Chapter 169 Supporting His Wife
Meng Weiyuan: "I'll give Lao Ling a call."

Yuska couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Meng Weiyuan pointed at her from a distance without saying anything, then took out his phone and called Ling Yumang in front of You Sijia.

Ling Yumang was somewhat surprised to receive Meng Weiyuan's call when he returned from his morning exercise.

"Old Meng? Is something the matter?"

At this time of day, Meng Weiyuan rarely calls him unless it's something important.

Meng Weiyuan coughed softly, "Well, I have something to ask you."

"Hmm? Just tell me."

“It’s related to Wei Ning,” Meng Weiyuan said.

Ling Yumang: "...What happened to her this time?"

Even though they were separated by a phone, Yu Sijia could almost picture Ling Yumang's expression on the other end of the line when she heard the voice coming from the phone; it probably wasn't a pleasant look.

She was somewhat surprised, because she had previously seen Ling Yumang show great concern for Wei Ning, even to the point that his own younger sister had to give way to him.

Now that I hear this, it seems there's still some conflict between the two?
Meng Weiyuan had already given a brief account of the request that You Sijia had received, "...That's about it. If you're going to take action, the Hu family might not be happy about it."

There's a saying that you should consider the owner before beating a dog; it's a crude but true saying.

“You’re overthinking it.” Ling Yumang sighed on the other end of the phone. “I never intended to help her get revenge or anything. Wei Ning called me before, wanting me to handle Zhou Qichun’s matter, but I didn’t agree.”

Yusijia mouthed "Wow." She didn't mean to kick someone when they're down, but she wasn't some saint either. Hearing that Wei Ning had "failed miserably" at Ling Yumang's hands, she was surprised but also felt a little happy. Was that too much to ask?
“She knew what it was like inside the industry before she entered it, but she still went behind her family’s back. She’s very determined, and we can’t control her. Besides, I listened to what Shuangyue told me the other day. She’s not really family to us, so why should I interfere so much? Why should I try to control everything she does and think about her?” Ling Yumang said.

Meng Weiyuan was a little at a loss for words. He hadn't intended to discuss Wei Ning's matter in such depth with Ling Yumang. Who knew that once the other party opened his mouth, he would change his usual behavior and become a chatterbox, just like Wang Xingzhi.

"...Is your sister-in-law still with you?" Ling Yumang suddenly asked again.

Meng Weiyuan hummed in agreement.

"I'm sorry," Ling Yumang's voice came from the phone. "Wei Ning caused you trouble last time, and it seems like I'll have to trouble you again this time. I'm really sorry."

Yu Sijia hadn't expected things to develop this way. She chuckled dryly, "That's Wei Ning's business. We have no grudges between us, so there's no need for me to apologize."

Besides, she had already retaliated on the spot for any wrongs Wei Ning had done to her. There was no need for her to keep holding a grudge against someone like that.

After hearing this, Ling Yumang seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, "After all, I also made some mistakes before."

Meng Weiyuan picked up his phone, turned off the speakerphone, and said that everything had been said, so why did he need You Sijia and Ling Yumang to chat anymore? He told the person on the other end of the line, "Let's meet another day," and then ended the call neatly.

Yu Sijia propped her head up with her hand, thinking that Ling Yumang's words implied he wanted to sever all ties with Wei Ning from now on. Was it really just because of the hot spring incident? She thought it unlikely. After all, even if you have a cat or dog at home for ten or twenty years, you develop an attachment to it. Wei Ning made one mistake; it shouldn't have disappointed Ling Yumang this much.

"What are you thinking about?" Meng Weiyuan asked when he saw Yousijia resting her chin on her hand, lost in thought.

Yustia shook her head. "It's nothing."

She couldn't be bothered to ask Meng Weiyuan about such things; he wasn't a gossip, and she figured it would be pointless to ask anyway.

"Next month is July, are you going to the autumn/winter fashion shows in Paris? I happen to be going there on some business, I can keep you company," Meng Weiyuan said. He knew that before marrying him, You Sijia loved to attend various fashion shows every year. He bought Tenglong to please her, but unexpectedly, it made You Sijia so busy that she didn't have much time to go out and have fun.

So even though he was very busy in July, he planned to take some time to spend with Yusjia while on business trips.

You can't expect someone to become even more boring after marrying you, can you?

Sure enough, Yuska's eyes lit up when she heard this.

"Really? You have time?"

She had received the invitation long ago, but considering her work and the fact that Jiang Lingyu, who used to go to shows with her, probably couldn't go out, she gradually gave up on the idea.

But now that Meng Weiyuan has brought it up, You Sijia immediately became interested.

Meng Weiyuan: "I will definitely have time to go to the show with you."

Yusjia's eyes lit up. "It's a deal!" She held out her hand to Meng Weiyuan.

Meng Weiyuan: "..."

Such a childish thing...

"Snapped--"

Meng Weiyuan gave You Sijia a high five.

After having breakfast, Yusjia took her drawing board to the art studio. Her comics were still being serialized, and the update frequency was relatively stable.

By July, filming for "Glory" was more than halfway complete and was progressing smoothly overall.

Yuska wasn't too worried about the ratings, after all, Harai Ichi was the original author, and he was almost always on set throughout the entire filming process.

The TV series was prepared in a hurry, but its quality is by no means inferior.

Whenever a novel or comic is adapted into a film or television series, the book fans and comic fans boycott it because they are worried about drastic changes and casting that doesn't fit the original characters.
However, for this casting, the production team found actors who were as close to the original comics as possible, and the makeup artists adjusted the actors' faces by comparing them to the characters in the comics.

As for the plot, with Harai Ichiro on set the whole time, there's nothing to worry about given the original author's love for his work.

Filming can be slow, Yusjia only made one request to the crew: that the quality be up to standard.

This was the first script she had selected for Tenglong Films, so naturally she had high expectations.

Yuska also hoped to make a good start.

Before leaving, Yu Sijia confirmed that there were no problems at the company that she needed to handle herself, and the next day she and Meng Weiyuan boarded a private plane to Paris.

Meng Weiyuan had to work on the plane, so You Sijia didn't bother her and instead curled up on the single massage sofa, scrolling through her phone.

The cast and crew of "Glory" have recently made a bit of a splash online. It all started because, since it's summer vacation now, some young fans went to the film studio to see their idols and unintentionally took photos of the "Glory" actors leaving their hotel.

Fans didn't recognize the actors in the production team, but they thought the costumes, props, and sets looked very high-quality, so they posted a couple of questions online.
