After my divorce, I started to have good luck-Chapter 745 - 405: Will Sooner or Later Face Retribution

Fan Xin previously was quite overbearing in the film industry, getting whatever he wanted, and all of this was due to his influential uncle, Fan Yigang.

But now, Fan Yigang is about to retire, which essentially means losing his backing. Those in the film industry will certainly no longer pay attention to him, the nephew of Fan Yigang. Even more worrying for him is that the people he previously manipulated or offended might find ways to take revenge on him.

He is very aware of how arrogant he has been in the film industry, naturally offending many people.

Also, the reason he was able to easily enter Cairong Fund and earn an annual salary of over a million, plus occasional extra income, was primarily because of his powerful uncle, Fan Yigang.

Now that his uncle is retiring, although he is confident he can still maintain his foothold in the company, there is no doubt he won't be as favored and advantaged as before.

Moreover, in the past, he often enjoyed various benefits, including services from beautiful women offered by film companies. In the future, this clearly won't be possible.

What he finds most unbearable is the foreseeable retaliation and sarcastic remarks.

When his uncle was in power, everyone would give him some face, like Tao Yaoyang. In reality, Tao Yaoyang's father's influence is undoubtedly greater than his uncle's, but even so, Tao Yaoyang had to give him face. This was all because of his uncle. As for the time Tao Yaoyang called him a dumbass, it was clearly an accident.

He's been pondering over the past few days how to find an opportunity to reconcile with Tao Yaoyang.

He had thought about retaliating against Tao Yaoyang but, after much consideration, it is clearly unrealistic and unnecessary. Tao Yaoyang's current status is beyond his ability to retaliate against.

Falling out with someone like Tao Yaoyang is obviously unwise; there is no benefit, only harm.

Isn't it just being called a dumbass? He used to call people that often; now being called that once isn't a big deal.

And now that his uncle is stepping down, it seems he doesn't even have the qualification to reconcile with Tao Yaoyang.

Fan Xin still cannot accept this harsh reality, unwillingly saying, "Uncle, you should go to another hospital for a thorough checkup. It might be a misdiagnosis. I seem to remember you just had a physical exam two months ago, didn't you? Back then, you only had a bit of high blood pressure and high cholesterol, right? How come only two months later they found a brain tumor?"

"Several experts have already consulted. Do you think they all lied to me together?" Fan Yigang sighed and said, "I know it's hard for you to accept, and it's the same for me. But this is fate. Like you said, two months ago, I had only minor health issues, but two months later, I've got this illness. Who would have thought? But it is the reality, and we can only choose to accept it."

Fan Xin doesn't want to accept it, but he has no choice. He grits his teeth, wanting to find someone to fight, to vent his frustration and helplessness.

"Xiaoxin, quit your job and come back first. Although I'm retiring, I still have some acquaintances. You're still young and have education and ability; take the civil service exam next year. The Fan Family will need you to be the pillar in the future."

"Okay, I will take it on." Fan Xin tried to gather his spirits, "Uncle, since you've decided to retire, then take good care of your health and don't worry about other things. I'll get on the next flight back to Beijing."

"Alright, I'll wait for you at home then." Fan Yigang said with some comfort.

...

In the afternoon, Chen Feng drove to Hengdian, which is only a little over a hundred kilometers from Xiu Zhou, taking just over an hour.

At the hotel entrance where he was staying, Chen Feng saw Wu Mengting, whom he hadn't met in a few days.

They exchanged a few simple words before Chen Feng went to check in.

After putting away their luggage, they left the hotel and each rented a shared bike to ride to the film base.

The main attraction in Hengdian is the film base, which is quite extensive, with more than a dozen landmarks where many films and TV shows are shot.

To thoroughly tour the expansive film base would take at least a couple of weeks.

Chen Feng indeed had the time, and now that the film crew is on hold, Wu Mengting also finds herself with time to explore, so it's perfect for them to enjoy a leisurely trip here.

In a way, they were finding joy amidst the hardship. After all, the big production "Green Jade Case" could not continue filming for the time being, losing significant money every day it was stalled.

Because of this, the investor Jin Xinyan called Chen Feng early this morning, concerned that the "Green Jade Case" would be indefinitely postponed. If it were, the losses would be immense.

"Brother, do you think I'm being heartless? Even at this time, I still let you come over to join me for a fun trip."

The two rode their bikes side by side leisurely when Wu Mengting suddenly said this.

What else could Chen Feng say? Of course, he said no: "Of course not. Anyway, the crew is on break now, there's nothing to do, so it's a good opportunity to take a break and relax."

Hearing this, Wu Mengting felt happy inside. Meanwhile, she asked with concern, "That Fan Xin you mentioned, how do you plan to reconcile with him?" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"Why should I reconcile with him?" Chen Feng shook his head and said, "He's really disgusting. For a small matter, he keeps targeting and oppressing me. This person will get his just desserts sooner or later, I believe. So, why should I bow to him?"

Wu Mengting was slightly taken aback and then smiled bitterly, saying, "If you don't reconcile with him, won't our film crew have to stay on hold indefinitely?"

Chen Feng said nonchalantly, "If the crew stays on hold, so be it. Even if we can't finish filming this show, it doesn't matter; at most, we just lose money."

"How can that be?" Wu Mengting said anxiously, "We've invested so much effort and money into this drama. If it can't be completed, it would be a huge failure for us. Let's all think of some ways together."

"Alright. I mainly came here this time to hang out with you, not to discuss work matters. Come on, let's make King Qin Palace our first stop."

Chen Feng said, then exerted a little more force to speed up on his bike, leaving Wu Mengting behind.

Seeing this, Wu Mengting had no choice but to bite her tongue and pedal harder to catch up.

In the evening, Chen Feng, following the guide on his phone, took Wu Mengting to a food street, and after having their fill, they wandered around nearby. It was almost nine o'clock when they took a cab back to the hotel.

At about ten o'clock, Jin Xinyan's message came through, indicating she had arrived at the hotel building.

Seeing this, Chen Feng went to open the door.

A few minutes later, Jin Xinyan pushed the door open, and upon seeing Chen Feng sitting in the room, turned to close the door.

"Brother Feng, what do you think we should do next? How long does the film crew have to take a break? If it exceeds three days, I think we might as well pay them half a salary."

Upon meeting, Jin Xinyan asked this, which made Chen Feng a bit unhappy.
