The male lead, Ling Yan, didn't have a large role in this scene. He had heard about Luo Jiu's acting skills and was prepared to film more than a dozen takes. However, he didn't expect Luo Jiu to give him such a big surprise.

There was a very comfortable feeling when acting with her.

It felt comfortable and natural to him, allowing him to immediately immerse himself in the role of Li Ruiyang.

Now, standing in front of the camera, one can truly appreciate Luo Jiu's acting skills. Every smile and frown carries the innocence of a young girl, yet her eyes reveal complexity and wariness. These two contradictory emotions alternate on her face without feeling out of place.

"director."

Luo Jiu walked over, her face still slightly flushed, her eyes completely changed, now cold and distant.

"Luo Jiu, come and take a look quickly."

Director Ji Liang's eyes suddenly lit up with fervor when he looked at Luo Jiu. He had been somewhat skeptical when he first saw Luo Jiu's costume photos, thinking it was just a coincidence.

Unexpectedly, the rumors were wrong. This isn't just a pretty face; it's a real treasure!

"You acted well. We'll add some more scenes later."

The script was underfunded and the schedule was very tight. After all, every extra day spent on the project meant a rougher final production.

Luo Jiu, as the third female lead, doesn't have a lot of screen time, but she's required to finish filming within the next two weeks.

Night quietly fell, and Luo Jiu, who had been filming all day, was completely exhausted.

This body is a bit weak; it seems I need to exercise more.

Luo Jiu rubbed her sore shoulders and walked out of the film set.

The filming location was chosen to be a well-known film studio in the city. Many film crews use this location for location shooting.

"Lili, which film crew is that over there? It's so late, and they're still working on it?"

Luo Jiu watched until late at night, and really couldn't understand how there could be a film crew that was even more short of funds than them.

"Oh, that's Director Wang and his team. They're filming a large-scale fantasy drama. Director Wang is known for being very strict in the industry. I guess some unlucky guy angered him."

"so……"

Luo Jiu seemed thoughtful. "Are there any other film crews shooting here recently?"

Now that we've met the male lead, it's necessary to put the romance strategy on the agenda. The first step is to get to know him better.

"No, that's all. It's just the two of us."

Upon hearing this, Luo Jiu's eyes flickered, and she looked at Li Li with bright eyes, "Is the film crew next door still short of people?"

"This... we shouldn't be lacking, right?"

Lili's lips twitched. "My dear sister," she thought, "even though the production team next door is richer and has a bigger budget, there's no need for this kind of 'career-driven' attitude. If this gets out, who knows what kind of abuse the haters will unleash."

"Oh well."

Luo Jiu's eyes immediately drooped, and she instantly lost all interest.

"Does Sister like fantasy dramas? I'll go back and ask around for Sister if there are any scripts like that," Li Li said cautiously to Luo Jiu.

"No." Luo Jiu was a little frustrated; it was another day where the plot made no progress.

Under the moonlight, the two strolled leisurely back to the hotel.

Just before the elevator doors closed, a man wearing a hat and dressed in black walked in.

Upon seeing the two people inside the elevator, he slightly raised his head in greeting.

Chestnut, who was quietly counting the floors, was immediately drawn to the view. Her eyes were filled with surprise, and her mouth was so wide open that it could almost fit an egg.

"I...my God, is it Chen Jinchen?"

She spoke cautiously, her eyes full of anticipation.

The man looked somewhat helpless, took off his hat, and smiled at Chestnut.

"My God! Sister, it really is Jin Chen!"

However, when Luo Jiu heard Li Li say the name, she looked up and met Shen Jinchen's gaze. She immediately covered her face with her hand in embarrassment.

At this moment, she was certain that Shen Jinchen had recognized her.

As a member of the "Appearance-Oriented Association" with verified influencer status, and a die-hard fan of Shen Jinchen, Li Li had long been captivated by Shen Jinchen's good looks in the entertainment industry.

After all, male actors who are good-looking, talented, well-mannered, and wealthy are rare these days.

At this moment, she couldn't care less about Luo Jiu. Her eyes were fixed on Shen Jinchen, and her hands were nimbly searching for a notebook in her backpack.

"My idol, could you please sign your autograph for me?"

She handed the notebook to Shen Jinchen, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment.

Shen Jinchen glanced at the shy person who was trying to dodge at the foot of the wall, and a smile flashed in his eyes.

Taking the notebook in front of me, three bold characters, full of character and personality, leaped off the page.

Chestnut carefully placed the notebook into her backpack.

In the past two years, Chen Jinchen's public appearances have gradually decreased, and he rarely engages in film production or attends events anymore. Heaven knows how rare it is to see him, let alone get an autograph.

If it weren't for a certain level of professional ethics, Li Li would have loved to go on Weibo right now and announce the news to the world.

The still-fresh autograph from the male god makes the girls envious.

As the elevator slowly ascended, Lili almost wanted to use her brain to slow it down, to slow it down even more. This was the first time she had ever been so close to her idol.

Lili, immersed in her joy, did not notice Luo Jiu's abnormality and embarrassment.

"Ding." The elevator stopped on the 18th floor.

Chestnut walked out, still gazing longingly at the two people in the elevator, before finally blurting out...

"Sis, take good care of my idol."

Luo Jiu: "??" Are you misunderstanding something?

Upon hearing this, Luo Jiu looked incredulous. "Have you forgotten who your boss is?"

Shen Jinchen, standing to the side, couldn't help but cough lightly, his smile widening. His eyes, warm and smiling, gazed at Luo Jiu.

"You were the one at noon today, weren't you?"

The man's clear and magnetic voice brought Luo Jiu back to her senses, and she couldn't help but recall the awkward scene from noon.

"No, no."

Luo Jiu shook her head like a rattle-drum, burying it even lower, like a quail.

But this self-deceiving act only deepened Shen Jinchen's smile.

"Ding." The elevator stopped on the 27th floor.

Luo Jiu rushed out of the elevator without stopping; the awkward atmosphere there made her scalp tingle.

Shen Jinchen had no intention of chasing her. He simply followed his own pace, slowly approaching her step by step, like a skilled predator moving towards its chosen prey.

Luo Jiu arrived at the door and began looking for the room key.

"I clearly remember putting it here? Could it be that I gave it to Chestnut?"

Luo Jiu muttered to herself, rummaged through everything, and finally couldn't resist calling Li Li.

Suddenly, a slender and long hand reached out in front of Luo Jiu, a room card was held between the man's two fingers, the numbers on it reflecting a golden light in the dim corridor.

The three numbers 276 are clearly visible.
