Chapter 57: Chapter 34: A Joyful Conversation

Translator: 549690339

Hearing Bai Shilan speak like this, Ye Bingtong’s eyes lit up, and her smile grew a few degrees more sincere.

During this period, she was surrounded by nothing but vulgar people who simply couldn’t see how important true love was.

Now.

She had finally met a kindred spirit, and she never expected that the big star Bai Shilan would share her views!

Ye Bingtong said with some emotion, “Thank you for understanding me. I’ve been criticized these days to the point I’m nearly going insane. Can a woman who is engaged really be bound for a lifetime? If we encounter true love, can we not pursue it?”

Bai Shilan became more spirited: “In my opinion, it’s your eldest brother who has the biggest problem! Shouldn’t he be happy for someone he cares about when they find true love? Why make things so ugly. Later, President Qin stepped forward to admit that he is the father of the child, which is such a responsible act.”

Ye Bingtong somewhat wanted to agree, but remembered how Chen Yueyue had backstabbed her, so she just smiled.

But Bai Shilan got even more excited as she continued: “Compared with President Qin’s responsibility, your eldest brother seems a bit petty. To ask for an IOU for a gift he gave away… that’s not what a man should do.”

Bai Shilan then thought of her own patron.

He had been very good to her.

He had given her gifts and resources, single-handedly boosting her to her current status.

But!

Now she wanted freedom and had found someone she truly liked. Why couldn’t he learn to let go?

If he were to really let go, she didn’t know how happy she would be.

With these thoughts, Bai Shilan felt her heart aching again.

He actually had been very good to her… If he really let go, would she truly be happy?

Ah.

No more thinking about this.

The one she liked now was Ye Lin.

Even though he had never responded to her feelings, liking someone was just that—liking them.

She, Bai Shilan, was not someone who gave up easily.

“I also think that since Ye Xiao came back, my eldest brother has changed a lot.” Ye Bingtong couldn’t help saying: “He wasn’t like this before.”

Bai Shilan also sighed: “It seems that Ye Xiao is not someone to be trifled with. Your recent days in the Ye Family must have been tough, right?”

Ye Bingtong quickly said: “Not really, dad, mom, and my eldest brother are still very good to me. Isn’t there a saying that nurturing grace is greater than birth? Likewise, the affections nurtured over so many years can’t be surpassed by blood relations alone. My status in the Ye Family is still very much cherished.”

Ye Bingtong still needed to rely on the influence of the Ye Family, so naturally, she tried her best to elevate her position within the family.

Whether other people believed it or not, Bai Shilan immediately did, and her gaze towards Ye Bingtong changed instantly.

She was currently pursuing Ye Lin.

However, Ye Lin had been utterly indifferent to her, which was causing her great pain. Perhaps, starting with Ye Lin’s family might give her a way in.

Ye Bingtong deliberately said: “Actually, my second brother dotes on me the most. Ever since I was young, whatever I wanted, he would buy for me. One time when I was sick, he flew back home from a thousand miles away in the middle of the night to see me.”

Bai Shilan had a sudden realization: “So that previous time he suddenly took leave from the set was… ”

As she spoke, Bai Shilan realized she was about to reveal too much and quickly covered her mouth.

Ye Bingtong pretended not to know Bai Shilan’s identity and innocently asked: “Sister, do you know my second brother?”

Bai Shilan showed a shy smile: “I suppose I’m one of his fans.”

“Oh, is that so? It’s just that my second brother indeed has a lot of fans. Since you and I have hit it off, let’s exchange contact information, and next time he’s back, I’ll have him treat you to a meal,” Ye Bingtong suggested.

Bai Shilan suddenly showed a bashful look: “Will your second brother, would he be willing?”

“Don’t worry, my second brother dotes on me the most. As long as I ask, there’s nothing he wouldn’t agree to,” Ye Bingtong said with great confidence.

Her second brother had been on a closed set shooting, and had not been charmed by that Ye Xiao yet. Ye Bingtong believed, as soon as her second brother returned, he would definitely protect her.

“Then I’ll have to trouble you,” Bai Shilan said, as they exchanged personal contact information.

Then, Bai Shilan asked with a smile, “Today, Director Li is selecting the female lead, why aren’t you going?”

Ye Bingtong replied, “I have already signed up, just waiting for the interview this afternoon.”

Bai Shilan immediately burst into laughter and said, “I believe you’ll receive good news this afternoon.”

After saying this, Bai Shilan left.

A smile couldn’t help but appear on Ye Bingtong’s face.

All her efforts hadn’t been wasted!

It was said that Bai Shilan had a very powerful background, and with her support, the role of the female lead was surely hers!

Ye Xiao.

You would never have expected this!

I just went out casually and ran into Bai Shilan, and to have such an opportunity!

This must be the universe compensating her for the recent streak of bad luck.

From now on,

She would be lucky!

At the moment, Bai Shilan was also in high spirits. She encountered Ye Lin’s most beloved sister, and coincidentally, she was able to be of assistance to Ye Bingtong. If Ye Lin found out about this later, he would surely be somewhat more grateful to her.

Bai Shilan went straight to the restaurant outside to meet up with Li Mingyu and the others.

Lunch was a simple meal; Li Mingyu had only invited Professor Yan to dine with him, and there was also a nanny taking care of a five or six-year-old child.

The child was adorably eating obediently,

Bai Shilan knew.

This was Li Mingyu’s grandson.

Li Mingyu also had suffered a tragedy, with her son and daughter dying in a car accident. This child had survived because of his parents’ desperate protection.

But ever since that accident, the child had never spoken again.

This little grandson was now Li Mingyu’s life.

Li Mingyu would take him wherever she went.

This was something that anyone who had worked with Li Mingyu in films somewhat knew.

Bai Shilan had initially tried to ingratiate herself with the child, but no matter what she said, he showed no response, so Bai Shilan stopped paying him any attention.

She took off her sunglasses, sat down next to Li Mingyu, and with a smile on her face said, “Director Li, as one of the female leads of the movie, may I recommend someone for the other female lead?”

Li Mingyu was originally talking with Professor Yan when Bai Shilan suddenly interjected, causing her to frown slightly.

But Bai Shilan seemed oblivious, continuing enthusiastically, “Her name is Ye Bingtong, a student from our school as well. We hit it off right away, and I believe that she will definitely be suited to play the other female lead.”

Ye Bingtong?

Professor Yan turned his head and said, “That’s the student who enrolled at the last minute.”

Li Mingyu did indeed have some recollection of Ye Bingtong; her brow furrowed even more, and she said somewhat coldly, “That’s not for you to consider. I will pick the female lead myself.”

Bai Shilan immediately grew anxious.

After saying such things to Ye Bingtong, how could she save face if she couldn’t handle this matter?

Bai Shilan blurted out, “After all, with two female leads, only if they get along well can a good movie be produced, right?”

In her words, there was a hint of a threat.

Bai Shilan wasn’t the least bit afraid of Li Mingyu; the woman didn’t want her in the cast at first, but with just a word from La Jingzhou, she still had to obey!

A director, after all, how could she fight against capital?
