The waiter left in response, and soon, several delicious dishes were served one by one. When Guan Yueli saw the dishes on the table, her eyes couldn't help but focus.
There were several dishes on the table that she liked, and Guan Yueli couldn't help but turn her gaze to Shen Weixun.
Shen Weixun was stared at by her, feeling a little nervous: "Uh... don't you like these dishes? I noticed that you took more of these ingredients when you were on the island. If you don't like it, we can serve a few more dishes."
After hearing his words, Guan Yueli smiled: "I'm just a little surprised that you actually remember all these dishes?"
Shen Weixun felt relieved and smiled, "It just so happens that you have a good memory."
He picked up a piece of steamed pork ribs with rice flour for Guan Yueli: "Try it, this is their signature dish, see if you like it."
Guan Yueli couldn't help but salivate when she saw the tempting golden color on the surface of the ribs.
She took a bite, and the soft and glutinous rice noodles and the tender pork ribs blended perfectly in her mouth. Guan Yueli's eyes lit up. The rice noodles were blended with special seasonings, with the mellowness of soy sauce, the numbing fragrance of peppercorns, and the spicy aroma of ginger and garlic. After tasting it, she was very hungry.
Shen Weixun and Guan Yueli were not particularly talkative people, but Mr. Zeng was so happy that he kept talking. They talked about everything from Guan Yueli's reality show and medical skills to Shen Weixun's acting career and interesting stories from Zeng's youth. The two responded from time to time, and the three of them were having a great time during the meal.
Guan Yueli also particularly likes the fruit wine here. One sip will leave a deep fruity aroma between the lips and teeth, and the taste is mellow.
Guan Yueli couldn't help but drink a few more cups.
Shen Weixun saw that Guan Yueli's face was slightly flushed and her eyes were misty and moist. He couldn't help feeling thirsty in his throat, so he picked up a full glass of water and drank it in one gulp.
He quietly reminded Guan Yueli: "Although this is fruit wine, it has a strong aftertaste, don't drink too much!"
Guan Yueli raised her eyes upon hearing this, and ripples appeared in her peach blossom eyes, but she was completely unaware of it and sneered, "I can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk."
After saying that, he raised his hand and drank another glass.
Here, Mr. Zeng was still reminiscing about his youth. Suddenly, he changed the subject and said mysteriously, "By the way, Li Yatou, let me tell you a secret first. You will be happy to hear this good news."
Hearing this, Guan Yueli raised her head curiously: "Oh? What's the secret?"
Mr. Zeng said: "I am preparing a movie, and there is a place in Jiangcheng that is particularly suitable as a filming location."
"Weixun and I are here for a field trip."
Zeng Lao looked at Guan Yueli, deliberately keeping her in suspense. He coughed twice before saying, "Weixun was the male lead I decided on from the beginning, but I haven't found a suitable candidate for the female lead yet."
After saying this, Mr. Zeng looked at her pretending to be calm.
Guan Yueli blinked: "Ah! Congratulations, Mr. Zeng. I hope you can find a suitable heroine as soon as possible and start filming as soon as possible!"
After saying that, Guan Yueli took another sip of the fruit wine and sighed with satisfaction!
At this moment, Guan Yueli looked lazy and slightly tipsy, just like a little fox secretly tasting wine.
Shen Weixun felt like a bunch of fox fur was tickling the tip of his heart.
But this little fox did not impress Mr. Zeng, and at this moment he was a little speechless!
No, he is an internationally renowned director, a leading figure in the directing world. How many celebrities and artists have fought tooth and nail just to have a chance to appear in his films, let alone to be the female lead.
As long as one can appear in his movies, it means recognition of acting skills in the circle, which can bring unprecedented exposure to the actors and is also a fast track to awards.
Now, he revealed in front of her that he would start shooting a movie next, how could she be so calm?
More importantly, he'd already revealed that the film's female lead hadn't been confirmed yet! Didn't she have any ideas? Why not fight for herself?
His charm is not as good as a glass of fruit wine?
Even Mr. Zeng suspected that he was not that popular!
He looked at Shen Weixun across from him with a bit of depression as he picked up another piece of food for Guan Yueli with his chopsticks. The two of them were drinking and chatting as if no one was around.
It was as if the person sitting next to them was not a hall-of-fame director in the industry.
Humph, I don’t believe you can really hold it in!
Mr. Zeng ate his food by himself.
After a few minutes, after he had hinted to Guan Yueli and Shen Weixun with his eyes countless times without success, Mr. Zeng could no longer bear it.
He watched Guan Yueli's escape reality show in its entirety. In the live broadcast, she displayed extraordinary skills, being both cold and resolute, yet heroic. Beneath this cold and arrogant appearance, she actually had a gentle and compassionate heart. He was certain that this was the heroine he had always dreamed of and the one that matched his soul mate.
Having finally discovered this dazzling gem, Mr. Zeng was naturally unwilling to give up.
So, he spoke again hesitantly: "Li Yatou, look, this is the heroine of this movie, are you interested in trying it out?"
Guan Yueli was really surprised when he heard what Mr. Zeng said. He naturally knew the status of director Zeng Lingfan. The three words "Zeng Lingfan" were a golden signboard and a guarantee of word-of-mouth and box office success.
So she had never thought that what Mr. Zeng said was to let her try out for the female lead.
Guan Yueli reminded him, "Mr. Zeng, I'm just an unknown actor. I haven't even played a few supporting roles. Are you sure you want me to audition for the female lead?"
Zeng Lao waved his hand and said: "My films never focus on celebrity status, nor am I afraid to use newcomers. I only look at whether they are suitable for the role and whether they have acting skills."
Zeng Lao paused and said seriously, "However, although I like you, I can't give you this role directly. Even if it's Wei Xun, he has confirmed the male lead and auditioned. I can only give you one chance. When the time comes, you still have to compete with other actors for the audition."
Guan Yueli put away her nonchalance, stood up, and said solemnly, "Mr. Zeng has always had a sincere and passionate heart for film. It is people like you who stick to principles and stick to the bottom line that can create vitality in the film market and allow it to flourish. Auditioning is my duty, and I thank you for giving me this opportunity."
Hearing Guan Yueli's words, Zeng Lingfan laughed heartily: "Okay, okay, you have such cognition and vision at such a young age. I really didn't misjudge you. I believe in you, you will definitely stand out!"
Guan Yueli's words made Mr. Zeng feel a lot of emotion, and he couldn't help but think of his own ups and downs in life, with a slight moisture in the corners of his eyes.
Alas! It is easy to become sentimental when one gets old.
......
At nine o'clock in the evening, the three of them finished their chat, and Shen Weixun drove Zeng Lao and Guan Yueli. After sending Zeng Lao to his residence, he turned around and went back.
Guan Yueli sat in the passenger seat, leaning back with her head slightly lowered.
Shen Weixun glanced at her and said softly, "Lili, it's about an hour's drive to get there. You can sleep for a while. I'll call you when we get there."
Guan Yueli looked up, her face flushed, her eyes a little hazy, like two pools of rippling spring water. Perhaps because of the alcohol, her voice also had a hint of tenderness: "Hmm?"
At this moment, Guan Yueli felt as if she was lying on soft clouds, her whole body was soft, and her mind became light, sometimes clear, sometimes chaotic.
She looked at Shen Weixun who was so close to her, and looked at that elegant and handsome face, feeling a little dazed.
Suddenly, Guan Yueli smiled like a flower. She sat up straight, and gently pulled the seat belt with her fingertips.
Then, she turned sideways lightly and boldly yet gently placed a feather-light kiss on Shen Weixun's cheek.
