Full-time actor

Chapter 501 [66] Confidence given by the future son-in-law!
Paris France.

The filming site of "Escape Plan".

"I just came here to give my daughter a birthday present..."

Cheng Long, wearing a suit, stood in front of Liu Xiaoli at a loss, holding a speaker in his arms.

This was the birthday gift he gave to his "daughter".

What the two of them filmed was, of course, the scenes from "Taken"; at the beginning of the movie, retired agent Long's daughter Fei is celebrating her birthday, but Long is divorced, and his daughter went with his ex-wife, who has now remarried a rich man.

This wealthy stepfather was holding a grand ceremony for his daughter's 18th birthday. He invited many wealthy people, and the dragon seemed out of place in this environment.

Liu Xiaoli plays Long's ex-wife. She doesn't have many scenes and can be considered a guest role.

An Shaokang, who was sitting outside the set, felt uncomfortable watching this; it wasn’t because he was uncomfortable with his ex-wife filming with Cheng Long, but because of... the plot.

Movies reflect reality.

Her daughter in real life is about to turn 18. Will she be like Long?
An Shaokang was on leave today and came to the crew specially to visit his daughter. Seeing the scene she was filming, he was still deeply moved.

Looking at the foreigners coming and going around him, as well as the director and photographer on the set, An Shaokang could understand the embarrassment of the father role played by Cheng Long during the filming.

He is now just like the dragon in the play.

"In three months...Sissi will be 3 years old!"

"It's time to give her a birthday!"

Now that the relationship between father and daughter has eased, An Shaokang obviously wants to do something for her.

Drip!

The cell phone at my waist rang.

An Shaokang took it out and found that it was a text message from Chen Yu; the father-in-law and son-in-law seemed to have some tacit understanding, and the message sent by Chen Yu was also asking him about Liu Yifei's 18-year-old coming-of-age ceremony.

He walked aside and made a phone call directly.

"Hello, uncle!"

After the call was connected, Chen Yu addressed the person very politely.

"Well, I just happened to be thinking of Xixi's birthday. I'll celebrate it for her. From childhood to adulthood, I've never properly spent a birthday with her!"

"Uncle, can I tell you what I think?"

Of course Chen Yu knew An Shaokang’s guilt.

But he obviously didn't know that after watching the live filming, An Shaokang felt even more sorry for his daughter.

Chen Yu told An Shaokang about the plan he had prepared. An Shaokang was stunned: "Xiao Chen, aren't you making this... a little too high-profile?"

It wasn't that he was afraid of the grandeur of the State Guesthouse, but he was considering his daughter.

In the entertainment industry, it’s better to keep a low profile.

In fact, this was also what Chen Yu meant, which was why he sent a message to An Shaokang.

"So I asked my uncle for his advice!"

In fact, it was because of this incident that Chen Jingfei's company encountered a financial crisis after 06, and then began to decline. Who can say that there was no intervention from the state? !

You can seek leverage from your goddaughter, but all the motorcades for the six-nation talks will have to pass by the door of your banquet hall. Aren't you just courting death by deforming yourself?

And the most tragic thing is that the person who was invited to work in a certain cultural department was directly investigated after returning.

Many fans also know what happened afterwards, and there were rumors of shady dealings everywhere; coupled with Huayi’s manipulation, Liu Yifei encountered the biggest crisis in her life.

"A birthday, even if it's a coming-of-age ceremony for an 18-year-old, just make it memorable for her!"

"I know that the entertainment industry needs to maintain exposure, but I think you two don't need it, right?"

"As for the signing with the agency you mentioned, you can invite them to the scene for a banquet, and there is no need to invite reporters. This kind of thing will change its nature once it is exposed by the news..."

After An Shaokang's few words, Chen Yu understood.

"Okay uncle, I'll listen to you!"

"Give her a memorable coming-of-age ceremony. It doesn't need everyone in the world to be there to witness it. It's OK to have the whole family accompany her and invite some friends and teachers!"

"If your relationship needs to be exposed, you can just hold a press conference. There's no need to choose such a special day!"

"It's better to keep it low-key, even if it's exposed by reporters, than to take the initiative to hold a grand coming-of-age ceremony..."

Chen Yu agreed with this.

Inviting reporters to report and having them report secretly are completely different concepts; if you invite them to expose the news, it is obviously for hype and to attract traffic and eyeballs. Sony and Chen Jingfei in their previous lives needed this kind of popularity.

But in fact, being exposed in private can also achieve the same effect.

After chatting with Chen Yu for a while, An Shaokang hung up the phone; the two talked a lot about Liu Yifei's coming-of-age ceremony.

The final plan was quite consistent. They would hold a private party in Liu Yifei's new house, which was next to Chen Yu's. When the time came, they would make arrangements and find a corresponding birthday planning company. An Shaokang would arrange for some leaders of relevant departments to come over.

This is his circle of friends, and of course it is also meant to pave the way for his daughter.

As for the birthday expenses, as a father, of course he has to pay a little...the rest is up to Chen Yu to arrange himself.

"dad!"

Liu Yifei, who had just finished filming a scene, skipped to An Shaokang's side and took his hand. During the time she spent with Jiang Yilang, the relationship between Jiang Yilang and Jiang Wen warmed up. In fact, Liu Yifei also understood An Shaokang a lot.

"Is the filming finished?"

An Shaokang smiled at Liu Yifei, and Liu Yifei smiled cheerfully: "Of course not, we've just filmed the birthday scene!"

"We have to change the shooting location!"

"Oh!"

An Shaokang responded quietly, but subconsciously said, "Dad saw you taking the photo just now, it seems to be your 18-year-old coming-of-age ceremony?"

"Yeah, you stinky Chen Yu, you wrote a script like this and still said I can relate to it!"

"?"

An Shaokang was a little confused and asked, "This... this movie's script was written by Chen Yu?"

"..."

Liu Yifei secretly cried out "Oh no! Why did I let this be known to others?"

Wouldn't this make An Shaokang have feelings towards Chen Yu?

"Dad, he...he just wrote it for fun!"

"Don't think too much!"

Liu Yifei hurriedly tried to make amends for Chen Yu, but An Shaokang gave a bitter smile: "That's fine. Dad has really let you down over the years. Your 18th birthday is just a few months away, and I think I'll feel the same way as I did just now, and I'll feel really bad!"

"How could that be? I will definitely invite you. The script is just acting, it's not real!"

"Besides, my mom is divorced. Although my stepfather is nice to me, he is definitely not like what he just acted out..."

After Liu Yifei finished speaking, she acted like a spoiled child to An Shaokang, who then felt better. However, he was very curious about Chen Yu's script: "Can you tell me the general story of the movie you shot?"

If this kid Chen Yu was being realistic, An Shaokang wouldn't mind calling for help to hang him up and beat him up.

Fortunately, Liu Yifei talked about the story of "Peak Rescue" there. Hearing that Cheng Long's agent father rescued his abducted daughter in 96 hours at the risk of his life for her, An Shaokang was still deeply touched.

This kid Chen Yu writes pretty good scripts.

He still likes this story very much.

"It's really a mess here in Paris, be careful, and call dad if anything happens!"

"Although Dad is not as powerful as Cheng Long in the script, he will do his best. Dad has to find people in other countries, but in France, at least he can protect your safety, and he can find someone if anything happens!"

"I know, you're my secret agent dad too!"

Liu Yifei said the words that An Shaokang liked to hear, and An Shaokang laughed happily.

Looking at the unusually harmonious and warm scene between the father and daughter, Liu Xiaoli felt relieved; perhaps, it was a mistake to meet An Shaokang in the beginning, but she did not regret this marriage because they gave birth to such an outstanding daughter.

In the past, there was such hatred between the two that they would never talk to each other again, but now, Liu Xiaoli has obviously let it go.

Perhaps, this is her fate.

At noon, An Shaokang treated many people from the crew to a meal, and he and Liu Xiaoli reconciled their past grudges. In front of Liu Yifei, the two acted as qualified parents.

When Liu Yifei went to the bathroom, An Shaokang suddenly asked Liu Xiaoli, "Xiaoli, Xixi's 18th birthday is coming soon. How are you going to celebrate it for her?"

"Why, do you want to give it to her?"

Liu Xiaoli glanced at An Shaokang, and suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and smiled and said, "Did you recall the scene of the coming-of-age ceremony you watched this morning?"

This is very much like An Shao Kahn's style.

"Well, kind of!"

An Shaokang didn't hesitate and nodded directly: "I still feel guilty... for what I have done to you and her over the years--"

"okay!"

Liu Xiaoli didn't like to hear this, and said bluntly: "Xiao Chen will definitely give it to Xixi. If you really feel bad, come over together!"

Liu Xiaoli is also full of confidence now.

Given by my future son-in-law Chen Yu.

According to her understanding of Chen Yu, he remembered his birthday every year before, so he would definitely not forget his 18th birthday.

However, Xiao Chen’s birthday seems to be coming soon, and Xixi was talking to her about it a few days ago.

"He called me this morning!"

An Shaokang was talking secretly. Liu Xiaoli was about to ask when she saw Liu Yifei walking towards them. She hurriedly asked, "What about Xixi's birthday?"

"Ok!"

After An Shaokang finished speaking, Liu Yifei looked at his parents suspiciously and smiled a little.

It was the first time for her to see two people so close to each other, chatting happily together? !

Although she knew that it was impossible for the two of them to be together, she was still very happy to see them like this.

"Am I... am I here at the wrong time?"

Liu Yifei blinked, didn't even sit down, and pointed outside with a smile on her face: "Then I'll go?"

"What are you talking about!"

Liu Xiaoli glared at the damn girl fiercely, and An Shaokang smiled and shook his head. His daughter had a good personality and could even make jokes.

Not as dull as she had imagined.

"So what are you guys talking about?"

"If it's a whisper, forget it..."

After Liu Yifei sat down, she was still joking, but was hit by Liu Xiaoli directly, but surprisingly she didn't say anything. At this moment, Liu Yifei was a little confused, my God, could this be a second spring for my parents?
What about Aunt Cao?
Turtle, filming a scene here won't cause anything for my parents, right?

Liu Yifei felt that she had to share such gossip with Chen Yu later, because she felt that there was still affection between her parents.

"Don't be so idle all day long. I'm talking to your dad about serious matters!"

Liu Xiaoli still doesn’t know what this girl is thinking. She is really in love and dares to say anything!

"What's the matter? Can I listen to it?"

Liu Yifei was still insisting, but An Shaokang was more capable and coughed, "Your mother said I've aged a lot, and she's helping me with my gray hair!"

"is it?"

Why doesn't Liu Yifei believe it?
White hair?
Her father has a head full of white hair. Does he need to get closer to see it?
The more you explain, the worse it gets. Do you really think you are a child? Liu Yifei did not expose the two. Anyway, for her, it was a good thing that her parents were so close. It was just a pity for Aunt Cao, who might have to wear green clothes.

"It's all Xiao Chen's fault!"

Liu Xiaoli said something out of context, which instantly made Liu Yifei furious: "No, Mom, can you blame Chen Yu for this?"

Isn't this a bit unreasonable?
"If you don't blame him, who else can you blame?"

Liu Xiaoli said unhappily, if he hadn't talked to An Shaokang about his birthday on the phone, would she be so curious?

Can I just get up there?

The key point was that neither he nor Xixi's father could tell her, because they all knew that this was Chen Yu's birthday surprise for Liu Yifei. If they told it, both of them would be sinners.

This made Liu Xiaoli very depressed.

"Okay, okay, blame him!"

"This guy is really too much. He has a month's vacation and he didn't even come to the crew to check on them!"

Thinking of this, Liu Yifei became a little angry. Looking at the crystal necklace given by Chen Yu on her wrist, she couldn't help rubbing it a few times: "Tell your master that your sister Qian is very unhappy!"

"..."

Liu Xiaoli and An Shaokang looked at the childish Liu Yifei, glanced at each other, and smiled.

It was not until they returned to the crew and Liu Yifei continued filming that Liu Xiaoli finally asked what she had been holding back: "What did Xiao Chen say?"

"He called me this morning..."

An Shaokang repeated almost verbatim what Chen Yu had told him.

"I support your opinion on this matter!"

Liu Xiaoli agreed and said, "Calling the media at the State Guesthouse was too high-profile. Jingfei also said he wanted to celebrate properly, but I rejected him. He also contacted Sony and said he wanted to sign a record contract. I asked Xiaochen what he thought, and he didn't recommend Yifei to continue singing to avoid distraction!"

"Acting well is the real thing!"

It was the first time that Liu Xiaoli agreed with her ex-husband's words.

"Yes, Xiao Chen's suggestion is correct. Acting well is the real thing. Although Xixi is very famous in China now, I have seen many people online saying that she is not worthy of Xiao Chen. I think the main reason is that she has not won any acting awards..."

An Shaokang was very concerned about the news about his daughter.

Liu Xiaoli next to him sighed: "Yeah, I'm worried about this too. Many of Xiao Chen's female fans online curse him the most fiercely!"

"Forget it, let's just listen to Xiao Chen and arrange it at home. I'll secretly call him later and we can figure out how to do it together."

Liu Xiaoli made up her mind, while An Shaokang looked at Liu Yifei filming on the set and suddenly sighed like an old father: "In the blink of an eye, she has grown into a big girl!"
