148: I'm seeing Yang Zi again!

"Not yet? How many years have you two been together?" Mother Yang immediately asked curiously upon hearing Yang Mi say no.

Yang Mi thought for a moment and said, "We've known each other for almost six years..."

Before she could finish, Mother Yang spoke up, "It's been six years and you're still not married?"

This left Yang Mi a bit dumbfounded; beside her, Chen Le was also completely dazed.

They had only known each other for six years, and had only been in a relationship for two or three years.

"Huh?" Yang Mi looked at her mother in confusion.

"What do you mean 'huh'? You've been together for six years and still aren't married. How long are you going to drag this out?" Mother Yang glared at Yang Mi and said.

"No, Mom, Old Chen and I have known each other for six years, but we've only been together for two or three. It hasn't been as long as you're saying," Yang Mi quickly explained.

"Two or three years is also a long time. I think it's best if you get married within the next year or two. You're not young anymore; you're almost twenty-five. How much longer are you going to wait? A bit longer and you'll be thirty."

Hearing Mother Yang's exaggerated claims, Yang Mi smiled helplessly.

"Alright, alright, we'll talk about it," Yang Mi nodded.

Chen Le didn't dare voice an opinion... Time passed quickly, and after staying in Yanjing for two days, Yang Mi took a flight back to continue filming.

Chen Le arrived at Beijing Film Academy, carrying local specialties he had brought from home.

He brought many local specialties, and of course, there was a portion for Dean Wang.

Carrying the specialties, he walked through the campus.

With the start of the semester approaching at Beijing Film Academy, many teachers had returned to prepare for the new term.

He arrived at Old Wang's office.

Dean Wang was busy working.

Seeing Chen Le, he was very surprised. "Chen Le, why are you back in Yanjing? Aren't you going to stay home a bit longer this year?"

Dean Wang knew Chen Le had taken Yang Mi home, but he hadn't expected him to return to Yanjing so soon.

"Yeah, Mi Mi had to come back for filming, so we came back early. Here, these are local specialties I brought from home. I specifically brought some for you," Chen Le said with a smile, handing the specialties to Dean Wang.

Seeing this, Dean Wang took them, a smile appearing on his face. "Not bad. The ones you brought last time were gone in less than a month. My wife has been thinking about them all year."

"Haha, Old Wang, if you like them, I can bring more for you when I go back," Chen Le laughed.

"No need for that. I wouldn't make you travel thousands of miles just for some food," Dean Wang quickly waved his hand.

Then, a curious smile suddenly appeared on his face as he asked, "By the way, Chen Le, now that you've gone back, is the wedding date set? I'm waiting to drink your wedding wine."

"Not yet, it's not that fast, but probably within the next two years," Chen Le said with a hint of helplessness.

"Alright then." Seeing this, Dean Wang didn't press the matter further.

"By the way, your new movie is starting production soon, right?" Dean Wang suddenly remembered and asked.

"Yeah, the directing team is all set up. We can start filming anytime," Chen Le nodded.

"That's good. I wish you a smooth start for your new movie and a triumphant year!" Dean Wang offered his blessings with a smile.

"Then thanks for the blessings, Old Wang. I won't disturb your work anymore. I'll head out now." After saying that, Chen Le turned and left.

After delivering the specialties, Chen Le walked out of the office building.

Chen Le checked the time; it was almost noon.

Passing by the Beijing Film Academy cafeteria, Chen Le suddenly felt a bit nostalgic for the taste of the food there.

Entering the cafeteria, since most people in the school were staff, the card system wasn't active, and people paid cash for their meals.

Chen Le walked over and ordered a few random dishes.

The cafeteria lady saw Chen Le and thought he looked familiar. A moment later, she recognized him.

"Are you Chen Le?" the lady asked with some surprise.

Hearing this, Chen Le was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Auntie, do you know me?" Chen Le asked.

"How could I not? You're a celebrity at school. Even the security guards and cleaners know you," the lady said with a laugh.

Hearing her words, Chen Le's face almost turned dark.

He hadn't expected to be recognized by the older staff.

After getting his food, Chen Le found an empty seat to eat.

While eating, Chen Le suddenly saw two familiar figures, a man and a woman.

They were getting food at the counter.

At this moment, Yang Zi was with Zhang Yishan.

She had come back to school today to visit Zhang Yishan, and since it was lunchtime, they had come over together.

After getting her food, Yang Zi turned around and immediately saw a figure facing her.

The person was eating, and he looked very familiar to her.

As Yang Zi watched, the person suddenly looked up.

Yang Zi recognized him instantly.

"Yishan, I see Senior Brother Chen Le!" Yang Zi patted Zhang Yishan beside her, her tone a bit hurried.

Hearing this, Zhang Yishan turned to look and saw Chen Le as well.

Carrying their trays, the two walked over to Chen Le.

"Senior Brother! It really is you! I didn't expect to run into you here!" Yang Zi's voice was filled with surprise.

She truly hadn't expected to encounter Chen Le here.

She had originally just wanted to find Zhang Yishan, but unexpectedly met Chen Le.

Beside her, Zhang Yishan felt a bit nervous seeing Chen Le; it was his first time seeing Chen Le in person.

Furthermore, Chen Le was his Senior Brother and a Great Director.

"Hello, Senior Brother!" Zhang Yishan said very respectfully, his whole demeanor quite stiff, standing perfectly upright like an elementary student meeting a teacher.

"Hello," Chen Le nodded with a smile.

"Yang Zi, why are you back at school? I thought you had already graduated?" Chen Le looked at Yang Zi and asked curiously.

"Senior Brother, I came back to visit Yishan," Yang Zi explained.

Chen Le nodded slightly.

Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan were childhood friends; they had acted together when they were young.

"Senior Brother, are you here for something?" Yang Zi asked curiously.

"I came back to see Dean Wang about something," Chen Le didn't say exactly why he was looking for Dean Wang, just giving a brief answer.

"I see. By the way, Senior Brother, I noticed it's been a long time since your last project. When are you filming your new one?" Yang Zi asked with a smile.

"My new project starts filming soon."

"Starting soon? Senior Brother, is there a role suitable for me in your new project? I really want to work with you." Yang Zi's eyes were full of anticipation.

However, Chen Le shook his head.

"The new one is still a comedy, and there's nothing suitable for you in it. But don't worry, if there's something suitable later, I'll definitely look for you."

"Is that so? Alright then. If there's something for me, you must contact me, Senior Brother," Yang Zi said with a hint of regret.

"I will," Chen Le nodded with a smile.
