Xiao Yue murmured a quick response before answering, “Sis Erlan, don’t tell me you didn’t notice that Cousin wasn’t quite happy the whole day?”


Fang Erlan was taken aback. The whole day?


She really hadn’t noticed.


“Why wasn’t he quite happy?”


“How would I know?” With her eyes half-closed, Xiao Yue muttered, “Sis Erlan, you should sleep soon. I’m sleepy already.”


“Alright, I’ll hang up, then.”


Fang Erlan thought about it carefully. She had not infuriated him, right?


Or was it that he found out about the relations.h.i.+p between her and Yan Ge?


Fang Erlan shook her head. No, he couldn’t possibly have found out about it. If he had, given his character, wouldn’t he have already punished her for it?


Correct, it would have been like that.


Then, why was he upset?


She could not think of the reason no matter how much she tried.


Perhaps because her mind was full of Xiao Chenyang before she slept that night, Fang Erlan even dreamed of him after she fell asleep.


When she woke up in the morning, Fang Erlan sat on the bed in a daze. Thinking back to the dream she had, she felt her face become so hot, it was almost burning.


She had actually dreamed that Xiao Chenyang was bathing in a huge stream and that she was actually peeping at him.


She could not believe that she was so dirty-minded in her dream.


It made her exceptionally ashamed of herself.


However, dreams were indeed the opposite of reality, as she would have never taken a single glance even if Xiao Chenyang were to strip himself naked in front of her in reality!


Taking a look at the time, she saw that it was already past six in the morning.


She hurriedly went to doll herself up before going out for breakfast.


When she reached the cafeteria, Yan Ge and his a.s.sistant Xiao Li, as well as his bodyguards, were already eating. Seeing her enter, he unknowingly grinned at her. Fang Erlan darted a short glance at him and hurriedly s.h.i.+fted her gaze away, taking a plate to get her meal.


“Sis Erlan, those four to five girls there are fans, so you’ll have to eat nicely in small mouthfuls later,” Xiao Yue reminded her in a low voice.


Fang Erlan followed her gaze and took a glance at the girls before nodding. “Got it.”


After getting her meal, she sat at a table and started eating. Even though she was originally quite hungry, because she had to take care of her image, she only ate half of her meal before leaving the cafeteria.


A moment after she had stepped into the dressing room, Yan Ge entered behind her.


The fans that were following him were stopped by the crew members of the production unit.


The wardrobe attendant took the clothes the two would be wearing and let them change into it. Yan Ge’s was a set of ancient costume while Fang Erlan’s was a modern day set of clothes.


“The Man from the Ancient Times” was originally about a man who time-traveled from the ancient times to the modern day, becoming the female lead’s sickly husband who had died. Today, they would definitely be filming the scenes before the male lead’s time-travel while Fang Erlan would be filming the scenes occurring in the modern day.


As such, the two would not be filming in the same set.


After the two had changed and put on their makeup, Fang Erlan asked him upon seeing his thick costume, “Do you feel warm?”


He replied, “How would I not feel warm? I’m wearing quite a few layers.”


Once his words landed, he suddenly thought of the two men who had been eating at the same table with her earlier. “Were those two men earlier your bodyguards?”


“They were here to replace Xiao Chenyang. He has something on and won’t be here for now. Sis Xiaoning sent those two bodyguards over.”


Upon hearing this, Yan Ge was grinning from ear to ear. “Really?”


“Yes, of course.”


“…”


After their makeup were done, the two headed toward their respective filming sets.


Fang Erlan arrived at a luxurious mansion nearby where she would be filming.


Jing Shui was there as well.


Upon seeing that she was here, Jing Shui took the initiative to chat her up. “I see you’re here.”


“Yes.” Seeing the costume he had on him, Fang Erlan asked, “Aren’t you playing a supporting role as the butler?”


“I changed my role.” He grinned. “I’m now acting not as the butler but as your brother-in-law.”


Fang Erlan was thrown off guard and asked in a low voice, “Who changed it for you?”


“I asked to change it. The role of the butler is not as good as this one.” Jing Shui thought of what his friend had said and couldn’t help but warn her, “The co-director said you’ll be filming a bitter scene today. It’s your mother-in-law and husband’s mistress, whose role is acted by Yu Caiwei, ganging up together against you.”


“I know, I’ve been informed already.”


“No, you didn’t get what I was trying to say…” Jing Shui added, “I meant that you should be careful. Yu Caiwei might make use of her role in the show to give you a hard time. I’ve already heard of the conflict you had with her. She’s someone who’ll seek revenge for even the smallest grievance she had; a lot of people in this industry know this.”


Xiao Yue, who was standing at one corner, couldn’t help but start to worry. “Sis Erlan, you must be careful.”


“Yes, I know. I’m not scared of her.”


Before filming officially started, the actress acting the role of her mother-in-law, Madam Song Chuntian, briefly explained the details of her slapping scene later in a friendly manner. She could tell at once that this actress was a very friendly person in private and couldn’t help but begin to take a liking toward her.


The atmosphere was pleasant as the two discussed the scene, but when Yu Caiwei approached them, it became rather strange for some reason.


“Sis Song, filming is about to start. Why don’t we go through the scenes together first?”


“Sure, filming will be smoother if we rehea.r.s.e it in advance.”


Yu Caiwei darted a glance at Fang Erlan and remarked, “Since all three of us are filming together, you should rehea.r.s.e with us as well.”


“Alright.” Fang Erlan abided by her professional spirit and had agreed readily.


Everything went smoothly when they were rehearsing the scenes.


As such, Fang Erlan thought that when filming officially started, it would be a breeze. Little did she expect that her mindset would be completely overturned.


When the cameras started rolling, Fang Erlan’s character, which was the daughter-in-law of a rich family, had returned home from outside. The moment she entered the house, she saw Yu Caiwei’s character, which was the mistress, and Song Chuntian’s character, which was her mother-in-law, engaged in a friendly chatter.


“Mother, I’m back.”


Song Chuntian snorted coldly, “Where on earth have you been? You don’t even pick up your calls, you still know how to come home, after all?”


“I went back to my maiden home.”


“Went back to your maiden home?” Song Chuntian stood up from the sofa and slowly approached her, exclaiming in a shrill voice, “Your maiden family has already become so broke now, what are you going back there for? Have you taken the money I gave you to help your maiden family?!”


Fang Erlan’s eyes reddened instantly and she whimpered, “Mother… back then, when Zixiang and I got married, wasn’t it a compatible union? Now that my maiden family is not as rich as before, I can’t even go back there?”


Song Chuntian raised her hand and gave her a tight slap. Because they had discussed it in advance, Fang Erlan was able to turn away in time to avoid it and her hand had only just slightly brushed past Fang Erlan’s face. However, on the surface, it appeared as if she had harshly slapped her.


Fang Erlan laid her hand on her own face, and tears flowed down her cheeks as she gazed at her. Without uttering a single word, she turned and went upstairs.


Yu Caiwei stood up from the sofa at the same time as her. “Auntie, why did you hit her? Zixiang will definitely be upset if he finds out.”


“Why would he be upset? The one Zixiang likes is you. Do you think I didn’t know that?” Song Chuntian turned to her and said with a grin, “When Zixiang divorces her, I’ll let him marry you, okay?”


“Auntie…” Yu Caiwei broke into a gentle grin. “There’s something I’ve been wanting to tell you. I think I can’t keep it from you any longer. If I do, my conscience would bother me.”
