Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

As soon as Director Xiao came out of the building, the crowds moved altogether to glance at him. When they saw it was a man and he was with four other burly men, they no longer looked at him and waited for somebody to come in or out of the entrance.

The paparazzis, however, felt that something was wrong with Director Xiao's tense expression. What's even more mystifying was that there were men flanking his directions as if they were guarding him. These men were definitely bodyguards hired by Director Xiao!

But why did he hire them and for whom?

When these thoughts came around their minds, the paparazzis who were used to seeing celebrities being guarded by these types of burly men, had their radars going haywire.

As soon as they saw Director Xiao rushing to the parking lot, they tugged the cameras hanging around their necks and came hurrying behind him.

Director Xiao was in such a rush that he did not take notice of the paparazzis following him. However, the bodyguards on each side noticed this and raised their vigilance to the highest degree. Two of them decided to stop and stop the paparazzis from going forward while the other two still followed Director Xiao.

p Finally, Director Xiao reached the parking lot and saw the familiar nanny van that Ran Xueyi used. When he reached the car, he saw Adelle stepping out of it and he quickly greeted her.

Adelle smiled back at him. "Good morning, Director Xiao."

Ran Xueyi was glad that there really was no one aside from Director Xiao and the bodyguards. She also stepped down and said, "Let's quickly go inside."

...

"Is Ran Xueyi really coming back today?" Inside the set, one production crew couldn't contain his excitement.

The other crew nodded. "I personally heard Director Xiao say that Ran Xueyi will return to film today. I even saw him rushing outside. She must be outside now!"

"That's great! We can finally finish wrapping up quickly!"

One thing that the production crew liked about working with Ran Xueyi was that they don't need to waste a lot of their time repeating the same scene over and over again. Ran Xueyi finished all her scenes in one take and if not for her co-stars or extras' mistake, they might have finished quicker!

But they stopped complaining already when they compared it to how other celebrities filmed their scenes. They are already grateful enough that they could finish a scene with Ran Xueyi faster than staying in the set filming one scene for the entire day.

"This time, we should make sure to protect her lest another Steffanie comes out to ruin our film's success!"

The production crew ultimately agreed on this idea.

...

After safely entering the filming set without being followed and pestered by the paparazzis, Ran Xueyi and her group finally started to work on the scenes she left behind unfinished.

The production crew was even more sensible to not ask any questions to her and avoided the topic or any mentions of Steffanie and Shi Lian; they didn't want to ruin her mood or the film's mood.

Minutes after Ran Xueyi was warmly welcomed back to the set by everyone, she told Director Xiao to go over her scenes.

Director Xiao, "Warm up first while the props crew will arrange the set for your scene."

Ran Xueyi did not refuse and went to sit on one side with Adelle next to her, reading her schedule.

"After filming the rest of your scenes, there will be a conference arranged by Senior Wu for you to answer the questions of your fans."

"After the conference, there will be a magazine photoshoot for Chica Magazine. Next, you will have a contract signing for Chantel as their new brand spokesperson."

"On Sunday, a variety show you suggested to appear in...."

Ran Xueyi listened to Adelle for a while and said, "You handle it. I'll just follow you."

Soon, the props crew finally finished the preparation needed for the next scene. Ran Xueyi was called over by Director Xiao and discussed the scenes with her before sending her away to stand in her position.

Director Xiao: "3, 2, 1... Action!"

After finishing up all her scenes for the day, Ran Xueyi's energy was quickly drained. She relaxed a bit too much these past several days with Song Yu Han and Xiao Zhanzhan, that she no longer felt acting as enjoyable as playing with her husband and son.

The good thing about filming was that she was still reminded of her dreams of achieving the highest award achieved by anyone; the Triple Crown Award.

It was a prestigious award presented only after a decade. Triple Crown Award have the harshest and most difficult requirements for an actor and actress to complete. One of the requirements was that one must be an all-rounder in the acting industry. Not many actors and actresses could easily achieve this since most would stick with one or two genres according to the limits of their acting skills.

One actress or actor who usually played in romantic dramas and films couldn't possibly adjust to acting in comedy or action films. The transition and adjustments needed for an actor to achieve in acting in a different genre was higher than one would think.

This was the reason why Ran Xueyi didn't throw out any scripts handed to her. She would carefully pick out what was more challenging than the other, and more reasonable and note-worthy.

And another requirement was that one must be nominated or win an award internationally. Only a number of actors and actresses were nominated. As for winning an award... Well, a few have done it a few years ago.

However, Ran Xueyi already achieved that just recently. This won her a spot to win the Triple Crown Award.

Around 6pm, Ran Xueyi finished all her scenes that day. Everyone in the production crew was so excited and elated because they could go home early for the first time.

Shen Yi, as the male lead of the TV drama, came forward and said, "It seems that my whole existence has become useless now that you're here."

"Brother Shen shouldn't say that. I'm grateful that you're here when I wasn't." Ran Xueyi replied. She remembered what Adelle told her a few days ago. Shen Yi was the only one who confront Steffanie about the video. She wondered why he stepped in.

But seeing him up close, Ran Xueyi found out that Shen Yi was more pleasant to play a role with than other actors. At least, he wasn't prejudiced and selfish.

Seeing her looking at him for a long time, Shen Yi felt slightly embarrassed. Scratching his head, he suddenly thought of what happened several days ago.

"What happened before... I'm really sorry. I should have told you about Steffanie's behavior and tendency to use violence." Besides that, there was also the fact that he tried to rope Ran Xueyi into his side because his sponsor told him to. Thinking of his actions during that party, Shen Yi was extremely ashamed of himself. "Anyway, it's good that you safely got out of that mess."

"Thank you Brother Shen for your words. There's no need to say sorry. You didn't do anything wrong." Ran Xueyi smiled at him.

Shen Yi was mesmerized by her smile and heard his heart skip a beat.

Suddenly, he couldn't stop his mouth from saying, "That man at the part last time... Is he really just your assistant?"
