Chapter 118
Life in the Shen family was truly enjoyable.
Perhaps out of concern for Shen Tang's comfort, the members of the Shen family were incredibly warm and welcoming when appropriate, while also understanding the need to give her personal space without excessive intrusion.
However, the kinder they were to her, the more guilty Shen Tang felt.
She could never overcome the hurdle in her heart, always believing herself to be a shameless thief.
But she dared not speak it aloud; it was a secret she would never reveal in her lifetime.
After all, not everyone could accept living within the pages of a book.
The filming for the drama soon reached its conclusion, and Shen Tang's role was also coming to an end.
During this time, Shen Tang had become close with everyone, even the crew members were a little reluctant to see her leave.
After all, not everyone was so polite and generous. Fôllôw new stories at novelhall.com
The director, for once, was willing to spend some money and planned to treat everyone to a meal at a restaurant.
Qi Yue widened her eyes in surprise, "The stingy director is actually willing to spend money!"
The director was given the nickname "stingy director" behind his back because, in reality, he was quite thrifty, saving money and investing it all in filming.
Of course, everyone's teasing was in good spirits.
Shen Tang glanced behind her and blinked, pretending not to know, "What stingy director? I have no idea."
"Are you pretending? It's the director, of course. He's the stingiest. Don't you know? I even saw him rummaging through the trash cans once—"
"Speaking ill of others behind their back isn't very nice!"
The director's voice suddenly appeared behind them, startling Qi Yue.
"Why don't you make any sound when you walk?"
"That's not the point."
"It is the point! You're not exactly light, so why is there no sound at all?"
The director lowered his head and looked at his protruding belly, then glanced at Qi Yue's thin and stick-like figure, pursing his lips, "So what if I'm fat? Have you been eating my rice? My weight is agile."
Qi Yue raised an eyebrow, crossing her arms, "Yes, I have been eating your food."
Almost forgot, the boxed lunches provided by Qi Yue's family's hotel were now the crew's free meals.
As the saying goes, don't bite the hand that feeds you. After eating Qi's food for so long, the director couldn't stand straight in front of Qi Yue.
He shifted his gaze away, cleared his throat, and said, "Anyway, um, the restaurant is already booked, we're just missing the two of you."
"Let's go then."
Everyone was excited, thinking they could finally take advantage of the director, but to their surprise, when they arrived at the place, it turned out to be a shabby restaurant.
Thinking about the Qi family's investment, he decided to endure it!
As mentioned before, the director was very strict when it came to filming, but in daily life, he was more friendly. Wherever there was gossip, he would be there.
Sure enough, as soon as Tang Shuqing turned his head to talk to Shen Tang, the director's eyes lit up.
Tang Shuqing had something to say, but he couldn't say it under the director's gaze.
The director blinked and urged, "Carry on with your conversation, don't mind me."
However, as a grown man, it was impossible for him to pretend not to see anything.
Hearing the director's words, Qi Yue's body leaned slightly, her ears perked up.
Shen Tang didn't mind, but Tang Shuqing was infuriated.
He clenched his teeth and squeezed towards the director again, saying, "Do you two not have anything else to do?"
"No, we're just waiting for the food," Shen Tang replied.
As soon as she finished speaking, the boss brought the dishes.
Each plate was very large, bigger than a face, and there was a generous portion of food in each. The plates were so full that they were almost overflowing.
But with only six dishes, the table was completely filled.
Everyone at the table, except for the director, couldn't help but open their mouths wide in surprise.
"Why are there so many dishes?"
"Oh my god!"
The director smirked triumphantly and said, "For those who claim it's not enough, you must finish these dishes before leaving today."
Qi Yue: "......"
Why don't you just give me your ID card directly!
As soon as the dish arrived, Shen Tang couldn't wait to take a bite, and the taste was indeed good.
Then she buried her head and ate voraciously.
Completely oblivious to the occasional glances from Tang Shuqing beside her.
It was Qi Yue who noticed this and rolled his eyes disapprovingly.
With his mindset, it was as clear as day to everyone except Shen Tang, who remained clueless.
But she thought he didn't stand a chance.
Although he was handsome and wealthy, he was nothing compared to Gu Huaian.
Shen Tang wasn't blind, she didn't want pearls, she wanted fish eyes.
