More than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and the filming is proceeding in an orderly manner.

"Card!"

Cheng Suyi called a pause, then walked out from behind the monitor with a smile, beaming at Shi Xiaxia: "Xiaxia, you're amazing! Your performance is just as good in every take!"

"Xiaxia, you've worked hard."

Du Yushu, who was acting opposite Shi Xiaxia, said with a smile, "It's all my fault for not being in good condition, which made Xiaxia suffer."

"Brother Du, you flatter me."

Shi Xiaxia said politely, "Brother Du's performance was truly impressive; I still have much to learn from him."

"Xiaxia, you're too modest!"

Cheng Suyi didn't quite agree with Shi Xiaxia's modesty. After all, in his opinion, Shi Xiaxia's acting skills were no worse than Du Yushu's.

"Yes!"

Du Yushu agreed with Cheng Suyi's point of view and exclaimed, "I wish I were like you and never make a mistake!"

"I'm afraid that won't work," Shi Xiaxia replied with a smile.

Shen Qingqing, who had originally intended to go forward and offer Du Yushu a handkerchief and a drink, stood still after hearing their conversation.

She glanced at Shi Xiaxia with a hint of jealousy and resentment in her eyes.

Why does she receive so much praise for just one movie?!

But when she was filming, Cheng Suyi always lectured her! He found fault with everything she did!

"Director!" Someone called Cheng Suyi over.

Cheng Suyi waved his hand to indicate that he understood, and then said to Shi Xiaxia and Du Yushu, "Go and rest for a while, we'll film another scene later."

"Okay." Shi Xiaxia agreed and was about to go to the side to rest.

Du Yushu spoke up at the right moment, "Xiaxia, don't go yet."

"Brother Du, is there something you need?" Shi Xiaxia stopped in her tracks.

Du Yushu smiled and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Could we rehearse a scene together? I'm afraid I'll have to do several takes later, and the director will scold me again."

“Okay.” Shi Xiaxia did not refuse.

The two were preparing to rehearse in a quieter place when Shen Qingqing, who had been waiting on the side, came over.

She glanced timidly at Shi Xiaxia before revealing her purpose: "Um... I always have trouble getting into character, could I act with you guys?"

After speaking, she glanced at Du Yushu with a pitiful expression, as if she had been bullied.

She will also have a role in the next scene, and Shen Qingqing's request is reasonable.

She's just waiting for Shi Xiaxia to refuse! That way, Du Yushu will understand what kind of person Shi Xiaxia is!

"Okay!"

Shi Xiaxia smiled slightly and readily agreed.

After she agreed, she looked at Du Yushu and asked, "Brother Du, you don't mind, do you?"

"I don't mind," Du Yushu said with a smile.

He gave Shen Qingqing a meaningful look before quickly looking away.

"Wait for me to get the script!" Shen Qingqing said hurriedly.

Shi Xiaxia wasn't afraid even though she agreed. She could take this opportunity to build a good relationship with Du Yushu!

She had also made many attempts to curry favor with Du Yushu in ordinary times.

But he was always very polite to her, never giving her any special treatment! On the contrary, he always greeted Shi Xiaxia with a smile!

Despite harboring resentment, Shen Qingqing glanced at the handkerchief and drink in her hand and handed them to Du Yushu, saying, "Brother Du, you must have had a hard time filming just now."

"Need not!"

Du Yushu waved his hand: "If my girlfriend finds out, she'll probably make a scene."

Shen Qingqing was taken aback for a moment, then immediately asked, "Does Brother Du already have a girlfriend?"

"Yes!" Du Yushu readily admitted.

"I apologize for my intrusion." Shen Qingqing hesitated for a moment before taking back the item.

How come she hadn't heard that Du Yushu was already in a relationship?

Besides, isn't Du Yushu afraid of being exposed for saying this to her directly?

Shen Qingqing couldn't figure it out, so she could only put it out of her mind for now and quickly walked to get the script.

After Shen Qingqing left, Du Yushu explained to Shi Xiaxia, "I don't have a girlfriend yet."

Du Yushu didn't say anything more.

Shi Xiaxia also understood that the reason he lied was because he didn't want Shen Qingqing to be too enthusiastic towards him anymore.

"I know."

Shi Xiaxia nodded slightly and said to him, "Although Brother Du's marriage came relatively late, it will be a happy and fulfilling one."

When Du Yushu heard Shi Xiaxia say this, he was stunned for a moment, then realized what she meant: "Oh! That's right! You can read faces!"

He later made a point of learning about domestic entertainment news, and thus learned about Shi Xiaxia's abilities.

However, she doesn't seem to use it normally, which often causes Du Yushu to forget about it.

He laughed and said, "I understand your rules too."

As he spoke, he took out his phone and transferred tens of thousands of yuan to Shi Xiaxia: "If things really work out, I'll treat you to my wedding banquet."

When Shen Qingqing returned, she overheard Du Yushu saying that he was inviting Shi Xiaxia to his wedding.

She paused, a hint of confusion in her expression.

Could it be...

Does Du Yushu really already have a girlfriend?

She originally wanted to increase Du Yushu's favorability towards her and then extract his luck points, but with a girlfriend, things weren't so easy for Song Changsheng...

Shen Qingqing quickly approached the two men, her face flushed, seemingly very excited to be acting alongside them.

The next scene to be filmed is about Xin Yizhi, the male lead played by Du Yushu, who is hired as a teacher after returning from studying abroad.

Xin Yizhi was very talented and was invited by the production team to write the script.

Meanwhile, Chen Huanyan, played by Shi Xiaxia, and Ye Qiuchi, played by Shen Qingqing, are small-time actresses who are harassed by a wealthy businessman. Xin Yizhi helps them resolve the crisis with just a few words.

After the three were ready, Du Yushu took over the role of the wealthy businessman, Mr. Liu.

He revealed a lewd smile and blocked Chen Huanyan and Ye Qiuchi, who were walking out.

"Oh! Look who these two beautiful ladies are!"

Mr. Liu's eyes swept over the two men with a lewd look before he asked, "Are you two on your way? Would you like me to give you a ride?"

"Need not!"

Chen Huanyan immediately refused: "We'll just go up ahead to buy something and come right back. If Boss Liu wants to talk to the director, he should go there. The director is there right now."

Chen Huanyan pointed in a direction as she spoke.

"You're like this...you're like this..." Shen Qingqing stammered as she spoke her lines.

"What's wrong?" Du Yushu looked at Shen Qingqing with a puzzled expression.

"I'm a little nervous," Shen Qingqing said with an awkward smile.

She couldn't very well say that she wasn't very familiar with her lines, could she? If she did, wouldn't she lose to Shi Xiaxia?

“Then let’s do it again,” Du Yushu said.

"Okay." Shen Qingqing suppressed her emotions and agreed.

The three then resumed rehearsing their lines.

Every time it was Shen Qingqing's turn to deliver her lines, she would read them haltingly, unable to get into character at all.

Because of Shen Qingqing's stiffness, Du Yushu was also unable to find his footing for a long time.

He glanced at Shen Qingqing, then looked away without saying anything, simply continuing to cooperate with Shi Xiaxia's performance.
