Top Chinese celebrity: Debuted from Running Man

Chapter 409 Old Deng's Call (8k)
……

……

"Mwah... Chu..."

The subtle yet clear sound stood out starkly in the silent office, like a pebble thrown into a still lake.

The ripples spread out in concentric circles, adding a touch of enchanting beauty to the enclosed space.

"No, no..."

"This rhythm is off..."

Why is no one saying anything...?

Gu Qing's rationality sounded an alarm in her mind.

Time seems to slow down dramatically under the amplification of our senses; each second feels like a stretched, sticky, and scorching thread of sugar.

I do not know how long it has been,

It may only last a few dozen seconds, but it feels like an eternity.

Gu Qing tried her best to immerse herself in the role of Xiao Nai, maintaining a degree of restraint and clarity, only lightly kissing the soft outer part of his lips, preserving the beauty and subtlety expected of an idol drama.

But until,
He suddenly felt a push on the back of his neck.
Jing Tian... has lost control!
Jing Tian tightened her arms around Gu Qing's back.

Those beautiful phoenix eyes completely lost focus, becoming hazy and misty, as if shrouded in the morning mist of a water town.

Her delicate, beautiful face, flushed almost to the point of bleeding, radiated an astonishing heat. Unconsciously, she tilted her head back, pressing her burning cheek tightly against Gu Qing's beautifully sculpted neck.
The cool, icy sensation emanating from the other person's skin, so different from her own, did not slow down the spread of the nameless heat in her heart; on the contrary, it amplified and intensified it!
No longer content with passively enduring, she began to clumsily yet passionately dab at the corners of his lips.

Finally, she parted her pearly teeth slightly and directly blocked his mouth with her mouthful.

"!!!"

Gu Qing opened her eyes slightly.

Li Zai…the Gan Snake Demon?!
Hey sis! We're filming a movie!!
Is this how you're supposed to improvise?!

"Chirp chirp...chirp..."

"Gulu~~"

The sound of swallowing saliva made it impossible to tell whose it was.

Witnessing all of this,
Zhou Ye watched as Zhang Jingyi's body went limp, her delicate face flushed red, and her almond-shaped eyes became wet. She hugged Zhang Jingyi tightly, burying her face in her shoulder to keep herself from screaming.

Gu Man and Lin Yufen, who was filming, watched with great interest, their eyes glued to the screen.

They like this kind of audacity.

As for Xiao Zhang?

She had already closed her eyes with tears in her eyes.

……

But the good times are not long,
An annoying sound appeared.

"Mr. Xiao, isn't it inappropriate to keep them waiting in the conference room for too long?"

Just outside the door, separated by a wall, came the teasing laughter of the employees.

in an instant,
Gu Qing breathed a sigh of relief; a few seconds later, he would have been dragged inside by Da Tiantian.

He tilted his head back slightly, letting in the hard-won fresh air.

Before Gu Qing could catch her breath,
Jing Tian seemed completely immersed in the play; the warm, comfortable feeling vanished, and her phoenix eyes were half-closed.

She let out a pitiful, coquettish hum, instinctively not wanting to leave, and tilted her little face back to chase after him.

"Lu Xiaotian, wake up!!"

Gu Qing roared inwardly, forcefully pressing down on Da Tiantian's shoulders with both hands and immobilizing her.

Immediately,

He quickly took Jing Tian's jade-like hand, and the two looked into each other's eyes.

Gu Qing looked at her gently. Jing Tian bit her lower lip with her rabbit teeth, grinning adorably and looking back at him tenderly.

Silly rabbit! Say your lines!!

I waited for a few seconds, but there was still no response.
Gu Qing took her fair, alabaster-colored hand, gently kissed it on the back, and smiled tenderly, "Wait for me here."

He opened the office door and strode out.

"Crack——!"

Lin Yufen put down the camera, and had just finished speaking.

"Ahhh-"

The small office was instantly filled with screams.

Zhou Ye, along with the elderly Gu Man, jumped and skipped around, their faces flushed, covering their mouths, shouting louder than anyone else.

Jing Tian's body trembled, and she finally came to her senses, snapping out of her reverie.

She suddenly recalled her out-of-control behavior, and her face, which she thought couldn't be redder, turned even redder.

Jing Tian covered her face in embarrassment, squatted down, and buried her face in her shoulder, too ashamed to face anyone.

How could she have just done something so absurd?!

Was she also suppressing her feelings?!

At this time,

The closed door was opened again.

Gu Qing walked in.

Jing Tian, ​​who was squatting down, subconsciously raised her head and stole a glance at him.

Both of them awkwardly looked away.

Seeing this scene,
Lin Yufen frowned slightly.
This fire... doesn't look fierce enough.

"Director, how's it going? That last take... is it approved?"

The office door was pushed open again, and Gu Qing walked in, asking questions.

Lin Yufen put down the camera on her shoulder and stretched her slightly sore and numb arms.

Seeing the rare, youthful, and lively expression on Gu Qing's face, I couldn't help but chuckle, deliberately teasing him:

"Xiao Nai, aren't you being too impatient? This is only the first take, and you and Weiwei haven't even rehearsed the two most important lines yet, you've been so busy..."

Her gaze swept ambiguously between Gu Qing and Jing Tian, ​​who followed behind with flushed cheeks. "We were too busy chatting? How can that be considered enough?"

She adopted a professional and meticulous director's stance, waving her hand dismissively: "Let's make it one take! Let's strive for perfection and shoot the second take!"

"My mood and feelings are great; I just need to deliver my lines."

After all,

She picked up the camera again and shouted at Jing Tian, ​​who was still leaning against the wall as if her bones had been removed, "Weiwei, don't just stand there, get yourself together, let's do it again!"

"Director..."

Jing Tian's voice was soft and tearful, pleading for help, "My...my legs are numb, my whole body is limp, I can't muster any strength at all..."

She felt her knees were still slightly weak, and her heart was beating erratically. The previous ordeal had exhausted her strength and disturbed her mind.

Hearing this,

Gu Qing, who was turning to leave, stopped, turned to the side, and extended her hand.

"Thank...thank you, great...great master."

Jing Tian shyly grasped it, her voice stammering, her face bowed in embarrassment, and she used the leverage to stand up.

……

"See? That's the effect of the character and intimate scenes..."

Lin Yu nudged Gu Man beside him with his elbow, lowered his voice, and revealed a smug smile, "Looks like my 'strong medicine' is working a bit! The chemical reaction is kicking in, isn't it?"

Gu Man covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes sparkling with the same light: "Yes, the awkwardness has obviously decreased a lot, and the physical contact is more natural, but it's still not enough."

"Don't worry, I've already made arrangements. I've reserved the entire afternoon for them, enough time for them to get used to each other."

Watching Gu Qing and Jing Tian walk out side by side, one after the other, although they no longer held hands, their posture was obviously much closer.

Lin Yufen and Gu Man exchanged a knowing glance, their smiles growing increasingly sinister.

Don't assume that all female directors and screenwriters who have worked their way up in the entertainment industry are proper, delicate ladies.

The level of explicitness and openness in their private conversations sometimes far exceeds that of many male directors and screenwriters.

after all,

In this fiercely competitive and bizarre world of fame and fortune, those who are too delicate or naive simply cannot survive; they will be devoured long ago, leaving not even bones behind.

……

"My God... kissing all afternoon? This... this intensity is too much..."

Zhou Ye, a young student in the back, overheard the director and screenwriter's "conspiracy" and was so shocked that his mouth almost formed an "O".
"After kissing for so long, won't a person faint from lack of oxygen? Won't their lips get chafed and raw?"

She felt that her worldview had been slightly shaken.

"Two joys, two joys!"

Zhou Ye shook Zhang Jingyi, who seemed to have left her body, and whispered in her ear...

"I've heard all sorts of gossip in the entertainment industry before, saying that many artists easily fall in love with each other while filming, and break up as soon as filming wraps up."

I didn't believe it before; I thought it was all fabricated by the media to get clicks.
But... after watching that kissing scene between the senior and the female senior, I really believe it!

"Wow...this is amazing! They can develop feelings for each other even if they don't have any feelings for each other!"

She watched Gu Qing and Jing Tian leave, her eyes filled with complicated envy: "Who could resist being moved by kissing someone like my senior for an entire afternoon?"
"You know, what if we could work with a male actor as handsome and charming as you in the future? Wouldn't that be great?"

What if... what if we encounter someone really ugly, or with a terrible personality? Wouldn't we be at a huge disadvantage filming intimate scenes? It would be practically a workplace injury!

Just as she was rambling on and on, lost in her own fantasies, the girl who had been stiff in her arms suddenly began to struggle violently.

"I...I'm not going to watch the rest!"

Zhang Jingyi lowered her head and quickly made up an excuse, "I...I'm going outside to study the script and try to get a feel for 'Erxi'."

She didn't have the courage to watch any longer.

……

Stepping outside the office, the air seemed fresher.

Makeup artists were busily styling and applying makeup to celebrities who needed touch-ups, preparing for the upcoming photoshoot. The entire area was filled with a busy yet professional atmosphere.

"Erxi, why are you out here?"

Jing Tian tilted her head back, letting the makeup artist carefully touch up her lipstick, which had smudged and faded during filming, with cotton swabs, restoring its vibrant color.

She tilted her head and saw Zhang Jingyi walking out with her head down, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

Taking advantage of Gu Qing's temporary absence, she grew bolder and regained some of her former arrogance.
With a hint of teasing and a hint of her senior's banter, she asked with a smile, "Why don't you go inside and watch your senior film the kissing scene? What a great learning opportunity, a live lesson!"

"I…"

Before Zhang Jingyi could finish speaking, her little mouth twitched again in grievance. The bitterness she had just managed to suppress surged up again, and tears welled up in her eyes. She almost burst into tears on the spot.

Senior sister, if you stab me a few more times, I'll really kill myself right here!

In the end, she said nothing, but simply lowered her head deeply, sniffed hard, and swallowed back all the grievances and sadness.

Then he raised the script in his hand high, a script he couldn't understand a single word of, as if waving a white flag of surrender.

I don't even want to talk anymore.

I quickly ran to the sofa in the rest area, curled up in a corner, and chose to be alone and quiet.

After a while

Gu Qing also adjusted her mindset and returned to the starting point of the shoot.

Seeing this, Zhao Ya instinctively reached into her bag to take out the "all-purpose" milk candy and hand it over, but Gu Qing waved her hand and refused.

"No need, Sister Xiaoya."

His tone was somewhat helpless. It was just a piece of candy, but why did it suddenly feel like some kind of strange "catalyst"?
He was afraid that if she ate any more, she would lose control again during filming.

……

"Attention, all departments! Second shot, Action!"

Lin Yufen's strong voice rang out again, marking the start of a new round of "torture".

On the sofa in the distance, Zhang Jingyi, like an ostrich, completely covered her face below her eyes with the script, leaving only her almond-shaped eyes exposed.

She saw Gu Qing carrying his luggage again, walking ahead expressionlessly, while Jing Tian, ​​like a little rabbit, followed closely behind him with her head down and face flushed.

The two of them walked into that "devil's den" office again, one after the other.

"Bang—"

The door slammed shut again, cutting off her view.

Zhang Jingyi lowered her head, trying to focus her attention on the script on her knees and distract herself from her increasingly terrible thoughts.

however,
"Hey, tell me, did they kiss this time? They've been inside for quite a while now!"

"Of course they kissed! Didn't you see how much lighter her lipstick was when Weiwei came out to touch up her makeup? It must have smudged!"

"Not only that! I just peeked and it seems like Teacher Gu's lips are a little... um, a little swollen? It looks like the battle was quite intense!"

"Oh, I really want to go in and see it for myself! Just imagining it from the sounds is too much of a torture!"

The crew's barely suppressed gossip and whispers, like an insidious, penetrating whisper, clearly reached her ears, completely disrupting her thoughts of "studying seriously."

Various beautiful yet glaring images uncontrollably surfaced in my mind, becoming clearer and clearer, and increasingly "terrible".

Zhang Jingyi finally gave up resisting completely. She simply closed her eyes, steeled her resolve, and collapsed onto the soft sofa.

Then she picked up the thick script and slapped it over her entire face, as if that would shut out all the sounds and images from the outside world and hide herself in a safe darkness.

……

I don't know how much time passed; it felt like an eternity.

The director's shouts, "Cut! Let's do it again!" and "This take won't do, save one!" echoed repeatedly in my ears.

"The emotion isn't there! Weiwei, your lines are lacking!"

The voice said, "Okay, get ready for the next time!"

And the faint sound of the door opening and closing, closing and opening again.

"Erxi—"

Until Zhang Jingyi felt a sudden weight on her body, a warm, soft, and fragrant body fell beside her.
Accompanied by a weak, feeble wail, as if she had endured immense torment: "I...I can't go on..."

Startled by the commotion, Zhang Jingyi removed the script from her face, revealing Zhou Ye's flushed face, as if he were drunk.

Zhou Ye's face was pressed tightly against her shoulder, his temperature was frighteningly high, and his breathing was rapid and hot.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Jingyi was slightly startled and asked subconsciously.

"I...I can't watch anymore..."

Zhou Ye's voice seemed to be squeezed out of his throat, trembling, "If I stay in there any longer... I... I'm really going to go crazy..."

Her hot, disordered breathing sprayed haphazardly onto Zhang Jingyi's slender neck, bringing a ticklish sensation.

Zhou Ye felt as if his bones had been removed, collapsing limply onto Zhang Jingyi as if he had found a foothold.

"The senior students... they're so... so close now..."

Zhou Ye hesitated for a long time, unable to find the right words to describe it, and finally just let out a series of meaningless humming sounds filled with embarrassment and shock.
Then she buried her burning cheeks in Zhang Jingyi's not-so-broad but soft embrace, and let out a muffled, soul-searching cry: "I want a boyfriend! I want a boyfriend too! Now! Right now! Immediately!"

Zhang Jingyi: "..."

She... wanted it too.

but,

The "boyfriend" she envisioned for her ideal type was currently in the office just a door away, "working overtime" to film a movie and cultivate their relationship.

……

As the sun gradually dips westward from its intense midday heat, it paints the sky with a lazy and warm orange glow, heralding the arrival of dusk.

After many twists and turns, several hours passed in a series of "kissing-NG-adjustment-kissing again".

"Cut! That was perfect! The emotion, the dialogue, the pacing, the visuals—everything was spot on! That's a wrap!"

Lin Yufen finally put down the camera on his shoulder with satisfaction, a bright smile of relief and accomplishment on his face, and announced loudly.

Gu Man stood beside her, watching the final frame on the monitor, nodding with satisfaction, his eyes filled with admiration that she was a promising young woman.

Unlike the visibly awkward and polite atmosphere before the trip, which even had some minor friction, the afternoon of high-intensity, high-density "arduous" shooting had been much more pleasant.

The two people in front of the camera seem to have finally broken through a certain threshold in terms of their liking and tacit understanding, resulting in a qualitative leap.

In the lens,
Two good-looking children snuggled together.

Anyone who sees the two embracing at this moment would genuinely feel that they are a sweet couple deeply in love, bubbling with happiness.

The sense of dependence that naturally arises from intimate contact almost overflows from the image, making it undeniably real.

The only drawback is...

What could even be described as a "battle-damaged" beauty was that both of their lips looked exceptionally red and luscious, glossy and slightly swollen.

"Alright! This afternoon's filming has come to a successful end! Everyone, thank you for your hard work. Let's quickly pack up the equipment and the location, and get ready to go home and rest!"

Lin Yufen was in a great mood, her voice light and satisfied.

"Oh! Thank you for your hard work, Director Lin! Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Nai! Thank you for your hard work, Weiwei! Thank you for your hard work, screenwriter Man!"

The staff cheered with relief, quickly packing up the equipment while smiling and thanking the main creators for their hard work.

The entire set was filled with a relaxed and joyful atmosphere, as if someone had just finished their task of slacking off.

"Erxi, wake up! Let's go, let's go back."

As Zhou Ye watched Gu Qing and Jing Tian walk out of the office hand in hand, he quickly reached out and nudged Zhang Jingyi, who was pretending to be asleep with her face covered by a script on the sofa next to him.

Lin Yufen smiled and walked towards the two main characters, saying, "Xiao Nai, Weiwei, are you hungry? I know a good restaurant nearby."
The environment is quiet and the dishes are exquisite. Shall we go out for dinner together?

Consider this a celebration of today's successful filming, and also a treat for everyone.

"I...I'll listen to the expert."

Jing Tian almost without hesitation hugged Gu Qing's arm even tighter, as if it were her own personal pillow.

She felt as if she had contracted a strange condition called "skin craving disorder," and was unusually attached to the feeling of being close to Gu Qingshi.

His clean, refreshing scent and reassuring warmth made her feel incredibly comfortable and captivated, and she couldn't help but want to stay close to him all the time.

Gu Qing felt the pressure from her arm and the soft touch on her side. Her body stiffened for a moment, but she quickly relaxed.

He turned his gaze to Zhou Ye, who was walking over, and Zhang Jingyi, who was still looking down, and asked naturally, "Jingyi, Xiaoye, how about you? Are you hungry?"

"I'm starving! Senior, I feel like I could eat a whole cow right now!"

Zhou Ye immediately raised his hand and responded lively, even exaggeratedly rubbing his flat stomach.

"I...I'm fine with anything."

Zhang Jingyi lowered her head.

She can't even eat a blade of grass now.

"Okay! It's settled then! I'll go get the big van, let's set off together!"

Lin Yufen made the decision and went to arrange the vehicles with a smile on his face.

The group packed up all their equipment and took the elevator downstairs.

Lin Yu walked straight to the seven-seater van used for transporting equipment and personnel. It was spacious enough to comfortably seat all six of them.

The front seats remained Lin Yufen's driver's seat and Gu Man's exclusive passenger seat.

"Let's go."

Gu Qing walked naturally to the car, reached out and opened the back door, gesturing for Jing Tian and the others to get in.

"Xiao Nai, you go up first."

Jing Tian, ​​unusually, took the initiative to speak up and let him go first.

"Isn't it the same who goes first and who goes later?"

Gu Qing felt a little strange, but still bent down as instructed and took the lead in sitting in the innermost seat in the back row.

Subsequently,

Jing Tian gracefully got into the car, but instead of sitting in the middle seat, she sat down right next to Gu Qing.

That wasn't all. Her slender, fair hand then naturally and quietly slipped into Gu Qing's hand, which was resting on his lap, and their fingers gently intertwined.

After doing all this,
She looked up and gave her two junior sisters, who were still standing outside the car, a bright smile: "Erxi, Yiran, don't just stand there, come on up."

"Erxi, you...you go first."

Zhou Ye swallowed hard, feeling his throat go dry.

She cautiously poked Zhang Jingyi's shoulder with her finger, her voice much softer, clearly startled.

As a thoughtful girl, she understood all too well the hidden meaning behind Senior Sister Jingtian's series of actions.

Clearly, this is a woman's possessiveness at play.

"Oh…"

Xiao Zhang was emotionless, like a puppet on a string. He boarded the bus with slightly stiff movements, chose the middle seat, and tried to shrink his body as much as possible to minimize his presence.

Zhou Ye secretly breathed a sigh of relief, quickly climbed into the car last, and slammed the door shut with a "bang".

The vehicle drove smoothly through the evening traffic.

In the front row, Lin Yufen and Gu Man were in high spirits, chatting and laughing about the fun things that happened during the day's filming and their expectations for the upcoming scenes. The atmosphere in the first half of the carriage was harmonious.

The back row, however, fell into an eerie "quiet".

Zhang Jingyi kept her head down the whole time, as if she wanted to stare a flower out of the tip of her shoe.

Zhou Ye sat upright, his eyes fixed on his nose, his mind seemingly indifferent, but his lively eyes kept his peripheral vision wandering uncontrollably and cautiously from side to side.

"Don't make trouble."

Gu Qing was looking down at his phone screen, but the fine hairs on the side of his cheeks keenly sensed the warm breath coming from the person next to him, who was getting closer.

Without looking up, he simply stretched out his free hand and precisely pressed it against Jing Tian's forehead as she leaned in, gently pushing her head back.

"What did I do wrong..."

Jing Tian pouted her slightly swollen, rosy lips, looking a little aggrieved after being "rejected," and whispered coquettishly.

"Why are you standing so close if you're not making a scene?"

Gu Qing continued looking at her phone.

"I just wanted to see you."

Jing Tian spoke with righteous indignation, and once again stubbornly endured the ordeal.

This time, she simply rested her chin gently on Gu Qing's shoulder, her beautiful phoenix eyes wide open.
At extremely close range, he observed Gu Qing's impeccable profile without any hesitation or reservation.

The closer I looked, the stronger the sense of amazement became.

Delicate and soft facial features, a high and straight nose, thick and slightly curled eyelashes...

How come I never noticed how good-looking he is before?
It's as if every part of it perfectly matches her aesthetic sense.

As she looked at him, she couldn't help but reveal her two adorable little bunny teeth, gently biting her full lower lip and letting out a sweet, innocent laugh, "Master, you're so handsome."

After all,

As if driven by some kind of instinct, she quickly leaned forward and gave Gu Qing a quick kiss on his beautifully sculpted profile.

"you……"

Gu Qing finally put down his phone helplessly, turned to look at her, and lowered his voice to remind her, "Haven't you kissed enough this afternoon?"
"And there were people watching from inside the car..."

"I can't get enough of kissing you~"

Jing Tian answered crisply and directly, "Besides, who's going to watch? Nobody's going to watch!"

Zhang Jingyi: "I'm not a human, I'm a cow."

Zhou Ye: "Then what am I? A third wheel?"

In all fairness,

Gu Qing had at least acted in a few idol dramas with substantial romantic storylines. Although she wasn't exactly an expert, she had gained some experience and resilience in terms of character detachment and emotional control.

He can generally distinguish between what's on and off screen.

However, Jing Tian presents a completely different picture.

She showed no signs of wanting to leave the role of "Bei Weiwei" or her "relationship" with "Xiao Nai".

That's understandable.
This was the first time in all her years in the industry that she had ever filmed such a passionate and lengthy kissing scene.
It was also the first time I had truly experienced a romantic love story that required my complete immersion.

Getting into character? Getting out of character?
At this moment, Da Tian Tian probably couldn't tell the difference herself, or rather, subconsciously she didn't want to.

Who cares?
Immersed in such a beautiful and thrilling feeling of love, does it even matter whether it's a play or reality?

……

The group finally arrived at the quiet, upscale restaurant that Lin Yu had booked.

She had made a phone call in advance from the car and booked a private room with excellent privacy.

In addition, Gu Qing and Jing Tian were fully equipped with masks and hats, and after getting off the car, they quickly and discreetly entered the private room without attracting anyone's attention or causing any disturbance.

Upon entering the spacious and elegant private room, everyone took their seats.

As the host, Lin Yufen picked up the menu first, smiled at Gu Qing, and joked, "Xiao Nai, how about it? Today is a big day, a good start, let's have some drinks to celebrate?"

"Director, have you forgotten? I don't drink alcohol."

Gu Qing shook her head.

"Oh yeah, yeah! Look at my memory!"

Lin Yufen suddenly realized, tapped his temple with his finger, and said with a good-natured teasing smile, "Our A-Gu is a well-known 'good boy' in the industry. He doesn't smoke or drink, and his lifestyle is as healthy as an old man's."

She paused, then asked with a hint of curiosity, "But speaking of which, in this industry, if you don't smoke or drink, don't you find it troublesome or inconvenient to socialize and socialize?"
In many situations, this is how you break the ice.

"What's the problem?"

Before Gu Qing could answer,
Jing Tian immediately spoke up in defense, like a mother protecting her child, her tone clearly showing disapproval.

"Director, it's so great that the great master doesn't smoke or drink!"

I always feel clean and fresh, and smell wonderful!

Why should I follow the example of those smoky, alcohol-smelling 'stinky men'? I prefer guys who don't smoke or drink!

She said it seriously.

Her ideal boyfriend must not smoke, not drink, and have a regular lifestyle.

Of course, the most important criterion is that he has to be 'handsome'.

"Tsk tsk, I knew that even if you didn't say it."

Lin Yu winked mischievously at Jing Tian and said with a grin, "Look how engrossed you were in kissing him this afternoon, it was like you wanted to devour Xiao Nai whole!"

Most of the NGs are caused by you being too 'excited,' forgetting your lines, or overdoing your actions.

"me…"

Jing Tian's pretty face instantly turned bright red after being spoken to, and her previously confident demeanor instantly deflated. Her voice grew softer and softer until it almost became a mutter.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but laugh, and the atmosphere became relaxed and harmonious.

One by one, everyone ordered some dishes, and the waiter quietly recorded them and then withdrew.

"Thank you."

Gu Qing took the menu from Jing Tian and glanced at it when the screen of her phone on the table suddenly lit up, accompanied by a soothing vibration.

He handed the menu to Zhang Jingyi, who had been quiet the whole time, and said, "Jingyi, you and Xiaoye take another look and order whatever you like. Don't be shy, the director is treating us today."

immediately,

He picked up his phone, glanced at the caller ID on the screen, and was slightly taken aback, a look of surprise flashing across his face.

On the screen, two words of note were clearly displayed—

"Brother Chao."

Brother Chao?

Why did he suddenly video call me?
Isn't he filming a movie with... his senior sister?

A hint of doubt crossed Gu Qing's mind, but after adjusting her phone, she still clicked to answer.

"Little brother!!"

……

……

(P.S.: My darlings, the update time has been adjusted to after midnight. I was rushing to write before, so this way I can write more easily and get some rest.)
