Li Yining said nothing, and all he could hear was the man's breath.

After a moment, Huo Shen gently pinched her red earlobe and chuckled, "Why don't you say anything?"

Li Yining blushed, buried her head in his neck and said "hmm", "Can I return it if I don't want it?"

Huo Shen: “…”

"cannot."

He lowered his eyes and stared at her, his eyes full of warning.

Li Yining chuckled and looked at him with a frown: "Why are you still asking?"

She hooked Huo Shen's arm around him, kissed the corner of his lips, and said with a smile: "Since I can't return it, I'll take it reluctantly."

Huo Shen said nothing, just looked at her quietly.

Li Yining felt embarrassed by his look, so he coughed lightly and shifted his attention again.

"but--"

She blinked and looked at Huo Shen: "There is a problem."

"Hmm?" Huo Shen raised his eyebrows, his voice low and pleasant.

Li Yining rubbed his ears, pursed his lips and said, "I just told Xiaoyu that I was here to pick up a gift. What should I do if they ask about it when I go back?"

Huo Shen looked at the cunning in her eyes and responded lazily.

"What do you say?"

Li Yining stared at him: "I'm asking you."

Huo Shen smiled suddenly, and his brows relaxed a lot.

He pinched her cheek helplessly and lovingly, then reached out and pulled out a box from the side: "For you."

"What?"

Li Yining looked down, and his eyes lit up when he saw the logo icon above.

She looked at Huo Shen in surprise, as if she couldn't believe he would give her this.

"Don't you like this brand of necklace?"

Li Yining said nothing.

Huo Shen said calmly: "I ordered it for you before. It has just been delivered."

He smiled, looked at her stunned expression, kissed her, and coaxed her, "Open it and see if you like it?"

Li Yining: “Yeah.”

Her fingers were trembling a little as she opened the boxes one by one.

Inside the box lay an exquisite necklace with a diamond pendant in the shape of a star. More importantly, the diamond was pink.

Items of this brand have always been very expensive. Of course, money is not the point for them. The point is that Li Yining just started to like it not long ago. She mentioned it to Jian Yuanyuan by chance when they were reading a magazine at home. She didn't expect Huo Shen to know about it.

I even gave myself a custom one.

"This necklace—"

"What?"

Li Yining looked at him in surprise: "How do you know I like this?"

Huo Shen didn't say anything. He picked up the necklace and looked at her: "Let me try it on for you?"

She blinked, "Okay."

Li Yining has fair skin, and the necklace looks particularly good on her, especially the pendant, which is light pink and glows. Not only is it valuable, it also makes her skin look more rosy and fair, which is extremely attractive.

"Does it look good?"

Huo Shen stared at it for a moment, his Adam's apple rolled, and he kissed the pendant, and asked in a low voice: "What do you think?"

He demonstrated it through his actions.

Li Yining's heartbeat quickened, and he touched the pendant with a red face: "Thank you."

Huo Shen smiled: "Yeah. Thank you?"

Li Yining: “…”

She looked at the man in front of her in surprise.

Huo Shen chuckled, leaned close to her ear and whispered, "You're welcome?"

Li Yining: “…Yes.”

She was speechless and glanced at Huo Shen coquettishly: "I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go back to filming."

Huo Shen lowered his eyes, looked at her shy expression for a while, and silently curled his lips: "Okay."

"What about you?"

Huo Shen tilted his head, paused, and said, "I'm here to see you. I'll go in with you."

"...Oh." Li Yining's lips curled up and he responded coldly with a suppressed excited tone.

——

The two of them turned back together, and most people on the set looked at them.

But not so blatantly.

Li Yining had just put on some makeup in the car, so she wasn't afraid of being seen at this moment.

As for Huo Shen, he was even more frank.

When Director Shen heard someone coming, he also came out from the side.

He looked at Huo Shen and whistled: "Hey, what wind brings Teacher Huo here?"

Huo Shen raised his eyelids and looked at him: "Director Shen."

Director Shen chuckled and teased, "What is Mr. Huo here for? Is he here to visit me? Is he here to visit me or -"

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Huo Shen.

He looked calm and not embarrassed at all: "I'm visiting Li Yining."

The smile on Director Shen's face froze.

The other staff members couldn't help but chuckle.

Mo Congnan appeared from the other side, laughing wildly: "Director Shen, are you...looking for trouble on purpose?"

He pointed and said, "The whole world knows that Teacher Huo is pursuing our Ning Ning, and you still go and ask."

Director Shen: “…”

Huo Shen raised his eyebrows, glanced at Mo Congnan, then looked at his wife, and asked slowly, "Our Ningning?"

Everyone: “…”

No, Mr. Huo, you haven't even caught up with anyone yet, why are you so jealous?!

Director Shen was stunned just now, and now he is very happy: "Yes, it is our Ningning, what's wrong?"

Huo Shen sneered and glanced at the man pretending to be an ostrich not far away: "It's okay."

He nodded slightly: "Everyone is right."

He paused and added, "Please take good care of Ningning while she is on the set."

Everyone: “…”

The way she said this...Teacher Huo seemed to have reserved a spot for her boyfriend.

Everyone was choked for a moment and couldn't say a word.

After a while, Li Yining coughed and looked at everyone: "Aren't you working yet?"

Director Shen glanced at her and said, "Take a break. There's no rush."

Suddenly, Fu Meng turned to look at her, her eyes lit up: "Wow! Ningning! Is that a new necklace around your neck?"

Li Yining: “…Ah.”

All of a sudden, everyone in the crew's eyes fell on her neck.

Twenty minutes later, a netizen revealed that Teacher Huo showed up at Li Yining's crew. Not only did he give coffee and desserts to the crew members, he also gave Li Yining flowers and a necklace, showing his eagerness to pursue her.

Fans: ????

Is this still the stubborn teacher Huo?

[After seeing this set of photos, I can no longer lie to myself. Our teacher Huo is really chasing after an 18th-tier celebrity.]

[I really want to know what it is about Li Yining that attracts our teacher Huo!!!]

[Fuck, fuck! That bouquet of flowers, I want to be that bouquet of flowers.]

[If nothing else, at this moment I am a lemon spirit! ]

【？ ？ ？ ？ 】

[Teacher Huo...how could you be so generous? You even gave me flowers and necklaces. You never accepted anything given to you by others before!]

[I am sure that Teacher Huo is serious.]

[Wuwuwuwu, my heart is broken, but actually I want to say... Li Yining is really good-looking. 】

[Honestly, looking at this photo, Teacher Huo was staring at Li Yining the whole time. Oh my god, which program production team should do something and invite Teacher Huo and Li Yining to be guests so that the two of them can have some in-depth contact, okay? ]

[Let’s go with the above for now. Otherwise, it would be too tiring for Teacher Huo to run to the crew to chase people! ]

…

When Li Yining saw the comments from netizens, he was shocked.

Are today's fans already so considerate of their idols?

Fu Meng snorted softly beside him: "It's not that I care about my love for you, it's mainly because Teacher Huo is different."

"What do you mean?"

Fu Meng looked at her and analyzed seriously: "Teacher Huo has been in the industry for many years. It's not that he has never had scandals, but he clarified them as soon as possible. He has never been involved with any actresses or other female artists."

"……oh."

Fu Meng didn't care whether Li Yining was interested or not, and continued to educate her little fans: "He is already 30 years old, and he finally has someone he likes. He is not a traffic star. Even if fans don't want him to fall in love, they still hope that he will fall in love."

The psychology of fans is probably so contradictory. They are reluctant to let the person they like like someone else, but they also hope that someone can take care of their brother so that he won't be so lonely and suffer so much.

At least when you go home, there is someone waiting for you, or a light left on occasionally can warm you up.

In fact, most fans are rational. They chase stars, but not blindly.

When they like someone, they just like him/her as a goal and a motivation, because it is worth it and because the person they like is excellent, which makes them feel moved and happy.

It's not really about possession.

There are sasaeng fans, but most of the small fans still have a very good mentality.

Li Yining understood this point clearly.

She hummed, a little surprised: "But what surprised me was... why didn't they scold me."

Fu Meng: "...I do, but who made you the first person that Teacher Huo publicly admitted to liking and pursuing? Isn't scolding you the same as scolding the idol? They can't bear to let go."

Li Yining listened and chuckled.

She poked at the message on her phone screen and smiled: "Okay, I'll try to be nice to you idols."

Hearing this, Fu Meng's eyes lit up and she looked at her happily: "So you agreed to Teacher Huo?"

Li Yining stood up calmly and glanced at her: "I'm talking about the future."

Fu Meng: “…”

——

Huo Shen was on the set, sitting with Director Shen.

Director Shen looked at him and asked, "Give Ning Ning some guidance?"

Huo Shen replied calmly: "Is she not good at acting?"

Director Shen chuckled: "That's not the case. The play is good, but it lacks some meaning."

He thought for a moment and said, "Ningning is not very good at acting in romantic scenes."

Huo Shen hummed, looked at the beautiful girl not far away, and a rare smile appeared on his face.

"normal."

He looked at Director Shen: "She doesn't need to act out emotional scenes with others."

Director Shen: “…”

I can't chat any more today.

Director Shen glanced at Huo Shen with disdain and muttered, "Are you so chauvinistic?"

Huo Shen smiled and didn't explain further.

"It will be better in the future."

Director Shen: "...Shut up, I have to start filming."

After a scene was finished, Li Yining trotted over to Huo Shen.

"I'm done."

Huo Shen: "Go change your clothes and I'll take you to dinner."

Li Yining's eyes lit up and he replied quickly, "Okay."

After that, she looked at the director and said, "Director, can I leave now?"

Director Shen was speechless and waved his hand: "Hurry up and leave."

Li Yining and Huo Shen left, and no one on the set could gossip about them anymore.

After leaving the set, Li Yining didn't dare to get too close to Huo Shen. After all, they were now in a relationship of pursuer and pursued, so it was better to keep a certain distance.

The two of them did not go out to eat. When Di Zi returned to the small villa, dinner had already been delivered to them.

Li Yining ate a lot.

I have to say that Huo Shen’s chef’s cooking skills are really good.

"Did you ask the chef to come over specially?"

Huo Shen said "hmm" and looked at her excited expression: "Very happy?"

Li Yining's eyes sparkled: "It's super delicious."

Huo Shen chuckled, pinched her face, lowered his head and kissed her: "Then let the chef stay here in the future?"

“No, no.”

Li Yining refused without a second thought and said softly, "Normally it's just Xiaoyu and I, and we have to film, so we don't have much time to enjoy ourselves. We can just eat with everyone, don't make it too special."

Living outside was already very unruly, and Li Yining really didn't want to cook on the stove while eating on the set.

Huo Shen nodded and agreed to her request.

"If you want to eat, call Uncle Xu anytime."

"good."

After dinner, Li Yining took a look and said, "Let me clean up."

"Need not."

Huo Shen looked at her: "I'll ask someone to come over, you go and have a rest."

Li Yining: “…”

She was silent for a few seconds, not knowing why. Huo Shen's words "rest" seemed to be full of hints.

After thinking for a while, Li Yining coughed and said, "I'm going to take a shower."

After saying this, she ran away without waiting for Huo Shen's response.

Huo Shen paused, looking at the figure trotting away, with a smile on his lips, looking very happy.
