Chapter 83 Carrot and Stick

When Yan Ran came outside, she saw someone holding a bouquet of flowers and a pretty paper bag looking around. She walked over quickly: "Hello, I'm Yan Ran. Did you call me just now?"

"Yes, it was me." The man said quickly. When he handed the flowers and the bag to Yan Ran, he couldn't help but look at them a few more times and asked carefully, "I seem to have seen you on the Internet. Are you a celebrity?"

"No." Yan Ran smiled. The other party was obviously not a CP fan of her and Xu Rui.

When the man heard it, he scratched his head embarrassedly: "Oh, maybe I recognized it wrongly, sorry."

Yan Ran was in a good mood holding the pink snow mountain rose in her hand, and said generously: "Maybe I didn't recognize it wrongly. I have been on the show and now I am an unknown little director."

"Director, awesome!" The man ignored the previous adjective and couldn't help but exclaimed, then quickly said, "Ah, I won't bother you anymore, I wish you a happy life."

"Thank you."

After the other party left, Yan Ran picked up the bag and looked inside. She found two boxes of fine chocolates and several bags of rainbow candies, and a sweet smile appeared on her face.

"Yo yo yo yo, you smile so sweetly, there will be bees buzzing around you." Du Xiao had already followed and stared at her face and teased.

Yan Ran glanced at her and said, "I didn't see any buzzing bees, but I did find a buzzing sourpuss."

"What sourpuss?" Du Xiao was stunned for a moment, then shouted, "Who is sourpuss? Who is jealous of you? It's just nine roses. Do you believe that if I release the news of seeking a boyfriend, the high-quality men who send me roses can line up from here to the seventh ring road?"

"For your ability." Yan Ran put the flowers and the bag in one hand, and pinched Du Xiao's waist with the other hand, "Let's go, go back."

Du Xiao followed her, "Then I saw some chocolate, why don't you give me some?"

"No." Yan Ran took out a bag of rainbow candies from the bag and handed it to her, "This can be shared with you."

"Why are you so stingy now?"

"I've always been so stingy."

The two chatted and laughed, and went back to the set to eat. Seeing her holding a bouquet of flowers, Yu Yisheng was quite surprised, "What day is it today?"

"What day is it? I heard that she was in a bad mood, so the flowers were sent here." Du Xiao didn't say that Yan Ran took the initiative to ask for comfort, and the director's face had to be taken into consideration.

"Wow, you're so envious." Yu Yisheng didn't ask anymore, and he couldn't eat if he asked again.

The lunch break was not long, Yan Ran took a photo and sent it to Xu Rui, and then hurried to eat.

Except for a few actors who joined the group late, the others were quite familiar with Yan Ran. If it were usual, they would inevitably come over to tease her. Maybe it was because she had just lost her temper in the morning, which made people see her irritable side. Except for Yu Yisheng, everyone else ate quietly and didn't join in the fun.

Seeing the photos Yan Ran sent, Xu Rui asked: "Are you satisfied with my coaxing?"

Yan Ran picked up the phone and looked at it, the corners of her mouth curled up, and her left thumb quickly clicked on the nine-square keyboard, without delaying her right hand to eat: "Just barely."

"The standard is quite high."

"Is it not okay?" Yan Ran added a proud expression.

"Yes." Xu Rui replied with a doting expression.

This time Du Xiao didn't peek, because she couldn't stand seeing Yan Ran's expression. If she peeked at the content again, she felt that her pH and blood sugar levels might be in danger.

"I still have to discuss some things with the crew later, let's not talk about it for now. I haven't eaten the chocolate yet, but I know it must be very sweet, and I feel much better! (`)" Yan Ran sent a heart expression.

"Well, do your best in the afternoon."

After chatting with Xu Rui, Yan Ran was in a good mood. She packed up her lunch box and said to Du Xiao: "Let's find a barbecue restaurant nearby tonight and book a private room. It's best to watch online programs."

"Huh?" Du Xiao was puzzled.

Yan Ran whispered: "Let's finish work early today. After all, we are seniors. Let's treat the juniors to a meal."

Du Xiao understood and smiled: "You are good at winning people's hearts with carrots and sticks."

"Stop talking nonsense and go quickly." Yan Ran drove her away and went to the crew to discuss filming issues with the cameraman.

After less than an hour of rest, they started working again. The filming in the afternoon was relatively smooth. Although it still did not catch up with the planned progress, Yan Ran did not intend to work overtime to catch up with the progress and reduce costs.

Seeing that it was already 7pm, and the filming had been going on for ten hours without taking a lunch break, Yan Ran decisively called a halt: "Let's stop here today, we can call it a day, thank you for your hard work, um... Zou Xianzheng, you guys, follow me tonight."

"Ah?" Several people were a little confused, and began to mutter in their hearts, wondering if she was going to take them back to the Film Academy and complain to their instructors.

Fortunately, Yan Ran's next sentence dispelled their thoughts: "I'll treat you to barbecue tonight. To be honest, as a senior sister, I really don't take good care of you. On the set, we will talk about the matter. I won't show mercy when I get angry, but I hope you don't bring work matters outside the set."

"No, no." Several people said hurriedly. These people were not the kind of people who thought deeply. After hearing what Yan Ran said, they felt a little embarrassed about their previous behavior.

Yan Ran didn't give them a chance to refuse: "The restaurant has been booked, don't refuse. I don't think you are socially anxious. You don't even dare to eat with senior sisters. What will you do in the future?"

When several people heard this, they immediately retorted: "Who said you don't dare!"

At this time, Du Xiao came over: "The car has been booked, let's go."

Zou Xianzheng asked: "Is senior sister Du Xiao going too?"

Du Xiao raised her eyebrows: "What do you mean, you don't want me to go?"

Zou Xianzheng waved his hand quickly: "No, no."

Yan Ran was a little amused: "It seems that you are quite afraid of her?"

"Afraid of me?" Du Xiao was surprised and pointed at Yan Ran, "You saw her get angry today, she is not much more scary than me."

Yan Ran snorted coldly: "Don't come on, I rarely get angry, unlike you who do everything in a hurry and aggressively."

At this point, Zou Xianzheng and the others became bolder and spoke one after another.

"It's mainly because the legend left by Senior Sister Du Xiao in school is too fierce."

"Yes, I have always wanted to ask, Senior Sister Du Xiao, is it true that you are fighting for your roommate and chasing the scumbag in school with two pots of boiling water?"

Du Xiao raised his head proudly: "What's false about this, haven't you seen the video?"

Several people looked at each other. They had seen the video, but it was a pity that it was at night, and most of them were shot from upstairs. They saw a crazy woman carrying a kettle and chasing a man whizzing by, and they really couldn't see who it was.

Emm... The word "crazy woman" must not be said in front of the senior.

After the legend was confirmed, someone nudged Zou Xianzheng with his elbow: "Are you scared? You dare to lose your temper with Director Yan, aren't you afraid of being splashed with boiling water?"

Zou Xianzheng smiled bitterly: "I was wrong, Director Yan, I apologize to you again, I was wrong."
