Yu Han whispered into Bai Chao’s ear, “Sister Meng was found by my Little Uncle. If Sister Meng finds out, my Little Uncle will know too. And my Little Uncle will definitely guess that I went to participate in some competition because I don’t have money. Then, he will transfer money to me.”
When Bai Chao heard this, he was extremely envious. He also wanted to have an uncle who could transfer money to him at any time. However, although he was envious, he could more or less understand Yu Han’s thoughts. No matter how much her Little Uncle doted on her, she was still living under someone else’s roof, so it was not appropriate for her to casually ask someone for money.
Hence, Bai Chao patted Yu Han’s shoulder in understanding. “Alright, since you’ve been working diligently since you joined the production team, I’ll secretly open a back door for you.”
Seeing that the director had been successfully fooled by her, Yu Han felt a little embarrassed. Hence, she suggested kindly, “Why don’t you take this opportunity to go back and look for your wife? After all, you are husband and wife. If there’s anything, just say it out. It’s not a good idea to continue this stalemate.”
Bai Chao was indeed a little tempted. He frowned and pondered for a while. In the end, he looked up and saw Yu Han’s gossipy eyes. How could he not understand what was going on? He immediately glared at her. “You’re just a child. Why are you so worried? Go busy yourself with your competition.”
After saying that, he patted his butt and was about to leave. As he walked, he suddenly turned around and asked, “By the way, what competition did you just say?” He thought to himself that if it was a gaming competition or something, he could also take some time to support her. Otherwise, she would have been shortlisted for the finals and not have anyone to support her. How cold would that be?
Yu Han blinked her big innocent eyes. “It’s a science knowledge competition.” She wasn’t lying. To a certain extent, the hacker competition was a science knowledge competition.
“Oh,” Bai Chao replied coldly. “Good luck then.” Then, he turned his head and left. Sorry, he was not worthy of supporting such a high-end competition.
After He Meng returned from the call, she looked at Yu Han suspiciously. “What were you and the director talking about just now? Look at how enthusiastic you two are. I’m afraid you’re planning something.”
Yu Han cried out in grievance. “How is that possible? What good plans could Old Bai and I have? It’s about the script. The two of us had some disagreements, so we gathered to discuss it.”
As a manager, He Meng had to interfere in matters related to the script. Hence, she asked, “Which part of it has a problem?”
Yu Han spread her hands helplessly. “Aiyo, it’s useless to doubt him. You know that Old Bai is a stubborn person. He won’t change the script easily, so I couldn’t convince him.”
Since Yu Han couldn’t convince Old Bai, He Meng didn’t bother to think about it. Anyway, she had read the original script. From her perspective, she didn’t find any major problems with this script for the time being, so she let this matter slide.
There were still two scenes left for Yu Han. After filming, she was about to pack her things and go back when she saw Bai Chao gather everyone and say, “I have something urgent to do and need to leave the production team for a day, so I’ll adjust the filming schedule for tomorrow.”
It was impossible for the production team to suddenly stop work for a day. After all, delaying for another day was equivalent to burning another day’s worth of money. Therefore, Bai Chao asked the assistant director to take over and help him film some empty scenes or less important scenes first.
Because of this arrangement, Yu Han, who was the main character, would automatically be free tomorrow.
Although He Meng was a little puzzled by Bai Chao’s sudden suspension of work for a day, she saw that after Bai Chao gave the notice, he hurriedly packed his things and prepared to take a taxi back to the city. He looked really anxious, so it did not seem fake.
She could only retract her doubts and look at Yu Han.
When Yu Han saw the look in her eyes, she was quick-witted. Before she could speak, she shouted happily, “Oh my god, I can finally rest for a day. Don’t wake me up tomorrow. I have to sleep for a whole day.”
Initially, He Meng thought that since she had a rare day off, she should arrange something for her to do. However, when she saw how happy Yu Han was, she thought about how she had indeed been working hard every day since she joined the production team. She had even rushed out to shoot a game advertisement midway. It could be said that she had not rested for a month.
Hence, He Meng’s heart softened and she gave up on this idea. She decided to let Yu Han off for now.
