Work resumed as per normal the following day.

As Zheng Lunlun had returned, the crew had to hasten the filming process to complete the scenes that he was involved in. As such, it was a hectic and tiring day.

The crew was only able to take a break at 6 p.m. By then, they were done filming at the current location and was ready to move on to the next to resume filming.

The next shooting location was a mountain village. The main scene which was to be filmed there revolved around the female lead teaching at the village.

After being separated for many years, the male lead had finally found the female lead, who was living in seclusion at the mountain village. They lived together at the village for a period of time, until the male lead passed away from an illness.

However, that was the original storyline. After taking market needs and possible reactions of viewers into consideration, the director was worried Zheng Lunlun’s passing in the drama would cause outrage among his fans and cause them to boycott the drama as a result.

Therefore, the ending of the drama was tweaked. Instead of the male lead passing away from the illness, the director decided on an open ending instead, with the couple leaving the village together in search of a cure.

The mountain village scene was the ending scene of the drama. When filming at that location was done, it would be a wrap for the entire drama.

After Zheng Lunlun changed out of his costume, he started whining, saying he was dead tired and bugged Ning Ran to have a drink with him.

However, Ning Ran did not feel like drinking as she was bogged down lately. She just wanted to rest at home and prepare for the next filming session.

Zheng Lunlun was not buying it though. He had wanted to have a meal with Ning Ran since yesterday but had been chased away by his uncle. Without his uncle around today, he was determined to have a drink with her, to celebrate his healthy return.

Zheng Lunlun had always been very clingy and persistent. Once he had his sights set on Ning Ran, it was almost impossible for her to get away with it.

As such, Ning Ran agreed to have dinner with him, but rejected drinks or games. The woman was really exhausted. All she wanted was to get home early and lie on the bed while studying her script.

Just as the two of them exited the film set, they spotted a Rolls-Royce with the car plate number ‘8888’ parked outside.

“Uncle? Why is he here again? He has even dispatched his official sedan! Is he planning to snatch you away again?” Zheng Lunlun let out a cry.

Ning Ran herself was also surprised. Didnt we just meet for dinner yesterday? Does he want to meet again today?

Besides, they had parted on bad terms last evening. Did he want to continue from where they left off yesterday and escalate the argument even further?
