Lu Mingxu's anger subsided slightly. "Is this your room?"
Chi Xiuwen leaned against the door, clearly waiting for Pei Zhi's explanation.
We slept together last night, how come Pei Zhi went to the next room?
“Yesterday, the crew had a dinner party. When we came back, Brother Xiuwen had drunk too much, so he rested in my room, and I slept in my manager’s room.”
Lu Mingxu looked at Pei Zhi's bathrobe and asked suspiciously, "Then Sister Hong, why did you take me to knock on the door next door?"
If Pei Zhi and Li Hong slept in the same room yesterday...
Why did Li Hong have to knock on the door next door when Li Hong could have just brought him to see Pei Zhi directly today?
Li Hong patted her forehead. "Look at me, I had too many things to do and completely forgot."
Li Hong, Pei Zhi's agent, clearly realized that things were not going well and naturally wanted to smooth things over.
"I had a few too many drinks at the dinner party yesterday, and my head got all foggy."
Lu Mingxu looked at Chi Xiuwen, "Teacher Chi, is that so?"
Chi Xiuwen remained silent, quietly watching Pei Zhi.
Pei Zhi shook her head at Chi Xiuwen, her expression somewhat sorrowful.
Chi Xiuwen scoffed, "What else did you expect? Did you think I slept with Pei Zhi yesterday?"
Lu Mingxu's face showed slight anger. "Teacher Chi, it's better not to say things carelessly. If others hear it, it could lead to misunderstandings."
Chi Xiuwen retorted, "Even if it's a misunderstanding, it's between me and Pei Zhi. Why are you so nervous? Is Pei Zhi your girlfriend?"
Pei Zhi's face turned slightly pale; she was truly afraid that Lu Mingxu, that big idiot, would admit it.
Fortunately, Li Hong noticed that things were not going well and quickly reached out to grab Lu Mingxu.
"Alright, enough already. If we start arguing in front of the hotel and get caught on camera, what will that look like?"
Li Hong feared that if things continued to escalate, it would be difficult to handle the situation.
"Teacher Chi, please go in and rest first. Mingxu is just visiting the set and will be leaving soon."
After listening to Li Hong's words, Chi Xiuwen glanced thoughtfully at Pei Zhi, then slammed the door shut behind him.
Lu Mingxu immediately shouted, "No, who is he? Just because he debuted early, does he think he's something special?"
Li Hong turned pale with fright. "Ancestor, you should behave yourself outside someone's door."
"If someone takes a picture of this and posts it online, it will be a real problem."
As Li Hong spoke, she pushed Lu Mingxu into the room.
As she went inside, Li Hong glared at Pei Zhi.
The situation has stabilized for the time being, and Pei Zhi's tense emotions have also relaxed.
As soon as the door closed, Lu Mingxu couldn't wait to hug Pei Zhi.
"You've been busier than me lately. You hardly ever reply to my messages."
Li Hong simply walked into the second bedroom, closed the door, and left the space to Pei Zhi and Lu Mingxu alone.
"As you know, I worked with a big director on this movie, and filming it was very tiring."
Pei Zhi buried her head in Lu Mingxu's arms, "There's so much to learn every day, I'm afraid of holding others back."
Lu Mingxu persisted, "Even if you're exhausted, you still have to reply to my messages."
Pei Zhi's face turned cold, and she pushed Lu Mingxu away, saying, "Can you stop being so childish?"
"Everyone in the crew is a senior, and I don't even get enough sleep every day. What am I supposed to do?"
Pei Zhi gave him a cold look, and Lu Mingxu immediately stopped arguing.
"I know I was wrong, please don't be angry, I just missed you so much."
Lu Mingxu hugged Pei Zhi tightly, cuddling her affectionately.
Pei Zhi asked, "Why did you suddenly come today? You didn't even give us a heads-up. If you get photographed, it'll be a huge problem."
Lu Mingxu's eyes flickered slightly. He couldn't very well say that he was worried and suddenly had the idea to come and see.
The online discussions about Chi Xiuwen and Pei Zhi's interactions on set are making Lu Mingxu's heart ache.
Moreover, Pei Zhi's reply speed to his messages has also slowed down considerably, to about once every two days.
Lu Mingxu felt really insecure, so he suddenly showed up.
"I have an event in the next city this afternoon, and I just happened to be passing by, so I thought I'd drop by to see you."
"Alright."
Lu Mingxu sounded obviously guilty, but Pei Zhi didn't press him for details.
"Next time you're coming, let me know in advance and I'll have my agent make the arrangements."
Lu Mingxu was somewhat reluctant. If he had given prior notice, what could he have caught?
But when he came here today, he didn't find anything.
If he doesn't greet her next time, Pei Zhi will probably be angry.
"Okay, next time I come to visit the set, I'll definitely let you know in advance."
Lu Mingxu held Pei Zhi tightly, saying he missed her, but his hands started to wander.
Pei Zhi shrank back. "Sister Hong is still in the second bedroom. Are you crazy?"
"It's been almost a month since we last saw each other, I miss you."
When men and women have had sex, what they say about wanting or not just means they want to sleep together.
"No, don't you have an event later?"
Pei Zhi refused firmly, but there was no way around it; she had marks on her body.
Yesterday, the cast and crew had a dinner party, and Chi Xiuwen drank a bit too much; they were playing around a bit too intensely.
If Lu Mingxu saw this, there would be no way to explain it.
Seeing that Lu Mingxu was still somewhat unwilling to give in, Pei Zhi put on a stern face.
"What? You came to see me just for this?"
Lu Mingxu stopped moving and sighed, "You really have me completely under your thumb."
With just one look from Pei Zhi, Lu Mingxu felt a little scared.
After the two spent some time together, Lu Mingxu's agent called, urging Lu Mingxu to come downstairs.
Lu Mingxu hugged Pei Zhi and kissed her several times before reluctantly leaving.
Pei Zhi closed the hotel room door and turned around to see Li Hong with a mocking expression.
"The big star was lured away?"
Pei Zhi ignored her, "Didn't you see it?"
Li Hong's amused expression vanished. "Tell me honestly, what do you mean? Are you dating both of them?"
Even in the entertainment industry, Pei Zhi's reckless behavior will not end well.
If it gets discovered that Pei Zhi is talking to two such famous people, she'll be finished.
Pei Zhi looked at Li Hong with a puzzled expression. "Why would you say that?"
"I'm not dating any of them."
Li Hong didn't understand. "Huh?"
Pei Zhi explained, "There was a popular term before, wasn't there? What was it called? 'Film crew couple'."
Li Hong was amused by Pei Zhi's words, "Do you think Lu Mingxu and Chi Xiuwen would play along with your on-screen couple act?"
How many of those who engage in the "couples on set" act are good people?
If Chi Xiuwen and Lu Mingxu really played like that, they wouldn't have reached this level.
"Have you ever thought about how furious they would be if they found out?"
Neither of these two people is easy to mess with.
Li Hong didn't argue with Pei Zhi about these things. "You better cut ties with them right now, or we're all doomed."
"I'm still filming with Chi Hsiu-wen right now. We just slept together and the call broke up. How can we get along on set?"
Pei Zhi's words made some sense.
The male and female leads are making such a scene, how can the show be filmed? It will also affect the atmosphere on set.
