"With White Ink around, I think this time working on the set will be particularly enjoyable," said Tan Wen. She would be collaborating with people she liked, and everyone had worked together before so they were familiar with each other. As for the main creators, Ye Yian, Fei Jun, Chen Xueru, and Peng Shuyao, she all liked them. Collaborating with these people would teach her a lot; they had more experience in the industry, and competing on screen would add to her knowledge in acting.

Ye Nemoe smiled slightly, "As long as you're happy."

"Are you unhappy that White Ink is taking this role" Tan Wen hesitated for a moment before asking suddenly.

Ye Nemoe frowned at Tan Wen and then smiled. "Why do you ask such a thing"

"You look like you're not very happy."

"I wouldn't be happy no matter who it was," Ye Nemoe said coolly, his dark eyes flashing with some shadow as if he had deliberated for a long time before saying this: "I don’t like you acting in plays."

When he spoke, there was no change in his tone or expression; he sounded the same as usual. But Tan Wen felt somewhat alarmed because she remembered what Lin Ning said to him several months ago: If you want to be with Ye Nemoe, leave the entertainment industry.

The gist of it was that this had always been her understanding—that Ye Nemoe harbored prejudice against actors and actresses.

In fact, Ye Feimo can't be blamed. He is the president of An Ning International and has been surrounded by so many artists in the past. His relationships were complicated, and many artists would resort to any means necessary to achieve their goals, often using themselves as bait to make deals with him. Being in this circle, whether he's dealing with someone from An Ning or anyone else in showbiz, everyone knows that Ye Feimo is like a king in the entertainment industry. Anyone, regardless of gender, would try to make deals with him when they get the chance. He’s used to it and has become numb to these advances.

Due to his past relationship with Han Bi, he never liked artists to begin with. After taking over An Ning himself, this dislike deepened into prejudice. Recently, Ye Feimo had been suppressing his temper, which she was aware of. He didn't like her acting, shooting advertisements, attending events, making public appearances, socializing for work, or coming home late.

Everything she did, he disapproved of.

To put it simply, he neither liked nor supported her career.

He was tolerating her, but she didn't know the limits of his patience.

As an artist, there would always be ambiguous rumors. She had been rumored to have relationships with Zhou Chengge, Chen Hang, and Fang Liucheng. Even after marriage, if she went out for a meal with friends, it could make headlines. If men were involved in these stories, the magazines would exaggerate them.

Seeing this made him very unhappy, but he was used to keeping his feelings inside. When she noticed that he was upset, she tried her best to spend time with him and avoid unnecessary social obligations.

Even so, she could feel Ye Feimo’s reluctance for her to continue in the entertainment industry.

But at the same time, he knew how much she loved acting and that it was a passion of hers. So while he disapproved, he also protected her in his own way, paving the road for her wherever possible, promising her freedom to do as she pleased.

He is so conflicted, and she is equally conflicted. Despite clearly enjoying acting and her career, she also doesn't want to upset Ye Feimo. Both sides are struggling to find a solution.

Ye Feimo casually held her hand as if nothing had happened, looking rather indifferent, "Nuwan, I was just talking casually; there's no need for you to look so sad. If it’s something you like doing, I won’t stop you."

"But you don't like it." Nuwan smiled faintly. It wasn't that he disliked it, but rather that he abhorred it. This was the biggest point of contention between them; they couldn't align their steps.

During the day, she was very busy and didn’t have time to think about these things. Sometimes when she came home, she would be so exhausted that she'd immediately fall asleep. As an artist, her schedule often turned night into day, making her life irregular. When workloads were heavy, her life became tense with no time to pay attention to such matters. Yet occasionally, seeing Ye Feimo’s deep eyes would make her feel afraid.

Could it be that after a long time of hating her career, he might also come to abhor her

This question she rarely dared to think about during the day would sometimes pop up when everything was quiet at night. She would immediately dismiss these thoughts, not daring to delve deeper. In terms of balancing her career and family life, she herself was very conflicted.

To give up on her family was impossible.

But to abandon her career was also out of the question.

Maintaining both might be feasible, but it required great wisdom. How to reconcile Ye Feimo’s abhorrence has always been a concern for Nuwan.

"Would you give up this job for me" Ye Feimo asked, his expression very serious, as if he were asking her to marry him.

Warmth was stunned; after a long while, she shook her head.

Ye Feimo had known it would be so and didn't say much more, "Then that's all right. If you like it, just continue."

"Why can't you change your view of artists" Warmth asked; this question had been bottled up inside her for a long time. Han Bi was the originator, but later on she realized that many people were not like this. "I know that the current environment is very bad, and many girls need opportunities to actively strive for something with their own conditions. I also understand that the entertainment industry is a mixed bag of good and bad elements; those who have been in it for a long time gradually lose themselves. Money and fame can corrupt someone's original character. Like Han Bi at the beginning, she was once an innocent and happy girl. But Feimo, not every woman is like this; my teacher Cheng Yu has come step by step with her own efforts, as well as Miss Xueru, who walked out of it step by step. Through ups and downs, she made it through. Why would you generalize everyone"

Ye Feimo's eyes narrowed dangerously, his displeasure evident; they occasionally had small disputes, but this was the first time arguing over career and ideals. Seeing him with a cold, unfeeling face, her heart felt chilly.

"Warmth," Ye Feimo said, "it’s just that because Cheng Yu came out step by step, if no one supported her, she wouldn’t have been able to make it. At the beginning of Chen Xueru's career, there was also someone supporting her from behind the scenes… and you…"

He suddenly stopped speaking, looking at Warmth; she had already turned pale.

"Warms, let’s not quarrel over this matter, okay" Ye Feimo stood up and held Warmth's hand; her fingertips were as cold as snow. Suddenly, he regretted talking about these things with Warmth. What was wrong with him

He shouldn't have said these things.t" Mo Chen happened to come up at that moment and heard the last sentence, smilingly asking Sen Sen. Sen Sen said, "Daddy, Mommy was originally planning to go buy handbags and jewelry. Let's accompany...
