Pei Zhi thus moved into Hu Shi's large villa in a very open and aboveboard manner.
Hu Shih usually had to film movies, and even when he came back, he mostly stayed in hotels, which was more convenient.
Because of Pei Zhi, Hu Shi moved back, and even hired a cook and a cleaner, for fear of neglecting Pei Zhi, his ancestor.
Hu Shih was quite popular at the time, so he turned down a lot of work and stayed home with Pei Zhi for a few days.
The main purpose is to help Pei Zhi accept new things so that she doesn't fall behind the world.
After resting for a few days, Hu Shih was about to go back to work.
Pei Zhi was Hu Shi's assistant, so naturally she had to go along.
Before getting out of the van, Hu Shih asked Pei Zhi to put on a mask.
Although Pei Zhi felt a little awkward, she put it on anyway.
Hu Shi instructed, "After you get off the train, don't take off your mask."
"Why?"
"Your face is still too distinctive."
Pei Zhi has been out of the entertainment industry for ten years. In the past few years, she would occasionally trend on social media, referred to as "Little Pei Zhi" or something similar, and was severely ridiculed by netizens.
Over the years, netizens have remained incredibly scathing.
The commentator remarked that although Pei Zhi had moral failings, her face was undeniably beautiful, and people should refrain from trying to take advantage of her looks.
At the time, Pei Zhi's reputation in the industry wasn't very good.
But Pei Zhi's beauty is undeniable.
Ten years have passed, and Pei Zhi's face is exactly the same as before.
It's infuriating, really; she doesn't even have a wrinkle or a single acne scar.
After getting out of the car, Hu Shi whispered to his agent, "Brother Wang, keep an eye on her and make sure no one offends her."
After taking a moment to process what he had just eaten, the agent, Brother Wang, said, "Is it to tell her not to offend anyone?"
Why is it that Hu Shih, after resting for a few days, can't even speak anymore?
Hu Shi shook his head and looked solemnly at his agent, "No, it's about making sure no one offends her, otherwise, today's filming probably won't be able to be completed smoothly."
Agent Wang scratched his head. "Is it that serious?"
Today's shoot was a reshoot for a magazine. There were some issues with the outfit we had previously photographed, so we needed Hu Shi to coordinate a new one.
It shouldn't be over for long. What could possibly happen?
Pei Zhi hadn't been to a film set for many years, and she was quite curious to see so many new machines.
Inside the dressing room, Hu Shih sat in a chair applying makeup, while Pei Zhi sat beside him observing.
"Don't stare at me like that."
Pei Zhi's gaze was so focused that it made Hu Shi feel a little embarrassed.
Pei Zhi spoke frankly: "I just noticed that you seem to have a new wrinkle at the corner of your eye."
The Hu Shi I remember still has the same face, and his personality hasn't changed much.
Only upon closer inspection did one realize that Hu Shih's face had indeed aged considerably.
Hu Shi opened his eyes and glared at Pei Zhi. "Have you forgotten who's paying your salary now?"
Pei Zhi immediately raised her hand to apologize, "I'm sorry, you know I'm just too blunt, I don't mean any harm."
Hu Shi snorted coldly, too lazy to pay attention to Pei Zhi, closed his eyes, and continued to put on makeup.
Despite her trembling hands, the makeup artist finished Hu Shi's makeup and styling, and then Hu Shi went to change his clothes.
After changing his clothes, Hu Shih sat in a chair and let the makeup artist apply makeup to his chest.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk." Pei Zhi looked at Hu Shi, seemingly saying nothing, yet seemingly saying everything.
Hu Shi glanced down and said, "I need to draw my abs because I've been on set for a while and haven't been exercising. I used to have them!"
"Things that didn't exist ten years ago, you'll be this age in ten years, how could you possibly still have them?"
Pei Zhi recalled that ten years ago, when she was filming with Hu Shi, Hu Shi had abs.
What? Hu Shi, almost forty years later, will have developed eight-pack abs? What a joke.
"Hahaha."
The makeup artist, holding a paintbrush, couldn't hold back her laughter and burst out laughing.
"Excuse me, I just remembered a joke, it's really funny, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
The makeup artist apologized while laughing.
Even his agent, Brother Wang, was trying not to laugh, his face turning completely red. Hu Shi let out a deep sigh.
He thought that keeping Pei Zhi by his side as an assistant must have been a mistake.
Hu Shih looked at his agent and said, "Go buy a packet of poison and make her mute."
Pei Zhi quickly made a shushing gesture, "You go about your business, I won't bother you anymore."
After Pei Zhi shut up, the makeup artist was finally able to get back to work.
Hu Shi couldn't help but scrutinize Pei Zhi; it wasn't just his imagination.
Hu Shih always thought that Pei Zhi was much more relaxed after his return.
How should I put it? It's like the old Pei Zhi, who seemed to be bound by some kind of constraint, but now she is the real her.
However, it's normal for Pei Zhi to have changed after ten years.
After ten years of going out and having fun, seeing a lot of the world, it's only right that my personality is a bit different.
Over the years, Hu Shih has appeared in countless magazines.
Originally, it should have been something that could be easily obtained.
As a result, when Hu Shih stood in front of the camera today, he would unconsciously make eye contact with Pei Zhi.
Pei Zhi looked directly at Hu Shi. Pei Zhi was wearing a mask, so only her eyes were visible.
Nevertheless, Hu Shi knew that Pei Zhi was definitely smiling.
Hu Shih gritted his teeth, trying to maintain his professionalism and not laugh out loud.
They posed in front of the camera, cooperating with the director.
But... no, Hu Shi always felt like he was showing off in front of acquaintances.
Hu Shih couldn't help but make eye contact with Pei Zhi, and then he couldn't help but laugh.
Throughout the shooting studio, bursts of laughter from Hu Shi could be heard from time to time.
A group of staff members looked at each other, wondering what was wrong with Hu Yingdi today. They were filming perfectly fine, and then suddenly he started laughing.
The manager, Brother Wang, could only keep apologizing and frantically explaining that the artist hadn't rested well the day before.
Or perhaps the artist isn't in the right state of mind.
Finally, the director got tired and announced that everyone would take a half-hour break.
Pei Zhi, fulfilling her duty as an assistant, brought a water glass to Hu Shi.
Pei Zhi commented, "You're actually quite funny when you're working, huh?"
Hu Shih took a red bill from his agent's wallet. "Take this, go outside, find a coffee shop, order a coffee, and wait for me to finish filming, okay?"
Pei Zhi took the money. "Don't you need me to stay by your side and accompany you while you work?"
"No need. If you were here, I might not be able to finish filming today."
Pei Zhi closed her water glass. "Your own work ability is incompetent, so you're blaming your assistant?"
Hu Shih was powerless to explain. He only hoped that Pei Zhi would leave quickly, otherwise there would probably be news tomorrow that Hu Shih had overdone it.
The boss gave her a day off; only a fool wouldn't take it. Pei Zhi took the money and went out to slack off openly.
