Chapter 48: Waiting for Someone to Appear

At that time, Shen Jinghe was shocked.

"Wen Yan. Do you know what you just refused?"

So far, Shen Jinghe's studio had never signed any newcomers.

This was also the first time since his debut that he had extended an olive branch to other newcomer colleagues.

In other words, whatever resources Shen Jinghe obtained in the future, he could potentially prioritize sharing them with artists he signed, or even package newcomers and bring them into productions.

Actually, the moment he asked this question, Shen Jinghe even felt a bit regretful.

Because he felt like he was being too good to Wen Yan, when clearly their relationship wasn't that close yet.

But unexpectedly, the rare time he opened his mouth with good intentions, she actually looked down on it?

This immediately triggered his stubborn streak.

"Reason? Give me a reason."

At the time, Wen Yan thought carefully and said:

"Aren't we still in the eye of the storm? Even now, many of your fans are private messaging me to scold me for being shameless and throwing myself at you. If I actually went to your studio, your fans might unfollow you, which would be bad for your image. Hehe, I also know Second Brother, you have good intentions wanting to help me, so I especially can't repay kindness with enmity and put you in a difficult position!"

Shen Jinghe knew that Wen Yan had a clever tongue.

But what Shen Jinghe knew even better was that whenever Wen Yan spoke this way, she was being perfunctory.

He wasn't pleased either, and sneered: "Who wants to help you? I just think you have a constitution for attracting fans. As for you, go cool off wherever it's coolest."

Then the two separated and each went to busy themselves with their own matters.

There were two real reasons why Wen Yan did this

First, she also didn't know what her relationship with the Shen family would develop into in the future.

Maybe one day her fate with the Shen family would end, and then if she had financial disputes with Shen Jinghe, that would be bad.

The second point, and also the most important one, was, Wen Yan was waiting for a certain person to appear.

If she was determined to continue developing in this industry, then this person was who she most wanted to work with.

This person was very impressive. In the novel world she had transmigrated into, she was someone even the female lead had to show respect to.

You have to know, in the original book, the female lead was an omnipotent existence with numerous alternate identities.

The identity of Best Actress in the entertainment industry was just one small identity among the female lead's many masks.

But even so, the female lead still showed this person considerable deference.

The most crucial point was that when Wen Yan read the novel, she discovered this character had great respect for women.

Being an artist under her, the only thing you had to do was act well. She would never make her artists bow to money, especially female artists.

Before transmigrating into the book, Wen Yan had suffered a big loss on this very point. When she was reading the novel, she thought how great it would be if her boss or agent could be like this character in the novel.

This person was also a very famous existence in the original novel, but after Wen Yan transmigrated, she couldn't find any information about her online.

So Wen Yan decided to give herself a time limit and wait a bit longer. Perhaps this character would only appear when the female lead triggered a certain plot point.

But even if this person didn't appear in the end, it didn't matter, she would think of other ways.

The next filming location required shooting in the mountains.

Wen Yan hadn't had time before, but this time she could take advantage of this opportunity to visit the old grandmother who had taken her and Shen Jinghe in overnight last time.

Just as they were wrapping up, she ran into Shen Jinghe on set, so she took the initiative to greet him.

"Hi Teacher Shen, tomorrow when we go into the mountains, I'm planning to visit Grandma Zhou. Do you want to go together?"

Shen Jinghe nodded: "Sure."

Wen Yan: 'Worthy of being Teacher Shen, truly as economical with words as ever'

Shen Jinghe glanced at her, thinking don't think I don't know you're being sarcastic in your head.

Why would he say a bunch of nonsense when two words "sure" could solve the matter?

The two were mutually complaining about each other in their hearts, but neither showed it on their faces.

Wen Yan immediately threw out another topic:

"How about I go to the supermarket later to buy some things to take with me, and we split the bill? Or will you buy things separately yourself?"

"You buy, buy more, buy good stuff."

"Teacher Shen sounds like he's giving orders, but I'm doing a favor here, not..."

"When we split it, I'll pay 70%, you pay 30%"

"Deal!"

What a great deal! Let him use a commanding tone if he wants, after all, she's spending 20% less money.

Shen Jinghe actually found her behavior quite incomprehensible. Logically, she wasn't short on money, how much could a supermarket trip cost?

But, inexplicably, Shen Jinghe felt she was quite vivid this way.

However, up until bedtime, Shen Jinghe hadn't received a bill from Wen Yan.

It wasn't until the next morning when the crew was departing that a three-wheeled motorcycle loaded with grain, oil, rice, flour and other goods drove over, and the driver went straight to Wen Yan to talk.

Only then did Shen Jinghe realize that Wen Yan had bought so much stuff.

Looking at that three-wheeler, the expression on Shen Jinghe's face was quite indescribable.

"Wen Yan, don't tell me you also bought this vehicle to give to Grandma Zhou?"

"How is that possible? I didn't expect Teacher Shen to have such a wild imagination. I rented this vehicle."

"Why didn't you just discuss with the crew to have their vehicles bring the stuff over?"

"Too much trouble, and what if these things bump into the crew's props and ruin something important? Don't tell me Teacher Shen is feeling bad about the rental fee."

".... Couldn't you rent a different vehicle? Why choose this model?"

"I asked! The delivery master said that to get into Grandma Zhou's village, you need a three-wheeler. Bigger vehicles can't get through those small roads."

Shen Jinghe was at a loss for words. The facts seemed to really be this way.

After arriving at the location, the crew needed to do prep work first.

Zhou Junye knew Wen Yan and Shen Jinghe wanted to visit the old lady, so he proactively made things convenient for them.

"The crew has two prop electric scooters. Why don't you two ride over? Who knows how long it would take on foot alone."

As a result, both Wen Yan and Shen Jinghe looked bewildered, and said in unison: "I don't know how to ride an electric scooter."

At this moment, Shen Jinghe's assistant silently raised his hand: "I can ride."

Wen Yan blinked: "But one small electric scooter can't fit three people."

"Then just call another person who can ride an electric scooter to help take you." Zhou Junye suggested.

Just then, Wang Che passed by in front of them and was grabbed by the director to serve as a temporary driver.

Four people, two electric scooters, ten-some minutes later they arrived at Grandma Zhou's house.

Grandma Zhou was very happy to see Wen Yan and Shen Jinghe. She hurriedly ushered everyone to sit down, and hospitably wanted to make tea for them, insisting they must stay for lunch.
