The moment she stepped into the office, she sensed an unusually gloomy atmosphere.
For as long as she'd worked for Han Zhifan, she'd rarely ever seen Han Zhifan get angry. After hearing her coworkers describe his mood, the secretary instinctively wanted to hide far away from Han Zhifan. However, she had to report to him, so all she could do was summon the courage to walk over to Han Zhifan's office and knock on his door.
"Come in."
After the secretary heard Han Zhifan's voice from inside, she took a deep breath while facing the wooden door and carefully pushed it open.
Han Zhifan was sitting behind the desk, typing on his computer.
Flustered, the secretary took a few steps into the office, keeping a distance from Han Zhifan. "Mr. Han, I did what you requested. Miss Cheng's operation is over and the baby has been aborted. I already took her back home."
Han Zhifan looked as though he hadn't heard what she said and didn't stop typing in the slightest.
After the secretary finished her report, she held her breath for a while, but seeing as Han Zhifan didn't look like he was going to say something, she added, "Mr. Han, if there's nothing else, I'll get back to work now."
With that, the secretary continued to wait for a while. Seeing as Han Zhifan continued to type away and was completely ignoring her, she quickly turned around and bolted out of Han Zhifan's office.
After shutting the door, the secretary took just two steps towards her desk when she heard "Bam" from behind her.
Her entire body shook as she quickly turned her head and heard another "Bang" from behind the wooden door.
Thereafter, the entire office heard the crashing sounds of things being thrown around...
The third day after Ji Yi and He Jichen bumped into each other at The Golden Lounge was the day the production crew was back at work filming the second half of "Jiuchong Palace."
While in the same city, these two well-acquainted people didn't contact each other, so they could only rely on fate to accidentally bump into each other. One was in the South and the other was in the North, so naturally, it was even more unlikely for them to meet.
It was said that the days were hard to bear, and that was the truth.
Ji Yi missed He Jichen every day and night; her eyes would turn red at the thought of him. There was even a period of time when she dreamt of He Jichen every day.
But no matter how hard her days were, the sun rose every day as usual and night fell on time. Time still went on, each second at a time.
Without even noticing, May passed and June arrived. As the heat rose day by day, the shooting of "Jiuchong Palace" slowly drew to an end.
As it was a historical drama, all the actors were wrapped in layers of clothing which made filming very hard. Most of the time, after a scene was shot, their inner clothes would be drenched.
With three days left before the end of production, Ji Yi's eyelid twitched endlessly when she woke up that day.
She wasn't superstitious, but after her eyelid twitched, her heart felt worried for some reason.
Ji Yi felt like something was going to happen, but she wasn't sure what it could be. It wasn't until after she finished lunch and headed back to grab her phone that was charging in her hotel room that she accidentally overheard a few of the high execs from the studio and learned why she felt so uneasy all afternoon.
