Chapter 43 Jiang Shunian's Initiative "Fu Yanli, want to kiss?"...
Meeting Fu Yanli's teasing gaze, Jiang Shunian was so ashamed that she wished she could disappear on the spot.
His ears turned bright red as he tried to explain, but he couldn't come up with a convincing reason, so he could only mutter under his breath, "I, I didn't..."
Fu Yanli naturally didn't believe it. His dark golden eyes were filled with laughter, but he didn't immediately agree to Jiang Shunian's request: "Shunian, change it."
"Huh?" Jiang Shunian was taken aback, wondering why he hadn't agreed, and was a little disappointed.
After all, Fu Yanli with glasses is really handsome and charming.
Perhaps because of his profession as an actor, Jiang Shunian's facial expressions always perfectly reveal his inner thoughts, making it easy to tell what he's thinking at a glance.
At this moment, his face vividly displayed doubt and a little disappointment. Because of his stunning appearance, it felt like a sin to refuse him.
This made Fu Yanli regret it again. On that chaotic night four years ago, if he hadn't listened to Jiang Shunian's request to turn off the lights, he might have been able to appreciate Jiang's alluring expression that he couldn't hide.
So later on, the lights were left on eight out of ten times.
Fu Yanli, being mischievous, didn't mention this point and explained, "I left my glasses at the company and didn't bring them home. I'll wear them for you to see next time you come back, okay?"
The slightly coaxing voice sent shivers down Jiang Shunian's spine. His eyes darted around, and he didn't agree immediately, but his expression betrayed him once again.
Fu Yanli's smile deepened.
Jiang Shunian didn't want to talk to Fu Yanli anymore and told Fu Yanli to go find Nuonuo.
Nono is the best; she never says anything that would embarrass her father.
"Daddy, I miss you so much! Have you been eating well lately?" Nuonuo pouted and gave Jiang Shunian a kiss from afar.
Jiang Shunian replied: "I miss you too, baby. I've been eating well. Look, I haven't lost weight."
But Nono seems to have gained a little weight.
Originally, Nuonuo's weight was low, but since returning to the Fu family, she has been eating a rich and nutritious diet every day, and a pediatric nutritionist regularly adjusts her diet according to her physical condition. As a result, Nuonuo is now being well-nourished, her face is fair and rosy, she is even more beautiful, and she has also grown taller.
Jiang Shunian felt a tenderness in his heart whenever he saw Nuonuo.
Nono looked at him carefully and was relieved only after confirming that her father looked well.
As November approached, the weather turned cold. Jiang Shunian's scenes were almost finished, with only one major scene left: he would change into women's clothing, confess his love to the female lead, "threaten" the male lead to be good to her for life, and finally draw away the pursuers for her.
Jiang Shunian looked at the shooting schedule and found that he could shoot Nuonuo's scenes during the day after his own wrap-up night. They could finish filming together and go home without any delay.
As netizens had predicted, the next few days were indeed very eventful. The Qin family's slander and rumors were criticized by the entire internet, and they were even ridiculed as "premeditated rumors," causing their reputation to plummet.
Taking advantage of the controversy, the Fu family released the case filing receipt and also announced that a company employee had leaked work secrets and fled when the incident occurred, but was arrested within half a day.
Sources have revealed that the Qin family was the one who stole the patent.
This farce of the thief crying "stop thief!" made everyone realize how terrifying high-level business warfare truly is.
After that, there were many negative news stories about the Qin family, and the public's impression of the Qin family plummeted.
Qin's stock continued to decline due to these events, even hitting the daily limit down at one point, but Fu Yanli made a fortune.
Just as Qin Guanting was trying to short the Fu family, Fu Yanli retaliated in kind. He was more skillful and made a net profit of over 100 million. He transferred half of it to Nuonuo and the other half to Jiang Shunian.
Jiang Shunian had just finished filming when he saw 50 million yuan deposited into his mobile bank account. He was so shocked that he almost jumped up, thinking there was a bug in the bank.
Later, when he saw Fu Yanli's message, he learned that it was a compensation for emotional distress transferred by Fu Yanli. Jiang Shunian naturally refused to accept it and wanted to transfer it back to him. However, his card had been protected by Fu Yanli, and the daily transfer limit was no more than 100,000 yuan, but the transfer limit was unlimited.
It takes almost two years to go through the process of turning 100,000 times.
Furthermore, Fu Yanli said that if Jiang Shunian transferred money to him, it would be considered as pocket money given to him by his wife.
Jiang Shunian was both amused and exasperated, but could only accept it for the time being. It just so happened that Fu Yanli's birthday was in January, so he could buy Fu Yanli a birthday present.
After that, Jiang Shunian needed to film this crucial scene, so he stopped paying attention to financial news.
As a poor student, he struggled to understand those financial analyses, but he could generally grasp that the Qin family was currently facing internal and external difficulties, and its foundation had been shaken.
Jiang Shunian only has two scenes left. One is when he drug the female lead and makes her fall into a deep sleep. Then he sits in front of the mirror, recalling how the female lead dressed up and adorned herself. His eyes show both the determination to die for the female lead and the reluctance to part with her. It's not that he's reluctant to give up his own life, but that he's reluctant to never see the female lead again.
After the makeup was finished, he walked up to the female lead, Mu Qinglan, and for the first and only time, he reached out and gently touched her face. His voice was soft, but it was filled with deep affection and reluctance: "Sister, you will always remember me, right?"
It is said that a beautiful woman is best appreciated under lamplight. Jiang Shunian dressed as a woman is not at all out of place. In fact, the dim light makes her features even more exquisite and stunning. Mu Qinglan on the bed has a heroic appearance, but she still has the gentleness of a woman.
At that moment, everyone present unanimously understood why girls could like each other, because the scene was so beautiful, like a dream.
Jiang Shunian was completely immersed in the role. He unconsciously burst into tears, then quickly wiped them away: "Sister, I like you so much."
He leaned down, gently pressing his face against Mu Qinglan's palm like a wounded little animal, just like when he was a child. He squinted slightly, feeling the warmth of her palm, and couldn't help but shed another tear in her hand. "Sister, if there is a next life, will you love me?"
Lin Yusong only called "cut" after Jiang Shunian finished acting and looked up.
Even Lin Yusong was drawn into the role.
This is truly rare in his directing career; including this time, it's only the third time.
Jiang Shunian wiped away his tears, and the makeup artist quickly came over to touch up his makeup. Mo Zhen, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but say, "Teacher Jiang, your acting is amazing, especially your eyes. They are absolutely incredible."
It is almost certain that this will become another classic and stunning shot in the future.
It's the kind of moment that can be listed as a highlight of an actor's career.
Ji Linyue, who was on the bed, sat up and gave Jiang Shunian a thumbs up: "Shunian, you are really amazing. I almost couldn't hold back my tears and cried with you. If you were a girl, I might pursue you."
Everyone present laughed.
Jiang Shunian said somewhat shyly, "Thank you for the compliments, teachers."
He wasn't usually so deeply moved by romantic scenes, but he was able to get into character so well today because of Fu Yanli.
Because he liked Fu Yanli, he was able to resonate with Su Yuqing's soul.
After this scene was filmed, it was time for Jiang Shunian and Mo Zhen to have their own scene together.
Because they were being chased by assassins, the guards were all injured to varying degrees. Under the cover of night, the male protagonist Xiao Yunzhan went to find herbs and go hunting.
When he returned to the tent, he suddenly saw a beautiful figure from behind and blurted out, "Qinglan?"
Su Yuqing turned her head angrily: "You can't even recognize me and my sister, do you think you're worthy of liking her?"
Mo Zhen originally had lines, but he suddenly stopped, simply because he was stunned by Jiang Shunian's appearance.
Mo Zhen had always liked Jiang Shunian's appearance. Jiang Shunian was the most stunning-looking man she had ever seen. Especially tonight, he was wearing makeup and eyeliner, which added a touch of charm to his originally clear and beautiful almond-shaped eyes, which really calmed her down.
"I'm so sorry, it's my fault." Mo Zhen bowed and apologized, "Teacher Jiang is so beautiful, I'm speechless."
Ji Linyue didn't leave either, staying to watch. Upon hearing this, she smiled and said, "It's not your fault, Teacher Jiang is truly stunning."
These little incidents were all filmed and can be shown as behind-the-scenes footage later.
They filmed several more takes, but Mo Zhen kept getting stuck. Lin Yusong was about to lose his temper before they finally got a satisfactory shot.
After filming these two scenes, it was already past 11 p.m. Jiang Shunian finished removing her makeup around midnight and was a little sleepy on the way back, but she still made a video call to Fu Yanli.
These days, they've made video calls whenever they have time, and it's become a habit.
"Shunian, were you tired from filming today?" Fu Yanli immediately noticed Jiang Shunian's fatigue.
Jiang Shunian nodded and yawned softly: "I am indeed a bit tired. What time will you arrive tomorrow?"
"We'll set off early, around nine o'clock," Fu Yanli said gently. "Get some rest when you get back."
"good."
Jiang Shunian didn't have any scenes to film the next day, so he woke up a little late, which was unusual for him. He checked his phone and saw that it was almost nine o'clock. He rubbed his eyes and had just finished washing up when there was a knock on the door. He heard Nuonuo's clear and sweet voice outside: "Daddy, open the door, it's Nuonuo!"
Jiang Shunian instantly snapped out of his daze, rushed over to open the door, and was met with Nuonuo's smiling face.
"Baby!" Jiang Shunian happily took Nuonuo from Fu Yanli's arms, hugged her tightly, and rubbed her. "Daddy missed you so much!"
Nuonuo looked up and kissed Jiang Shunian's face: "I miss Daddy so much too!"
Just then, Jiang Shunian's other cheek was kissed by Fu Yanli, who smiled and said, "I missed you too."
In front of the child, Jiang Shunian couldn't say anything and could only swallow his anger. He glared at Fu Yanli, but the other man smiled gently.
Fu Yanli guessed that Jiang Shunian must not have eaten breakfast, so he arranged for someone to prepare it. Jiang Shunian was hungry, so he didn't stand on ceremony and quickly started eating.
This is a habit he's developed recently: eating very quickly. After all, he usually eats boxed lunches, and after eating, he still has to go to filming or read scripts, so he saves time.
"Shu Nian, eat slowly, or I'll kiss you again," Fu Yanli reminded him.
Nono was also worried: "Dad, you can't eat so fast, it's bad for your stomach."
Feeling cared for by the two children, Jiang Shunian subconsciously slowed down and finished her breakfast.
When they arrived at the film set, Nuonuo and another child actor went to get their makeup done. The set was almost set up, and the snow machine was already in place. It was a cloudy day, so the lighting was just right, and they wouldn't need to adjust the lighting in post-production.
Nono's makeup was quite simple; she only needed to wear a wig, and it was done very quickly.
Nono, with her long hair tied in a half-bun, is incredibly cute, but she's wearing patched and tattered clothes and her face is covered in dirt, making her look so pitiful.
Jiang Shunian couldn't resist taking several photos.
Nuonuo has a great memory. Jiang Shunian taught her how to film these scenes last time, and although some time has passed, she hasn't forgotten a thing.
He got into character after only two rehearsals.
The young actress who played the female lead as a child was also very experienced in acting, and the two of them managed to get it right in one take.
This surprised Lin Yusong. Then they moved on to shoot several other shots. Because they were very simple and only existed in his memory, each shot was only about ten seconds long, so the two of them filmed them easily.
The whole shoot took less than an hour, and we were done right away. The results were excellent.
Lin Yusong smiled and took out two red envelopes, giving them to the two children. He also presented them with bouquets of flowers in a very ceremonial way to congratulate them on finishing filming.
Nuonuo, with her high EQ, smiled and accepted the gift, saying, "Thank you, Uncle Director! This show is sure to be a huge hit!"
"Oh dear, that's truly a blessing from King Nuonuo." After filming for the past few days, Lin Yusong is confident that this drama will definitely be good.
But after hearing Nuonuo's words, Lin Yusong became even more confident.
At the very least, the employees of the Fu Group will definitely see it, right?
Fu Yanli was also thinking about this on the way back, and even said to Jiang Shunian with a smile, "What do you think about me sending out a notice for all the employees to watch when this drama is released?"
Jiang Shunian was extremely embarrassed and quickly refused, "Please don't!"
Fu Yanli chuckled softly. He enjoyed teasing Jiang Shunian more and more, and he couldn't help but be captivated every time he saw his lively features.
It was a bit cold that night, and Jiang Shunian was dressed in thin clothes. He was about to film his last scene, which involved falling off a cliff, so he needed to be suspended by wires.
Before filming began, Fu Yanli and Nuonuo, along with their bodyguards, checked all the equipment and even tried it out themselves to make sure everything was in order.
It's no wonder he's so cautious, because the Qin family hates them to the bone, and Xu Nanqiao was once Qin Guanyue's lover. If she were to do something wrong, Fu Yanli would go crazy.
Fortunately, Xu Nanqiao changed her personality after being dumped by Qin Guanyue. She kept a low profile while filming, and was not on set when she wasn't filming. She also stopped causing trouble for Jiang Shunian.
Xu Nanqiao is the kind of person who is very clever. He has lost his backer, so naturally he won't provoke Jiang Shunian, who has a backer. He just wants to take a shortcut, he's not stupid.
When filming was about to begin, Fu Yanli called for a stop and went over to check the arrows of the assassins.
To make the effect realistic, they all carried prop arrows, which looked very realistic but wouldn't hurt anyone. The arrow on Jiang Shunian's body was added in midway through the fight.
But when Fu Yanli examined them, he discovered that some of the arrows were genuine.
But when they checked in the afternoon, they were all props.
Fu Yanli's face immediately turned cold, and the props team members all turned pale as well.
When was this changed?
If Fu Yanli hadn't stopped them at the last minute, and they had fired the shot, and Jiang Shunian had actually been injured, they would have been blacklisted immediately, right?
Lin Yusong was also startled and immediately asked someone to check the surveillance footage and call the police. He even considered postponing the filming, but after discussing it with Fu Yanli, Jiang Shunian decided to film the scene first because the person who changed the arrows didn't need to be investigated; it was definitely Qin Guanyue.
He always does these despicable things.
Since no harm was caused, even if the police were called, the punishment wouldn't be severe. Besides, this matter can't be publicized; it would disrupt filming, and with the Fu and Qin families currently at odds, Jiang Shunian shouldn't get involved.
Perhaps this is Qin Guanyue's purpose, to make them suffer in silence.
But Fu Yanli would definitely not let it go so easily. They dared to scheme against Jiang Shunian; they were really asking for trouble.
After the new props were installed, Jiang Shunian began filming. The extras playing the assassins were a little nervous, but Jiang Shunian promised that he would not pursue the matter if it had nothing to do with them, which reassured them and helped them get into character.
After a scene was filmed without any major incidents, Jiang Shunian breathed a sigh of relief. Lin Yusong also presented her with a red envelope and a bouquet of flowers. The executive producer also arrived and apologized to Fu Yanli and Jiang Shunian, almost bursting into tears.
Fu Yanli is now a household name, the chairman of the Fu Group. How could a producer like him withstand such pressure? He promised to find this person and bring him to justice, and at the same time offered to compensate Jiang Shunian.
Jiang Shunian was also a little scared. Fortunately, Fu Yanli was there, otherwise what if he had really been injured? But there was no need for compensation, he lacked nothing now.
Fortunately, this is his last scene. He will rest for a while after it's over, and won't go anywhere until things calm down.
They returned to S City overnight, leaving an assistant behind to handle the follow-up matters.
Back home, Jiang Shunian had just put the sleeping Nuonuo back in his room when he turned around and was immediately hugged tightly by Fu Yanli.
"Shu Nian, thank goodness you're alright."
If he hadn't been cautious by nature and hadn't called for a stop the moment filming began, Jiang Shunian might have really been injured due to his negligence.
If Jiang Shunian really gets into trouble, he doesn't know what he might do, he might even hire someone to kill him.
"Thank you for protecting me." Jiang Shunian sensed Fu Yanli's emotions and reached out to hug him back. He didn't know how to calm Fu Yanli down, so he could only look up and ask, "Fu Yanli, do you want to kiss me?"
