She Only Cares About Cultivation-Chapter 1116 - 911: Super Star 85 (Ten-Thousand Word Update) (Part 4)
They refused to make this matter public, but allowed the police to report it as long as they were not mentioned, everything was negotiable.
In fact, that night she didn’t even remember what the girl looked like, so she naturally didn’t go asking anything from them.
She and Ling Yao stayed at the hotel until the sixth day of the first lunar month, and on the seventh, the crew resumed work. On the first day back, she checked the notices and found that her scenes wouldn’t start until a week later. Coincidentally, her scenes in Shanghai were about to begin, so Ling Yao went with her to Shanghai. As soon as the crew saw him, they immediately arranged for him to play a role on par with the male lead as a competing male figure. Thus, "Nuannuan" was set into motion.
While she was busy shuttling between Hengdian and Shanghai, the winter holiday was almost over.
During the gap between the two film projects, she had to fly back to Beijing for classes, and if she had filming, she would balance the schedule between the two crews.
To keep up with her classes, she asked her classmates to use DV cameras to record each class session and save it on her computer. This way, she could catch up on her lessons by using space time when she returned to school.
Dual Cultivation naturally required the help of students from both departments, so she provided them with two DV cameras. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
It was thanks to this buffer that she managed to keep up with the progress in both departments, and her musical practice was done in space.
When she initially applied for leave, she confidently promised to maintain her grades, which is why the leave was granted.
The filming of both projects dragged on until just before the Tomb-Sweeping Festival.
Ling Yao finished his scenes long before the winter break ended, earning a salary of twenty thousand yuan, which he eventually gave to her as a red envelope.
She didn’t hold back either and bought beef to make beef jerky, sending a batch over from time to time, enough to last him ten days to half a month, and then sent more.
Every time she brought beef jerky, he was always surrounded by a large group of boys watching the fun, and thus the title of Qing University’s heartthrob girlfriend landed on her.
This was because Ling Yao hardly spoke to girls at school, and if he encountered anyone confessing to him, he would directly reject them by saying he had a girlfriend.
At first, no one believed him, but later he had her come over to deliver beef jerky and various snacks, using this as an excuse to spread her reputation.
As for Hua Yan’s face, who didn’t recognize it? Anyone who watched the movies they acted in could recognize who she was.
An on-screen couple developing into real life, so well-matched, who would bother him anymore?
Hua Yan didn’t know at first, but later, when boys whistled at her, asking Ling Yao for introductions, and even requesting autographs and photos, it became exposed.
She was quite angry at the time, but he shamelessly said,
"Why don’t you also make it known that I’m your boyfriend? That way neither of us owes the other anything."
This made Hua Yan so angry that she ignored him for a month.
After the Tomb-Sweeping Festival, her life returned to normal. On weekends, she would go to meet the company’s people and continue filming. In order to maintain a presence, Ling Yao would also come over to make guest appearances on weekends, but he only acted in scenes opposite her, forcing Hua Yan to switch from being a director to an actor.
Besides filming, she continued to study, practice her musical instrument, and explore creative music composition in an orderly manner.
After May Day, Liang An excitedly informed her that all the procedures for "Heiress Strategy" had been completed. Although it made it onto a satellite station, it wasn’t one of the top national TV stations, but it was the best benefit he could secure.
"However, we still have a chance since it’s simultaneously being broadcast on the internet and satellite TV!"
"Is the timing set?"
"We can’t get the prime summer slots, but the earliest it can air is late September or after National Day."
This was already great news, considering so many TV dramas can’t even get onto a provincial TV station!
"If ’Heiress Strategy’ is successful, I want to turn your ’Worthy Empress Yun Rong’ into a drama too. By the way, Hua Yan, can you write the ’White Moonlight’ script when you have time? Also, the script I asked you to write, how is that going?"
"I’m working on it, it’s just not that fast, but I completed the ancient-style interlude for ’Heiress Strategy,’ purely played on the guzheng, I’ll send it to you to listen."
Modern dramas often use Western instruments for theme songs, but ancient costume dramas require historical musical instruments to perform.
"Just having the guzheng isn’t enough, I want to incorporate more traditional instruments. Don’t worry about this, our school has a traditional music ensemble, let’s have our production team come to our school to record live, of course, provided you think my creation is up to par."
As they spoke, Hua Yan took out her phone and started playing the music. Because this interlude is played by the female lead in a bamboo forest while the male lead is recovering in the mountains, when Liang An closed his eyes to listen intently, it seemed he could feel the mountain spring trickling into the pool, a unity of man and nature, with the spring water plinking, the tune was delicate and gentle, and the mutual gaze of the male and female leads revealing their feelings, the rippling water strings plucking at their heartstrings, bringing a particular kind of charm.
