However, the scene before their eyes made Tao Ran a little intoxicated. What Aunt Zhong presented to them was a side that they had never seen before.

As he danced to the music, the sleeves on his wrists fluttered to the rhythm, causing one to be immersed in it.

While he was frowning and smiling, he seemed to have the gentleness of a young girl, but there was also an infinite charm contained within. In the distance, there was also a trace of motherly radiance.

"Grandmother is so beautiful." An An said in a small voice.

"Shh, lower your voice. Don't disturb my grandma." Tao Ran lightly tapped his lips with his finger.

"Uncle, I'm already very quiet!" An An An whispered to Tao Ran.

"I know, uncle knows you're good." Tao Ran also whispered to An An.

The two men's gazes returned to the stage. Auntie Zhong was definitely a star that caught the eyes of many. People couldn't bear to look away for even half a step. The two of them quietly watched from within the music. Even An An, who was usually very active, quietened down … He held his breath and watched.

From the moment Tao Tian got off his brother's car, his heart had started beating erratically. With every step he took, she thought that if she opened the door and saw Lei Zichen leaning against the door with a devilish smile that she had never seen before, looking at her in his usual posture, she would blame herself for being useless. After so many years had passed, seeing his face that could topple all the living beings, her heart would still beat erratically as usual.

Tao Tian hesitated at the dressing room door for a long time. Finally, he took a deep breath and was about to push open the door.

"What are you thinking about? Stunning for so long while while staring at a door." A familiar voice rang in her ears, a voice that she would remember for the rest of her life.

Tao Tian abruptly turned his head. Lei Zichen was indeed looking at her from the side in his usual posture.

"I …" Tao Tian was dancing and gesticulating, but he didn't know how to explain himself.

"Could it be …" Lei Zichen drew his body closer to Tao Tian and slowly lowered his body, as if he wanted to kiss him.

"Lei Zichen, don't act recklessly. This is the company!" Tao Tian was shocked by Lei Zichen's audacity and shouted out loudly.

Lei Zichen smiled as he lifted his head. He moved his face over Tao Tian's, gently brushing against his cheek. Tao Tian didn't know what Lei Zichen wanted to do, but his hands were clenched into fists and he was shaking nervously.

"Could it be that Miss An doesn't want to see me?" Lei Zichen whispered these words into Tao Tian's ear. Then, he pushed the door open with a smile.

Inside, Qi Xue'er was sitting upright, while Lin Qian'er was helping her dress up.

"Lei Dong, you're here!" Upon seeing Lei Zichen and Qi Xue, her face immediately lit up.

"Qian'er, why did you come so early!?" Tao Tian looked at Lin Qian'er in disbelief.

"What, An Xin, I'm here a day early, do you have to be so surprised!?" Lin Qian'er sniffed with a dissatisfied look on her face.

"No, it's just …" Tao Tian pointed at Lin Qian'er, "Is it really that rare!"

"It was me, An Xin. I called Qian'er to tell her to come first. I thought your little devil might need to be taken care of." Qi Xue'er purposely emphasized the words' Little Devil '. For some reason, perhaps it was a woman's intuition towards her own man, she had a feeling that this An Xin and Lei Zichen were not simple.

Last night, as soon as she walked into the hotel room, Lei Zichen couldn't help but throw her onto the floor.

"Zichen, don't be like this. Can you take a bath first?" Caught off guard by Lei Zichen's fierce force, Qi Xue'er lay on the ground stiffly without moving an inch as she pleaded.

Lei Zichen didn't say a word, but used one hand to wrap around both of Qi Xue'er's hands.

Qi Xue'er closed her eyes helplessly, waiting for the tempest to come.

In the depths of her heart, she thought, there was love for him, but sometimes he was an angel or a demon, and when she was so humble, she really did not dare to love him.

"Lei Dong, don't, I still need to rush the announcement, don't …" Qi Xue'er pleaded softly, but she didn't dare to speak too loudly for fear of angering Lei Zichen.

"Shut up. I'm letting everyone see my traces." Lei Zichen roared loudly, not allowing Qi Xue'er to have any objections.

Wei Xue'er bit her lip and said nothing.

This was clearly a love affair, but she could not feel any warmth from it. She could only faintly feel that ever since Lei Zichen arrived in S City, he had become much more tyrannical and unfathomable. It was most likely due to this makeup artist.

Otherwise, why would a small makeup artist be worthy of his personally saving her, and why would the two of them be so ambiguous and their gazes be tangled? Even An Xin, who saw Lei Zichen's appearance, felt that something was amiss, even though Lin Qian'er might not notice it, but this Qi Xue'er was still sensitive enough to detect it.

"A small makeup artist came to rob me of my man? Why should she even have children! " Qi Xue'er thought hard in her heart as she desperately tried to wash herself. She couldn't tell what she was feeling towards Lei Zichen, whether it was vanity, reliance, or love.

He already had a fiancée, the woman who had been hiding behind him all this time. He even had an ex-wife who had gone to heaven with a lot of rumors about her, real or fake.

However, this was exactly how she felt. The more she wanted, the more she wanted. One step at a time, she was going to reach her current position. She could not allow even the slightest mistake to occur.

She looked at the pain all over her body. She had to defend her rights and fight to the end …

Hearing the words' Little Devil ', Lei Zichen's expression immediately changed. After so many years, Tao Tian had finally recovered, but he didn't know whether he was happy or sad.

The Tao Tian before him was no longer the same as before. He was just like an ordinary woman in a city, relying on his own hard work to earn money to support a child.

She wouldn't kill him anymore. Shouldn't the two, who already had no interests to fight and had no enmity with each other, become clearer and purer?

However, he still couldn't let go of the hatred in his heart. He still couldn't forget the love.

"Hehe, thank you for Miss Qi's concern. Uncle An An is on vacation today, so he brought An An out to play." Tao Tian did not notice anything amiss, but continued to converse happily with Qi Xue'er.

"That's good, that's good." Qi Xue'er was also smiling, but her eyes were full of caution, "Lei Dong, Director Wang suddenly resigned from his position. It's really strange, today there's a new female director. Even I have to change two directors for this flyer, I don't know if it'll work." Qi Xue'er said tenderly.

"Don't worry, I've got the best directors for you. I'm sure you'll be satisfied with them." Lei Zichen walked over, put his arm around Qi Xue's shoulders and said with a smile.

This action caused Tao Tian's face to twitch a bit. This manner was too familiar yet also too unfamiliar; this beauty no longer belonged to him. But, when did he stop? She hadn't even had the time to properly immerse herself in this, and had already disappeared without a trace.

"An Xin, what are you daydreaming for? Hurry up and come over to help." Lin Qian'er shouted loudly.

"Coming, coming." Tao Tian smiled and began to busy himself.

Lei Zichen only watched on with a smile, not saying a word.

"Director Lei, why do you think Director Wang stopped filming halfway through the filming?" Qi Xue'er asked curiously.

Tao Tian, who was busying himself at the side, suddenly stopped his hands, feeling a little uncomfortable. He wanted to hear Lei Zichen's explanation. Just how was he going to explain all of this to Qi Xue'er?

"Maybe he doesn't want to do it himself." He didn't look at Tao Tian at all, but Tao Tian was actually very grateful in his heart. After all, she needed this job to provide for her safety, and this matter was extremely sensitive, so it would definitely affect her work. He didn't expect that Lei Zichen would casually laugh as he went over.

"So it's like that." Qi Xue'er didn't pursue the matter further, only lowering her head as if deep in thought.

"Does Miss An live with your brother?" Lei Zichen asked Tao Yao with a smile. Every time they approached, Tao Tian would feel like a bomb that could explode at any time, filled with an unstable and unsafe atmosphere.

"Yes," Tao Tian pretended to be calm as he asked, "Lei Dong, is there a problem?"

"Nothing, I'm just curious about who the little devil's father is." Lei Zichen whispered. Only Tao Tian could clearly hear his words.

"You …" Tao Tian pointed at Lei Zichen with a flushed face.

"Don't worry, Miss An. I just think that you look like an old friend of mine. However, that old friend has already gone to heaven." Lei Zichen spoke with a relaxed expression, but his eyes were constantly scanning Tao Tian. The situation between the two of them was more like a silent confrontation.

"Since that person is no longer here, I naturally am not your old friend." Tao Tian's hands began to busy himself with his own matters.

"Oh, that's true too …" Lei Zichen moved his face away with an enigmatic smile on his face.

"Lei Dong, you and An Xin, don't tell me that you have something to say to your girlfriend? You're not trying to seduce her in front of her, are you?!" Lin Qian'er said quickly.

"Miss Lin is really funny." Lei Zichen smiled and pointed at Lin Qian'er, neither denying nor admitting her words.

"Qian'er, what nonsense are you talking about! "In front of Xue'er!" Tao Tian scolded Lin Qian'er.

Lin Qian`er stuck out her tongue and didn't say anything else, she just kept working with her head down.

Not long after, Lin Qian'er was the first to be finished, and everyone headed towards the beach from the day before to make up for the unfinished shoot.

"Xue'er, it should be enough now." After everyone stopped, Lin Qian'er and Tao Tian helped to tidy up Qi Xue'er's makeup before starting the filming. This time, Lei Zichen had hired a female director, who was quite well-known in the industry and could compete with Director Wang.

The opening moment of the auction was Tao Tian's free time. Tao Tian only lowered his head to clean up the makeup and clothes he needed to use as well as some of the stuff that he had randomly dropped.

Lei Zichen silently watched her from the side. Regardless of whether he wanted to or not, his gaze would never escape Tao Tian's sight.

In that life-and-death game, it was unknown if he was the loser.

The scene proceeded in an orderly manner, but no one knew that a storm was quietly approaching.

A gust of wind blew by. A small earring that was used by Qi Xue'er fell to the ground by the sea breeze. Tao Tian bent down to pick it up, but the wind kept blowing it further and further away.
