Chapter 1091: Chapter 1091 What Can You Help With?

The two of them stood there for a while longer when Yang Xiaoxi’s voice suddenly ca from afar. Shen Mianmian glanced over and then walked toward Yang Xiaoxi with a smile.

“Miss Shen.”

Zeng Yi suddenly called out to her.

“Hmm?”

Shen Mianmian raised an eyebrow. “Is there sothing else?”

Zeng Yi pursed his lips. “Miss Shen, if there’s anything you need help with in the future, just ask. I’ll readily oblige.”

Shen Mianmian laughed, “What do you think I could possibly need your help with? Or what could you actually help with?”

Zeng Yi: “…”

Such words, when spoken by others, might sound like they were looking down on soone weaker than them, but coming from Shen Mianmian, they seed casual, almost like a common inquiry that one simply couldn’t resent.

Watching Shen Mianmian’s retreating figure, Zeng Yi felt that she really wasn’t like the rumors said.

So said Shen Mianmian hid her scandals too well, but Zeng Yi truly believed she had none.

Others said Shen Mianmian was calculating and lucky, having been pregnant with He Nan’s child before he died, and that the He Family would soon have to change their surna to Shen. But Zeng Yi felt she wasn’t that type of person.

He always sensed a sort of lancholy in her eyes.

What could it an for a woman who lacked nothing but avoided relationships and still wasn’t happy?

There was only one answer: Shen Mianmian truly loved He Nan and had not yet moved on from his death.

In fact, if he were in Shen Mianmian’s shoes, he probably wouldn’t be able to move on either. He’d never t He Nan, but had read a lot about him—a truly outstanding man.

Just like Shen Mianmian, with no tabloid rumors.

It was just so unfortunate…

…

“Mummy.”

He Xiaobei let go of Yang Xiaoxi’s hand and threw herself directly into Shen Mianmian’s arms. Shen Mianmian picked up He Xiaobei. “Finished with school?”

“Mhmm.”

He Xiaobei nodded vigorously, her voice sweet, “I missed you so much!”

“Stop the sweet talk.” Yang Xiaoxi took He Xiaobei from Shen Mianmian’s arms. “Don’t ss up your mom’s makeup.”

After speaking, she looked at Shen Mianmian. “How much longer until you finish?”

“Just one more scene to go if everything goes smoothly—an hour at most.”

Yang Xiaoxi glanced at Zeng Yi, who wasn’t far off, and said with a mischievous smile, “Zeng Yi was staring at you just now, does he have ideas about you?”

Shen Mianmian rolled her eyes. “I’m not RMB.”

Yang Xiaoxi scoffed, “You’re more sought after than RMB.”

Before Shen Mianmian could reply, she continued, “Did you know Cheng Xining is also shooting nearby?”

“I know.”

Shen Mianmian nodded. “Their set is in the east courtyard.”

The two sets were just a few courtyards apart.

Cheng Xining had also entered the acting industry five years ago and quickly rose to fa. Unlike Shen Mianmian, Cheng Xining had a bad reputation and often took on bold roles.

“It’s a small world!” Yang Xiaoxi clenched her teeth. “I haven’t even settled the score with her for badmouthing you in front of the dia last ti. She thinks she’s all that because she bagged an old man, always stirring up trouble.”

Over the years, whenever there was a chance, Cheng Xining would subtly mock Shen Mianmian in front of the dia.

“Bagged an old man?” Shen Mianmian was slightly surprised. “She has a new boyfriend?”

In these five years, Cheng Xining had changed boyfriends eight or nine tis and had even been caught cheating by a famous director’s wife.
