When Fang Xue returned home, Fu Zonghong and Fang Wanting were both at home.
The sky was about to turn dark. The street lamps and the lights in the house were already on. The bright chandelier made the furnishings in the house look white.
Fu Zonghong was sitting on the sofa watching an educational channel. The only sound in the empty living room was the sound of the TV channel.
Fang Wanting was in the kitchen cooking dinner with the auntie.
"Uncle." Fang Xue walked to the other side of the sofa and sat down.
"You're back," Fu Zonghong replied.
"Where's Mom?" Fang Xue looked around and heard some movement in the kitchen.
"In the kitchen," Fu Zonghong replied. He did not say anything else and continued to focus on the TV.
Fang Xue's face was a little bitter. She watched for a while and really did not understand what was so interesting about this childish children's show. However, since Fu Zonghong did not take the initiative to talk to her, she did not say anything.
"I'll go help Mom." She then got up and walked to the kitchen.
Fang Xue saw Fang Wanting and felt wronged. "Mom."
The auntie hurriedly greeted her. "Miss, you're back!"
Fang Wanting saw that Fang Xue was still unhappy when she came back. She did not say anything and just asked her to help.
She chatted with the auntie affectionately. "This soup is a little bland. Old Fu's appetite hasn't been very good recently."
"Madam really cares about Sir." The auntie smiled.
Fang Wanting had a faint smile on her face. "Old Fu doesn't take care of himself, so I have to take care of him from the side."
"Sir and Madam are really loving."
Fang Wanting smiled. "What's there to be loving? We're already an old married couple."
"…"
Six dishes and one soup were all ready. Fang Wanting instructed Fang Xue to carry out the dishes.
She also carried out a plate of colorful stir-fried vegetables.
"Old Fu, it's time for dinner."
Fu Zonghong responded. He picked up the remote control and pressed the pause button. Then, he got up and walked towards the restaurant.
He was dressed in casual clothes and looked much younger. If it weren't for the wrinkles on his forehead, he would have looked like he was in his early forties.
Fu Zonghong looked at the dishes that were obviously prepared by Fang Wanting. His expression softened. "Thank you."
Fang Wanting Wen Wan smiled and said, "You should eat more. That's the greatest compliment you can give me."
Fang Xue said jealously, "Mom only has eyes for Uncle. Even I, as her daughter, have to take a step back."
Fang Wanting smiled helplessly and said, "You're already so old, yet you're still jealous like a child."
Fu Zonghong laughed.
The family of three sat down and ate quietly. At first, they didn't talk.
It was Fang Wanting who spoke first. "Xue Ruo, why did you come back at this time? Have you finished filming your scenes? "
Fang Xueruo looked depressed and lost her appetite even more. She said dejectedly, "No, something happened in the crew, so we can only put it on hold. The male lead of the crew has been changed, and several important supporting actresses have been terminated."
Fang Wanting frowned. "Haven't you been filming for a long time? Isn't it a waste of time? "
Fu Zonghong said unhappily, "A man who cheats on a girl and has an affair should be banned. How can anyone like such a person? There are so many messy people in the entertainment industry. "
Fang Xue couldn't help but be surprised. She didn't expect her uncle to know about this. Didn't he usually not pay attention to the entertainment industry?
Fang Wanting sighed. "Xue Ruo was also implicated. She worked so hard for so many months and even fell sick from exhaustion. In the end, all her efforts went down the drain …"
"In business, there are losses and profits. High returns mean high risks. If you don't investigate thoroughly before investing, you can only bear the consequences if something happens."
Fang Wanting looked at Fu Zonghong and said in agreement, "Now that things have come to this, don't think too much. There is more than one crew in your industry."
Fang Xue was even more upset. She looked at Fu Zonghong and her eyes suddenly turned red. "I've been banned. I have no more resources."
Fang Wanping was surprised and asked repeatedly, "What's going on?"
Fang Xue's voice choked with grief. "Ever since my sister … on the Internet, my life hasn't been easy. She has many friends in the entertainment industry, so my resources have been cut off … I don't care about that, because Brother Chang can still give me some resources. But now something has happened …"
Fang Xue lowered her head and tears dripped down.
Fang Wanting's heart ached when she heard this, but she looked at Fu Zonghong hesitantly and finally sighed. "She has always been angry … Forget it, she can take a break."
Fang Wanting suddenly thought of something and said, "Why don't you go to your Uncle Fu's company and help him out? You can learn how to manage a company. You have been engaged with Brother Chang for so long, it's time to consider marriage. Learn some management skills and share some of Brother Chang's burdens. "
Fang Wanting looked at Fu Zonghong and asked for his opinion. "Brother Fu, what do you think?"
Fu Zonghong frowned and said, "You were so insistent on joining the entertainment industry. Now you run away when you encounter problems. Can you solve the problem?" He didn't know what was so good about the entertainment industry. One after another, they all went to the entertainment industry to join the live broadcast industry.
Fang Xue lowered her head and looked gloomy.
Fang Wanting saw that Fu Zonghong was angry and quickly comforted him. "Brother Fu, don't be angry. She is depressed because of some setbacks. Isn't she taking things too hard?"
Fu Zonghong put down his chopsticks, stood up and was about to leave the dining room.
Fang Wanting quickly stood up and chased after him. "Brother Fu, you're not eating anymore?"
"I'm not eating anymore." Fu Zonghong left immediately.
"Brother Fu …" Fang Wanting called after him, but he didn't stop.
For a moment, the dining room was eerily silent.
Fang Xue didn't expect Uncle Fu to leave just like that. It was the first time she saw Uncle Fu disrespecting her mother. She couldn't react in time.
Not long after, Fu Zonghong came downstairs. He had changed into a suit and said, "My old friend invited me out for a drink. Don't wait for me tonight."
Fang Wanting said considerately, "Be careful. Don't drink too much."
"Okay," Fu Zonghong replied casually, then turned and left.
Fang Wanting watched as Fu Zonghong's back disappeared at the door. She stood for a while, then sat down on the chair and her face suddenly turned cold.
Fang Xue hadn't seen her mother's expression other than a smile for a long time. She was as cold as a cicada in winter. She carefully said, "Mom?"
Fang Wanping glanced at her indifferently. "Fang Xueruo, what did I teach you?" Fang Xueruo had played a good hand, but now it was ruined. Fang Wanping's painstaking efforts over the years had gone down the drain.
How could she have such a stupid daughter?
It was also because she didn't teach her well. Fang Xue used to be able to seduce a man using such a simple method. She naively thought that she could control everything. Before she really won, she couldn't be careless.
Fang Xue was silent for a moment, then she said unwillingly, "Is blood relations that important?"
Fang Wanting didn't say anything. She used to think that as long as one wanted to, even if they were blood relatives, they could turn against each other and never see each other again. But now, she realized that blood relations weren't that easy to sever.
"Xue Ruo." Fang Wanting's expression quickly softened. She gestured for Fang Xue to come over.
Fang Xue moved her seat and sat next to Fang Wanting.
"Xue Ruo, you've been dating Ah You for so long. It's time for you to accept him," Fang Wanting said gently. "Ah You is infatuated with you. You have to cherish him."
Fang Xue bit her lower lip. Her eyes flashed with a trace of unwillingness. "Mom …"
"If you continue to delay him, Mom won't be on your side." Fang Wanting gently patted Fang Xue's hand. "Marriage is a woman's second reincarnation. You're very lucky to be able to marry a man who only has you in his heart."
Fang Xue leaned her head gently on Fang Wanting's shoulder and said coquettishly, "You keep speaking up for him. Am I still your daughter?"
"Silly child." Fang Wanting rebuked. "It's because you're my daughter that I'm saying this."
Fang Xue's eyes narrowed. She remained silent and didn't say anything else.
Fu Zonghong got into the car and left. The driver asked respectfully, "Sir, where are you going?"
Fu Zonghong was silent for a moment before he gave him an address.
It was his property in another place, some distance away from here.
Fu Zonghong didn't have any old friends looking for him. He just suddenly didn't want to stay at home.
He realized that he had never really seen the two women in his family clearly.
Many years ago, he didn't know when, but he only knew one thing. The mother and daughter had always been wronged and bullied by Yun Ruo. Yun Ruo had a bad temper. She was arrogant and vicious. She didn't have the demeanor of a noble lady at all. She was neurotic all day long.
Later on, his temper also became irritable. He lost patience with his only daughter. Every time they met, they would quarrel endlessly.
It was only recently that he learned about Fu Yun from other sources. It was as if he had just gotten to know her. It completely overturned his understanding of her.
He didn't know that Fu Yun would be so popular if she had such a good temper.
A few days ago, he secretly found Fu Yun's live broadcast room. The first entertainment app was installed on his phone. Since the first day he watched the live broadcast, he secretly followed every live broadcast. He even learned how to send gifts.
Recently, Wen Wen also opened a social media account and caused a stir on the Internet. He even specially registered an account to follow and searched for it every day.
Compared to his disapproval of Fang Xue and Fu Yun's involvement in the entertainment industry and live broadcast industry, Fu Zonghong had a different attitude in front of Wen Wen.
He was very proud to see that his grandson was so popular. He watched countless videos and pictures of him every day.
Because he realized that he didn't pay enough attention to Fu Yun in the past and understood some of the reasons for her resentment, he felt guilty and didn't dare to appear in front of them righteously.
Therefore, no matter how much Fu Zonghong wanted to see Wen Wen and Fu Yun, he didn't take the initiative to appear. He only occasionally drove the car to the flower garden or outside the neighborhood where they lived. Sometimes, he could see them.
Fu Zonghong went to the new house. His personal assistant was already there and had cleaned the house.
Recently, his personal assistant had a task to report to Fu Zonghong about the whereabouts of Fu Yun and her son every day. After knowing that Wen Wen had started to take many courses recently, Fu Zonghong was very proud.
"What a good child." He had already found a suitable teacher. Even if she didn't come back to live with the Fu family, she wouldn't reject finding a teacher for her child, right? Now that he heard that his child had found a teacher who was better than him, he was proud but also a little disappointed. He felt that he was useless.
However, he heard that these teachers were hired by the celebrity called Si Yue? Fu Zonghong was a little dissatisfied. Why was he so concerned? He must be up to no good. He had to watch out for him.
His personal assistant also said, "In two days' time, it will be the premiere of the movie that Little Young Master is involved in."
Fu Zonghong's eyebrows relaxed. "Get an invitation."
It was Sun Sun's first movie. He had to see it with his own eyes.
On the other hand, Fu Yun Ruo and Wen Wen carried their luggage to report to the set.
This time, even Si Yue went with them.
Fu Yun Ruo was curious. "Aren't you not involved?"
Si Yue said, "I'm the producer and the biggest investor." There was nothing wrong with going to the set to inspect.
Wen Wen Ruo was dissatisfied. "Why are you in the same car as us?" When they were face to face, no matter where they looked, they could see each other. How annoying!
Si Yue raised his eyebrows. "We have the same manager." There was nothing wrong with going to the same set in the same car.
Wen Wen snorted loudly.
Fu Yun Ruo looked at Wen Wen and felt helpless. She felt that Wen Wen had already accepted the fact that Si Yue was her father. Otherwise, why would she be so willful? Wen Wen was very sensible in front of others and would never throw a tantrum.
There was a saying that said, those who were favored had nothing to fear.
In the past, when she did not know the truth, no matter how well she got along with Si Yue, she rarely threw a tantrum.
Perhaps Si Yue also knew that she was special, so she tolerated Wen Wen's awkwardness and even childishly fought with her.
If Fu Yun could not get involved, she would not get involved.
When the car arrived at the hotel booked by the set, they entered the hotel quietly.
Yuan Xin booked a suite for them. There was a room inside and another outside. She and Wen Wen could have a room each.
The suite was very luxurious. Fu Yun Ruo felt that the production team was really giving them face by giving them such good treatment.
Wen Wen and Fu Yun Ruo stayed in a luxurious hotel together. They felt that it was a novel experience and were a little excited. They could not help but jump on the bed. When Fu Yun Ruo saw this, she felt embarrassed.
Fu Yun Ruo felt that children who pretended to be mature were very cute, but she liked Wen Wen's childish behavior even more. Hence, she was very happy.
Not long after, the hotel delivered dinner. There was a children's meal and three set meals.
Si Yue and Yuan Xin also came.
Si Yue's room was opposite. It was also a suite and Yuan Xin was also staying together.
This time, Wen Wen Ruo saw that Yuan Xin was there and did not say anything.
Yuan Xin had already said what needed to be said in the car. During dinner, he did not say anything and only reminded them to rest early.
After the meal boxes were put away, Si Yue Ruo and Yuan Xin also said goodbye and left.
Si Yue looked at Fu Yun Ruo with a gentle gaze. "Call me if you need anything. I'll be opposite."
Wen Wen was extremely unhappy. He stood in front of Fu Yun Ruo and wanted to block Si Yue's view, but his height was completely negligible.
Fu Yun Ruo nodded. "Goodnight."
"Goodnight."
After the two of them left, Wen Wen's little expression was still very unhappy. "Mom, you were talking to Uncle Yue again!"
Fu Yun Ruo tapped his little nose. "Alright, let's hurry up and take a shower. We'll sleep later."
They still had to wake up early the next day and had to rest well.
Wen Wen Ruo snorted.
Fu Yun Ruo suddenly said in surprise, "We have a little piggy monster in our house!"
"???" Wen Wen Ruo's face was blank. What monster?
"Because he always snorts. If that's not a piggy, then what is?" Fu Yun Ruo said seriously.
"!!!" Wen Wen Ruo reacted. "Mom, you're making fun of me!" She actually said that he was a piggy!
Fu Yun Ruo saw Wen Wen Ruo's angry face and quickly surrendered. "Mom was wrong."
"Hmph!"
"Pfft!" Fu Yun Ruo could not help but laugh.
Wen Wen Ruo said, "… I don't want to talk to you anymore!"
Wen Wen Ruo was so angry that he became a blowfish. He did not snort anymore!
Fu Yun Ruo hurriedly went to coax the child.
The next day, Wen Wen Ruo and Fu Yun Ruo were affectionate again. He completely forgot that he had said that he would ignore Fu Yun Ruo last night.
The production team had already started filming for a few days. When they arrived, the production team was already on track.
When Wen Wen Ruo and the others arrived, the director and assistant director of the production team specially came to welcome them.
Yuan Xin was in charge of external communication. Fu Yun Ruo only needed to smile.
After the greetings, Wen Wen Ruo went to try on his makeup.
Although Wen Wen Ruo was only a small male lead who did not have many scenes, he still had a temporary dressing room.
The little guy wore two custom-made sect robes. Compared to the immortal aura of an adult, the child version was very cute, like a white bun.
The child's skin was good and did not need much makeup. He wore a small wig and looked like a little fairy.
The photographer took a set photo of him. Fu Yun Ruo could not hold back and discussed with the photographer to send the photo to her to keep as a memento.
Other than looking like a little fairy, he also dressed like a little beggar. His life before he entered the immortal sect was also full of ink.
After taking two sets of set photos, the morning basically passed just like that.
Wen Wen Ruo only officially started filming in the afternoon.
Fu Yun Ruo watched from the side without blinking. Si Yue Ruo did not know where he came from and sat beside Fu Yun Ruo.
This was the first time this new production team saw Si Yue Ruo take the initiative to sit beside a member of the opposite sex. They were inevitably surprised and could not help but sneak a few more glances.
Si Yue Ruo was used to being noticed and did not care, but Fu Yun Ruo did not notice at all.
Si Yue Ruo smiled and said proudly, "Wen Wen Ruo is like me." In terms of acting, he was full of talent.
Fu Yun Ruo was also very proud, but she was also worried. "Will it help him grow through excessive enthusiasm?"
"It won't," Si Yue Ruo said with certainty.
Now that they let Wen Wen Ruo film, it was very easy and the time was very short. It was similar to playing around. The production team did not dare to pressure Wen Wen, and they did not dare to do so either.
Wen Wen Ruo was very popular in the production team. Whether it was because they wanted to curry favor with Wen Wen's connections or because Wen Wen was very likable, the entire production team expressed that they liked Wen Wen very much.
He was like a fish in water in the production team, so his leave application was very smooth. The production team did not have any objections at all.
Fu Yun Ruo attached great importance to Wen Wen's first movie premiere. She specially wore an ice blue long dress and specially dressed up. She even tied her long black hair into big wavy curls.
Fu Yun Ruo rarely put on makeup, so her exquisite dressing stunned everyone present when she appeared.
Si Yue Ruo had seen many different kinds of beauties, but only Fu Yun Ruo's beauty moved his heart.
He did not hide the admiration in his eyes. "Very beautiful."
Wen Wen Ruo was like a happy little bee, circling Fu Yun Ruo a few times. She looked up at her and praised happily, "Mommy is so beautiful."
Fu Yun Ruo beamed. "Wen Wen Ruo is very handsome too."
Wen Wen Ruo wore a custom-made suit and looked cute and cool.
When Fu Yun Ruo looked up at Si Yue, her gaze paused and she returned the favor. "You're very handsome too."
Si Yue Ruo was in a good mood. "Thank you for your compliment."
The group of people headed to the venue of the premiere. There were already many reporters waiting outside. They were full of anticipation for this movie. Regardless of whether it was good or bad, they just wanted to get first-hand information.
They couldn't wait to interview her.
Invitees entered the venue one after another. The reporters were able to name every guest that was invited.
"Isn't that the Golden Mouth Film Critic?"
"Even Mr. Jiang is here. He's famous for his sharp tongue."
"With Si Yue around, she's the only one that Mr. Jiang has publicly expressed his admiration for."
"…"
Fu Yun and the others did not enter through the main entrance. Instead, they were led in through a small, low-key door by the staff.
There were quite a lot of people at the premiere. Many of them had already arrived, but everyone clearly remembered that they were here for business and sat down properly.
Si Yue led Fu Yun Ruo and Wen Wen to the front row. "Our seats are here." This was the best seat in the entire competition.
The moment Fu Yun went over, she could feel the gazes from all directions.
Fortunately, Fu Yun was used to being stared at, so she did not lose her composure.
There were three seats. Wen Wen quickly recognized the middle seat and sat down.
Si Yue didn't say anything. He sat on Wen Wen's left while Fu Yun sat on his right.
They waited quietly for the opening ceremony.
A staff member walked over and whispered a few words in Si Yue's ear. Si Yue nodded and the staff member left.
Fu Yun Ruo turned her head and looked over. "What's wrong?"
Si Yue smiled. "Nothing." Then he asked, "Are you nervous?"
Fu Yun Ruo answered honestly, "A little."
Si Yue chuckled. "I'm a little nervous too."
Fu Yun Ruo was surprised. Was that for real?
"It's true. I wasn't even this nervous during my first movie premiere."
He was the male lead in his first movie and shot to fame.
Since he was young, he had never experienced what it meant to be nervous.
However, this pair of mother and son made him experience many unfamiliar emotions.
Wen Wen Ruo raised her head and looked left and right.
He imagined sitting in the middle to separate the two of them, but it was completely useless. His short stature couldn't separate them at all.
He suspected that the two of them had neglected him.
Wen Wen Ruo was secretly sulking.
But soon, the premiere of the movie began.
The director and the production team representative went up to say a few words. Without much nonsense, they quickly got to the point and started to play the movie.
The lights dimmed and the big screen in front of them lit up.
Fu Yun Ruo unconsciously sat up straight and stared intently at the big screen, afraid that she would miss anything.
The opening of the movie was a magnificent scene that captured everyone's attention and attracted the audience's attention.
The special effects of the movie were produced by a foreign team that the production team spent a lot of money on, and the effect was very obvious.
To be honest, many of the scenes in the movie were filmed by Fu Yun Ruo with her own eyes, but the effect was completely different from the live scene.
Actually, she didn't feel much when she was watching it live because there were no special effects. Instead, it was quite funny to see the thrilling expressions and actions in the dry background.
But now, with the special effects and the tight plot acting, the audience was able to follow the ups and downs of the emotions in the movie.
Until the end of the movie, she was still in a daze for a long time.
She didn't know who was the first to clap, but it was exceptionally clear in the pin-drop silence.
Then, it was sparse and loud applause that didn't stop for a long time.
Fu Yun Ruo kept clapping her hands hard. She was so proud that her eyes were filled with tears. "Wen Wen, you're amazing! Mom is proud of you! "
Wen Wen Ruo's small chest straightened. She wanted to laugh happily, but she felt that she should be reserved. She pursed her lips hard, but she couldn't stop the corners of her lips from rising.
If Fu Yun Ruo knew, this movie would definitely be popular.
Even without filters, this was a good movie that was worth watching twice and thrice.
