Chapter 331: Revenge!
Jiang Jingheng had heard the name "Nuannuan" from her sleep-talking before.
Last time, when she was hospitalized for an allergy, she also called out this name in her sleep.
Mu Yan lowered her hands, looked at him, and replied, "Yes, I only changed my name to Mu Yan after Mom married Uncle Mu."
"What was your name before?" Jiang Jingheng asked.
Mu Yan closed her eyes again, "I don’t remember."
Jiang Jingheng could see she was avoiding the question and didn’t press further.
He took off his clothes, lay down beside her, and pulled her into his arms.
Mu Yan was not sleepy at all; her mind was full of the dream she just had.
No, it wasn’t a dream; it was her forgotten memory.
It was only in the latter half of the night that Mu Yan fell asleep, and she woke up a bit late the next day.
Over at the film crew, Luo Yao had already asked Director Zeng for leave, so she rested at the hotel with peace of mind.
While having lunch, she recalled the kidnapping incident from the previous night and asked Jiang Jingheng, "Why did those people kidnap me yesterday?"
"It was orchestrated by someone named Xu Youxi."
Mu Yan was a bit surprised, "Her? Why would she kidnap me?"
Jiang Jingheng originally didn’t want to tell her these things, but since she’s so smart, she would eventually find out.
"Think of the worst-case scenario."
Mu Yan’s expression changed slightly, and she gripped her chopsticks tightly.
She didn’t want to think badly of people’s intentions, but human nature is complicated, and she couldn’t understand it.
She had never actively provoked Xu Youxi, yet Xu Youxi frequently targeted her in the film crew.
Although He Jianzhou might have incited her, if she didn’t have the intention, she wouldn’t have fallen for it.
Jiang Jingheng said, "Don’t overthink it, just eat first."
"Okay." Mu Yan nodded; it was hard not to feel heavy-hearted. She also picked a piece of meat for him.
At the set, Xu Youxi wasn’t surprised that Mu Yan didn’t come.
However, her assistant was nowhere to be found, and she couldn’t get through on the phone; she was waiting to admire the photos.
After wrapping up at night, when she finished removing her makeup and came out, there were hardly any people left at the set.
She called her agent to pick her up, but no one answered from that side.
She was irritated for a while and decided to return to the hotel alone.
Halfway, a group of people suddenly surrounded her.
"What do you want?" Xu Youxi looked at them with a face full of vigilance.
Without a word, those people grabbed her and shoved her into a car.
Xu Youxi never imagined in her dreams that she would be humiliated by a few ugly men in a warehouse.
No matter how much she cried and screamed, they ignored her.
"I’m the eldest daughter of the Changfeng Group, and you dare treat me like this? My dad won’t let you get away with it!"
"Get away, don’t touch me!"
"Help!"
...
But no matter how much she screamed, it was useless.
Again and again, the dignity of the eldest daughter was trampled by these people.
The next day, when Mu Yan went to the film crew, Xu Youxi had taken leave.
Knowing she had wanted to kidnap her, Mu Yan had no feelings for her.
But within a couple of days, Mu Yan heard that Xu Youxi wanted to leave the crew.
The director and producer were at their wit’s end; after all, most of the filming was already done, and if Xu Youxi left the crew, all her scenes would have to be reshot, otherwise, they would have to rely on post-production.
Neither option was something the director and producer wanted to see.
In the end, someone suggested cutting Han Jianing’s scenes, which meant making Han Jianing "die" early.
The scriptwriter deliberated for a bit and finally agreed to rewrite the script.
As a result, Mu Yan became the sole female lead of the drama.
The scriptwriter spent an entire night rewriting the script.
Mu Yan’s scenes were also altered; this time, she really had to pair up with He Jianzhou.
