Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

This drama looked like an ancient romance drama, but in fact, it was a drama centered around the female lead. Throughout the story, the female lead was the main focus, and even the male lead was created to highlight the female lead’s strength.

During the script reading, Shen Wanwan analyzed her view of the female lead, which received applause from the screenwriter and Director Chen.

Based on Shen Wanwan’s feedback, the screenwriter made some changes to improve the script’s logical coherence. As the discussion progressed, the scriptwriter’s eyes lit up as she listened to Shen Wanwan’s insightful comments.

If the script reading had ended, the scriptwriter would have wanted to embrace Shen Wanwan and spin her around. She was simply a bosom friend!

The script reading lasted from 11:00 am to 5:00 pm. During this time, they only drank tea, and the sound of their rumbling stomachs could be heard.

“Okay, I’ve reserved a private room at Yuxuan Court. Let’s pack up and go over there. We’ll continue the script reading after we’ve eaten our fill.”

Director Chen couldn’t bear to let his carefully chosen actors go hungry, so he made the arrangements.

“Director, you’re too kind!”

“Director, we adore you!”

Director Chen’s words caused the meeting room to cheer. Everyone could not wait to put away the script and leave the meeting room in groups of two or three.

“Kid, do you have a ride to the restaurant? If not, come with me. We can talk about the script in the car!”

As soon as she walked out of the meeting room, Shen Wanwan was stopped by the editor. The screenwriter’s name was Ling Luo. He was a bespectacled young man in his twenties.

“Thank you, Mr. Ling,” Shen Wanwan said, not refusing. She did indeed have a few questions that she needed to discuss with the screenwriter. Their conversation caught Yun Chen’s attention, and he approached them.

“Just in time, I have a few questions too. I’ll come along!” he said.

“Okay, my car is big enough!” Ling Luo nodded. The three of them walked side by side to the parking lot. As soon as they entered the parking lot, the director, who was supposed to leave, was waiting for them in the parking lot.

“Why are you three young people walking so slowly? I’ve been waiting here for quite a while,” complained Director Chen as he saw them.

“Ah, Director Chen, we were discussing the plot,” Ling Luo replied, and they chatted for the entire journey. Shen Wanwan realized that he had a very good temper, but when he talked about the script, he would become very stubborn. He would even argue with you over certain plots. He was quite an interesting person and worth getting to know.

The few of them sat in Ling Luo’s car and went to the restaurant they had booked. When they arrived, the other main actors had almost arrived.

Everyone held their wine glasses and drank back and forth. When they didn’t see the director, screenwriter, and male and female leads, everyone surrounded them enthusiastically and wanted to pour wine for them.

“Come. Director, let me toast you!”

“Mr. Ling, I want to thank you for writing such a great script. Let me toast you!”

“Brother Yun, come here, let me toast you. I wish us to have a pleasant collaboration.”

“Miss Shen, it’s our first time working together. Please guide me in the future.”

Everyone raised their glasses and wanted to drink wine, but they were all stopped by the director.

“You all don’t drink too much. We still have to do a script reading later. If you get drunk, I won’t let you off!”

Director Chen’s face turned serious. Hearing Director Chen’s words, the few people who wanted to persuade others to drink immediately put down their glasses. They were all actors who had worked with Director Chen on many films.

They knew Director Chen’s temperament very well. When he was working, Director Chen was strict and serious. No matter how high your status was, once you made a mistake, he would never show mercy.

“Oh, Director Chen, we won’t drink too much. We’ll have just a little bit. Is it okay for each of us to have one glass?” Li Piao spoke and stood out from the crowd. After saying a few simple words, she gave the person beside her a look.

The latter nodded in understanding and walked straight to the director.

When the other party attracted the director’s attention, Li Piao went straight to Shen Wanwan. She held a wine glass in her hand and smiled at Shen Wanwan, but there was no smile in her eyes.

“Miss Shen, right? This is our first meeting. Let me toast you.”

Li Piao handed her the wine glass. Looking at the wine in front of her, Shen Wanwan felt conflicted.

When a senior offered a toast, a junior cannot refuse to drink. Otherwise, it would be disrespectful and would leave them open to being taken advantage of.

“Since it’s Miss Li’s toast, then I’ll accept it,” Shen Wanwan said, thinking through her current situation. She took the wine with a smile and drank it in one gulp. The red wine was mellow and fragrant and had a low alcohol content, so she wouldn’t get drunk even after drinking a glass.

Shen Wanwan was confident in her ability to hold her liquor. Before she transmigrated into the book, she was a heavy drinker, and she was sure she would still be able to now.

Li Piao had nothing to say when she saw Shen Wanwan drink the wine. She simply held her empty glass and returned to her seat.

During the meal, Shen Wanwan remained completely sober. She chatted with everyone and returned to the conference room to continue reading the script.

There was nothing unusual throughout the entire process. It was only when she returned to her hotel room with Yun Chen that she dropped her guard and removed all her disguises.

She didn’t expect to get drunk with just one glass of red wine, but fortunately, her self-control and ability to pretend were good, and no one could tell that she was drunk.

“It looks like I need to train my alcohol tolerance in the future,” Shen Wanwan thought to herself as she lay on the sofa in the suite, her face turned red. She took out her phone and made a video call to a familiar profile picture.

The sound of a WeChat video call rang in the quiet room. Not long after, the call connected, and Ji Jinxian’s face appeared on the screen.

“Hubby.”

Looking at the person on the screen, Shen Wanwan’s drunken eyes were hazy as she spoke in a soft and coquettish voice. Her soft and sweet voice traveled through the phone receiver to Ji Jinxian’s ears, sounding a little coyer.

“What’s wrong?”

Ji Jinxian asked and remain calm on the surface, but his heart was about to explode.

[Why is the spoiled girl so cute today?]

[Could it be because of the video?]

[This girl is too cute. I want to hug her.]

“Hubby, I miss you so much!”

Shen Wanwan, who was already drunk, held her phone with both hands and smiled foolishly at Ji Jinxian.

Her dazed appearance was extremely adorable. Looking at his wife’s eyes glistening with tears and her face flushing on the screen, Ji Jinxian’s gaze instantly softened.

He wished he could immediately go to his little wife’s side, pull her into his arms, and then hug her to sleep.

However, he couldn’t be there right now, so he could only look at the spoiled girl through the phone screen. Shen Wanwan, who was drunk, began to complain softly.

“Boohoo. Hubby, someone took advantage of you not being here to bully me. Boohoo, she forced me to drink wine. Boohoo, I don’t want to drink.”

Shen Wanwan pouted and complained to Ji Jinxian on the other end of the phone.

“Boohoo, I want to be a lazy bum. I don’t want to work hard anymore. Boohoo, working is too tiring. Hubby, I want a hug!”

Looking at the pouting and coquettish little girl on the phone, Ji Jinxian’s heart instantly softened. He wished he could jump through the screen, embrace her in his arms, and comfort her with soft words.

“Good girl, who bullied you? Tell me quickly, I’ll teach her a lesson for you. If you don’t want to work, I’ll take care of you!”
