Chapter 136: The Couple Goes to the Set to Get Slapped

After Qiao An tried hard to comfort herself, her heart felt much better.

But she knew clearly in her heart that she was at a dead end with no way out!

Now… the only option is to act properly, follow Song Huan Yan's arrangements, please Song Huan Yan, stop causing trouble, and that is the sole path left!

If she hadn't moved Song Huan Yan out, she wouldn't have been able to leave Nan Gong Old Residence today!

Gu Qinghe, that ageless old hag, turned out to be a ruthless character!

She has not a shred of sympathy!

Regarding this matter, Song Huan Yan said little and didn't punish her, and Nan Gong Lin even felt sympathy for her.

Even Nan Gong Jue… seemed not to intend to blacklist her.

In fact, the old hag was raging like thunder, hitting the hardest!

She's truly insane to come looking for that old hag!

Old hag, just wait—she's not young, the sooner she dies the better!

After Qiao An cursed in anger, she dared not delay and hurriedly drove to the set.

She drove while crying.

She cried about how she suddenly fell into such misery, and also cried that the Nan Gong Jue who loved her wouldn't return.

She also wept that her dream of crossing classes was shattered, and now she could only stay beneath Song Huan Yan, watching her lofty and arrogant!

Qiao An cried as if she were dying and reviving, seeming to drain all the tears of her life.

Because of that, she almost caused a car accident!

She was even more terrified, her soul rattling, and she cried even more miserably.

But she still persisted in going to the set.

Upon arrival, she had the Assistant fetch ice cubes to chill her eyes and face.

She went herself to find Tang Chenge.

Tang Chenge was filming a scene and told her to wait; he only came over after more than twenty minutes.

But Qiao An didn't dare to even fart, let alone act arrogantly.

"What's wrong with you now?" Tang Chenge stepped forward, very impatient.

Qiao An, wearing a black mask and a low‑slung baseball cap, heard the voice and took off her hat and mask.

Tang Chenge jumped in alarm, frowned, and asked, "Why did you get hit again? Can we still film the afternoon/evening scene?"

Qiao An hurriedly replied, "I… have prepared an ice compress; we should be able to film."

Her attitude was unexpectedly both excellent and professional.

Tang Chenge looked at her, puzzled.

Qiao An added, "I… I will stay at the set all day; if makeup can be done this afternoon, we'll film straight away. If not… then Director Tang will have to painstakingly rearrange the scenes."

Her attitude and words left Tang Chenge stunned.

A few seconds later Tang Chenge recovered, nodded, "Oh, okay."

Qiao An also nodded and even gave Tang Chenge a slight bow.

Then she headed to the Chauffeur Car.

Tang Chenge widened his eyes, "I'm going, is this bitch about to unleash a big move?"

How did she suddenly become like a different person?

Could she have been possessed or time‑traveled?

Tang Chenge widened his eyes, immediately grabbed his phone, and prepared to call Song Huan Yan.

Over here, Gu Qinghe was telling Song Huan Yan and Nan Gong Yu how she had beaten Qiao An this morning, leaving her face swollen like a pig's head, and she was delightedly recounting it.

Song Huan Yan subconsciously paused her hand.

Nan Gong Yu also halted, looking at her.

Gu Qinghe seemed still unsure; seeing their reactions, she asked, "What's wrong, Yan Yan, should I not have hit her?"

Before Song Huan Yan could speak, Nan Gong Yu said, "Indeed…"

"She definitely should be hit!" Song Huan Yan took the lead, smiling at Gu Qinghe, "Mother, well done."

Gu Qinghe was startled, feeling a bit embarrassed, and said, "Is that so?"

"Hmm." Song Huan Yan nodded, "Mother handled it well; she deserves a lesson."

Nan Gong Yu gave Song Huan Yan another look and said nothing further.

Gu Qinghe pursed her lips, moved to the point of tears, and said, "But Yan Yan, she still has to film your scene; being a pig‑head will delay shooting, right?"

Song Huan Yan replied, "It's fine, Mother; if we stop filming, we stop. It's not a big problem."

Gu Qinghe added, "But I almost crippled both her arms and legs."

That remark truly startled Song Huan Yan, making her nervous, and she said, "Ah?"

Gu Qinghe said, "You moved her out, so I didn't actually cripple her."

Upon hearing that, Song Huan Yan exhaled in relief.

Gu Qinghe said, "Sorry, Yan Yan, Mother didn't know your plan. But I'm clever; I thought it couldn't be that simple, so I called a halt at the crucial moment!"

Gu Qinghe was still quite proud.

Song Huan Yan laughed, "Hmm, Mother is truly clever!"

Gu Qinghe grinned broadly, frantically serving dishes to Song Huan Yan, "Yan Yan, eat more, eat more."

She still thought Song Huan Yan would blame her.

Or even if she didn't say it, her face would still show displeasure.

After all, Gu Qinghe knew she had almost delayed Song Huan Yan's grand plan!

But… I didn't expect Song Huan Yan not only wouldn't blame her, but also praised her….

A daughter‑in‑law this good is truly hard to find even with a lantern.

Nan Gong Yu, standing nearby, pursed his lips, watching his own wife coax his mother into behaving like a child, and of course felt uncontainable joy.

Gu Qinghe added, "Yan Yan, suppose—if I say suppose—I really ruined her this morning, what should we do?"

Song Huan Yan abruptly set down her chopsticks and said seriously, "Mother, you needn't think there's any fault. You don't understand the whole process, so punishing her is fine. If she truly is ruined, that's another plan. In any case, it's not a big problem; don't worry about it."

Gu Qinghe, hearing that, felt extremely comfortable and nodded repeatedly, "I told you Yan Yan would never blame me; you really are a damn good daughter‑in‑law! Come, eat quickly, eat quickly."

Song Huan Yan also picked some dishes for Gu Qinghe, "Mother, you eat too."

Just then, Tang Chenge called, and Song Huan Yan set down her chopsticks, picked up the phone and walked aside to answer.

Tang Chenge said, "Yan Yan, Qiao An was beaten into a pig's head today, her face swollen as high as a finger! Yet after she arrived on set her attitude was unbelievably good! Not only did she proactively want to film properly, she even… bowed to me! I even suspect she's become a different person."

Song Huan Yan slowly raised an eyebrow, then said, "That's because she has nowhere else to go; now the only path left is to film well. She's waiting for this hype to pass, and I'll keep promoting her to the status of an international movie star."

Tang Chenge stroked his chin, "Hmm, indeed she has no way out. That slut actually knows the times; now she probably won't dare to act up again. By the way, was her face smashed by Nan Gong Jue? Did she take leave this morning to look for Nan Gong Jue?"

"No," Song Huan Yan replied, "My mother‑in‑law did."

"What?!" Tang Chenge widened his eyes, "You… your mother‑in‑law found out?"

Song Huan Yan said, "Hmm, she went to my mother‑in‑law herself, laid everything out, and hopes to gain my mother‑in‑law's understanding and support."

Tang Chenge: "........"

After being speechless for over ten seconds, Tang Chenge said, "She's a real talent, damn it! Truly low‑class unbeatable!"

Since Qiao An isn't acting up anymore, that's the best outcome for now.

Lest she jumps around all day, constantly causing trouble, just looking at her face is enough.

In this way, things have become considerably cleaner.

By afternoon, Qiao An's face had almost deflated, and after touching up makeup and adjusting the lighting, filming could continue.

Since she stopped causing trouble, even the shooting schedule proceeded much more smoothly.

In Yu Garden's kitchen, coffee was also being prepared.

It was Song Huan Yan who wanted to order coffee for the whole crew, so Nan Gong Yu had the kitchen make it directly.

Actually, the specifications were already high.

Coffee made in Yu Garden's kitchen is naturally far more upscale than what's outside.

The reason Song Huan Yan wanted to send coffee to the whole crew was, of course, because she was happy.

This move was a thorough beating of Qin Zi Mo and Qiao An!

Qin Zi Mo now has no villa, no money, and can only move with his parents into the three‑bedroom suite he previously bought for them.

Having been accustomed to a spacious, luxurious villa with indoor and outdoor pools, moving into an ordinary three‑bedroom place, you can imagine how it feels—can it be comfortable?

He'll probably be unable to sleep at night!

The mattress in the bedroom of Song Huan Yan's villa isn't cheap either—over three million per bed.

Qin Zi Mo, anyway, can't sleep on it any more, and now can't afford it.

How exhilarating!

Qiao An need not even be mentioned—having lost a fiancé worth a trillion, not to mention the regret is beyond words, probably completely ruined.

Seeing the two like this, Song Huan Yan was, of course, delighted.

She even… naturally wanted to show off.

After dinner, Meng Zhangfeng prepared to send someone to deliver the coffee.

Nan Gong Yu, however, suggested, "Huan Yan, how about we take a stroll too? I've never been to the crew, don't know… what it looks like."

Song Huan Yan slowly raised an eyebrow, understanding Nan Gong Yu's intention.

He said that, actually, out of consideration for her.

Since it's about showing off, why not do it thoroughly!

"Fine." Song Huan Yan nodded.

The married couple then set off with a carload of coffee.

Song Huan Yan had called Tang Chenge in advance; when the time came, the whole crew was waiting.

This drama is an S‑rank Contemporary Romance, costing a lot, so there are naturally many staff.

Currently there are fifty to sixty people on set.

Adding the extras needed today, the total exceeds a hundred people.

Nan Gong Yu used a convoy; when entering, the aura was fully charged.

The crew was also excited; such a convoy scene might be seen on the road by ordinary people, but only as a sight.

A scene like this, waiting here for people to get off the vehicle, is something ordinary folks might never experience in their lifetime.

Thirty to forty elite bodyguards formed two rows to clear a path, and Meng Zhangfeng opened the car door to welcome the two out.

The display made the crew's eyes sparkle.

The two walked over hand in hand.

Tang Chenge stepped forward, laughing, "Welcome, President Song, Lord Nan Gong!"

The crew also welcomed them.

Qin Zi Mo and Qiao An's faces ultimately still turned black and bruised.

The coffee was handed to the staff, accompanied by biscuits.

Although simple, it looked extremely upscale.

After a bite, everyone exclaimed, "So delicious!"

"This coffee tastes great!"

Qiao An and Qin Zi Mo were also handed a copy, and their expressions instantly grew even more sour.

Watching Song Huan Yan and Nan Gong Yu stand in the crowd, they were praised and envied by the crew.

Qiao An truly almost couldn't hold back her temper and smashed the coffee.

But now, she cannot bear it, yet she must endure.

She knows well that Song Huan Yan chose to come at this moment, surely on purpose!

It's deliberately done for her to see.

To make her regret, to let her know what she has lost!

Indeed, if she were still with Lord Nan Gong, such honor and flaunting would be at her fingertips with just a bit of coquetry.

What she lost is the heavenly splendor and wealth, and the lofty glory.

The crew's flattery was almost over, and Tang Chenge said, "Everyone take a break first; we'll resume filming in twenty minutes."

After that, he turned to Song Huan Yan and Nan Gong Yu and asked, "Shall I give you two a tour?"

That also satisfied Nan Gong Yu's curiosity about the crew.

Twenty minutes later, filming started.

What a coincidence, it's precisely Qin Zi Mo and Qiao An's opposing scene.

And it's also a passionate scene.

Tang Chenge whispered, "Do you two want to watch before you go?"

Song Huan Yan pursed her lips and looked toward Nan Gong Yu.

Nan Gong Yu said, "Watch."

If they watch, it would be a tremendous humiliation for Qin Zi Mo and Qiao An!

How to say it.

The two sat beside the director's seat, watching.

Qin Zi Mo and Qiao An were acting right across from them.

That sense of disparity... sprang up instantly!
