The next day.

Chi Enen dawdled at home until seven forty-five before leaving.

She arrived at the set by eight o’clock.

As soon as she entered, Wang Lin greeted her, “Sister Enen, why are you just now arriving? Miss Sheng came looking for you earlier, but you weren’t here.”

Sheng Aiyi?

Chi Enen put down her bag, “What did Miss Sheng want with me?”

“Nothing much; Miss Sheng came to tell us that the investors will be back soon and that we should prepare.”

It had been rumored recently that the drama had found a new major investor who was going to invest one billion to ensure that this drama would become this year’s unparalleled big production.

She put down her teacup and tentatively asked, “Have you met the new investor?”

Wang Lin took a teabag from her desk to brew herself a cup of tea, then continued, “No. I heard he’s really wealthy, incredibly handsome, and young too. The reason he’s investing in our Drama Crew is because he wants to promote Miss Sheng; it seems they plan to get married this year.”

“Bang.”

The teacup in Chi Enen’s hand accidentally fell to the ground.

Everyone in the Makeup Room turned to look.

She hurriedly crouched down to pick up the teacup, and took the opportunity to hide the uncontrollable astonishment of that moment.

Li Beijue was getting married?

Wang Lin crouched down as well, “Sister Enen, are you okay?”

“Ah, your hand has turned red. I’ll get you some wet wipes.”

Chi Enen stood up and forced a smile, “It’s okay, I’ll just get some medication.”

“Alright.”

Wang Lin saw that her burn was pretty severe and frowned with concern.

“When the set manager comes, I’ll ask for leave on your behalf.”

“Yeah, thank you.”

Typically, large drama crews have a dedicated clinic for actors to get medication if they are injured.

Chi Enen went to the clinic to get a tube of burn ointment. As soon as she walked out, she ran into the last person she wanted to see.

“Enen?”

Sheng Aiyi called out to her in surprise.

Chi Enen couldn’t pretend to be ignorant, so she approached, politely greeting the group, “Director, Assistant Director, Miss Sheng, good morning.”

“…Young Master Jue, good morning.”

The smile in Sheng Aiyi’s eyes landed on her hand, “Oh, what’s that? Enen, did you burn your hand?”

Li Beijue looked over.

Chi Enen subtly hid her hand behind her, “I just accidentally knocked over a water cup.”

“Oh, I see. Be more careful in the future, Enen. Scars aren’t good for a girl’s appearance,” without missing a beat, Sheng Aiyi looped her arm around the man’s and smilingly said, “We were just about to head to the set, let’s go together.”

Despite her reluctance, Chi Enen felt she had no choice but to follow because the Director, Assistant Director, and all these people could crush her, a minor role, without a second thought. Even though she didn’t want to, she had to walk alongside them.

This time accompanying them were company executives, a group moving en masse. Chi Enen walked at the very back, with Sheng Aiyi and Li Beijue just in front of her a bit.

They were chatting about something, with Sheng Aiyi’s face beaming with joy while even the cold-faced man unusually didn’t carry his usual stern look when he answered her.

That gentle demeanor was completely different from the harshness he showed towards her.

Chi Enen involuntarily slowed her pace,

Just when the Director suddenly turned around and jokingly said, “Aiyi, when do you and Young Master Jue plan to get married?”

Sheng Aiyi nervously looked at Li Beijue, afraid he would reveal their relationship. As she was thinking about how to change the subject, she heard the man’s deep voice, “We’d like to spend more time together first.”

What did he say?

Joy filled Sheng Aiyi’s heart as though she had tasted honey. She quickly responded, “Director Li~ I’m not planning to get married so soon. The way you talk is as if I can’t find a husband or something.”

“You can definitely find a husband. Of course, you can find a husband. My daughter Aiyi is so beautiful and capable, what man wouldn’t like her? Young Master Jue likes you very much,”

Li Beijue subtly glanced at the woman following behind, “Mhm.”

He couldn’t believe this woman had no reaction at all!

Chi Enen had already heard they were getting married, so she wasn’t surprised at all and just continued walking behind them at this moment.

Li Beijue had been quietly observing her every move, noticing that she hadn’t reacted at all from beginning to end, suddenly felt as if a large stone was pressing on his chest, making it difficult to breathe.

He clenched his fist; this damn woman, was she truly indifferent, or was she playing hard to get with him!

Right at that moment, around the corner, a few props workers were pushing a prop cart, hurrying along at a fast pace.

“Make way, make way.”

They turned too quickly, and Chi Enen, preoccupied with her thoughts, didn’t manage to dodge in time. She tripped, falling hard.

A props worker stopped to help her up, “Are you okay?”

Chi Enen, in too much pain to stand, gritted her teeth and shook her head, “I’m alright, go on with your work.”

Sheng Aiyi also stopped and rushed over concernedly, “Enen, are you okay?”

Chi Enen was about to say she was fine.

But Li Beijue’s gaze sharply focused, falling on the bloodstains at the edge of her pants. His complexion changed abruptly. His face turned ashen, and with a kick he overturned the prop trolley, quickly stepping forward.

“Move away!”

“Young Master Jue?” For the first time, Sheng Aiyi heard him speak to her in such a tone, and she froze.

Li Beijue had already pushed her aside and bent down to pick up the person on the ground, swiftly making his way to the clinic.

“Young Master Jue!” Sheng Aiyi’s expression changed drastically, she called after him.

The man striding ahead didn’t seem to have any intention of stopping and had already vanished around the corner.

Director Li and the rest exchanged perplexed looks, curiously asking her, “Aiyi, does Young Master Jue know that young lady?”

Sheng Aiyi looked uncomfortable and forced a smile, feigning ease, “Yeah, we’ve even had a meal together before, Enen is a friend of Young Master Jue. He must’ve seen that Enen fell quite badly just now, so he’s taking her for a medical checkup. Director Li, don’t worry about them; let’s continue.”

She subtly recast the relationship between Li Beijue and Chi Enen as that of good friends, by way of explaining why Li Beijue had such a big reaction to Chi Enen’s fall.

But she could deceive everyone else with that reason, just not herself.

Young Master Jue and Chi Enen…

Sheng Aiyi’s heart shriveled to the size of a needle tip!

“Oh, okay,” the Director, seeing her uncomfortable expression, dubiously withdrew his gaze, and continued walking ahead.
