"Stop joking! You know my husband, Lian Sicheng, is very jealous."
Song Ning said seriously, "I don't want you to get into trouble. It's not good for you. After all, you've only just debuted."
Chu Ruobai chuckled softly, "Is Sister afraid that Lian Sicheng will blacklist me? Is Sister worried about me?"
"Yes, he really can do it."
Based on her understanding of Huo Beian, the chauvinistic Huo Beian was absolutely capable of doing it.
Chu Ruobai laughed, "Sister, I'm not afraid of him. He thinks he can blacklist me? It won't be that easy. After all, I'm the son of Asia's richest man."
Upon hearing this, Song Ning nearly spat out her coffee.
"You're kidding me. How could the son of the richest man possibly enter the entertainment industry?" Song Ning took it as a joke.
"I……"
Just as Chu Ruobai was about to say something, the director shouted, "The next scene is about to begin, hurry up and get ready!"
The two quickly stepped forward to prepare for their scenes.
It was almost 6 p.m. when we wrapped up. Today was the last scene.
After filming wrapped, the director hosted a wrap party. The party was filled with a dazzling array of fine wines and delicacies, exuding an enticing aroma.
Everyone sat together, laughter and chatter filling the air. "Thank you all for your hard work. Let me propose a toast," the director suggested, raising his glass.
"cheers."
Everyone raised their glasses, but Song Ning didn't move.
Chu Ruobai immediately took Song Ning's wine glass and placed it in front of him. "You're pregnant. I'll drink it for you."
After saying that, he tilted his head back and drank.
Song Ning was a little embarrassed. "I'll use juice instead."
Everyone began to clink glasses and toast...
After dinner, the director suggested that we sing some songs.
"Let's all sing a song to liven things up? Who wants to go first?" the director said excitedly, taking the microphone.
Chu Ruobai glanced at Song Ning, then stood up. "Director, I'll go first."
"Alright! Next, please welcome Chu Ruobai to sing a song for everyone."
Soon, screams erupted from the private room, many of the actresses screaming, after all, there was a handsome guy singing.
Chu Ruobai picked up the microphone, glanced at Song Ning next to him, and began, "I want to sing 'Confession Balloon'."
After saying that, he cleared his throat and began to sing, "My dear, falling in love with you from that day on, sweetness came so easily... My dear, don't be willful, your eyes say 'I do' again..."
When the song ended, thunderous applause erupted. Song Ning also clapped for him with starry eyes.
I never expected Chu Ruobai to be so young, yet he sings so well and acts so well too. A boy like him is definitely suited to be a star; he's so talented!
Chu Ruobai sat down and looked at her, "Sister, did I sing well just now?"
"It sounds nice."
"I'm glad you like it. I'll sing it for you alone sometime."
Song Ning immediately lowered her head in embarrassment.
Everyone picked up the microphone and sang their hearts out. They ate, sang, and had a great time until almost midnight.
Song Ning was eating in a private room when her phone received a WeChat message from Huo Beian. She opened it and read: "Wife, why aren't you home yet?"
[It's the wrap party for the film crew. I'll be back in a bit.]
After putting down her phone, Song Ning said, "Excuse me, I have to go now. Please enjoy your meal."
She got up and left. When Chu Ruobai saw her leave, he knew that after today, he would have fewer opportunities to see her openly.
After all, the next time we meet might be at a press conference.
There were some things he felt he had to say, because if he didn't, he would never have the chance again.
"Excuse me, I'll be going now."
Chu Ruobai also got up and left...
Song Ning was getting ready to go home. She went to the underground parking garage and was about to get into her car when Chu Ruobai called out to her.
"Sister, let me treat you to dinner."
"No need. My husband is still waiting for me at home."
Song Ning refused outright.
"Oh dear, it seems my sister is quite henpecked. So afraid of making her husband angry." Chu Ruobai pouted.
"You'll know when you have a girlfriend. By the way, what kind of girl do you like? I can introduce you to one."
Song Ning thought to herself, "Chu Ruobai should hurry up and find a girlfriend. Otherwise, she'll keep bothering him." She had a vague feeling that he might have feelings for her.
Chu Ruobai looked at her with deep affection, his tone suddenly becoming serious, "I like someone like Sister Song Ning..."
"..." Song Ning was speechless. "Chu Ruobai, I told you not to make jokes like this with me. It's not funny at all."
The next second, Chu Ruobai stepped forward, pressed her against the car door, and lowered his head to kiss her lips.
"Ugh..." Song Ning's eyes widened, and she immediately pushed him away after realizing what was happening.
"Chu Ruobai, what are you doing!" She slapped him angrily. "Chu Ruobai, wake up!"
But before her slap could land, Chu Ruobai reached out his long, slender hand and grabbed her raised wrist, preventing it from hitting his face.
He looked at her with deep affection and began to confess, "Sister Song Ning, I'm not joking. I like you. I liked you from the first time I saw you."
Hearing Chu Ruobai's confession, Song Ning was speechless. "Chu Ruobai, can you please wake up! I'm married, and I'm pregnant with Lian Sicheng's child. You're confessing to me? Isn't this ridiculous?"
Chu Ruobai didn't let go, but instead placed her hand on his chest and continued to speak tenderly, "I'm not being unreasonable. Sister, divorce Lian Sicheng and be with me. I don't mind the child. I just want you by my side."
When Song Ning heard his confession, her ears turned red and burned. Her hand, through his clothes, touched Chu Ruobai's chest, feeling its heat and throbbing.
Her hunch was right; Chu Ruobai really did like her.
What should we do?
Let's just refuse outright.
"Chu Ruobai, I don't like you. Don't delude yourself. There's no future for us."
A trace of sadness flashed in Chu Ruobai's eyes, but she continued, unwilling to give up, "Is it because you're married that you won't agree to be with me? If you were single now, would you consider being with me?"
Song Ning was somewhat speechless. "Yes. If I weren't married, I might still consider it with you. But I'm married now, and I have to uphold my wifely duties. Besides, I love Lian Sicheng very much, and Lian Sicheng loves me very much too. We went through many hardships to be together. Our love is stronger than you think."
"Very determined? Is that so?"
Chu Ruobai chuckled softly, "But when we were filming the kissing scene together, I clearly felt that you were very sensitive to me, and just now when I kissed you, I also felt that you clearly had feelings for me. Since you love your husband so much, why did you have a physical reaction to me?"
These words immediately made Song Ning feel embarrassed, and her face turned red.
He's right. My love for Huo Beian is unwavering. Why do I feel something when I'm filming kissing scenes with Chu Ruobai?
It's probably a bodily instinct, after all, humans are animals.
