This ti, that little slut got on TV, making a na for herself. She might not even acknowledge them anymore.
So when faced with nosy neighbors suggesting they bring the little slut ho, the Old Lady got smart. She couldn’t bring herself to go and ask for embarrassnt after the incident at the Police Station. That mory is sothing she won’t ever forget. Even if they carried her in a grand sedan chair, she wouldn’t go.
By the ti Hua Yan erged from the secret realm, it was already August 12, and her level had quickly shot up to 35.
Considering the ti, it was about ti for her piano lessons again, and her third novel was about to be published, with her drafts running out. She was afraid there wouldn’t be ti to level up further.
After about twenty days of cooling off, her dia popularity had decreased, and with plenty of supplies at ho, she didn’t go out much, except for going to the Ning Family to clean and water plants.
When the phone was turned on, there were many missed calls. She only returned calls to those she recognized, including teachers, classmates, the Yan Family, the Hua Family, Ning Hao, and Liang An.
Replies to teachers and classmates were that she went to the mountains for sketching, and the signal was bad, so she didn’t have her phone on.
She directly ignored calls from the Hua Family and the Yan Family and blocked those she hadn’t already.
No need to respond to unfamiliar numbers.
She sent a safety update to Ning Hao via WeChat.
When it ca to Liang An, "Grandma, I called you half a month ago, and you’re only getting back to now?"
Hua Yan laughed awkwardly, "Isn’t it because the phone was off just now? Uncle Liang, is there sothing you need?"
"Are you ho now? I just went to Southern, brought you so fruits and gifts. If you don’t turn on your phone soon, I might end up eating them all."
Hua Yan didn’t expect Liang An to rember her, "Look at you being so thoughtful."
Liang An rolled his eyes on the other end of the call, "Wrong. This isn’t being thoughtful. I’m fulfilling my duty as a guardian. After all, when you were trending online twenty days ago, you brought a lot of face. Although others don’t know our relationship, I personally felt proud!"
Who can’t blow a bit of flattery? Especially when seeing the other man’s lips curling, he felt stifled in his role as a part-ti agent.
"I have two scripts here, both with short cycles. They can be fild before school starts. Are you interested?"
Hua Yan carefully thought about it and realized she hadn’t acted for a long ti: "Aren’t you coming over? Let see the scripts first!"
Liang An: "...". Oh, the little brat, already picky about scripts? Is this how Grandpa ends up offering them right to her doorstep?
Hua Yan keenly sensed sothing was wrong and quickly added.
"Uncle Liang, I’m not being pretentious. It’s just that I need to rush my assignnts next, and I’m afraid there will be a ti conflict, so, you understand, right?"
"Hanging up, let’s talk later." Liang An couldn’t be bothered to listen to the girl’s nonsense anymore and hung up directly, looking accusatorily at Ling Yao.
"See? Instead of learning the good stuff, she learned your bad habits thoroughly."
Ling Yao shot him a glance, "She doesn’t even know who I am. Where could she have learned from? Stop talking nonsense and get your stuff ready to go."
Liang An checked the ti, "This is a good ti. Didn’t you say she cooks well? I’ll go and try it."
With that, he stood up and went to change clothes. When he ca back out, he saw Yao Ling lounging lazily on the sofa, tongue sticking out in a sarcastic ’hehe’. His mouth twitched silently: "Hey, don’t tell you’re coming too!"
Yao Ling stretched out his tongue, making a ’hehe’ sarcastic sound, "What? You got a problem? I’m going ho. What about you?"
Liang An: "...". How co as a guardian, he seems to have less sense of belonging than a dog?
"I’m tired, carry down." Liang An widened his eyes, "You’re tired but still going? Doesn’t it feel good to stay ho?"
"Staying ho doesn’t feel good. Going with you feels better. Besides, I’m not heavy, what’s the problem with carrying ?"
Liang An took a deep breath, "Young master, if I rember correctly, weren’t we supposedly on equal footing? Why do I feel like you’re ordering around like a servant? We are equals, right?"
"Liang An, although we are not superiors and subordinates, your family is an affiliate of our Fox Clan. Even your Clan Leader has to listen to my father. As a bastard child, shouldn’t you be nice to , the little master of the Fox Clan? You might need to step in to maintain relations within your family in the future."
Liang An chuckled coldly, "I’ve already freed myself from family control. I am alone now, not under any clan’s influence. You and I are just using each other, so don’t try to make it sound noble. Besides, you’re currently struggling to protect yourself. Doesn’t it seem ridiculous to promise the future?"
"A cal, even dead, is bigger than a horse. I am in the phase of rebirth from the ashes, like a Phoenix. If it wasn’t for being frad by those reckless brothers of mine and accidentally breaking into the Human World, my power wouldn’t have diminished to this state. Now is my weak and recovery period. Considering I can make money for you, can’t you look after a bit more?"
Seeing Yao Ling’s shaless deanor made Liang An angry. Clearly, he lived more pathetically than him, yet so people naturally exuded nobility and command others without hesitation. On top of that, he found himself obediently following orders, though it didn’t seem logical.
Resignedly glaring at the dog, he grudgingly picked him up, "Why not stay a good fox and be a dog instead? You’re really sothing!"
"You just don’t understand, do you? Have you ever seen anyone keep a fox? I’d probably be caught and taken to the zoo if I walked down the street. Moreover, my true form has nine tails. How can a nine-tailed demon fox be a pet? So adopting this Samoyed form is at least dog royalty, isn’t it satisfactory enough?"
Liang An: "..." Fine, what can I say, you’re always right, huh?
"Eh? Speaking of my true form, hasn’t yours also remained hidden?"
"I graduated from the Third Academy as a qualified student, so I have the right to maintain a human form. Why would I reveal my true form? Besides, it’s not like you don’t know what it is, so why are you pretending here?"
"It’s been a long ti, I kind of miss it, is there anything wrong with that?"
Liang An: "..." So things are not worth arguing with fools over.
And so, one person and one dog drove to Oak Bay, which was actually not far from their current rented place.
Not being peak hours, it took just over half an hour to get there.
Hua Yan knew Liang An was coming, but didn’t expect Doudou to co too. Upon seeing it, she was naturally very excited and rushed over to hug it.
But the sudden weight made her instinctively slump: "Wow, you’ve grown recently and put on quite a bit of weight."
She patted his dog head, having to put it down because of its weight: "I’ll make you so braised pork in a bit."
Liang An, who had been overlooked, had already entered the house and was sitting on the sofa. Hua Yan poured a glass of water for Liang An and took out Doudou’s dishes, washed them clean, and filled them with water—a heartwarming and ticulous scene that made Liang An feel a bit out of place.
"Have dinner here tonight. I’ll cook a few dishes for you two in a bit."
Liang An frowned: "I think the term ’you two’ doesn’t seem quite appropriate."
Hua Yan was taken aback, and when she understood what he ant, she couldn’t help but laugh.
"Sorry, I’ll watch out next ti, haha. Can you give the script now?"
Liang An cleared his throat and handed her the script from the briefcase. She took a look and saw two period dramas.
One was a fantasy martial arts drama, the other a weekly web drama.
The fantasy martial arts drama was expected to be broadcast on satellite TV, while the web version would only be available on video streaming sites.
This has beco a popular shooting thod in recent years because TV dramas can’t involve crossing or rebirth, and even the online versions need to streamline the scale.
The roles she’d play were carefully chosen by Liang An. Although she wasn’t the leading lady, she was in roles that were quite favored in the dramas.
For example, in the fantasy martial arts drama, she played the pet raised by the male lead, which later transforms into a human and ends up opposing the female lead, but ultimately dies to save her.
In the rebirth revenge drama, she portrayed a princess with a rocky background, living initially in happiness surrounded by family, but later due to war between two countries, her nation fell, her family perished, and she beca a fallen princess embarking on a path of revenge, unfortunately falling for soone she shouldn’t and ended up as cannon fodder.
After Hua Yan quickly skimd through the scripts, she frowned at Liang An: "It seems impossible to finish shooting before sumr vacation is over."
Not ntioning these roles being minor ones, just the plot itself isn’t sothing that can be completed in a short ti.
"What you see are early scripts. In reality, after joining the crew, scenes might be cut due to various relationships, which is quite normal. That’s why I told you directly, it can be shot before sumr vacation. As for the paynt, it won’t be much, but at least a few thousand dollars."
"Who’s the male lead?"
"Ling Yao."
"Both are Ling Yao?"
"Yes, both are Ling Yao."
Hua Yan frowned, "If I’m not mistaken, Ling Yao seems to be quite popular lately, right? With such high traffic, why is he shooting these web dramas or fantasy martial arts dramas?"
"Well..., hehe, you also think it’s a bit lowering his worth, right? But he wants to do it himself, what can I do?"
Hua Yan flipped through it again and suddenly understood. "Haha, could it be that these two dramas have a lot of beauties?"
The initially yawning Yao Ling on the floor, suddenly provoked by Hua Yan’s remark, couldn’t hold back.
"Nonsense, do those count as beauties? I’m just too bored,"
After saying this, he was stunned, and Hua Yan also stiffly turned around to face Yao Ling.
"Did you just... say sothing? I didn’t hear wrong, did I? You’re Ling Yao? Yao Ling, Ling Yao? My god! I seem to have discovered sothing incredible!"
