After the Fake Young Lady Stole Everything from Me, I Became the World's Sweetheart

Chapter 18: Chapter Eighteen: Cheer Up

Fang Xi came to work the next day. She was a little haggard but not dispirited.

No one noticed anything unusual.

When the office was empty of others, Yun Nan could not help but ask her, "Why don't you take a long vacation? Go out on a trip and clear your head."

Fang Xi was surprised and countered, "You've gotten your script back, so your film is set to go. I have to sign you up for this year's film festival and prepare for all sorts of activities. Where would I find the time to take a break?"

Yun Nan looked at Fang Xi and said nothing.

Fang Xi smiled and patted her shoulder. "Don't worry. It's just a breakup; I can handle it. There are plenty of men out there. Out with the old and in with the new, right?"

Yun Nan grabbed her hand. "The more you say things like that, the more it shows you care for and haven't let go of him. If you want to throw yourself into work, then I won't force you. However, you must, MUST take good care of yourself. I need you, whether it's at work or in my personal life!"

Fang Xi's eyes were a little wet. She gave Yun Nan a small push, "Brat! You're too much! Who needs a man when I have you? Why don't we just spend the rest of our lives together?"

Yun Nan laughed and avoided her grabby hands. "Why would I spend the rest of my life with you when I can spend it with my money?" she teased.

"Hey! Do you have something against living with me?" Fang Xi pretended to hit her.

The two of them laughed and played around for a while before they calmed down. Fang Xi felt much more relaxed and looked at Yun Nan gratefully. "You are a gift from the heavens! Yun Nan, it's great to have you around."

Yun Nan smiled but didn't say anything.

Fang Xi continued, "You're right, I'm still upset. After all, I've been with him for seven years. In the best years of my youth, he was in every corner. Now that our relationship is at an end, it's impossible not to be sad, but what can I do?"

"From the very beginning, he never promised me a lifetime. I loved him, and I felt that the process was more important than the result. Like a moth, I plunged into the flame and burned to pieces without hesitation."

"Yun Nan, I don't regret it. I'm just… I'm just a little reluctant to let things end like this. After all, we spent seven years together, and I didn't get even a little bit of affection from him. It makes me feel quite frustrated. Am I really that terrible?"

Tears rolled down Fang Xi's face as she laughed self-deprecatingly.

Yun Nan patted her hand and comforted her, "It's not you, it's him! He's the blind one! Trust me; he will get his just desserts! If a blind man like him can have a good ending, then the heavens must also be blind. If that's the case, why do you still belittle yourself? Fang Xi, he's not worth it!"

Fang Xi's tears had already stopped. She smiled and perked up. "Don't blame the heavens; it has nothing to do with this. Don't speak without restraint! Be careful or the heavens might send you a scumbag boyfriend," she jibed.

Yun Nan was indifferent to romance, and she said as much. "I'm not interested in men! I'm born without a romantic bone in my body!"

Fang Xi looked at the top of Yun Nan's head with pity and said, "Yes, I know, I know. You're only interested in money! Then let's earn money!"

Yun Nan nodded. "That's the spirit! Money is the greatest and only source of security!"

Fang Xi smiled and said, "Yeah! Then let's hurry up and make some money, Boss!"

Yun Nan waved her fist and stood up. "Money makes me happy!"

Their studio had just started operations, and there were too many things to do. The two friends quickly became immersed in discussing their work plans.

"Yun Nan, have Annie and Meida help you revise the script. You guys don't have to worry about anything else. I'll instruct the others and have them edit your previous movies and documentaries into short videos. When the voting for the award nomination begins, we'll release the short videos as part of our campaign. The social media accounts we opened years ago have been well-maintained. In the future, they'll be our exclusive public social accounts, and we will post the short videos there, along with the studio's notices and promotions. Everything is ready to go!"

Fang Xi's eyes sparkled and shone when she talked about work.

Yun Nan also quickly switched to work mode and gave her own opinions. "I'm almost done revising the script, but I didn't show it to Yun Zhang and the others. I knew Yun Liu wouldn't be willing to let me shoot another movie. We should discuss the casting with everyone else, but I think we should let Mika handle it. He's a good judge of character, and I trust him."

Working with like-minded people can be extremely efficient.

The two of them finished work early and went to the hotel in the afternoon to move Fang Xi's things to her new home.

"Yun Nan, how did you find such a nice place?" Fang Xi exclaimed, looking at the apartment. "I can't believe I managed to rent such a nice house at such a low price."

Yun Nan took the chance to tell Fang Xi everything about her marriage agreement with Shi Nian, and the fact that he was Fang Xi's new landlord. However, she hid the part about the extra rent.

Fang Xi knew Yun Nan's family situation the best out of all her friends. She wasn't surprised that she left the Yun family. In fact, Fang Xi felt it was the best choice Yun Nan could make. Even so, she couldn't help but be alarmed that Yun Nan actually agreed to a contract marriage with Shi Nian just to break free of her horrid family.
