Chapter 83: Why Don’t You Leave Your Coat Behind?

“No, let’s go now,” Lu Jingzhi replied. He looked extremely exhausted.

Although he had been very busy earlier in the day, he spent another six hours just getting to this little town to catch a glimpse of Jiang Yuning. He knew that if he met up with her, he would not have been able to go home tonight.

The driver quickly nodded his head and he was about to start driving away, but they were noticed by Shen Yichen who was busy talking to the director. He thought that the car looked extremely familiar and so, he walked up to it.

He was shocked upon peering over and looking at the person waiting in the car.

At this time, the driver had also rolled down the car window at Lu Jingzhi’s direction.

“Second young master, is it really you? Yuning has already finished her shooting. Would you like to meet her?”

“No, I just wanted to take a look at her. I am leaving now,” Lu Jingzhi quickly replied.

“Then…why don’t you leave your coat behind?” Shen Yichen asked as he smiled. He started explaining himself as soon as he saw Lu Jingzhi frowning. “Your woman refuses to wear anyone else’s coat. She said that the only coat that she will wear is yours.”

After listening to Shen Yichen’s explanation, Lu Jingzhi unbuckled his suit jacket before handing it over to Shen Yichen. “Please take good care of her for me.”

“Don’t worry. You can be rest assured.”

After that, the driver rolled up the car window and drove off discreetly in the dark.

Shen Yichen held the suit jacket in his hand as he walked back to the director and smiled as he said, “I just went over to say hello to an acquaintance.”

The director looked at the black car with a deep expression on his face, but he did not say anything about it. He then looked at Director Shen before saying, “I have already recommended Jiang Yuning to Director Shen Guobang. He has been on the lookout for a third female lead and I feel that Jiang Yuning may be suitable for the role.”

“Thank you in advance then,” Director Shen said as he shook hands with the director.

Shen Guobang was an internationally-renowned director who specialized in producing ancient and historical dramas. If Jiang Yuning could successfully get a role in one of his dramas, it would be a huge milestone for Jiang Yuning, even if she would only be playing the third lead female character.

He had not expected Jiang Yuning to be given such an opportunity.

“You should cultivate and train her well. She is going to turn out to be a fine actress,” the director told Shen Yichen—he was really impressed with Jiang Yuning’s performance and attitude throughout the filming today.

“Of course,” Shen Yichen replied as he made a gesture at the director.

It was nine o’clock at night and the strong and cold breeze made the rainy night even colder.

All the staff and production crew gathered together at a traditional restaurant in town and started to feast on their chicken soup. At this time, the young paparazzo took the cough medicine that Jiang Yuning had handed over to him and brought it over to the staff member who had been coughing. “Here, Sister Yuning heard you coughing earlier today and she asked me to pass this medicine to you.”

The staff was flustered when he saw the cough medicine.

This was because the only pharmacy available in this town had already shut down a long time ago and the nearest hospital was a one-hour drive away.

His colleagues did not notice that he was down with a cold and therefore, he did not expect that Jiang Yuning would be the one to noticed his coughing. Furthermore, even though Jiang Yuning was a celebrity, she still took the opportunity and time to ask her assistant to deliver the cough medicine to him. He would have been lying if he said that he was not touched by her gesture.

The colleagues around him were also shocked when they saw the young paparazzo handing the cough medicine over to him.

They turned around and looked at Jiang Yuning, who was sitting at the same table as the director. She was entertaining them so well that the table was filled with laughter.

“Jiang Yuning is actually not that bad. In fact, she is quite a decent person.”

“Yes, it seems like we have misunderstood her.”

A few of the staff members started feeling guilty for protesting and reacting strongly when they had met Jiang Yuning earlier that day. They started to reflect on their own actions.

…

It was already eleven o’clock at night when they finally finished eating and drinking wine. All the staff members started heading back to the hotel to rest for the night. At this time, Shen Yichen suddenly took out the suit jacket and placed it over Jiang Yuning’s shoulders.
