Chapter 421
When Sophia left home this time, she brought Maria and a chef from the kitchen along with her in
addition to Hale, her bodyguard.
The food on film sets were generally poor in taste. By bringing a chef with her, she could allow Michael to
eat something better. He usually ate whatever the rest of the film crew ate on set without voicing any
requests, which made Sophia feel sorry for him.
After arriving at the airport, they were picked up by a young man wearing a brightly-colored shirt.
Michael had told her that Danny, his personal assistant, was the most showily-dressed and the most
talkative out of his ten bodyguards.
Danny worked as Michael’s personal assistant when thetter was on a film set, so he would be on
leave whenever Michael went home, which was why they had never had a chance to see him in
person. Now that they saw him on this day, they were stunned at the sight of the person before them.
When Danny saw that Sophia was the fair lolita in her sweet youth standing over there, he thought to
himself with a sigh, What an extreme taste Boss has for girls. How could hey his hands on such a
youngdy?
On the other hand, Sophia saw that Danny was a showily-dressed young man who looked like a
peacock.
Not only that, but Danny never seemed to stop talking from the moment she got off the ne until the
moment they arrived at the hotel in the film studio.
“Hello, Madam. Ah, you’re so beautiful, Madam. Boss’s judgment has really be better. No wonder
he keeps mentioning his chica on set…”
“Oh, Hale, it’s been a long time since west met! You’re still dashing, handsome, tall, and sturdy as
usual. I heard that you have been courting Gwentely. Have you managed to hold hands with her and
kiss her on the lips? Would you mind sharing with me how far your rtionship with her has
progressed?”

“This little beauty here must be Maria! Nice to meet you! I’m Danny, or you can call me by my nickname
Dan. Why aren’t you speaking, little beauty? What is your zodiac sign? I’m a Sagittarius…”
It was quite a distance from the airport to the hotel in the film studio. While Sophia was in the car, she
dreamed that she was back in the countryside of Riverdale.
She was opening the duck pen to let the ducks out for a while, but the instant the duck pen opened, the
ducks came out in an endless stream and quacked nonstop. Quack! Quack! Quack! Quack…
The film studio was located on the hill; it was a well-known tourist attraction and a great summer resort.
Also, the film studio covered most of the county area, so the county earned most of its profit from tourism
and by leasing the film studio to film crews.
Sophia had dreamed of traveling back when she was poor. However, she was penniless at the time, so
she had to save money for a long time just to get enough money for sightseeing around the ancient
Imperial Pce at the center of Bayside City.
When she became rich afterward, however, she didn’t have the time to travel.
This was the first time she came to the film studio. Overwhelmed with curiosity, she kept looking around
upon entering the studio.
Danny began talking on and on about the film studio. “This film studio is one of the earliest film studios
built in Cethos. Being thergest film studio in Aseanos, it has three major areas with different historical
settings: the Ancient Area, the Republican Area, and the Modern Area.
It also has an Outdoor Area, a Military Area, a Sci-Fi Area, and a Foreign Area. We’re now in the Ancient
Area. Once we get insideter, we can no longer travel by car; we can only walk or ride on a carriage.”
Some of the residents here had even been working as walk-ons for generations. Ancient-looking
pavilions were everywhere in the Ancient Area, and most of the tourists walking on the streets were
dressed in historical costumes.
The street vendors were also dressed in historical costumes so that any film crew that was shooting at
this area could clear the scene and start shooting as quickly as possible.
As soon as they entered the Ancient Area, Danny rented some historical costumes and took Sophia to a
stylist to have her hair done in the olden style. After that, he took her for a walk around the Ancient Area.
Maria followed behind Sophia in high spirits while wearing a historical costume as well. Meanwhile, Hale
was forced to dress in the embarrassing style of a house servant as he walked behind them, whereas
Danny was still wearing his showy clothes.
Walking around the area with interest, Sophia kept taking pictures everywhere with the camera in her
hand. Whenever she saw that a film crew was filming, she would immediately go near them to take a
look.
Since all of this was very new to her, as she continued walking around and taking pictures, she
eventually forgot her purpose ining here.
Over ten film crews were filming in the Ancient Area. Extras were everywhere, and there were tourists
dressed in historical costumes and in modern clothes, resulting in a strange scene.
Danny cooperatively took group pictures for them. When Sophia asionally saw a good-looking extra,
she would excitedly ask him or her to take a picture with her.
Dressed in embarrassing clothes, Hale followed Sophia around expressionlessly. He had an earpiece on,
and he was on phone conversation all the time.
“Madam has passed through the Glory Gate.”
After a while, he would report something else. “She bought two lollipops and quite enjoyed eating them.”
A few momentster, he said, “She hase under the yellowntern at the Pryley Gate. The tourists
and walk-ons ahead are rtively few, and they are ugly. The atmosphere is just right, and the lighting is
fine. You may make a dazzling appearance now…”
They got off the ne in the afternoon. Before they realized it, they had walked until the evening. There
were fewer tourists in the area, but many film crews were still filming night scenes.
Lanterns were hung along the streets in the Ancient Area. They were just electric lights disguised as
lanterns instead of the real ancient papernterns, but the colorfulmpshades still looked splendid as
thenterns were lit up.
The entire street looked dreamlike, and those walking along the streets were all actors dressed in
historical costumes. Also, there were now fewer tourists wearing modern clothes. As Sophia walked on
the street, she felt like having time-traveled to the past. It was as if she had traveled back 1,000 years in
time and was enjoying a dreamy night of the olden ages.
Suddenly, she saw a man dressed in a white historical costume walking ahead of her. He was probably
an actor, for he had a prop sword with him. Moreover, the film crew of a martial arts blockbuster was
filming night scenes nearby.
The man in the white historical costume walked in a hurry with his back to Sophia. She could tell from the
aura he gave off that he must be a big name in the entertainment industry.
Thus, Sophia immediately stepped forward to ask the man to take a picture together with her. “Wait a
minute, handsome! Can we take pictures together?”
Since there weren’t many people between them, Sophia immediately trotted past the crowd toward him.
The actor was walking in a hurry. However, upon hearing Sophia’s voice, he paused and looked back.
He was obviously ying the role of a knight. Dressed in a costume as white as snow, he even wore a
hat with his face covered by a white veil.
Sophia didn’t care whether his face was handsome or not, for she just wanted to take a picture together
with him before anything else. So, she said eagerly, “Hi, may I take a picture together with you?”
The hat moved slightly; the person seemed to have nodded.
Sophia immediately had Dannye over to take a picture for them. Posing for the camera with a
victory sign, she had a typical tourist photo taken of herself. She seemed not to notice that Maria, who
excitedly approached them to have a picture taken together as well, was quickly dragged away by Hale.
Sophia then looked at the photo, which looked awesome. Satisfied, she nodded continuously to the
actor, saying, “Thank you. Thank you so much.”
Then, a clear and attractive voice came from under the hat. “You’re wee.”
Sophia was stunned upon hearing the voice. Her eyes widened at once, and the smile on her face was
quickly reced with a dumbfounded look. As she raised her head to look up at him, the gentle light
shone on her face, adding a touch of softness to her facial features. This voice. Isn’t he…
The man in white before her slowly lifted the white veil between them with his long fingers, revealing a
dazzlingly handsome face.
The man looked drop-dead gorgeous. His eyebrows were thick and smooth with an artificial beauty mark
painted between them, while his eyes were unusually attractive and tender. Slightly raising the corners of
his lips, he said with a smile, “You can take a couple more pictures of us together. I won’t charge you for
it.”
