Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife-Chapter 864 - 862: To Prove Myself (Part 1)

But Si Han never cried or lost her temper because of Director Sun’s harsh scolding. Instead, she earnestly sought advice from the director and the experienced people around her, again and again, tirelessly repeating the scenes Director Sun criticized as being terrible.

This psychological resilience, neither overly confident nor overly self-deprecating, never blaming others, and always addressing problems from the root within oneself, is something even Fang Kai, who has been immersed in the entertainment industry for many years, deeply admires.

Not to mention that she is only an eighteen-year-old girl, even at twenty-eight, possessing such grace and an approach to handling matters is extremely rare.

It’s undeniable that the Ji Family has indeed raised her exceptionally well.

Such a person as Si Han made Fang Kai, who grew up in the lower strata of society, view the people and affairs of the upper class in a new light. Consequently, Fang Kai’s perception of the elite, usually viewed from afar and untouchable, changed.

He Yinyin was lightly rebuked by Fang Kai, her face turned slightly pale. After Fang Kai left, she regained composure and secretly muttered, "Look at him flaunting, isn’t it just because Director Sun’s support allowed him to sail smoothly? Showing off in front of us, while secretly, he might have crawled onto the beds of various directors and investors."

The makeup artist dared not agree with her words, after all, neither Director Sun nor Fang Kai could be offended.

As for Si Han, though her background is substantial, wasn’t it all hearsay? Gossiping a bit isn’t a big deal!

Thus, this gossip in the makeup room spread to nearly the entire crew by lunchtime, except for the people involved.

Si Han, holding the lunch box brought by the driver, ate while contemplating the scene she had just performed, which resulted in two consecutive NGs. Tian Fang came over after picking up her lunch box from the crew’s catering, her expression slightly different from before.

Initially, Si Han didn’t pay much attention, only picking out most of the meat from her lunch box to give to Tian Fang.

"Sister Fang, help me eat some, I need to maintain my weight, yet my mom always prepares so much meat."

At first, Le Tong used to prepare lunch boxes for both Tian Fang and Si Han, but Tian Fang said that the crew provided meals, and not to make it too special, as it wouldn’t look good. Hence, Le Tong prepared lunch for only one, but the portions were enough for two or three people.

Si Han, being clever, always found excuses like needing to diet to pass her food and meat to Tian Fang.

Tian Fang was increasingly fond of the Ji Family.

She had encountered many wealthy families, but rarely anyone as approachable and considerate as the Ji Family.

Perhaps because of this, Tian Fang’s affection for Si Han had surpassed that of an agent for an artist, it was more akin to a parent’s protectiveness of their child.

Si Han was halfway through her meal when she noticed something was off. Usually, Sister Fang wouldn’t stop talking while eating, but today why was it so quiet?

Si Han finally lifted her gaze to check on Sister Fang and realized her expression didn’t seem right. Her way of eating didn’t seem right either, with a fierce look as if she was consuming not a delicious meal, but an arch enemy she despised deeply.

"Sister Fang, what’s wrong? Not in a good mood?" Si Han scooted closer to Tian Fang with her lunch box, asking softly.

This place was busy with people, and Si Han always conversed with Tian Fang discreetly.

Tian Fang raised her eye lids to glance at her, then took a deep breath, shook her head in denial, "No, I was just thinking about how Brother Zhihao said I’ve gotten fatter, and I’m a bit annoyed."

Si Han is simple-minded, but not naive.

Having interacted with Tian Fang for quite a while, she knew Tian Fang was a magnanimous woman, and her relationship with Brother Zhihao was solid as gold. They got registered at the end of last year and planned to marry by Mid-Autumn this year, how could she be angry over mere comments about weight?

Moreover, Tian Fang had been with her every day in the crew, and had visibly lost weight, there was no chance she was gaining weight.

"Sister, just tell me the truth, is someone else saying that I won this role by charming Director Sun with my looks?"

Si Han had heard such gossip from the start, initially angry, but eventually grew numb to it.

She gradually understood, rather than wasting time explaining or arguing with these people, it was better to use her actions to shape the character well.

Actions speak louder than words, she wanted those spreading rumors to know that Si Han caught Director Sun’s favor and recognition through her talent, not by relying on her appearance!

Tian Fang gave her a deep look, thinking, there were indeed people saying she enchanted others with her looks, but the target was not Director Sun, it was her own dear father!

Tian Fang couldn’t bear to tell this innocent girl about those rumors, fearing it would taint her mind.

"Alright, Nuonuo, don’t mind them, just focus on filming well."

Tian Fang quickly redirected the little girl’s thoughts. Young Master Ji always said his sister was a bit silly and clumsy, but to Tian Fang, this girl was not only clever but had a perceptiveness far beyond her years!

Although it wasn’t great for Si Han to misunderstand the gossip being about her and Director Sun, it was surely better than her knowing the gossip pertained to her father’s matters?

Si Han only assumed Sister Tian Fang heard something nastier this time, but didn’t expect even the protagonist of the gossip had changed. She thoughtfully comforted Tian Fang, "Sister Fang, rest assured, I won’t let those rumors bother me, you can be at ease too. I will prove through my actions, that I am not the worst artist you’ve managed!"

Through filming in the crew these days, Si Han learned that Tian Fang was quite reputable in the entertainment industry. Previous artists she managed might not have reached Fang Kai’s level, but were steadily rising, nearing Fang Kai’s caliber.

However, such a renowned agent came forward to manage her, a clueless and inexperienced newcomer, inevitably leading people to speculate she must have offended some big shots to end up in such a predicament.

Si Han wasn’t bothered by how much speculation she herself faced, but was deeply concerned about Tian Fang enduring such nasty gossip due to her.

Thus, whether for herself or Tian Fang, she vowed to make a name for herself in this film, even if she couldn’t become an instant sensation like Fang Kai in Fiery, she must at least ensure people remember there’s an actor named Si Han!

And not vanish like a meteor, "whoosh" across the audience’s sight and disappear instantly.

Motivated by this determination, Si Han immersed herself in her work with more seriousness and effort than ever before.
