When she arrived home, Li Yuhuan opened her email and looked at the script Shen Ang had sent her. She had to admit that Shen Ang had a good eye for scripts. This script was modified from a romance web novel called “Addicted To Desire”.

The story was about a female protagonist who got herself entangled in a series of lust and love with three men.

She remembered when this novel was first published on the website, it had caused many controversies because of the three male protagonists.

Instead of the two-hour movie that Li Yuhuan was skilled at, Shen Ang gave her a 20-episode TV drama script.’Shen Ang wanted to make the first erotic TV drama in the country? This is a very ambitious project.’

…

Shen Ang appeared in front of Li Yuhuan again three days later. He had been waiting for her answer for quite some time, and it was obvious that he had run out of patience, “Yuhuan, you are the only one who can bring out the original flavor of this script. You can reject me, but please do not reject this drama,”

“President Shen, you think too highly of yourself,” Li Yuhuan said before she smiled, “Didn’t the people in the company receive my email? I’ve decided to work on the project,” She would go where her job led her.

Moreover… Shen Ang’s presence will not stop her from doing the script she liked.

A relieved smile was about to appear on Shen Ang’s face when Li Yuhuan added, “President Shen, I hope that during the duration of our work, you can keep your distance from me. After all, I don’t want my husband to misunderstand,”

This was the first time Shen Ang heard Li Yuhuan mention her husband. The thought made him feel very uncomfortable. He knew Li Yuhuan was married to the Lei family’s youngest son, Xiang City’s military general, Lei Hanping. If it were any other ‘ordinary’ person, he would have been okay, but it just had to be Lei Hanping. It just had to be a military marriage!

When Song Ran found out that Li Yuhuan accepted to work with Shen Ang, she was in disbelief, “Yuhuan, are you crazy? Shen Ang treated you like dirt, yet you still agreed to work with him. Aren’t you afraid that he might….”

Li Yuhuan knew what Song Ran was worried about, “He wouldn’t dare, for three reasons. One, I’m the Lei family’s daughter-in-law now. Two, Shen Ang’s ex-wife, Bai Lin, is the daughter of Xiang City’s mayor. And three, Shen Ang has a company in Xiang City. He can’t afford to offend both the Lei and Bai families at the same time. It would end his career,”

Even so, Song Ran was still worried, “Yuhuan, I’m worried that if Shen Ang tells Lei Hanping about what happened in New York four years ago…”

Li Yuhuan stopped arranging the fresh flowers she had purchased.”The truth can’t be hidden forever. If Fourth Brother finds out and can’t accept the imperfect me, it’s fine. Men aren’t everything in my life. I don’t have to care too much about what they think,” She said, her tone completely calm. Seemingly she had made peace with herself,

Song Ran admired Li Yuhuan’s carefreeness the most. She would not let anyone affect her life. Four years ago, her boyfriend, Shen Ang, who was about to get married, couldn’t accept what happened to Li Yuhuan and had left without even saying goodbye, sending Li Yuhuan into deeper despair. At that time, Song Ran thought that Li Yuhuan might be depressed after what happened, but against everyone’s expectations, she had overcome it and lived a more beautiful life than anyone else.

…

After Li Yuhuan agreed to work with Angfan Films, she signed a one-year temporary contract. She was a free and easy-going person, and didn’t like to be bound. If they managed to work well together, she would renew the contract. If it didn’t go well, she was free not to renew the contract and leave.

Within a month, Li Yuhuan recruited some staff and set up her own shooting team.

The next step was to finalize the actors and actresses. Shen Ang said he was going to Rongyu Management, Xiang City’s largest artist agency, to pick a few top actors. When they arrived at the location, Li Yuhuan remembered that the head of this management company was Lei Hanping’s good friend, Pei Rongyu.

It was a coincidence that Li Yuhuan met Pei Rongyu the first time she came to Rongyu Management.

Shen Ang might not know about the relationship between Pei Rongyu and Lei Hanping. After all, one was a big boss in the film and television industry, while the other was a general in the military. It was easy to overlook the connection if people didn’t know them well.

When they went to pick the actors, Shen Ang gave Li Yuhuan all the power he could think of, which she was grateful for.

Li Yuhuan watched through some of the actors’ portfolios and auditions, considering and reconsidering her choices in her head.

Beside her, Shen Ang watched Li Yuhuan with even more obvious affection. At the same time, Li Yuhuan and Pei Rongyu’s thought-provoking gazes met. She knew what he was probably thinking, but she did not explain. The more she explained, the worse it would sound.

After deciding on the supporting roles, the female lead and the three male leads were still left undecided. Li Yuhuan went home to continue looking through the photos and videos of the auditions on her work phone while she ate.

It was at that moment when her other phone on the table vibrated. She picked it up and saw the notification on the screen. Her calmed heart began to beat faster for the first time in several months.
