Ten days later, at night.
Genting Apartments, living room.
The air was filled with a faint scent of orange blossom.
Su Qianqian was wearing soft, milky-white loungewear, sinking into the large, comfortable sofa like a lazy cat.
She was holding a fluffy cushion in her arms, resting her chin on it, seemingly lost in thought, but her bright almond-shaped eyes were actually fixed on the virtual screen floating in front of her.
That was the image that System 007 had retrieved for her.
The screen is split in two.
To the left, in the Yun Que private room, Chen Que and the others were making a fuss. Gu Chengyu, barely maintaining his arrogance, stubbornly said, "There are still half a month left. Lin Shu will definitely ask to get back together."
On the right is the café the next day, where Lin Shu, dressed up carefully, sits stiffly, looking lost and bewildered.
Su Qianqian's fingertips unconsciously twirled the fluff on the pillow.
Looking at Lin Shu's distraught face, her pink lips curved into a smile, like a cunning little fox.
Feeling lost?
She can make her less lost.
A soft sound came from the entrance hall as the door opened.
Su Qianqian immediately sprang up from the sofa like a cheerful little bird, her bare feet clicking on the soft carpet as she went to greet him.
"Young Master Gu! You're back!" The voice was sweet and soft, filled with undisguised joy.
Gu Chengyu had just taken off his suit jacket and casually draped it over the entryway cabinet.
Then I saw a girl rushing up to me, her little face upturned, her eyes sparkling.
"Mmm," he responded, naturally reaching out to ruffle her soft hair.
Su Qianqian took the opportunity to hug his arm and began to chatter, "Are you hungry? Aunt Zhang stewed some bird's nest, and it's still warm."
"I practiced dancing today, and my teacher said I've completely graduated."
She tilted her little face up, full of pride and a desire for praise, "The director even asked if I was ready for the courtesan's dance scene, which we're filming tomorrow, and whether we need to postpone it."
"I said there was no need for an extension, and we should try to get it approved in one take."
Gu Chengyu was infected by her energetic appearance, and the corners of his lips curled up slightly as he let her take his arm and walk towards the living room.
He lowered his eyes, looking at the girl's fair and cheerful face, and her surprisingly bright eyes.
His little girl was unusually talkative and unusually... excited today?
He was subtly dragged to the sofa by her and sat down.
Su Qianqian immediately sat down next to him, naturally leaning against him, and continued, "Brother Wang called me at noon, asking if I was confident about my scenes tomorrow. Newcomers can't be nervous, they need to be camera-savvy..."
Gu Chengyu stretched out his long arm and pulled her even tighter into his embrace.
His chin rested on the top of her hair, which exuded a faint fragrance. His eyes were closed, and his nose was filled with her sweet and soft scent as he listened to her chattering about her daily life.
The things she said about bird's nest, dance practice, Brother Wang, and the new script were all trivial matters, but when the girl said them, they sounded so beautiful.
Until she seemed to have said everything she could, only her soft breathing remained in the living room.
Gu Chengyu slowly opened his eyes, his phoenix eyes filled with a knowing, playful look. He lowered his head and nuzzled her forehead with his chin: "Finished? Hmm?"
Su Qianqian felt ticklish from his rubbing, so she shrank her neck, her face slightly flushed, and looked up at him with her big, watery almond-shaped eyes. Her eyes held a hint of guilt at being seen through, but also a bit of anticipation: "...Okay, I'm done talking."
