."
Upon hearing this, Le Yan responded softly, "Let him in."
What's meant to happen will happen.
In fact, the fact that Fu Nian'an waited until now to come to us has already exceeded Le Yan's expectations.
...
After A-Xia left, the dressing room instantly fell silent.
Le Yan sat in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the mirror.
A moment later, the door was gently pulled open, and a pair of long legs stepped in.
Le Yan looked at Fu Nian'an through the mirror.
The man was wearing a white shirt and black trousers; he had broad shoulders, long legs, and an extraordinary air about him.
After not seeing each other for a month, Le Yan's eyes welled up with tears after just one glance.
The air conditioner in the dressing room was constantly blowing out cold air. The temperature of 18 degrees Celsius, which usually didn't feel cool enough, made Le Yan feel a bit cold at this moment.
She tightened her grip on the thermos slightly.
Fu Nian'an closed the door and walked towards her.
It had been more than a month since they last met. If it were before, Le Yan would have rushed into his arms immediately.
But at this moment, the atmosphere was clearly off.
Fu Nian'an tracked him down here because she wanted an answer.
Although he had already made this promise during the past unusual month.
But he still wanted to confirm it himself.
Le Yan put down her thermos and slowly stood up.
She turned around, meeting Fu Nian'an's deep black eyes, and said in a calm voice, "I have a night shoot tonight, so I'm short on time, Fu Nian'an. Let's get straight to the point."
Fu Nian'an looked at her, and his thin lips curled into a cold smile.
"Lin Leyan, what reason are you going to use to break up with me?"
Le Yan's breath hitched. She knew she had made it obvious enough, but hearing Fu Nian'an ask the question aloud still made her heart clench.
However, she could not waver, nor could she soften her heart.
It's better to end the pain quickly than to suffer for a long time. It's better for both of them to cut their losses before Fu Nian'an's feelings for her become too deep.
Fu Nian'an stared intently at Le Yan with his dark eyes, a coldness in them that Le Yan had never seen before.
She had always been treated differently and cared for by Fu Nian'an, but when she faced Fu Nian'an's anger for the first time, she was unable to cope.
She lowered her eyes, staring at the ground, forcing back the bitterness and pain in her heart, "I think you've been very clear about my attitude over the past month. I still hope that we can... part amicably."
A clean break?
Fu Nian'an gave a cold snort.
He knew she was saying one thing and meaning another, that she had made up her mind to leave him, and that she was not without sadness.
But Fu Nian'an still felt waves of anger rising uncontrollably in her chest.
Why are you angry?
Is it that I'm angry at her for being so foolish, or that I'm angry at her for always giving up so easily?
Throughout this relationship, it seems that Le Yan has never truly made a firm choice.
He has been pushing and pressuring Le Yan to make a statement.
She wanted to break up, but didn't intend to tell him the truth, preferring to portray herself as a heartless woman who started a relationship and then abandoned him.
She actually wanted to end things between them so abruptly and unclearly!
