‘Yang Li!’

If there were ghosts in this world, Ye Xin would have thought that Yang Li’s ghost had possessed Zhuang Ning. She could not help but follow Zhuang Ning and the others.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

However, at this moment, Cheng Che suddenly walked out of a shed by the side. “Sister-in-law? Why are you here?”

Ye Xin was pulled back to her senses immediately. She looked in the direction that Zhuang Ning left before she reluctantly turned back to look at Cheng Che and said, “I… I came to visit the set.”

A confused expression appeared on Cheng Che’s face upon hearing these words. Then, he said, “Uh… Then, sister-in-law, do you want to have a look around?”

Ye Xin replied absentmindedly, “Yes. Do you mind if I walk around? What movie are you shooting?”

Cheng Che quickly said, “It’s a drama set in the Republic of China. It’s based on a popular web novel. We’re almost finished with the shooting actually.”

Ye Xin looked to the side as she said, “The female lead is very beautiful. I don’t think I’ve seen her before. What other works has she acted in?”

Cheng Che said, “Oh, you mean Zhuang Ning? She’s a newcomer. She hasn’t acted in anything prior to this. However, she’s very talented. Director Pan is filled with praise for her.”

‘She’s the female lead even though she’s never acted before?’

Ye Xin thought it was likely that Zhuang Ning had a backer in the industry. Otherwise, how could Zhuang Ning have landed a lead role when she had prior experience? Then, she asked, “Are you familiar with her?”

Cheng Che replied, confused, “I’ve only seen her on set…”

Ye Xin coughed lightly before she said, “I’m talking about your personal relationship with her…”

Cheng Che nodded. “Oh, we have a good relationship. Zhuang Ning’s personality is good, and she’s very easy to get along with. In fact, she gets along with everyone.”

Ye Xin felt a little helpless hearing Cheng Che’s reply. Then, she said directly, “What I mean is that she’s given the lead role even though she’s a newcomer. Does she have a connection with you? Did you pull strings for her? Don’t worry, I won’t tell Grandma. I know your girlfriend is away now, and it’s not a bad idea to explore new options. It’s also not a bad idea to use this method to create hype. However, I think this woman isn’t simple. It’s best if you don’t get entangled with her.”

Upon hearing Ye Xin’s words, Cheng Che was taken aback. When he regained his senses, flames of fury rose in his heart. He said indignantly, “What nonsense are you spouting? Your words are too much!”

Ye Xin had never seen Cheng Che angry before, whether it was when she was Ye Xin or pretending to be Song Ning. He had always been calm and reserved outside but lively at home. His temper was also very good, and there was nothing to complain about at all. She instinctively took a step back and looked at him in shock, not knowing what she had said that was so wrong.

At this moment, Cheng Chen turned and happened to see Zhuang Ning and Peng Peng walking over.

Zhuang Ning smiled and called out, “Cheng Che, let’s go. Everyone’s waiting for you. We’re all going to hang out this afternoon and have dinner together tonight. Come with us!”

When Zhuang Ning met Ye Xin’s gaze, she smiled at Ye Xin.

Meanwhile, Cheng Che walked away without looking back at Ye Xin.

Zhuang Ning turned to look at Ye Xin again and smiled.

Upon seeing this, Ye Xin felt chills running up her spines. She stood by the shed, frozen for a long time.

After a while, Ye Xin reminded herself that she was Song Ning now to calm down.?At this time, it was very quiet; an indication that everyone had left. She seized the chance and walked into the shed to have a look. The things in the shed had not been tidied up yet. She felt slightly uncomfortable as she looked at the familiar props. After a moment, she saw a picture of Mu Chen on the notice board.

The picture seemed like it was taken during a photoshoot. He sat on a rattan chair, reading a book. His side profile was incredibly handsome. A pair of fair and slender arms were wrapped around his shoulders. However, only the arms could be seen, not the face.

Ye Xin’s eyes widened in shock. She was sure that pair of arms did not belong to her.

‘Mu Chen has a woman outside?’
