Chapter 502: Chapter 362

(Writer’s block... don’t look yet, once I add a title, it’s done.)

"Everyone’s worked hard during this time. After wrapping up, go home and rest well. I will ask Yan Jie to pay your salary ahead of schedule this month, and it will be paid out by the tenth. If you haven’t received it or there’s any issue, just call me or Yan Jie."

The film crew gathered at a hotel near the set.

Actors, production staff, various workers, lead creators and stars, totaling around seventy people, filled up the ten tables in the hotel’s small banquet hall.

Lin Qingyue didn’t organize any press conference or cocktail party, just simply gathered everyone together to take a photo and said a couple of words before announcing that it was time to eat.

Her words were very well-received, leading to cheers of "Not hard at all" and "Director Lin worked the hardest" from the audience.

Each table quickly started eating, and Wu Mu’s table was lively as well.

"Wow, lobster! Director Lin really raised the meal standard, huh? How much does this cost?" Lou Ziwen commented, picking up a lobster.

Lin Qingyue laughed, "The shooting went smoothly, and I saw there was a lot left in the budget, so I raised the meal standard for everyone."

"Did Yan Jie agree to it?"

"When others eat, maybe not. But when Lou Ziwen eats, she surely agrees." Yan Yongmei quipped from the side.

The official shooting lasted over two months, plus a half-year of preparation, a period neither too long nor too short.

The veterans were already used to it, experiencing no major fluctuations, but newcomer Liu Miao was visibly reluctant.

Thinking of how they might rarely see each other after this meal, having spent two months together, made her lose her appetite.

Lou Ziwen, who was fond of the young girl in the crew, took care of her, "It’s not like we won’t see each other again. Ah Miao, can you drink? Come on, have one."

Liu Miao’s attention was diverted, "I can drink, I toast to Brother Lou."

Feng Shang reminded from the side, "Drink less, just for the gesture, don’t listen to your Brother Lou."

Liu Miao downed the whole drink in one go.

Fortunately, it was red wine, in a small cup, so even for someone who doesn’t drink much, she wouldn’t get drunk immediately.

After toasting, Liu Miao seemed to realize and began to toast others.

She soon arrived at Wu Mu.

Wu Mu held up a glass of cola, smiled at her, "Switch to cola."

Liu Miao looked at the red liquid in Wu Mu’s glass, hesitating.

Afraid she would indeed get drunk, Lou Ziwen teased, "Ah Miao, quickly switch or Brother Wu Mu might splash you if you toast him with wine."

These words immediately drew laughter from everyone, even Lin Qingyue couldn’t help smiling.

However, before reaching the hotel, Wu Mu unexpectedly spotted a familiar face by the roadside.

Hey, what’s she doing here?

Wu Mu curiously observed a figure standing at the entrance of a restaurant ahead.

It was Su Meng, whom he had met long ago during the first season at Star Agency.

She was standing next to a red Ferrari, looking angry, speaking to someone inside the car.

Wu Mu couldn’t see the person inside the Ferrari, but it was evident that they had quite the temper, for after exchanging a few words, that person stepped on the gas and drove off, leaving Su Meng behind.

Leaving Su Meng standing there, frowning at the departing car.

Wu Mu smiled slightly, driving his car over, rolled down the window and jokingly said, "Little Su, it’s been a while."

Su Meng turned to look at him, seemingly taken aback.

It was only their second meeting in person.

But it seemed that Su Meng paid a lot of attention to his situation, as Wu Mu often received feedback from her on his new songs via WeChat.

They didn’t chat much, just simple comments like "the song is really nice."

Regardless of black fans or white fans, at least she contributed to his viewership.

Wu Mu smiled and said, "Your driver ran off? Want me to take you?"

Su Meng hesitated slightly, "Let me tell my family first."

"Aunt Qing, you don’t need to come over, yes, a friend is giving me a ride home, alright, I understand."

After finishing the phone call, Su Meng opened Wu Mu’s passenger side door and got in.

After confirming the address she wanted to go to, Wu Mu curiously asked, "Aren’t you from Shen City, how come you’re here?"

Su Meng shook her head, "I am from Shen City, but my family has a house here in Beijing too."

She paused, rare smile appearing, "Just now at the venue, my friends wanted to cover their ears during your first song."

Wu Mu laughed heartily, "That has nothing to do with me, my singing was fine."

Wu Mu and Su Meng chatted idly, quickly arriving at her house, a large courtyard not far from the Forbidden City in Upper City District.

Yep, confirmed, she’s a Heavenly Dragon Person.

Wu Mu was quite surprised. Although he could tell from her daily behavior that Su Meng’s family was quite wealthy.

He didn’t expect them to be this wealthy.

Just this courtyard alone, estimated to be at least

The owner couldn’t be seen for the time being, Yang Rongfa asked, "Many big directors and company bosses from the industry showed up today. Want me to introduce some to you?"

For a typical industry insider, this would be an opportunity.

It’s always beneficial to know more people.

But recalling a previous experience at a social event, Yang Rongfa wisely decided to ask first.

Wu Mu shook his head, "No..."

But midway through shaking, his gaze scanned over a figure in a small guest lounge sectioned off from the main living room, pausing slightly.

"Director Lin is here too?" Wu Mu asked Yang Rongfa.

The Director Lin he referred to wasn’t Lin Qingyue, but Lin Qingyue’s father, Lin Xueming.
