…
After a two-hour flight, Zhou Cheng arrived in Y City at 10:30, having already missed his appointment with Su Jing. He immediately sent a message to Su Jing after getting off the plane, and then took a taxi to Mingshan.
When he arrived at the foot of Mingshan Mountain, it was already 11:30. All five regular cast members and the invited guests for that episode had arrived; he was the only one who had just arrived.
The director's crew of about a dozen people were sitting and chatting on the side. I don't know what they were saying, but they all burst into laughter.
Zhou Cheng dragged his suitcase over and said, "Sorry I'm late."
He pulled down his mask and smiled apologetically at everyone.
His gaze swept across the faces of the guests in front of him, finally landing on Han Ye, who was laughing and joking.
Zhou Cheng's smile deepened, and he said, "Han Ye, I've long admired your name."
"..." Han Ye, who was eating sunflower seeds, was dumbfounded. He looked up at Zhou Cheng, who was smiling at him, and was a little confused about the situation.
What happened?
The Best Actor this week told me he'd heard so much about me?
Isn't that backwards? It's clearly him who has long admired Actor Zhou's name.
Unsure of Zhou Cheng's thoughts, Han Ye, under the gazes of those around him, laughed awkwardly, "It's an honor to have heard so much about you! I became famous just from filming a variety show, and now even Movie Emperor Zhou knows about me. What an honor!"
Zhou Cheng smiled but said nothing, only giving him a deep look before turning to greet the other guests.
Everyone was easy to get along with. After a round of introductions, it was almost noon, and Director Su Jing said, "It's already noon, let's have lunch before we start filming. There's a farmhouse restaurant up ahead, let's go, it's on me, everyone go eat, after all, this is our last good meal."
The invited guests exchanged glances but remained silent.
The five regular guests nodded in agreement, "Okay, let's have dinner before filming. It's a good opportunity to rest and recharge."
Because they had entered the mountains, they had no idea what was going to happen.
The mountains are safe, and there are no wild animals, such as tigers, that have been checked; otherwise, they wouldn't have been allowed to go in like that.
It's not safe, but it's not safe either. There are wild chickens and wild boars, and these aren't as docile as domesticated animals.
Han Ye was the most excited, spinning around in place, almost jumping up and down. He rubbed his hands together excitedly, saying, "Let's go! Director Su, you lost 30 pounds of crayfish to me when we played mahjong last time. I'm going to eat them back later!"
Su Jing smiled and nodded, agreeing.
The group got up and headed towards the farmhouse restaurant. Su Jing said it was their last good meal, and they really did order a whole table full of delicacies.
Variety shows are very popular now, and with money, treating people to meals won't cost much, and Su Jing certainly has that kind of money.
Zhou Cheng was seated next to Su Jing. To his left was a female guest, a regular on another variety show, who had been invited to participate in the program.
The female guest was young and beautiful, single, and had never been involved in any scandals. When she saw that Zhou Cheng's seat had been arranged next to her, she smiled faintly on the surface, but was inwardly overjoyed.
She smiled and waited for Zhou Cheng to sit down so she could start a conversation with him. But then she saw Zhou Cheng walk over to Han Ye and ask the female guest, "Hello, could we switch seats? Han Ye and I have something to talk about."
The female guest, a regular on the show, widened her eyes upon hearing Zhou Cheng's words.
She stared back and forth between Zhou Cheng and Han Ye, her mind full of questions. When did Han Ye get to know Zhou Yingdi? She had never heard anyone mention it.
"Is it okay?" Seeing that the female guest didn't speak, Zhou Cheng asked patiently again.
"Okay, okay." The female guest, regaining her senses, stood up and sat down in Zhou Cheng's seat.
Zhou Cheng pulled out a chair, sat down, turned to look at Han Ye, and smiled again.
Han Ye: "..."
What's wrong with Actor Zhou?!
She smiled at him as soon as she arrived, and now she's smiling at him again! And I always feel like there's something malicious about his smile.
Han Ye thought about it carefully, but couldn't remember when he had offended him. He could only give a forced smile and ask, "What does Actor Zhou want to talk to me about? Do you have a suitable script or role to recommend to me?"
“No.” Zhou Cheng was still smiling, but his voice was cold. “She wouldn’t give up her seat if I didn’t say that.”
Han Ye: "..."
Why do I suddenly feel that Zhou Yingdi's approach to him was premeditated?
Something flashed through Han Ye's mind, and his face turned bright red.
He glanced around and saw everyone engrossed in their phones, chatting with friends, and no one seemed to notice him or Zhou Cheng. He whispered, "I heard that Actor Zhou is thirty and has never been in a relationship. At most, he had a rumored romance with Senior Xu Zhaodi a while ago, but everyone knows she has a boyfriend, so..."
Han Ye blinked and continued, "Actor Zhou, you wouldn't happen to be gay and like men, would you?"
