The principal was already listening nearby with a beaming smile.

Li Mingyu’s films are known for boosting their female leads; it’s said when he promotes, he never misses.

With Ye Xiao’s successful capture of this heavyweight role, it was almost certain that she would make her mark on this path.

When that time came,

the school would have yet another point to promote.

“Exactly, exactly. Ye Xiao, Director Li places great value on you,” said the principal with a chuckle, “After production starts, you don’t need to worry about your schoolwork here. I’ve already spoken to the teachers of various subjects, and they are all happy for you. Rest assured, just participate in the exams at the end, and submit a graduation thesis, and it won’t affect your graduation.”

After filming this movie, Ye Xiao would be close to graduating, and wouldn’t be staying at school for much longer.

For a student about to show such promise, the school was happy to open the door of convenience a bit.

“Director Li, will filming start next week?” Ye Xiao hesitated for a moment before asking.

Li Mingyu replied, “Pretty much. The crew is already finalized, and the funding is ample. After some adjustments to the props, we can begin next week. Do you have any issues here?”

The principal instantly looked over with a hint of nervousness.

My dear girl, this is such a great opportunity, don’t create any problems.

“It’s not a big issue,” Ye Xiao sighed, “I just really love the school. The thought of soon having to say goodbye to the days of attending school every day makes me very sad.”

The principal quickly said, “No, no, don’t be sad! Ye, you go ahead and film. If you have time in the middle, you can come back to school.”

“That works,” Ye Xiao responded with a reluctant appearance.

She truly was somewhat reluctant to leave the campus atmosphere.

The principal, afraid Ye Xiao would stir up trouble, hurriedly pushed the contract in front of her: “Sign the contract quickly.”

Ye Xiao didn’t say anything more and directly signed her name.

Only then did the principal breathe a long sigh of relief, asking Ye Xiao to return to class.

Afterward, the principal, with a smile, said, “Mingyu, I’ve entrusted another child to you! In the future, bring out another Best Actress for me.”

Li Mingyu answered with a smile, “Don’t worry. With Ye Xiao’s talent, it shouldn’t be a problem.”

At that, the principal nodded in satisfaction.

They were already a century-old prestigious school.

But who would reject the opportunity to foster even more talented individuals?

With the ensemble set to begin next week, Ye Xiao felt her time suddenly becoming urgent.

Before joining the crew, she must resolve the matters involving Ye Bingtong and Gu Cheng.

Ye Xiao glanced at Ye Bingtong and, seeing her brooding demeanor, felt reassured.

Given Ye Bingtong’s current state, it seemed she wouldn’t be able to hold out for very long.

Once she took action, Ye Xiao could resolve the matter in one fell swoop and join the crew with peace of mind.

She could find time along the way to also resolve the issues with Ye Zhaoyu.

Ye Xiao couldn’t help but reflect.

She truly was a busy little top.

As Ye Xiao anticipated, Ye Bingtong indeed couldn’t hold out for very long.

On this evening,

she returned to the rental room.

Pei Yue had not yet come back.

Ye Bingtong, alone, looked at the small and dingy room, a trace of despair flashing in her eyes.

She wasn’t incapable of living a hard life.

But she couldn’t endure a hard life without end in sight.

Before experiencing the everyday concerns for food and living expenses, she thought Pei Yue was perfect in every way.

He represented a fresh new world that she was eager to explore.

But now,

she truly saw this new world and had even entered it.

Was it good?

Not at all!

Night and day, she toiled for money. The earnings of a month were not even enough for a single meal she used to have.

She was once the precious daughter of a distinguished family, a piano prodigy, a future star.

But now,

she was trapped in a tiny rental room, unable to find a way out.

Days like these, although it hadn’t been many, but she truly, already couldn’t endure any longer.

Squeak.

The sound of the door being opened came through.

Pei Yue walked in with two portions of takeout.

His face was adorned with joy.

“Bingtong, I timed it perfectly today and got the discounted takeout for 12 yuan per portion. Two meat dishes and one vegetable, the choices look pretty good.”

Pei Yue opened the takeout.

Ye Bingtong looked at the greasy meat and suddenly started to retch.

She used to eat the most exquisite foods, these things, she wouldn’t even spare a second glance.

But now. These had become what Pei Yue described as “choices look pretty good.”

Ye Bingtong’s eyes instantly reddened.

She didn’t understand.

How she had sunk to this level.

The life of luxury and fine dining seemed like only yesterday, but now, was she to be pleased with the twelve yuan takeout?

Pei Yue was originally smiling but seeing Ye Bingtong’s expression, his look subtly changed.

He couldn’t help but ask, “Bingtong, did you face some grievances today? Was it that Ye Xiao again? Just wait, I will…”

“It’s nothing.” Ye Bingtong wiped her tears and stopped Pei Yue from continuing.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to take revenge on Ye Xiao.

It’s just that Pei Yue had said this far too many times.

He kept making fierce threats, time and again.

But what was the outcome?

What could he possibly do to Ye Xiao?

A laborer who could barely maintain a living and the daughter of the Ye Family! It was more than a mountain between them, it was millions of mountains!

“What is it then?” Pei Yue became somewhat perplexed and suddenly, remembering something, he couldn’t help but say with some guilt, “Is it because of what happened last night? I’m sorry, it was my lack of control over my emotions yesterday. I suddenly remembered some past events, so the illness flared up. I… I didn’t hurt you, did I?”

Pei Yue was apologizing, but there was no true sincerity in it.

When she was with him, Ye Bingtong had said that when it came to his manic episodes, she only felt heartache.

She would use boundless love and devotion to help him completely escape from those pains.

So.

Even if he lost control a bit last night, Ye Bingtong should be understanding.

Ye Bingtong looked up at Pei Yue and said softly, “It’s fine, I just suddenly lost my appetite.”

She had already begun to regret.

Had already started to think about leaving Pei Yue.

But not now.

She needed to first find a backup plan for herself.

Then, she could leave Pei Yue.

Otherwise. If things didn’t work out with Gu Cheng, Pei Yue was still her only lifesaver for the moment.

“Okay. Then I’ll eat it myself.” Pei Yue didn’t ask further and agreed immediately.

Lately, he had been in a rather good mood.

Li Jingzhou had his own troubles to deal with and had no time to continue targeting him.

He had returned to working at the car wash, and he had a stable income again. But washing cars was still a physically demanding job, and Pei Yue just thought one portion of food was not enough.

Ye Bingtong curled up on the bed, silently watching Pei Yue wolfing down the food, feeling quite conflicted for a moment.

Was this the real Pei Yue, without any filters?

She couldn’t help but think of Gu Cheng.

If it were Gu Cheng.

The two of them would be in a high-end restaurant, elegantly savoring their meals.

And not like this… with such a vulgar manner.

Ye Bingtong pursed her lips, becoming even more resolved about her plan.

She was convinced.

Gu Cheng still had feelings for her.

As long as she could see Gu Cheng, she was certain she could win him back.
