She sat beside Mrs. Mo and said, “Yun Chen and I bought a storefront today. If you and Father need something to do, you may come and help me out when we begin operating for business.”

Mrs. Mo nodded and leaned against Mo Li’s shoulder while weeping uncontrollably.

Feeling extremely terrible, Mo Xun walked out while Chun Ling followed suit.

When they reached the door, Mo Xun lost his temper and hollered at Chun Ling, “Are you happy now!?!”

“I am. Since your sister has agreed to take care of your parents from now on, we’ll have fewer things to worry about.”

“They’re my parents too, not my sister’s alone.”

“I’m just sparing a thought for our future.”

“…”

Mo Li could not bear to let her parents continue being ill-treated by her sister-in-law any longer. Hence, she told them to pack their belongings and move back to Sanqiao Estate with her immediately.

Due to the fact that she had already planned to free up the apartment on the 32nd floor for her parents to live in in the future, she had left all the furniture and electronics intact inside the apartment.

Hence, her parents could just move in straight away now.

Mr. and Mrs. Mo initially wanted to take things one step at a time. However, due to Mo Li and No. 8’s insistence, they had no choice but to move into Sanqiao Estate.

——

Although none of the crew members and cast expressed their disdain openly, Yu Caiwei was well aware that they were all despising her greatly.

She had overheard some gossip about her when she went to the washroom.

There was also a clear disparity between their attitudes toward her and toward Fang Erlan.

She was in a terrible mood, just like Fang Erlan, who had become the target of castigation online.

Hence, the only way she could comfort herself was to read all the harsh criticism and malicious comments directed at Fang Erlan on the internet. Her mood was instantly lifted after reading them.

While she was indulging in the sea of comments, Fang Erlan happened to walk past the chair she was sitting in and caught sight of her mobile phone’s screen.

After seeing photos of herself on Yu Caiwei’s mobile phone, Fang Erlan decided to stand behind Yu Caiwei for a while longer.

Upon hearing Yu Caiwei’s laughter, she questioned coldly, “What’s so funny?”

Yu Caiwei hurriedly put her mobile phone down and turned around to look at Fang Erlan. The smile on her face instantly vanished and she retorted, “I’ll laugh whenever I feel like it.”

“Oh… seems like you’re very amused by the joke that you had created all by yourself. I’m starting to think that the compensatory sum that we had asked from you is way too little. But I heard that your sister has just passed away a while ago, so how come you’re laughing so loudly? Were you really not that close with your sister? I would be crying my eyes out if I were you. You actually have the cheek to still laugh,” quipped Fang Erlan, who glared at her before returning to her seat.

Yu Caiwei scowled at Fang Erlan as her mood was instantly ruined again.

She had suffered a huge setback in her career, lost to her rival in love, and lost her family member.

Yu Caiwei felt like she had hit rock bottom.

She recalled the times during her debut in the entertainment industry. It was probably the worst time of her life.

She was well aware of what underhanded means she had resorted to in order to achieve fame and success.

There was no way she could do anything to Fang Erlan.

She would have lived the thirty-odd years of her life in vain if she still failed to recognize that fact by now.

All of a sudden, the flashback of her bumping into Xiao Chenyang in the elevator that night popped up in her mind.

She had a strong feeling that he wished he could kill her.

She was terrified by the menacing way he was glowering at her.

Yu Caiwei had never been intimidated by someone’s aura before.

Last night was a first.

Her legs turned into jelly the moment she exited the elevator.

Her sister’s warning was still lingering in her ears.

She sat on the chair with a look of melancholy and grief.

Upon the sight of Director Gao, Yu Caiwei stood up and greeted her, “Sis Gao.”

However, Director Gao pretended not to see her and simply walked past her. Yu Caiwei took chase and said, “Hey, Friend, I’m sorry. It was my bad. I promise I won’t create trouble for you anymore. Will that do?”

“Please don’t. I can’t afford to be your friend. All you do is rip your friends off and take advantage of them. I’m really afraid of you, troublemaker. Had I known that you’ve become so vicious, I wouldn’t have cast you as the supporting actress. Caiwei, you’re really horrifying.”

“Sis Gao, Sis Gao, don’t say that. Forgive me just this once on account of our friendship that has lasted for so many years. I really won’t do it again.”

Director Gao starred at her apprehensively and said, “Save it. Erlan made you fork out so much money this time. How could you possibly take it lying down? I understand you very well. You definitely wouldn’t.”

“You’ve really mistaken me this time. I’ve really forgotten about it. There’s nothing I can do since she’s got such a formidable backer.” She placed one arm over Director Gao’s shoulder and continued solemnly, “So, Friend, I swear to you, if I ever do something like that again, it’ll truly be the end of our friendship.”

Seeing how sincere she was, Director Gao said, “I’m giving you one last chance. This is the very, very last. Otherwise, we really can’t be friends anymore.”

Yu Caiwei nodded profusely and said, “Got it.”

The two of them proceeded to Director Gao’s resting area, after which Director Gao said, “Are you brainless? You gave away so much money to Erlan’s management studio for nothing. Why did you even provoke her? If you did it for Yan Ge’s sake, it really wasn’t worth it. You’re a veteran in this country and yet you still don’t understand that relationships come and go. There’s no point in holding on to something that won’t work out. You’re a great catch yourself. There’s no need to stoop to that level.”

“I’ve given up on him. I really have this time. I no longer harbor any feelings for him. I’ve seen through it all,” Yu Caiwei said softly.

“I hope you really have. Otherwise, you’ll be the one suffering. I really take my hats off to you for your audacity. If the person you had framed was just a small fry who has no background, she probably wouldn’t be able to make a comeback in this industry. However, you should’ve considered Fang Erlan’s background. She may be a fresh face but she’s not an ordinary newbie. Okay, I won’t go on about the rest,” said Director Gao, who then opened a packet of bread and began munching on it.

“Sis Gao, don’t you think that Fang Erlan’s bodyguard is really intimidating?”

“You mean that hunk? He’s just really quiet and aloof. Intimidating? I don’t think so.”

“I find him terrifying and daunting.”

Director Gao disagreed, “You’re reading too much into things. However, if he really isn’t Erlan’s cousin, I can’t figure out why he’s willing to be her bodyguard. I really think he deserves better.”

“I have a hunch that there’s something more to his relationship with Fang Erlan.”

Director Gao said, “Who cares what their relationship is? They’re definitely not in a special relationship. Otherwise, why would Fang Erlan start dating Yan Ge? Let’s not care about them, that’s their private lives.”

….

Fang Erlan was out of sorts for the rest of the day.

She had rarely had any bad takes. However, she had a whole string of bad takes today. No one said anything about her blunders since they understood her plight.

She constantly tried to get herself into the mood and sort her feelings out, to no avail.

After a day of filming, she heaved a sigh of relief when it finally ended.
