Chapter 408 - 408 247

Chapter 408: Chapter 247 Chapter 408: Chapter 247 Since he had already gotten through to her, he simply brought it up.

“I brought some chocolates for you on the way back. The boss has switched to a whole new set of molds, shapes we haven’t had before. Do you have time to come home recently?”

“Recently?” Wenyan frowned and thought for a moment, “I guess I won’t have much spare time. Because of the issues online, the crew has rearranged the schedule, and many of my scenes have been clustered together. I probably won’t have any free time for a while. You might as well keep the chocolates in the fridge for now. But isn’t the shelf life of handmade ones quite short? They won’t go bad by the time I get back, will they?”

If that were the case, it would be such a shame.

Before the chocolates could go bad, Shen Jingxiu chuckled lightly at the sight of Wenyan’s distressed expression.

“Then I’ll bring them to you tomorrow.”

“Ah? You’re going to personally deliver them to me? Won’t it be inconvenient? Why not just get a delivery service?”

“It’s okay, I’m not working overtime tomorrow, and it’ll be nice to go for a drive. I’ll just bring the stuff directly to your hotel. I won’t go to the set, so I won’t cause you any unnecessary trouble.”

“That works! I finish work early tomorrow. I’ll check my schedule later to see when I’m free.”

“Okay, send it to me once you’ve checked.”

“Sure!” Wenyan nodded.

Shen Jingxiu couldn’t help curling his lips again at the sight of her bright smile.

“Then don’t forget to take me off ‘Do Not Disturb’.”

“Of course, I removed it as soon as I realized I accidentally put you on ‘Do Not Disturb.’ It’s all set now.”

“That’s good, see you tomorrow then.”

“Alrighty. Drive safely, bye.”

“Yeah, you hang up.”

After the screen went black, Shen Jingxiu went back to the chat interface and scrolled through his conversation with Wenyan again.

Seeing these messages, the gloom that had persisted because she hadn’t been paying attention to him also cleared away.

He took out a box of chocolate, unwrapped it, casually picked one up and put it in his mouth, relishing the sweet taste.

–

Wenyan was in a good mood as well.

Not only had she cleared up a misunderstanding, but she was also about to receive some delicious chocolates.

After putting away her phone, she walked over to Qin Yulong.

“How is it going, did you get in touch with Gu Xiran’s agent? Is he still available?”

Qin Yulong nodded: “Yeah, he’s available. I also reached out to the financiers of ‘Legend of Chang’an.’ They’ve agreed to meet tomorrow. However, they’re not free in the morning, only in the afternoon.”

“We’re not in a hurry by a few hours. Where do you plan to meet? Should I go?”

“It’s near the set, sounds like they want to talk to the director as well and also want to check out the filming progress and results. I heard you on the phone just now; you have a meeting tomorrow afternoon, right?”

“Right, it’s with big brother, he’s bringing us something tasty. But we’ll see, if it doesn’t conflict, I would also like to meet the financiers of ‘Legend of Chang’an.'”

“That’s also good.”

As they were talking, Qin Yulong’s phone suddenly started beeping incessantly.

She quickly glanced at it and suddenly frowned.

“The news sure spread fast.”

“What news?” Wenyan was curious.

“About the replacement. I don’t know how it got out, but it’s already being discussed online that Xun Letian is definitely going to be replaced. People are starting to guess who will take over.”

“…” Wenyan thought for a moment, “Could it be Dai Yang? He’s probably the one who can’t stand to see Xun Letian succeed the most right now. Forget that we actually have that plan; even if we didn’t, he might stir up the topic anyway.”

Qin Yulong nodded: “That’s very possible. But what irritates me more is that there are always people trying to drag you down.”

“What now? Saying I’m using my status as your golden backer to get seedy deals and swap out people?”

“Pretty much along those lines.”

“Whatever.” Wenyan shrugged, “Let them talk. Someday I’ll slap them in the face, but not just yet.”

“Oh? So do you have any plans?”

Wenyan pinched her fingers: “Just a little thought for now, I’ll see if there’s a right opportunity later. Some people just have too much time on their hands. What’s wrong with relying on my own agent? It’s not like I stole someone else’s. Let’s secure Gu Xiran first; we can’t delay any longer. I won’t even have time to write my movie.”

“Don’t worry, we’ll nail it down tomorrow. Come on, I’ll take you back to the hotel.”
