After Marrying the Officer-Chapter 1174 - 1173: Catching the Windfall

Upon hearing Xia Chuyi’s encouragement, the director said, "Chuyi, rest assured. Since you have so much faith in me, I absolutely cannot let you down!"

"Now that we have such a large investment, I will naturally make the movie even better!"

After some thought, the director continued, "Chuyi, since you’ve helped me so loyally, I can’t treat you badly..."

"How about this, I’ll negotiate with the producers to increase your share, so your risk of losing money becomes much smaller."

"That’s not necessary..." Xia Chuyi immediately replied upon hearing the director say so.

But the director firmly shook his head and said, "No, I have to do this, otherwise I won’t feel right in my conscience."

Xia Chuyi: ...

Not feel right?

But with the director doing so, knowing the box office, Xia Chuyi felt even more uneasy!

However, in the end, Xia Chuyi couldn’t persuade the director otherwise.

Because Xia Chuyi knew the final box office and was aware she could recoup her investment.

Not only recoup, but should be able to make a significant profit.

However, the director didn’t know!

So in the director’s eyes, Xia Chuyi was simply helping out of loyalty.

Thus, the director was resolute in wanting to help increase Xia Chuyi’s share.

In the end, this matter was resolved in this way.

Xia Chuyi thought: Initially, she didn’t dare to place ads in this film, fearing it would damage the film’s integrity and classic nature.

Unexpectedly, after all the twists and turns, she still got involved.

And judging from the results... Xia Chuyi knew she made a big profit.

Moreover, since the crew had received a substantial sum of money, the director began to splurge in certain areas — ordered more Youwei’s braised meat rice, allowing the crew to eat to their heart’s content.

In this way, Xia Chuyi seemed to gain benefits again.

Yet, she couldn’t declare she was benefiting!

Just as Xia Chuyi was receiving this large blessing, news of an engagement surfaced from both the Wang Family and Jiang Family.

Upon hearing this news, Xia Chuyi felt quite emotional.

Perhaps someone’s anxious, or perhaps it’s to add joy, the wedding date was set very soon, just a month later, even sooner than Xia Chuyi’s own.

Before the wedding, Xia Chuyi went to visit Jiang Fengqi.

Seeing Jiang Fengqi, he was supporting Wang Zicheng as they strolled in the yard. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

With the Medicinal Food provided by Xia Chuyi, Wang Zicheng’s body was recovering quite quickly, so now he almost looked like a normal person.

Only his face still carried a touch of pallor from recent recovery.

As for Jiang Fengqi’s support, rather than truly supporting him, it was more like holding his arm.

"Cousin and cousin-in-law are such a great match!" At this moment, Xia Chuyi suddenly heard Jiang Shuqin’s voice.

"Shuqin?" Xia Chuyi turned her head and indeed saw Jiang Shuqin, her face filled with relief and envy.

"Why are you here?" Xia Chuyi asked Jiang Shuqin, "Isn’t school still in session?"

Upon hearing that, Jiang Shuqin stuck out her tongue and said, "Oh, my cousin and cousin-in-law are getting married soon, it’s okay if I miss some class..."

Upon hearing these words, Xia Chuyi knew Jiang Shuqin most likely had taken leave or skipped class.

Xia Chuyi shook her head but didn’t say anything to her.

"Shuqin, do you think your cousin sincerely likes Wang Zicheng?" Xia Chuyi asked Jiang Shuqin, glancing at Jiang Fengqi and Wang Zicheng.

"Ah?" Jiang Shuqin was momentarily stunned, then frowned and shook her head, saying, "Honestly, I’m not sure..."

"However, judging by their interaction," Jiang Shuqin asserted, "My cousin will definitely be happy."
