Transmigrated as the Stepmother of a Rebellious Heir-Chapter 152 - 91 Endorsement
Chapter 152: Chapter 91 Endorsement
Fu Yang would not be able to leave the hospital until tomorrow, and after dinner, Shu Wan did not leave either, but continued to lean on the sofa and read the script.
The college entrance exams were over, and it was time for Shu Wan to return to the film crew. These days, Director Zhang had indirectly and directly asked several times.
When she was there, Director Zhang felt that Shu Wan had given him a lot of help, and it was only after she had been away for a while that he realized how significant her influence was.
She had a very unique centripetal force about her that would ever so subtly draw everyone around her, infecting them with her energy.
With Shu Wan gone these days, the entire film crew’s acting level and efficiency had significantly decreased.
While Shu Wan was replying to messages on one side, Fu Yang on the hospital bed glanced at her several times as if he wanted to say something but ultimately did not speak up.
It was not until Shu Wan took a blanket and prepared to lie down on the sofa to sleep that Fu Yang finally turned his head and coughed lightly, "I’m thirsty, could you bring me some hot water?"
Shu Wan opened her eyes, "Isn’t there water on the cabinet?"
"I want to drink something hot; there’s none left, go get some from outside."
Shu Wan uncovered the blanket and went out of the ward with the kettle.
By the time she returned, she found that the spot where she had been sleeping was now occupied by Fu Yang.
He lay on the sofa with his legs, too long for the couch, resting awkwardly on the armrest.
Seeing Shu Wan come in, Fu Yang glanced at her, "It’s roasting in here; I want to sleep here where I can feel the breeze by the window. Go sleep wherever you like."
Shu Wan’s gaze shifted slightly, very direct, "You’re concerned about me, don’t want me to sleep on the sofa?"
"How could that be!!!!!" Fu Yang raised his voice by an octave, his expression somewhat unnatural, "I’m sleeping here because it’s too hot on the bed. Don’t flatter yourself; me, concerned about you? You’re thinking too much."
Shu Wan’s lips curved slightly as she set the kettle down on the table and walked to the bedside.
She was willing to accept the goodwill of others, even in the current situation, with Fu Yang feeling unwell, sleeping on the bed would be more appropriate.
But she did not reject Fu Yang’s rare consideration.
She lay on the bed, resting her head on the soft pillow, and turned to look at Fu Yang, who covered half his head with the blanket, "Thanks."
Fu Yang suddenly flung the blanket off, "I already said it’s not because of you; otherwise, get down now, and I’ll go back to sleep on the bed."
"It’s too late," Shu Wan said with a hint of laughter in her tone, "I’m going to sleep, you should sleep early too."
"....."
Shu Wan had already fallen asleep, and Fu Yang, who had been clamoring to return to the bed, did not speak of it again.
The next day, Shu Wan was to return to the crew to film.
Before leaving, Shu Wan handed a set of real exam papers to Fu Yang, "You have nothing to do at home today, do a couple sets of this paper."
Fu Yang didn’t even look at it and refused outright, "I don’t want that, you’re really annoying, why act like a teacher and assign others homework."
Rejected, Shu Wan wasn’t upset; she bent slightly and made eye contact with Fu Yang, who was sitting on the sofa, "It’s alright, if you don’t want to do it, then let it be, I’ll be going now."
Fu Yang had thought Shu Wan would keep threatening him, but was stunned that she gave in so easily.
It wasn’t until Shu Wan had left the ward that Fu Yang came to his senses and glanced at the exam papers in front of him.
He subconsciously wanted to toss the papers aside, but as he picked them up, he remembered the look in Shu Wan’s eyes.
How should I describe it? Fu Yang had always felt that Shu Wan’s eyes were incredibly expressive. Just now, when she looked at him, there was that mix of concern, anticipation, and contentment, yet at the same time, tinged with a faint and barely noticeable disappointment.
It was as though, if he solved this problem for her, it would be something very important to Shu Wan.
Fu Yang subconsciously touched his earring and thought to himself, Shu Wan had given up her college entrance exams to take care of him.

Meanwhile, Shu Wan arrived at the set, and upon seeing her, Director Zhang’s face almost broke into folds with his smile.
"Ahh, Shu Wan, you’re finally here. Without you around these past days, the actors haven’t quite been in the right state."
"Director, the way you put it," Lin Man’s voice rose from the side as she walked over in costume, sizing up Shu Wan. "It’s as if we can’t function without Shu Wan."
Director Zhang was already accustomed to Lin Man’s sharp tongue and couldn’t be bothered with her right now. He turned to Shu Wan, "You go get makeup and change clothes first. We’ll resume shooting in a bit."
"Okay."
Shu Wan nodded and then headed to the dressing room.
Lin Man stood to the side, expecting that after Shu Wan finished speaking with the director, she would come over to counter her taunt. Little did she expect Shu Wan to completely ignore her, not even looking to strike up a conversation.
Lin Man was pissed. She stamped her foot lightly. Who does she think she is?!?!
Then, Lin Man followed Shu Wan into the dressing room.
Seeing Shu Wan start applying her makeup, Lin Man couldn’t help but cough twice.
Shu Wan still ignored her.
Lin Man coughed loudly twice more, but still, no one paid any attention. Finally, she couldn’t hold back, "Hey, don’t you have any manners? Don’t you know to greet your colleagues when you come back to set?"
"Do you want me to do your makeup?" Shu Wan asked as she tied her hair into a bun.
"I surely do not." Lin Man reflexively retorted. "I’m a top star. The best team does my makeup. Why would I need you? That’s hilarious. You really know how to give yourself too much credit. I—"
Before Lin Man could finish speaking, Shu Wan had already tied up her hair. She turned her head to look at Lin Man, "I still have ten minutes. If you want me to fix your makeup, come over quickly."
"..." Lin Man’s unfinished sentence got stuck in her throat.
She really wanted to refuse Shu Wan with dignity, but seeing Shu Wan’s face, which was even more stunning with the light makeup, Lin Man simply couldn’t voice the words "I don’t need you."
The next second, Lin Man found herself sitting in front of the mirror, her expression somewhat awkward, "Then help me with it. But if you don’t do a good job, I won’t let you get away with it."
Shu Wan didn’t respond. With a few simple strokes of a powder brush, she made Lin Man’s bone structure seem more harmonious with her facial features.
Then she gently outlined around Lin Man’s eyes with an eyeshadow pencil. Although the adjustments were slight, Lin Man appeared to come alive, even her widened eyes seemed extra playful and vibrant.
Lin Man was more than satisfied, her eyes couldn’t hide her joy, but she forced a composed demeanor, "Not bad, I guess. Since you put some effort into sucking up to me, I’ll begrudgingly bestow a resource upon you."
"What resource?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you get so eager when it comes to resources. I was right about you," Lin Man looked at Shu Wan with disdain, "but it’s just a magazine placement I don’t want, consider it a gift from me."
Five minutes later, Shu Wan forwarded the magazine opportunity that Lin Man mentioned to Wang Tian.
Wang Tian was thrilled at that moment, "Sis!! Your backer is a catch, so generous. This magazine is great! It’s really going to boost your fashion profile."
