The golden stone flickered.

Cui Jingyang’s eyes gradually lost their sparkle.

But he didn’t stop breathing.

Well, she didn’t have to deal with the aftermath now.

Later, Ming Shu heard from Second Mister Cui that Cui Jingyang fell into a vegetative state, and may not wake up for the rest of his life.

Cui Jingyang had received his punishment, so Second Mister Cui decided to accumulate virtue and just let his brother stay in the hospital.

After the matter was resolved, the drama World began to air.

The heated discussion about Fenghua did not seem to have faded, yet the ongoing World let everyone see a completely different Ming Shu.

The Advisor was cold and ascetic on the surface, but played his cards right in secret.

With the help of makeup and post-production, when the audience first saw the Advisor on the screen, they didn’t think the actor was a girl.

[My classmate told me that this is a girl playing the Advisor, I do not believe it! She’s so handsome!]

[We fans of the original book also think the Advisor is great, but the rest… emmm…]

[Toast to my Dizi!]

[I hope Dizi can play more roles like this, it is simply a different kind of handsome!]

[I’ve broken up with my boyfriend! Dizi, I want to marry you! I’d love to go to Thailand!]

[As a fan of the original book, I must say it’s hard to see a TV show like this. I hope there will be more such works in the future.]

The anti-fans were quiet this time. Ming Shu wondered why they hadn’t come up with new mental notes to curse her.

But as the episodes went on, the anti-fans gradually came alive.

In order to pour dirt on her, these anti-fans stared at the television and dared not blink.

They didn’t find any noticeable points to curse her.

At most, they found some goofs that almost each drama would have.

[It’s shameless to dress up as a man! Don’t think that just because you’re handsome I won’t dislike you. Let me tell you this, we anti-fans will never be defeated!]

[What’s so good about having good acting skills! If you don’t have good moral quality, you won’t go far!]

[Bros, I can’t do this anymore. I watched all the episodes last night. You continue, I’m getting offline to sleep.]

[I’ll hate Wen Di for the rest of my life! Good acting skills won’t buy us off!]

Undoubtedly, Ming Shu received positive comments from both anti-fans and the fans of the original book.

But Gu Xi was not so lucky.

Because of what happened before, her scenes were cut quite a bit.

In the end, it was the Advisor who was more like the protagonist.

Both the male and female protagonists had become supporting roles.

Such changes were too different from the original novel’s content.

The original novel’s fans argued about that fiercely, but some of them didn’t care and just accepted it.

After all, the story would be different after the novel was adapted.

But it was not easy to accept that the different version was good.

Meanwhile, Ming Shu received the news that World II was already in writing.

The Advisor was the protagonist. This plot had been completely separated from the novel, becoming an independent story.

Fortunately, the scriptwriter was the author himself, so there would be no other disputes.

They wanted her to continue to play the Advisor.

After all, not everyone could perform such an Advisor.

If she wouldn’t take the second season… this drama would be over.

Ming Shu asked if they could make Mumu the female protagonist.

The scriptwriter, as well as the author: ????

Mumu’s was just an unimportant role, how could she become the female protagonist?

The scriptwriter was dumbfounded and replied that he needed to think about it further. There would be a long way to go.

Mumu had recently received a role as the third female in a drama that Ming Shu found for her. She had no idea that Ming Shu had already been planning to make her a female protagonist.

…

Second Mister Cui revoked the order to ban Ming Shu as soon as he took power.

What a joke!

She was his little grandaunt!

Who dared force her out?

Not only could he not ban her, he had to respect her!

She must choose from the good resources first.

The entertainment companies under Hengfeng Group were all dumbfounded.

She was not an artist of their company.

Why could she get the good resources first?

Who exactly were their own artists!

Second Mister Cui not only offered resources to Ming Shu, but also handled the Gu family for her.

So, quickly and weirdly, the Gu family declined.

Everyone in the circle thought it was because Cui Jingyang mingled with Gu Xi before.

But in fact, Second Mister Cui did it only to play up to Ming Shu.

Of course…

Ming Shu didn’t care much about the Gu family.

She had her own things to do!

With the Gu family’s decline, Gu Xi’s matter was also exposed.

Then Gu Xi was put in prison.

…

Half a year later…

Ming Shu came back from filming.

She was pelted with ribbons and petals as soon as she entered the house.

In the commotion, Liang Che knelt before her on one knee.

He looked up at her and opened the box in his hand.

The diamond on the ring glistened with tiny broken lights.

“Little Di, will you marry me?”

Mother Wen looked at her with a smile.

Mumu’s eyes were full of tears, as if she was the one who was being proposed to.

Ming Shu asked, “What’s in it for me to marry you?”

Liang Che answered, “When you say go east, I won’t go west. You call the shots in our family, and all the money I make is yours. I’ll buy you snacks every day.”

Probably because of that last sentence, Ming Shu reached out her hand.

Liang Che was stunned, then put the ring on Ming Shu’s finger excitedly.

She said yes! 

Liang Che got up and hugged Ming Shu.

“I like you.”

Ming Shu gave him a hug back.

“Keep it up!”

“…”

Ming Shu then asked, “I flew all day, can we have food now?”

“…”

I am proposing! 

Forget it.

She’d always been like this, she never knew what the atmosphere was.

Mother Wen and Mumu had long prepared food.

Today was not only the day Liang Che proposed to her, but also her birthday.

Dingdong—

They had just sat down when the doorbell rang.

“Go open the door,” Ming Shu ordered Liang Che.

“I’ll go, I’ll go…” Mumu immediately got up and went to the door. “Cui… Boss Cui? Why are you here?”

Second Mister Cui carried a big cake in his hands, followed by two chefs and several bodyguards who were carrying food materials.

Ming Shu enthusiastically welcomed the feast at her door and told Second Mister Cui to help himself just like at home. They were at least partners before.

Liang Che stared at Second Mister Cui, a little unfriendly.

This guy had been popping up a little frequently in recent days.

What did he want to do?

Steal his girl?

No way!

But obviously Second Mister Cui didn’t come for Ming Shu, yet, it was also necessary to please Ming Shu.

His attention was clearly on Mumu.

After dinner he also offered to send Mumu home.

When everything was quiet, Ming Shu lay down on the bed to rest.

Liang Che took a shower and came out, sitting to bedside. “Are you tired?”

“It’s fine. I’m not tired if there is good food.”

Liang Che approached her. “Did you miss me?”

“Come on, young brother, you come to me on average twice a week. Do you own the airport? Tell me, are you tired of being a reporter and there are billions in family fortune waiting for you to inherit?”

“No, I only have you.” Liang Che brushed his fingers over Ming Shu’s face, kissing her.

“I missed you…”

Liang Che kissed her lips.

“Wu…” Ming Shu uttered a small moan. Liang Che pressed down on her hands, intertwining his fingers with hers, and they kissed endlessly.

All his longing thoughts seemed to find an outlet, and the squall and rain threatened to drown her.

Ming Shu felt that she couldn’t run away tonight, so she closed her eyes.
