One month later.
Living room of Genting Apartments.
The hands of the wall clock slid past ten o'clock.
Gu Chengyu leaned back on the sofa, flipping through a financial magazine, but his eyes were unfocused, glancing occasionally toward the entrance.
He exuded a sense of resentment at being neglected.
This is already the second week of filming for "The Flames of War" ahead of schedule.
For the first half of the month, although the crew had not officially started filming, Qianqian seemed to be completely absorbed by the script.
I spend my days with the acting coach and my evenings with the script.
They either pace back and forth in the living room muttering to themselves, or curl up on the small sofa, frowning and immersed in their own world.
He offered to hold her while watching a soap opera, but she seemed distracted.
Want to tease her into talking? She responded with a couple of perfunctory "uh-huhs" and "ah-ahs," her mind clearly not on him.

She listlessly changed into slippers, intending to drift straight back to her bedroom.
"You're back?" Gu Chengyu's deep voice sounded, tinged with resentment.
Su Qianqian then noticed him on the sofa and stopped in her tracks.
She gave a somewhat hesitant "Mmm," then asked, "Ah Yu, are you still waiting for me?"
Gu Chengyu was initially angry.
But seeing her so exhausted that she looked like she was about to fall apart, my dissatisfaction was mostly washed away by my heartache, but the feeling of being ignored was still there.
He put down the magazine he couldn't even look at and held out his hand to her: "Come here."
Su Qianqian slowly moved over, and as soon as she got close to the sofa, he grabbed her with his long arm and made her fall onto his strong thighs.
