Pei Qing looked at her coldly: "Did you do that on purpose?"
Liu Nian sobbed, her words choked with emotion: "It wasn't intentional."
Pei Qing frowned. He hadn't said anything yet, so why was this woman crying?
"Why are you crying? Hurry up and get me a new costume!"
He wanted to scold her, but seeing Liu Nian's expressive face, he held back.
Liu Nian immediately smiled and said, "Okay!"
Then they ran away very fast.
Pei Qing: "..." The speed at which he changed his expression.
Feng Guiyu witnessed everything, and seeing Liu Nian leave, he followed without thinking.
Liu Nian, who was helping Pei Qing get her costume, naturally knew that Feng Guiyu had followed her. She pretended not to know, picked out a costume that was similar in color to the one Pei Qing had just worn, and carried it out.
Feng Guiyu was standing at the door watching her when Liu Nian turned around and saw him.
She looked at Feng Guiyu with an expression that was a mixture of surprise and unease.
Life is all about acting, and Liu Nian's expression is spot-on and natural.
"Mr. Feng..."
Ever since Feng Guiyu gave her the "friend card," Liu Nian automatically changed how she addressed him, regardless of whether they were siblings or not; the main point was to maintain a sense of distance.
Upon hearing her address, Feng Guiyu's expression changed, and he became somewhat irritated.
"What are you doing? How did you get here?"
Liu Nian's acting was on point; she looked at him with confusion, not understanding Feng Guiyu's expression just now.
"I work here! But Mr. Feng, what are you doing here?"
Isn't he quite busy?
Instead of answering, Feng Guiyu asked, "Work? What kind of work do you do? Serving tea and water to people?"
Liu Nian's face stiffened, and she looked very hurt.
"What's wrong with serving tea and water? Is it bothering you, Mr. Feng?"
Feng Guiyu looked at her with a deep gaze, paused for a moment, and sighed: "You don't need to do this kind of work here. Your family company is always ready to welcome you. I will have Guitu arrange a job for you."
The passing years wore a mocking expression.
"No, please. I'm just an adopted daughter of the Feng family. Now that I can support myself, how can I still depend on the Feng family!"
"Mr. Feng, please don't be nice to me anymore. I've thought it through. I've let go of my feelings for you, so Mr. Feng, please don't come looking for me."
Feng Guiyu felt a sudden pang in his heart. He disliked Liu Nian's distant attitude towards him, and without thinking, he said, "Don't be temperamental. You're my sister, it's only right that I treat you well. Don't do this because..."
He couldn't continue speaking because Liu Nian's eyes turned red.
Liu Nian stared at him, her eyes slightly red, her tightly pursed lips a little pale, looking like she had been wronged.
Gui Yu actually thought she was throwing a tantrum! Good for her! She'd show him. Was she just being dramatic or was she serious?
Feng Guiyu felt even more uncomfortable after being slightly stunned by her appearance.
His voice softened as he spoke.
"It's been a long time since I've seen you. Let's have dinner together tonight."
Liu Nian hung his head and remained silent.
The air was quiet for a moment.
Liu Nian's phone rang.
It was Pei Qing's agent calling.
Realizing that she had wasted a lot of time coming to get her clothes, she ignored Feng Guiyu and turned to slip away.
She had just walked past him when her arm was grabbed.
"Niannian, shall I pick you up tonight?"
Feng Guiyu disliked the feeling of being ignored by Liu Nian, which made him inexplicably unhappy.
Liu Nian nodded: "No need." After saying that, she shook off his hand and slipped away.
Feng Guiyu stood behind her, watching her departing figure. After a moment of contemplation, he finally sighed.
After Liu Nian returned to Pei Qing's side, she handed him the clothes.
There were tents set up nearby as temporary changing rooms.
Pei Qing glanced at her, then took the clothes and left.
"System, is he portrayed as a deeply affectionate character?!"
System: "Yes."
"It's definitely more difficult for men."
Being an assistant to a movie star is not as free as being an extra. You have to go to work early and get off work late. Running around all day, especially in the sweltering heat, is really tiring.
After a busy day, it was already past 11 p.m., and my phone was full of missed calls.
Looking at Feng Guiyu's call history, Liu Nian raised an eyebrow.
Thinking back to what he said during the day about coming to pick her up, but the film crew changed the shooting location at the last minute, it seems that Feng Guiyu couldn't find her there, which is why he made so many phone calls.
However, since she had already refused, she felt no burden. Her strategy for winning over Feng Guiyu was not yet complete, and she did not want to see him.
But as soon as she arrived downstairs at her rented apartment, she saw a car that looked familiar.
Feng Guiyu!
No way!
System: "Host, it's the male lead, Feng Guiyu."
fleeting time:"……"
You were right.
As she approached, the car door opened, and a man dressed casually stepped out, looking at Liu Nian with a hint of anger in his eyes.
Why aren't you answering the phone?
"I didn't notice."
Since Feng Guiyu isn't interested in her, she can't be too enthusiastic, or she'll just be met with indifference.
Her cold attitude made Feng Guiyu feel uncomfortable and uneasy.
"Niannian, please don't be so willful, okay?"
Liu Nian nodded: "I wasn't being willful."
"Then why don't you want to go out to eat with your older brother?"
"avoid arousing suspicion."
Feng Guiyu: "..."
avoid arousing suspicion……
Liu Nian didn't care about him. She was quite tired after a busy day and just wanted to go home, wash up, and go to sleep.
"If you're not busy, you should go back now! It's too late to invite you up."
Feng Guiyu frowned and pursed his lips.
“I’ve come to take you home. It’s not safe for a girl like you to live alone outside.”
