Chapter 299, Extra Chapter Sixteen: Back to Modern Times 16



no the same?

"No, right?"

She felt that Gu Ye treated everyone fairly.

Cui Jia didn't know what to say. She was the one who went to get the milk tea, but when Gu Yingdi's assistant gave it to her, it was taken out of a separate bag, and there was no brand on the milk tea. That was quite different.

Also, she remembered that a few days ago, Youqing casually mentioned that she wanted to drink milk tea. At that time, Gu Yingdi was behind her and should have heard it. In the past few days, the crew has been providing a steady stream of milk tea, so it's no wonder that Cui Jia was overthinking it.

Seeing Youqing's disbelieving look, Cui Jia decided to keep quiet. Gu Ye was known for his excellent reputation in the industry. If he was truly sincere, it would be a good thing for the two of them to be together in the future. There was no need for her to expose this matter; letting things take their natural course might be better.

On Gu Ye's side, his assistant said, "Brother Ye, the milk tea has been sent to Teacher Shu."

"Okay, I understand."

The assistant looked at Gu Ye as if he wanted to say something but hesitated. Gu Ye looked at him and asked, "What do you want to say?"

"Brother Ye, just say it directly if you like Teacher Shu. These days, people who do good deeds quietly are always the second male lead, and they never get a good outcome."

Gu Ye glanced at him: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

The assistant quickly shrank back. Of course he didn't dare, but these days, if you like a girl, you should express it directly. Being so subtle might really lead to disaster.

The filming process went smoothly. She stayed on set for nearly four months before filming wrapped up. However, while she finished filming, the crew was still filming. The remaining scenes mainly focused on the relationship between the male and female leads.

The male protagonist lost his red rose, and through his family's arrangement, he married the girl who used to wait for him in the corner. The girl has a very good personality, the opposite of Han Ling's, and is also a very good person.

Gu Ye gradually accepted the female lead, and the two got together like a happy couple in an ordinary family. However, the male lead no longer had the reckless courage he used to have. He slowly became more stable and peaceful.

At the end of the script, the female lead has an inner monologue. She says, "I married the man I loved, and he treated me sincerely as I wished. But I can no longer find the courage to do anything for him that I once had. I seem to like the man who doesn't like me more than this thoughtful and considerate man. It's as if he married me with his body, and every step he took was measured by a ruler, but he used his soul to accompany another woman."

The movie is actually quite thought-provoking, and it seems to be hinting at some aspects of love in today's society.

After leaving the film set, Youqing's life was filled with various work. She has been quite popular recently, with some cameo roles in film crews, some good variety shows, some endorsements, and some magazine shoots. In short, she is so busy that she has no free time at all.

By the time Youqing was able to rest for two days, it had been a month since she left the film set.

She was woken up by the noise, and when she checked her phone, it was already 10:30. She had gotten home late yesterday and overslept.

The people upstairs are moving.

After washing up, it was already eleven o'clock. She planned to make herself some food, opened the refrigerator, and found that it was empty.

She was going to the supermarket in her neighborhood to buy some groceries.

Youqing now lives in a relatively upscale community in City A. It has good security and was quite expensive when it was first opened. The people who can live here are people who value privacy, including celebrities and business people.

There's a large supermarket in the neighborhood that sells high-end daily necessities. The vegetables and meats there are supposedly all-natural, and the prices are a bit higher than outside, but whether that's true or not is hard to verify.

She went down wearing a mask and a hat.

I took the trash out of the house with me when I left.

When I entered the elevator, there was already someone inside. She lived on the floor above her. Since each floor in this building is one apartment, this person must be the person living on the floor above her, the one who moved in this morning.

Youqing didn't dare to look at others, but vaguely recognized their figures.

Gu Ye suddenly spoke up: "What a coincidence, you live in this neighborhood too?"

Youqing was startled when she heard the familiar voice: "Teacher Gu, you live upstairs from me?"

“I just moved here because my old neighborhood was discovered. A few days ago, some stalkers went there, so I moved.”

While most of Gu Ye's fans are rational, there are also some who are not so rational.

This matter even made it to the trending searches a few days ago, and Youqing knew about it, but she didn't expect that this person would move to the apartment above hers, which was quite a coincidence.

However, Youqing never doubted that quite a few celebrities lived in this community.

I went downstairs, threw away the trash, and then headed to the supermarket.

Youqing noticed that Gu Ye was following her: "Teacher Gu, are you going to the supermarket too?"

Gu Ye nodded: "I just moved, so I'm buying some things to take back with me."

Once inside the supermarket, the two started browsing. Youqing originally thought Gu Ye would go back to the daily necessities section, but to her surprise, he did the same thing as her, browsing the ingredients and fruits section. In the end, the two even went to the snacks section together.

Youqing didn't think Gu Ye was the type to eat snacks, but since it was a private matter, she didn't ask any further questions.

After buying her things, Youqing was about to head back.

The two of them went back together.

Once inside the elevator, Gu Ye finally spoke: "I just moved today, and I was supposed to invite some friends over for a housewarming party, but none of them could come. It's not fun for me to eat alone, so why don't you come up and have lunch with me? It would be a favor to me."

Gu Ye portrayed himself as pitiful, and mentioned that he had taken good care of her on set. Since it wasn't a big deal—just a meal together—she agreed.

"Okay, I'll go back and then go see Teacher Gu."

After Youqing returned home, she left the snacks at home. Gu Ye had bought a lot of fruit and enough ingredients. The two of them bought about the same amount of food; almost whatever she bought, Gu Ye bought too.

But it felt a bit strange not to bring anything. After thinking about it, I decided to bring a bottle of wine instead. It was a low-alcohol red wine, which she didn't really like to drink, but it would be good to bring it to cook with.

When Gu Ye opened the door for You Qing, he was wearing an apron, which made him look more down-to-earth.

Youqing was taken aback for a moment, then handed the wine to Gu Ye.

Gu Ye accepted the wine: "Please sit down first, I'll go to the kitchen."

Youqing felt embarrassed to just wait around for the meal, so she offered, "I'll go help out!"

Gu Ye didn't stand on ceremony and agreed. The two of them busied themselves in the kitchen. Gu Ye would ask about her work from time to time, as if they were having a casual chat. You Qing gradually relaxed.

In fact, Youqing also found it strange, feeling that Gu Ye was someone she couldn't guard against.

If she hadn't met another male actor today, she definitely wouldn't have come over.

The bottle of red wine that Youqing had was used to make red wine beef.

Lunch was mainly cooked by Gu Ye, and it tasted pretty good. There were four dishes and a soup for the two of them, all of which Youqing liked.
