He tugged at his collar, stood up, and headed out. \"Wen Rang, let’s go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright.\" Over on the sofa, Wen Rang hurriedly packed his bag and, along with his assistant, quickly followed him out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they reached the beach, and from a distance, Jiang Yisheng saw the person standing next to Director Zhang, a flicker of shadow crossed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Director Zhang waved at him and called out loudly, \"Yisheng, you’re just in time. Come over and listen to the filming sequence for later.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yisheng, you go ahead, I’ll go put the stuff away,\" Wen Rang said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yisheng nodded and walked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Jiang Yisheng’s elegant figure came closer, Ji Mingqian absentmindedly listened to Director Zhang speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yisheng, later you two will each have a jet ski, just like a race. You’ll be circling on the sea, and we’ll be filming. You can be more casual; don’t worry about the cameras,\" Director Zhang said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He never liked actors posing too deliberately for the camera. That kind of staging was what he disliked the most.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, you both know how to ride jet skis, right? Do you want to practice with a coach first?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need, we know how.\" Ji Mingqian replied first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Director Zhang smiled, \"All right then, the jet skis are over there. You two get ready, and we’ll start shooting in ten minutes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he walked away towards the production staff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s go.\" Ji Mingqian put his hands in his pockets, kicked off his sandals, and walked barefoot on the sand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yisheng nodded slightly, walking slowly beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You said before we should race jet skis, looks like now’s the time,\" Ji Mingqian said, glancing at the blue sky with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yisheng responded with a hum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you need me to go easy on you?\" Ji Mingqian’s smile carried a hint of teasing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yisheng turned his head, finally meeting his gaze directly, \"No need.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if he’d lose, he didn’t need him to hold back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unknowingly, the atmosphere between them warmed up, unlike the earlier awkwardness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Mingqian chuckled, \"Pretty confident?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yisheng snorted lightly, his tone proud, \"Don’t underestimate me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Ji Mingqian was dazed, as if they had gone back to before they lost contact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pulled back his thoughts and casually asked, \"When’s the concert?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Next month.\" After saying that, the smile on Jiang Yisheng’s lips froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, he tilted his head to look at him, pretending to ask nonchalantly, \"Coming to support?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling a bit tense inside after saying that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Mingqian’s pace unconsciously slowed down, and he grinned, \"Sure, I’ll book thirty tickets in advance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thirty tickets?\" Jiang Yisheng was taken aback, \"Why do you need so many tickets?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Employee benefits.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yisheng suddenly understood, it was for Chen Xin and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Any discounts?\" Ji Mingqian moved slightly closer, almost imperceptibly closing the distance between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yisheng’s eyes filled with a smile, his tone even more lighthearted and relaxed, \"Five percent off, does that count?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stingy.\" Ji Mingqian’s mouth twitched, he complained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yisheng laughed, nudging the sand with his toe, watching the sand spill over Ji Mingqian’s foot. Satisfied, he smiled, \"I’m stingy? Why didn’t you say that when I rented out a whole cinema for you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Mingqian laughed helplessly, shaking off the sand from his leg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Big boss, these are your jet skis,\" Chen Xin, who was talking with the coach, said gently when he saw them approaching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Check if there’s anything wrong with them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Mingqian walked up casually to one of the jet skis, climbed on, his agile movements showed he was quite at ease, clearly a pro.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a quick check, he jumped down and looked at Jiang Yisheng, \"This one’s for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yisheng was stunned for a moment, then realized and agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the distance, Director Zhang held a megaphone and shouted, \"Everyone get ready, we’re starting filming.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Mingqian mounted the jet ski, looking at Jiang Yisheng with a playful smile, \"Want to make a bet?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bet on what?\" Jiang Yisheng tentatively asked, not immediately agreeing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your coffee,\" Ji Mingqian said, eyeing him intently without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coffee?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yisheng’s eyes quivered slightly, his voice stuck in his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come on, do you agree or not? Filming’s about to start,\" Ji Mingqian urged, afraid he’d take too long to answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yisheng lowered his head and finally nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"All right.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Mingqian smiled with satisfaction, then added, \"If I lose, I’ll make sure you meet Erbao today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, a light flickered in Jiang Yisheng’s eyes, was Erbao also here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could inquire, Director Zhang’s voice came again, \"Action, Mingqian, Yisheng, you can start now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Mingqian turned to Jiang Yisheng, provoking, \"Two laps, whoever gets back first wins.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yisheng nodded, agreeing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two exchanged a glance, Ji Mingqian’s lips parted slightly, and he shouted, \"Go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the words were out, both jet skis shot forward at the same time, splashing massive sprays of water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Splash—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Xin was busy admiring her handsome idol Jiang, and was soaked before she could dodge in time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh my, geez.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Out in the vast sea, the two white jet skis raced fiercely, leaving the filming crew far behind, struggling to keep up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cold seawater splashed onto their faces, making the crew miserable, holding onto the camera with one hand and clutching the coach’s shirt with the other to avoid falling off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mingqian, Yisheng, slow down!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The photographer among them shouted at the top of his voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the sea breeze was too strong, along with the sound of waves, the voices couldn’t reach their ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, with a bet at stake, both of them were completely absorbed in the competition, and the filming was long forgotten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Mingqian glanced to the side at the person keeping pace with him. The speed was nearly on par with his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Impressed by Jiang Yisheng’s fast progress, he smiled, feeling that he had indeed put in effort in practicing these past months.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He used to scold him for riding a jet ski like a rocket, but now he’s no different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not bad, no wonder you said you didn’t need me to hold back.\" He raised his voice, teasing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Says who?\" Jiang Yisheng retorted petulantly, not backing down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Need me to go easy on you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Mingqian couldn’t help but laugh, \"Give it up, just watch yourself, beating me won’t be that easy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’ll see,\" Jiang Yisheng threw down the challenge, increasing his speed to the max, finally taking the lead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the two were having a blast, the photographers had a hard time, the shooting difficulty kept increasing, making it impossible to shoot properly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, they had to rely on drones for filming, close-up shots would have to wait until the two slowed down.\u003C\u002Fp>",1168,"2026-05-30T05:19:15.933Z","2026-06-01T04:30:24.264Z",1,"novelbin.me","dc6a87ea82467221bca598a2f3df099c71af14728eeb5f4b9ad916061f6065b0","the-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-chapter-866","the-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-chapter-864",877,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-cover.jpg"]
