After being reborn as a rich and beautiful woman, she let herself go.

Chapter 70 Something He's Hiding From Her

A period drama production crew.

Mu Siran had just finished filming her morning scenes and was eating lunch. She saw on her phone that a Lamborghini Veneno had been seen cruising around Tiancheng that day, attracting a crowd of onlookers.

She saw the trending topics last night. Who would have thought that Luo Jiuyu was actually the big boss of Huanyu Group?

She actually rejected him so easily.

I was filled with regret.

If she had known he was the owner of Huanyu Group, she would never have rejected him that snowy night.

I had insomnia last night. I'm not feeling well today; I was constantly lacking energy while filming. The director made me do several takes.

He started yawning again.

Her assistant, Nono, made her a cup of instant coffee. "Sis, your coffee's here. Use it to perk yourself up."

"Did you see the video of that poison car that blew up the streets of Tiancheng?" Mu Siran asked casually as she took the coffee cup.

She always felt that the driver in the car was Luo Jiuyu. Some people took videos, which were only a dozen seconds long, and the driver did not get out of the car. She couldn't see clearly through the glass of the video.

Nono was incredibly excited. "My friends all forwarded it to me. It's so cool! They say the car was initially parked in front of a big hotel, and then someone else saw it outside a shopping mall."

"Can you see what the driver looks like?" she asked again.

Nono shook her head. "No. I heard he's a really handsome guy, and he's out having fun with a pretty girl."

Mu Siran's heart sank.

If the driver is Luo Jiuyu, then who is that pretty young lady?

He and Hua Meimei didn't have any feelings for each other, and their relationship couldn't possibly be so good that they would go out to eat or shop together.

If it wasn't Hua Meimei, did he get a new girlfriend? Did he divorce Hua Meimei? Or was he having an affair and just looking for a casual fling?

My mind was racing, and the food in my mouth tasted like cardboard.

She secretly hoped that the person who prescribed the poison wasn't Luo Jiuyu.

I hope it's not him.

"...Sister Ran, are you alright?" Nuonuo called her several times, but she didn't respond.

"What's wrong?" She snapped out of her reverie, put her coffee cup down on the table, and instantly lost her appetite.

"You don't look well today. Are you feeling unwell?" Nono asked with concern.

“I always feel like I should go back to Tiancheng, and I shouldn’t stay here,” she murmured.

Nono was taken aback, "But your scenes aren't finished yet."

Once you've joined the production team, especially as a lead actor, how can you leave halfway through filming? It would cause significant losses for the production team and also damage the actor's own reputation.

“If I stay any longer, I’ll drift further and further away from him. Oh God, why did I reject him that night…” Mu Siran clutched her head in anguish, filled with regret, as if she had lost the whole world.

Nuonuo roughly understood what she meant. She was regretting rejecting Luo Jiuyu! Ever since she saw Luo Jiuyu's identity revealed last night, she had been absent-minded.

Having been with Mu Siran for a while, Nuonuo had come to understand her personality. Lorne was already good enough, outstanding enough, worth billions; which female celebrity wouldn't want to throw herself at him?

But Mu Siran preferred Luo Jiuyu. Unfortunately, fate was against him; Luo Jiuyu had nothing, and his status and wealth were inferior to his brother Luo En.

Unfortunately, Mu Siran is a woman who values ​​bread more than love, and in the end, she will most likely choose Lorne.

Who could have predicted that a major influencer would turn the tables and reveal that Luo Jiuyu is the founder of Huanyu Group, with a net worth of hundreds of billions, far surpassing Luo En's!

Mu Siran must be kicking herself. If she had agreed to wait for Luo Jiuyu's divorce that snowy night, and then found out his true net worth later, wouldn't she have gotten both love and a super-rich life?

Nono's brain raced, and once she figured out the reason, she realized that Mu Siran's current state was all because of Luo Jiuyu.

"You want to reap the rewards without ever experiencing hardship with others? There's no such thing as a free lunch..." Nuonuo muttered to herself, suddenly looking down on Mu Siran.

Although Nuonuo thought this to herself, she still gently comforted her, "Sister, it's too late to regret it now. You're on set now, so you still have to focus on filming well. That's your livelihood."

Mu Siran bit her lower lip and nodded slightly, but her eyes remained empty and lifeless.

She took a deep breath, trying to cheer herself up, but her hand unconsciously picked up her phone again and started scrolling through Luo Jiuyu's WeChat chat.

The few remaining chat records were from the last snowy night.

A few days later, the crew moved to the suburbs to film on location.

Despite her exhaustion, Mu Siran tried her best to present a perfect image in front of the camera, but the director would still frown and yell "cut" from time to time.

After finishing work, she sat alone in a corner of the set, gazing at the setting sun, filled with anxiety.

Meanwhile, in Tiancheng, Luo Jiuyu had just finished an important meeting and was rubbing his temples.

He grabbed the phone from the table, intending to call Hua Meimei and ask her what she wanted to eat when she got home that night.

Living in a villa in the north of the city for work is inconvenient. Tonight they plan to go back to Zhenlongtai to stay; he has already called Li Xiang to ask her to come home and cook.

My phone suddenly popped up with a call notification.

His heart skipped a beat when he saw the name.

It turned out to be Mu Siran.

"Hello?" His voice was low.

"Jiuyu, how have you been lately? Are you alright?" Mu Siran greeted him casually as the call connected.

He said, "That's good. You're still filming on set?"

"Yes, filming will be finished in another month."

"Oh." He suddenly had nothing to say.

Mu Siran was stung by his coldness and felt a pang of heartache.

"I'm going back to Tiancheng tonight. I'm short on time, so I'll be flying back. Could you pick me up at the airport?"

She had already informed the director that she needed to take a day off to go home because of family matters.

Out of respect for Lorne, the director had no choice but to agree, postponing all of her scenes for the following day so that other actors could take her place.

Luo Jiuyu remained silent for a moment on the other end, then softly replied, "Okay."

He and Mu Siran were childhood friends, so he had no reason not to help with such a small favor. Besides, she had given him some warmth when they were young, brightening his lonely teenage years.

After hanging up the phone, he felt a little uneasy. How should he tell Hua Meimei?

When he returned to Zhenlongtai, Hua Meimei had actually arrived before him and was busy learning to cook with Li Xiang in the kitchen.

He walked over, stood behind Hua Meimei, and without any hesitation in front of Li Xiang, put his arm around her.

"You're back! I'll make you a sea buckthorn and egg drop soup tonight, just wait." Hua Meimei turned to him with a smile.

Seeing that their relationship had progressed so rapidly after they had been away for a few days, Li Xiang couldn't help but smile like an aunt.

"Meimei is very smart and learns things very quickly," Li Xiang praised generously.

Hua Meimei laughed and said, "That's because Aunt Xiang taught me so well."

One sentence made Li Xiang beam with joy.

He smiled and said, "Meimei is really smart." Then he placed a kiss on her forehead.

Tsk tsk, the gentleman has suddenly become enlightened, and his doting on his wife has become unstoppable. Li Xiang turned away embarrassedly, pretending to be busy, and dared not look anymore.

Hua Meimei pushed him away in disgust, "Go outside and wait, don't disturb my cooking."

She didn't like him showing off his affection so openly in front of others; it made her feel embarrassed.

Half an hour later, the hot food was served one after another.

Luo Jiuyu tasted the sea buckthorn and egg drop soup she had made. It was refreshing and not sticky, with a sweet and sour flavor.

"It's delicious, the best soup I've ever had." He gave a thumbs up.

Hua Meimei beamed and gave him another bowl, saying, "Then you should drink more."

"Okay." He calculated the time; after finishing his meal, it would be time to go to the airport to pick someone up.

Seeing that he seemed preoccupied, Hua Meimei asked, "What's wrong?"

“I…” he smiled, “I’m going out for a bit after I finish eating, I’m a little busy.”

Hua Meimei thought he was going back to work. Big bosses are always busy, and she was already very happy that he could have dinner with her on time.

"Okay, eat more, so you don't go hungry while you're working." Her eyes were full of loving smiles, and they shone brightly.

She's been very well-behaved and gentle lately, and he loves her more and more.

His heart skipped a beat. He wanted to tell her the truth, but he was afraid she would misunderstand. He couldn't very well take her with him to pick up Mu Siran at the airport; she would probably be furious.
