"Wait, don't talk yet, listen to me first!" Gu Xiao felt that he couldn't let Lan Shuang speak, otherwise the topic would always deviate to Mount Everest, making him unable to breathe.
Lan Shuang sat on the edge of the bed, opened her laptop, put her phone on speakerphone, and listened to Gu Xiao while contacting Qin Shou.
"Jie Chun" has been completed, and there is only one episode left of the variety show. She will soon enter a period of idleness. If the time is too long, it will be difficult to find a job after the popularity has subsided. She has to find another job quickly.
Gu Xiao was silent for a while, took a few deep breaths, sorted out his thoughts, and then spoke, "My words may be a little sudden, but they all come from the heart."
"Lan Shuang, I like you. I kissed you on impulse, but it wasn't drunken indiscriminate sex. I just couldn't control myself. I saw you being so intimate with Huo Youqian and talking to him so happily. I was jealous, sad, and uncomfortable, so I lost my mind and went crazy."
After saying these words, Gu Xiao felt relaxed all over and couldn't help laughing. He had found answers to all the depression and confusion he had been feeling during this period of time, and there was only one solution to these problems - Lan Shuang.
Lan Shuang's eyes moved away from the computer screen and fell on the phone. She paused for a moment: "You like me? What do you like about me? When did you like me? Just now? Are you sure you like me and it's not just a temporary interest? Have you really thought it through?"
Gu Xiao frowned: "Do you think I'm just joking?"
Lan Shuang calmly replied, "I didn't mean that, but we're not children anymore, and relationships aren't just playing house. There are a lot of things to consider when we're together. Have you thought about all of this?"
"I..." Gu Xiao was stunned by the question. He seemed not to have thought that much.
Lan Shuang heard his hesitation, chuckled, and said calmly, "I'm not very angry, and I'm very calm now, so I hope you can think carefully about what your purpose is in saying this, and whether I am willing to accept it. These are not answers that can be given to you in a short time."
Gu Xiao fell silent. His excitement gradually faded away, and his boiling blood also calmed down.
"I have something else to do here, so I'll hang up first. You've been drinking a lot today, so I'll have someone prepare some honey water for you."
After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone neatly. Gu Xiao listened to the busy tone on the other end of the phone and smiled helplessly, "How cold-blooded! She just hung up as soon as she said so."
However, what Lan Shuang said seemed ruthless, but it was very rational and objective. He was still a little impulsive just now. After thinking about it carefully, he really needed to figure out what he wanted before deciding what to do.
Feeling dizzy, he frowned and sighed, wanting to go upstairs to take a nap. But as soon as he stepped on the stairs, he remembered what Lan Shuang had just said, "Honey water..."
"It's so sweet, what's good to drink?"
He wandered into the kitchen while muttering to himself, took out a cup and honey, and looked at each other in silence.
Is honey water cold or hot?
Never mind, just drink it.
Mr. Gu drank a large glass of sweet honey water in one breath. He was so full that he couldn't drink any more, so he went upstairs.
As for how many times he went to the toilet afterwards, it is unknown.
…
Qin Shou sent Lan Shuang several scripts. Although he was busy training new people, he did not forget Lan Shuang. After all, Lan Shuang is still very popular online. Whether he is a black or a red, he is still red. It is easier to get things done with traffic. Many people have been looking for him recently.
He sent all the scripts to Lan Shuang.
Lan Shuang looked through them and found that most of them were web dramas. Web dramas would have been fine, but they were terrible, with poor plots, and problems with logic and values. They were so annoying that it hurt my eyes just to watch them.
Lan Shuang was panning for gold in shit, and ended up being turned into an emoticon package of an old man on the subway looking at his phone. After searching for a long time, she finally found a costume drama that looked normal.
She was chosen to play the second female lead, but her role was comparable to that of the female lead, and her character was more interesting than that of the female lead. She was both good and evil, and in the end she committed suicide for love. If she performed well, it should leave a deep impression on people.
Qin Shou was getting impatient waiting and called directly: "How is it, have you chosen?"
Lan Shuang nodded: "I've chosen it, let's go with this Jade."
Qin Shou pulled up the script, glanced at it, and asked in surprise, "Are you sure? This production has the poorest crew of all. The cast is temporary, the budget is limited, and the actors they hired aren't famous. I'm afraid it will flop so badly that even my parents won't recognize it."
"It's all bad anyway. A bad crew is better than a bad script. Besides, this story is relatively short. By the time she finishes filming, Jie Chun will probably be released. The timing is just right."
"Don't think about it anymore. I think that campus drama is pretty good, and she's the female lead."
Qin Shou was not very happy and tried his best to lobby.
Lan Shuang was getting tired of hearing this and sneered, "Are you talking about that school drama where the heroine acts like a bootlicker and then does all sorts of stupid things, then claims to have a sudden realization and ends up with the jerk?"
Qin Shou: “…”
There's no need to be so blunt.
"That's settled, Brother Qin, go contact the crew."
"Okay, then take it."
…
Lan Shuang joined the crew just a few days after taking a break. The conditions of this crew were indeed simple, and all the funds were spent on costumes and props. All the actors were newcomers, but unexpectedly, the director was very capable and had extremely strict requirements on the actors' acting skills, and the resulting filming was very good.
Because the costumes and props were so sophisticated, it was easy to bring people into the situation. Lan Shuang's acting skills were also well displayed, and the director was very satisfied with her.
"I said I didn't choose the wrong person. I invited you with the mentality of giving it a try, but the producer didn't agree, saying that your reputation was not good now."
The director was a melancholy young man with long hair. Now he smiled with his unshaven beard, and he looked a little more lively.
Lan Shuang didn't know there was such a thing going on, so she asked curiously, "Then why did the director insist on using me?"
The director smiled, took a puff of his cigarette, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Our little web series is desperate for traffic. That's one thing, but also because your experience overlaps with the second female lead. I've always felt that people with life experience can act more realistically and movingly. If you just imagine it, it's actually harder."
Lan Shuang agreed, "That's true. Only those who have experienced it know the true state."
The second female lead has experienced heartbreak, just like the original owner. In this respect, she is indeed very suitable.
She finished work early that day and suddenly thought of Gu Xiao while looking at her phone. She didn't know what this person was doing.
Just as I was thinking about it, Gu Xiao sent me a message, [Are you filming? ]
Lan Shuang smiled and said, "It's time to call it a day."
Haha: [Thank you for your hard work. When are you free these days? I'll visit you on set.]
Tiantian: [Visiting the set? Mr. Gu is so polite.]
Haha: [I've been thinking a lot recently, and there are some things I want to tell you in person]
Lan Shuang suddenly realized, "I only have one show on Sunday, come if you're free."
——Digression——
The previous chapter was blocked, and I was helpless. It would take two days before I could apply for unblocking again, and I couldn't stop updating. You guys just have to make do with it for now, or save it and wait until it's released to read. I'm really tired.
