Sweet Wife in My Arms

Chapter 532: She Did Not Conform To Common Sense

“Yan Huan, my contract is about to expire. Will you take me with you?”

That was what a smiling Qi Haolin asked Yan Huan. There was an undertone of seriousness lying behind his banter. He felt that it would be great to work with Yan Huan. In fact, it would be the same no matter which entertainment company he chose to be with as he would always have his freedom.

“You want to switch companies?” Yan Huan raised her face and blinked. “Our company cannot afford to pay you much.” As a new company that was still at its startup phase, it did not have much capital. He was an A-list actor that she could not afford to hire. Furthermore, Liang Chen and him would definitely get married in the future. They could then set up their own entertainment company.

“Don’t worry, I won’t charge you much,” Qi Haolin couldn’t help but laugh. “Liang Chen has planned to enjoy her retirement at your place. So do I.”

He and Liang Chen looked at each other. Both of them could sense something in each others’ eyes. It was something soft and loving, slowly fermenting and growing.

“That’s right,” Liang Chen drew a card and played it, “I get along well with you. I’ll join just in name since I have already planned to get married and have children. After all, he will be able to support me and our children in the future.”

Yan Huan picked up a glass of water and took a sip. As soon as she heard what Liang Chen said, she choked on her water and kept coughing.

Lu Yi gave Yan Huan a pat on her back.

The choking eased after some time.

Did Liang Chen choose to retire in her past life because she wanted to get married and have children? However, at that time, her partner was not Qi Haolin. In that lifetime, Qi Haolin was defamed and thus faded out of the entertainment industry. Nobody knew if they were really together or if that was their ending, and there was nothing between them.

In this life, she just flapped her little butterfly wings1 and succeeded in recruiting two extraordinary actors for her new company.

“I can’t afford it.” She picked up her glass and drank from it again. Her company was too small while Liang Chen was too famous. She could not afford to employ her.

“That’s it, stop pretending,” said Liang Chen as she rolled her eyes at her. “It’s just a nominal title. You don’t need to pay or care for us. You can directly take a share from what we earn and you are still unwilling to agree with it?”

“Okay then,” Yan Huan thought for a moment and reluctantly agreed with it.

When she got back to her room, Yan Huan suddenly hugged Lu Yi’s waist tightly. Kissing and hopping around him, “Lu Yi hubby, do you see that? I have actually brought in Liang Chen and Qi Haolin! Liang Chen, the international best actress and Qi Haolin, the best actor for a few years. Both of them are big shots who can take on the entire entertainment industry.”

Lu Yi held her tightly in his arms to prevent her from falling as joy surfeited might turn to sorrow.

“Take good care of yourself. I’m going back tomorrow.”

“Mmm...” Yan Huan cuddled him tightly. She knew that he could not be with her everyday. She was content that they were able to spend these few days together as she knew how busy Lu Yi’s work was. Thus, she knew that it was not easy for him to request for a few days off. In fact, after he got back, there would be a mountain of work waiting for him. He would probably need to burn the midnight oil over the next few days in order to get it back on track.

Right now, they had only filmed about one third of the story. There were still two thirds of it left, which would take a few months to wrap up.

Lu Yi’s flight was at five o’clock the next morning. He left silently while Yan Huan was pretending to be asleep. In fact, she was gnawing at the corner of the quilt as the feeling of separation was maddening. Lu Yi might not like it as well, hence, he left without waking her up.

If Lu Yi did not want her to know, then she would not know it.

However, deep in her heart, she was still upset. She bit the corner of the quilt again and remained awake with her eyes closed until six o’clock. Then, she got up, washed her face, brushed her teeth and went for a run. She led a regular schedule and that did not deviate much from the past. In fact, everything was just back to normal as the state when she first arrived here.

Lu Yi had his own job. She understood it.

She also had her own business to deal with and Lu Yi knew it too.

Hence, they were understanding and supportive of each other. She once said that she would produce a good drama and would film it with conscience. She would definitely make it. If she failed to do so, then it would be a waste of Lu Yi’s effort in setting up the company for her. She would also feel ashamed to face Lu Yi as he had pulled some strings and settled those extremely complicated procedures for her.

She felt that she had been motivated and was in a great state today. Even when she was running, her speed was faster than it was in the past. This made the people behind her start to complain.

Everyone was whining in their heart. The stamina of our Yan Movie Queen is incredibly good.

For instance, Liang Chen’s manager. Even my artist is running. As a manager, I must run with her no matter what.

“Do you know why she’s running so fast?”

Liang Chen’s manager asked Luo Lin. Why is your crazy artist like this? She was so good at running, but she looked so skinny and tiny as if a gust of wind would blow her away. How could she run so fast? Even the men could not catch up with her.

“She was a female soldier before. We cannot compare to her as Yan Huan does not conform to common sense. You will get to know more in the future,” said Luo Lin as she panted with exertion. She felt like she was going to pass out. She really could not take it anymore and had to take a rest.

Liang Chen’s manager was in the same state as Luo Lin. She could not run or walk anymore. She really wanted to give Yan Huan a thumbs up right now, as that woman was not human. She was indeed a superwoman.

Lu Yi had left, but Yan Huan’s life did not seem to have much difference. She was still filming as usual. However, she pulled out all the stops. There were lots of fighting scenes which she did it all by herself. Of course, her skills were extraordinary since she had been a soldier for a year. Director Jin was amazed by Yan Huan every time he watched her perform. It seemed like Yan Huan had no bottom line. Her potential was way greater than what he had expected. She had improved a lot especially in martial arts. It was incredible, but most importantly, she was an eager beaver. She worked like there was no tomorrow, just like how she used to be. She would not slack and she definitely would not give up.

Sometimes, there were actions that were not well performed. Even if he said nothing, Yan Huan would not be satisfied with it. Any scene, any expression, any action that was not good enough would need to be retaken up to ten times in order to meet her strident requirements.

This a reference to the butterfly effect in time travel.
