Did the cat go to sleep in Chapter 70?
"If you're not feeling well, just ask for leave. If the crew has any complaints, I'll let Li Weiran handle it."
Jiang Haochen's concern after the fact was extremely scummy.
Chi Yuan awkwardly said "I understand" and quickly left.
Jiang Haochen lowered the car window and watched the boy run into the light before starting the car and driving away.
But after driving less than a kilometer, the car stopped again, simply because the lingering smell in the car kept reminding him of that vivid and fragrant scene.
Jiang Haochen simply got out of the car and lit a cigarette, hoping the wind would dissipate the smell inside.
"How can you be so alluring?" The words, accompanied by a low laugh, echoed in the wind.
Jiang Haochen had smoked most of a cigarette when his phone suddenly rang. It was Cui Dong.
Cui Dong: "Where are you? Come out for a drink."
Jiang Haochen: "I'm not going."
Cui Dong: "Stop talking nonsense. I've been to your office. You didn't work overtime today. It's been so long since we had a drink together."
Jiang Haochen: "I can't go there, I'm in F City right now."
Cui Dong: "F City? What are you going there for?"
Jiang Haochen: "Come see my kitten."
It took Cui Dong a moment to realize who the kitten was referring to.
"Did the cat go sleeping for a thousand miles?"
Jiang Haochen laughed and cursed, "Get lost!"
Cui Dong laughed heartily on the other end: "When we went there this time, wasn't he exceptionally enthusiastic towards you, almost like he was worshipping you?"
Jiang Haochen: "None of your business."
Cui Dong: "I can tell from your voice that you enjoyed it. You owe me a drink, you know. It took me a lot of effort to get those three old men to retweet the post."
The smile in Jiang Haochen's eyes suddenly faded a little.
He didn't take Cui Dong's words seriously. Cui Dong was mostly responsible for the company's operations. Although the company's artists knew he was one of the big bosses, they also knew he rarely interfered in day-to-day affairs. Especially the company's earlier artists, who didn't have much involvement with him. That's why he asked Cui Dong to help Chi Yuan retweet the Weibo post.
But the whole "it takes a lot of effort" thing is pure nonsense. He's the boss; he's just forwarding a Weibo post. Even the most famous celebrities would give him face.
What bothered him was the implication in Cui Dong's words: was Chi Yuan's enthusiasm because of his help?
Cui Dong was still talking: "Today, my people were compiling artist information for me, and I saw your cat's stats. He already has five million Weibo followers, and the Fox Ancestor's videos are still incredibly popular. At this rate, by the time 'The Legend of the Green Fox' airs, he'll probably have eight million followers. The 'Imperial Power' series he's currently filming is a big production, and if it does well, it has the potential to be a huge hit."
Jiang Haochen: "Really?"
Cui Dong: "Yeah, so if you want to enjoy this feeling as much as you can right now, do it now. Once he really explodes, you won't have this privilege anymore."
Chi Yuan was his kept mistress, but she was also an artist under the company. When this mistress gained significant commercial value, the company's attitude towards her naturally changed.
So, is Chi Yuan being so proactive today because he knows he's in a crucial "breakout period"?
Jiang Haochen: "Really?"
It was still those two words, but Cui Dong clearly sensed Jiang Haochen's displeasure.
He joked, "You're not actually reluctant to part with it, are you?"
Jiang Haochen said ambiguously, "What if I really can't bear to part with it?"
Cui Dong: "What else can we do? You're my brother, I'll definitely support you. I'll tell my subordinates to put Chi Yuan on the sidelines as soon as I get to work tomorrow."
Jiang Haochen rolled his eyes: "Stop messing around."
Just then, someone called out to Cui Dong on the other end of the phone. Cui Dong hurriedly said something and hung up.
Jiang Haochen looked at the cigarette butt in his hand that had already burned out, and lit another one.
After finishing one cigarette, the complex emotions in my heart also calmed down.
He really liked Chi Yuan's body, and he also liked his bold and unrestrained yet shy demeanor. After the contract expired, he might not be able to find a lover who suited his taste again, which is why he felt a little lost.

Crew.
Chi Yuan rushed back and met Xiao Zhao, who was anxiously waiting at the entrance of the dressing room.
"Brother Chi, you've finally arrived! The makeup artist has asked about you so many times."
Chi Yuan: "I'll go in now."
As Chi Yuan entered, someone came out of the house. The two bumped into each other unexpectedly. Just as Chi Yuan was about to apologize, he suddenly felt someone push his shoulder, and he staggered back two steps, almost falling.
"Actor Yan?" Xiao Zhao's voice was filled with surprise.
Chi Yuan then realized that it was Yan Chuan who had pushed him earlier: "Senior."
Yan Chuan's gaze swept over Chi Yuan, but only for a moment before quickly looking away, as if he were looking at something dirty. Then he left without saying a word.
During their two months on set, neither Chi Yuan nor Xiao Zhao had ever seen Yan Chuan like this before, and both of them were quite bewildered.
Xiao Zhao: "Actor Yan looks like he's in a bad mood."
Chi Yuan didn't think much of it; he was in a hurry to put on makeup and went straight into the dressing room.
Chi Yuan's skin was very good, which saved the makeup artist a lot of time; the makeup and styling were completed in less than half an hour. Next came the costumes. Because he felt guilty, Chi Yuan didn't dare ask the costume designer for help and dressed himself with Xiao Zhao.
Although Mr. Jiang did not leave any marks on him, the space inside the car was cramped, and there must have been marks on his back from being squeezed.
After changing his clothes, Chi Yuan drank some water and began to calm himself down. He didn't rush over until the production crew informed them that it was time to go to the set.
Yan Chuan was already waiting there.
Rong Yan called the two over to discuss the scene: "The emotions are very important in this scene. You've already rehearsed the scene, right?"
Yan Chuan didn't speak, but Chi Yuan obediently replied, "We checked it this afternoon."
Director Rong said with relief, "That's good. I trust Yan Chuan. Chi Yuan, you need to pay more attention to your eyes when you're acting..."
After explaining everything, filming officially began.
Inside the dimly lit curtains.
The young general is about to lead his troops into a very dangerous battle. Xuan Yuanzhong is reluctant to let him go, but he also knows that in this battle, the only person he can use and trust is Ling Che.
Ling Che, with his shawl draped over his shoulders, knelt on one knee: "Your Majesty, please give your order."
Xuanyuan Chong looked at the kneeling youth, his eyes surging with emotion: "Ling Che, the country cannot do without you, nor can I. On the battlefield, protect yourself first, then plan for victory."
After saying that, Xuan Yuanzhong lifted the young general up with both hands. Chi Yuan looked up and was about to continue his lines when he was stunned the moment he met Xuan Yuanzhong's eyes.
"Card!"
Director Rong yelled "Cut!" and before Chi Yuan could react, Yan Chuan released his grip. Caught off guard, Chi Yuan lost his balance and fell to his knees again.
The site was set up as a military camp, and the interior was very simple. The floor was full of gravel, covered only by a thin carpet. When Chi Yuan knelt down, he bumped into a stone.
Chi Yuan winced in pain, but dared not delay, and quickly stood up to apologize: "Director, I'm sorry."
"It's okay, you didn't quite get the emotions right just now, let's do it again." As he spoke, Director Rong glanced at Yan Chuan.
Soon, during the second take, in the same scene, Chi Won still couldn't keep up with the performance.
During the third take, Chi Won managed to deliver his lines, but his emotions were off.
The fourth time, the fifth time... Chi Yuan was stuck seven or eight times in a row, and he knelt down seven or eight times in a row.
The director had no other choice but to signal Chi Won to adjust the filming schedule before continuing.
Chi Yuan walked away with a limp, and Xiao Zhao rushed to help him, feeling extremely distressed: "Brother Chi, are you alright? President Jiang also... knew you were filming."
Do we really have to rush for this hour?
Chi Yuan: "That's not the reason."
It was Yan Chuan who kept suppressing his scenes.
Did I offend him in some way?
