Among Mu Shiyan's friends, Su Yunxi had only met Lu Zhiyang.

As for whether he had other good friends, Su Yunxi had no idea.

Mu Shiyan answered her while scooping the blanched vegetables into a bowl, "Hot pot has a strong smell. If you eat it for a long time, the smell will all be stained on your clothes. I only eat it once or twice."

Su Yunxi couldn't help laughing, "Besides Lawyer Lu, do you have any other close friends?"

Mu Shiyan, "Not much, I'll take you to see him when I have the chance."

Su Yunxi, "Are they all men? Do you have any female friends?"

Mu Shiyan raised an eyebrow, "Testing me?"

Su Yunxi denied, "No, I'm just curious!"

Her expression was sincere, and Mu Shiyan curled his lips, "Men make friends differently from women. Not everyone can be a friend. Of course, the boundaries of friendship are also different."

Friends can be deep or shallow.

It may not be so obvious between women. Those with cheerful personalities can chat with anyone and make friends with anyone.

Su Yunxi smiled and asked, "In your heart, what kind of person can be your close friend?"

Mu Shiyan, "It's hard to say."

Su Yunxi, "What's your answer?"

Mu Shiyan said, "Sometimes it's just a feeling, it can only be understood but not expressed in words."

Su Yunxi joked, "It's about making friends, not falling in love."

Why does it sound so easy to be misunderstood?

Mu Shiyan asked back, "Can you explain why?"

Su Yunxi said decisively, "No."

Mu Shiyan, "..."

It’s a rare opportunity to eat hotpot. We eat slowly and chat while eating. The atmosphere is relaxed and it brings us closer.

It rained all night long, and I could faintly hear the howling of the wind outside the closed window, as if the branches were about to be blown off.

Before closing her eyes, Su Yunxi thought about the phone call from Mu Shiyan. Who called? Whose house was uninhabitable?

Is this the person she was thinking of?

Have they been in touch privately?

With these questions in mind, Su Yunxi slowly fell asleep.

……

After the rain, the sky cleared up, but it was even hotter than before.

After filming a scene, Ye Wanrou's back was already drenched in sweat, and her makeup was smudged and needed to be touched up.

"Filming in the summer is such a torture!" Ye Wanrou complained to Su Yunxi while drinking a cold drink.

"Filming in winter is just as hard. We have to dedicate ourselves to art," Su Yunxi comforted her with a smile.

"I think Director Cheng doesn't seem to be afraid of the heat at all. She doesn't sweat much," Ye Wanrou said in a low voice.

"Everyone has a different physique," Su Yunxi looked at Cheng Shuangxue who was talking to Xu Jing.

Xu Jing was able to see Su Yunxi from the angle she was standing at. Her eyes weren't particularly sharp, but they weren't particularly gentle either.

"The house you live in is an old one, very dilapidated. This time it's just a water leak, but I'm worried about a leakage of electricity," Xu Jing frowned.

It was raining heavily outside and lightly inside. The roads in the community were flooded up to the calves and were so rotten that people could not live there.

"I haven't been back long, so I thought about finding a cheap house to live in as a temporary solution. Although that house is a bit old, it is in a good location. Who knew something like this would happen," Cheng Shuangxue said helplessly.

"It's okay to stay in a hotel temporarily, but it can't solve the actual problem. He has so many houses under his name, can't he spare one for you?" Xu Jing said angrily.

"Not suitable," Cheng Shuangxue sighed.

"Why is it inappropriate? Is it you who doesn't want it, or him who won't give it to you?" Xu Jing couldn't bear to see her being wronged like this.

"Even if he gives it to me, I won't take it," Cheng Shuangxue stated.

"Why not? You're just too stupid. There's no need to be polite with men," Xu Jing retorted.

"What right do I have to take his house?" Cheng Shuangxue smiled slightly bitterly, "Jingjing, stop talking about this!"

She didn't want to talk, so Xu Jing stopped talking no matter how angry she was. The look in her eyes seemed to indicate that she was disappointed in her.

The two of them stopped standing together and chatting, and each went to talk to the staff about work.

Su Yunxi withdrew her gaze and drank water in small sips.

The night scene required filming a scene in the rain, which required clear lines and beautiful makeup, so that the picture presented in front of the camera was aesthetically pleasing.

The whole play was not led by Cheng Shuangxue, but by Xu Jing.

When Cheng Shuangxue was not filming, she looked at Qingqing coldly and didn't say much, but when filming, she was extremely serious and strict.

Xu Jing usually looks enthusiastic, cheerful and easy to talk to, but she is a little irritable when filming. She scolds people without using any dirty words, which can make people become autistic.

She didn't know whether it was because of her physical discomfort that caused her bad mood, or because of her bad mood that made her unhappy with everyone and find fault with everything.

Ye Wanrou was targeted several times in a row, and was criticized for everything, making her confused and not knowing whether she had offended her in any way.

Maybe it was because a scene was shot too many times and it took too long. The later it got, the more tired everyone became, and they couldn't help but complain.

Cheng Shuangxue, who did not leave, said something to Xu Jing, and Xu Jing calmed down a little. After taking two photos in a row, she was finally satisfied.

After removing her makeup and packing up, Ye Wanrou climbed into the car feeling like she was about to collapse.

"Did Deputy Director Xu deliberately target me today?" Ye Wanrou complained weakly, "How did I offend her?"

"You didn't offend her. She wasn't targeting you. It was me who implicated you," Su Yunxi sighed softly.

"What do you mean? She likes Song Qian too?" Ye Wanrou couldn't believe it.

The last time she was bitten by a snake, it was Mu Shiyu who did it because of Song Qian. Now it’s someone else this time?

"It has nothing to do with Song Qian," Su Yunxi found it difficult to speak.

"If it's not Song Qian, then who is it?" Ye Wanrou was too tired, and her mind was slow to react. "It can't be Ji Ze or Lu Jinwen, right? They have nothing to do with Xu Jing..."

Su Yunxi didn't say anything. She found it ridiculous just thinking about it.

Ye Wanrou muttered to herself, her mind in a knot. She stared at Su Yunxi for a moment, then suddenly thought, "Mu Shiyan?"

Su Yunxi responded helplessly, "Yes!"

"Oh my god!" Ye Wanrou was shocked and surprised, sitting up straight. "She likes Mu Shiyan? Isn't that your love rival?"

Su Yunxi interrupted, "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat? Oh, by the way, you've been soaking in the water for so long tonight, remember to take a pack of cold medicine when you get home as a precaution."

"Don't change the subject, you have to face it! Xu Jing, she looks quite powerful, and she seems difficult to deal with," Ye Wanrou became more and more excited as she spoke, and her spirits improved a lot.

Su Yunxi chuckled, "She didn't do anything to me openly, so if I took the initiative, wouldn't that be a disadvantage?"

"I'm not asking you to do anything to her, I'm asking you to be on guard against her," Ye Wanrou said.

Su Yunxi, "She's the assistant director on the crew. It would be too easy for her to target you. We can't do anything about something like today."

Ye Wanrou took a long while to utter two words, "Insidious."

Su Yunxi was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "She targeted you because of Mu Shiyan, but it's not a direct relationship."

Ye Wanrou was puzzled, "What?"

Su Yunxi, "She stood up for others."

Ye Wanrou, "..."

After getting the correct answer, Ye Wanrou was shocked. She leaned back in her chair for a long time without saying a word.

Who would have thought that it was not Xu Jing, but Cheng Shuangxue.

After more than a month in the group, he didn't notice anything wrong with Cheng Shuangxue.

She never targeted Su Yunxi, nor did she target her. On the contrary, she was quite kind and friendly.

Maybe it's just her personality, or maybe she deliberately hid close to them, waiting for an opportunity to strike!

With gossip, Ye Wanrou didn't feel tired at all.

But they knew too little about Cheng Shuangxue, and there was nothing to talk about.

It’s like the enemy knows you, but you know very little about the enemy, and even her identity is about to come to light.
