"Okay, since you want to act so badly, I'll ask them to arrange a role for you in a few days."
"In a few days... forget it, I was just kidding."
She and Sun Qingyan had promised that she would only stay here for one day. If she waited until her guest appearance was over, Sun Qingyan would probably start to think about all sorts of things again.
Three years ago, after Lu Jingxu had a car accident, Sun Qingyan asked him to focus on the Sun family, but she was unwilling to do so and wanted to wait and see after the costume drama was broadcast.
Who would have known that during the same period, Su Yinyin's fantasy drama came out of nowhere, leading to a wave of phenomenal hit dramas. Although Su Yinyin is no longer in China, it has not affected her domestic traffic growth at all. Even after three years, many fans have been waiting for her return.
However, his own drama flopped silently, and because of the casting controversy, it was repeatedly compared with Su Yinyin's drama. Many people felt that it was a good thing that Su Yinyin did not get the role, otherwise she would not have been able to create this fairy tale myth.
Lu Jingxu turned his head away, not caring about what she was agonizing about, and closed his eyes to rest. Zhao Jing seemed dissatisfied with the quiet atmosphere and suddenly came to disturb his sweet dream again:
"Oh, by the way, I haven't asked you yet, who is the lead actor in your drama?"
Lu Jingxu frowned, then calmed down and said, "The male lead is the new generation Wu Weiqing, and you know the female lead, she's Su Yinyin, the actress who returned from abroad and whom you introduced last time."
Zhao Jing's heart trembled, and she sat up straight from the car seat: "What?"
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Lu Jingxu raised his eyebrows, waiting for her next reaction.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier that you were working with her?"
Zhao Jing suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of crisis. Why was this Su Yinyin's first film since returning to China, and why at this time? Was it Su Yinyin's own scheme, or—she shifted her gaze to Lu Jingxu, who sat beside her, his eyes dark and unclear: Lu Jingxu was hiding something.
Her eyes shone fiercely: "Jing Xu, are you hiding something from me?"
Lu Jingxu, worthy of being a movie star, had a quick change of mood. He immediately put on a puzzled expression:
"Why do you ask? Didn't you tell me last time we met that we knew each other? And I've seen her award-winning work while she was abroad. It's safe to say she's one of the top actresses in China, both in terms of image and professional ability. It's a blessing for our crew to have her on board."
Zhao Jing was suspicious, but seeing Lu Jingxu's answer without blushing or beating her heart, she suddenly began to wonder if she was thinking too much.
"Really? You really didn't lie to me?"
Lu Jingxu glanced sideways, his tone dragging out a little, "But you... why are you reacting so strongly? I was also wondering if you were hiding something from me."
Zhao Jing panicked upon hearing this, instantly losing her composure. "How...how is that possible? You're overthinking it. I just think Su Yinyin is so beautiful and talented, and I'm afraid she'll trick you into leaving me...I'm just a little insecure, that's all. You're not blaming me for this, are you?"
"You're overthinking it."
Zhao Jing nodded quickly to comfort herself. "Yes, I'm overthinking it. I hope I'm overthinking it. Jing Xu, can you promise me that you won't abandon me? Now... you're all I have."
Lu Jingxu sneered in his heart: This woman really doesn't tell the truth at all.
He didn't answer and turned away. Zhao Jing wanted to say something else to him, but he interrupted her first: "I'm tired."
Zhao Jing had no choice but to withdraw her hand in disappointment.
Arriving at the hotel and booking a room, Zhao Jing pulled him to go with her, but he cleverly dodged her hand: "It's getting late, you should get some rest. I'm going upstairs first."
Zhao Jing blurted out her words and looked at Lu Jingxu's back without turning back. She fell into deep thought, and Sun Qingyan's words rang in her ears again.
"He doesn't seem to like you at all."
Who said it wasn't true? Zhao Jing had seen how he treated Su Yinyin, that kind of gentle look that was about to melt the other person in his eyes, but Lu Jingxu had never looked at her like that.
Even though this person was tied to her side, she clearly felt that she was not the heroine of his life.
This emotion quickly dissipated, but so what? As long as I am still the protagonist of the novel titled "The Fugitive White Moonlight is Hard to Let Go", that is enough.
She picked up her bag and walked to her room.
──
At the opening ceremony the next day, Su Yinyin arrived at the scene wearing a sun hat and casual clothes. The staff had already arrived one after another.
She asked Liu Yue to help order a cup of milk tea for each staff member on site.
A man carrying a camera bag was chatting with his colleague next to him.
"Hey, I don't know any of the actors here. They're all young actors. They made me wake up so early."
"Brother, just be content. I was also sent here by our unit. I didn't even ask for food. If it was really a big production, they wouldn't have let me come."
The man lowered his head to adjust the camera and shook his head. "It's just a cover. They say they have a top-notch domestic production team and are talking about the ultimate martial arts. I think they're just selling nostalgia and making money."
As they were talking, it was time for the leading actor to go on stage to speak. The two stood up, raised their cameras and focused on the stage.
The two of them were standing quite far back, making it difficult to see the faces of the people on the stage clearly. As they turned around, they both exclaimed "Eh" at the same time.
"Brother, did you find out too?"
"I thought I was dreaming."
"Shit, I feel like I'm getting a promotion."
“It really feels like a dream.”
…
After completing the entire process, the entire crew took a group photo. Su Yinyin stood in the middle, holding up a red envelope given by the crew with the words "Good luck in starting the filming of Fengyunyu" written on it, and smiled at the camera.
She rushed to the dressing room in the nanny car and took a photo.
Twenty minutes after the opening ceremony, the entry "Su Yinyin returns to China" became a hot search.
[It’s her, it’s her, it’s really her, I’m really moved to tears]
[Do you know how long I've been waiting? I'm finally back, my girl.]
Ahhhhhhhhhh I must be dreaming.
[Has the domestic entertainment industry, which has been quiet for so long, been holding back on this explosive news?]
[I have lost a lot of weight and my temperament has become more mature]
[I woke my roommate up early in the morning with a yell...]
