1785 The Old Liang Family Residence (3)
“Master Chi, why don’t you stay with me?” Song Yanru said quickly.
“No need, I’ll share a room with my cousin!” Chi Shuyan immediately replied. She was a little worried about letting Qi Hao stay on his own.
Qi Hao also immediately replied, “Film Empress Song, I’ll just share a room with my sister-in-law. When the time comes, I’ll sleep on the floor. It won’t be a problem.”
Qi Hao insisted repeatedly, so Song Yanru didn’t insist anymore. In fact, she really wanted to stay in the same room as Master Chi so that the latter could better protect her, but she really wasn’t used to someone else invading her privacy. Besides, what if she was mistaken about the old Liang family residence?
If something really happened, she could discuss sharing a room with Master Chi. Master Chi probably wouldn’t refuse. Thinking this, Song Yanru relaxed and immediately had everyone go back to their rooms to put away their luggage. Later, they would follow her to the front courtyard to meet the others.
“See you later!”
He Liuqing didn’t go back to her room immediately, but followed Song Yanru to her room first. She didn’t say much on the way. It wasn’t until they entered the room that she couldn’t help but say, “Yanru, even if that young lady really is some Master, your attitude toward her is too good. Some people won’t be grateful to you just because of your good attitude. Instead, they’ll easily push their luck and take advantage of you!”
Song Yanru knew that her manager had never seen Master Chi’s abilities, so she didn’t take Master Chi seriously at all. She wanted to explain so that her manager wouldn’t offend Master Chi. However, she knew Sister He’s stubborn character. If she said too much, Sister He probably wouldn’t believe her. She could only swallow her words. After a long silence, she said earnestly, “Sister He, I know Master Chi is a little young, but she’s different from everyone else. It’s best if you treat her as well as possible.”
He Liuqing still wanted to speak, but Song Yanru interrupted her. “Sister He, this is the only request I have for filming this variety show, okay?”
He Liuqing didn’t know what kind of potion that young lady had given Yanru to make her so protective of her. Since Yanru was asking, however, how could He Liuqing not relent?
She could only nod and say, “Fine, but be careful and don’t be too naive and let others take advantage of you. That Master Chi is too young and too eye-catching. She doesn’t look like a Master at all!”
In fact, she really wanted to ask Yanru where she had found such a young Master. Was she sure she wasn’t a swindler? After a pause, she continued to exhort, “If you can prevent her from appearing on screen during the filming of the variety show, do so; that girl is really too beautiful and will easily steal your limelight.”
After that, He Liuqing left.
Song Yanru couldn’t help but bite her lip when she heard her manager’s words. She saw her face clearly in the mirror not far away. Although she was still beautiful, she wasn’t young at all. There were some wrinkles at the corners and under her eyes. She couldn’t be compared with an 18- or 19-year-old girl at all.
It was indeed good to be young!
Song Yanru didn’t know if she was lamenting or feeling disappointed and jealous.
Chi Shuyan and Qi Hao were both people of action. Not long after putting their luggage down in the room, they went out to wait. Song Yanru and He Liuqing also came out not long after.
The four went downstairs together. Chi Shuyan was low-key and walked behind her cousin. Qi Hao also obediently accompanied his sister-in-law and admired their surroundings. While the old Liang family residence looked very rundown on the outside, the interior was still pretty alright.
Song Yanru wanted to strike up a conversation with Master Chi on the way, but her manager was beside her, so she couldn’t say much. Besides, she was going to film the variety show tonight, and she didn’t have time to think about anything else, so she could only remain silent.
As for He Liuqing, she was quite satisfied with the young lady’s behavior. Although her looks were too eye-catching, she looked quite well-behaved at first glance. Still, as the saying went, one might know a person for a long time, but not their heart. She still had to keep an eye on her for the next few days on Yanru’s behalf and not let her drag Yanru down and steal the limelight.
Song Yanru and He Liuqing were very pleased with the chief scriptwriter’s attitude.
Chi Shuyan didn’t care. As for Qi Hao, apart from his cousin, no one else would dare treat his sister-in-law like she was invisible. He was a little angry and aggrieved on her behalf, but he was also an adult and knew the rules, especially in this circle where the high trampled on the low and the low flattered the high.
Fine, forget it. He couldn’t be bothered to reveal his identity, and his sister-in-law definitely couldn’t be bothered either. Seeing that his sister-in-law’s face was very calm, he could only stand obediently on the side and not speak.
The chief scriptwriter was a man in his forties. After flattering Song Yanru, he immediately introduced her to the other show participants. There were a total of four men and four women on the variety show.
It was a mixed bag of celebrities, and Song Yanru recognized some of them, such as the young actor and actress in the very front who were quite popular recently.
They had both acted in the same fantasy drama which shot them to stardom. The male celebrity was called Zhou Chengfei, and the female celebrity was called Xiao Ying. At that moment, the two of them were very excited to see Film Empress Song Yanru, and took the initiative to greet her amiably.
Song Yanru smiled and nodded at the two.
After the two greeted Song Yanru, the director had the other five also greet her. They were three men and two women: Fang Yu, Lu Ningwen, Du Zhong, Lu Wenjing, and Yun Yiyi.
