    After hearing Shi Lu enter the room and close the door, Shi Xiao said calmly, “You used Shenn Venture Investment Company to invest in the Tan family’s newpany. Has the funds started to flow back yet?”


    Yuan Shu wasn’t surprised to hear him suddenly ask about this. She knew that this matter couldn’t be hidden from Shi Xiao at all. Back then, she had asked Shi Lu for money because she didn’t have it and didn’t want to use Shi Xiao’s money.


    Yuan Shu replied frankly, “A small portion has already been returned.”


    Shi Xiao ced a piece of boiled meat on the te as he asked, “Why didn’t you just swipe a million yuan from my card?”


    Yuan Shu froze for a moment, since she didn’t expect him to ask about this. Yuan Shu didn’t exin the real reason. She couldn’t tell Shi Xiao that she didn’t want to use her ex-husband’s money because she knew that she was about to get a divorce in a month, right?


    Yuan Shu replied, “Because Shi Lu had it, 1 borrowed it from him.”


    Shi Xiao didn’t say anything else. After dinner, he put down his bowl and chopsticks and went upstairs to his room.


    When he returned to his room and turned on his cell phone, Shi Xiao saw the message Lin Xi had sent him. [Have your injuries healed?]


    Shi Xiao touched the wound on his body. When his finger touched the outline of the scab, he discovered that it was almost healed.


    [It healed.]


    Shi Xiao put down his phone after replying. As he looked out of the window at the dark sky, he felt a sense of disappointment. From the moment he came back and saw her until now, Yuan Shu had never asked about his injuries. What a heartless woman.


    In the Jiang family’s mansion.


    Jiang Chen sat on the European-style leather sofa as he answered a call. The person who called him was Wang Shen.


    “Boss, the matter has been arranged. They’lle over for an audition tomorrow afternoon.”


    After hearing this, Jiang Chen gripped the phone so tightly that his fingertips turned pale. He had waited for this day for too long.


    The scene that Yuan Shu was going to try out today was that of the female lead, Tang Yi, studying in the library of the military camp with the literary schr, Chen Zhou. However, because the literary schr and the teacher had different opinions about a sentence, they had an argument. The female lead didn’t agree with the teacher, so she helped the literary schr.


    Shi Lu wasn’t in today’s scene, but Yuan Shu had asked Shi Lu to apany her because if Yuan Shu’s emotions weren’t in ce during the audition, Shi Lu might be able to help her get into character faster.


    Recently, Yuan Shu had be very fond of casual clothes. Every day, she would wear a simple T-shirt and jeans. This was the greatest advantage of modern timespared to ancient times. There was no need forplicated clothes. It was more convenient for her to exercise and she wouldn’t be too hot in the summer.


    After Yuan Shu tied her hair into a bun, she went to the production team with Shi Xiao and Shi Lu.


    The male actor who was originally chosen to y the literary schr didn’t participate because of his schedule, but the filming time had already been set. Time was tight and the workload was heavy, so it was a little toote to find another actor. Therefore, Wang Shen decided to let Mu Zhou y the role.


    Yuan Shu was in the dressing room getting the makeup artist to fix her makeup, while Shi Lu was lying on the sofa. Zhang Chao, as her manager, had to apany her. He was ordering milk tea for everyone in the production team.


    Yuan Shu even asked Shi Lu, “Music directors can also y roles?”


    Shi Lu tapped the cell phone in his hand and said nonchntly, “What’s so strange about that? There are many executive directors who even act as the protagonist, not to mention that Mu Zhou is only a music director. However, it’s just an audition, yet Director Wang even has someone to fix his makeup and hair. Isn’t that a little too much?”


    Yuan Shu smiled, but didn’t say anything.


    Shi Lu was able to sit here and y with his phone now because Shi Xiao suddenly received a call before he got out of the car and had something urgent to deal with, so he didn’t follow them to the set in the end. This made Shi Lu extremely happy.


    After a while, someone knocked on the door. Yuan Shu was changing in the inner room, so Zhang Chao ran over to open the door. It was Mu Zhou, who had already had his makeup done.


    Mu Zhou looked gentle, his skin was fairer than that of ordinary men, and his eyes were charming. He looked handsome in ancient style clothing.


    Yuan Shu had just changed her clothes and came out when she met Mu Zhou’s gaze..
