After a while, Shen Jue came back and returned the phone to her, “Shen Yu wants to talk to you.”
Yu Rou took the phone and put it to her ear, and heard Shen Yu say, "Mom, you and Dad will be back after dinner. Don't eat too fast. I'm not hungry at all. There are plenty of food at home, including fruits and snacks. I'll wait for you at home."
Yu Rou looked at Shen Jue blankly and said softly, "What's going on?"
Shen Yu said, "Goodbye, Mom," and hung up the phone.
Yu Rou asked Shen Jue: "What did you say to him? Why did he suddenly change?"
“Nothing, go in.” Shen Jue locked the car and walked in front.
Yu Rou and Shen Jue had been to this restaurant once before. It was difficult to book a seat, but as soon as Shen Jue entered and reported his name, the two were led by the waiter to the best private room.
Yu Rou asked him, "Have you reserved a seat?"
Shen Jue: “Yeah.”
Yu Rou didn't even notice him making the call, "When was the appointment made?"
This restaurant has a good environment and a romantic atmosphere, so it is usually visited by couples. Shen Jue brought her here to eat, and his intention was very obvious.
However, Shen Jue had been so capricious in the past two days that Yu Rou suspected he was not the same person during the day and at night.
"It was decided before I came here." Shen Jue said calmly.
After entering the private room, the two sat down facing each other. Shen Jue handed the menu to Yu Rou, "What do you want to eat?"
Yu Rou blocked it for a moment and shook her head, "You order it."
Shen Jue: “Yeah.”
He flipped through a few pages of the menu. The dishes mentioned were all Yu Rou's favorites, or rather, the original owner's favorites. Perhaps it was because the system made it easier for Yu Rou to replace the original owner, so generally, the preferences of the hosts she inhabited were almost the same as her own.
After the waiter left, Yu Rou couldn't help but ask tentatively: "That divorce matter..."
Shen Jue's originally gentle eyes suddenly became gloomy. He looked at Yu Rou and slowly opened his lips, "I'll say it again, don't say these two words again."
Yu Rou thought, this time, he is not admitting the divorce.
Could it be that Shen Jue has schizophrenia? Is he the same person during the day and at night?
The more Yu Rou thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case. The personality she had during the day was not the same as the current one. The current personality should not remember the divorce.
Yu Rou fell into thought and didn't speak for a long time.
The atmosphere in the room was a little depressing, and Shen Jue looked at her several times without any expression.
Yu Rou casually flipped through her phone to ease the embarrassment.
When the waiter came in to serve the food, the silence in the room was broken. However, Yu Rou remained silent, her expression expressionless, as if she was unhappy. Shen Jue frowned imperceptibly and asked her, "I heard that you are currently filming a movie, and you are playing the third female role?"
"Yeah." Yu Rou didn't understand why he suddenly asked this. She put down her phone, looked up and said, "We're almost done filming, but there might be some changes."
She didn't mention much about the director wanting to give her more scenes, after all, the film hadn't even started yet.
Shen Jue said, "Do you want to play the leading female role?"
Yu Rou: "What do you mean?"
Shen Jue was silent for a moment, then said, "Don't mention divorce anymore. You can just play the leading female role in this play."
Yu Rou: “…”
Shen Jue: "Why don't you speak?"
Yu Rou: "No, I prefer my current role."
Although the heroine in the drama "The Face Reader" has many roles, she is just a vase. Compared with this movie, it is a male-centered movie that focuses on power struggles and intrigues. The role of the heroine is just to be the male protagonist's confidant. She has no outstanding qualities and is not as good as the role of Ling Qingchen she is playing now.
Shen Jue was surprised that Yu Rou refused without even thinking. Shen Jue said this because it was not an easy thing to do. Not to mention that the filming had already started and the heroine had been decided, and he was not the investor of this film. The most important thing was that he knew Yu Rou's acting skills were not very good.
But he was willing to do such a difficult task because he thought Yu Rou would want the role of the heroine in this play. Yu Rou's company had tried to fight for it for her before, but she was completely uncompetitive. In the end, it took a lot of effort to get her the third female role.
Who knew that Yu Rou would reject him outright.
"Really, there's no need." Yu Rou said again.
Shen Jue stared at her, not knowing what he was thinking. His expression became increasingly gloomy. He lowered his head and suddenly sneered.
Yu Rou frowned secretly, feeling a little wary.
"Because of Ji Youjun?"
Shen Jue finally spoke, but his voice was cold and without a trace of warmth, a chill penetrated into Yu Rou's ears.
Yu Rou said calmly, "What does it have to do with Ji Youjun?"
There was a coldness on the corner of Shen Jue's mouth. "You really want to leave me? Just because of him?"
"What do you mean?"
How could Yu Rou possibly admit this? She could only play dumb and blame the other person. "I have nothing to do with him. What do you mean by that?"
Shen Jue stood up and walked behind her, leaning close to her ear, breathing on her earlobe, "Do you really think I don't know what you're thinking?"
"What am I thinking? Tell me." Yu Rou lowered her eyes to hide the smile in her eyes.
Shen Jue put his hands on her shoulders, holding her down hard. Yu Rou couldn't move, and felt like she was under a spell of immobilization.
"If you dare to mention divorce again, I will make him regret meeting you."
"What are you going to do?" Yu Rou felt that this personality of Shen Jue was much more interesting than his during the day. He even used Ji Youjun to threaten her. Unfortunately, Yu Rou didn't care at all.
