Upon hearing this confession, Luo Jiu's already flushed cheeks turned even redder, like a ripe apple, making one want to take a bite and taste her.
Shen Jinchen is really something else.
Luo Jiu felt her whole body radiating heat, especially the parts that had been in contact with Chen Jinchen, which felt like they were about to burn.
She pushed him away and sat up from his lap.
"cough."
"These... these are all your little fans' heartfelt wishes for you. Remember to sign them all, don't leave a single one out."
Watching Luo Jiu's slightly hurried figure, Shen Jinchen's lips unconsciously curved into a smile. He picked up the pen beside him and lowered his eyes.
Long eyelashes shimmered in the warm sunlight.
With Chen Jinchen's investment and a substantial amount of funds, Luo Zhe was no longer in a hurry and planned to make a high-quality film to submit for awards at the Berlin Film Festival.
Money is not a problem, and time can be overcome. For the sake of the quality of the work, we are willing to spend a lot of time helping the actors find their place in the role.
The best approach is to film directly following the script's plot, which makes it easier to engage the actors' emotions.
The scene that Luo Jiu filmed was also one of the original scenes in the script.
The story takes place at a resort in a remote part of a city.
The girls from the same dormitory, along with a few boys, planned to travel to the resort during the National Day holiday.
A group of boys and girls, all art students, were a sight to behold. Their good looks and handsome appearance immediately attracted the attention of many upon entering the village.
"Everyone, follow me and don't get separated. This is a newly developed mountaintop resort, and the facilities are not yet complete, so be careful."
The leader was a young man in a black T-shirt and a baseball cap. He had a friendly smile with curved lips.
"Squad leader, how much longer? This mountain road is so winding, are you sure we haven't gone the wrong way?"
The speaker was a long-haired girl wearing a floral shirt. Her hair was permed into small waves, and the corners of her mouth were slightly pouted. Her tone of voice sounded like she was complaining, but also like she was being coquettish.
"Don't worry, it's right ahead."
People tend to be more patient with pretty girls, no matter who they are.
After walking for an hour, everyone was exhausted and impatient, but they had already covered most of the distance and there was no turning back, so they had no choice but to keep going. They couldn't help but complain.
A moment later, a farmhouse came into view. The owners, a couple, saw the travel-worn group and quickly ushered them into the yard.
"Come on, come on, you must be exhausted."
The kind couple knew they were coming at this time and had specially prepared dinner for them. It was local specialty food, made without any pesticides, all grown locally, and had a unique flavor.
"Xia Xi and Liu Ling will share a room, Li Yue and Jiang Yixue will share a room, and Wu Minghao and I will share a room. Everyone, please get ready tonight and be well-rested. Tomorrow morning, we'll go explore the surrounding area and see what fun things there are to do."
After listening to the boy's words, the group of people took the keys and went back inside.
As night fell, the mountains were utterly silent. The absence of the city's hustle and bustle brought an extraordinary sense of peace.
After packing his things, the chestnut-haired boy played on his phone, a smile playing on his lips. Then he took his phone and walked out.
"Minghao, where are you going?"
The class monitor, wearing a baseball cap, called out to him, earning a look from the boy. The boy then raised his phone, a cryptic smile playing on his lips.
"Liu Ling asked me to come."
The class monitor concealed the disappointment in his eyes, put on his usual smile, and reached out to hit him.
"Get lost! You even shoved a mouthful of dog food into my mouth, don't you have a heart?!"
Wu Minghao walked out of the room and headed towards the grove. His silver earrings gleamed brightly in the moonlight, quite dazzling.
Living deep in the mountains is inconvenient, but it also has its advantages. Apart from the nearby houses, the grove is pitch black, making it the perfect place for couples to meet in secret.
Wu Minghao, flashlight in hand, opened the door to the backyard house and peered inside. This was the spot he had scouted out that afternoon; surely no one would be here at this hour.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw the girl with small waves on her back, sitting on a stool, quietly looking at the moon in the distance.
The soft moonlight cast a veil of white light over the girl, making her appear even more elegant and mysterious.
"Li Yue?"
The boy was a little unsure, so he called out softly. He saw the girl turn her head slightly and pout at him.
"Why are you so late? We've been waiting for you for ages. Look, you've been bitten by mosquitoes so many times."
Wu Minghao found the girl's coquettish voice very pleasing. He thoroughly enjoyed this feeling.
"Oh, I see. Let me take a look."
The boy quickly moved over and pulled open the girl's pants leg. Before long, the two were whispering and sticking together.
The girl leaned on the boy's shoulder, looking up at the starry sky. A deep voice asked:
"When are you going to be honest with Liu Ling? You don't like her anymore, so why don't you break up with her? You're always letting her occupy the position of your girlfriend."
The girl's voice carried a hint of grievance, making one feel sorry for her and want to comfort her.
"Honey, you know she has a heart condition. I'll tell her the truth after the trip. Just wait a little longer, okay?"
After saying that, he kissed the girl's cheek again.
With such intimacy, the girl's initial complaints gradually dissipated, and she became immersed in the stolen romance.
The toilet was separated from the back door by only one wall. The soundproofing of the house was already poor. Xia Xi, who was hiding in the toilet, was forced to listen to the entire conversation. The two of them did not give her a chance to refuse.
She pinched the bridge of her nose, a hint of helplessness and worry flashing in her eyes.
Cheating is one thing, but couldn't you at least pick a better spot? At least check if anyone's around. I don't want to hear your nonsense.
The moonlight slowly rose into the sky, filling the entire night sky.
Xia Xi was stunned for a moment in the toilet. After a while, she slowly raised her head, a smile curving her lips. Her expression was unreadable. After flushing the toilet, she walked out.
On her way back, she bumped into Li Yue, who was being all lovey-dovey with someone else's boyfriend. She already didn't have a good impression of her, and seeing her character like this, she didn't even want to say hello.
"Hey, Xia Xi, where have you been coming from?"
Xia Xi, who had been called to a stop, paused and turned around to give her a cryptic look.
"bathroom."
"bathroom?"
Gradually, by the time Li Yue came to her senses, Xia Xi had already disappeared.
"Why is this person acting so strangely today?"
Li Yue pouted and muttered a couple of things before turning around and going back to her room.
"Card."
Luo Jiu came out from behind the scenes and went forward to check on the filming results. Unexpectedly, her boyfriend grabbed her and patted her head all over.
Luo Jiu: "...If you don't let go, I'll chop off your claws."
The words spoken in that sweet, childlike voice always filled Shen Jinchen with a strange sense of wonder and surprise.
"Even if you cut it, I won't let it go."
