Wen Nian bowed deeply to everyone, expressing her heartfelt gratitude. “Thank you, seniors, for your guidance and care throughout this period. I sincerely wish each and every one of you great success in the industry!”

Wen Nian embraced the actors who had shared the screen with her. Xu Chang went the extra mile and personally accompanied Wen Nian to the roadside.

As Xu Chang glanced back at the actors who were preparing for the upcoming scene, he couldn’t help but sigh. “Time flies by so swiftly. It’s a shame that 1 don’t have enough funds for publicity. Otherwise, there would be another chance for us to gather together.”

Wen Nian observed Xu Chang’s pained expression and couldn’t help but smile, playfully teasing him. “Are you resorting to emotional tactics now, hoping that I’ll help you with free promotion?”

Xu Chang remained unfazed by being seen through and maintained his thick-skinned demeanor. “Even without popular celebrities, we still need to strive and work hard. Box office sales matter, and it’s worth the effort to achieve better results.”

Wen Nian playfully rolled her eyes at Xu Chang and teasingly remarked, “Don’t worry about me. I still have to prioritize my studies and catch up on the classes I’ve missed. Besides, I’m just an ordinary person. Whether I’m present or not, it won’t make much of a difference. Save your deep emotions for the other actors.”

Xu Chang let out a soft sigh and responded, “Alright, I knew you would say that. Please make sure to return safely. Remember to give me a call once you arrive in Hai City. Your sudden disappearance yesterday truly had me scared to death. 1 almost had to call your parents. Just the thought of it still makes my legs tremble. If anything were to happen to you, even if 1 were to be sold, the price would not be enough to compensate even half of the loss your parents would feel.”

After his previous remarks, Xu Chang couldn’t help but express his curiosity. “What does your boyfriend do? Yesterday, I followed him to the police station, and the highest-ranking police officer came out to receive him! Even the surveillance cameras at the police station seemed to be adjusted just for him!”

Wen Nian playfully nudged Xu Chang a few steps toward the studio. “Don’t worry about my personal matters. I promise 1’11 call you once I reach home! Now go focus on filming your scene!”

Having grown accustomed to one another, their interactions had developed a relaxed and casual tone. Their relationship had evolved into that of old friends.

Seeing this, Xu Chang reminded her as an elder, “It’s fine for you to fall in love, and it’s fine for me to keep it a secret. There are some things you shouldn’t do before you reach adulthood. You have to be careful. Girls have to know how to protect themselves.”

Wen Nian’s ears turned red and she waved her hand. “I can’t be bothered with you. I’m leaving!”

Seeing Wen Nian get into the car, Xu Chang smiled and shook his head. He turned around and entered the studio.

When Wen Nian arrived back at the hotel, it was slightly after 12:30 PM. She opted for a light meal, having some bread, and then proceeded to take a relaxing shower. Afterward, she changed into her comfortable pajamas and settled herself on the bed, ready to unwind and rest.

As Wen Nian opened her eyes once more, the room was enveloped in darkness. The faint daylight that had filtered through earlier had vanished entirely. She extended her hand towards the bedside table, seeking the touch of the lamp in an attempt to bring some light back into the room.

“Snap!”

Wen Nian noticed the bedside lamp on the opposite side flicker to life, and the sudden brightness caused her to reflexively squint her eyes. As her vision adjusted, she saw Shen Jun sitting at the head of the bed, gazing at her with a gentle smile on his face.

Wen Nian slowly sat up. “What time is it? When did you wake up?”

Wen Nian had just woken up and her voice was even softer than usual.

As Shen Jun observed Wen Nian’s expression of confusion, he couldn’t help but envision a future married life with her. A deep sense of contentment washed over him, filling his heart with satisfaction and happiness.

Shen Jun looked at his phone and said gently, “7:23 pm. I just woke up not long ago.”

Upon noticing Shen Jun’s bound arm, Wen Nian quickly expressed her concern. “Did you sleep without putting any pressure on your arm?”

Shen Jun couldn’t resist teasing Wen Nian, captivated by her gentle and adorable demeanor. “I’m a still sleeper. Didn’t you notice that this afternoon?”

Wen Nian glared at Shen Jun. “Hurry up and get up to eat!”

Of course, it was up to Wen Nian to help Shen Jun put on his clothes. While the process of dressing him went smoothly for the most part, both of them blushed slightly when it came time to put on his pants.

Because they didn’t have time to buy groceries, the two of them finally asked the hotel to send food into the room.

Due to Shen Jun’s fracture, he needed to adhere to a diet consisting of mild and light food. Spicy and greasy dishes could potentially hinder his recovery process. Therefore, Wen Nian ordered dishes that Guangzhou cuisine, known for its light and delicate flavors, was famous for.

Both Shen Jun and Wen Nian had a fondness for spicy food, so when they saw the array of steamed dishes, they wrinkled their brows. “Having it once or twice is fine, but eating like this every day? Our taste buds will become dull. How long do we have to eat like this?”

Wen Nian placed a bowl of pork bone soup in front of Shen Jun and said, “It takes a hundred days to heal bones and tendons. You’ve already fractured your arm, so don’t you want to recover quickly? ‘Like cures like,’ so drink it quickly.”

Shen Jun took a few sips.

Seeing the situation, Wen Nian expressed her concerns. “We’re returning to Hai City the day after tomorrow, and it won’t be feasible for you to eat out like before. How about hiring a cook to prepare dinner for you? I can bring breakfast for you, and I’ll have my mom make all the lunches light. However, 1 won’t be able to help you with dinner..”
