My Fortune-Blessed Leading Lady
Chapter 324: You make so much money, isn’t it to support me?

Chapter 324: Chapter 324: You make so much money, isn’t it to support me?

Qi Younian was still muttering something, but Yuran did not listen closely. Although she trusted Situ Jue’s character, could Qi Nian, such a meek girl, really be a match for him?

Don’t scare the young lady.

The last time Qi Nian asked for a parent-teacher conference, he had gone as a parent but hadn’t had the chance to ask Qi Nian about the outcome.

Lately, she’d been busy. Qi Nian had often seemed about to speak then stopped, probably because seeing her so busy, she had no opportunity to share her troubles.

She had been careless herself.

If her own cabbage was going to be messed up by others, how would she explain it to Qi Younian?

...

Yuran’s role in "Emperor Shun of Tang" was nearing its end. After over three months of rushing, mostly filming night scenes, both Yuran and the crew were exhausted.

Yuran was very popular on set, and the reason was simple—she liked to treat everyone to afternoon tea, always with different varieties, and she had spent at least hundreds of thousands on it.

As a newcomer, her salary on set was based on experience with performers ranked from S to D, and her total compensation was not as generous as those with less than ten shots.

Even with standout acting skills, Yuran could only earn a C-level performer’s pay.

Some staff members had done the math for her and told her that she would make less than half a million by the end of shooting "Emperor Shun of Tang."

That wasn’t even close to a fraction of Emperor Bo Yan’s earnings.

People jokingly gossiped about this, but Yuran did not mind and continued to treat everyone to afternoon tea.

Nobody knew that in her heart she thought, it didn’t matter if she didn’t earn as much as Emperor Bo Yan, what was his was hers, and what was hers was still hers.

Yuran had a good personality and was outgoing. She had already become close with Gu Jinshen, Lan Yi, and others, and as for Bo Yan, well, one must not be too blunt on set.

It’s better to avoid giving people a reason to talk.

When she arrived on set, Bo Yan was filming with the new leading actress. After Qu Dongdong lost the lead role, there was a need for a lot of additional shooting.

This scene was Bo Yan’s first intimate scene with a leading lady in years. She sat next to Lan Yi, smiling as she watched the two actors, perhaps the new lead was just nervous about acting with Emperor Bo Yan.

She kept making mistakes.

Lan Yi, perceptive as she was, glanced over just as Bo Yan looked her way. At nearly forty, she certainly didn’t think Bo Yan was looking at her.

So, by her side, besides her, was only the delicately pretty young girl.

She chuckled, "In a couple of days, your scenes will be done."

Yuran smiled, "I am really going to miss everyone."

"So you keep buying everyone afternoon tea, hoping we all turn into fat people so we can’t forget you?"

Yuran was first taken aback, then waved her hands, "Oh no, no, senior, the afternoon tea I buy doesn’t have much sugar in it."

Lan Yi couldn’t help but laugh, "I’m just joking with you. Once you’re gone, there will be no afternoon tea."

"Where there is a will, there’s a way! Senior, just QQ me a call, and I’ll have it delivered immediately."

Lan Yi laughed even more joyfully.

No one dislikes a sweet-talking girl, especially one who is also very charming.

As they chatted, Bo Yan signaled to the director. Lin Zhan immediately shouted to stop and then rushed over to Director Lin, standing in front of the monitor, where they spoke about something unclear.

The leading actress walked towards Yuran and her group, her expression grim.

Suddenly, Lin Zhan exclaimed, "What did you say?"

From Yuran’s perspective, she could only see Bo Yan’s taut jaw, and then his lips moving as he spoke, while Lin Zhan’s expression became increasingly grave.

In the end, Director Lin seemed to have made a compromise.

After the conversation ended, Bo Yan went straight to his resting area to rest, while Director Lin called away their leading actress.

Lan Yi looked around, seemingly figured out something. Yuran, feeling it inappropriate to ask or go over to Bo Yan, could only squat on the spot, drinking the bottled water in her hand.

At this moment, the assistant director came out to lighten the mood, "Everyone, take a break. It’s weirdly hot, be careful of heatstroke!"

The staff dispersed in small groups. As Bo Yan stood up to return to his resting area, Yuran looked around and followed him, while Lan Yi shook her head.

Outside the resting room, Yuran ran into Xie Cheng, hesitated for a moment, then confidently pushed open the door to Bo Yan’s resting room and strutted in. Bo Yan, seeing who had come in through the makeup mirror, couldn’t suppress the smile on his lips.

"Who was it who said they wanted to keep a distance from me?"

Yuran stepped up quickly, hanging onto Bo Yan’s back, her arms around his neck, her face pressed against his, "Me, me, me."

She was quite stubborn, especially adept at acting spoilt.

Bo Yan, holding the hand she had across his chest, kissed her smooth cheek, then pulled her down onto his lap, "Is the problem resolved?"

Yuran nodded in his arms, "Of course, thanks to ’Sugar Daddy.’"

Bo Yan: "...You want to be my daughter?"

"You’re so annoying. That’s just a term of gratitude. Could you give birth to a daughter as big, as cute, and as big a spender as me?"

"Such a big spender?" Bo Yan raised an eyebrow, amused.

Yuran laughed delightedly, "Yeah, aren’t you earning so much money just to spoil me?"

"Yes."

However, spending it all might be a bit difficult.

But Bo Yan didn’t say that aloud; instead, he stroked the young girl’s smooth hair and asked, "What kept you from coming to my resting room before, yet today you’re so proactive? Need something from me?"

"Not at all." Playing with the satin on his costume, Yuran pouted, "In two more days, I’ll have finished all my scenes."

Bo Yan hummed in acknowledgment, "I know, going to miss me? You can visit the set."

"That would be too obvious! Better not. I’ll make you something delicious at home. Seriously annoying. If I could make a lot of money, I’d be able to label you. Ugh, let’s not talk about this upsetting stuff.

What did you say to Director Lin just now? I heard him yelling at you quite forcefully," she added with a touch of schadenfreude.

Bo Yan pinched her cheek and twisted it lightly, "You’re here to enjoy my misfortunes, aren’t you!"

Yuran neither admitted nor denied it.

He said, "I told him to replace the leading lady. She, like Qu Dongdong, totally lacks acting skills. The only difference might be that this one isn’t as troublesome as the previous one."

Yuran: "...this budget, due to changing the leading lady, will be a lot more, right?"

Bo Yan, "Diyang has plenty of money, no need to worry."

Yuran: "...Big spender, impressive!"

Bo Yan couldn’t help but chuckle, "Supporting you won’t be an issue. If you’re mad, why not buy a building to cheer yourself up?"

Yuran dropped a punch onto his chest, "You’re so annoying."

"Am I really that annoying?" His voice suddenly lowered, becoming quite magnetic, and Yuran was caught off guard, her lips captured in a kiss that made her heart race, leaving her breathless and fiery hot.

The kiss made her limbs unresponsive, melting in his arms as he did as he pleased.
