"Ah? No, I can't wait any longer. I'll go back and prepare, and bring the gold with me to try. If it works, it's fine. If not, you can help me take the gold back.""If all your wealth were converted into gold, I'm afraid one person wouldn't be able to lift it." "That's nothing. I can just pack it a little worse and disguise it a little better, and then I can drive a truck back to tow it. Third brother, you have to support me a little bit when the time comes. I'll consider it your parting gift to me." "Are you really going to use a recorder to explain this to your family? Why not just say it yourself?" "No, after all, I am the only one, a minority. What if everyone likes me very much and wants me to stay? Then I, the minority, will be shaken, which is not advisable. Besides, don't we have Professor Shen? You can help me explain." "But I feel like I have done something that is sorry for my family." "How could that be? Everyone will understand, and I believe they will respect my decision." "Then you can talk to them in person then." "Then I don't want to. I will cry. I don't want to go back crying." "I'm sorry Wen Yan." "Tsk. Thank you!" - After returning from this "business trip", Wen Yan spent significantly more time at home than before.

The happiest person was Su Yang. "It feels like I'm back to the time when your career wasn't taking off. At that time, you were staying by my mother's side like you are now, helping me choose clothes and getting beauty treatments. It was so cozy." "Because I'm quite free these days, there's basically no filming work. And my new variety show is about to go on, so I might as well take a good rest for a while." "Well, that's how you should be, combining work and rest." "That's right. I won't treat myself badly. By the way, mom." "Ok?" "Is there anything else you particularly want to do?" Wen Yan had two mothers in the original world, and there is also one in this world. To be honest, her favorite is still Su Yang. Thinking about the separation in just a few months, Wen Yan's nose felt a little sore. Su Yang didn't notice it, he just thought Wen Yan was relatively free during this period and wanted to spend some time with her. "There's nothing special I want to do. It's good to have you all by my side. But your eldest brother has been very busy recently and hasn't been home for several days. You know, I called him yesterday to ask when he would be back for dinner, and he actually asked me to make an appointment with his secretary. It really made me laugh." "Big brother has a heavy burden on his shoulders. He must be joking." "I know he was joking. And he's been avoiding your dad and me lately because your dad is urging him to get married. So I can totally understand. By the way, Yanyan, don't you have a boy you like?" Wen Yan thought for a moment and said, "No." Su Yang chuckled: "No, why would you have to think about it for so long? You are my baby. In fact, I really don't want you to get married. It would be great if we could be a family forever. In fact, there is nothing between us... Hey, why are you talking about this? It's your freedom to be in love or not, and to be in love with whomever you want." "Thank you, Mom." "Thank you for what?" "Thank you, mom, for understanding us and for being so kind to me. Really." "Oh, just say it, why are you crying? What's wrong with you, Yanyan? Did you suffer any injustice outside?"

After Su Yang said this, Wen Yan realized that there were tears in her eyes. She quickly shook her head: "No, no one dares to let me suffer." "That's for sure. Are they those netizens on the Internet?" "Not at all." "Then there must be a reason for you doing this. If you don't tell me, I'll ask Yulong." "Don't!" Wen Yan sighed and had to find an excuse. "It's actually my movie. It's going to be released soon. I asked a few senior seniors to watch it when I was editing it, and they didn't think it was very high. This is my first movie after all. I feel that I have put in a lot of effort from preparation to shooting to post-production, but the result is not satisfactory. I am a little disappointed." "That's all?" Su Yang touched Wen Yan's head. "You are already very capable. You have created such a movie at such a young age. It is already very successful. Just consider it as accumulating experience for the first time. Those internationally renowned directors did not succeed in climbing to the top at the beginning. If you still want to continue filming, we can continue. Anyway, our family is not short of money." "Thank you, Mom." Wen Yan hugged Su Yang, hoping that her bad words would not come true. Although I will leave this world soon, I still hope that my work can be successful. But the reality is cruel. She is not a genius director and the film did not perform well when it was released. She wanted to say too much, which made the movie seem a bit messy. Netizens criticized her for not being able to distinguish between the main and the secondary, and for not having the same style, as if two rags from different eras were stitched together. The early part was suffocating, and the late part was deliberately sensational, which seemed very hypocritical. Even with an award-winning actor like Shen Jinghe, a first-line actress like Jiang Wanwan, a rising star like Wang Che, and even her own hard work in the film, they could not save "The Silent Secret". Although fans from various groups enthusiastically paid for the film, including Su Yang and Shen Jingxiu who also contributed, the box office could not be increased after the climax in the early stage. Although she received some positive reviews, Wen Yan received more negative reviews and attacks after this movie. But she never cared about bad reviews before, let alone now. Directly posted: It doesn't matter if the movie is bad, I will keep working hard next time. I will prepare a new variety show soon, see you on TV! This update will be a big deal once it is released. Those who haven't had enough of criticizing the movie are here again. "Tsk tsk tsk, you are so shameless, Qiuqiu, just go home and pick your feet. The entertainment industry has been so quiet in the past year since you were active in it, stop making trouble." "Please spare the variety show industry. It's better to study for two more years with this money." "Haha, have you forgotten that she was on the hot search because she was studying in school? She went to study and ended up filming such a rubbish." "I really don't know what variety show she's going to do next. It's good to have money. You can do whatever you want." "No matter what she does, I will not support it and will resolutely resist it." "That's right, the movie invited so many big names and it still turned out like this, how good can the variety show be? I don't think it will be good." "I just want celebrities in the industry to avoid appearing on her show, so as not to be implicated by her." Comments like this are received by the thousands in minutes. Wen Yan herself couldn't help but sigh after seeing it, saying that after two years of absence, she is still a top star. It just makes life miserable for fans who like Yan.

'Why do people say that movies are bad, but I couldn't help crying when I was in the cinema' "What kind of movies do people want to watch nowadays? Wouldn't it be nice to explain it to everyone? This movie has already spanned two generations." "Some people say that the adaptation is not good. Please, the protagonist is originally a drug enforcement police, and the three generations are still there. If it is changed to be realistic, then the enemy will come for revenge just like in the movie, and it will not pass the review." '…' Everyone was arguing, and Wen Yan's comment section was as lively and terrible as it was in the bloody past. But . Wen Yan has rarely posted updates online in the past two years. Every time I post an update, I will definitely give benefits to my loyal fans. This time is no exception. This time, the draw is for a mysterious peripheral gift pack of a new variety show. Because there is no news about the new show yet, fans don’t know what the peripheral products are. But everyone knows that Wen Yan is very generous every time she gives out benefits, and it will definitely not be something small worth nine yuan and ninety cents. Some people cursed Wen Yan and became her die-hard fans, but they were secretly happy after winning the mysterious gift package. Everything is handled by the team, so Wen Yan doesn't have to worry about it. After returning home, she changed her shoes and washed her hands as usual. But strangely, no one was at home today. This was a bit abnormal. Wen Yan couldn't help but look at Qin Yulong beside her: "Did we come back too early? It doesn't seem like that." "Maybe they all have something to do." Qin Yulong was tired after a day. "I'll go upstairs and change my clothes first. This one is too tight." "Well, then you go quickly." Wen Yan didn't plan to change her clothes and went to the kitchen. Fortunately, Mrs. Zhang was at home, otherwise Wen Yan would have suspected that she and Qin Yulong had accidentally entered another parallel world. "Mrs. Zhang, why are you alone? I didn't see anyone else at home." "Oh, Yanyan is back. My wife decided to have a barbecue tonight. She drove out earlier to pick out the ingredients herself. Jingxiu should be home, maybe in the backyard." "Okay, then I'll go take a look." Although she had taken the initiative to distance herself from Shen Jingxiu during this period, she always felt a little regretful when she thought that they would soon be separated. She thought that it would be a good idea to have a good talk with Shen Jingxiu today, so as to make up for the regret in advance. But I still have to be careful not to let him misunderstand, otherwise he will get deeper into trouble. Wen Yan came to the backyard. It was not dark yet. Several nannies were setting up the dining table and grill. Shen Jingxiu was sitting at the other table with his head down, as if he was looking at his phone. Seeing how focused he was, Wen Yan couldn't help but have evil thoughts and wanted to scare him. So she tiptoed to behind Shen Jingxiu.

Shen Jingxiu was typing on his phone very seriously, as if he had ignored everything else. He didn't even notice Wen Yan coming behind him. Although it is impolite to peek at other people's phone screens, Wen Yan was immediately attracted by the nickname on the screen. 'Warm Little Cake' Wen Yan was deeply impressed by this person. That was a fan who gave her gifts crazily when she was filming the first season of Wild Survival. Of course, she only found out about this after the recording was finished. It was said that a wealthy man opened a second account and spent a fortune on Wen Yan, just to prevent her from being outdone by Qin Yan, a female guest on the same show. After that, this rich man never showed up again, and never came online again. It was said that he opened this account only for Wen Yan. Because it was very mysterious and really cost a lot of money, Wen Yan also went to search for it. But I didn't expect that the operator behind "Wen Yan's Little Cake" was actually Shen Jingxiu. At this moment, he was fighting against the black fans very seriously. 'You shut up!' "Go away, black man!" "I've given you a chance, but who do you think you are?" 'Look in the mirror before you go out and see your own dignity first.' "If you want me to bow my head, you have to kneel down first." "I eat cake and you eat shit. This kind of thing is more in line with your financial ability." …… If Wen Yan hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed that these words came from Shen Jingxiu's mouth. How could such a serious person say such things and foolishly go to the live broadcast room to give so many gifts? Wen Yan felt that his character was a little out of character and found it a little funny, but as she laughed she felt like crying. [Why is Shen Jingxiu like this? ] He didn't hear Wen Yan's approaching footsteps, but he heard his voice at this moment. Shen Jingzheng's fingers, which were typing quickly, stopped and his heart seemed to skip a beat. He subconsciously crossed out the picture. But he didn't want to show that he knew she was behind him, so he stupidly clicked into the comment section again. However, when I entered the comment section again, I no longer had the mood to argue with the haters. Wen Yan was also in a dilemma because of her temporary tear incontinence.

What should I do now? If I wipe my tears and call him again, will it be too late? Will he notice my loss of composure? Fortunately, a "warm voice" suddenly sounded, breaking the awkwardness. It was Shen Jingchuan who strode over and grabbed Wen Yan's shoulders without any hesitation. "Today we..." Shen Jingchuan was stunned when he was halfway through his words, "Why are you still crying? What's wrong with you? Did your brother do anything to you?" "No." The moment Shen Jingxiu ran over, he stood up. He was also looking at Wen Yan, but he didn't say any words of concern first. When Wen Yan saw that other family members had also come over, she thought about it and decided to make the same old excuse. "My movie flopped, it's so sad. None of the movies and TV series I've done before were as bad as this one, I'm not that bad." Shen Jingchuan breathed a sigh of relief. Shen Jingxiu also relaxed his brows slightly. Shen Jingchuan pushed Wen Yan to sit on the chair and said, "I thought you were some great master. It's just a movie. I think it's good. So what if the box office is not good? Look at those award-winning art films. Their box office is even worse than yours." When other family members heard the noise, they came over to comfort them. After all, Wen Yan’s movie box office performance was a hot topic. The film was completed more than a year ago, so Wen Yan was actually expecting the unsatisfactory results. She wasn't too sad, but she also tried to make a fool of herself by pretending that she was crying just now. Who made her unable to hold back her tears lately? She soon started grilling meat happily with everyone. Seeing the whole family gathered together, she wanted to do one last thing. Halfway through the barbecue, she stood up and tapped the cup solemnly. "Everyone, I have something to say. Please listen to me." Su Yang took the lead in applauding: "Tell me, what's the matter? It should be a good thing, right?" "Well...how should I put it? I think it's a good thing." Shen Jingchuan stared at her with a smile on his face: "Then don't keep me in suspense." Shen Jingxiu also waited quietly for her next words. "It's not that the movie failed, but the new variety show is going to be online! Netizens are very worried about me or boycotting me, and they are calling on all kinds of entertainers not to accept my invitations. This makes it very difficult for me." Shen Jinghe, Qin Yulong and Shen Jingcheng looked at Wen Yan at the same time. The matter of inviting guests has never been discussed in the meeting. Why would Wen Yan bring this up at the family dinner today? (End of this chapter)
