Every detail about how each camera should shoot was made very clear, although it was just a matter of a few sentences, it took a long time, Ling Zhenfei felt it took a very long time.

Gu Tian finally called cut at this moment: "Not bad, very good, especially Ling Zhenfei. Even though this was your first time acting, your expression and tone were very spot on. Next, we'll shoot the scene where you resign and leave the company."

This scene was also very simple. Ling Zhenfei played the manager who was wronged, and in the end, could only resign himself. As he was about to leave, Li Yuetong came to see him off, with just a few simple words.

"Don't underestimate these few words; they really test one's emotional control. You need to have an emotion that's very sad but can't let the other party find out. Do you understand?"

Of course, Ling Zhenfei understood because he was very familiar with farewells. As people often saw him off, he had witnessed numerous partings, so he could understand and relate.

This time, his scene partner was Li Yuetong. Ling Zhenfei walked to the door, and Li Yuetong came to see him off. The two exchanged a few words at the door; it was just that simple.

When Ling Zhenfei started filming, he told Li Yuetong he would leave after finishing.

Though it was just a simple sentence, it fit perfectly with the situation of the two, as if Li Yuetong was truly saying goodbye to Ling Zhenfei.

Consequently, the shoot went very smoothly. Even Director Gu didn't give any prompts, and they successfully finished the scene. Li Yuetong's look of hope and unwillingness was captured very well.

"Cut, that's a wrap, not a single edit needed." After shooting, Director Gu gave a very good evaluation.

Ling Zhenfei walked over to Director Gu and said, "Director Gu, can I leave now? I have something to do."

Gu Tian chuckled and said, "Mr. Ling, you're truly a genius in acting; even these lines could be analyzed so accurately. Honestly, I've grown fond of you over the past couple of months. Why don't you switch careers and become an actor?"

Ling Zhenfei replied, "That's not possible; I have so many patients to treat, so I'll remain a doctor. Anyway, Director Gu, I'll take my leave now if there's nothing else."

Gu Tian said, "You can't leave just like that; I have many shots that haven't been filmed yet. You could sit down or walk around; I'll shoot more footage just in case we need it in the future."

The two happily chatted away, and Ling Zhenfei helped Director Gu shoot a lot of additional footage. Finally, after bidding farewell to Li Yuetong, he left the filming location.

By this time, it was already evening, and they hadn't realized how much time had been spent at the filming site.

Ling Zhenfei remembered his appointment with Si Mayang, so he gave Si Mayang a call. Si Mayang said he had already sent the address to Ling Zhenfei so that he could find him there.

Ling Zhenfei hailed a cab and headed straight to the location shown on the map, which happened to be in a bustling area, not far from the restaurant they dined at yesterday near the International Plaza.

The place seemed to be located between the Third Ring and Fourth Ring areas, which are considered prime locations where every inch of land is precious. It's impressive that Si Mayang owns a property here.

He quickly arrived at the place indicated on the map, a three-story building, a standalone structure currently bearing a sign that says "Era Restaurant."

Ling Zhenfei walked in and found the interior still in operation, with people dining inside, but the place was very sparse and quiet.

As soon as he walked in, he saw Si Mayang standing at the entrance of the hall waiting for him. Upon seeing Ling Zhenfei enter, Si Mayang hurried over.

Ling Zhenfei said to Si Mayang, "Brother Sima, it's peak dining time. How come the restaurant is so deserted?"

Si Mayang replied somewhat helplessly, "Originally, this restaurant was my investment and I didn't anticipate the business being so bleak, which is why I don't want to continue anymore."

Si Mayang led Ling Zhenfei on a tour of the restaurant, going through it from the first to the third floor.

Similar to Ling Zhenfei's Xi Shan Restaurant, here the first and second floors are the restaurant and the third floor is the employee dormitory and resting area.

Initially, Ling Zhenfei thought the place was quite good, but in this Era Restaurant, it felt different for some reason. He didn't know why but he felt it was somewhat wasted.

Especially the space on the third floor, they had made it rather dirty and disorganized, so Ling Zhenfei felt the third floor was simply wasted.

But since it's not his own restaurant, he couldn't say anything, he could only wait to slowly renovate it himself in the future.

After visiting everything, Ling Zhenfei was still very satisfied with this place. The location is very good, and the area is large. Now, in the state the restaurant is in, it's somewhat regrettable.

The two found a place to eat, in the best scenic room on the second floor.

After randomly ordering a few dishes, they were served promptly. Ling Zhenfei took a look at the dishes and after taking a bite, he put down his chopsticks—the dishes were truly terrible, yet people still came to eat here, it was unbelievable.

Si Mayang seemed unconcerned, happily eating away. Ling Zhenfei was speechless; someone could enjoy such food so much, he really didn't know what this owner was up to.

Ling Zhenfei said, "Brother Sima, the place is fine, I'm quite satisfied, but the business is really too dismal, it's simply unimaginable."

Si Mayang said, "It doesn't matter, I opened the restaurant just for fun. Now that I'm not interested anymore and Mr. Ling wants to try, I'll hand it over to you."

Ling Zhenfei replied, "That's really kind of you, but I can guarantee you that your investment here will definitely exceed your returns. You choosing the shares of this restaurant was incredibly wise."

Si Mayang laughed and said, "My people investigated many details of your Xi Shan Restaurant and saw such great reviews. The only complaints were about the high price.

But having high prices is fine; in the Capital City, the least thing people fear is high prices. Do well, and as a shareholder, it will all reflect positively on me, won't it?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "Don't worry, when we open, I'll invite you to the event, then everyone will know this Xi Shan Restaurant has your shares."

At this point, Si Mayang had a worried look on his face, prompting Ling Zhenfei to ask, "Brother Sima, is there something you're still worried about?"

Si Mayang said, "Actually, it's like this, just last night someone approached me and told me not to lease this restaurant for your use, also told me not to cooperate with you."

Ling Zhenfei thought for a moment and said, "Was it Ma Long?"

Si Mayang nodded and said, "Yes, it was Ma Long. He's very petty and never stops until he achieves his goals, so I worry he might cause trouble."

Ling Zhenfei said, "No problem, if he intends to stir trouble, then let him come. It's not like we're afraid of Ma Long."

Si Mayang said, "Although we say so, Ma Long is quite powerful, so we'd better be cautious."
