After I died, they cried in the live studio

Meanwhile, Sang Jiyue was still unaware that her crime had been exposed. She sat in the living room, watching the online attacks on Sang Shuwan continue, feeling secretly proud. Suddenly, the doorbell rang urgently.

As soon as Sang Jiuyue entered the office, she was keenly aware of the strange atmosphere. Usually at this time, the office is filled with the busy typing and low conversations of colleagues, but at this moment, there is a strange silence. Her eyes quickly swept to her workstation. The familiar computer screen was flashing non-stop. On the screen, the strange green code was like a surging tide, rolling and jumping wildly, as if it was a malicious mockery from the dark world.

"What's going on?" Sang Jiuyue couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice, with obvious panic in her voice. She hurried forward and reached out to shut down the computer, but when she clicked the mouse, there was no response, and the keyboard keys seemed to be cast under a spell, no matter how hard she hit, there was no response. Her heart began to beat wildly uncontrollably, and a strong sense of foreboding, like a thick haze, quickly enveloped her heart.

At this moment, her cell phone suddenly rang, breaking the suffocating silence. Sang Jiuyue hurriedly took out her cell phone, only to see an emergency notice from the company's technical department: "Attention all employees, the company's network has been attacked by hackers from unknown sources. Please stop using your office computer immediately and wait for further instructions." Looking at this message, Sang Jiuyue's hands trembled slightly uncontrollably. She knew very well that this was by no means an ordinary network attack. It was most likely related to her secretly using the company computer to log in to slander Sang Shuwan's blog.

Sure enough, not long after, the office door was pushed open, and Sang Shuwan and several colleagues strode in. Sang Shuwan's eyes were like a sharp blade, falling directly on Sang Jiuyue, and there was a sharpness in his eyes, as if he could see through all her thoughts.

"Sang Jiuyue, shouldn't you explain it to everyone?" Although Sang Shuwan's voice was not loud, it carried an unquestionable momentum, and it sounded particularly clear in this quiet office.

Sang Jiuyue pretended to be calm, a puzzled look appeared on her face, and she said innocently, "What do you want to explain? I really don't understand what you mean."

Another colleague stepped forward with a sneer of sarcasm on his face, and said mercilessly: "Stop pretending. You used the company computer to log into the blog that slandered Shu Wan, and the address has long been exposed. The hacker attack just now was done by professionals we hired to find out who is behind these small actions."

Hearing this, Sang Jiuyue's face turned pale instantly, her lips began to tremble slightly, but her throat seemed to be choked by something, and she couldn't say a word. She never thought that her carefully planned and self-perfected plan would be so easily discovered, as if she was a hunter who carefully set a trap in the dark, but suddenly found that she was the prey who fell into the trap.

Sang Shuwan walked forward step by step and stood in front of Sang Jiuyue. His eyes were calm but full of deep disappointment. He said slowly, "I have always regarded you as a colleague and even wanted to help you at work, but I didn't expect that you would stab me in the back."

Sang Jiuyue lowered her head in panic, not daring to look directly into Sang Shuwan's eyes. Her voice was as small as a mosquito's hum: "I... I was just confused for a moment, bewildered by a ghost."

"I was confused for a moment?" Sang Shuwan smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Do you know how much damage those slanderous words have caused me? They have had a huge negative impact on my work, life, and even my mental state."

The office fell into a dead silence, and everyone's eyes were focused on Sang Jiuyue, like a heavy shackle, pressing her so hard that she couldn't breathe. She felt her face burning, as if she had been slapped hard several times, and her heart was full of regret and panic, but at this time she also understood that the mistake she had made was probably irreversible, just like spilled water, it could never be taken back.

Under the gaze of everyone, Sang Jiuyue felt that every second was extremely long. Her mind was blank, and she only wanted to quickly escape from this place that made her extremely embarrassed and awkward. Finally, as if she had made up her mind, she suddenly raised her head, ignored everyone's gaze, turned around and walked quickly to her desk, hurriedly packed up her things, and stuffed documents, notebooks, and cosmetics into her bag.

After packing up her things, Sang Jiuyue hurried to the door. When she passed by the window, she subconsciously glanced downstairs. This glance made her steps stop suddenly and she froze in place. Downstairs was already surrounded by densely packed reporters and bustling crowds of people watching the excitement. Among the crowd, standing in the most conspicuous position was Sang Shuwan. Sang Shuwan was wearing bright clothes and was particularly eye-catching in the crowd. She was talking to the reporters with a confident and calm smile on her face, which formed a sharp contrast with the embarrassed Sang Jiuyue at the moment.

Seeing this scene, Sang Jiuyue felt dizzy, her legs went weak, and she almost couldn't stand. She never thought that things would develop to such a point. Not only was she exposed on the spot, but she was also surrounded by the media and the public, with no way out. Her heart was filled with fear and despair, and there was only one thought in her mind: she must leave here immediately, the sooner the better.

Just when Sang Jiuyue was panicking and didn't know what to do, her cell phone suddenly rang, startling her. She took out her cell phone tremblingly and saw that it was a call from her former agent, Mr. Qi. She felt like she had grabbed a life-saving straw and quickly pressed the answer button.

"Hello, Mr. Qi..." Sang Jiuyue's voice was tearful and full of helplessness.

"Xiao Sang, don't panic. I already know about your situation. Go to the back door of the company right now. I'll be waiting for you there." President Qi's voice was low and steady, which gave Sang Jiuyue a little comfort in this chaotic moment.

Sang Jiuyue didn't have time to think about it. She hung up the phone, clutched her bag tightly, carefully avoided the crowd, and walked towards the back door of the company. Along the way, she lowered her head, not daring to look anyone in the eye, for fear of being recognized, and silently prayed in her heart not to be discovered.

Finally, Sang Jiuyue arrived at the back door of the company. She looked around and saw Mr. Qi standing next to a black car, looking around anxiously. When he saw Sang Jiuyue, Mr. Qi waved and signaled her to come over quickly.

Sang Jiuyue ran over and got in the car. As soon as she sat down, President Qi started the car and drove away from the company quickly. The car slowly crossed the street. Sang Jiuyue looked through the car window at the still bustling crowd and flashing lights outside, feeling mixed emotions.

"You, how could you be so careless!" Mr. Qi couldn't help complaining while driving, "How could you be discovered? You are always like this, always causing trouble instead of helping others."

Sang Jiuyue lowered her head, not daring to say a word, feeling guilty. She knew that Mr. Qi was right, and that she had indeed made a big mistake this time, which not only harmed herself, but also might bring trouble to Mr. Qi and the company.

"It's no use talking about this now." Mr. Qi sighed and continued, "We have to go abroad right now to avoid the media's attention. Once the media finds out, our company's image may be ruined."

Sang Jiuyue nodded, her voice choking with sobs: "Boss Qi, I know I was wrong. I really got you into trouble this time."

President Qi glanced at her, his eyes filled with both blame and helplessness: "Forget it, it has already happened, we can only think of a way to solve it. Think carefully about what to do next."

The car sped along the road, the scenery on both sides passed by quickly, but Sang Jiuyue had no mood to appreciate it. She leaned back in her seat, closed her eyes, and the scene in the office just now kept appearing in her mind, and she felt regretful. She used to be a star on the stage, shining brightly and having countless fans, but now, because of her jealousy and impulsiveness, she ended up in such an embarrassing situation. Her life was like a roller coaster, taking a sharp turn down.

Sang Jiuyue recalled that when she first entered the entertainment industry, she was full of passion for acting and vision for the future, so she worked hard to learn acting skills and participated in various auditions. At that time, she was full of vigor and vitality. Every time she stood on the stage, she could feel the enthusiasm and love of the audience. The feeling of being sought after made her intoxicated.

Later, with the appearance of Sang Shuwan, everything changed. With her excellent acting skills and unique temperament, Sang Shuwan quickly became popular and snatched away a lot of resources and attention that originally belonged to Sang Jiuyue. Seeing Sang Shuwan becoming more and more popular, Sang Jiuyue gradually began to feel jealous. This seed continued to grow in her heart, and eventually made her lose her mind and make the wrong decision.

The car drove for a long time and finally arrived at the airport. Mr. Qi had already arranged everything. The two of them passed the security check smoothly and boarded the plane to a foreign country. Sitting on the plane, Sang Jiuyue looked at the city gradually going away outside the window, feeling a lot of emotions in her heart. She knew that this escape was not only to avoid the accusations of the media and the public, but also to give herself a chance to re-examine herself.

On the plane, Sang Jiuyue fell into deep thought. She began to reflect on her behavior and realized that her jealousy and narrow-mindedness not only hurt others, but also ruined her own future. She thought of the fans who had supported her, and her heart was filled with guilt. She secretly vowed that after this matter was over, she must apologize to Sang Shuwan and make up for the mistakes she had made.

A few hours later, the plane landed in a foreign land. Sang Jiuyue and Mr. Qi walked out of the airport, breathing the unfamiliar air and looking at the unfamiliar environment around them. They felt a sense of relief and confusion. They found a remote hotel to stay in and began their long life of hiding.

In the hotel, Sang Jiuyue lived cautiously every day, not daring to go out for fear of being recognized. She could only learn about the domestic situation through TV and the Internet every day. She was in great pain when she saw the overwhelming negative news about herself on the Internet. She knew that her acting career might have been completely ruined, and it would be difficult to stand up again.

However, Sang Jiuyue did not give up. During this period of hiding, she began to re-examine her life and think about what she really wanted. She remembered her love for acting when she was a child, which was a pure love without any utilitarianism or distractions. She decided that after this matter was over, she must regain that love and make up for the mistakes she had made with her own practical actions.

As the days passed, Sang Jiuyue tried to adjust her mentality in a foreign country. She began to learn new knowledge, improve her acting skills, and prepare for a comeback in the future. Mr. Qi also encouraged her and helped her contact some friends in the industry to see if there was any chance to start over.

In that remote hotel room abroad, the heavy curtains were drawn tightly, isolating the light and noise from the outside world, leaving only a dim and depressing atmosphere inside the room. Sang Jiuyue curled up on the sofa, staring at the floor with empty eyes, and the coffee in her hand had long lost its heat. Mr. Qi sat beside her, frowning, tapping the table with his fingers from time to time.

"Xiao Sang, we have to think carefully about what went wrong before." Mr. Qi's voice broke the silence, and it was particularly clear in the silent room.

Sang Jiuyue raised her head and smiled bitterly: "Where else could it be? Every time I compete with Sang Shuwan, I have never won. Be it resources or popularity, I am far behind her." When Sang Jiuyue mentioned Sang Shuwan, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes.

Mr. Qi sighed, leaned forward, and looked at Sang Jiuyue seriously: "Tell me, you are so persistent in competing with her, is it to avenge her for stealing your limelight, or is it simply vanity?"

Sang Jiuyue was silent. She lowered her head, her hands unconsciously tugging at the corners of her clothes. After a long while, she whispered, "Nothing. It's just pure anger and jealousy. Seeing her have everything while I am losing everything I once had step by step, it feels so painful." As she spoke, her eyes reddened slightly.

Mr. Qi stood up, walked to the window, opened the curtains a little, and let a ray of sunlight in, shining on Sang Jiuyue. "Now that we know the root cause, we have to find a way to solve it. If you keep blindly competing with her and playing tricks on her, you will never be able to turn things around in your life."

Sang Jiuyue bit her lip, her eyes revealing a hint of determination: "Boss Qi, you are right, I can't go on like this. I want to start over, but how should I do it?"

President Qi turned around, looked at Sang Jiuyue, and said earnestly: "The core of your development path is to improve yourself. Think about it, you had acting skills and good looks before, weren't you popular? What you need to do now is to find your original self, or even surpass the past."

Sang Jiuyue nodded thoughtfully: "I understand. Instead of wasting time to slander her, it is better to spend time and energy on improving her acting skills and polishing her work."

Mr. Qi walked back to the sofa and sat down, then continued, "Yes, it's not just about acting. You also need to improve your inner self-cultivation, broaden your knowledge, and cultivate a unique temperament. These are the keys to attracting audiences and resources."

Sang Jiuyue sat up straight, a glimmer of hope in her eyes: "Boss Qi, where do we start?"

Mr. Qi took out a notebook from his bag and opened it. It was filled with various plans and contact information. "I have contacted some acting teachers abroad. They are very good at acting training. Next, you will learn from them systematically, from basic acting skills to character creation, and you need to polish them again."

Sang Jiuyue looked at the notebook, and a warm feeling surged in her heart: "Mr. Qi, thank you. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what I would do." Mr. Qi patted Sang Jiuyue on the shoulder: "Don't say that. We have been through ups and downs together. As long as you are determined, I will definitely help you stand up again. In addition to learning acting, you should also read more, understand different cultures and ideas, and enrich your inner world. This will be very helpful for you to shape your role."

From that day on, Sang Jiuyue started the arduous road of self-improvement. Every morning, she would get up early and follow the online acting teacher to practice basic skills, from breathing control to body language, and practice every detail repeatedly. In the morning and afternoon, she immersed herself in acting theory and practice courses, analyzed classic works, and tried different roles. In the evening, when others were relaxing and entertaining, Sang Jiuyue sat at her desk, reading various books, from literary classics to philosophical thoughts, constantly absorbing the nutrients of knowledge.

During the learning process, Sang Jiuyue also encountered many difficulties. Sometimes, she would cry when she couldn't master a performance skill; sometimes, she would feel extremely bored and tired when reading those obscure books. But every time she wanted to give up, she would think of her past glory and her current desolation, and Sang Shuwan's confident smile, which became her motivation to persevere.

As time went by, Sang Jiuyue could clearly feel her changes. Her acting skills became more and more sophisticated, and her understanding and interpretation of the role became more profound; her temperament also changed unconsciously, becoming more calm and restrained. Mr. Qi felt very pleased when he saw Sang Jiuyue's transformation.

"Xiao Sang, you did a great job." One day, after watching Sang Jiuyue's performance practice, Mr. Qi praised her sincerely, "I believe that when you return to China and appear in front of the public again, you will definitely make everyone's eyes light up."

Sang Jiuyue smiled, with confidence shining in her eyes: "Mr. Qi, I believe it too. This time, I am not competing with Sang Shuwan, but to become a better self."

During her time abroad, Sang Jiuyue has made further progress on the path of self-improvement. She is looking forward to the day when she returns to China, and looks forward to standing on the stage again with a new attitude and writing her own glorious chapter.

As the days passed, Sang Jiuyue devoted herself to learning and self-improvement, like a seed quietly accumulating strength in the dark. As she became more and more proficient in her acting skills, she was no longer satisfied with simple imitation and routines, and began to try to explore the deep emotions and humanity of the characters. Every practice was a challenge and breakthrough for herself.

In an acting class, the teacher asked her to interpret a woman in a midlife crisis. Sang Jiuyue was confused at first, after all, she was still young and the age gap between her and the character was large. But she did not back down. She consulted a lot of information, watched documentaries, and even communicated with people around her who had gone through similar stages to feel the confusion and unwillingness of life. When she performed in class, the struggle and helplessness revealed in her eyes and the slight tremor in her body language moved her classmates and teachers. The teacher commented on her: "You are no longer acting, but have truly become this role. This is an interpretation with your heart and soul."

As her acting skills improved, Sang Jiuyue's mentality became more peaceful. She no longer regarded Sang Shuwan as an opponent, but as a driving force to motivate herself to move forward. The anger and jealousy that followed her like a shadow had long been left behind, replaced by a pure love and persistence for the performing arts.

Mr. Qi was actively planning her future development. He used his connections in the industry to get in touch with some domestic film and television production companies and introduce them to Sang Jiuyue's transformation and growth. Although most companies still had concerns about Sang Jiuyue's past, a few showed some interest and were willing to give her an audition opportunity after she returned to China.

Finally, after studying abroad for a year, Sang Jiuyue decided to return home. When the plane landed on the familiar land, she felt nervous and expectant. She knew that what awaited her might still be doubts and challenges, but she was no longer afraid.

After returning to China, Sang Jiuyue temporarily lived in Mr. Qi's apartment and began to prepare for the upcoming audition. She repeatedly read the script, conducted in-depth analysis of each role, and designed unique performance details. At the same time, she also actively participated in some small performance activities to exercise her expressiveness in front of the public and gradually regained her confidence on the stage.

At a small gathering in the industry, Sang Jiuyue unexpectedly met Sang Shuwan. Their eyes met, and there seemed to be a subtle tension in the air. Sang Shuwan was the first to break the silence and said with a smile: "Long time no see, I heard that you studied abroad, it seems that you have gained a lot." Sang Jiuyue also smiled and responded: "Yes, after going through so much, I understand a lot. I hope you don't take the past things to heart." Sang Shuwan nodded: "It's all in the past, I am also looking forward to seeing your new work."

This encounter made Sang Jiuyue more determined in her belief. Not long after, she had an important audition opportunity, for the second female lead in a big-budget TV series. This role was complex and challenging, but Sang Jiuyue was not afraid at all. Her performance at the audition was amazing, showing the inner world of the character vividly. The director and producer were deeply moved by her acting skills and decided to give her the role on the spot.

As the TV series was filmed, Sang Jiuyue devoted herself to the role. The filming process was not easy, and she often faced high-intensity work and pressure, but she always maintained a positive attitude. She got along well with the actors and staff of the crew, and everyone praised her professionalism and acting skills.

After the TV series was broadcast, it quickly caused a sensation. Sang Jiuyue won the love and recognition of the audience with her outstanding performance, and various awards and honors came one after another. She finally stood at the pinnacle of her acting career again, and this time, she relied on her own strength and hard work.

At an awards ceremony, Sang Jiuyue gave a speech: "I once lost my way and fell into jealousy and darkness. But in the process of growth, I learned to focus on myself and improve myself. I want to thank those setbacks, which made me stronger; I also want to thank Mr. Qi who has always supported me, and every audience. In the future, I will continue to work hard and repay everyone with better works."

There was thunderous applause from the audience and tears glistened in Sang Jiuyue's eyes. She knew that she had finally completed the counterattack from the bottom to the top and started a new chapter in her life.

Night fell over this bustling city, and the lights were on. In the living room of Sang Shuwan's luxury apartment in the city center, the warm yellow light was softly sprinkled in every corner, making the whole space warm and cozy. Sang Shuwan lazily leaned on the soft sofa, her long black hair casually scattered on her shoulders, and her fair face looked more delicate under the light. The screen of the tablet in her hand was on, pushing out an entertainment news-"Sang Jiuyue made a strong comeback, her acting skills in the new drama were praised, and she threatened to return to the peak."

Sang Shuwan's eyes accidentally swept across the news, and a subtle fluctuation flashed across her originally calm eyes. Then, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a hint of a mocking smile, as if to say how ridiculous all this was. "Here you go again, you're really persistent." Sang Shuwan shook her head slightly, her eyes full of disapproval. Her thoughts involuntarily drifted back to the past, the days when Sang Jiuyue did whatever it took to suppress her, one by one, like a movie, clearly emerged in her mind. Maliciously slanderous anonymous blogs, secretly intercepted advertising endorsements, deliberately spread false rumors... When Sang Shuwan thought of these, she felt helpless and funny, as if Sang Jiuyue was not competing, but performing a childish prank.

"Revenge? What does she think of this? Is it just a child's play?" Sang Shuwan muttered softly, her tone full of disdain. In her opinion, the entertainment industry is a place where strength and works speak for themselves, but Sang Jiuyue always seems to want to take shortcuts and use those unpresentable means to gain attention, which is really short-sighted. She sat up straight, put the tablet on the coffee table beside her, crossed her arms, and fell into deeper thinking.

In Sang Shuwan's view, competition in the entertainment industry is cruel but fair. Every actor has the opportunity to stand out with his or her own efforts and talents, and to be loved and recognized by the audience. As for herself, she has come a long way by training hard day after day and carefully considering each role. Every work is the result of her hard work. From a small supporting role when she first entered the entertainment industry to a first-line star who has attracted much attention today, only she knows the hardships involved. She practiced a move hundreds of times, carefully studied the background and psychology of the character for a line, and turned down various social engagements to better interpret the role, devoting herself to the study of the script and the shaping of the character.

As for Sang Jiuyue, she always tries to achieve her goals by some crooked ways, but ignores the most fundamental thing - her own strength. Sang Shuwan recalled that in order to snatch the role of the leading actress, Sang Jiuyue bribed the crew members and tampered with the audition results. As a result, she was criticized many times by the director because of her poor acting skills during the filming process. In the end, she was forcibly replaced by the investors and became a laughing stock in the industry. "With her condition, what can she do even if she makes a comeback? Without real skills, she will be beaten back to her original form sooner or later." Sang Shuwan thought silently in her heart. She knew very well that the competition in the entertainment industry was extremely cruel, and the audience's eyes were becoming more and more picky. Without solid acting skills and excellent works, it was impossible to gain a foothold in this circle for a long time.

Just as Sang Shuwan was immersed in her own thoughts, there was a sound of keys turning in the door of the apartment. She turned around and saw a tall and handsome man walking in. He was Sang Shuwan's husband Jiang Cimu. Jiang Cimu was a well-known entrepreneur, young and promising, and elegant. He and Sang Shuwan met at a charity dinner. They fell in love at first sight and soon fell in love, and finally entered the palace of marriage.

"Honey, I'm back." Jiang Cimu said as he put his briefcase on the cabinet beside him, then walked quickly to Sang Shuwan and kissed her on the forehead. He noticed the thoughtful look on Sang Shuwan's face and asked with concern, "What's wrong? You seem to be worried."

Sang Shuwan raised her head and looked into Jiang Cimu's gentle eyes. The worries in her heart seemed to be relieved instantly. She smiled and said, "Nothing, I just found the news about Sang Jiuyue's comeback a little ridiculous."

Jiang Ci Mu sat down next to Sang Shuwan, held her hand gently, and said, "Don't worry about these little things. What happens to her has nothing to do with us. You, just have a good rest and don't think too much." His voice was low and gentle, like a warm spring breeze, blowing at Sang Shuwan's heart.

Sang Shuwan leaned on Jiang Cimu's shoulder, feeling the warmth coming from him, her heart filled with happiness and peace of mind. "I know, I just can't help but think about it. She's always like this, constantly tossing and turning, and I don't know when she will understand that strength is the most important thing."

Jiang Cimu gently stroked Sang Shuwan's hair and said, "It doesn't matter whether she understands or not. What matters is that you are happy. You have done a great job. Every work you produce is so outstanding, and the audience can see it. What you should do most now is to relax and not put too much pressure on yourself."

Sang Shuwan nodded and said, "Well, it's great to have you here. Actually, I also know that I shouldn't waste my time paying attention to her affairs. I still have a lot of things to do. I'm also reading the script for the next play. It's a very challenging role."

Jiang Cimu smiled and said, "That's good. I believe you can interpret this role perfectly. However, you must remember to rest more after work. Health is the most important thing."

Sang Shuwan raised her head, looked at Jiang Cimu, her eyes full of love, and said, "Don't worry, I will. With you caring about me so much, how could I not take good care of myself?"

The two smiled at each other, and the living room was filled with a warm and sweet atmosphere. With Jiang Cimu's company, Sang Shuwan gradually forgot the troubles brought by Sang Jiuyue, and devoted herself to the beautiful vision of future life and work. She knew that no matter what difficulties she encountered, as long as Jiang Cimu was by her side, she would have enough courage to face and meet every challenge in life. And Sang Jiuyue's troubles were just a small episode in her life after all, and could not affect her pace to move forward.

In the following days, with the support of Jiang Cimu, Sang Shuwan devoted herself to the preparation of the new play. She got up early every day, read the script carefully, and repeatedly communicated with the director and screenwriter about the details of the role. Jiang Cimu tried his best to spend time with Sang Shuwan in addition to his busy work. He would make a cup of fragrant coffee for Sang Shuwan when she was tired; he would listen to her patiently and give his suggestions when she encountered difficulties; he would accompany her to watch movies and go shopping to relax when she was under a lot of pressure.

With Jiang Cimu's care and encouragement, Sang Shuwan's understanding of the new role became deeper and deeper, and her performance became more and more handy. At this time, although Sang Jiuyue gained temporary attention with her new drama, as the plot progressed, her shortcomings in acting gradually exposed, and the audience's evaluation became worse and worse. Faced with this situation, Sang Jiuyue began to fall into anxiety and confusion. She didn't understand why she worked so hard but still couldn't get the recognition of the audience.

However, Sang Shuwan has been getting more and more stable on her acting career. After the new drama was broadcast, it quickly became a hot topic with its wonderful plot and the outstanding performances of the actors. Sang Shuwan also proved her strength again with this role and won numerous praises and awards. At the award ceremony, Sang Shuwan held the trophy in her hand with tears of excitement in her eyes. When she gave her speech, she especially thanked her husband Jiang Cimu: "When I encountered difficulties and setbacks, he was always by my side, giving me support and encouragement. He made me believe that as long as I stick to my dreams and work hard to improve myself, I will be able to succeed. I love him and thank him for everything he has done for me."

Jiang Cimu, who was in the audience, looked at Sang Shuwan, who was radiant on the stage, with his eyes full of pride and love. He knew that Sang Shuwan's success was hard-won, and he would always be by her side to witness every glorious moment of hers. And after experiencing this failure, Sang Jiuyue finally began to reflect on her behavior. She realized that if she wanted to gain a foothold in the entertainment industry, she could not rely on temporary hype and means, but on real strength and hard work. So, she decided to let go of the obsession of the past, start over, and work hard to improve her acting skills, hoping that one day she would be truly recognized by the audience.

The dusk was like a veil, gently draped over the shoulders of the city. The lights were turned on, and the bustling streets gradually became lively. The filming site of Sang Shuwan's crew was still busy. She had just finished a scene with strong emotions. Her cheeks were still slightly flushed because of the character's sadness and joy. Sweat slid down her temples, wetting a few strands of hair.

"Cut! That's all for today, everyone has worked hard!" The director's voice rang out on the set, and Sang Shuwan's tense nerves slowly relaxed, and she breathed out a tired but satisfied breath. She dragged her slightly heavy steps towards the rest area, and the assistant hurriedly handed her a towel and water. She took a sip and moistened her dry throat.

When Sang Shuwan packed up and walked out of the studio, he immediately saw the familiar black car parked quietly by the roadside. Jiang Cimu, wearing a well-tailored suit, stood tall beside the car, holding a large bouquet of gorgeous red roses in his hands, and the rich fragrance of the flowers filled the air. The warm yellow street lights cast a soft light, outlining a warm halo for him. He had a gentle smile on his face, and only Sang Shuwan's figure was in his eyes.

"Honey, it's time to get off work!" Jiang Cimu waved at her from a distance, his voice full of doting. Sang Shuwan raised the corners of her mouth and walked towards him quickly. Along the way, she could hear the envious whispers of the surrounding staff.

"Why are you here and bring flowers? They are so beautiful." Sang Shuwan walked up to Jiang Cimu, her eyes flashing with surprise and love. She gently took the bouquet and took a deep breath of the intoxicating fragrance.

"I know you have a lot of scenes today, so you must be exhausted now. I wanted to pick you up from get off work and give you a surprise." Jiang Cimu reached out and gently smoothed the hair by her ears, saying softly. His fingers touched Sang Shuwan's cheek, bringing a hint of warmth, dispelling her fatigue of the day.

Sang Shuwan leaned on Jiang Cimu's shoulder, feeling the familiar breath on him, and said softly: "With you here, I really don't feel tired at all. Today's scene really exhausted me. My emotions were always at a high point, and I felt like my whole body was being drained."

Jiang Ci Mu patted her back gently and comforted her, "I knew you would give it your all. You work so hard and every role you play is so brilliant. It hurts me to see you. Let's go, I'll take you to eat something delicious and reward you." As he said that, he opened the car door and helped Sang Shuwan get in.

The car started slowly and drove on the busy street. The car was filled with the scent of roses and soft music flowed in the air. Sang Shuwan turned his head to look at Jiang Cimu who was concentrating on driving beside him, and his heart was full of happiness and peace of mind. (End of this chapter)
