Chapter 309: Chapter 304: Leng Yan Gives Ji Wei a Farewell Party
"You guys go in, I’ll head out first."
Ji Wei waited for a long time, but Leng Yan showed no intention of talking to her. She bit her lip and took her leave.
Wen Nuan held Leng Yan’s hand, her gaze warning him, "Don’t speak." Seeing his face devoid of any expression as if Ji Wei didn’t exist, she smiled contentedly at him.
She wasn’t a mean person, but Ji Wei was just too annoying. If she liked to provoke others openly, then let Ji Wei taste what it’s like to be provoked.
Through the large window display, Wen Nuan watched Ji Wei walk away before she leaned close to Leng Yan, who was intently looking at a photo album. He saw her approach and pointed to a book for her to see, "What do you think?"
The style was very artistic, just what Wen Nuan liked. It seemed he put a lot of thought into it. She deliberately nudged him, "Not worried anymore?"
If it had been the past, he’d feel guilty. When Wen Nuan provoked Ji Wei, he would definitely feel a pang of guilt. But now, he seemed indifferent, as if Ji Wei was just an employee to him. "Little woman!" Leng Yan pinched her nose, bringing her closer to look into his eyes, "See if there’s only you inside?"
She glanced over, her peach blossom eyes glinting with a sparkling light, emitting a tenderness that could captivate one’s heart. Wen Nuan blushed, turning her face away, "Let’s go, we won’t take pictures today."
"We can do a test shoot today, just take a couple of trial shots and see the effects on the computer. If you like them, you can take more," a shop assistant came over to suggest.
Wen Nuan chuckled softly, "Better not."
"Don’t like it here?" Leng Yan was pulled outside by her, asking confusedly.
"No, it’s just not convenient to shoot today." She pinched his wrist hard, her face red, "You’re the culprit!"
Seeing he still didn’t understand, she let out a low hum of "blockhead" and slightly pulled down her dress collar, saying in a low voice, "With you leaving me like this, how can I shoot?"
Her body was covered with hickey-like marks; how could she dare to take pictures?
Ji Wei stood at the entrance of a store nearby, dazedly watching the red marks on Wen Nuan’s fair neck, biting her lips tightly.
The traces of intimacy, like sparks of desire, fiercely burned her eyes.
"Sister Ji, the car is parked." Xiao Liu walked over from a distance, seeing Ji Wei staring at the backs of a man and woman ahead for a long time, his voice changed, "Young Master Leng and Wen Nuan?"
"It’s them." Ji Wei smiled coldly.
Xiao Liu was startled, quickly turning back, seeing the icy chill emanating from Ji Wei’s eyes, feeling a slight coldness on his body, "Sister Ji, be careful of the baby..."
Everyone says pregnant women are emotionally unstable, Xiao Liu didn’t believe it before but now deeply feels it. She was really afraid Ji Wei would have a fit in public, so she could only cautiously remind her to take care of her body and image.
"The baby?" Ji Wei laughed angrily, looking down at her belly, "Xiao Liu, do you really think it can be a bargaining chip?"
"Sister Ji..." Xiao Liu was a bit scared by her laughter. Ji Wei’s eyes didn’t show much love for the child; she could feel that. She fearfully reminded her, "It’s not good for either you or the baby."
"Didn’t you see Wen Nuan flaunting just now?" Ji Wei let out a breath of resentment, "This time she is truly proud, Leng Yan dotes on her like that, I hate it!"
"Don’t be angry, Sister Ji, didn’t you say you’d find the old lady as soon as the filming wraps up? Then let’s see if Wen Nuan can still be proud?"
"I’ll make her cry terribly!" Ji Wei squinted her eyes, speaking coolly, her words harsh, yet unable to hide the unease deep in her heart, "Will Leng Yan accept the child?"
She was increasingly feeling a sense of crisis. Leng Yan now wholeheartedly loved Wen Nuan; if Li Qiu tells him she was pregnant, would Leng Yan force her to terminate the pregnancy?

"Master, did Tan Qing say when he’ll be back?"
Lin Xue’s work had come to a pause, and Wen Nuan put away and organized things, glancing at the calendar on the table, softly asking Lin Xue.
According to Lin Xue, when she went to the director’s office earlier, the director was on a call with Tan Qing.
"He didn’t say, but with the chairman holding the fort at the company, he might be too caught up to notice," Lin Xue chuckled, "Nuannuan, you’re not thinking about resigning again, are you? That won’t do, unless Young Master Tan comes back and finds me a satisfactory assistant, I won’t let you go."
Wen Nuan had a good sense of design, often bringing Lin Xue design inspiration. She liked her very much. Moreover, if things developed at this rate, Wen Nuan could soon become an official designer at MT. Lin Xue was very hopeful that her favorite assistant could have a bigger space to showcase her design talents.
Wen Nuan smiled helplessly, "Master, you should look for an assistant now. Isn’t the company having recruitment soon? It’s a good opportunity."
MT wasn’t a place she could stay for long. Tan Qing would eventually return, and rather than both of them living in awkwardness, it’s better for her to step back and create some distance, allowing both sides to return to being friends from the start.
"Alright, actually I know I can’t keep you, but I still can’t bear it," Lin Xue smiled a bit helplessly, "Whatever happens, seeing you doing well makes my heart happy."
She thought about it, carefully asking, "I saw in the entertainment news the other day that Ji Wei’s period drama will soon wrap up filming?"
"Yes, her scenes wrap up today, others will follow a few days later." Wen Nuan nodded, she heard about this from Leng Yan yesterday, he moved Ji Wei’s scenes up to let her leave early. Wen Nuan felt a real sense of relief upon hearing this news.
Ji Wei would soon leave N City, it was exceptionally good news for her.
Tong Xi had met her a few days ago and informed her that Ji Wei was already quietly preparing to leave. Tong Xi hugged her, joyously shouting, even saying that once that vixen Ji Wei was gone, they’d set off fireworks in celebration.
On set, after Director Weng gave the order, Ji Wei immediately suggested treating everyone to a meal, to which many responded enthusiastically, shouting that they wouldn’t rest until they had a feast at Ji Wei’s expense.
"Director Weng, Manager Wu, please come along," Ji Wei, still in her costume, walked over to Director Weng and Wu Weitong, extending a warm invitation. She then caught sight of Leng Yan about to leave and quickly ran to him, calling out, "Mr. Leng!"
Tong Xi stood at the side, squinting slightly, holding her phone, with a hidden angry glint in her eyes.
If Leng Yan dared to go today, she would immediately call Wen Nuan, and this time, let Leng Yan be so lost he wouldn’t know north from south!
"What’s up?"
Leng Yan turned back and glanced at her, his face showing no particular expression.
Wu Weitong and Director Weng mentioned that this being the first film since Qingcheng’s reorganization, they definitely wanted him to see the last shot. Not wanting to offend Director Weng, that’s why he came. Now with the scene over, he wanted to leave.
Ji Wei looked at him, her eyes shimmered with something bright, she forced herself not to let the tears fall, "Join us for dinner, as a farewell for me."
