Chapter 49 It's only a matter of time, so why not let me go for a while...
"Cut!" Jiang Ziyi put away the dagger in his hand and slowly descended on the wire.
Under the shade of a tree not far away, Chen Yuan, dressed in a white dress and looking like an immortal, was sitting on a folding chair drinking milk tea.
"Where did you buy this?" The logo on the cup happened to be the one that Jiang Ziyi liked the most.
"It's sponsored by Gu Zhi. He's waiting for you where the nanny car is parked." Chen Yuan passed the message.
"This guy... comes to visit the set too often." Jiang Ziyi pulled the small flower on his braid uncomfortably.
"Because he likes you," Chen Yuan fanned her, "...Then when are you going to agree?" she asked suddenly.
"Answer...agree?" Jiang Ziyi took a half step back, unable to open her eyes due to the bright sunlight. "I never said I would agree to him!" She was as nervous as a cat with its fur standing on end.
"If you keep pestering me like this, isn't it just a matter of time?" Chen Yuan was quite prescient.
"If you don't want to, just reject him as soon as possible and don't waste each other's time."
"He never made it clear... and I didn't have a chance to refuse." Jiang Ziyi squatted down in distress.
"Then don't go to see him now, and keep your distance from him deliberately." Chen Yuan suggested.
"I've already bought milk tea and came to the set. Wouldn't it be impolite to just ignore him?" Jiang Ziyi lowered his head even lower and muttered, "It was also very troublesome to explain when he drove to pick me up at night..."
"He's going to send you home tonight?" Chen Yuan was speechless after hearing this.
"Well, the place where we live is quite convenient... Gu Zhi asked me to send him a message half an hour before getting off work every day, and I have forgotten how I agreed to it." Jiang Ziyi raised his face and looked at his friend half confused and half seeking help.
"...Go find him quickly, there's no hope for him." Doctor Chen diagnosed.
Jiang Ziyi stretched his neck and searched the rows of long tables filled with drinks.
"Jasmine green milk with half sugar and no ice? Here." Gu Zhi handed her the cup that he was holding in his hand.
"Thank you for the expense. I will treat your crew to a drink in a couple of days." Jiang Ziyi clasped his fists.
She also put on full makeup like a demon, with evil eyeliner and vicious black lips, and combined with her businesslike tone and righteous posture, the sense of incongruity was as strong as when Lingna Belle smoked.
"There's no need to be so clear about the amount between you and me." Gu Zhi suppressed his laughter and interrupted Jiang Ziyi who was secretly calculating the amount of the order.
“…Are you tired from filming today?” Jiang Ziyi was wearing a tube top wrapped in gauze, with a thin silver chain wrapped around her lower abdomen. Gu Zhi only took a glance at her and forced his eyes away.
"It's okay. It went pretty smoothly." After work in the morning, more and more people came. Jiang Ziyi bit her straw and asked Gu Zhi to get into her nanny car.
She found that the straps on her shoes were untied, but after twisting them around several times, she still felt it was awkward. The double bows on the outermost side were tied like a big thick lump.
"Let me try." Gu Zhi stared at the red marks on Jiang Ziyi's calves and couldn't help it.
He knelt in front of her, lowered his eyes quietly, twisted the ribbon with two fingers, and wrapped it upwards in circles starting from her ankles, flexibly tying the first knot, then the second... until he touched a bruise on the inside of her calf.
"What's going on?" Gu Zhi asked with a frown.
"I don't know. Maybe I accidentally bumped into something while hanging on the wire." Jiang Ziyi laughed.
"If it hurts during the filming, just tell me, don't be embarrassed." Gu Zhi's fingers gently circled the wound.
"I have a bottle of Yunnan Baiyao in my car. I'll give it to you later. Remember to spray it this afternoon." He finally tidied up his butterfly tail, stood up, and looked back for a moment.
"Well, okay." Jiang Ziyi silently retracted his legs.
"Take a photo and send it to me after you're done." Gu Zhi knew very well what she would do if she was not supervised.
"Oh, yes," Jiang Ziyi recalled the conversation between her and Chen Yuan just now, "Don't come to pick me up tonight."
She tried to refuse again.
"Why, you want to have a midnight snack with others again?" Gu Zhi raised his eyebrows.
"...How did you know I went out for a midnight snack?" Jiang Ziyi and his group were obviously very secretive, and even the paparazzi who were lurking in the store didn't notice them.
"Still with Jiang Jibai, right?" Gu Zhi did not answer her question.
Jiang Jibai is a young actor who is not from a professional background. He was discovered by a scout when he was playing an NPC in an escape room. He is currently in the same crew as Jiang Ziyi.
He plays a disciple of the Emei sect who is bewitched by evil, and has several rival scenes with Jiang Ziyi.
"No...what does this have to do with you?" Jiang Ziyi was almost tricked by him again.
"Is Jiang Jibai a good actor?" Gu Zhi's voice sounded a little depressed.
"He works very hard, but his comprehension is still a little poor. No matter what lines he speaks, his expression is always one of bitterness and hatred. Alas." Whenever it comes to professional fields, Jiang Ziyi's comments are more sharp. The last time she invited Jiang Jibai to have a midnight snack was because she was worried that she would criticize him too harshly during the filming and hurt his self-esteem.
"So you actually don't like him." Gu Zhi almost couldn't stop smiling.
"You don't like Jiang Jibai, but you can have dinner with him; you don't like me either, so why can't you take my car home?" Gu Zhi said confidently.
"You...I..." Jiang Ziyi was unable to come to his senses for a while.
"Jiang Ziyi, I don't want to get anything from you," Gu Zhi looked at her evasive eyes, "I am already very happy just to see you."
"If this doesn't bother you yet, why don't you try... to leave me alone for a while longer?"
