The Rebirth of a Top Star

Chapter 26 Cooperation

Shen Nanqiao was very happy filming on set. In fact, in this life, she integrated into the film crew much earlier than she had in her previous life when she truly entered the industry.

Shen Nanqiao didn't feel tired; she enjoyed this time.

Experiencing other people's lives in a scenario is like living through countless lifetimes yourself.

Time flies when everything is going smoothly. An Luochen, unusually, publicly berated Gu Ning in front of Shen Nanqiao.

Gu Ning had been lost in thought while filming a scene, and instead of showing remorse, he just stared blankly.

Director An seems to have taken some kind of madness today. She actually snapped at the male lead.

Another possibility is that Shen Nanqiao has gotten used to it; he and An Luochen are together every day, and they have truly become close friends despite their age difference.

She likes this kind of person, this way of doing things, which makes people feel comfortable and doesn't require pretense.

The only person I regret being on set was Ye Meng. Seriously, aside from rehearsing scenes together, she never got close to me.

At this time, Shen Nanqiao was unaware that Song Shiyuan had already returned.

With everything going smoothly, Shen Nanqiao didn't pay attention to Song Shiyuan's schedule. He assumed Song Shiyuan was still abroad, living happily ever after with his girlfriend.

Little did anyone know that after returning to China, Song Shiyuan never saw Gu Leyi again after sending her back to the Gu family's old house.

Song Shiyuan did not cover anything up for Gu Leyi. Firstly, his family elders wanted him to explain everything clearly, and his parents were also urging him to resolve the matter as soon as possible.

The two families had a good relationship, but Song Shiyuan's mother knew that Song Shiyuan didn't like the Gu family's youngest daughter.

His mother was a little worried that since her son was always associated with this girl in their social circle, it would affect his future daughter-in-law.

Song's mother is a very open-minded person. Initially, SY Group did not have an entertainment division. It was only because Song Shiyuan's mother liked to follow entertainment news that this branch company was established.

Song Shiyuan also knew the gravity of the matter. Gu Leyi's activities abroad were not trivial. In fact, she had secretly started dating someone without anyone knowing, not even the people he was helping to keep an eye on her.

The person in question wasn't some strange foreigner; perhaps it was fate that brought them together. It turned out to be Xu Youheng, the eldest son of the Xu family, one of the world's top 50 companies.

Song Shiyuan had met Xu Youheng's father at a banquet before.

Although he may seem a bit arrogant, he is a polite and refined man.

However, his father's reputation in the business world wasn't very good, so after the Gu family learned that Gu Leyi had found such a boyfriend...

The older generation was very angry.

Song Shiyuan couldn't offer much help to these elderly people, so he could only instruct his subordinates to thoroughly investigate the basic situation of Xu Youheng, who was studying abroad.

The matter has not yet been fully investigated, and we have not obtained any relevant information.

Song Shiyuan was already bogged down by countless tasks.

He didn't tell Shen Nanqiao that he had returned, and Shen Nanqiao naturally didn't know that he had returned, because Shen Nanqiao had stopped paying attention to Song Shiyuan's schedule.

The second half of Luo Yu's story progressed very quickly in some parts.

Working non-stop, from the moment you open your eyes in the morning until late at night, is a very normal thing.

Some actors in the crew also complained to the director about how pitiful they were.

In the end, Director An replied with just one sentence: "If I, an old man, can endure it, what can't you endure?"

Therefore, Shen Nanqiao was very clever and never uttered a single word of such a statement.

Although she doesn't say it, Shen Nanqiao does it herself, like right now.

It's a break from filming right now. The scene is between the male lead and the second female lead. Although she doesn't have to act, it will be her turn to act again in a couple of scenes.

So I couldn't leave and could only sit on the bench next to me and watch others perform.

Shen Nanqiao would not waste such a great opportunity.

She had already used her previous experience to open the recliner that Xiaoju had brought over that morning.

Find a quiet, secluded spot, and open the door to find a small bed. To protect your makeup from smudging and to maintain your appearance, you need to...

Shen Nanqiao didn't cover anything; he simply pressed his phone under his body, crossed his arms, and closed his eyes.

It wasn't quite sleeping; it was more like resting with my eyes closed.

Xiao Ju then sat in the spot where Shen Nanqiao had been sitting. She kept an eye on the surroundings for Shen Nanqiao, and if anything happened, she would wake up the sleeping beauty immediately.

Gu Ning's scenes were not filmed very smoothly.

Or rather, during filming, Gu Ning would frequently glance at the person lying on the chair.

Shen Nanqiao closed her eyes, ignoring everything happening outside the window.

In Director An's eyes, Gu Ning's behavior was simply a deliberate waste of time.

Ye Meng, who was acting opposite Gu Ning, could clearly follow Gu Ning's gaze and see in the direction he was looking.

Why? It's Shen Nanqiao again.

Ye Meng usually appears calm and composed, but at this moment, even though she is acting, her inner turmoil slowly emerges.

Shen Nanqiao, Shen Nanqiao.

The lines from the script that I was supposed to recite in my mind kept turning into these three words.

Ye Meng also detached herself from the role.

Director An, who was watching intently from behind the monitor, had already seen everything clearly.

He had already said it once, or even at least five times in the past two days, but Gu Ning was never in the right frame of mind.

He knew who was resting in that direction, but Director An just didn't understand why Gu Ning was looking at Shen Nanqiao for no reason.

It wasn't like this just a few days ago.

"Crack!"

An Luochen was very angry because she had just reminded him before filming started, but now this strange thing was happening again, and both the male lead and the second female lead were out of character at the same time.

"This show can't be filmed anymore."

An Luochen slammed the script in her hand to the ground with a thud.

He woke up Shen Nanqiao, who was quite far away from him.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Shen Nanqiao almost fell asleep, looking at Xiao Ju beside him with blurry eyes.

Xiao Ju was also a little dazed. She reached out and helped Shen Nanqiao sit up to relieve herself.

"It seems there's a problem with filming." Xiao Ju only noticed these clues. Shen Nanqiao was now fully awake and immediately stood up.

He went straight to An Luochen's side.

Seeing that the director was only angry and didn't continue yelling, I breathed a sigh of relief.

He beckoned the two people still standing over there to come over, gave Gu Ning a wink, and then stood behind the director.

Shen Nanqiao only breathed a sigh of relief when An Luochen finally spoke, even though he was cursing.

Seeing that there were no major problems, Shen Nanqiao slipped back to her seat.

Unexpectedly, a little while later, Gu Ning, after explaining to the director, walked towards her seat.

"I have something I want to talk to you about." Standing there during the New Year, he got straight to the point.

Shen Nanqiao was somewhat surprised, because his relationship with Gu Ning was neither good nor bad.

Shen Nanqiao may seem cheerful on the surface, but deep down she's a very stubborn person.

Avoid initiating contact with people you can avoid and try to build relationships with them.

Gu Ning is an introverted person, so Shen Nanqiao's relationship with Gu Ning is not as good as her relationship with Fang Zihe during the Begonia Blossoms.

Thinking of this, Shen Nanqiao suddenly realized that although the movie had not been edited yet, it had been successfully uploaded for inspection.

I haven't been in touch with Fang Zihe for a long time.

Thinking back to those rumors, there were also fans who liked the pairing of me and Fang Zihe.

Shen Nanqiao found it amusing and suddenly burst out laughing in front of Gu Ning.

Gu Ning thought that Shen Nanqiao had already guessed what he was going to say, and his tense body relaxed a little.

The tension from when I was speaking has subsided, and I'm much more relaxed now.

Shen Nanqiao followed Gu Ning's steps for a couple of steps. Apart from a few of Xiao Ju's, there was no one else around.

Gu Ning then spoke directly.

"Are you going to be on the new variety show that's about to start filming?"

"Huh?" Shen Nanqiao didn't react.

Before she could understand what variety show Gu Ning was referring to, Gu Ning explained it again.

"The true essence of a couple, I heard, is that you were the first one chosen."

Shen Nanqiao then realized that it was that dating reality show. "Just a few days ago, I heard from Director Song's assistant that everything was almost ready and filming was about to begin."

Shen Nanqiao paused for a moment, then asked curiously, "Are you going to participate in this variety show too?"

Shen Nanqiao thought back to her past life, and it seemed that there was no such person as Gu Ning.

While things were still being finalized, Gu Ning had already given Shen Nanqiao a definite answer: "My agent just finalized the deal for me, and I only just found out that you were also participating."

With a deep voice, Shen Nanqiao was thinking about what was going on.

As my pace differs from that of my previous life, it seems that many things around me have become subject to uncontrollable changes.

"Congratulations on landing another variety show." It seemed that Shen Nanqiao was genuinely congratulating Gu Ning.

Gu Ning, however, was absent-minded. Looking at Shen Nanqiao's face, she hesitated for a long time before finally making up her mind: "Would you mind working with me on a variety show?"
