After a Contractual Marriage, Little Taotie Went Viral!-Chapter 410 - 397: Is Pei Yan Retiring??

Qin Yun used a few minutes of rest to finish off the cake.

After eating, she had to continue filming.

In the drama, Li Beauty and Gu Changjun had already pierced the thin window paper.

Gu Changjun knew that Li Beauty had fallen in love with him.

And his feelings for Li Beauty had already changed in nature.

What was originally just simple use, became more uncomfortable as it went on.

Li Beauty genuinely treated him as a lover to care for.

One time during a chat, she even talked about her hometown, saying that when she had the chance, she would definitely take Gu Changjun home to see it.

"You must come and see my hometown. It’s beautiful, very quiet, with no worldly clamor, no scheming." 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"I’ll just take you back to farm, grow corn if you like corn, grow potatoes if you like potatoes, okay?"

Li Beauty looked at Gu Changjun with an innocent face, and Gu Changjun smiled, lifting her hair behind her ear, tucking it at the back of her head.

"Okay."

His eyes were exceptionally gentle when he agreed, with only Li Beauty’s shadow in his pupils.

Li Beauty was full of joy.

She had finally walked out, and meeting Gu Changjun was her blessing.

In March, on her birthday, Gu Changjun even deliberately pushed back work to buy her a small cake.

As is known, cakes were a very scarce thing at this time, generally unavailable to the average person.

Yet Gu Changjun managed to get one for her, and even bought her a small dress, looking exceptionally pretty on her.

Gu Changjun was awestruck watching her change into the dress.

At night, the two even drank a little wine, and what followed seemed natural, with Gu Changjun staying over.

However, the two didn’t have any intimate relationship.

Gu Changjun just held Li Beauty, and they chatted all night. Gu Changjun only left the next morning.

Li Beauty walked him to the door.

"Goodbye."

She waved goodbye with a smile, the white dress she wore swaying in the breeze.

Gu Changjun didn’t want to leave, but he had a lot to do and couldn’t stay.

"Goodbye."

Neither of them would know, after saying this goodbye, when they met again, everything would have changed.

"Great, cut!" the director excitedly yelled cut.

This was Qin Yun’s last scene in Mystery Shadow, and it was filmed beautifully, the shattered fragility evoking a sense of heartache at first glance.

No one could be more suitable for this role than her.

"Congratulations to Teacher Qin on wrapping up, well done, well done!!"

The director led the cheers. With Qin Yun’s scenes finished, it meant that the completion of this drama was even faster.

An Yueqian had Lin Huan send flowers over, and Pei Yan also arranged for a bouquet. The crew also prepared bouquets.

Qin Yun struggled to hold the bouquet, thanking all the staff, "Thank you all for your care over such a long time. I’m treating everyone to dinner tonight, and I hope you all can come. Thank you all!"

Qin Yun still managed basic social interactions. She had Yuanyuan notify everyone and booked the restaurant for a gathering that evening.

Chen Lan glanced at Pei Yan and smiled.

"Thank you, Teacher Qin."

"Thank you, Sister Qin Yun."

Everyone in the crew agreed to join the dinner.

Except for the two who were embarrassed to come after being reprimanded by An Yueqian for gossiping about Qin Yun.

Qin Yun knew, but she didn’t give them a way out.

We are all adults, responsible for our actions.

No one is born pitiful.

"Not at all, not at all."

Qin Yun said with a smile, then went to the makeup room to remove her makeup and change clothes.

She smacked her lips, relishing the question to Yuanyuan, "Is there any of the little cakes Pei Yan bought earlier left?"

She had a strawberry mousse earlier, and now she wanted to try the white peach one.

Yuanyuan immediately fetched one, "We have them, Mr. Pei said whenever you want, he’ll send them over."

Qin Yun opened it, it was her favorite flavor, eating it in a great mood.

...

That evening, because Qin Yun was treating for dinner, the night scene originally scheduled wasn’t shot. Everyone went to the hotel banquet hall, filling several tables. Everyone knew Qin Yun’s chef cooked delicious meals.

Chen Lan mentioned, and Qin Yun directly had the chef invited over to cook for everyone.

Everyone was thrilled, and Chen Lan ordered several dishes.

Qin Yun, Pei Yan, An Yueqian, Wei Haocang, and several other main actors, including some directors, sat at one table.

The atmosphere at this table wasn’t as lively as others but had more depth.

Their discussions revolved around acting and development.

Chen Lan subtly inquired what Pei Yan planned post this drama.

Who knew Pei Yan laughed when he heard and said, "I don’t plan to arrange work for the time being, want to spend more time with family."

If Qin Yun is pregnant, she surely couldn’t be left alone. He’d rather skip work to accompany her.

Chen Lan was stunned.

Was Pei Yan going into retirement?

Perhaps Pei Yan noticed his obvious look and shook his head, explaining, "Just taking a break for a while."

But how long this break would be, was uncertain.

After all ten months of pregnancy, plus childbirth and childcare...

Qin Yun waited for them to finish chatting before quietly asking, "You’re taking a break?"

When was this decision made? Why wasn’t there any sign?

Under the table, Pei Yan held her hand in reverse, "Yes, I’ll be with you, so you don’t have to worry."

A woman being pregnant for the first time would surely be nervous and flustered. How could he let Qin Yun face these negative emotions alone?

Qin Yun was bewildered, "Huh?"

Accompany her?

She hadn’t planned to take a break, just mentioned resting a while for arranging business regarding the live streaming company.

Qin Yun was confused but didn’t ask much with so many people around, planning to discuss with Pei Yan after returning.

But they ate late, even Chen Lan got drunk, as did An Yueqian.

Hugging Qin Yun, she promised to be the godmother of Qin Yun’s child, having the gifts ready.

Qin Yun was exasperated, and along with Pei Yan sent everyone back to the hotel, leaving Lin Huan to watch over her before they left.

When they got back to the hotel, it was already past midnight. Pei Yan checked the time and carried her to the bathroom, making her take a bath then sleep.

Pei Yan whispered, "You need to rest more now, no staying up late, goodnight."

The goodnight kiss landed on Qin Yun’s forehead, the warm sensation making her close her eyes instinctively, almost falling asleep in Pei Yan’s arms.

Half-asleep, Little A suddenly said, "Hidden task triggered."

The sudden cold voice startled Qin Yun, "Do you know scaring people can be fatal? Can’t you say it during the day?"

"Your Highness, I will speak only when a task is triggered!" Little A sighed softly.

Qin Yun asked, "What task was triggered?"
