Chapter 350 Handing him the room key
The final result of the online meeting was a one-month work stoppage, which was the crew's bottom line.
A month later, Lin Xiaoyue joined the crew with a cast on. Some of the more difficult actions were done by a stunt double, and the rest were simply done with close-up shots.
This is the most mutually beneficial solution.
Lin Xiaoyue was very excited when she received the news, and even called Shen Qingshu herself to express her gratitude.
Shen Qingshu told her to take good care of her injuries.
Lin Xiaoyue repeatedly assured that she would not let down the production team and the company.
After hanging up the phone, Shen Qingshu turned to look at Han Mingyu, who was driving, and said, "This Lin Xiaoyue is quite nice."
The sudden storm plunged Chengdu into darkness, with torrential rain pounding against the windshields and the wipers whirring wildly.
The car slowed down very slowly.
Han Mingyu smiled faintly, "You see Jiang Ruomi's shadow in her, but everyone is different."
Calm and slightly stunned.
It turns out Han Mingyu had already figured it out.
"You're the boss, so don't let personal feelings influence your decisions." Han Mingyu's voice was deep, with a touch of the cold indifference of a businessman. "Lin Xiaoyue is ambitious. She wants to be famous, so she won't let go of any opportunity she can seize, including trying to win over the boss."
Shen Qingshu looked at Han Mingyu, "I did pay more attention to Lin Xiaoyue because of Jiang Ruomi, but why do I feel that President Han doesn't think much of Lin Xiaoyue?"
"She's too ambitious."
"The ambition to work hard and strive for better results in an open and aboveboard is worthy of respect."
“Yes, if someone is focused on building a career and being independent, then I certainly admire that.” Han Mingyu turned the steering wheel, and the black Rolls-Royce drove into the hotel’s underground parking garage. “But this Lin Xiaoyue is not.”
Are you so sure?
The black Rolls-Royce stopped, Han Mingyu turned off the engine, unbuckled his seatbelt, turned to look at Shen Qingshu, and raised an eyebrow slightly, "Do you know why?"
Shen Qingshu blinked. "Why?"
"Because she slipped me a room key."
Shen Qingshu: "..."
The air suddenly became quiet.
After a long pause, Han Mingyu chuckled and said, "Why this reaction? Please, I'm quite popular, okay? It's just that you, Shen Qingshu, are ungrateful and keep rejecting me. Ask around about me, Han Ye. I'm a clean-living man, worth hundreds of billions, single with zero scandals. I'm a golden male god that countless women dream of but can't have!"
“President Han is outstanding.” Shen Qingshu unbuckled her seatbelt and opened the car door. “Therefore, he deserves a better woman.”
"I just think you're the best, the most suitable for me." Han Mingyu got out of the car, put his hand on the roof, and looked at Shen Qingshu. "Look how honest I am! I even told you that Lin Xiaoyue had ulterior motives towards me. Shen Qingshu, won't you really consider me? I'm very loyal!"
This wasn't the first time Han Mingyu had said something like this; he'd said it every few days recently, implying that Shen Qingshu was already immune to it.
She smiled, turned around, and walked towards the elevator.
Han Mingyu was used to it. He locked the car and followed her.
...
Weather reports said the rain would last all night, and even a heavy rain warning was issued.
For safety reasons, Shen Qingshu and Han Mingyu decided to stay at the hotel for one night and return to Beicheng the next day.
Chengdu is not as good as the northern part of the city. There is only one relatively formal four-star hotel, and when they came to book, there was only one presidential suite left.
Since they were all acquaintances, Shen Qingshu and Han Mingyu shared a suite. There were two bedrooms, and Han Mingyu gave the master bedroom to Shen Qingshu.
Because of the heavy rain, the two were too lazy to go out and find a restaurant. After discussing it, Han Mingyu called the hotel to have dinner delivered to their room.
When dinner was delivered, Shen Qingshu was lying on the bed video chatting with her children.
Han Mingyu knocked on the door, "A-Shu, dinner is ready."
Shen Qingshu sat up and called out towards the door, "Coming."
Then, she smiled at her two children and said, "Mommy's going to have dinner now, can we talk later?"
On the other end, Xiao Anning asked, "Mom, I think I just heard Uncle Han's voice. Are you with him?"
"Yes, Mom works with Uncle Han."
“Oh,” Xiao Anning’s eyes darted around, “Mom, Dad just called and said he’s coming to see us tonight.”
Shen Qingshu paused, then asked, "Coming to see you? Weren't you supposed to be taken to Nanxi Mansion?"
"No, Dad only said he might come to see us."
Shen Qingshu thought that Fu Siyan must have taken some time to come and spend time with the children, so she didn't think much of it. "Mom knows. Have fun with Dad."
"Mom," Xiao Anning pouted, "if Dad wants to stay at our house for one night, would you agree?"
Shen Qingshu didn't really agree with Fu Siyan staying.
After all, he's remarried now, so what's the point of him staying overnight at his ex-wife's house?
But when she saw Xiao Anning's expectant little eyes, she felt a little reluctant.
Since she wasn't home anyway, Fu Siyan might as well stay.
Thinking of this, Shen Qingshu said, "Mom isn't home, so you can make the decision."
"Yay! Thank you, Mom. Mom, please be careful when you and Uncle Han are out. Xiao Anning loves you~"
Over there, Xiao Nian'an came over and said, "Mommy, I love you too!"
Shen Qingshu looked at her two children and smiled, her eyes crinkling. "Mom loves you both too."
...
At seven o'clock, the black Bentley drove into the Lijiang Villa.
Fu Siyan got out of the car.
He brought some toys and children's snacks, including matcha cake, which Shen Qingshu likes.
Upon hearing the car, the twins eagerly ran out to greet him.
Fu Siyan was carrying things in both hands, so she couldn't hold the child.
Aunt Yun came over, took the things from his hands, and said with a smile, "Mr. Fu always buys so many things every time he comes to see the children; the toy room on the first floor is already overflowing."
Fu Siyan smiled and said, "The child likes it."
Sister Yun smiled and shook her head, then carried the things inside and went into the house.
Fu Siyan bent down, picked up a child in each arm, and walked into the villa.
Zhang Yun, wearing a mask, came downstairs carrying Xiao Niannian, who had just finished drinking milk.
Upon seeing Fu Siyan, Zhang Yun greeted him respectfully.
Fu Siyan nodded slightly, asking casually, "Has A-Shu not returned yet?"
"Mom and Uncle Han went to Chengdu together," Xiao Anning answered quickly. "Mom said they won't be back tonight."
Upon hearing this, Fu Siyan froze for a moment.
Xiao Anning looked at her father, and at that moment, she felt as if her father had turned to stone.
"Dad, what's wrong?"
Fu Siyan snapped out of his daze, looked down at his daughter, and forced a smile, "Daddy's fine."
He said everything was fine, but Xiao Anning felt that her father's eyes looked very sad at that moment.
She felt a pang of pity, her soft little hand grasping one of her father's fingers. She tilted her chin up, her bright eyes fixed on him. "Daddy, are you sad because you can't see Mommy?"
Fu Siyan's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, as if he wanted to say no, but his thin lips remained pursed, and he couldn't bring himself to speak.
Xiao Anning was even more certain that her father was sad. She quickly reached out and touched her father's cheek. "Daddy, don't be sad. Mommy said that it's raining heavily over there and she and Uncle Han can't come back, so they can only stay there for one night. But Mommy will be back tomorrow morning!"
Xiao Nian'an couldn't bear to see her father sad, so she came over and added, "Dad, Mom knows you're coming to see us tonight, and she's already agreed to let you stay overnight."
