The following afternoon.
Lin Shu was in a rare good mood.
Gu Chengyu actually came to visit the set!
Although the man remained languid and arrogant, lounging on the sofa in her lounge with his long legs crossed and his fingertips tapping the armrest absently, he remained indifferent to the topics she brought up…
But he came.
This is a signal.
This shows that her feigned indifference and heartfelt accusations in the backstage corridor last time still left a mark on his heart.
Lin Shu sat in front of the dressing mirror touching up her makeup. Looking at the handsome and noble man on the sofa in the mirror, she couldn't help but smile.
She knew she couldn't remain stubborn; she needed to send signals of reconciliation.
Lin Shu softened her voice, her tone ingratiating: "Chengyu, the director of this film is Director Wang, you know, he's extremely demanding."
"I had to do this emotional outburst scene several times, but thankfully we got it right in the end..."
She tried to share the difficulties she faced at work in an attempt to gain sympathy.
Gu Chengyu didn't even lift his eyelids, and just hummed in response.
His mind was clearly not on that; his gaze swept seemingly unintentionally across the door of the lounge.
Why isn't the young lady coming in yet?
Has she been staying outside the whole time? It's so hot outside, how can her delicate body withstand it...?
Undeterred, Lin Shu continued to find topics to talk about: "The crew is having a small dinner party tonight, right next to the film studio. Director Wang is going too. If you're free..."
Just then, the door to the lounge was gently pushed open.
Su Qianqian walked in carrying two freshly brewed cups of coffee, her head down.
She was still wearing a simple T-shirt and jeans, with those black-rimmed glasses perched on her nose, trying her best to be a transparent little assistant.
She gently placed a cup of coffee on the dressing table next to Lin Shu: "Sister Shu, here's your coffee."
Then, she picked up another cup, lowered her head, and walked towards Gu Chengyu on the sofa.
Just as she approached, preparing to place the coffee on the low table next to him, Gu Chengyu, who had been keeping his eyes down, raised his gaze and stared at her blatantly.
Su Qianqian was caught off guard and bumped into his deep eyes.
The coldness he showed when facing Lin Shu was gone, replaced by a smile and doting affection.
Su Qianqian's heart skipped a beat, her hand trembled, and the coffee in her cup almost spilled.
She quickly regained her composure, bent down swiftly, and placed the coffee on the low table.
Looking at her frightened little rabbit-like appearance, Gu Chengyu's lips curled into a tiny smile.
His long, slender fingers picked up the coffee cup, but his gaze remained fixed on her lowered head, carrying a silent teasing and hint.
Lin Shu was adjusting her earrings in front of the mirror and didn't see the two exchanging glances.
She saw Su Qianqian still standing there after putting down her coffee, frowned, and was about to tell her to leave—
"Teacher Lin, let's add a close-up shot. The director said the previous take was good, and we need to add another close-up." The production assistant's voice came from outside the door.
Lin Shu was interrupted and was somewhat displeased, but when she heard that the director had requested a close-up shot, she immediately stood up.
