125: Begging
After the contract was signed, Yao Girl was eager to see her courtyard house, so she grabbed Teacher Yu and left.
With nothing to do at the company, Han Wen and Bai Feifei seized the opportunity to have a thrilling and dangerous office battle.
Then, he went upstairs to Money Tree Film and Television to find Han Qingyan. The two companies were just upstairs and downstairs, which was very convenient.
"Hanwen, how did you and Teacher Yu meet? When did you meet?" Bai Feifei asked curiously, "Why have I never heard you mention this before?"
"When did you become so curious and concerned about my affairs?" Han Wen asked instead of answering.
"You're my man, shouldn't I ask you?" Bai Feifei asked, puzzled.
"Fortunately, I am just your man, not your husband, nor the father of your children."
Otherwise, you would have to dig deep into my past and expose everything I had to say.” Han Wen shook his head, somewhat speechless: “Originally, I brought you to my mother’s place to ask her about the script for ‘The White-Browed Hero’.”
Well, what do you care about? You don't want the role anymore? If you don't want it, then forget it.
From now on, you don't need to act anymore; you can just stay home and watch over me all day.
"Hanwen, don't misunderstand, I'm just concerned about you."
That's why I asked casually. Bai Feifei panicked: "Of course I want to act and have roles! Han Wen, don't be angry, please help me this time, okay?"
"I feel like you're doubting my character, like you don't trust me. Maybe, Feifei, you should stop acting."
It would be so nice if she could just stay home, help me raise our children, and keep my mom happy.
"We're not short of money at home, why are you working so hard all this time?" Han Wen urged, using a feigned retreat as a pretext: "I promise you, as long as you have a child, we'll get married."
"Then you'll have whatever you want. Anything I have, I can give you. And my mom will only give you more."
"Korean, let's not talk about that now. Let's talk about the TV series, about the characters, okay?" Bai Feifei changed the subject and continued to plead.
Very well, Bai Feifei's attitude is firm and there's no possibility of changing it. Han Wen has successfully piqued her interest and led her astray.
"I really can't understand you women," Han Wen sighed. "Everyone says that men are responsible for earning money and supporting the family, while women are only responsible for being beautiful."
But what's the situation now? Am I earning less money? Is it not enough for you to spend? Isn't it enough for you to just look pretty? Why bother making yourself suffer?
Besides Mount Tai, Thousand Buddha Mountain, Longkou, Lanshan and Shidao in Shandong Province, the main filming locations for this drama also include Dianchi Lake in southwestern China.
This was truly a long and arduous journey, day and night, requiring immense effort and hard work.
Han Wen's mention of Qilu only made Bai Feifei more determined to go. After all, that's where her hometown is.
If she can go home to see her parents and relatives while filming, it would be a triumphant return to her hometown.
Besides, she didn't go home for the Chinese New Year, and she didn't have time to go home after filming "Between Water and Clouds".
There are no telephones in her hometown, and it's inconvenient to write letters. She hasn't seen or contacted her parents for a long time.
"Korean is not far from Shandong, and my hometown is there. If I go to film a movie, I can go home to see my parents."
"Hanwen, I haven't been back for so long and I miss them terribly. Please have pity on my filial piety and help me out, okay?" Bai Feifei continued to plead.
"Sigh, Feifei, there are hardly any perfect things in this world, things where you can have your cake and eat it too." Han Wen sighed, "Fine, this time, I'll risk everything for you."
If my mom gets angry later, you should run away first. After I calm her down and persuade her, I'll call you back.
Don't come back unless I call you. Remember, you can't stay in the offices downstairs.
Go directly to Yao Nulang; she's rented a place. If all goes well, someone can stay there at night.
"Okay, Hanwen, I understand, thank you." Bai Feifei nodded gratefully.
Han Wen nodded, sighing inwardly. He felt unsatisfied with having fewer women around him. But if he had too many, there would be plenty of trouble.
The two quickly went upstairs to Han Qingyan's office.
"Why did you two come at the same time?" Han Qingyan was very surprised and very happy.
"Feifei's company ran into some trouble, so I came over to help her out," Han Wen replied. "Now that things are settled, I came up to see you."
"Mom, when are you done with work? Let's go home and have dinner together."
"The filming of 'The White-Browed Hero' will start in a while. There are too many things to do lately, and I can't keep up." Han Qingyan shook his head and sighed: "I have to coordinate all sorts of things with the director, producer, actors, and crew."
I'm not a professional, and I don't know much. I can't even leave my own company when things get busy; I'm simply overwhelmed.
Although the investment in this film is not high, we can't just ignore it; it's a real headache.
Previously, if the company only had one project, I could go abroad with them myself. But now the situation is different.
I need to be stationed at the company to oversee operations and prevent chaos at headquarters.
"Returning to the main altar, Mom, you're talking with a real江湖 (jianghu, a term referring to the world of martial arts and chivalry) flavor now." Han Wen glanced at Bai Feifei beside him, indicating that she still had a chance, and chuckled: "Since you're too busy, let Feifei help you share the burden."
"Feifei, her priority right now is to get pregnant. It's not too late for her to come out and help me after she gives birth." Han Qingyan glanced at Bai Feifei: "Feifei, so much time has passed, and there's still no sign of pregnancy."
"I'm sorry, Mom, I didn't want this to happen either." Bai Feifei shook her head and sighed, "It's my fault for being so useless, I'm the one who let you down."
"Maybe it's not your fault, Han Wen might be too." Han Qingyan comforted his daughter-in-law, sighing, "Wenwen suffered too much when he was young, maybe there's something wrong with his health somewhere."
"Mom, don't talk nonsense, I'm fine." Han Wen quickly shook his head and asked with a smile, "Mom, is the casting for 'The White-Browed Hero' all set to start filming?"
"What, you're going to force someone in? Why didn't you say so earlier?" Han Qingyan asked in surprise.
"I didn't want to get involved in this, but since someone has come to me for help, I have no choice but to bite the bullet and ask you." Han Wen sighed, sensing something was off about his mother's tone, and gestured for Bai Feifei beside him to run away quickly.
"Hanwen, you and Mom can talk things over slowly. I'm going to the restroom." The woman understood and quickly slipped away.
"This person's identity is no ordinary one; it's surprising that you'd stand up for him like this." Han Qingyan shook his head and sneered, "Feifei ran away so fast, did she send you to beg me?"
"Mom, you're amazing, you guessed it right away." Han Wen nodded and revealed his true identity.
"She can't even have a child, where does she get the courage to ask you for a role from me?" Han Qingyan was furious: "Go back and tell her there isn't one, the roles have already been cast."
Let her give up this fantasy, have a good baby, and then marry into our family.
Mom isn't an unreasonable person, but Feifei is so foolish. What's so good about acting? Is becoming famous really that important?
Not only do I not make money, but running around all day is exhausting. Aren't I just making myself unhappy?
As long as she gives birth to your child and my grandson, what does it matter if I give her the money tree, Film and Television?
Being both a boss and a lead actress—is that better than what she's doing now?
"Mom, don't get agitated. Take a break and calm down," Han Wen said, trying to comfort her.
