Ji Xiaoli had just turned around to go back when she saw the director still standing there. She quickly stepped forward to greet him, "Good day, Director."
The director nodded with a smile. "You and Mr. Zheng seem to have a great relationship. Don't take it to heart if there's anything not going smoothly for you on the set in the future."
Ji Xiaoli understood the director's implication and felt a bit helpless. "No, I won't. Director, you can rest assured. Just follow the normal procedures. There's no need for any special treatment for me."
Seeing that Ji Xiaoli was so modest, polite and not acting arrogantly due to Mr. Zheng's favor, the director's impression of her immediately improved a lot.
The director nodded in satisfaction. "As long as you understand. I'll go back to work then."
Noticing that the director's attitude towards her had changed, Ji Xiaoli smiled and said goodbye to the director before going back to her own business.
On the other hand, after Zheng Nanfeng returned to the company, he immediately got busy with work non - stop.
After dealing with all the company's affairs for the past few days, Zheng Nanfeng gave some instructions to his secretary and then rushed to the filming set again.
Ji Xiaoli was stunned when she saw Zheng Nanfeng show up at the set again. What on earth was he doing here again?
Zheng Nanfeng thought Ji Xiaoli was stunned because she was too happy. He immediately gave her a big bear hug.
"They say a day apart feels like three years. Xiaoli, do you miss me terribly?"
Ji Xiaoli, being hugged tightly by Zheng Nanfeng and unable to breathe, had a look of annoyance on her face. It took her quite some effort to push Zheng Nanfeng away.
"Why are you here again? Have you finished all the company's business?"
Zheng Nanfeng nodded and looked at Ji Xiaoli with an expectant expression, seeking praise.
Ji Xiaoli frowned. "But you're neither a crew member nor an actor. What are you doing staying on the set all day long?"
"I'm the investor of this show. Is there any problem for me to come and supervise the progress?"
Zheng Nanfeng's words left Ji Xiaoli speechless.
But then she thought that with Zheng Nanfeng around, no one would dare to bully her, which would save her a lot of trouble.
Only then did Ji Xiaoli finally accept the fact that Zheng Nanfeng would stay on the set with her.
The food on the set was usually boxed lunches. Although they were just boxed lunches, the quality was still acceptable.
But when Zheng Nanfeng saw Ji Xiaoli eating a boxed lunch, his face immediately darkened. "What kind of lousy set is this? How could they let you eat this stuff?"
Ji Xiaoli was completely taken aback by Zheng Nanfeng's sudden outburst. "Everyone eats boxed lunches. What's the problem?"
Seeing Ji Xiaoli's reaction, Zheng Nanfeng felt extremely heart - broken.
She ate boxed lunches as if it was the most natural thing. What kind of life was his Xiaoli living?
Zheng Nanfeng snatched the boxed lunch out of Ji Xiaoli's hand and said fiercely, "Don't eat this anymore!"
Ji Xiaoli looked at Zheng Nanfeng in a daze. "What are you doing? You took away my lunch. What am I supposed to eat?"
Hearing this, Zheng Nanfeng looked at Ji Xiaoli and then at the boxed lunch in his hand. He was extremely conflicted.
How could his Xiaoli eat such unnutritious junk food? But if he didn't let her eat it, she would be hungry...
Finally, Zheng Nanfeng reluctantly returned the boxed lunch to Ji Xiaoli, but still added fiercely,
"This is the only time. From now on, I'll bring you delicious food every day. Don't eat these boxed lunches anymore!"
Ji Xiaoli didn't take this to heart and happily ate the boxed lunch in her hand.
What was so bad about the boxed lunch? It tasted really good!
But when it was mealtime again, Ji Xiaoli didn't receive her boxed lunch.
The staff in charge of distributing the boxed lunches said apologetically, "Sorry, Sister Xiaoli. Mr. Zheng has instructed that we can't give you boxed lunches anymore."
What? What did it mean not to give her food? Was Zheng Nanfeng trying to starve her to death?
Ji Xiaoli angrily went to find Zheng Nanfeng and found that he was also looking for her with a lunch box in his hand.
"Xiaoli, there you are. Come over and eat quickly. Look what delicious food I've brought for you!"
Seeing the delicious food Zheng Nanfeng had brought for her, Ji Xiaoli immediately lost her temper.
She opened the lunch box and saw that all were her favorite dishes.
She took a bite and her face immediately lit up. "Delicious!"
Zheng Nanfeng said proudly, "It's much better than those boxed lunches, right? Xiaoli, don't worry. As long as I'm here, I'll make sure you eat and live well!"
Hearing this, Ji Xiaoli remembered what Zheng Nanfeng had said at noon. She thought it was just a joke, but unexpectedly, Zheng Nanfeng really remembered it.
Ji Xiaoli was very touched. "Nanfeng, thank you!"
From then on, Zheng Nanfeng brought different delicious food for Ji Xiaoli every day, for fear that she might not eat well.
Even the system couldn't help teasing Ji Xiaoli.
[He's really deeply in love. Even this system is envious.]
Hearing the system's words, Ji Xiaoli didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She never thought she could make the system envious.
The leading actress on the set was a popular young star named Shen Wei. She was unhappy to see Ji Xiaoli having a bigger "scene" than her, the leading actress.
But she was overthinking. Except for Zheng Nanfeng giving Ji Xiaoli special food, Ji Xiaoli didn't ask for any other privileges.
As soon as Zheng Nanfeng returned to the company, Shen Wei came in front of Ji Xiaoli and sneered.
"I really don't know what some people are thinking. Coming in through connections and still being so self - assured. I've really opened my eyes."
Ji Xiaoli thought that after Zheng Nanfeng's performance on the set, no one would dare to bully her anymore. It seemed she was overthinking.
Ji Xiaoli was stunned for a moment, then quickly retorted, "I really don't know what some people are thinking. Just because no one brings them food, they start talking about others. I really don't understand their mentality."
Ji Xiaoli didn't go looking for trouble, but she wasn't afraid of it either. Since someone dared to bully her, she didn't mind showing her strength.
Shen Wei, who was retorted, glared at Ji Xiaoli fiercely but was left speechless. "You!"
Ji Xiaoli calmly continued, "I didn't say it was about anyone. It's better not to put yourself in the shoes of others."
These words made Shen Wei's face turn green and then white. Finally, she had no choice but to leave angrily.
This Ji Xiaoli, she was just lucky. What right did she have to be with Nanfeng?
No, she must make Nanfeng see this woman's true face!
Shen Wei clenched her fists tightly, her eyes full of jealousy.
When Zheng Nanfeng returned to the set, Ji Xiaoli was still filming, so he walked around the set by himself first.
Seeing that Zheng Nanfeng was alone, Shen Wei immediately stepped forward to greet him. "Mr. Zheng, why are you alone here?"
Zheng Nanfeng glanced at Shen Wei and replied indifferently, "Just taking a walk."
These words made Shen Wei overjoyed. She immediately followed Zheng Nanfeng's steps.
"Mr. Zheng, I wonder if you've heard anything about Xiaoli?"
Hearing Ji Xiaoli's name, Zheng Nanfeng immediately became interested. "Oh? What's the matter?"
Shen Wei curled her lips and then deliberately started speaking ill of Ji Xiaoli in front of Zheng Nanfeng.
Ji Xiaoli, let's see what you're worth without Mr. Zheng!
