Mr Fu, I Really Love You-Chapter 1402 - The Uncrowned Ruler

Chapter 1402: The Uncrowned Ruler

One of them was the movie industry’s box office guarantee, while the other was a top-notch famous singer.

Because the two of them didn’t get along, all broadcasting stations had never mistakenly invited the two of them at the year-end party or award shows. They were afraid that they would bump into each other!

Although they didn’t say it, everyone had secretly guessed the reason they didn’t get along must have had something to do with Jiang Mingzhu’s death. After all, one was Jiang Mingzhu’s best friend, while the other was her boyfriend.

Shi Hanchu got into his van without a word. His attitude was apparent.

…

When Du Lingyang came to visit, he even brought a reporter over, afraid that no one would know about his act.

Su Manman thought that she had already mastered the art of controlling her emotion, but when she saw her enemy, her eyes automatically reddened. As a result, when Du Lingyang distributed snacks and coffee to everyone, Su Manman didn’t take it. She lowered her head and looked at the script. Without even raising her head, she said to Du Lingyang’s assistant, “Don’t give it to me. I’m not interested. Take it away…”

Du Lingyang’s assistant was stunned. This was the first time he had seen someone like Su Manman. Even if she wasn’t interested, she should take it first and thank him!

Coincidentally, Meng Yuqiao was talking to Du Lingyang about the supporting actress, Su Manman, who was part of the cast. When she turned around, she saw that the subject of their discussion had rejected the coffee and snacks offered by Du Lingyang’s assistant.

“Look, how arrogant she is…” Meng Yuqiao was not convinced.

“Since she’s managed to be in the production team, she must have some capability behind this. Don’t worry, I’ll get someone to check on her later, and I’ll help you vent your anger.” Du Lingyang said this because he had already determined that Su Manman must be just a canary kept by some wealthy businessman. When the television series was released, he might help increase the popularity of this drama.

When Du Lingyang’s assistant came back, he also told Du Lingyang how heartless Su Manman was. Without even waiting for him to finish his sentence, she rejected him without giving him any face.

Du Lingyang’s heart started thumping. This arrogance… could it be that she was a rich family’s missy? He should check in private… He didn’t want to create trouble for Meng Yuqiao.

Su Manman couldn’t smile at Du Lingyang, but she wasn’t in a hurry for her revenge.

There was no hurry. Didn’t Du Lingyang care about reputation and status the most? Then, Su Manman would strip him off of what he cared about bit by bit.

That afternoon, Du Lingyang stayed to watch Su Manman and Gu Chengfeng’s scenes. Only then did he realize why Meng Yuqiao was feeling uneasy.

Su Manman’s appearance was clearly stunning, but her beauty didn’t overshadow her superb acting skills in the camera at all. Every frown and smile of hers… Her every action exuded the aura of an uncrowned ruler, Feng Yi, and her free and unrestrained personality.

Du Lingyang thought about how Su Manman didn’t give him face this afternoon and guessed that it might be a part of her performance.

…

Ever since Su Manman found out that Shi Hanchu’s filming production would be in the same location as hers for more than a week, she started to get excited.

Shi Hanchu’s assistant, Little Song, had been with Shi Hanchu for many years. Su Manman knew him very well. As long as she got to know him well, he would be easy to talk to. She didn’t expect to make friends with the movie king Shi Hanchu right now. She only wanted to be good to Shi Hanchu, just like how well Shi Hanchu had treated her back then…

Su Manman did as she said. Little Song saw that a beauty like Su Manman didn’t put on airs at all, saying she was Shi Hanchu’s fan and acted very humbly… She hoped that Little Song could help pass Shi Hanchu a drink. Seeing that the drinks Su Manman brought were all things Shi Hanchu liked, Little Song agreed.

Su Manman sent drinks and snacks to Shi Hanchu every day, and as usual, Little Song didn’t tell Shi Hanchu.

However, Shi Hanchu was very observant. For the past few days, Little Song had sent him drinks and snacks that he liked. Today, the snack was even more specific. It was osmanthus cakes from a certain place that he likes.

Even Little Song, who had been by his side for many years, didn’t know that he liked this osmanthus cake…

Shi Hanchu’s expression froze slightly, then he shook his head and laughed in a self-mocking tone. She was already dead, so how could it be her?

Shi Hanchu picked up the osmanthus cake that was wrapped in a piece of red paper. His fingertips brushed against the square-shaped red paper as he thought of that person.

The makeup artist knocked on the door and came in. She smiled and greeted Shi Hanchu. “Mr. Shi…”

Shi Hanchu collected his emotions and nodded. He put down the osmanthus cake in his hand and said in his deep voice, “Thanks for the hard work.”

The makeup artist used to be Jiang Mingzhu’s makeup artist, and she had worked with Shi Hanchu before. She was familiar with Shi Hanchu, so when she was doing her makeup, she started chatting with Shi Hanchu about Su Manman…

“I’ve never seen such a pretty girl with such superb acting skills. I’ve seen only two actors who can act in a second. One is you, Mr. Shi, and the other is Sister Mingzhu. Now, there’s this young lady called Su Manman. I think… this young lady’s future is limitless! Especially because she’s still young, and she already has the demeanor of Sister Mingzhu back then.”

The makeup artist shook off the powder and said.

Shi Hanchu’s hand on the armrest of his chair tightened before he let go again. He said, “You went to take a look?”

“That’s right, I was originally interested in the drama…” The makeup artist smiled and continued, “Just now, I heard from our production team’s assistant director that he could get that young lady to come over and act in our series. She’s really too pretty and her acting is so good. I reckon that when our director meets the director of the film crew of ‘The Olden Age,’ that young lady might even come to join our production.”

Shi Hanchu pursed his thin lips and thought of the girl wearing a veil that day. Those eyes… gave him a familiar feeling.

Su Manman’s tone was really… like a good friend he hadn’t seen for many years.

Shi Hanchu took the script and lowered his gaze, but he didn’t look into it at all. The person he had deliberately suppressed in his heart, who he didn’t want to recall, started to appear in his mind again.

After a long while, the makeup artist left after finishing her makeup. Shi Hanchu pinched his forehead, picked up his costume, and put it on before heading to the filming location.

But Shi Hanchu didn’t expect that Su Manman was also there today…

The moment he entered the scene, he saw the director talking to Su Manman. He was holding a script in his hand, while Su Manman was frowning, looking very serious.

Seeing this, Little Song hurriedly went up to Shi Hanchu and said, “Brother Hanchu, Brother Hanchu! I just found out… that Manman is an artist under Brother Jie. I didn’t expect her to be your junior! I realized because the director called Brother Jie to ask about her just now. Wow, Brother Jie was so tight-lipped that he didn’t even tell me!”
