Chapter 102 I Didn’t Deny Thinking of Her on the Phone
When Shen Lai arrived at the crew, he unexpectedly saw an old acquaintance here.
"Wu Qi?" Shen Lai asked in surprise, "Why are you here too?"
Wu Qi was also a little surprised, "The director asked me to play a cameo role, and you are here too."
Shen Lai didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that the crew invited both her and Wu Qi at the same time.
"The director also asked me to play a guest role, and I thought I was the only one coming," said Shen Lai.
Wu Qi gets a headache when she mentions this. "Don't say it, I originally refused, but the director insisted that I come, saying that I only need to show up and I don't even need to say any lines."
It's obvious that the director invited them because of the popularity of the first two variety shows. Originally, this kind of thing should have been done by the other three female guests, but Tong Miaoling and Bai Hansui's reputations were ruined, otherwise it might not have been her turn.
But no matter what, both of them are here, so at least filming won’t be boring these days.
At this time, Shen Lai noticed Yan Rui behind Wu Qi. The other party also saw her and smiled slightly.
Shen Lai nodded at him.
She quietly moved to Wu Qi's side and bumped her shoulder with her arm. "You two are so loving, aren't you? He even accompanied you to the filming."
Wu Qi curled her lips and said, "He just happened to come here for something, not to accompany me."
Shen Lai could see that the two had feelings for each other, otherwise they would not have behaved that way on the show.
However, the way Dai Jingxuan and Tong Miaoling get along is a bit strange.
Shen Lai asked quietly, "You two have reconciled?"
When this was mentioned, Wu Qi's expression became a little strange, and he coughed unnaturally, "Is that so?"
Shen Lai's curiosity was piqued. While Yan Rui wasn't paying attention, she moved closer to Wu Qi and couldn't help but gossip, "What happened in the hotel? Did he really check into a room with his mistress?"
The two had become familiar with each other through variety shows during this period. Wu Qi already regarded Shen Lai as a good friend. Seeing her ask this, he did not hide it from her anymore, "That mistress is his sister."
Shen Lai was a little surprised, "He has a younger sister?"
Wu Qi nodded, "She was adopted by their family, not her biological sister."
"So that's how it is..." Shen Lai didn't finish his words. As if he had discovered some shocking secret, he suddenly opened his eyes wide and covered his mouth in disbelief, "So he and his sister..."
Wu Qi said helplessly: "What are you thinking? He did go to the hotel that day, but he didn't sleep with his sister."
Shen Lai finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If something really happened between the two of them, it would be terrible.
"I was so scared! I thought he was an orthopedic surgeon." Shen Lai said puzzledly, "But since he didn't have sex, why did the paparazzi say they went to a hotel?"
When this was mentioned, Wu Qi's expression became somewhat serious. "Because his sister has a crush on him."
A hint of surprise flashed across Shen Lai's face, "Secret love?"
Wu Qi nodded heavily.
Yan Rui has always treated Yan Yiyi as his own sister, but Yan Yiyi doesn't think so. After spending a long time with Yan Rui, she has already fallen in love with him.
Especially after she knew that she was the adopted daughter of the Yan family, she began to have thoughts that she shouldn't have.
When Wu Qi first started dating Yan Rui, Yan Yiyi found all kinds of excuses to stick to Yan Rui. She already felt something was wrong at the time, but Yan Rui always said that Yan Yiyi was his sister and was just used to sticking to him since childhood, so even though she felt uncomfortable, she still endured it.
Until that day when she received Yan Yiyi's message and went to the hotel, she saw Yan Yiyi pestering Yan Rui to go to bed, and the conflict between the two finally broke out.
Although Yan Rui later explained that it was Yan Yiyi who threatened him to go find her by committing suicide, Wu Qi could no longer bear it and proposed to break up.
She didn't blame Yan Rui for going to the hotel to find Yan Yiyi, but blamed him for being indecisive and entangled.
Who can accept that her boyfriend is always having an ambiguous relationship with her adopted sister?
Shen Lai asked curiously, "What about now?"
Wu Qi shrugged, "Yan Rui has blocked her sister, and the two have cut off contact."
Chen Lai could understand it. If Pei Jingyan had an adopted sister like this, she wouldn't be able to stand it either.
Then he realized something and suddenly shuddered.
Why did she suddenly think of Pei Jingyan again?
Just at this moment, the director came over to inform the two of them to read together, and the topic came to an abrupt end. Wu Qi asked Yan Rui to wait for her outside and followed Shen Lai into the room.
An hour had passed since we finished reading the script.
Chen Lai parted ways with Wu Qi and Yan Rui on the set. Her agent sent her back to the hotel to rest. As soon as she sat down and took out her cell phone, she saw Pei Jingyan had called her several times.
I was working just now, so Shen Lai's phone was on silent mode and I didn't hear anything.
Chen Lai poured a glass of water and called Pei Jingyan back.
The phone rang twice before being connected. Pei Jingyan's lazy, magnetic voice came from the other end, "Is the reading over?"
Shen Lai stretched and said, "Yeah, it just ended."
"When is the filming?"
"It seems to be tomorrow." Shen Lai asked doubtfully: "What's wrong?"
Pei Jingyan leaned back in his chair casually, saying, "Nothing, just asking."
Shen Lai pursed his lips and said casually, "You don't miss me, do you?"
The other end of the phone suddenly became quiet, and Shen Lai's heart tightened inexplicably. She suddenly felt a little annoyed when she asked this question. Just as she was about to change the subject, Pei Jingyan slowly said, "It's a bit strange that there's no one chattering at home all of a sudden."
Chen Lai paused, then realized belatedly that Pei Jingyan was hinting that she was usually a loudspeaker?
Shen Lai said unhappily, "You're the one chattering!"
Pei Jingyan's lips curled up slightly. He changed his posture to pick up his phone and said lazily, "When will you be back?"
Shen Lai snorted coldly, not bothering to argue with him, "If nothing unexpected happens, it should be the day after tomorrow."
Pei Jingyan hummed calmly, "If I'm free that day, I might consider picking you up."
"Who cares if you pick me up?"
Although he said this, the corners of Shen Lai's lips still curled up slightly.
The two chatted for a long time, and neither of them suggested hanging up the phone.
Until the phone fell silent, Shen Lai hesitated for a moment before slowly saying, "I have to get up early tomorrow, so I'll go to bed first?"
Pei Jingyan said calmly, "Go ahead."
Shen Lai said "oh", she held the phone away, looked at the page where the call was going on, and pressed the hang-up button after several seconds.
After hanging up the phone, Shen Lai lay down on the bed. She looked at the ceiling, suddenly thought of something, and suddenly sat up again.
Just now, Pei Jingyan didn't seem to deny that he missed her on the phone.
Thinking of this, Shen Lai seemed to realize something and shook his head vigorously.
wrong.
Why does she care so much about what Pei Jingyan wants her to do?
Could it be that she really fell in love with Pei Jingyan?
Shen Lai's mind was in a mess. She lay back on the bed and looked at the call record with Pei Jingyan in her mobile phone address book. She was no longer sleepy.
Early the next morning, Shen Lai arrived at the set to film.
Although it was his first time filming a movie, the role was not complicated and Shen Lai had specially signed up for acting classes, so the progress in the morning was relatively smooth.
During the break, Shen Lai went to a corner to rest. Just as she was about to take out her cell phone, a staff member suddenly bumped into her from behind.
Shen Lai didn't hold the phone firmly and it fell to the ground.
"Excuse me."
The staff member apologized in a low voice and left quickly. Shen Lai picked up his phone, frowned and looked at the other person's back as he left. He felt that he looked a little familiar.
