Chapter 180 Waves
When Chen Boyang heard the name "Mary", he was almost unable to react for a moment.
After calming down, he heaved a sigh of relief somewhat helplessly, and pondered in his mind how to deal with this problem: it was true that he wrote this song to "Mary", but the "Mary" he wanted to dedicate the song to was Mary Su played by Su Yun, not Mary Jane played by Weng Jingjing!
"This song... was indeed intended to be written as a gift to someone." After a moment of silence, Chen Boyang replied in a low voice.
Upon hearing this, the reporter who asked the question immediately uttered an "oh" meaningfully, and Weng Jingjing next to her also lowered her head, with an expression of surprise and shyness on her face.
Seeing this, Chen Boyang was even more troubled in his heart: He wanted to explain that "I am just a composer, and I only gave the lyricist a general idea and direction. As for the details of the lyrics, the lyricist wrote them, so I didn't pay attention to this kind of explanation that almost caught the homophony of a few words like catching word lice." However...
Weng Jingjing standing next to him obviously misunderstood something and also misled the reporter. If he had directly denied it, Weng Jingjing would definitely have been criticized.
Nowadays, it is not uncommon for men to pursue women or women to pursue men, but if you are too sentimental and do something wrong, you will easily be ridiculed.
It was not appropriate to humiliate Weng Jingjing in public, so Chen Boyang could only give an ambiguous answer.
After getting a satisfactory answer, the reporter wrote a few words on his notebook, then picked up the camera and asked, "Let's take a picture together, shall we?"
After taking a few photos with Weng Jingjing, who smiled politely and sweetly, Chen Boyang made up his mind: he would find a chance to explain things to Weng Jingjing later.
Alas, it was probably because of his previous behavior that caused misunderstanding.
After taking the photos, the reporter wanted to continue asking questions, but at this time, a "savior" appeared on Chen Boyang's side.
"Danny, Mary, the director wants you to get ready!" As a PA, you are always responsible for finding people everywhere. After Gao Zhichen found the two people's location, he immediately shouted at the top of his voice.
The plot of the recent drama was modified according to the feedback from the audience. After handing the revised new script to Chen Baiyang and Weng Jingjing, Gao Zhichen waved his hand and urged the two to go to the designated shooting location.
After confirming that Chen Baiyang and Weng Jingjing were already in place for rehearsal, Gao Zhichen turned to look at the interrupted reporter and said, "Have you finished the interview? If you have, leave quickly, otherwise it will affect the on-site recording."
"PA brother, do you often follow this group?" The reporter wanted to leave, but suddenly remembered something and asked again in a flattering manner.
"Nonsense." Gao Zhichen closed the folder in his hand.
"Then you should know a lot of inside information or gossip, right?" The reporter handed over a cigarette with a flattering expression, chatted with Gao Zhichen, the PA who seemed to be easier to talk to, and then slowly got to the point, "PA brother, since you are often with this group, you should know a lot about what Danny and Miss Weng do on a daily basis, right?"
"You asked the right person." Gao Zhichen was flattered by the reporter and casually told what he had seen before, "Before, Danny said he wanted to ask Miss Weng for help with something, and then he took people to the hotel for afternoon tea as soon as he got off work, and also went shopping in brand-name stores and to the mall. Miss Weng brought back a stuffed animal that was very expensive in the mall that day..."
When he said this, he and the reporter exchanged a look that all men know.
"So Danny is indeed pursuing Miss Weng? Alas, now that the Prince of Love Songs has fallen in love, who knows how many young girls will be heartbroken because of this..." The reporter felt that he had indeed dug up some big news and was overjoyed. After thanking this outspoken PA, he quickly ran back to the nearby car to sort out the information.
After finishing the exterior scenes here, it was already dark.
While everyone was busy packing up, Chen Baiyang winked at Weng Jingjing.
Accustomed to boys looking for secluded places to confess their love to her, Weng Jingjing nodded as if she understood what he meant, and then followed him into the nearby woods with a slight shyness.
Although she has many suitors, some are talented, some are wealthy, some are particularly obsessed with her, and of course there is no shortage of handsome guys... However, the one who possesses all these advantages is only the one in front of her.
Unfortunately, no one is perfect. Chen Boyang, who has many advantages, is too balanced. Apart from her looks and talent, which are only good to look at but not to eat, her wealth and personality are not something she is very satisfied with...
However, Chen Baiyang is indeed a typical Prince Charming type, and his character is pure - although she asks herself that she prefers men who are scheming and dare to fight, but if Chen Baiyang, the dream lover of thousands of girls, wants to pursue her, it seems that he is a good choice?
The more people pursue her, the more it proves her charm.
Just as Weng Jingjing was secretly daydreaming and hesitating whether to accept Chen Baiyang's advances, Chen Baiyang, who was walking in front and felt that he had found a suitable place, suddenly spoke: "Please don't misunderstand me."
"Ah?" Being suddenly awakened, Weng Jingjing was stunned for a moment.
"Actually, I asked you to come here this time just to explain what happened just now." This was the first time that Chen Boyang acted as a "bad guy" so he didn't pay any attention to Weng Jingjing's expression that changed instantly. Instead, he immersed himself in the thought of explaining it as quickly as possible. "I wrote the song "Ripples" to give it to a girl I have a crush on..."
"Because I didn't have the courage to confess my feelings to her directly, I listened to my good friend Leslie's advice and wrote a song for her to express my feelings through singing."
"I asked you to help me choose a handbag from Louise Vuitton because I was afraid that the handbag I chose would not suit her taste, so I specifically asked you, who is about the same age as her, to go there as a reference..."
"I didn't know you might have misunderstood me. I'm really sorry..."
It was also thanks to the dim environment here, and Chen Boyang was concentrating on the words he used to explain, otherwise he would have seen Weng Jingjing's embarrassed expression that turned from red to white and then to black.
"I'm so sorry!" Chen Boyang said at the end, and apologized to her with great guilt.
Weng Jingjing took a deep breath, and finally managed to control the complicated emotions in her heart. Then, relying on her usual experience of getting along with boys, she forced a smile and said, "I was just joking. I didn't mean that at all. You don't have to apologize like this."
"Ah?" This time it was Chen Boyang's turn to be confused.
"I can tell from the first glance that you have no experience with girls. I was just saying it casually, who knew you would take it so seriously!" After saying it at the beginning, the rest went smoothly. Weng Jingjing made a face at him, "I have always liked mature men. You are not my cup of tea."
Hearing this, Chen Boyang began to feel embarrassed: "I'm sorry, I thought..."
"You think, don't think that just because you have some talent and those schoolgirls and little girls praise you as a prince charming, you really think that all the girls in the world like you. Please don't be so narcissistic!" Weng Jingjing made a look of disgust.
Chen Boyang was so anxious that he apologized repeatedly: "I'm really sorry..."
"Come on, it's just a misunderstanding, it's not a big deal. We're all working in the same team, so there's no reason to hold grudges against each other." Weng Jingjing waved her hand to show that she didn't mind, then lowered her voice and moved closer, "But what about the girl you like? I'm really curious!"
Chen Baiyang took a small step back without leaving a trace. He tried to organize his words but blushed again: "Anyway... I don't know how to put it, but when I saw her, it was as if she and I were the only ones left in the world."
Thinking of that warm winter with the Bauhinia flowers flying around and the surprise he felt when he looked back on it later, Chen Boyang spoke in a lower voice and his face became redder as he spoke: "In short, that feeling is so mysterious and hard to describe, but when I think of it, I feel like I just finished swimming in a frozen pool and drank a cup of hot drink. That kind of feeling spreads from my heart to my whole body... it's so warm."
"I didn't expect you to be someone who likes this kind of outdated drama." With this silly look and the behavior that seemed like he had fallen in love at first sight and plunged headfirst into it and could never get out, Weng Jingjing actually felt a little lucky: Fortunately, Chen Baiyang didn't like her. This kind of boy is too innocent because he has always been spoiled. Not only does he have no ambition and drive, he is also easily deceived.
Unless he encountered a great change and was able to survive it and quickly grow into a man who could truly shoulder the responsibility of supporting his own business, she really couldn't praise this beautiful young man who was as fragile as a greenhouse flower.
"Hey, what are you guys talking about in secret?" Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind.
Looking back in the faint moonlight and street lamp light, they saw that it was the reporter who suddenly appeared during the day to interview them and then suddenly disappeared.
"Am I disturbing you?" This reporter was obviously sent by a gossip magazine, and there was always an unbearable sense of voyeurism in his smile.
"No, we are just summarizing today's filming, and then discussing what we need to do tomorrow so that we can cooperate better." Chen Baiyang stepped forward and answered proactively.
"Really?" The reporter flipped through his notes, his smile making people feel even more uncomfortable. "I heard that you guys were filming a kissing scene today. By the way, this was each other's first screen kiss, right?"
That was just a borrowed position... Chen Baiyang was about to explain further when Weng Jingjing beside him suddenly spoke up: "Originally, I also thought that according to the age of 16 or 17 in the play, it was not necessary to do this. Holding hands would be enough - because this may have a bad influence on young audiences of the same age."
"But the director explained to me for a long time that it was necessary for the plot... so I finally decided to accept the director's suggestion and gave my first kiss to Danny."
