"Sorry, I thought it was Director Yang. Wait a minute, I'll change my clothes."
Shi Yubai's voice was a little muffled through the door, and a faint clanging sound could be heard from inside.
Ji Xingyao touched her hot cheeks. Oh, this... is so embarrassing.
For a moment she didn't know whether to leave or stay.
The script was deformed by her, so after thinking about it, I decided to leave.
Just as she was about to leave, the door opened.
Shi Yubai suppressed his rapid breathing and didn't look directly into Ji Xingyao's eyes. Instead, his gaze slightly lowered, landing on the tip of her upturned nose: "Sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. Please come in."
"Excuse me." Ji Xingyao pretended not to notice that he put his T-shirt on backwards and walked into the house with his head held high.
Shi Yubai's room was not as big as hers, but it also had a small living room.
"Please sit down. Would you like some coffee?"
There is a coffee machine in his room. It seems that he likes to make coffee by himself.
"You're welcome. I don't drink coffee." Ji Xingyao had already disturbed his normal rest, and he felt embarrassed to bother others to make coffee.
"Okay." Shi Yubai sat down on the sofa opposite her.
"Bian Ji, can I call you that?" Ji Xingyao wanted to get into the role in advance. From now on, she would treat Shi Yubai as Bian Ji.
Ji Xingyao's voice is not the gentle type, but it has its own unique flavor, especially when she called "Bian Ji", Shi Yubai's ears were blown by someone out of thin air, and he felt so itchy that he wanted to scratch it.
"Yes, sure." Shi Yubai nodded.
"I just read the script, but time is limited, so I only read half of it. I want to talk to you about my opinion. If there are any mistakes, could you please help me guide me?"
Ji Xingyao came here with the sincerity of wanting to be a disciple. It was a rare occasion that she wanted to do something seriously.
"it is good."
They had both just taken a shower and could smell the scent of each other's shower gel.
Shi Yubai swallowed and tried his best to focus on the script.
However, he didn't realize that his gaze would uncontrollably drift to Ji Xingyao.
Ji Xingyao talked with Shi Yubai very seriously for a long time. As the male lead, Shi Yubai's understanding and control of the role are absolutely unparalleled.
Similarly, his understanding of the heroine also made Ji Xingyao's closed mind suddenly clear up. Things that she had always felt vague about before immediately became much clearer.
Time passed quickly, and when Ji Xingyao realized she was hungry, it was already dark outside the window.
At this time, Wen Yuan called her and said that he had booked a restaurant and was waiting for her to go have dinner together.
"Ayuan, I want to invite Bian Ji to have dinner with me."
"Bian Ji?"
"Oh, no, it's Shi Yubai. He just told me about the play for a long time. It really bothered him. I want to treat him to a meal."
When Ji Xingyao said this, her eyes looked at Shi Yubai, as if she would get angry immediately if he refused.
"Okay, I'm going back to Hai City tomorrow and I won't be with you. I really need to find someone reliable to take care of you. Xiaoshi, although young, looks very down-to-earth."
Wen Yuan's words came into Shi Yubai's ears through the receiver.
He lowered his head, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
Ji Xingyao leaned to the side and lowered his voice, trying to hide his guilt. "I'm such a grown-up, how can I need any care? Just send me the restaurant address and I'll be there in a minute."
After hanging up the phone, Ji Xingyao said solemnly: "Shi Yubai, I'll treat you to dinner tonight, along with my good friend Wen Yuan. Do you mind?"
"do not mind."
"Okay, then I'll go back first. You..." Before leaving, Ji Xingyao thought about it and decided to remind him. She didn't tell him that Shi Yubai was wearing his clothes backwards, but just said, "Change your clothes."
After Ji Xingyao left, Shi Yubai took off his clothes and found that he had put his T-shirt on inside out!
His face suddenly turned red.
For two hours, he was dressed like this and still chatting with Ji Xingyao?
Shi Yubaisheng pounded the dressing mirror in despair. Suddenly, he felt that it would be too embarrassing to skip dinner.
-
Ji Xingyao and Wen Yuan waited in the lounge area of the hotel lobby until dawn.
After a while, Shi Yubai arrived.
He wore a white shirt and light-colored trousers, and his short hair was gelled and slicked back. This look made him look a bit mature, but his temperament could hold up.
"Hello, Xiaoshi."
"Mr. Wen, good evening."
"Come on, take my car."
The three of them got into Wen Yuan's car together, and the white Alpha drove steadily on the wide asphalt road.
Behind the car that no one paid any attention to, a black Land Rover followed closely behind.
Linshi is a second-tier city, and its scale in all aspects cannot be compared with the super first-tier Haishi. However, the food is famous for its deliciousness.
Wen Yuan booked a private restaurant, a small private room that was more than enough for three people.
"Xiao Xiao, order whatever you like."
Wen Yuan handed him the menu.
Shi Yubai didn't answer: "Boss Wen, I'm not picky about food, please take care of it."
"Okay." Wen Yuan ordered a few of the restaurant's signature dishes and an extra dessert for Ji Xingyao.
While waiting, Wen Yuan also expressed his feelings: "Xingyao has never acted before. This is her first time playing a leading female role with a heavy role. If there is anything she cannot do well, I need Teacher Xiao to bear with her."
"Mr. Wen, Star has a thorough understanding of the script. I think she will be absolutely fine."
"Great minds think alike. I also think she is fully capable of doing this."
The two of them smiled at each other in tacit understanding, which made Ji Xingyao feel uncomfortable.
She is an outsider and is not worthy of their trust.
"Xingyao, I heard from Director Yang that the crew will officially start filming in a week. These few days, study the script like you're cramming for an exam. The acting teacher and personal assistant will be arriving tomorrow. Then you can focus on studying and don't worry about anything else."
"Ah."
Without Wen Yuan's reminder, Ji Xingyao was ready to read the script all night.
She lacked so much and was originally a mess, but after talking with Shi Yubai, her thinking became much clearer, at least she was no longer running around like a headless fly.
"I've only read half of the script. I'll finish the other half tonight. Teacher Xiaoshi, I might have to bother you again tomorrow. Please give me your guidance."
Ji Xingyao tilted her head, and when she called Xiaoshi teacher, there was a subtle playfulness in her voice.
Shi Yubai smiled and replied, "I'm at your service anytime."
Shi Yubai is a thoughtful and considerate person. When the dishes were served, he was the first to serve them to the two ladies and took the initiative to refill their drinks.
We had a great time chatting during the meal. It is said that eating can bring people closer together, and it is true.
How could a banquet hall gathering with hundreds of people compare to a small gathering of three people? Shi Yubai lost his initial reserve and became much closer to them.
The meal lasted nearly two hours, and when they came out, the atmosphere between the three of them was obviously more harmonious than before.
Alpha started and returned to the hotel.
Not long after the car started driving, Lao Lu suddenly looked at the rearview mirror frequently.
Wen Yuan accidentally noticed his abnormality and asked, "Old Lu, what happened next?"
"Mr. Wen, there's a black car that seems to be following us."
