Chapter 644: Chapter 339: Half a Year Chapter 644: Chapter 339: Half a Year At the dinner table, Xu Qingyan felt the atmosphere was a bit odd and looked up at her.

“What’s wrong?”
Pei Muchan immediately withdrew her gaze, and shook her head like a rattle drum.

“Nothing…

Nothing at all.”
Weirdly, was Pei Muchan at home all day today?

Could it be that she was not fed enough?

No way, that shouldn’t be.

That would really be troublesome.

Tonight, it looks like I’ll have to put in some serious effort, getting ready for a tough battle.

After dinner, the two with their own thoughts went for a habitual walk.

Both were thinking about how to start the conversation, but they never found the chance until they got in the car.

The light inside the car was dim, and almost simultaneously, they spoke.

“Tonight…

(Today)…”
Pei Muchan stopped, “Can I speak first?”
“Sure.” Xu Qingyan nodded, he was indeed curious about what Pei Muchan would say.

Pei Muchan sincerely said, “Let’s rest early tonight?”
What she meant by rest was literally to rest, the kind that involves washing up and going to sleep.

However, to Xu Qingyan, it meant something else, and he thought to himself that it was indeed so.

In that case, he had to intensify his efforts.

“Okay, no problem for me.” Xu Qingyan revealed a smile.

Seeing this, Pei Muchan also breathed a sigh of relief.

She felt both relieved that she could skip tonight and fortunate that she spoke first.

This helped preserve the man’s fragile ego, but it didn’t matter.

He was already very capable, it was just her own tough stance that was the issue.

However, she could hardly take much more.

At times like these, a man should have nearly exhausted his energy.

He smiled too, probably relieved as well.

The closer they got to Jiangpan Residential Area, the more solemn Xu Qingyan’s expression became.

It seemed he was waiting for something.

By contrast, Pei Muchan seemed much more relaxed.

“I’m going to take a shower first, I’ll talk to you when I come out,” Pei Muchan cheerfully said.

However, after only a few steps, Xu Qingyan suddenly grabbed her hand.

At that moment, Pei Muchan was slightly stunned and turned her head curiously to look at Xu Qingyan.

“What’s wrong?”
“Let’s take a shower together, it’ll be convenient,” Jiang Nian had already prepared.

Pei Muchan originally intended to refuse, as each time entering the bathroom took over an hour.

But then she thought, war was already postponed, what was there to fear, for convenience’s sake…

“Alright.” She smiled.

The twist started with Pei Muchan’s single phrase, “Ah!”
The bathroom was dim, and it was a long while before the door was opened.

Pei Muchan, who had cleaned up, was carried to the room, her mouth slightly open, with a conflicted expression.

Should she say it, probably there would be nothing more to follow.

Maybe she should go back and change it?

Before she could figure it out, Xu Qingyan gently placed her on the bed.

Into her astonished eyes, Xu Qingyan walked towards her…

The next day.

Pei Muchan woke up feeling deserted, looking at the dim room.

She had confessed everything the night before, with absolutely no reservations.

She just couldn’t endure the huge ordeal any longer, almost feeling shattered.

It felt like floating on the sea and suddenly encountering a storm.

To prevent injury, she finally went to the hospital with multiple pains after confessing everything.

When Xu Qingyan found out that she had been enduring all along, he looked somewhat surprised but didn’t say much, only suggesting that she shouldn’t do this next time, it was entirely unnecessary.

In the end, it was almost like falling apart, and she was left completely exhausted.

During the drive to work, Xu Qingyan thought about last night.

He wished he could have exerted every effort, only to find out it was a huge misunderstanding in the end.

Right away, Pei Muchan organized the events in her viewpoint.

After listening, he was at a loss for words.

To explain or not to explain was the question, and he didn’t heed her pause request at all, pulling to full throttle.

Throughout the process, she wasn’t hurt, but it did break her habit of enduring emotions.

It took a bit more effort than usual to clear the level.

Effortlessly, she also found someone’s limit.

Alright.

Next time, start the siege from this limit.

Arriving at the company.

Xu Qingyan dealt with a major concern, feeling much lighter.

On second thought, he found it rather amusing.

He initially thought she was extraordinarily gifted, belonging to those with high thresholds.

Who would have known the truth…

that Pei Muchan was a bit weak.

Previously, she endured for the sake of face, but now that her persona had shattered, her face was broken into pieces.

Instead, now she had a feeling of being resigned to her fate, openly requesting rest, claiming her body couldn’t bear it anymore and couldn’t continue like before.

To this, Xu Qingyan agreed effortlessly.

Such things, even if he didn’t agree, couldn’t be helped.

Was he supposed to be angry with Pei Muchan?

Clearly not worth it, we’ll see later.

Xu Qingyan sat in front of his desk, shook his head, and cleared his mind of joyful thoughts, starting to work refreshingly.

Crazy Racing, the budget was set to 15 million.

That was his old habit, calling it a 15 million budget.

But how much it ultimately costs, we’ll see.

They should prepare enough money first, the cast remained the same.

While they weren’t completely famous yet, hurry up and get them to shoot the second part.

The remuneration doesn’t need to be too high, go by the market rate.

Xu Qingyan wasn’t the kind of person who quibbled over every detail, the necessary money he wouldn’t spend less.

However, he also won’t intentionally add money, only reaching a neutral price.

He hasn’t learned much about directing yet, running around four drama groups in a year.

He only learned a bit, not enough to say he could independently direct a major movie.

If Xu Qingyan really wanted to change careers to become a director, he would first need to follow a famous director to learn.

Accumulate some experience while further studying at a film academy.
