Ji Qingzhou ignored him.
Sheng Wenxi was not discouraged and said to himself, "It seems that you don't want to eat anymore."
"Do you think this is interesting?" Ji Qingzhou asked him.
"It doesn't mean anything." Sheng Wenxi said, "But the words are clear, so I can only come to you again."
"What are you thinking about?"
"Let's have a midnight snack together. I bought some shrimp dumplings. Let's get in the car."
Ji Qingzhou didn't eat his shrimp dumplings, but got into the nanny car with him.
Sheng Wenxi didn't force him. After a moment of silence, she said to him, "I misunderstood before. I thought you and Chu Cheng were in that kind of relationship, so I wanted to help you."
"I don't need it." Ji Qingzhou said calmly.
"Of course I know you don't need it. After you called me, Chu Cheng also called me. If you were in that kind of relationship, he wouldn't have called me specifically just to tell me that I should respect you."
Ji Qingzhou was a little surprised. "He called you?"
"Yes, he didn't actually need to make this call, or he could have called just to warn me that if I did it again, he would be rude to me, but he has done a lot and stood on your side a lot. I was busy arguing with him at the time. Of course, he argued fiercely, and I basically did nothing. I just listened to him lecturing me. But after hanging up the phone and calming down for a while, I almost understood why you two were not in the relationship I thought, but you could let him interfere in everything you do - he really cares about you."
"He always thinks about me." Ji Qingzhou said without hesitation.
"So I calmed down for a long time, and even went out for some fun, looking at the mountains and rivers. It wasn't until now that I came to find you."
"You don't have to come to find me." Ji Qingzhou said honestly, "If you don't appear in front of me, I won't look for you, nor will I deliberately remember you."
"I never knew you could be so direct." Sheng Wenxi smiled, "I always thought you had a good temper."
"I've lived my life. I don't like people disrespecting me. When you do something like that, I naturally don't want to see you again."
"But I don't want to leave such an image in the minds of those I admire. Ji Qingzhou, I admit that I admire you very much. I also admit that I am used to having smooth sailing. I have a good family background and later entered this circle. Because of my father's relationship, everyone gave me some face. I also worked hard and won awards early on, more than once. So I am arrogant and I think I have the capital. You are the first person who rejected me after I became famous. I don't want to accept it. I want you to compromise. In the process, I may have done some things that I shouldn't have done, but my starting point is good..."
"Maybe?" Ji Qingzhou interrupted him.
Sheng Wenxi was somewhat helpless, "Okay, it is true."
Ji Qingzhou smiled. Sheng Wenxi saw that he finally smiled and continued, "But I have figured it out now. You may not know that my original intention was actually to fear that the aura in you would disappear. A good actor needs to be nourished by good works. There are many good horses, but there are few good horse trainers. I want to be your good horse trainer. I think you have potential, but you have stayed in your comfort zone for too long, so I want to spur you on."
"But now, you have filmed Director Kang's movie, he will become your mentor, and with his work, other directors will come to you in the future. As long as there are good works, your talent will not be wasted. Although I still think that you can try to challenge the role that you feel unsafe, Director Kang would not want to see that, and I really have no right to force you, so this dispute ends here. I apologize to you for what happened before, can you forgive me?"
Ji Qingzhou thought for a moment and said to him, "Sheng Wenxi, I am very grateful for your appreciation and I am glad that you can tell me these words today. I don't deny that your starting point is for my own good, but your approach is indeed not suitable for me."
He looked at Sheng Wenxi and said rationally, "I am willing to accept your apology and I forgive you. However, I still don't want to cooperate with you for the time being. Maybe when I am more mature in the future, I will be willing to do so. But now, you can't expect me to forget the past in an instant. So, let's keep a certain distance between the director and the actor. If I like a role in your script, then I will audition. If I don't like it, don't force me. Okay?"
"So if we meet again, can we still sit together and have a friendly chat like we do now?"
"Of course you can." Ji Qingzhou said, "But the premise is that you have to respect my opinion and don't repeatedly bring up the things I rejected and entangle me with them."
"good."
"You won't be on the set tomorrow, right?" Ji Qingzhou asked.
Sheng Wenxi nodded, "If this is what you want, I respect you."
"Thanks."
"So, do you want some shrimp dumplings?" Sheng Wenxi handed him the shrimp dumplings beside her.
Ji Qingzhou thought about it, picked up one, and said to him, "Thank you."
