Qin Wan's eyes flickered slightly.
Touching her nose, a smile spread across her cheeks as she said in the same tone, "Mr. Mu misunderstood, I was practicing my lines."
"Really?"
Mu Shaochen approached her.
His tall, straight figure stood beside her, looking at her in the mirror.
He seemed quite interested, curving his lips slightly, and asked, "What's the script called?"
"..."
Qin Wan gave him a look but didn't answer.
Mu Shaochen said, "Remember to send it to me as soon as you record it. I want to show my support."
"..."
Show your support my ass!
Isn't supporting it supposed to mean spending money after it's released?
Sending it right after recording is called support?
Is he an idiot, or am I?
"Hm?"
After waiting for a minute, he turned his head to look at her again, still waiting for her to mention the script's title.
Qin Wan had already finished dressing.
With a feigned smile, she said, "'Eternal Love,' I've decided to take it on. Next year, my audio drama and your White Moonlight TV show will be released together. It doesn't matter whether Mr. Mu shows support or not, just don't use your White Moonlight to suppress mine."
After speaking, she ignored Mu Shaochen's slightly sinking expression and walked out of the dressing room.

After breakfast, Mu Shaochen took Qin Wan to buy a gift for Grandma Mu.
He wouldn't let Zuo Zhan follow them, insisting on driving himself for reasons unknown.
She was stuffed into the passenger seat.
While Qin Wan buckled up, Mu Shaochen turned to her and asked, "Where do you want to go to buy the gift?"
Qin Wan fastened her seatbelt at a leisurely pace, then lifted her eyelids to look at Mu Shaochen's charming face, saying lightly, "Anywhere you want to buy is fine. You buy yours, and after that, just drive me back to my apartment."
Though Grandma Mu was well into her eighties, she was a delightful foodie.
Whatever she wanted to eat, she had to eat, and anyone who stood in her way would face her walking cane.
Qin Wan had once seen Grandma Mu chasing Mu Shaochen with a cane, only stopping when she was satisfied.
Since then, she had taken a particular liking to Grandma Mu.
In early September, Ye City was still quite hot.
It was the perfect weather for all sorts of delicious, heat-reducing snacks.
And her apartment had all the ingredients.
She decided not to shop for those expensive gifts.
Not because she was stingy or short on cash, but because Grandma Mu didn't lack anything.
Mu Shaochen's brows raised slightly, "You're not buying?"
"No."
"Then, let's just head to your apartment. We're married now, no need to divide what's yours and mine in buying gifts. The gift you prepare is also the one I prepare."
Mu Shaochen was indeed a shameless man.
Qin Wan had always known.
Worried that he might start talking dirty, she let him drive to her apartment.
Half an hour later.
Mu Shaochen's flashy car parked under the apartment building.
He knew Qin Wan's apartment address and even the floor and unit number.
But he had never entered her home before.
This was the first time Mu Shaochen was following Qin Wan to her apartment, and moreover, it was her who had brought him there.
As soon as the elevator door opened, his cell phone began to ring.
Seeing the caller's name, Mu Shaochen furrowed his brows and said to Qin Wan, who was stepping into the elevator, "You go up first, I need to take this call."
Qin Wan's gaze swept over the phone in his hand, her eyes revealing understanding.
She pressed the elevator door close button.
Upon reaching her floor, she entered the code, opened the door, and went inside.
Initially, she didn't look towards the sofa.
A few steps into the apartment, she heard a noise from the sofa.
Turning her head, her steps abruptly halted.
