Because she needed to control her weight during filming, Fu Shiqin drove Ling Jiao to a private restaurant that served vegetarian dishes.
As soon as the two sat down, Ling Jiao began to complain.
"If you're here to visit the set, fine, but can you please stop causing trouble? Do you know how much work you've made everyone work today?"
Because he had to do more than ten takes, it added a lot of work for her, the other actors, and various departments.
"I'm just worried about safety," Fu Shiqin said with a smile.
Moreover, that imposing figure was hung so high up, it frightened him just looking at it.
“I used to be involved in period dramas, hanging around all day. I have more experience with that than you.” Ling Jiao looked at him, somewhat angry but also helpless. “If the director weren’t your sister-in-law, she would have kicked you out long ago.”
Fu Shiqin raised his hands in surrender, "I know I was wrong. I promise I will keep quiet tomorrow and not say a word."
Ling Jiao poured water for the two of them, looked at Fu Shiqin in silence for a while, and then said.
“Fu Shiqin, regardless of our relationship, I don’t want you to interfere too much in my work.”
"I'll try my best," Fu Shiqin said with a dry laugh.
He knew she was a serious and dedicated actress, and it seemed he had really angered her on set today.
However, in front of so many people in the crew, she saved him face and didn't lose her temper on the spot.
"It's not about trying, it's about absolutely not interfering," Ling Jiao emphasized once again.
Today, it's because the director is one of our own people, so we can justify whatever nonsense he does.
But if it were another director's film, how could he make such a fuss?
Perhaps he could indeed act recklessly because of the Fu family's wealth, but... she strongly disliked this behavior that interfered too much with her work.
Fu Shiqin was silent for a few seconds, "So if you film kissing or bed scenes with other men, I can't have a problem with that?"
If this were filmed and released, how heartbreaking it would be for him to see it.
"I will try my best to avoid it, but if it's a scene required by the plot, a professional actor must do it." Ling Jiao's attitude was very serious.
In the future, she will try to avoid certain scripts when choosing scripts, but if she comes across an excellent script and there are roles that require her to perform such scenes, she will have to take it on.
"Okay, I won't interfere."
Fu Shiqin knew she was serious, and he didn't want to argue about it with her during their date.
Seeing that he had agreed, Ling Jiao then dropped her previous seriousness and asked.
Where do you want to go tomorrow? What do you want to do?
"It's up to you. If you have somewhere you want to go, we'll go out. If not, you can stay home and rest," Fu Shiqin said considerately.
Their daily filming work is so demanding that they rarely have time to rest.
Ling Jiao thought for a moment and then said.
"Then let's not go out. Let's make dumplings at home tomorrow afternoon. We've been saying for the past few days that we wanted to eat dumplings."
“Okay, then we’ll go grocery shopping tomorrow afternoon after you finish work.” Fu Shiqin nodded in agreement.
However, looking at the person sitting opposite, she was still a little unsure of her current position.
Is he still my ex-boyfriend, or is he just someone who's been removed from the list of exes?
However, now she readily accepts his efforts and intentions, and reciprocates with the same sincerity. This... must mean she's officially a member of his family.
Ling Jiao picked up a piece of food and looked up to meet his gaze.
"Why are you looking at me if you're not eating your vegetables?"
"You look better than the food," Fu Shiqin said with a grin.
Ling Jiao chuckled, took a few bites, and said.
"Hmm, the vegetarian dishes here are really good. Let's pack some for your sister-in-law to take home later."
Fu Shiqin sighed, "You're with me just to get close to my sister-in-law, aren't you?"
