A week later, Yi Mu left the Xi family's old house with his luggage.
Before leaving, he said goodbye to the old man, saying that he had to leave the city for work and would not be back in the short term.
The old man didn't say anything, just told him to take good care of himself while he was away.
Yi Mu smiled and nodded, saying, "Grandpa, you should also take care of your health."
Over the past week, there had been obvious signs of something going wrong between Xi Junyan and Yi Mu.
The two rarely spoke, and when they met, they didn't even exchange a smile.
Even though Xi Junyan turned down all social engagements and ate all his meals at home, Yi Mu deliberately avoided him, and the chances of the two running into each other were very slim.
Yi Mu deliberately chose to leave when Xi Junyan was not around, and the old man did not try to stop him, which was within his expectations.
The Xi family only has one direct descendant, Xi Junyan, even though the old man is still satisfied with Yi Mu.
But as long as there is even the slightest possibility that Xi Junyan can settle down and start a family to continue the Xi family line, the old man will seize the opportunity.
Yi Mu had accurately predicted the old man's thoughts, which is why things went so smoothly.
When I arrived at the film set and met with director Li Shan and the other producers and lead actors, I didn't encounter any obstacles.
Yi Mu guessed that Xi Junyan was angry with him. He was such an arrogant person, he could have anyone, so why would he bother to fawn over someone who had shown that he didn't like him?
This is a period drama, and the production team specially built their own filming base.
Construction began a year and a half ago and is now fully completed.
There are only so many people working in the film and television industry, and Yi Mu knows almost all of them, except for some actors.
Coincidentally, the male lead of this drama is Bian Yiheng again.
He won the Best Actor award last year, demonstrating his excellent acting skills. With the support of his studio, he was able to secure an audition and was immediately chosen by Li Shan to play the male lead in this film.
In addition, Yi Mu also saw a familiar face on set, the second male lead who was always running around.
He dressed up like a peacock, asking everyone for their WeChat contacts and taking selfies with them.
Because they would be spending a long time on set, even if some people found him annoying, no one openly refused to cause any unpleasantness.
Yi Mu heard that the second male lead's sugar daddy was thoroughly investigated six months ago.
However, this second male lead was also quite capable, as he soon climbed up to other powerful figures.
Although he's not as popular as Bian Yiheng now, he's good-looking, knows how to act crazy and silly, and is a young actor with some popularity.
But in this play, he was no longer a supporting actor, but an extra with no more than thirty lines.
He had worked incredibly hard to get the role, his goal being to climb up the mountain of Li Shan and label himself as a young actor with acting skills.
Yi Mu still remembers who was the culprit who kept him in a coma for a year in the hospital.
As for the second male lead, he will definitely take good care of him.
Li Shan's work attitude was completely different from that of the previous director. He was meticulous in his work, strived for perfection, and disliked joking around.
Popular young actors like the second male lead often have subpar acting skills but constantly complain about being tired.
Li Shan ridiculed them all for not being manly at all, calling them effeminate.
Yi Mu added a lot of conflict and fighting scenes to the script on the spot. It didn't seem out of place in the plot. He just wanted to mess with the second male lead.
In dangerous scenes, especially those with a relatively low risk factor, the second male lead is always the one who has to take the stunt double.
On the sixteenth take, Li Shan smashed his walkie-talkie and flew into a rage on set, yelling at the second male lead, "Who found this incompetent guy?"
