Chapter 39: So White, So Pink
"You don't want me to continue living in your house?"
Ning Mingluo quickly shook his head: "You are my boss, how could I have such thoughts? I am just worried that you will feel wronged. After all, my family and yours are completely incomparable."
Ning Mingluo still couldn't understand what Gu Xiucheng was thinking. He had such a big house but chose to come to his place to join in the fun.
Gu Xiucheng calmly picked up some food and said, "I live alone at home, and it's lively here."
Ning Mingluo: ...
Excuse me for being frank, but Mr. Gu, you don't look like someone who likes to be lively.
You can tell what Ning Mingluo is thinking by looking at his expression, but Gu Xiucheng's expression is very calm, and he doesn't think what he said is shocking at all.
Stop thinking about it and eat well. Aren't we supposed to be at the set early today?"
Ning Mingluo nodded: "Why do I feel like you know my working hours better than Sister Chen and Xiaoxing?"
"I'm your boss. Isn't it normal for me to care about you?"
"Is it normal?"
Gu Xiucheng coughed slightly with a guilty conscience: "When you ignored me before, I asked Luo Chen for your work schedule."
Ning Mingluo widened his eyes.
He really didn't expect that Gu Xiucheng paid so much attention to him.
Subconsciously raised the corners of his lips.
"Don't ignore me for so long in the future, or I'll harass the people around you."
"Okay, I get it. I won't do this again!"
With Gu Xiucheng taking care of her at home, Ning Mingluo can concentrate on filming without having to worry about her grandmother.
I would just call Gu Xiucheng during my breaks to ask about my grandmother's condition and what Mr. Gu was doing.
Luo Chen had also seen it a few times and felt a little curious.
Before, the two of them just sent messages to each other, but recently the number of video calls has increased significantly.
"Are you and Mr. Gu living together now?" I often run into Mr. Gu when I go to pick up Ning Mingluo in the morning.
"Not really. Grandma hasn't been in good health recently. I'm worried about her so I want to hire someone to take care of her. But Mr. Gu always asks for help, and somehow he ended up living at home."
Luo Chen felt that this story was very similar to the story of the Big Bad Wolf trying so hard to live in Little Red Riding Hood's house.
Especially in the scene filmed today, Ning Mingluo was wearing a red cloak, and it was really amazing to put yourself in the role.
Although she was complaining in her heart, he was her boss after all, so she couldn't be too disrespectful to him.
"This drama is about to be finished, and you can rest for a while after that. You don't have to worry about it. Grandma, the beautiful lady, will take care of you."
This is what Ning Mingluo was thinking.
"By the way, I've received quite a few scripts recently. Would you like to take a look at them when you have time? Although you can take a break, you still have to work. Now is the stage of accumulating fame. After Director Zeng's work is broadcast, you need to have follow-up works so that it won't be a flash in the pan."
"I know, Sister Chen, but I think I should focus on my grandmother during this period, so can you let me rest for a while?"
Luo Chen said helplessly: "Okay, I'll let you rest for a month at most, but there will be advertisements such as endorsements in the meantime, and you have to shoot, so you can't delay any longer."
"Don't you think there's no need to rush about endorsements or anything like that?"
"Mr. Gu has his own plans, but your popularity cannot be maintained solely by Mr. Gu. I am also helping you fight for it. I will discuss it with Mr. Gu later."
Ning Mingluo is the least troublesome artist that Luo Chen has managed recently.
There is no need to worry about resources, as someone has already taken care of the development planning.
No matter how you look at it, she, the big agent, seems like a decoration.
Although Luo Chen was relieved, with such a good opportunity, he still wanted Ning Mingluo to become famous as soon as possible.
Otherwise, it would be a waste of these resources and would also question her ability.
"Thank you for your hard work, Sister Chen."
"My job is not that hard."
Since Luo Chen told Ning Mingluo this, he naturally had some idea in mind.
Ningmingluo has a high starting point. If it is just an ordinary endorsement or advertisement, it is definitely not worthy of Ningmingluo.
But recently Director Zeng told her that a public service announcement was about to be filmed. Although the pay was not high, the return rate was very high.
The positive and uplifting image, coupled with the broadcasting platform, is an excellent opportunity for Ningmingluo to expand its popularity and maintain its image.
So if I get the opportunity to act in it, that would be great.
However, competition for such public service advertisements is also fierce to a certain extent.
Traffic-type star idols also hope to test the effect of changing their style through such short films.
Even celebrities who are not well-known do not want to miss such an opportunity.
The competition is very fierce.
However, looking at Ning Mingluo's own conditions, Luo Chen is still very confident.
Grandma hasn't fainted since that time, and Ning Mingluo gradually felt relieved.
At the same time, the filming of "Blood Prince" is about to be completed.
Today’s shooting is also Ning Mingluo’s last day of shooting.
With the end of the board, the shooting officially ended.
“Happy wrap!”
Everyone in the crew shouted out in unison, and Ning Mingluo wanted to cry when he saw everyone.
This was his first time playing the leading role, and everyone took good care of him during this period, which was completely different from his previous filming experiences.
He was very grateful.
"Thank you everyone, and thank you for your hard work during this period." After saying that, Ning Mingluo bowed to the staff present.
He knows very well how hard the ordinary staff on the set work, and how they may not be respected even though they work so hard.
Seeing Ning Mingluo do this, everyone felt warm in their hearts.
After leaving this crew, they don’t know when they will meet such a gentle lead actor again.
There are many "good people" in this circle.
But when they stay in high positions for too long and get used to it, it is difficult for them to bend down and feel the hardships of ordinary people.
But Ningmingluo is different.
From an ordinary marginal role, he suddenly became the leading male role of Director Zeng. Even though he was praised like this, he did not forget the path he came from.
"Okay, no need to be so sentimental. There's still a lot of work to do, including publicity and promotion. Everyone still has a lot of work to do, so your current task is to pack up and go to the wrap-up banquet. A mysterious person is coming today."
Director Zeng's words brought everyone out of the previous atmosphere, and then when they heard about the mysterious person, everyone became even more curious about who would come to the wrap-up party.
Usually, producers or investors may show up at this kind of wrap-up party.
The investor of their film is Shengshi. Is the CEO of Shengshi coming here?
Since the beginning of this drama, they haven't sent many senior executives here. Today I finally have the chance to meet him in person.
Everyone on the set was a little excited.
Even the actors in the crew became excited.
Although Tang Xiuwen was not as hard to see as the head of the Dynasty, he was not someone they could see often.
Except for Ning Mingluo, the other actors in this drama directed by Zeng have a lot of first-line traffic, but there are only a handful of them who can have a relationship with Tang Xiuwen.
So I got a little excited when I heard this.
Ning Mingluo felt okay about the mysterious guest.
After all, as the most mysterious and powerful figure in the circle, Mr. Gu Xiucheng is now living in his house.
This mysterious guest should be Gu Xiucheng who has been away for a month.
In the lounge, Gu Xiucheng took off her makeup and got up to go to the fitting room to change clothes.
Every time Ning Mingluo takes off his costume and puts on his own clothes, he feels like he has escaped from another person's life.
Although it was all himself, when he was performing he felt like he was entering another person's life.
The experience is completely two different feelings.
"Xiaoxing, where is the spare button for my shirt? Please help me find it. This button has fallen off."
Ning Mingluo found that the top two buttons of Chen's clothes had fallen off after she changed her clothes.
Without noticing that there was only one person left in the lounge, Ning Mingluo looked down at his collar and walked straight towards the mirror.
When Ning Mingluo looked up at the mirror, he suddenly noticed that there was an extra person on the sofa.
The man was wearing a black suit and holding a beautiful bouquet of blue flowers, each of which looked like an exquisite beauty.
Seeing that Ning Mingluo finally noticed him, the man walked towards her with the flowers in his arms.
"Happy wrap-up."
Handing the flowers in his hand to Ning Mingluo, Gu Xiucheng congratulated Ning Mingluo with a smile.
Ning Mingluo took the flowers handed to her by Gu Xiucheng in a daze, and was a little unresponsive for a moment.
"Why are you here?"
"Isn't today the wrap? I came to celebrate with you. Didn't you ask Secretary Wang yesterday if I had time today?"
Hearing this, Ning Mingluo's cheeks turned red.
This was the first play he acted in after entering the prosperous era, and it was also the first play arranged for him by Gu Xiucheng.
The filming is finished, and he hopes Gu Xiucheng can come.
But this was actually a very small matter for Gu Xiucheng, and he didn't intend to disturb Gu Xiucheng directly.
"So the mysterious guest Director Zeng mentioned at the wrap-up party today was you?"
Gu Xiucheng nodded: "Attending the wrap-up party is just a side event, and I'm mainly here to give you flowers."
You are special and others are just incidental. No one would be unhappy to hear such words, and Ning Mingluo is no exception.
After sniffing the words that Gu Xiucheng sent, Ning Mingluo smiled at the man.
"Thank you."
Gu Xiucheng looked down at Ning Mingluo, a little dazed for a moment.
With eyes like stars and a blush on her cheeks, Ning Mingluo was the most beautiful person he had ever seen in his circle.
Further down, because the buttons of Ning Mingluo's shirt had fallen off, the collar of her shirt was open, and her fair skin was exposed to the air, white and delicate. Gu Xiucheng coughed uncomfortably, as he seemed to have seen a little pink just now.
So white, so pink.
"The button on your shirt is falling off, so change it."
After Gu Xiucheng said this, Ning Mingluo remembered the shirt. He looked down and saw that the collar was almost open.
He quickly and nervously grabbed his collar with his hands.
"I'll talk to Xiaoxing and ask her to send over another piece of clothing."
Ning Mingluo was so flustered that he almost dropped his phone.
Gu Xiucheng helped him catch it in time: "Be careful."
