Gu Ruochu sat up on the bed. "I have some filming to do. I need to prepare for the set."
"Ruochu."
"What's the matter?" Gu Ruochu combed her hair with her fingers and stared at him with a puzzled expression. "Do you have something to tell me? Don't you have to go to work at this hour?"
"Of course." Huo Nanchen stood up. "I'll drive you to the set."
"Sure."
When Gu Ruochu finished filming on the set, Wang Gang walked over and informed her that they would film the final scenes in a different location. The production team would be leaving later that night.
Huo Nanchen was in a meeting when Gu Ruochu gave him a call. The other employees at the meeting were stunned when they saw President Huo answer his phone.
In the past, Huo Nanchen was harsh to anyone who dared to answer their phone during a company meeting. Now, the employees watched in disbelief as Huo Nanchen paced around the lounge on the top floor with one hand in his pocket. There was a faint smile on his face.
They concluded that he must have been talking to the Young Madam.
The employees could not resist the urge to gossip about President Huo's relationship as he took the call in the lounge.
"Are you done filming your drama?"
"Yes."
Gu Ruochu's background was noisy, and Huo Nanchen could not hear her voice clearly.
He even heard as if she was chatting with another person while she was on the phone with him.
How could she ignore him like that?
"Since you're done filming the drama, can you come over to the company and pick me up." Huo Nanchen spoke in a light tone, causing Gu Ruochu to hesitate for a moment before she replied, "I won't be returning tonight because a few scenes in the drama will have to be filmed in a different location. The production team will be leaving tonight. I was calling to update you about the changes."
Gu Ruochu had edited a promotional trailer for the movie and posted it on the Internet. The beauty and sophistication of the film attracted good reviews. Fans were excited about the ancient drama, and Jin Ye looked stunning as the lead male actor in the movie.
The netizens were surprised that the director of the movie was the Young Madam of the Huo family. That piece of information caused quite a stir. Gu Ruochu's followers on Weibo skyrocketed.
"You're leaving tonight?"
"Yes. I have to hang up now."
Gu Ruochu did not even wait for Huo Nanchen's response when she hung up the phone. His smile gradually turned into a frown. The employees watching him from afar did not understand why his expression had suddenly changed.
"..."
"Are you done talking to your husband?" Jin Ye sat next to her and drank a beer. There were several beer cans beside his legs.
Gu Ruochu and Jin Ye were sitting on a stone slab. After they had finished filming, many members of the film crew had not left. Instead, they had found an empty spot and started a barbecue.
"Mmm." Gu Ruochu glanced at him and touched the beer in his hand. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Jin Ye."
Jin Ye smiled and suddenly lowered his voice. "You speak as if this is your first time meeting me."
He looked up at her and asked casually, "Did your mother only give birth to you and your sister or did you have a younger brother?"
"She only gave birth to me. Gu Yanwei is her adopted daughter."
Gu Ruochu seemed reluctant to talk about the Gu family.
However, Jin Ye thought that something did not add up. In his memory, Gu Ruochu had a brother. Jin Ye had never met Gu Yanwei and did not recall Gu Ruochu having a sister. All he remembered was playing with Gu Ruochu and her brother in a beautiful garden.
When Gu Ruochu mentioned Gu Yanwei, Jin Ye remembered that the two sisters did not get along.
