Lin Xiwen rolled her eyes and said irritably, "Is that even a question? Your mother always sides with reason, not family. Even if Ye Jin hasn't helped our family that much, I can't just watch you cheat on me. If you really do cheat, just wait and see if I kick you out."
Su Chengjing couldn't help but feel a sense of relief. Fortunately, he had taken a different path in this life and hadn't encountered the lady who had saved him in his previous life. Otherwise, he might have been kicked out again after all his hard work to come back and being misunderstood as having only stayed in the Su Family for a few days.
Afterwards, they exchanged ideas, and Su Chengjing basically understood where Ye Jin had obtained that information.
His lips twitched. So they were living in a novel? Their whole family were villains, and Xie Haoyu was the novel's protagonist?
How ridiculous! Does that despicable Xie Haoyu deserve to be the male lead?
Their past lives were so tragic, and no matter how hard they tried, it was all in vain, simply because it was a predetermined ending arranged for them by a brainless novel.
Compared to Lin Xiwen and the others who only learned about their future fate from Ye Jin's inner thoughts, Su Chengjing had truly experienced the tragedy of his previous life, obviously felt it more deeply.
He clenched his fists involuntarily, his whole body radiating a fierce aura.
Lin Xiwen quickly noticed her son's unusual behavior. She patted Su Chengjing's back and comforted him, "Alright, nothing has happened yet, right? The plot has changed. What we need to do now is get our revenge."
Su Chengjing looked up at his mother. Yes, his mother was still alive in this life. All the misery had not happened. They could even return that pain to Xie Haoyu.
All of this was thanks to Ye Jin and her sudden inner voice; he seemed to understand why his mother had become so biased towards Ye Jin in just six months.
Chapter 36
Ye Jin was unaware of what had happened between the Su Family mother and son because of her, as she was busy preparing to meet with the author of " The Phoenix First Rises ".
Three days later, she and Huo Yun flew from City A to City B, located in the southwest of the motherland.
City B is a famous Hua Country.

Upon arriving in the capital, Ye Jin immediately smelled the lingering aroma of spicy and savory flavors in the air.
In an instant, her expectations for the trip rose a few points again. Even if they couldn't reach an agreement, she could still have a big meal with Huo Yun.
They met the author at a high-end hot pot restaurant. Although the taste was not quite as good as the old-fashioned hot pot restaurants, the ingredients were fresher, and the private rooms were more suitable for business meetings.
The author was clearly a punctual person; they had only been sitting for about ten minutes when a girl dressed plainly, wearing black-rimmed glasses, with a round face, and looking very quiet, entered the private room.
The original author's pen name is Lemon-Flavored Strawberry, while his real name is Song Miao.
After greeting everyone, she sat quietly without saying another word, showing no trace of her previous opposition to the film adaptation company and threats to sue them.
Ye Jin wasn't surprised by this. Most online novel authors are socially awkward in real life, but this doesn't stop them from being very active and assertive in places they are familiar with, such as the internet.
She introduced herself with a smile, "I'm Ye Jin, and this is my partner, Huo Yun. The script outline was sent to your email yesterday. Have you read it? Do you have any comments on the script?"
Song Miao had clearly already read the script outline. She nodded, "I've read it, it's very good, I don't have many comments."
Ye Jin is quite confident in the script. This adaptation basically follows the original work, and any changes are based on the needs of film and television production.
But hearing the original author's affirmation still made her happy; this most important step was finally over.
At the same time, she couldn't help but sigh inwardly, thinking that the original author was really naive. If it were her, she would have deliberately picked out some flaws to show that she was not to be trifled with, in order to gain her own interests.
However, since Song Miao was so straightforward, she didn't intend to take advantage of such an honest girl, and immediately said, "So what are your requirements for film and television production? Do you have any preferences for actors? Or would you like to participate in the screenwriting work? Or just do the final review? Please feel free to tell us, and we will definitely try our best to meet your needs. However, if the actors you want are too big names, we may not be able to negotiate with them."
After saying that, she blinked and gave a self-deprecating laugh, "To be honest, our company has only just been established, and we don't have many big-name resources at our disposal."
Seeing Ye Jin's candor, Song Miao Ye Jin's anxiety lessened considerably, and she smiled, "Ms. Ye, don't worry, I don't have any preference for celebrities. I don't care about their fame or status, as long as they fit the role."
"By the way, I saw your movie ' Kunlun Duel ' before. Although the character was different, the appearance was great, and your acting was excellent. I would be very happy if you wanted to play me."
Ye Jin was picking out a piece of tripe when she heard this and almost choked. Did they really not take her large-scale retirement announcement seriously?
She paused for a moment before saying, "You flatter me. My role was small before; my acting skills weren't good enough for a leading lady role!"
However, Huo Yun, who had been eating quietly, spoke up at this moment, "Why can't you hold your own? Haven't you seen the acting of some of those popular young actresses? Their makeup hasn't changed in years, and their acting is just pouting and acting cute. You're not the best, but you're not the worst either, okay? Besides, your current commercial value is comparable to many top-tier actresses, enough to support the investment for this film. So, are you interested in going back to the industry to act?"
Ye Jin:... Huo Yun hasn't given up on deceiving me into going back to the circle.
Ye Jin gritted her teeth and said, "I've already retired from the entertainment industry, so please don't bring up such an unlikely large sum of money again."
After saying that, she turned to Song Miao with a smile, "I also believe that the suitability of the role is more important than the actor's star power. Don't worry, we will definitely select the right actors."
