The tall, graceful man was sitting on the sofa in the room, watching her.
Shen Yan poured him a glass of cold water, feeling a bit embarrassed, “I forgot to get the tea leaves, Mr. Qi, please make do with this water.”
“Mhm.”
Qi Si didn’t show any disdain and picked up the glass to drink.
After finishing the water, the atmosphere in the room became a bit stiff again.
Qi Si was the first to speak, “It’s very late, have a good rest.”
With that, he stood up and left the room.
“I’ll walk Mr. Qi out,” Shen Yan quickly followed him out the door.
Watching Qi Si open the door opposite and enter, Shen Yan returned to her own room and flopped onto the large bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, her mind empty of thoughts.
It was quite a while before Shen Yan went to wash up in the bathroom.
The next day when she got up, Shen Yan deliberately glanced at the door opposite, which was tightly shut. Given Qi Si’s usual waking time, he probably wasn’t in his room.
In fact, Qi Si had left before dawn.
His work had suddenly been relocated here, which was a bit troubling.
It was only after she got up in the morning that Shen Yan remembered she hadn’t properly discussed the matter of the wedding ring with him.
“Yanyan!”
Xiao Zhao came out of the elevator, holding breakfast for Shen Yan in her hand.
Shen Yan’s gaze shifted away from the opposite door.
Xiao Zhao had also seen that extremely handsome man yesterday and wanted to ask, but stopped herself.
It was Shen Yan’s private matter, and as just an assistant, she had no place to pry.
“Where’s Uncle Liu?”
“Uncle Liu is waiting downstairs, he was worried you hadn’t had breakfast and asked me to bring it up, so we could go to the set together.”
Shen Yan took the breakfast from her hands, with no particular fuss, eating while walking toward the elevator.
Xiao Zhao followed behind and asked quietly, “Yanyan, do you need me to be aware of anything?”
For example, keeping an eye on the surroundings, or helping to pass on messages.
The man from last night, it was clear that his relationship with Shen Yan was not simple. If it was that kind of relationship, considering Shen Yan’s current period of career development, as her assistant, she should help keep an eye on things around and pay attention to some matters.
Shen Yan said, “No need, I’m not in a secret relationship with him.”
There was nothing to hide.
If it ever came to light one day, she would boldly admit it.
It was just…
Shen Yan thought about how Qi Si didn’t like to take photos, and as a celebrity, she was often in the public eye. If someone accidentally photographed Qi Si, he would probably be furious.
Xiao Zhao’s heart stirred, not a secret relationship, then it must be an open relationship!!
Liu Su stood outside and hurried forward to meet them as they came out, “Sir left early in the morning.”
“Uh-huh,” Shen Yan nodded, subconsciously pulling out her phone to check and found no messages from Qi Si.
Liu Su watched Shen Yan’s action with a smile emerging at the bottom of his eyes, “Sir left early, afraid he might disturb you, and asked me to specially convey that.”
“…Is that so.”
Shen Yan squinted at Liu Su, assessing the truthfulness of his words.
Because Liu Su had committed too many blunders in the past.
Liu Su smiled warmly, “Sir also asked about your filming schedule, he might want to have dinner with you tonight!”
Shen Yan looked at Liu Su with a skeptical gaze again.
“After I finish my filming, I’ll send a message to Mr. Qi myself.”
“Well, that sounds great!” Liu Su sounded even more delighted after hearing this.
Xiao Zhao stood clear by, listening to every word.
She learned that the man’s surname was Qi.
And Liu Su had referred to him as Sir.
The implication was significant.
Xiao Zhao had been wondering, the type of person someone as beautiful as Shen Yan would date, and now she had seen him.
Just by their looks, they were an absolutely perfect match!

Film set.
Today, they filmed scenes involving Li Yanbai and Shen Yan. Given the unique subject matter, the overall tone was considerably oppressive, and everyone’s mood had become heavy with the plot right from the start of the day.
By the time Shen Yan’s scenes finished, it was already past three in the afternoon.
There was still a short scene to be filmed in the evening.
Shen Yan waited on set for her scene while pondering over the script in her hand.
Throughout the film set, Director Chen’s outbursts could be intermittently heard.
Shen Yan occasionally looked up to see Director Chen raging like thunder, but it had become so common that, just like Shen Yan, most people would only glance over before returning to their work.
If Director Chen didn’t roar at least twice a day, they would actually find it odd.
Li Yanbai was also on the receiving end of the scolding. Due to a dangerous scene in which Li Yanbai nearly injured himself, Director Chen had grabbed him and gave him a several-minute lecture on the spot before finally letting it go.
Drained, Li Yanbai slumped down next to Shen Yan, with Director Chen’s berating still echoing from upfront.
Li Yanbai’s assistant hastened to wipe his sweat and offer water, whispering complaints, “Director Chen is too harsh. Expecting perfect execution of such dangerous stunts without getting hurt, how is that even possible?”
Li Yanbai took a sip of water and laughed, “Better not let Director Chen hear you, or he’ll pull you over for a lecture too.”
The assistant promptly fell silent.
Shen Yan put down the script she knew inside out and looked at Li Yanbai’s profile, noticing the very obvious red marks.
A little more force, and it might have scraped off his flesh.
“Tomorrow, we’re shooting the car chase scene,” Li Yanbai turned to look at her and asked, “Are you ready?”
“I’m fine,” Shen Yan said, “I have a driver’s license.”
Li Yanbai paused, then chuckled softly, “You’re really different from the other actresses.”
Shen Yan wanted to ask about Song Xuan but then swallowed her words. Their business had nothing to do with her.
Song Xuan was now regularly on the variety show “Life in the Courtyard.”
While Li Yanbai was still mingling in the film circles.
Their interactions remained as scarce as before.
Possibly even nonexistent.
“Is that so,” Shen Yan didn’t feel any different from others.
“Later, we should go over our lines. I’m worried I won’t be able to keep up with you.”
“Mr. Li, you’re too modest.”
“Everyone praises your acting; I feel quite pressured!” Li Yanbai said smilingly as he took out his script.
Shen Yan cooperated with him in discussing the script.

After shooting one scene in the evening, Li Yanbai’s scenes were done.
The rest of the scenes for that day involved other actors, and after a tiring day, Li Yanbai and Shen Yan headed back to the hotel together.
Liu Su watched Shen Yan and Li Yanbai get into the car together and hesitated, wanting to say something.
Due to different schedules for their scenes, actors’ departure and arrival times at the hotel were not always the same. Sometimes, even if they stayed on the same floor, they might not bump into each other every day.
They could only possibly see each other on set.
It was normal not to see someone for several days due to shooting in different locations.
Li Yanbai had just happened to wrap up his scenes with Shen Yan today and casually suggested they go back to the hotel together, taking the same car without much thought.
They didn’t think much of it, but others would.
The two of them seemed quite a match. If someone with an agenda took photos, who knows what kind of rumors would circulate.
All the way back, Liu Su was nervously on guard. Upon arriving at the hotel, he didn’t have a chance to speak a word to Shen Yan.
Except for the two of them, the others stayed on different floors and had left the elevator midway.
Although Li Yanbai stayed on the same floor as Shen Yan, his room was the furthest one, a bit of a distance away.
As they stepped out, they saw Qi Si standing in the hallway with his assistant.
Li Yanbai was taken aback at the sight of this imposing man.
Remembering what hotel this was, he guessed the man might be someone important. He merely glanced hurriedly and then turned to speak to Shen Yan, only to see Shen Yan staring at the man, her face breaking into a serene and comfortable smile as she walked toward him.
Li Yanbai was stunned once again.
