A pivotal scene about life-changing moments was completed in one take. Originally, there were other scenes scheduled for the morning, but after seeing Jiang Ruo's disoriented state, Director Sun Yao gave him a special two-hour break so he could eat, rest, and adjust before continuing in the afternoon. After thanking Sun Yao, Jiang Ruo headed to the dressing room to change out of his dance costume. He slipped into his usual sweater and jeans, a simple yet comfortable outfit. As he opened the door to…- 178.8 K • Completed
- Jiang Ruo had originally planned to arrange another room for Xi Yufeng. Assuming that he was too accustomed to being the boss and wouldn't handle such trivial tasks, Jiang Ruo suggested, "If it's inconvenient, I can help you check-in?" Standing at the door, Xi Yufeng said, "There's no inconvenience. However, if we open another room, it might lead to some unsavory rumors tomorrow." Once again, Jiang Ruo fell silent. After a while, he asked, "How did you know..." "I heard about it." There was…

- Compared to the fervent rumors spreading outside, Jiang Ruo's reaction was almost indifferent, as if it didn't concern him at all. The rumors were half-truths, and since they weren't anything glorious, there was no way he could publicly refute them. Besides, they couldn't cause any real harm. No matter how nasty the gossip got or how many contemptuous glances were thrown his way, they couldn't drive out an actor who worked hard and never made mistakes from the production team. At the end of the day's…

- Helping others till the end, after seeing off his pesky younger brother, Jiang Ruo and Xi Yufeng took the elevator downstairs together. On their way to the parking lot, they ran into someone they knew - the casting director from the "Orioles" crew, surnamed Zhou. Jiang Ruo had met him during the second round of auditions. Compared to the art-obsessed main director Sun Yao, Director Zhou seemed much more slick. He greeted them with a face full of smiles, praising Xi Yufeng for having good investment…

- "When Orioles Take Flight" was the name of the TV series that Jiang Ruo had gone to audition for. Produced by a new film company based in Feng City, these local projects typically required investment support from prominent local enterprises. Therefore, Jiang Ruo was confident that Xi Yufeng could lend a hand with this matter. He had pondered this all the way here, and now that it was out in the open, he felt an immense sense of relief. He never boasted about being noble; since this had turned…

- Even though he had mentally prepared himself and was confident he wasn't nervous, Jiang Ruo still felt a sense of relief wash over him upon hearing an affirmative response. "How about we meet," he said. "You choose the time." Xi Yufeng didn't object. About half an hour after hanging up the phone, he sent a text with an address, setting the time for the day after tomorrow at five in the afternoon. Presumably, people like them were very busy — billions of assets changing hands every minute — and…

- Almost immediately, Jiang Ruo guessed that Zhang Shaoyuan was behind it. Unable to speak openly about it, he could only express his confusion about this "sudden misfortune," hoping the production team would provide a legitimate reason. As an important figure overseeing all the work in the production crew, Zhao Sen had mastered the skill of treating people differently based on their status. He glanced at Jiang Ruo with a mocking attitude. "Are you a proper person yourself, asking me for a legitimate…

- It was a sunny day. This year, Feng City's winter had been unusually long. More than half a month after the Spring Festival, temperatures still hovered around single digits. The sun was a rare sight, and the air remained damp and chilly. After leaving Jin Garden, driver Old Liu was already waiting by the car. Xi Yufeng got in and instructed him to head for his home in the southern part of the city. On the way, Xi Wangchen called, but Xi Yufeng didn't answer. The phone rang again immediately…

- Once they entered the Jin Garden, standing at the elevator entrance, Jiang Ruo was still dazed. The makeup artist, Lin Xiao, who had come down personally to meet him, nudged him with her elbow. "Hey, look over there." Jiang Ruo mechanically turned his head to look. In the direction of the VIP elevator, the gigolo led the girls in front, while Xi Yufeng followed behind. He was still wearing a white shirt and suit pants, with a coat draped over his arm, his hands in his pockets. He still looked…

- When he returned to the rental house, it was precisely two o'clock in the morning. A sliver of light leaked from the crack under the door on the left. Jiang Ruo knocked twice before gently pushing it open, revealing An He struggling to sit up. Hastily stepping forward to press his shoulders, Jiang Ruo helped him lie back down again. From the inner pocket of his suit, he retrieved a neatly folded stack of cash. "Are you at ease now?" An He weakly shook his head. "I was worried about you." "What…
