Chapter 543 Stayed at his house for a few days
Fang Liwo was sitting in the back seat, holding a fashion magazine in her hand, but she had no interest in reading it. Her eyes were fixed on Zhou Yufan in the front driver's seat.
"Hey, senior."
Wen Yang poked Zhou Yufan's shoulder with her fingertips, her voice filled with irrepressible gossip, "Just tell me, there's no one else here, just the three of us, what's there to hide?"
Zhou Yufan sighed helplessly, changed his hand to hold the steering wheel, leaned back in the chair, glanced sideways at Wen Yang's unyielding look, and finally gave in.
"Nothing, it's just that Jingsen's parents are traveling abroad, and he feels lonely spending the New Year alone."
"And then what?" Wen Yang pressed on, fearing he would miss any crucial information.
"I have too many relatives at home, and they keep pushing me to go on blind dates. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I stayed at his house for a few days."
Zhou Yufan said it lightly, as if it was just a simple matter of staying at a friend's house for one night.
"How many days did you stay?"
Wen Yang's eyes widened, and her tone was filled with excitement. "Didn't anything happen during the past few days when you two lived together? For example... talking late at night? Or cooking together? Or..."
"Wen Yang!"
Zhou Yufan interrupted her increasingly outrageous speculations, a flicker of unnaturalness in his eyes, "Don't let your imagination run wild, we're just normal friends."
"Can normal friendships allow you to stay at someone else's house for a few days instead of going home for the New Year?"
Wen Yang obviously didn't believe it and wanted to ask again, but Fang Li gently pulled his arm.
"Okay, Yangyang, stop teasing him."
Fang Li smiled and shook her head. "We're almost on set, so let's think about meeting with the director later."
Wen Yang curled her lips. Although she was unwilling, she knew that now was not a good time to ask further questions, so she had to give up for the time being.
But looking at her eyes, it was obvious that she had no intention of letting Zhou Yufan go just like that.
Zhou Yufan breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at Fang Li gratefully through the rearview mirror.
But the days at Jingsen's house involuntarily emerged in my mind. Although my eyes were still looking at the road ahead, they became a little vague.
Actually, there's nothing special about it.
We just curl up on the sofa and watch movies together, clumsily cook dumplings together in the kitchen, and chat together on the balcony while watching the fireworks outside the window.
Jingsen doesn't talk much, but he always hands him a glass of warm water when he needs it, or silently helps him organize messy documents.
Those ordinary moments are like warm water boiling tea, slowly seeping into the heart, bringing an indescribable warmth.
He shook his head, suppressing these thoughts, and his face returned to its usual calmness.
More than an hour later, the car slowly stopped outside the set.
From a distance, a huge set was set up on the set, and staff members were coming and going, carrying props and equipment, creating a busy scene.
The director and producer had been waiting there for a long time. When they saw Fang Li and the others get out of the car, they immediately came over to greet them warmly.
"Mr. Fang, Mr. Zhou, Mr. Wen, you are finally here."
The director, who was in his forties, wore a simple smile. "We're waiting for you to come and see the set so we can finalize the details for tomorrow's shoot."
"Director Wang, you're too polite."
Fang Li smiled and shook his hand. "Thank you for your hard work. You didn't get a good rest during the New Year."
"Of course I should."
Director Wang quickly waved his hands and said, "It is our honor to be able to participate in the filming of the drama "The Dream".
"Besides, isn't it the same for everyone in our industry? It's better to have a film to shoot than to be unemployed at home."
Wen Yang laughed: "Director Wang is right."
The group watched and talked, and Director Wang reported the progress in detail, from scene arrangement to actor scheduling, no matter how big or small.
Zhou Yufan and Fang Li would occasionally offer one or two suggestions.
"Could the lighting in this scene be softer?"
Fang Li said, "Our play, The Dream, is mainly based on dream narratives. I think the dim lighting will be more in line with the theme."
Upon hearing this, Director Wang's eyes lit up, "Boss Xu is right. I'll have someone make adjustments right away."
Several people continued to walk forward.
Later, Zhou Yufan pointed out that the placement of a certain prop could be more in line with the plot setting. Director Wang and the executive producer took careful note of it and immediately arranged for someone to make the changes.
It was already evening when we finished the work on the set.
Director Wang booked a very distinctive local restaurant in Kuncheng and invited everyone to dinner, so that everyone could meet up before filming started.
The group drove to the restaurant.
When Fang Li and the others arrived, there were already quite a few people sitting in the box, all of whom were core members of the crew, as well as several leading actors.
As soon as Wen Yang sat down, his eyes lit up. He poked Fang Li next to him and said in a low voice, "Look, Jing Sen is here too."
Fang Li followed her gaze.
Jingsen was seen sitting by the window, wearing a simple white shirt. He was talking to the actor next to him with his head down. His profile was clean and neat, and his temperament was gentle.
He seemed to notice their gazes, raised his head and smiled at them gently.
Zhou Yufan happened to come over with a cup of water. When he saw Jingsen's smile, his eyes moved slightly and he quickly looked away.
Wen Yang saw it all, and the gossip fire in her heart burned again. She winked at Zhou Yufan with an expression that said "I saw it".
Zhou Yufan felt uncomfortable when she looked at him, so he picked up the menu and pretended to study it.
Soon, everyone arrived and the food started to be served.
Kuncheng cuisine is known for its freshness and lightness. Several special dishes are served with a fragrant aroma that whets one's appetite.
But when Fang Li smelled it, she felt a sour feeling in her stomach and felt a little uncomfortable.
Director Wang raised his glass and stood up. "It's fate that we're all here today. Let me offer a toast to everyone. Thank you, Mr. Xu and Mr. Zhou, for your trust in us and for entrusting us with such an excellent project as 'The Dream'. I also wish us a smooth filming and hope that the ratings will exceed 10,000!"
"cheers!"
Everyone raised their glasses, and the atmosphere in the box instantly became lively.
Zhou Yufan and Fang Li also said a few simple words, which were nothing more than thanking everyone for their hard work and hoping for a pleasant cooperation.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, everyone became more and more engaged in the conversation and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
Only Fang Li went to the restroom several times during the meal.
Wen Yang had sensed something was wrong a long time ago, and when he saw her stand up again, he immediately followed her.
As I walked to the bathroom door, I heard a suppressed vomiting sound coming from inside.
Wen Yang pushed open the door and saw Fang Li leaning against the sink, retching in front of it, her face pale.
"Pear, what's wrong with you?"
Wen Yang hurried over and patted her back gently, his tone full of worry, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Fang Li vomited for a long time before she recovered. She took the tissue that Wen Yang handed over, wiped her mouth, and said with a wry smile, "It's okay, I just feel a little nauseous."
Wen Yang looked at her pale face and thought of what happened before she returned to Haicheng. His suspicions grew deeper and deeper. He asked tentatively, "You...could it be...that you are really pregnant?"
