Touya Yaoyao

To be honest, being held so closely by a man made Yu Yaoyao feel a little awkward. She subconsciously moved her hand, which was being held by Bai Taoshi, and said in a low voice with an embarrassed expression:

"I think this doesn't seem like a good idea!"

Perhaps because they were too close, Bai Taoshi could clearly see that Yu Yaoyao's originally white skin had a faint pinkish tinge. He belatedly realized this and subconsciously blushed.

Reluctantly letting go of Yu Yaoyao's hand, Bai Taoshi awkwardly tried to smooth things over:

"I didn't mean to."

Yu Yaoyao tidied her non-existent messy hair to cover up her embarrassment, and whispered to herself:

"It's alright, just be careful."

In an instant, an ambiguous and almost sticky atmosphere spread between the two, yet neither of them tacitly spoke up to break the silence.

Because he still needed to film, Bai Taoshi couldn't stay here for too long. Yu Yaoyao knew he was busy and wanted to continue looking around, but someone grabbed her hand without saying a word.

Their fingers were intertwined, and the heat emanating from each other's palms was intense. Yu Yaoyao subconsciously glanced at Bai Taoshi, but Bai Taoshi seemed not to notice and looked into the distance.

Left with no other choice, Yu Yaoyao had to bite the bullet and say:

"Peach Arrow"

"Um"

"Can you let go?!"

But I'm a little cold.

"It's springtime now, and besides, you can put your hands in your pockets."

"It's cold even when I put it in my pocket."

"But wouldn't it be cold to hold hands?!"

"It's different. If Yaoyao holds my hand, my hand won't be cold."

No matter what she said, the other party just wouldn't let go. Yu Yaoyao had no choice but to let it go and simply pretended not to see it.

A gentle breeze blew by, and the only sounds were the rustling of branches in the wind and the footsteps of the two people. For some reason, Shiro Taoya felt that this moment was very nice and quiet. In particular, the cool skin lying in his palm made his heart feel more at ease.

He subconsciously looked at Yu Yaoyao's profile; her beautiful face was quietly gazing at the distant scenery, radiating a unique gentleness.

"You'll come to all my filming projects, right? If you don't come, I won't film them."

For no apparent reason, Bai Taoshi uttered those words, which carried a subtle threat. Yu Yaoyao frowned in annoyance, intending to retort, but then she saw him looking at her arrogantly, as if warning her:

"You can give it a try, after all, I'm quite popular. But if your cousin doesn't finish his graduation project, don't blame me."

What else could Yu Yaoyao say? She couldn't say anything, so her lips twitched, and she wisely kept quiet.

This is too ridiculous! So ridiculous that she began to suspect that Ye Qiguo made Bai Taoshi the male lead because Bai Taoshi volunteered himself. After all, given Ye Qiguo's intelligence, he shouldn't have thought of this.

After Bai Taoshi and Yu Yaoyao returned to the filming location, Ye Qiguo was preparing to shoot the second scene between the male and female leads. Yu Yaoyao was playing with her phone out of boredom, wondering if she should ask the owner of Ye's custom clothing to make her a cheongsam.

After all, it would look great to take photos in a cheongsam in this old house, so Yu Yaoyao simply found a piece of white paper and started writing and drawing on it.

Yu Yaoyao was so excited and absorbed in her creation that she didn't pay attention to her surroundings at all. It wasn't until someone suddenly patted her on the shoulder that she belatedly realized what was happening.

As dusk approached, Ye Qiguo and the others were already preparing to wrap up work. She, however, looked at Bai Taoshi, who was watching her with amusement, and couldn't help but ask in surprise:

"what happened?"

Bai Taoshi naturally noticed Yu Yaoyao's change. He glanced at the strange clothes Yu Yaoyao had drawn on the paper, coughed lightly, and then tentatively asked:

"Come on, I'll take you home."

But before she could finish speaking, Ye Qiguo interrupted her impatiently:

"Don't even think about it. Her third brother will be here soon. If he sees you with her, he'll yell at her again. You'd better hide for now, or you won't be able to see her at all tomorrow."

Ye Qiguo spoke without any politeness. Bai Taoshi wanted to retort, but seeing Ye Qiguo's serious demeanor, he could only roll his eyes and walk away arrogantly.

After Bai Taoyi had completely left, Ye Qiguo looked at Yu Yaoyao with pity and began to give her some advice:

"Sweetie, just consider it helping your cousin out. I transferred tens of thousands of yuan to you as hush money. Don't tell anyone about what happened today, okay? Otherwise, I'm afraid your third brother will beat me up."

Yu Yaoyao listened with a black line on her face, and couldn't help but look at Ye Qiguo speechlessly and complain:

"If you knew you'd get beaten up, why did you do it?!"

Ye Qiguo awkwardly scratched his hair and muttered under his breath:

"I want to be famous too, like other directors, making masterpieces, winning awards, and receiving praise for every film. But, I'm just a student who hasn't graduated yet, and I don't have much talent, so... never mind, why am I telling you all this? Anyway, thank you for helping me today."

As he spoke, Ye Qiguo reached out and touched the top of Yu Yaoyao's head, and then saw Ye Qishi walk in with a gloomy expression.

Ye Qiguo swiftly withdrew his hand from Yu Yaoyao's head, then greeted her respectfully and reservedly:

"Cousin, so early! Are you here to pick Yaoyao up from school?!"

Ye Qiqi gave a faint reply, then looked at Yu Yaoyao, her expression softening for a moment, and asked:

"How are you feeling today?! Are you settling in alright?!"

Yu Yaoyao nodded, speaking cheerfully:

"It's quite fun."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qi smiled subconsciously, then looked at Ye Qiguo. Ye Qiguo smiled back when he saw him looking at him, and then said to Yu Yaoyao:

"Remember to come early tomorrow, and don't forget to memorize your script."

He spoke with such conviction that Yu Yaoyao began to play along. Ye, being unfamiliar with such matters, didn't ask any further questions. Instead, he reached out and touched the top of Yu Yaoyao's head, whispering:

"Go, go."

Same spot, different pressure, as if trying to wipe something away. Yu Yaoyao smiled, then waved to Ye Qiguo. Ye Qiguo smiled perfunctorily, then watched the two leave, shook his head to himself, and sighed:

"Indeed, there are no brothers in front of a beautiful woman."

Because she wanted to wear a cheongsam, Yu Yaoyao contacted the owner of the Ye family's custom clothing shop. After she sent them the sample picture, the owner called her.

Seeing Yu Yaoyao staring blankly at her phone with trepidation, Ye Qi couldn't help but ask:

"What's wrong?! Your brother's here, it's okay, press the speakerphone button."

Since Ye had spoken, Yu Yaoyao had no choice but to answer on speakerphone, and then the car was filled with his excited voice:

"Yaoyao, did you design this?! Did you really design this?! Do you want to come over and be my...?"

Before the man could finish speaking, Ye snatched the phone from Yu Yaoyao and said directly:

She's not interested.
