After a rest of about ten minutes, the performance resumed filming.

It was probably Lu Ze's words that stimulated Mu Chen. He resumed filming, and the first scene was successfully completed in one take.

The following few scenes were completed quite smoothly, and even Mu Chen himself was taken aback. It was the first time he had ever completed shooting so smoothly.

After finishing a day of shooting, Mu Chen returned to the hotel. Perhaps it was because of the scandal six months ago and the reminder from Lu Ze today that he became more cautious. Every time he entered or left the elevator, he would carefully check the floor.

After returning to the room, taking a shower and changing into fresh clothes, Muzhen called Zhangran to go downstairs to the restaurant for dinner together.

To ensure the safety of the artists, the security facilities in the film and television city hotel are even tighter. Especially when the crew occupies the entire hotel, outsiders are strictly prohibited from entering.

Therefore, there is no need to disguise oneself and worry about encountering fans while dining in the restaurant at the hotel, not even being able to have a peaceful meal.

He didn't reserve a private room but instead chose a seat by the window in the lobby. After ordering their meal, he leaned back on the sofa and gazed outside.

At night, the film and television city, with its grand imitation ancient buildings and the absence of excessive modern decoration, gives people a sense of time and space being distorted, as if they were in a different world.

Just as Mu Chen was enjoying the night view outside the window, her cell phone rang.

Upon seeing the caller ID, Mu Yang realized that it was Mu Chen calling. Ever since being opposed by Mu Chen on New Year's Eve because of Mu Yang's liking for men, Mu Yang had not taken the initiative to call him.

He busily answered the phone, "Hello."

The phone was answered quickly, but once the call connected, Mu Chen couldn't find the right words to say.

"Brother, have you been busy lately?" The voice of Muyang on the other end of the phone didn't sound as indifferent as it used to be in the past few days.

Hmm, the new drama started filming today, so I'll probably be busy for the next two or three months. Is there something going on? The two brothers are currently in a cold war, so it's unusual for Muyang to call him calmly at this time. There must be something he wants to discuss with him.

"Brother, have you forgotten? Mom's birthday is next Saturday. I won't be able to go back home because of something happening at school. I was hoping that if you could go back, you could help me bring a gift for Mom." It made Muyang angry that his older brother opposed his liking for men, but after all, they were brothers, and his older brother had always been so good to him since they were young.

In Mu Yang's memory, their parents have always been very strict with their older brother. Mu Yang has always felt that because their older brother is the eldest, their parents' education towards him should be stricter, and their older brother has never complained. However, since their older brother started working and rarely came home, Mu Yang thought that there might be some misunderstanding between Mu Chen and their parents. Therefore, they wanted to take advantage of their mother's birthday to ease the relationship between them.

"Recently, I've been extremely busy, but I will still send the gift back." As they mentioned their mother's birthday, their solemn tone turned unexpectedly cold.

Brother, what exactly happened between you and our parents?" For Muyang, the reason why his older brother had left home had always been a puzzle. He was still in the third year of junior high when his brother left, busy with his studies and preparing for the high school entrance examination. He had no idea what had happened at home. When he came home after school, their parents would still be at home, chatting and laughing, while his brother was always alone.

When his older brother suddenly told him that he was leaving home to work in another city, he couldn't accept this news for a moment.

Afterwards, my older brother rarely returned home, to the point where he even had little time to call our parents. However, he would frequently stay in touch with him.

"I have no issues with my parents. There is neither dissatisfaction nor quarrels between us. You don't have to worry."

Whenever Mutaiyang asked, Muzhen would always answer like this.
