Su Yinyin wanted to refute for a moment, but fell silent. What Lu Jingxu said was indeed right. With her own skills, she could not reach that state of being able to immerse herself in the role with ease.
Gu Jiu suggested: "We can't continue filming your scenes today, so let's film other scenes first. I'll give you two days to get used to each other. Is that okay?"
Su Yinyin felt a little guilty that the filming was delayed because of her own reasons, but then she thought that it would be difficult for her to film a good scene with Lu Jingxu in her current condition.
So he compromised and said, "Okay."
──
Lu Jingxu felt that something was wrong with him these past few days, and nothing he ate seemed to suit his appetite.
Although he was a bit picky about food before, ever since Su Yinyin moved in and started cooking for him, he seems to like everything he eats.
He just chose to have an attack when things were going wrong between the two of them.
Lu Jingxu was relatively free tonight, so he stayed in his room. He had just turned a page of his book and forgot to turn on silent mode on his phone when Gu Jiu called him.
"Have you had dinner? Come over and have some wine."
"I've eaten, so I won't come."
Gu Jiu made a "tsk" sound over there, and a faint voice came from the other end of the microphone.
"Sister Su is so domineering, have another drink."
“No, no, I really can’t drink anymore…”
He was silent for a while, and just when Gu Jiu thought he was going to hang up the phone, Lu Jingxu suddenly said something.
"What time do you finish drinking?"
Gu Jiu lifted his sleeves and looked at his watch: "It's around nine o'clock, maybe half past ten."
"Oh," Lu Jingxu hung up the phone.
Gu Jiu felt a little confused holding the phone. Did this mean he would come or not? But he didn't think much about it and continued drinking with others.
Lu Jingxu turned off the lights, lay down on the bed on time and closed his eyes. He always slept well and fell asleep almost as soon as he touched the pillow.
I don’t know what happened today. I’ve been tossing and turning in bed for twenty minutes, but I still can’t feel sleepy at all.
He lifted the quilt and sat on the edge of the bed, struggling for another ten minutes.

At the barbecue stall, the director did not take the lead and got drunk with a group of staff. They huddled together and there were almost no sober people.
Fortunately, this place is not far from the hotel and there are many Chinese people there, so it is not a problem to find someone to take me back to the hotel to sleep.
But Su Yinyin is a girl, and it’s so late, so it’s still a little unsafe.
So until the banquet was over, Gu Jiu still hadn't figured out his placement.
She was lying on the table at this time, waiting for Gu Jiu to contact the female staff of the crew to come and pick her up to the hotel.
His fingers tapped the table intermittently, and it sounded quite rhythmic.
"Director...they're probably all asleep by now. I can go back by myself."
As she spoke, she stood up to prove herself: "If you don't believe me, look, I can still walk in a straight line."
Gu Jiu looked over with half belief and half doubt. Su Yinyin's footsteps drew a perfect arc on this small field. After walking this distance, she even proudly made a "yeah" gesture to Gu Jiu.
“…”
Gu Jiu felt that if he believed that she could go back alone today, she would definitely appear in a strange place in the hotel when he woke up tomorrow morning.
Maybe it will even be featured in local social news newspapers.
However, just when he was struggling with how to take the person back in a tactful way without scaring others and causing them to have fantasies.
A familiar yet strange figure appeared on the roadside around eleven o'clock.
For a moment, Gu Ju thought that he had drunk too much and was hallucinating, as he actually saw Lu Jingxu at this time.
As a good friend of Lu Jingxu's since I met him in junior high school, I have never seen him after 10 o'clock in the middle of the night.
He firmly believed that he must have seen it wrong, Gu Jiu muttered to himself, until the next second, this familiar figure finally appeared in front of him.
Then they passed each other, and just as I raised my hand to greet him, he cruelly ignored me.
"scene…"
He stared back and saw Lu Jingxu standing in front of Su Yinyin, who was lying on the table drunk and unconscious, with his hands in his pockets, looking down at her.
"Can you still stand up and walk on your own?"
Su Yinyin seemed to hear someone talking to her in a daze. She opened her eyes with great effort and saw the person's face clearly. She thought she was still dreaming the same dream.
He lowered his eyelids again and muttered, "Stupid..."
The vein on Lu Jingxu's forehead twitched. He didn't know what the man lying on the ground was babbling about, but it seemed that he was indeed out of his mind.
"Why did you let her drink so much?" Lu Jingxu glanced at Gu Jiu, making him tremble all over.
"It's unfair! I tried to persuade her, but she insisted on drinking. You didn't see it just now, but she got all three men at our table drunk. A woman is just as capable as a man. Awesome!"
However, Gu Jiu did not see any joy in Lu Jingxu's eyes. Instead, he felt that the look he gave him was getting colder.
Lu Jingxu stood aside and watched silently for a while, then raised his hand to lift Su Yinyin's hand onto his shoulder. Halfway through the action, Gu Ju asked, "Are you taking her back?"
"Or you can send it?"
He borrowed a car and drove over, throwing the drunk Su Yinyin into the back seat, and Gu Jiu followed with eager eyes.
"Take me with you, Brother Lu."
Lu Jingxu felt sick at his sudden address: "If you call me that again, you'll stay here in the cold wind all night."
Gu Jiu smiled triumphantly, sat in the passenger seat, fastened his seat belt, and his gossipy spirit was burning.
"You're so up late that you're still trying to pick someone up. This isn't a simple matter. Honestly, what's your relationship with the person behind you?"
