Chapter 38 Sleeping Face



"Yiyi, stop looking at it and get some rest today."

While Yan Keyi was reading the script, Jiang Ning was handing over his work.

Jiang Ning didn't realize it when she was busy, but when it came time to hand over the responsibilities, she found that she had actually taken on quite a lot of work.

But now, she can finally take a break.

Jiang Ning still had a lot of work to do. When she turned around, she found that Yan Keyi was still reading the script. She had to finish it because of the tight schedule, but Yan Keyi didn't need to master the script in one day, so Jiang Ning told her to rest first.

Yan Keyi always listened to Jiang Ning, and she had been waiting for Jiang Ning because she saw that Jiang Ning was always busy. But now that Jiang Ning had spoken, Yan Keyi put down the script for the time being.

"Sister, you don't need to work anymore, let's get some rest."

Jiang Ning was a workaholic to begin with, and she only improved a lot after meeting Yan Keyi. Yan Keyi had heard a little about Jiang Ning's "passion" for her work from Lina before. She wouldn't have cared if she wasn't around, but seeing it firsthand, she still hoped Jiang Ning wouldn't be so overworked.

"Okay, Yiyi, you go wash up first, I'll be right there."

She had almost finished dealing with the things at hand, but Jiang Ning didn't like to procrastinate. Since everything was almost done, she wanted to wait until it was all finished before resting.

She figured that by the time Yan Keyi finished washing up, she would be almost done too.

Upon hearing this, Yan Keyi could only go wash up first. She decided that if Jiang Ning hadn't stopped working by the time she finished washing up, she would take away all of Jiang Ning's files, computer, and phone, so that Jiang Ning would have no choice but to rest.

However, when Yan Keyi finished washing up, Jiang Ning still hadn't finished her work. When she tried to take her things away, she was told that Jiang Ning was quitting soon, so she needed to hand over her work as soon as possible.

Yan Keyi was shocked when she heard the news. In her mind, Jiang Ning had always been a very capable person. Could there be things that she couldn't do?

Seeing Yan Keyi's expression, Jiang Ning knew she had misunderstood. She wouldn't hide anything from Yan Keyi, and besides, even if she managed to keep it a secret now, she wouldn't be able to hide it from her when she accompanied Yan Keyi to the film set later, so Jiang Ning simply told the truth.

“Yiyi, I’ve temporarily put aside my work at the company. I told Yang that if we can find a suitable replacement, I’ll resign. If we can’t, then contact me when you need me and I’ll handle it. Otherwise, I’ll stay with you.”

This incident truly frightened Jiang Ning. She hoped that she could have enough power to protect Yan Keyi and allow her to grow freely in the entertainment industry, a place known for its corrupting influence, without being harmed.

When Yan Keyi learned about this from Jiang Ning, she was completely shocked. She really didn't know what she had done to deserve that Jiang Ning would give up the job she had been doing for so many years.

Even Yan Keyi herself didn't know if she could win the audience's favor or achieve success, so how could Jiang Ning dare to gamble everything on herself?

"Sister, I'm not worth you doing this. Please don't do this. I'm afraid you'll regret it later."

Yan Keyi didn't want to see Jiang Ning disappointed and regretful later, so she didn't like Jiang Ning doing this.

“Yiyi, don’t doubt yourself. You are wonderful and you deserve it. I know exactly what I’m doing, and I have never regretted anything in my life.”

Jiang Ning herself didn't care about whether it was worth it or not for Yan Keyi's sake; she only knew that she wanted to do it.

In addition, her relationship with her parents has now thawed.

Given how much Ms. Zhu dotes on him, she certainly wouldn't ignore him if he asked her for help.

Jiang Ning didn't have this confidence before, but now she has support behind her, which is why she dares to do these things.

However, she would not ask her family for help unless absolutely necessary.

Jiang Ning originally wanted to bring up the Jiang family's affairs with Yan Keyi, but then she thought that if she did, it would inevitably bring up the time when she came out as gay and had a falling out with her parents. She was worried that Yan Keyi would overthink things if she found out, so she kept quiet about it.

However, Jiang Ning told Yan Keyi that her assets were actually enough to support their business. Even if Yan Keyi didn't make money in the early stages, they wouldn't starve.

Only after receiving Jiang Ning's repeated assurances did Yan Keyi gradually relent.

Although she hadn't known Jiang Ning for very long, she could sense that Jiang Ning was a determined and stubborn person. Once she had made up her mind, it was very difficult for others to change her mind.

Besides, they've already been working so hard. If they were to say now that Jiang Ning isn't going to leave, wouldn't all their previous efforts have been in vain?

In the end, Yan Keyi had no choice but to agree to Jiang Ning's approach.

However, precisely because Jiang Ning made such a great sacrifice for her, Yan Keyi must work even harder to succeed and never let Jiang Ning down.

Yan Keyi thought to herself.

"Sister, you go ahead and do your work. I'll just watch over you. We can rest together when you're done."

Jiang Ning is a stubborn person, and so is Yan Keyi. She made these decisions for herself, so Yan Keyi also wants to stay by Jiang Ning's side.

Jiang Ning knew that if she didn't agree, Yan Keyi would definitely be unhappy. So she let Yan Keyi sit beside her and watch.

When he gets busy, Jiang Ning really can't pay attention to other things. In addition, Yan Keyi is always quiet and doesn't make a sound. Only when Jiang Ning looks up can he meet Yan Keyi's eyes—she is always staring at him intently.

When Jiang Ning finished his work, he found that Yan Keyi had fallen asleep on the table.

Looking at the sleeping Yan Keyi, Jiang Ning felt a wave of tenderness in her heart. She had told Yan Keyi to rest early, but she still didn't believe her.

Jiang Ning used to be known for staying up late when she was busy with work, so staying up this late was nothing to her, but for Yan Keyi, it was really easy to get sleepy.

Seeing that Yan Keyi was already fast asleep, she didn't want to wake her up, so she simply picked Yan Keyi up and carried her back to the bedroom.

Although Jiang Ning wasn't very clear about the specific filming details of the Long Spear crew, he guessed that Yan Keyi must have been exhausted on set. In addition, with what happened today, Yan Keyi was physically and mentally exhausted and slept soundly, so she wasn't woken up.

Looking at Yan Keyi's sleeping face, Jiang Ning couldn't help but like her.

She's so cute.
