In the private room, all the dishes have been served.
Wen Xi faced He Yan with an apologetic expression, "Sorry, I made you laugh."
"Are you often bullied like this?" He Yan's brows were filled with displeasure.
Wen Xi shook his head and said softly, "No, and even if someone does bully me, I will bully him back. I will not suffer any loss."
He Yan's eyebrows softened a little, but only a little, "Sometimes, you shouldn't bear everything alone."
This sentence was full of profound meaning, and Wen Xi could not help but be touched in his heart.
"The dishes are cold, let's eat." Wen Xi changed the topic, not wanting him to get involved in these trivial matters, otherwise he would be "contaminated".
"When will this drama be broadcast?" He Yan randomly found a topic.
"Next year, I haven't decided yet."
"What scenes were filmed this week?"
"Most of them are scenes with the heroine and some palace maids."
He Yan put the fish meat with picked fish bones into her bowl and asked as if unintentionally, "Where is Prince Rui?"
Wen Xi was quite surprised and asked with a smile, "How does Mr. He know about Prince Yourui? Have you also read the novel "The Legend of Queen Xue"?"
He Yan lowered his eyes lightly, "I knew it accidentally."
Having said that, he had a picture in his mind of him taking some time to make fun of the character Sang on Baidu online. On the Baidu results, the most talked about is the emotional scene between Nong Sang and Prince Rui. Four words can describe it: love but not getting it.
Wen Xi nodded and said, "The actor who plays Prince Rui hasn't arrived yet. He is a Korean star and is quite busy. It will probably take a few days before he arrives."
Wen Xi casually found Park Junyun's photo from his phone and handed it to him, "Look, it's him. His last drama was very popular. He participated in many programs and filmed many commercials. His exposure rate is very high. You You should have seen this face.”
He Yan raised his eyes lightly and glanced at the photo. He only felt that the lips were red and the teeth were white, and the eyes were light blue, but there was no trace of mixed race or European and American features on his facial features.
If he hadn't seen the obvious Adam's apple, He Yan would have thought he was a beautiful woman.
"How is it?" Wen Xi asked casually.
"Um."
He Yan's tone was very light, and the "um" came out of his throat, a little stuffy and heavy, with no clear meaning.
Wen Xi took the phone back calmly and stopped mentioning Park Junyun.
After finishing the meal, He Yan proposed to take her to the door of the hotel. Wen Xi was afraid that others would misunderstand him and have a bad influence on him, so he stopped him at the street corner.
She said goodbye to him and walked back.
Seeing the figure slowly walking away, He Yan suddenly called out to her.
"Xixi."
After several meters, Wen Xi stopped and turned around to wait for his next words.
He Yan raised his watch and pointed at it, "Call me if you need anything, I'll be here at any time."
Wen Xi couldn't help but look at his left hand. Because it was inconvenient for filming, he took off the watch and now put it in the hotel suitcase.
The man's deep and gentle voice penetrated into her heart silently, setting off waves of throbbing like a violent storm inside.
Facing the man's bottomless eyes, she couldn't help but nodded.
After returning to the hotel, the first thing she did was to open her suitcase and find the watch.
Touching the small button on top, a molasses-covered smile slowly appeared on her lips.
That night, she fell asleep wearing this watch and had a good night's sleep. When she woke up naturally, it was just half past six, still an hour and a half before her start time.
Isha was fast asleep in the bed next to her, and her sleeping position changed again.
Wen Xi smiled helplessly, washed up gently, then went downstairs and ran around a few times, bringing back breakfast for the two of them.
While looking at her phone, she suddenly realized that the messages Wei Kexin sent her were all simple words of greetings, just to maintain the image of a good mother she had cultivated for so many years.
Wen Xi only responded with an OK gesture, just to stop her from sending it again.
She felt sick when she thought that Wei Kexin would betray her father in the future.
But before this happened, she couldn't convince her father to believe her even with a thousand words.
She could only use her own strength to wait until after the incident happened, and try to change it for the better, so that her father would be less hurt.
Wei Kexin sent her another message—
[Your sister will be on the set tonight. For the sake of both of you, try not to let others discover your relationship. However, if you have any difficulties, just tell your sister privately and she will help you solve it.]
Wenqing's schedule is very full, and she won't be able to get to the set until tonight.
Wen Xi locked the screen of her phone, suppressed those bad emotions, and walked into the elevator.
"Wait a minute!"
One hand reached into the compartment door that was about to close, and Wen Xi hurriedly pressed the door open button.
Chen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. When he saw it was Wen Xi, he smiled and said, "Why are you alone?"
"Go out and buy some breakfast."
Chen Yuan nodded, "It's good to get up early, it's good for your health. By the way, I almost forgot to tell you, there is a banquet tomorrow night. Many famous directors and agency bosses will be there. I happen to have a quota here. You come with me to get to know more people and expand your network."
Naturally, Wen Xi would not let go of the opportunity to expand his network, "Thank you, producer Chen, for giving me the opportunity. I will go."
"Why are you thanking me? When you become famous one day, I will be an old hero. This is my idea. Otherwise, do you think I will waste my efforts to help you?" He said half-jokingly.
The elevator door opened and the two of them walked out.
Wen Xi smiled and said nothing.
Chen Yuan raised his eyebrows and smiled happily, "Okay, it just so happens that you won't have a role tomorrow night. You can dress up well then. Don't worry about the clothing issue. I'll help you solve it."
By coincidence, as soon as he finished saying this, Luo Yu came out of the aisle next to him and seemed to pass by accidentally.
When Wen Xi saw him, he said hello to Chen Yuan and returned to the room.
The dissatisfaction in Luo Yu's eyes dissipated as Wen Xi closed the door. Seeing that Chen Yuan was about to leave, she quickly grabbed him and said with a smile, "Producer Chen, what were you talking about just now? What kind of clothes?"
Chen Yuan's expression changed and he pushed her hand away, "It's nothing, nothing."
Luo Yu pouted and acted coquettishly, "Brother Chen Yuan, you are unfair. We are all newcomers. Why do you only take care of her and not me and the other juniors?"
Chen Yuan explained helplessly, "There is a banquet tomorrow night. I need a female companion. Wen Xi happens to be free, so I asked her to accompany me."
Luo Yu rolled her eyes, "What kind of banquet is it?"
"Oh, don't ask so many questions. Aren't we going to start work soon? Let's go have breakfast."
Luo Yu continued to act coquettishly, "No, if people don't know, the filming will not be successful today."
Chen Yuan was really afraid of her, so he had to say, "It's just an ordinary banquet where people in the industry go to get together. As for why I have to go to Wen Xi, I'm not afraid to tell you that I'm interested in her, want to pursue her, and like someone." I want to give her the best, are you satisfied with my reason?"
Luo Yu was shocked, but she grabbed Chen Yuan when he was about to leave, "Why are you chasing after him? He already has a boyfriend!"
Chen Yuan didn't have a very good impression of Luo Yu and just thought she was talking nonsense, "Okay, you can go have breakfast quickly."
After that, he left in a hurry.
