Hearing that Ling Tianya was here, everyone in the production crew had stopped what they were doing to turn to look at her.
The moment she stepped into the set, Ling Tianya could feel the entire crews’ eyes on her. With how scary Ruan Zeyan had been yesterday, it wasn’t strange for them to react this way at all.
Only Zhang Ke had been by Ling Tianya’s side in the crew previously, but now there are two other stern men. The two men wore the same clothes, with a professional bluetooth earpiece on. They followed behind Ling Tianya, absolute arrogance and seriousness on their face.
The two of them are brothers, nicknamed Big One, Small One.
Ruan Zeyan had increased his watch on Ling Tianya to prevent what happend yesterday from happening again. Previously, he had only sent two people to look after her from the shadows, trying his best to not affect her normal daily routines and work. From today onwards, Ruan Zeyan had sent a team to protect her from the shadows, and assigned his two best bodyguards, Big One and Small One, to protect Ling Tianya just by her side.
Zhang Heng rushed up the moment he saw Ling Tianya, grabbing onto her shoulders in his urgentness, “Ms Ling…”
Even before he could finish, he was pushed to the ground by Small One, and ended on the receiving end of a harsh glare.
This did shock Zhang Heng quite badly, sitting on the floor where he landed in a daze, unable to process what had happened.
“What were you doing!” Ling Tianya reprimanded Small One.
Small One was stern, “I’m doing what I should be, protecting Ms Ling’s safety.”
Ling Tianya just scoffed, “Is this how you protect someone?”
Ling Tianya reached down to help Zhang Heng up, “Are you alright, Director?”
Zhang Heng shook his head, waringly sparing Small One a look, “I’m alright. What about you? You really did give me a scare yesterday, are you okay?” Zhang Heng observantly noticed the injury on Ling Tianya’s lip’s corners, “You got injured?”
Ling Tianya touched the corner, smiling, “It’s just a minor one, not a big issue.”
“That’s good, that’s good!” Zhang Heng let out a relieved smile.
“Yes, thank goodness you’re alright, Ms Ling.” A sharp female voice came, Li Fei was walking over with the brightest grin, but her eyes missing Zhang Heng’s excitement, “Mr Ruan had almost tore down the entire set just to look for you, Ms Ling. We still hadn’t reconstructed everything.”
It was only then did Ling Tianya take a look at the entire set, and it was a mess. The team merely rebuilt the sets that they had needed today haphazardly, but the rest were still in the process of salvaging.
Ling Tianya gave Li Fei an eye, before her gaze landed on Yi Tian behind her, the tears in her eyes threatening to spill.
Seeing Ling Tianya finally notice her, Yi Tian’s tears fell at just the right time, her voice slightly choked up, excitedly exclaiming, “Ms Ling, it’s great that you’re alright. You had went missing so suddenly yesterday, Mr Gu and I were looking for you for so long! It wasn’t until Mr Ruan was here, did we know you had gone missing. I was really upset, worried that you had come to harm!”
Yi Tian frantically rubbed away her tears that were just getting more by the minute, a smile finally tugging on those lips, “But, thank goodness that God was benevolent. I’m so glad that you’re okay, Ms Ling!”
Yi Tian had announced to the world that she was Ling Tianya’s fan. Her reaction now, the extreme relief after her idol had escaped the clutches of death was the most touching thing that they had seen to the world.
Yi Tian really did love Ms Ling, it had been so touching to see.
Faced with Yi Tian’s such heartful performance, Ling Tianya merely thought, ‘Should I play along with her?’
?
Let’s play Tianya… Let’s see what she has…
Watch her silently…

Yi Tian was shedding tons of tears, but she was also smiling excitedly. The level of twisted emotion and expression was painstaking. She looked at Ling Tianya with tears in her eyes, trying to show her the innocent heart of a fan girl.
Ling Tianya just stood there looking back at her with a smile, without saying a word.
To her dismay, Yi Tian had to try even harder to appear excited, her sobbing became louder and more distressed. The way she was crying was drawing sympathy from people around her.
Zhang Heng looked at Yi Tian, and with a fatherly smile he patted her shoulder. “You have to stop crying. Look, your idol is standing right here!”
“Yeah.” Yi Tian nodded and took the opportunity to wind down the crying.
“That’s right. Stop crying. You don’t want to affect your acting in the shooting later on.” Such gentle comforting was rare coming from Zhang Heng. Normally Zhang Heng would only be polite to Ling Tianya and Gu Zhiqian and was quite strict to the others in the crew. Yi Tian was the first person that made Zhang Heng come down from his high horse and soften his voice. That alone had once again elevated Yi Tian’s status in the crew.
“Okay, I got it, Director. I will adjust my emotion and it will not affect the shooting.” Yi Tian said in a wavering voice.
Seeing at Yi Tian gradually stopped crying and her mood stabilized, Ling Tianya secretly sighed.
Well, what a waste of a good show!
Ling Tianya was hoping to see how long Yi Tian would cry if she didn’t speak any words to her, but Zhang Heng’s intervention had spoiled the show.
“Yi Tian, your makeup is messed up, let me help you get a touchup.” Li Fei rolled her eyes at Ling Tianya. Her artist was so excited to see her that she cried her heart out and Ling Tianya had nothing to say about it.
“Okay.” Yi Tian looked at Ling Tianya and her eyes seemed to say, “Even if I am nothing in your eyes, I’m still your little fan girl!” Then she said, “Miss Ling, I am going to get my makeup redone. Will you go over the script with me later?”
Ling Tianya smiled. “You are great at acting, you don’t need my help.”
Yi Tian’s face went stiff. With her lips shaking, she finally looked anguished.
Li Fei rolled her eyes and pulled on Yi Tian. “Let’s go! Nobody cares that you are crying so hard.” Then, Li Fei took Yi Tian’s hand and walked toward the lounge. Being dragged by Li Fei, Yi Tian still kept looking back at Ling Tianya from time to time.
“Miss Ling, you don’t like Yi Tian?” Zhang Heng asked. It was obvious that Ling Tianya’s reaction to Yi Tian was less than enthusiastic.
“It’s not that.” Ling Tianya replied with a smile. “I like to separate work from personal lives. Yi Tian loves my books and I am very happy for that.”
“Ah.” Zhang Heng nodded in agreement. “It’s good to separate them.”
Zhang Heng did not suspect anything, and after he finished talking to Ling Tianya, he went back to supervise the set.
Watching Zhang Heng walk away, Ling Tianya shook her head. Zhang Heng was truly a film nerd. His intelligence was really challenged in other areas though.
As soon as they arrived in the lounge, Yi Tian pushed Li Fei away impatiently. “What are you grabbing me so hard for? It hurts, don’t you know?”
Li Fei was stunned. The artist of hers was a pitiful doll before stepping in the door, and then she became a feisty cat? The change was so fast!
“Why are you looking at me like that? Go get me some nutritious food.” Yi Tian sat in a chair irritably, examining herself carefully in the mirror. Then she complained unhappily, “I was crying outside in the wind for so long. Do you think it will damage my skin?”
Yi Tian felt increasingly sullen thinking about it. Ling Tianya obviously just wanted to see how long she could cry. If Zhang Heng did not speak out, she would have to keep crying.
“She’s really a bad woman!”
