"Are you out of your mind! Or are you still drunk from last night! What are you thinking!" Lin Shuqin's voice suddenly became sharp, like the howling north wind outside the window, each word carrying a dull pain as it brushed against my ear.

It is a critique of her irrational behavior.

Lin Shuqin forced herself to calm down, looked at her calm face, and tried to persuade this seemingly stubborn fool in the most peaceful tone possible, "Xiao Er, think it through. Your career is on the rise. Yes, we make a living by our work, but which actor would want to reveal their relationship at this time?"

"Furthermore, think about Jiang Siyan's identity. Although people who are not familiar with him may not be able to guess who the person in the photo is, would people who know him well not be able to tell?"

"Once it's found out that we exposed this relationship ourselves, regardless of his attitude, what about Jiang Siyan's family? Is it a family that can tolerate this kind of thing happening?"

“They will think you have ulterior motives, that you are provoking them, and that you are trying to force them to acknowledge your relationship with Jiang Siyan. You can’t be so foolish, you know that?”

Every word Lin Shuqin said was sincere and reasonable.

But Su Er didn't just laugh it off as easily as before, and she didn't apologize or act coquettishly anymore.

Her expression remained as calm and undisturbed as it had been at the beginning.

Lin Shuqin sighed silently in her heart. She knew that Su Er was the kind of person who wouldn't easily change her mind once she made up her mind. She was almost stubbornly persistent about the things she wanted to do.

Sure enough, the next second, Su Er met her gaze and smiled slightly, "Sister Qin, just consider this a foolish thing of mine."

The advice she had just given Lin Shuqin left her exhausted. She threw down her pen, leaned back in her chair, and asked, "Do you want to marry him?"

Su Erqian smiled and shook her head, saying, "Sister Qin, I have no plans to get married right now."

Her career is thriving, and she knows exactly what's important.

Lin Shuqin frowned and looked at her with a puzzled expression: "So what exactly are you thinking?"

Su Er paused for a moment, then her voice, like a babbling brook in the mountains, was calm and clear as she said, "I don't want to continue this ambiguous relationship with him. I want to see how far he wants to go with me."

Su Er paused, her tone becoming more firm, "Sister Qin, even if I don't want to get married, I don't want to lose my right to enter into marriage."

To put it simply, it would be that she might not want it, but he couldn't refuse to give it to her.

Whether she wants to get married is one thing, but whether Jiang Siyan wants to marry her is another.

As she spoke, Su Er's thumb unconsciously traced the label on the coffee cup until it was completely unrecognizable. Then she smiled casually and said, "Sister Qin, just this once. If there's no result, I'll give up."

Lin Shuqin looked at her, knowing that she had made up her mind. She pinched the bridge of her nose and reluctantly compromised, "Just this once, Xiao Er."

In January, Su Er's filming in Hengdian finally came to an end.

However, she didn't have a chance to rest. Putting aside the invitations to various galas, the most important thing was a film and television awards ceremony before the end of the year.

Su Er received a Best Supporting Actress nomination for her role in "Spring in the City".

This award is highly recognized by the public and the industry. Although Su Er is confident in herself, the previous failure still seems to be fresh in her mind. Until the very last moment, she is also a little uneasy.

Moreover, the things she wanted to do and the results she wanted to verify were all within reach.

Even if she spoke so nonchalantly, when the moment actually came, Su Er wished that the time she spent loving him without any distractions could pass more slowly.

"Something on your mind?" Jiang Siyan came out after changing into his home clothes and saw Su Er staring blankly in the mirror. The makeup artist was drawing her eyebrows as if painting on a doll's face.

Jiang Siyan returned home early tonight, which was unusual for him, while Su Erli was still a while away from home.

Su Er blinked, snapped out of her daze, and naturally changed her expression, saying, "I'm nervous. I'm always nominated but never win. I'm practically a professional runner-up."

She has had a really bad run of winning awards. Since her debut, she has received many nominations, both big and small, but she has not won many truly influential awards.

Jiang Siyan leaned down as if no one else was around, sniffed her ear, and whispered, "When did our Er'er become so insecure about herself?"

Su Er poked his face away from hers, which was too close, and glanced at Lin Shuqin's expression. "I'm putting on makeup, don't bother me."

The makeup artist quickly finished the job, showing great tact.

"Ahem." Lin Shuqin coughed lightly. "I'll bring the photographer to take departure photos in ten minutes."

A large group of people went out in a grand procession. As soon as the door closed, the sensation of Su Er sitting on the soft cushion changed to hard muscles.

Today she wore a gown with a large, flowing skirt, which spread out like a flower fairy emerging from a flower bud.

Su Er glared at him, her warning clear: "You're not allowed to ruin my makeup. We're taking pictures later, and there won't be time to touch it up."

Jiang Siyan raised an eyebrow slightly, his eyes seeming to darken, and said in a tone that was neither too light nor too heavy, "Now that things are so powerful, we can't even kiss?"

Su Er glanced at him, hooked his finger around his hand, and tickled his palm. "Are you angry?"

Jiang Siyan remained silent, and there was no smile on his face.

Su Er anxiously cupped his face and explained, "Oh dear, I'm going to take photos soon, it would be too much trouble for the makeup artist."

Clearly, her explanation had no effect.

"How about I give you a kiss?" Su Er pouted and pressed a lip print onto his cheek with a loud "pop".
