Meanwhile, Du Meilan, Xu Mingzhi and Wen Man had finished their meal at WIld Lily and went to the Four Seasons club. They booked the super-luxurious VIP room.

When the waiter saw the three of them, he knew that they were rich. After placing the order for them, he tactfully hinted that they provide male companions.

The three friends sneered at the same time.

Did he think they’re stupid enough to spend money on men?

Men would only slow them down.

“How manly are the men?” Du Meilan gave Xu Mingzhi a glance. “Can they beat my in-law?”

The waiter glanced at Xu Mingzhi, who was leisurely drinking tea and had the air of a martial arts expert. He couldn’t figure out what these three swordswomen were up to, so he obediently retreated.

Five days later, the snow had melted completely. The New Year’s atmosphere in A City had faded, and the weather showed signs of warming up.

Pei Shizhan took a private jet to go abroad again.

After he answered his father’s question, Pei Qingshen only said two things.

He would only acknowledge Su Meilan as his daughter-in-law until his death. He would never ever see the other woman and would never acknowledge her.

He asked him to go abroad. There were two reasons for doing this. One was to let Du Meilan live in the Pei family with a peace of mind. The other was to prevent his son from meeting the other woman! He wanted to separate them!

Pei Qingshen angrily told Du Meilan what he said, and she laughed.

At first, she wanted to say that it was unnecessary, but after thinking about it, she agreed. The Pei Corporation needed someone abroad, and both of them could not stay in the country at the same time. Moreover, she had just met new friends and wanted to spend time with her children. It was obviously more appropriate for Pei Shizhan to go.

She was married into the Pei family for decades, and she liked her father-in-law the most. She did not feel that she had lost anything because she’d met him.

Du Meilan returned to the Pei family’s old residence. The old residence was bustling with life every day. She accompanied her elder daughter for her prenatal examination, sent her grandson to classes, and went shopping with her future daughter-in-law.

She seemed busy, but she was still calm and elegant. She enjoyed it, and she quickly fell into a routine.

On the same day, Su Ji saw the results of the preliminary audition for the calligraphy competition.

The shortlisted candidates had their pen names, but most of her students had the same pen names as their account IDs.

Su Ji checked the IDs against the shortlisted list.

Pei Huai was sitting opposite her, and the two of them had lunch at Godear.

Su Ji mumbled a string of ID numbers, and then searched the shortlisted list one by one seriously.

She barely touched the few pieces of the steak Pei Huai cut for her.

“It’s fine as long as someone helps you win the championship. You don’t have to identify them one by one. It’s tiring for the eyes,” he said casually, but his brows were furrowed.

Su Ji did not stop. “It’s probability. I want to calculate the probability of success.”

On New Year’s day, Xu Mingzhi called Liu Yiqing. After all, she was her daughter’s teacher.

However, she did not expect that the phone call would last more than half an hour. Liu Yiqing was really thorough in whatever she did. After she finally finished talking to Xu Mingzhi, she asked her to pass the phone to Su Ji and then talked to Su Ji for another half an hour.

There was only one purpose, which was to help Su Ji graduate in time.

The more popular Su Ji was now, the more people were watching her and waiting to see if she could graduate successfully.

If she failed to graduate in the end, or the news of her delayed graduation came out, the internet would be filled with disappointments and comments that she delayed her studies in order to make money…

Sonya used to be the victim.

Su Ji wasn’t afraid of the comments on the internet, but she was really afraid of Liu Yiqing nagging. If she couldn’t graduate, Liu Yiqing wouldn’t let her off.

Therefore, she had to be absolutely sure of her success in this calligraphy competition.

After going through it one last time, she saw many familiar names and felt a little more at ease.

However, there was one name that she had never seen before and had a high ranking, similar to Professor Zhu’s.

This ranking wasn’t completely based on how well they did, but those who were ranked at the top were basically quite good.

And that person’s pen name was “Helping my wife win the championship”.

Pei Huai noticed that she had seen the name.

The next second, he heard her say, “how pathetic.”

Pei Huai: “…”

Immediately after, Su Ji placed her fork on the beef and continued to say shocking things, “it’s fine if he wants to win it for himself, but he’s doing it for his wife. If he dares to take my trophy, I will take his wife!”

Pei Huai: “…’”

Why was that necessary?

Su Ji ate a few mouthfuls of meat when her phone vibrated again.

It was a message from Si Jingchuan.

[ “Boss, did you forget that we have a meeting today?” ]

He sent a photo of the meeting room. Huang Huayu and Han Junlei were sitting in front. Han Junlei was talking, while Huang Huayu was caught with his eyes closed. He looked funny.

The only good-looking person in the photo was Xu Ni, who was sitting next to him.

Xu Ni was wearing a trendy t-shirt today. It was a wide-collared woman’s top. Her hair had grown a little longer since she had not cut it.

It was her side profile. At that time, she was talking to Yu Ling opposite her. Her eyes were like autumn water, glistening with light, and there was a cheeky smile on her face.

Pei Huai frowned when he saw her put down her fork after just two bites.

Su Ji moved her finger and replied to the message.

...

[ “You really choose the best angle for this photo.” ]

[ “Right?” ]

[ “I did forget about the meeting. I’ll be there later.” ]

[ “It’s okay. It’s already halfway through. I’ll tell Director Han and update you later. Am I the best assistant or what?” ]

Su Ji was about to send him an emoji with fiery red lips, but when she saw Pei Huai looking at her from the corner of her eye, she moved her finger to the side and sent a serious emoji of patting a baby’s head.

Pei Huai retracted his gaze.

By the time Su Ji finished eating, Si Jingchuan had also summarized the meeting for her.

There was only one thing to discuss at this meeting. The production team had decided to go abroad to attend a film festival that Si Jingchuan had mentioned before, Bai Ai Award ceremony.

Three days later, the crew set off together.

However, The Billion Stars had just aired this year, so it couldn’t be counted as a participating work of the film festival. They were invited as guests. Even so, it was a rare opportunity, especially for newcomers like Su Ji and Xu Ni.

The Bai Ai Award was given out once every five years, and it was a world-class award. There were very few people who could attend with their shortlisted works, and most of them attended as guests.

...

Rather than calling it an award ceremony, it was more like a networking event for the people in the film and television industry around the world. There was not much competition.

Then, Si Jingchuan sent two more messages.

[ “You’ll be working with two of the actresses who will be participating in this event.” ]

Su Ji asked who they were.

[ “Nan Miaomiao and Jiang Cuiqin.” ]
