Shi Nian curiously asked, “Why do I get the feeling you don’t want Shi Xiu to act in the movie?”
Yun Nan shook her head and answered, “Mika is the one in charge of the casting, and my team and I trust his judgment. We all hope we can find the right actors for our characters. He must have his reasons if he thinks Shi Xiu is suitable. I’m just worried that if Shi Xiu gets her heart set on this matter and the family objects, it’ll cause a lot of strife for everyone.”
Shi Nian nodded and said, “Then leave Shi Xiu be and let her make her own decisions. Grandpa and my parents are open-minded; they won’t interfere with her decisions. They’ll be more at ease since she’ll be working beside you.” Shi Nian changed the topic and inquired, “When will you start filming?”
“We’ll begin filming when Fang Xi returns. Her mother hasn’t been well, so Fang Xi went back to her hometown to look after her,” Yun Nan told him.

“Canada,” she replied.
Shi Nian was surprised and asked, “Her family lives overseas?”
“Yeah, her whole family is overseas. Her parents have separated, and both of them have their own family. She studied in China all by her lonesome; she is very independent domestically and financially,” Yun Nan informed.
“I see.” Shi Nian thought, ‘It’s no wonder Fang in Xi and Yun Nan are so close. There quite alike in some aspects; I suppose they’re sympathetic to each other.’
Yun Nan sighed and remarked, “Fang Xi excels everything she does, except when it comes to her relationship. She got involved with a scumbag who hurt her deeply. I think it’s good for her to go on a trip overseas; although she seems fine on the surface, I know she’s still upset.”
“Shouldn’t you be glad that they broke up since he’s a scumbag and all?” Shi Nian cautiously spoke up. Having Yun Nan talk to him so casually about the people close to her was and heartwarming to Shi Nian. Does this mean Yun Nan saw him as someone she could trust and be close to? Why else would she talk to him about such a topic?
He had never interacted with anyone like this before. He was afraid that his clumsy words would ruin the atmosphere, so all of his senses were on alert trying to deal with this situation. He’d never been so focused, not even when facing the most difficult merger and acquisition cases.
He secretly rejoiced when his words got Yun Nan’s agreement. She nodded vigorously and said, “You’re absolutely right. Breaking up with a scumbag is definitely something worth celebrating. However, Fang Xi won’t be able to bounce back from her failed relationship for a while. It’ll take some time.”
Shi Nian stared at her expression and smiled. “What about you? Have you ever been in love? The deep and unforgettable kind?”
Yun Nan was full from the food. She lazily stretched and shook her head. “I’m one of the lucky ones. I’ve never been in a relationship because I don’t have the time for it.” She started to clear the table, and Shi Nian helped her carry the cutlery to the kitchen and put them in the dishwasher.
“Why not?” Shi Nian asked curiously.
“Because I’m busy working part-time and earning my living expenses,” Yun
Nan said lightly, as if it was logical for a schoolgirl to shoulder such burdens.

“Then how did you write those romance s?” Shi Nian asked as she wiped the stove clean. He’d deliberately chosen the easier topic.
As she washed her hands, Yun Nan smiled and answered, “By paying attention to the world around me, of course
“Then, do you no longer believe in love after writing so many love stories?” Shi Nian mused aloud.
Yun Nan tilted her head in thought and stated, “I guess so? At the very least, I’m quite level-headed. However, Fang Xi said that’s because I haven’t met the right person—someone who can make my heart pound—and that I’ll believe in love once I do.”
Shi Nian felt disgruntled when he heard that. Unaware, Yun Nan continued, “1 can’t think of any reason why I might need a boyfriend in my life. I can earn my own money, and I do a pretty good job taking care of myself. I’m doing fine on my own. I can work overtime whenever I want, and I can go on business trips whenever I want without having to report to anyone.”
“Fang Xi said she needed love, that she’ll be fine if that guy gave her his love. Turns out he was a scumbag, and she got nothing but a heart full of hurt. It’s really not worth it. I don’t want someone who can hurt me like that, so I don’t need a boyfriend!” Yun Nan firmly concluded.
Shi Nian spoke through gritted teeth, “You need me!”
Yun Nan bobbed her head and smiled. “That’s right.. I need a collaborator like you, not a boyfriend!”
