Chapter 193 Eating with your little white wolf?
On set, Yan Zhuoyu and several other lead actors arrived at the dressing room early to begin preparing for filming.
She had dark circles under her eyes and couldn't sleep at all last night after drinking goji berry tea.
After the makeup artist finished her makeup, Yan Zhuoyu took off the jade bracelet from her wrist and handed it to Qiao Xinyun for safekeeping.
Sasha happened to be passing by, and with her sharp eyes, she exclaimed, "Yan! Who gave you this bracelet? I saw it at an auction not long ago, and it was bought for over forty million!"
Qiao Xinyun quickly stuffed the bracelet into her bag and held it tightly to her chest.
Good heavens, forty million! Sasha said forty million is US dollars!
Why can't there be one more rich person like her in this world!
Just as Yan Zhuoyu was about to say that Fu Zhuchen had bought it, Wu Na, who was putting on makeup, beat her to it.
Una opened her eyes playfully and looked over here: "I also remember that the bracelet was apparently bought by a Chinese man surnamed Fu."
Sasha recalled, "Yes, yes, yes! His name is Fu Zhuchen!"
"That's right, he also bought a piece of ore worth tens of millions. When interviewed by reporters, he mentioned that he gave the ore to a friend to use for painting. It's so extravagant, I can't even imagine it!"
Una nodded: "I heard Director Major mention that Miss Yan previously worked with Director Fu Zhuchen on a martial arts film, so they must know each other."
Yan Zhuoyu then added, "Yes, Director Fu is also the boss of our company."
Sasha's attention was immediately diverted: "I see. I wish my boss could be this generous."
She muttered to herself, expressing her envy, as she slowly went to find the director.
Only Yan Zhuoyu and Wu Na remained in the dressing room.
After changing her clothes, Yan Zhuoyu got up, intending to familiarize herself with her lines again. So she stood up and said, "Teacher Una, I'm going to go and rehearse my lines with Sister Sasha first."
Una's gaze fell on the dashing black-haired woman in the mirror.
Yan Zhuoyu put on the Nightingale makeup and wore that familiar hoodie, her every move carrying the shadow of Jiang Yuelin.
I really miss it...
Una suddenly called out to her, "Wait."
Yan Zhuoyu turned around in confusion: "What's wrong, Teacher Una?"
Una scrutinized her closely, finally fixing his gaze on the finger where she had previously worn the fox spirit ring.
However, Yan Zhuoyu had already taken off the ring and given it to Qiao Xinyun for safekeeping.
Una slowly said, "Miss Yan, your family seems to be well-off. The fox spirit ring you wore earlier was also a rare item at the auction, and it was quite expensive. Ordinary actors probably couldn't afford it."
Yan Zhuoyu smiled calmly: "It's alright, I run a small company, and I don't buy these kinds of jewelry often."
She casually brushed it off, since Pei Weijin had bought the ring through a proxy auction, so she could wear it without worry.
However, she was curious whether Una still remembered her, and what he was planning to do with her. Did he want to be a stranger?
Una didn't delve into it, but simply shrugged, subtly reminding her: "Don't be too moved by any gift, no matter who gives it to you. A woman should ultimately prioritize her career. Never ruin your future for love and romance during the prime of your career."
Yan Zhuoyu understood what she was saying and what she meant.
"I know, Sister Una, thank you."
Una smiled when she heard her address.
She didn't really care what Yan Zhuoyu thought of her; she just felt it was a pity about what happened to Jiang Yuelin, so she wanted to give her daughter a heads-up.
Una is a staunch advocate of remaining single. She genuinely held Yan Zhuoyu when she was a child and almost became the little girl's godmother. Seeing the adult version of Yan Zhuoyu again evoked some strange feelings in her.
She took a jewelry box out of her bag: "You are more decisive than your mother. Take it easy and proceed slowly."
"This is a gift I originally planned to give you for your seventh birthday, but Yan Shuting returned it. I haven't found a chance to send it back all these years, so it's fate that we've met again now."
Una then switched to Chinese, her tone somewhat peculiar: "To borrow the words your mother once gave me, I wish you a bright future and peace and joy."
"I also wish Sister Una great fortune and immense success."
Yan Zhuoyu smiled and hugged her, then added each other's contact information.

In fact, filming for the eleventh season of Ashes had already begun. It was only when Major met Yan Zhuoyu by chance at that banquet that he had the idea to have the writers reintegrate the Nightingale's storyline.
The later stages will mainly focus on filming the character of Nightingale, along with voice recording, and filming is expected to wrap up in mid-January.
As Christmas approached, Yan Zhuoyu spent more than ten days on set, gradually getting to know everyone.
Christmas is very important abroad, and director Major gave the crew a half-day off.
Yan Zhuoyu was busy packing her personal belongings, preparing to return to the hotel.
Una noticed the brooch he had given her on her clothes and invited her with a smile, "Would you like to come to my house for Christmas?"
Yan Zhuoyu slung her small handbag over her shoulder and smiled, "Next time, Sister Una. I have important plans tonight. I was so busy the past few days that I didn't even have time to eat wontons on the Winter Solstice. I plan to make up for it tonight."
Una leaned closer to her, with a gossipy expression like someone watching their daughter date, and asked in a low voice, "Eating with your little white wolf?"
