CHAPTER 304: NEWFOUND LOVE

Today, Ye Feimo told her to not stop Wen Nuan when she comes to the office, and that she doesn’t need an appointment. She had a sharp eye and saw the wedding ring on Ye Feimo’s finger, which made her realize.

The title of "Mrs. Ye" was a test, and she hadn’t expected Wen Nuan to not object. Zhang Ling was shocked. She hadn’t expected the CEO to really be married. But she was Ye Feimo’s chief secretary, so she wouldn’t spread the word. The secretaries in the office had all seen his wedding ring and guessed that he was married, but they were not entirely sure since he never said anything.

Now, Zhang Ling was certain.

Ye Feimo put down his pen, a glint in his eye. Wen Nuan walked around with the lunch box and playfully gave him a flirtatious look. "Do I look good?"

He had bought the outfit for her, but she had never officially worn it. Today, she was considering what to wear and immediately fell in love with this outfit.

Ye Feimo nodded, giving a straightforward two-word evaluation. "It’s beautiful."

He sat down on the sofa, and Wen Nuan went over to massage his shoulders. Ye Feimo raised an eyebrow and beckoned to her with his finger. Wen Nuan leaned down. "What is it?"

Ye Feimo’s kiss landed on her lips, and Wen Nuan’s cheeks flushed with embarrassment.

"You’re going to an audition, why are you so dressed up?" Ye Feimo asked playfully. This outfit was quite fancy. He had watched Wen Nuan’s growth in the entertainment industry from the beginning.

She had gradually transformed from a pure and sweet girl next door into a dazzling star. Although she was not yet on par with the big names in Europe and America, she had changed a lot.

The woman she was now was a world away from the girl she used to be.

At least when she wasn’t talking and was all dressed up, standing quietly for a photo, you would clearly notice her transformation. But no matter how poised she seemed, the girl behind the spotlight hadn’t changed at all.

He was glad that Wen Nuan was able to maintain that innocence, and he would do his best to make sure she kept it.

"I didn’t dress up for them," Wen Nuan said, striking a pose and smiling. "I came to verify whether your taste is good enough."

The facts proved that it was very good.

Ye Feimo gave her a sidelong glance. "If my taste isn’t good enough, then your taste is considered unsophisticated."

"What’s wrong with unsophisticated? It’s honest."

Ye Feimo shook his head and chuckled without saying a word. "Mom’s cooking is delicious. You should learn more from her."

"I learned a lot at the beginning of the year. I’ll cook for you in the future." Wen Nuan smiled, confident in her cooking skills. Although it wasn’t as good as her mother’s, it was more than enough to satisfy Ye Feimo’s stomach. "I think in the future, we won’t need to cook. We can eat at your parents’ house on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and at my parents’ house on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. We can go on dates on Sundays. Isn’t that great?"

Ye Feimo paused, then said to her flatly, "That’s very considerate of you."

"Of course!" Wen Nuan said proudly. It was a great suggestion. Their parents would surely welcome them home for dinner. It would be lively and fun.

Ye Feimo couldn’t bear to burst her bubble. Wen Nuan’s parents would definitely be happy with that arrangement.

His father, however, might not be so willing.

Ye Ningyuan and his wife might not be moving back until the fall, and when they do, they’ll start traveling and won’t be home much. His father was the one who did the housework, and he would often take his mother out to eat. How could they cook every day?

Wen Nuan’s idea was too good to be true.

"Are you working overtime today?"

"Come find me at six, and we can go home together," Ye Feimo said, considering his schedule. "I have a meeting with Ou Beitang at Green Light Golf Course at two. I’ll be back at four, and after some more work, I should be done. You can come a little earlier if you want."

Wen Nuan nodded, then thought about it. "The *Liang Hongyu* auditions are today, so there will probably be a lot of people. I might not be able to come back so early."

"Don’t worry, Xiaojing will take care of it," Ye Feimo said. He had originally planned for Wen Nuan to participate in the auditions in a few days. It was only the first day, so there was no rush. However, many big-name actresses were auditioning today. All four top actresses of Anning International were participating, along with Chen Xueru, Zhuo Bingbing, and other artists from other management companies. Yesterday, many investors and managers with good relationships had called him, asking for a role for one of their actresses.

Anyone with an eye for the industry knew that the female lead of this film would definitely be from Anning International.

Anning International invested in every film, and the lead role would always be played by someone from their company. The smaller roles might be played by others.

Lin Ning was the most renowned and talented director in the country. His films were both critically acclaimed and commercially successful, and every artist wanted to be in one of his movies. However, the entertainment department director of Anning International, Gu Xiaobei, was a unique character.

The actors who starred in Lin Ning’s films did not have high salaries, and they were definitely less than half of their market value. Despite this, every artist wanted to be in his films and didn’t care about the pay.

Nowadays, an actor’s salary was not their only source of income, nor was it the most important.

Starring in one of Lin Ning’s films meant their fame would increase, and their income from advertisements, appearance fees, and endorsements would all be substantial. Gu Xiaobei always tried to keep the budget of Anning’s films as low as possible, and it worked very well.

He was a man born to be in this industry. Although he had a hot temper and was a tyrant, Ye Feimo continued to use him.

This time, *Liang Hongyu* was no exception. The budget for salaries was kept to a minimum, but the cast was star-studded, which was very impressive. Just with all these stars, the box office would be very good.

Today was the first day of auditions, and many big-name stars were coming to participate. Lin Ning had already let it slip that the male lead would be Hollywood superstar Ye Yan. The announcement video played this morning, causing a huge sensation.

Including Han Bi.

Cai Xiaojing heard that Linda would be bringing Han Bi to the auditions, so she had Wen Nuan participate, too, to avoid being overshadowed.

The focus of today’s auditions would definitely be on Han Bi and Anning’s four top actresses. Wen Nuan’s popularity was not on their level, so she would probably only get a small page of coverage today.

Cai Xiaojing wanted Han Bi to build up publicity for Wen Nuan.

Very few people knew that Wen Nuan was already set to be the female lead, not even Wen Nuan herself. Han Bi would certainly not know.

By having widespread coverage on Han Bi today and then announcing that Wen Nuan was the female lead, not Han Bi, the resulting attention and contrast would provide Wen Nuan with excellent exposure and popularity.

That was Cai Xiaojing’s goal.

It was also Ye Feimo’s initial goal.

He had never given Han Bi any direct information or misled her. He just let her believe she had a chance to be in the film, but he never gave her a clear answer. Han Bi was coming today with the intention of securing the role of Liang Hongyu.

She had no idea that the role was already taken.
