Chapter 265 – Who knows what those petty people hiding behind the scenes would do to the movie if they knew she was the producer? (3)

Since the start of filming, she communicated solely through phone calls with Ning Yang. Thinking about it now, she felt that as the producer of the movie, it was wrong of her to never step foot on the set and see the cast and crew at work.

“Didn’t you say that before the movie is in theaters...”

“I’ll be low-key when I go there. No one will know.”

Lu Beichuan fell silent. He hadn’t been free from anxiety during this time. He had the nagging feeling that Ye Zhen was too involved in Chaoxun Entertainment lately. Those reckless stars overtly and secretively behaved as if he was a dead man.

He solemnly looked at her. “I’ll go with you tomorrow.”

Ye Zhen raised her eyebrow and looked at him in surprise. “Why? Do you have nothing better to do?”

Lu Beichuan automatically ignored that paperwork that had piled up like a mountain on his work desk and calmly said, “There’s not much lately. Moreover, now that Lu Corporation’s acquisition of Chaoxun Entertainment has been sorted out, I should make an appearance and show my attitude.”

Having entered the entertainment industry, there was nothing more reassuring than seeing the big boss visiting the set and caring about the progress of the movie.

Ye Zhen briefly thought it over and also felt that it was feasible.

Going there with Lu Beichuan would not only conceal her role as the producer, it would also make it clear to Qinhua’s Riverside’s crew and Chaoxun Entertainment’s employees of Lu Beichuan’s determination and resoluteness to advance his company in the entertainment industry.

The next morning, after Ye Zhen was neatly dressed, she walked downstairs and saw Lu Beichuan at the door. He was dressed especially formal and handsome today in a suit and leather shoes. After seeing that Zhouzhou, the little winter melon, was standing next to him, she couldn’t keep calm anymore.

She looked at Zhouzhou and carefully probed, “We’re going out as a family?”

Lu Beichuan nodded. “Mom has to go out today to do something. Can you feel at ease with leaving Zhouzhou at home alone?”

“I asked Mom yesterday. She said she wasn’t busy today...”

Before she finished speaking, Mother Lu came downstairs. She was also fully dressed to go out with a number of jewelry on her. Beaming, she meaningfully looked at Lu Beichuan and then said to Ye Zhen, “Zhenzhen ah, I’m very sorry. Something came up. I won’t be back until later.”

Ye Zhen hastily said, “That’s fine. Go do your thing. Beichuan and I’ll just take Zhouzhou with us.”

“That’s good.” Mother Lu picked Zhouzhou up, gave him a goodbye kiss, and left.

Zhouzhou was a year and half old now. Under Ye Zhen’s strict teachings, he had learned to walk by now and with a great deal of effort, he could vaguely say a few words.

The little fellow didn’t even reach Lu Beichuan’s thigh. He had clasped his little hands on Lu Beichuan’s pants. He seemed unsteady on his feet as he eagerly stared at Ye Zhen with his big eyes. He didn’t speak and just looked at her as if he was deterred by something and didn’t dare to do anything rash.

Ye Zhen quickly picked up Zhouzhou and reproachfully looked at Lu Beichuan.

“Zhouzhou isn’t even two yet. He’s so young. Why didn’t you pick him up? Are you still his dad?”

It hadn’t been long since Zhouzhou had learned how to walk, and he would be unsteady after only a few steps. Lu Beichuan, this hard-hearted person, who knows how long he had left Zhouzhou standing next to him before she came downstairs.

The more time she spent with him, the more Ye Zhen discovered that tales of Lu Beichuan spoiling his son and giving him whatever he wanted in the novel were all fake!

Lu Beichuan had a heart of stone when it came to raising their son. When their son stumbled, he didn’t help him up and even ordered others to not help him. Zhouzhou had to stand up by himself. When Zhouzhou fell down or bumped into something, Lu Beichuan wouldn’t allow him to cry. He wouldn’t let others coax Zhouzhou either. Ye Zhen felt distressed whenever she saw this.

And yet, Lu Beichuan always used the same question to utterly defeat her protests; weren’t you the one that said we can’t spoil our son?
