Chapter 222 Thoughts
At the dinner table, Wen Rong and Yu Wanxin had a great conversation. Occasionally, they would ask Xi Leng for his opinion, and his answers were always "hmm" or "yes", which were extremely simple.
After dinner, he was afraid that his mother would ask him to see someone off, so he pretended to receive a phone call and left early.
"Wanxin, don't mind it. He is just too busy. Otherwise, I wouldn't have to worry about his marriage. Please don't take it to heart."
Yu Wanxin said very sensibly, "No, no, it's normal for President Xi to be busy as he is in charge of such a large group. Besides, men who are busy with their careers are the most attractive. I like men like President Xi the most."
Wen Rong thought: Isn't this just a disguised way of confessing to her A Leng?
As long as A Leng doesn't hate it, there will be hope for the two of them.
If the relationship between the two of them were to work out, would she have to tell her plans first?
"Wanxin, do you know about our Aye?"
Yu Wanxin nodded.
Wen Rong held her hand and said gently, "He was dating Ruxia at the beginning. Later, Aye got into trouble and Ruxia was sent abroad. She was gone for five years. No one expected that she would give birth to a child for Aye. I want to adopt the child under A Leng's name after you get married and give the child a complete home. If you don't want to, I won't force you..."
Yu Wanxin naturally knew who Ruxia was. She was not familiar with Xi Leng because Xi Leng was not polite to women and he did not like to attend parties. Moreover, at his level, there were not many parties that could invite him, so even though the two had met twice, they only saw each other from afar and had not even said hello.
But she and Yu Ruxia were very familiar with each other, and they were even college classmates. She also knew about her relationship with Xi Ye. Unexpectedly, that woman gave birth to Xi Ye's posthumous child!
"Has Ruxia been single all these years?"
Wen Rong's tone was a little regretful and seemed to carry a bit of complacency, "She has deep feelings for our Aye, otherwise she wouldn't have given birth to Aye's child without hesitation and raised the child by herself."
Yu Wanxin: So what was Mrs. Xi thinking? The child’s biological mother was still alive, but she actually wanted to adopt the child under the name of the uncle. What was her purpose in doing this?
Isn’t she afraid that bad rumors will spread about her eldest son’s and youngest son’s girlfriends?
"It's not easy for her. Don't worry, Auntie. If that day ever comes between me and President Xi, I will definitely take good care of the child." No way!
She was not like her uncle and aunt who were willing to raise a child for someone else. Moreover, after the adoption, the child would also have the inheritance rights of Xi Leng, so she would not allow others to divide the property belonging to her child.
Wen Rong believed it and was happy. He kept talking to Yu Wanxin and it was visibly that their relationship was becoming closer.
……
In the crew, Liruan has already filmed one-third of her scenes. Today, she received a call from the courier, saying that the things her mother prepared had been mailed to her, and asked her when she could come to pick them up.
She still has a scene to shoot today, which is the scene of catching a thief on the street. This scene has to be filmed on the street. The road for filming has been blocked in advance and it costs a lot, so she has to try to finish filming this scene as quickly as possible.
It just so happens that I can go home and get my things after the photo shoot.
With a clapper, Li Ruan, dressed in casual clothes, came out. When she was leaving get off work, she heard someone shouting to catch a thief. She looked in the direction of the voice and saw an old lady pointing at a thin figure and shouting, "Thief, he stole my money, hurry up and catch the thief."
Song Hua immediately stepped forward to catch the thief. The thief realized someone was chasing her and ran away quickly. The two of them chased each other and ran back and forth on the guardrail, but they couldn't get rid of the person. The thief ran onto the overpass in a hurry, and saw Song Hua chasing her again. Halfway through the run, he flipped down the steps, jumped onto the roof of a car, and then fell to the ground.
In a hurry, Song Hua jumped down, landed on the second car and easily jumped to the ground, continuing to chase the thief.
The two chased each other on the street, and finally Song Hua pounced and kicked him down. The two started fighting on the sidewalk. In the end, the thief was captured alive, and the audience who gathered around to watch the fun applauded her.
Director Chen did not call for a cut, but called Li Ruan over. The two watched the scene from beginning to end and asked, "Do you see any problems?" Li Ruan: "Not exciting enough."
Yes, it’s just not exciting enough.
Director Chen also felt it, but he couldn't tell what was wrong. Li Ruan's performance was obviously good enough and her skills were agile enough, but he just felt that something was missing.
Liruan's eyes suddenly lit up: "I feel like it has something to do with chasing too far?"
In the scene just now, they ran one after the other for at least 500 meters. Doesn't it seem that the police are too incompetent to have to run so far before catching the thief?
"But if the distance is too close, then those chase scenes will have to be deleted."
Liruan thought for a moment and said, "Thieves usually work in groups. How about adding two more people to help us?"
Director Chen's eyes suddenly lit up, "If we add a fight scene where the other party takes out a dagger, can you do it?"
Li Ruan nodded affirmatively: "I have no problem, just tell me how many moves I can use to take him down."
Director Chen immediately discussed with the martial arts instructor and the actor who played the thief how to perform the next scene.
Liruan’s main point is that if they run away from her and she chases them, they can’t escape even if they have wings!
An hour later, the scene where Liruan bravely catches the three thieves was finished. Director Chen was very satisfied after watching it again. Liruan's filming for the day was over.
After asking for leave from Director Chen, Liruan went home to receive the supplies. My goodness, why didn’t her mother drive the car to bring the goods back for her?
No wonder the people at Mom’s Station contacted her to quickly take her things away, there were really too many things.
I guess all the freshly made peanut oil was brought to her. Ten 20-liter barrels were filled with it. Plus cured pork legs, sausages, smoked fish, mushrooms, fungus, peanuts, chestnuts, walnuts... the whole shop was almost filled up.
"Miss Li, would you like me to help you move these things to the car?"
Liruan could only ask the store owner to help put the things into the Lincoln car, and then let Qiangzi drive directly to the compound.
"Why did you bring so many things?"
I haven't seen Ms. Wen for a while. She has changed a lot. She looked very weak before, but now her complexion is rosy and she speaks with confidence. She has outstanding looks, otherwise she wouldn't have given birth to such a beautiful daughter like Liruan. She looks at least ten years younger now.
"These are all things from my family's fields. My mother picked them up. Please see which ones you can use at home and I will bring them down."
Wen Renyi kept all of them. "Oh, they were all planted by your parents. They are all good things. Why should I be picky? By the way, does your father smoke or drink?"
Dad Yu doesn't smoke, but he drinks, and only good wine.
Therefore, there are a lot of good wine and cigarettes piled up in the home warehouse.
Liruan did not hide the fact that her father smoked and drank.
