Run, Best Actor!

"Welcome back, Mimi!"

When the "Tiny Times" crew saw Yang Mi return, Guo Jingming happily clapped.

Thank goodness, his movie's leading lady is finally back!

This was Guo Jingming's first time directing a screenplay adapted from his own novel, and he did his best to avoid ruining his reputation.

Everyone wanted to see him make a fool of himself, because he, a writer, a nobody selling his words, actually wanted to be a director!

Is he qualified?

However, those people forgot that although Guo Xiaosi had not completed his studies and did not receive a graduation certificate because he had taken a leave of absence to focus on novel writing, he had actually studied Film and Television Art Engineering at Shanghai University, which is a film and television-related major.

He is not a complete novice.

Therefore, Guo Jingming was determined to prove himself with his self-written and self-directed film, "Tiny Times"!

Unexpectedly, halfway through filming, the female lead suddenly took leave and left.

This made him feel immense pressure instantly.

Fortunately, Yang Mi only left for four days. She returned after visiting her friend in England, which put his mind at ease.

"Thank you, Director Guo and everyone! I'm so sorry, everyone has worked so hard these past few days!"

Yang Mi responded with a big smile, "I brought gifts for everyone, I hope you all like them."

"What gift is it?"

The outspoken Xie Yilin was the first to ask, "I hope it's not some kind of British cuisine!"

"Don't worry, I'd be too ashamed to bring that stuff back to China."

Yang Mi couldn't help but shudder at the thought of those terrible "foods" in England.

Out of curiosity, Yang Mi couldn't resist trying the famous English fish and chips while in England.

then……

After taking only one bite, Yang Mi, who was always well-mannered and never wasted food, broke her family's rules and threw the whole thing away.

Goodness, even Yang Mi, who has loved drinking Lao Yanjing Douzhi (a type of fermented mung bean juice) since childhood, couldn't resist that inhumanly delicious food.

That shop must have used old oil for frying, which caused the batter to be thick and absorbent.

The fish is not marinated and is only seasoned with a little salt, so the taste is extremely bland and fishy.

If the fries aren't cooked properly, they'll be soggy and taste like mashed potatoes.

Moreover, the most authentic fish and chips are wrapped directly in newspaper, and the smell of ink mixed with the fishy smell of fried fish is a very disgusting taste.

Anyway, Yang Mi would find it hard to accept that thing as a delicacy.

Indeed, it's true that England is often called a culinary desert.

The key point is that England, as a long-established capitalist empire and the former "empire on which the sun never sets," has truly fallen behind in this regard.

Gaul, England's old rival across the sea, is extremely sarcastic about this.

After all, French cuisine is world-renowned, and even the English word "restaurant" actually originates from French.

In French, "restaurant" originally meant "food that restores strength," especially a thick soup. The word comes from the French verb "restaurant," meaning "to restore, to invigorate," and its root can be traced back to the Latin word "restaurant," meaning "to rebuild, to restore."

In the mid-18th century, a merchant named Boulanger in Paris, Gaul, first used the word "restaurant" on his shop sign in 1765, specializing in this nourishing broth. He even quoted the Latin phrase "Venite ad me omnes qui stomacho laboratis, et ego vos restaurabo" (Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest), emphasizing the restorative effects of his soup.

As his business expanded, the menu gradually expanded from broth to include other dishes, and customers began dining directly at the restaurant instead of having a chef come to their homes. This new model of "fixed-location à la carte dining" gradually replaced the traditional "caterer" model. Because Boulanger's restaurant was famous for its soup dishes, people began to refer to these new types of dining establishments collectively as "restaurants."

Subsequently, this style of dining arose in Gaul and spread to Europe and the world. Eventually, the word "restaurant" entered English and other languages, becoming the common name for "restaurant" or "dining place".

"I brought a Burberry trench coat for everyone, all black, so please don't mind the color, I brought it back from England!"

Yang Mi smiled and said to the main cast and crew, "The clothing sizes I asked about before, the names are written on the boxes."

The clothes were also shipped by air, with extra money paid for express delivery, and then Sun Ting was asked to pick them up.

We've already rented a car to take them to the film set.

"Wow, Burberry, Mimi, you've gone to so much trouble!"

Guo Caijie thanked Yang Mi with emotion.

Guo Xiaosi, Xie Yilin, Guo Biting, and others did the same, and quickly thanked Yang Mi.

Burberry is one of the eight red blood brands, a top international luxury brand, and none of its products are cheap.

In reality, Yang Mi took leave due to personal matters, and it would have been fine for her to return and apologize.

But they actually bought them high-end clothes as a token of their appreciation; they really know how to treat people well.

Xie Yilin grinned and said, "Miss Yang, you've really gone all out this time!"

"Oh, we're all good friends, it's nothing!"

Yang Mi smiled and waved her hand.

She has made a lot of money in recent years, so she is very generous with her spending when it comes to interpersonal relationships.

Besides, these trench coats didn't actually cost much.

Because Liu Tai-le is currently Burberry's brand ambassador, he enjoys internal discount prices on various products from the brand.

This is the next endorsement she took after winning the IAAF Diamond League New York meet last year.

She was also the brand's first non-British spokesperson, which garnered widespread attention at the time.

Besides these trench coats, Yang Mi, as the official girlfriend, actually received even more.

The latest women's trench coats, bags, designer fragrances, all kinds of cosmetics... everything you could want.

Yang Mi truly enjoyed the privileges and happiness of being Liu Taile's girlfriend.

That was a level of treatment that Liu Kaiwei could never enjoy.

Don't call her materialistic.

Because this world is inherently material.

"Honey, um, what did I ask you before?"

Guo Biting suddenly asked, her eyes revealing a hopeful look.

"I'll definitely do as Sister Ting asks."

Yang Mi nodded. "Liu Taile's autographed poster is with your trench coat."

"Oh, thank you so much, Mimi!"

Guo Biting thanked her with a radiant smile.

"No way, Tingting, you're really a fan of Liu Taile?!"

Xie Yilin asked incredulously, "I thought you were joking before!"

"I've played soccer since I was little, and I really enjoy sports."

Guo Biting explained, "So I really like all the athletes who win glory for the country."

Especially Liu Taile, he helped our countrymen prove themselves in the men's 100-meter race, isn't it normal for me to be a fan of him?

Of course, the most important thing is that Liu Taile is handsome enough.

Otherwise, the actual Olympic champion title would be more prestigious, and Guo Biting should actually be a fan of Liu Xiang.

But now, she is indeed a fan of Liu Taile. The first time she met Yang Mi, she asked her to help her get a poster with Liu Taile's autograph.

Because everyone in the industry knows that Yang Mi and Liu Taile have a very close relationship.

Okay, so it's because Liu Taile didn't manage to win over Yang Mi before.

Guo Biting's feelings for Yang Mi are quite complicated.

Some were angry that he had previously rejected Liu Taile, thinking he was blind to Liu's talent;

Some were also grateful that she rejected Liu Taile, giving them, her devoted fans, a chance...

Okay, who says female celebrities don't follow their idols?

When she meets her true love, the "celebrity," she's no different from a fangirl.

Guo Biting, who is almost thirty, had such bright eyes when she saw the poster personally signed by Liu Taile that they were as bright as light bulbs!

Upon seeing this, Yang Mi frowned slightly.

She suddenly realized that as Liu Taile's girlfriend, she should also feel a sense of crisis.

Because some shameless bitches are really after her Xiao Le!
