Chapter 131: Having an Affair

Chapter 131: Chapter 131: Having an Affair

"Zhuang Jie Ning, considering our past friendship, there are many things I would rather not say too harshly, but if you continue to test my limits time and again, I won’t be inclined to show you any kindness," Bian Yue said expressionlessly, her voice icy cold as she looked at Zhuang Jie Ning.

Zhuang Jie Ning’s expression froze momentarily, and she looked at Bian Yue uneasily, biting her lip with a sense of grievance: "Bian Yue... why are you suddenly looking at me this way..."

"Otherwise, how should I look at you? There are many things I haven’t pointed out, because we used to be friends. But if you still want to play dumb, acting as if nothing happened, and pretend to be a caring friend in front of me, I will truly find it nauseating."

In Zhuang Jie Ning’s memory, it was rare for Bian Yue to speak so harshly.

Her face turned a shade paler, disbelief coloring her expression, "Just because of what Shen Jinci said, you think of me this way? Bian Yue, how many years have we known each other!"

"The emotions between people can’t be simply measured by the length of time. You lost your sincerity towards me a long time ago, so why put up an act here?" Bian Yue shook off Zhuang Jie Ning’s hand and strode away.

Zhuang Jie Ning stood there, staring at her hand that Bian Yue had just pulled away, her mood unable to calm down for a long time.

She had also mustered up the courage today to speak with Bian Yue.

Doesn’t she know that their relationship has become deadlocked and beyond repair?

She knew, he was just thinking, Bian Yue is naive, and a few kind words would make amends.

She never expected that a single sentence from Shen Jinci would be taken by Bian Yue as an absolute truth.

Even the former Li Sihe didn’t have such deep credibility with Bian Yue, right?

Zhuang Jie Ning felt something stuck in her chest, very painful and suffocating.

Of course, she had never regarded Bian Yue as a friend. She was jealous of her, wanted to surpass her, or deep down, she even wanted to become her.

But Bian Yue obviously didn’t think so; she completely ignored herself.

The balance between the two was off – to become friends or enemies, all hinged on a thin line.

Zhuang Jie Ning looked unwillingly at the elevator with its numbers jumping upwards in front of her.

She would make Bian Yue regret it, regret her resolute decision today.

Bian Yue had experienced a relatively calm and uneventful period on the film set, with the shooting proceeding smoothly.

Shen Jinci kept showing up on set on time to deliver fresh clothes to Bian Yue, and on one recent occasion, he was spotted by anny leaving Bian Yue’s suite.

anny’s face went pale with shock, and she urgently called Bian Yue, exclaiming, "Did you ask the hotel’s front desk to delete the surveillance?"

Bian Yue didn’t understand at first and curiously countered, "Why delete the surveillance?"

anny thought about the handsome and clean-faced young man she’d seen in the hallway, her voice trembling, "You’re having an affair and keeping a young gigolo; if Mr. Shen finds out, you’re done for!"

It took a long time for Bian Yue to respond, "anny, the ’young gigolo’ you’re talking about is Shen Jinci."

anny wailed and hung up the phone.

Xiangjiang was greeted by the rainy season, and the shooting finally neared its end.

It was said that the crew of "Palace Wall Snow" across the way had quickly constructed a new set and started filming a modern romance.

The script for this romance was penned by the renowned Xiangjiang writer Yao Ai. According to what Bian Yue heard, it was tailor-made for Su Youxue.

Bian Yue wasn’t interested, but anny had gathered all the relevant information and kept babbling about it in front of Bian Yue, saying, "Bian Yue, modern dramas are quick in post-production; do you think we’ll clash in release dates?"

Bian Yue didn’t care. Listening to anny’s incessant chatter, she replied indifferently, "If our releases clash, so be it. True gold is not afraid of fire."

"You really trust Yao Yimin, huh? You think her performance will certainly be a hit?" anny admired Bian Yue’s confidence and commented, "President Bian, you have a great attitude."

Bian Yue smiled and said, "Thank you! Trust in your own judgment, your judgment isn’t bad either."

anny asked for advice humbly, "For example?"

"For instance, realizing that Shen Jinci is handsome. He’s already 28, and still, you call him a ’young gigolo.’"

anny howled again and ran out, covering her face to cry.

Yao Yimin and Yang Shan were going over the final script, and after they finished, they went looking for Bian Yue.

Bian Yue curiously looked at them, "What’s up?"

Yang Shan suggested with a smile, "President Bian, Yao Sister and I were thinking, let’s have hot pot together tonight!"

"How can we eat hot pot in the city center?" Bian Yue spoke softly, "After the wrap-up, I’ll take you there, okay?"

"Nowadays delivery can be made right to your door, they can deliver to the suburbs too!" Yang Shan quickly added, "President Bian, we can order takeout."

The advancement of modern logistics astonished Bian Yue, and she nodded, "Okay, then let’s have hot pot together tonight!"

"I’ll go arrange it right now!" Yang Shan said excitedly.

At night, the film set was deserted, and the three of them ate hot pot under the empty green screen until they broke a sweat.

"President Bian, having you with us during this time has really made us feel at ease. This project has been fraught with difficulties since its inception, leaving everyone uncertain. But with you here, everything is different! You are the stabilizing pin for this crew!"

Yang Shan, having had a little to drink, spoke with animated expressions and bright eyes, "President Bian, if you have scripts in the future, will you still consider me?"

Yao Yimin watched Yang Shan acting carefree after drinking, and pinched her cheek helplessly, "How can you challenge me to drink with such low tolerance?"

Bian Yue remembered the movie Shen Jinci mentioned when he left.

"If there are any movie scripts in the future, I’ll consider you."

Yang Shan’s eyes widened, looking at Bian Yue eagerly, "Really? A movie?"

Yao Yimin also turned to Bian Yue, asking curiously, "A movie script?"

Bian Yue nodded, saying with a smile, "Right now it’s just a vague idea, I’m not sure either, but if possible, I’d like to offer everyone a bigger and broader stage."

Yao Yimin’s eyes were touched, and she gave Bian Yue a smile, saying softly, "Having heard you say that, both Yang Shan and I feel our efforts here weren’t in vain."

Yang Shan rested her chin in her hand, nodding and looking out the window. She pointed to the lights across the way, mumbling, "That Red Mountain Film and Television project is racing against time, working late into the night."

"I heard that Yao Ai writes the script one day and they film it the next, to compress the schedule as much as possible," said Yao Yimin lightly. "Without surprises, it will be aired simultaneously with ’Shengshi Yan.’"

"How much money did Red Mountain Capital spend this time?" Yang Shan frowned, "What’s the background of the lead actress in there that they’re pushing her so relentlessly?"

"It’s said to be... the Crown Prince of Li Family’s beloved, and the project has also received investment from Fengcheng Group," Yao Yimin, whose stature was esteemed in the industry and received news quickly, added.

After speaking, she looked at Bian Yue with concern, "Bian Yue, don’t worry, I have confidence in our project."

"I feel the same way, so let’s do our best and leave the rest to fate; there’s nothing to be nervous about," Bian Yue replied with a smile.

The next moment, the door of the crew was pushed open from the outside, and as the three of them turned to look, Bian Yue’s smile faded.
