Sweet Wife in My Arms

Chapter 720: Going Down The Pan

Not a word from her could turn the good into bad, and the bad into right.

“You’re really crazy.” Luo Lin suddenly stepped forward and pinched Yan Huan’s face. “You’re surely out of your mind.”

“Hehe…” Yan Huan smiled and said, “We should learn from other people’s strengths and make up for our weaknesses. If so many people like her, there must be something outstanding about her.”

“I don’t want to mention anything else first, but I’d like to express my gratitude to Director Huang. If I didn’t shoot the drama ‘Divorced’ by Director Huang previously, I am not sure what my ranking would be right now.” Well, the remuneration she received from the drama, ‘Divorced’ was the basis of everything she possessed now.

In fact, it was reasonable for her to present herself as a form of support. She owed it to Director Huang for the movie ticket this time.

“Aren’t you going?” Yan Huan asked Luo Lin again.

“No.” Luo Lin was upset. What bothered her the most was The Aster and now Yan Huan was telling her that she wanted to watch The Aster. Was this not a slap in the face? It was indeed a hard slap. Was she really intended to make her face swollen?

“You’re my manager.” Once Yan Huan finished her words, she stood right there, waiting for someone to pack her luggage.

“Just you wait.” Luo stood up abruptly and went to get her clothes. When she came out, she had already gotten changed. She then passed a mask to Yan Huan. “Take it, don’t let people see your face, or I’ll get angry.”

Yan Huan wore the mask properly, however in Luo Lin’s opinion, she still looked deliberately suspicious.

When they arrived at the cinema, they found that this was indeed the new year’s series. How many movie tickets had been sold with such a big crowd? Moreover, as Luo Lin took a look at the ratio of the movie schedule, she felt envious yet jealous. The Aster comprised almost 60% of the total scheduling of movies. A total of six movies by respectable actresses were released and all had a rather good quality. However, The Aster alone had occupied most of the movie schedule, was this not an act of bullying?

The cinema could not be blamed as it would surely arrange for a more profitable movie to be aired. Of course, there would be a proper delay in time. Yan Huan knew that this movie, The Aster had been delayed for two months. Anyway, the box office, audience reviews, and reputation would be an excellent harvest.

As for the box office, she did not worry too much because she knew the exact amount. Regardless of how deeply troubled Luo Lin was, she would never tell Luo Lin.

Ah, I was reborn, I knew what would happen in the future and of course, the box office of The Aster.

Certainly, she was not dumb so she knew some of the things were better concealed in the heart.

Yan Huan walked over, just like everyone else, and bought a bucket of popcorn and two cups of coke, then she handed a cup to Luo Lin. Luo Lin was dumbfounded.

Are we here to seek information or to watch a movie?

For sure they were here for a movie. Who said that I am here to seek information? What information? There was a whole lot of information on the internet. Yan Huan would not believe if she was told that Luo Lin had no way of finding out the news herself.

Luo Lin seriously thought that Yan Huan’s brain was malfunctioned. Her own movie was stuck in between but she was still relaxed and had not taken any initiatives at all. Moreover, now she was thinking to watch someone else’s movie.

Did she not afraid that her movie would go down the pan?

When they entered the theatre hall, Luo Lin was relieved to see only a few people. Perhaps, the good box office was due to the intention of the theatre chain to earn more money. However, a moment later, there was an increase in the number of audiences, causing Luo Lin to feel like crying.

From their conversation, it could be known that all audiences were real human beings and of course, ordinary viewers.

Was the movie really that nice until it became a hit movie among people? If so, the effort they put in and the money of more than 500 million that they had invested for Before the Beginning would be futile.

The movie began but Yan Huan was still at ease as she enjoyed drinking her coke while eating her popcorn.

Luo Lin was here with a prickly heart in the beginning. However, as she continued to watch the movie, she started to admire the plot and forget to find needles in a haystack. She followed through the storyline from start to finish.

Toward the end of the film, others revealed the face of not getting enough of the movie, accompanied by tears on their faces. As for her, she was drenched with cold sweat.

Yan Huan had just finished her popcorn as well as her coke.

She stood up and pulled up her scarf again, trying to block her entire face. Then, she walked out along with the crowd. From the beginning to the end, she was not recognized by anyone. In fact, Yan Huan had a habit of watching newly released movies with Lu Yi. Back then, Lu Yi had never set foot in the cinema, but later on, he was ‘forced’ to go to the cinema with her almost every few days.

Yan Huan had a weird taste. She liked to watch romantic movies but sometimes she favored horror movies. Other women would scream their lungs out every so often, on the other hand, she would be so into the movie.

She would give her opinion every time after watching a movie. Of course, she would be the one saying while Lu Yi listened to her. Lu Yi was indeed a good listener. When Yan Huan recalled those days, she felt as though it was the happiest moment in her life. However, her heart was still in pain. Some people left and took away the happiness, leaving behind those unforgettable and memorable memories that she was reluctant to forget, along with a lifetime of longing.

She sat in the car and held her bag in her arms. Later, she took out her cell phone and the screen of the mobile phone was facing her eyes. It also reflected something that belonged to the past – a photo she took with Lu Yi previously. She stared at it quietly without saying a word. Luo Lin thought she was worried about Before the Beginning which was why she was reluctant to speak.

Indeed, the thing she was afraid the most had occurred.

The Aster was an excellent movie, and Su Muran’s performance was also praiseworthy. The national movie queen in this field would also fall on her. The success of The Aster was perhaps a reflection of the failure of Before the Beginning.

In fact, she could not imagine the fact that Yan Huan had put in much effort in preparation to film Before the Beginning and this might be the last movie in her lifetime. She knew clearly that the Yan Huan now was fully occupied with the death of Lu Yi. Lu Yi’s death had taken away all her expectations and vigor. The energy that she had left now was only enough for her to reminisce about her past but not for acting.

Perhaps, it was seriously the end of Yan Huan’s acting career in her life. Luo Lin hoped to be able to describe it with the word, wonderful, instead of naming her a box office elixir. If the last movie became a poison, it was a denial of Yan Huan’s past success in other roles and not to mention, all her previous efforts.
