Are you trying to kill me? Still hugging? President Jiang is here.

To surprise Chi Yuan, Jiang Haochen didn't inform Chi Yuan beforehand. Only after arriving in F City and confirming that Chi Yuan's morning filming had finished did he contact Chi Yuan's assistant, Xiao Zhao.

Xiao Zhao was completely stunned when he received the call. How could someone as low-level as him in the company deserve a personal call from his boss?

"President Jiang?" Xiao Zhao grabbed his phone and started running outside.

"Is Chi Yuan with you?" Jiang Haochen asked.

"Brother Chi, you're looking for Brother Chi, right? I'll call him over right now." Little Zhao excitedly went to fetch him.

"Don't tell him yet."

"what?"

"The morning's filming should be over by now. When are you guys going back to the hotel?" Jiang Haochen was near the hotel at this time, but not the one Chi Yuan was staying at, but another one a distance away.

Given his status, it wouldn't be appropriate for him to stay directly in the film crew's hotel.

"Mr. Jiang, are you at the hotel right now?" Xiao Zhao cleverly guessed Jiang Haochen's location. "We... might not be able to get back to the hotel today."

"If we can't go back, do you have other plans?" Jiang Haochen frowned.

Xiao Zhao quickly explained, "The schedule has been changed at the last minute. It's going to rain heavily in F City the day after tomorrow, so the night scene that was originally scheduled to be filmed the day after tomorrow has been moved to today. But we have time this afternoon, so I'll talk to Brother Chi and drive back to the city."

Although it's a lot of trouble, this is a major client. Brother Chi was willing to stay up all night and travel six hours round trip back to City B for this client, so he should be willing to do it this time too.

Jiang Haochen has been very busy with work lately, and he finally managed to find some time to come over, but Chi Yuan was not available, which left him somewhat disappointed.

But he couldn't be as beastly as Cui Dong, who would work all night and come home in the morning, and still have to go to bed with him first.

Jiang Haochen: "Forget it, let him focus on filming."

He looked at the call sheet and saw that the filming location was quite remote these past two days, requiring three to four hours to travel back and forth.

Xiao Zhao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard President Jiang say it was alright. Brother Chi had a lot of action scenes coming up, and he couldn't afford to get injured at this time.

However, it's still necessary to maintain the relationship with the major investor.

"President Jiang, Brother Chi really misses you. He wanted to buy a train ticket back to City B yesterday, but the director wouldn't let him," Xiao Zhao said. "Brother Chi will definitely be happy to know you're here. I'll have him call you back."

Xiao Zhao felt that he was a qualified assistant. He not only had to take care of his boss's daily life, but also help his boss attract investors.

When Jiang Haochen heard that Chi Yuan almost bought a train ticket to go back to find him, his eyes softened for a moment. He thought that since he was already here, he might as well take a look at the kitten.

"I'll go find him."

set.

Because they needed to film scenes in a military camp, the crew set up many tents on set.

During a break from reading the script, Chi Yuan noticed Xiao Zhao darting between the tents, seemingly doing something.

Just as they were about to go over and ask, they ran into Yan Chuan, who had already changed into a military uniform.

Yan Chuan greeted Chi Yuan warmly: "I heard you're treating the crew to milk tea again. That's too much trouble."

Chi Yuan paused for a moment, thinking it must be a company arrangement: "It's only right, we can't always let our seniors pay."

Yan Chuan's eyes crinkled into a smile: "So you only invited me because I did?"

How should I respond to that?

Just as Chi Yuan was wondering how to answer, Yan Chuan suddenly changed the subject: "Did you know Tan Sen before?"

Chi Yuan subconsciously shook his head: "I don't know him."

Although Tan Sen and Chi Yuan were in the same agency before, Tan Sen already had a reputation when Chi Yuan joined. In addition, the artists in the company didn't really think much of the artists under Chang Lei, so the two had never met.

Yan Chuan's lips curled up slightly; he knew it: "Tan Sen has been replaced; you won't see him on set anymore."

Chi Yuan: "Oh."

Why bother telling him about this? Tan Sen hasn't been bothering him. We can't just threaten him now because of the horse farm incident.

Killing chickens to warn monkeys?

Yan Chuan: "The scenes tonight have a lot of emotional ups and downs. Let's go over the scenes when we have some free time."

Chi Yuan naturally wouldn't refuse: "Okay."

Yan Chuan smiled with satisfaction: "Then I'll call you when the time comes."

Yan Chuan didn't linger. He still had a chance, so he went to prepare. He always did this: tease Chi Yuan a little and then stop, letting Chi Yuan realize his difference without actually doing anything.

The temperature in the boiling water was just right.

Just then, Xiao Zhao ran back, and Chi Yuan asked him, "Did Sister Weiran send you money to treat us again?"

Xiao Zhao stammered and gave a curt "hmm".

Sister Weiran wouldn't be so generous. It was fine in the studio before, there weren't many actors. Today we're shooting on location, there are quite a few extras. How much would it cost to hire them all?

President Jiang is truly generous.

"Brother Chi, is there anything you particularly want to eat? I'll have them bring it over," Xiao Zhao asked Chi Yuan.

Chi Yuan: "No need, there's nothing in particular I want to eat."

Xiao Zhao persisted: "Let's buy some more. We're going to be working late tonight. We're already working so hard, we should eat well."

Chi Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Then let's buy two hamburgers, I want to eat them."

Xiao Zhao was speechless: "Why is it hamburgers again?"

The most frequent takeout order Xiao Zhao placed for Chi Yuan was hamburgers, and only the spicy kind.

Chi Yuan said earnestly, "Because it tastes good."

That was the most delicious thing he could remember.

Because there were so many people on set, by the time Assistant Chen contacted the catering truck and they set off for the location, it was already five o'clock.

Autumn and winter are short, and the sky was already dark. As soon as the food truck drove in, the staff, who had already been informed, happily surrounded it.

Filming a night scene late at night, which is exactly when hot milk tea is needed, Director Rong ordered a cup for himself.

When Jiang Haochen came in carrying a hamburger, he saw Chi Yuan rehearsing a scene with Yan Chuan. He was wearing a staff uniform and a hat, so no one noticed him for a moment.

Yan Chuan said to Chi Yuan: "When we're filming later, I might hug you. After all, you're the child I raised. You're going to the battlefield. Besides words of concern, I also need some physical gestures."

Chi Yuan nodded: "Okay."

Yan Chuan: "Then let's give it a try."

Chi Yuan hummed in agreement.

Yan Chuan leaned over and opened his broad arms, embracing the boy, who was a size smaller than him, tightly as if he were a precious treasure.

With a loud "bang!"

Jiang Haochen's hamburger fell heavily onto the folding table.

After arranging the food truck, Xiao Zhao was looking for the boss when he suddenly witnessed this chaotic scene.

She screamed in fright.

"Brother Chi, time for milk tea." Then, ignoring their reactions, she rushed over and pulled Chi Yuan out of Yan Chuan's arms.

Oh my god, still hugging! President Jiang is here!
