I suggest you investigate; this person doesn't seem to be a first-time reborn individual.

In a rented studio at a film and television base in Jiangning.

Ye Li squatted behind the monitor, her eyes fixed on the center of the set as if she had been acupunctured.

In the center of the studio stood a male actor, about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, over six feet tall, wearing a white shirt, listening to the director explain the scene. Sunlight streamed in through the window, casting a soft glow on his sharply defined face.

Ye Li rested her chin on her hand, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously turned up.

So handsome.

The director yelled "Action!" and the male actor turned around, his face fully exposed to the lights.

With sword-like eyebrows, bright eyes, a high nose bridge, and slightly pursed thin lips, he exudes a melancholic air and seems to have a story to tell.

Ye Li felt her heart skip a beat.

"Action!"

The male actor began reciting his lines, his voice deep and magnetic, each word feeling like it was treading on her heart.

Ye Li clutched her chest, feeling like she was about to die.

Just then, a hand reached out and patted her on the shoulder.

Ye Li was startled. She turned around and saw Lin Ran standing behind her, staring at her expressionlessly.

"Boss, what brings you here?"

Lin Ran looked at her like she was an idiot: "...Nonsense, don't I have scenes to film later? If I don't come, will you film them for me?"

"Oh right..." Ye Li slapped her forehead, looking as if she had just realized something.

Lin Ran frowned slightly; this girl was clearly not in a good mood today.

He was about to ask what had happened, but the film crew had already started shooting the second take. The male actor changed his angle, and the sunlight shone on the other side of his face, revealing that he still had that captivating face.

Ye Li's gaze unconsciously drifted over and stared intently at the male actor.

She suddenly spoke up: "Boss."

"Um?"

She lowered her voice, her eyes still fixed on the film set: "That actor is so handsome!"

"What should I do if my heart is fluttering?" She clutched her chest. "I think I'm in love."

Lin Ran followed her gaze and raised an eyebrow.

When Lin Feng came last time, Ye Li had a crush on him, and this time, with a different male actor, the symptoms were exactly the same.

Lin Ran turned and glanced at her: "When you like a man, you can't just look at his appearance."

Ye Li nodded, her face serious: "I know."

Lin Ran: "You also need to look at your appearance."

Ye Li: "..."

She turned her head and stared at Lin Ran for three seconds.

"Alright, boss," she turned back expressionlessly, "you should rest now and stop talking."

Lin Ran chuckled: "Do you have a mirror? I'm going to the supermarket to buy some food, do you want me to bring you one?"

Ye Li didn't turn her head: "No need, thank you."

Lin Ran nodded: "That's true, pee saves money."

Ye Li suddenly turned her head.

"Boss, what kind of person are you...?"

She took a deep breath, swallowed the rest of her sentence, and after a long pause, managed to stammer out, "Never mind, don't lick your lips tonight, or I'm worried you'll die in the house tomorrow."

Lin Ran ignored her and turned to leave.

……

Twenty minutes later, Lin Ran came in from outside, carrying a large bag of food.

Ye Li crouched behind the monitor, staring at the male actor's back as he packed his things, her eyes glued to him.

"Still not enough?"

Ye Li snapped out of her daze and cleared her throat: "Boss, I'm just studying his acting techniques."

"Oh," Lin Ran nodded, "So what did you figure out?"

"His Adam's apple moves when he drinks water."

Lin Ran was silent for two seconds: "You're such a clever little devil."

Ye Li blushed and was about to retort when she suddenly remembered something and took out her phone.

"By the way, boss, I also found his Momo account."

She handed me her phone; the screen displayed a profile on Momo.

Lin Ran took it, scrolled through his posts, and frowned deeply.

Isn't this the guy with the six-pack abs that Ding Facai saw on social media before?

His personal social media feed is filled with photos of his abs and suggestive captions; he's clearly not a good person.

"and then?"

Ye Li was a little embarrassed: "And then... I didn't know how to contact him."

Lin Ran looked at her: "How do you want to contact me?"

Ye Li hesitated for a moment, then said, "We're just going to chat for a bit, get to know each other..."

Before he could finish speaking, a stagehand ran over and called out, "Mr. Lin, it's your turn to get your makeup done!"

Lin Ran stood up.

Given that the client was a big spender, the makeup artist was very responsible and waited early on.

It was supposed to be makeup, but it was really just to cover up the distinct black and white dividing line on his face. After all, he would be filming a scene later, and it wouldn't be appropriate for him to have a two-toned face.

He had barely sat down when Ye Li ran over with his phone.

"Boss, Mrs. Huang called you."

"Could you answer the phone for me? Just tell them I'm not available to take the call right now."

"oh."

Three minutes later, Ye Li hung up the phone, her expression somewhat subtle.

"Boss, Mrs. Huang said she'll be here soon."

Lin Ran was taken aback: "What's she doing here?"

"I said I'd treat you to a welcome-back dinner, and I even brought some food."

Lin Ran's expression visibly froze.

A welcome dinner?

Bringing lunch?

After the last meal, Lin Ran's burps smelled like laundry detergent for the next three days. Is he bringing food again?

Ye Li looked at him: "Boss? Why do you look a little pale?"

Lin Ran took a deep breath: "It's okay, it's just foundation."

He paused for a moment, then added, "Also, tell her I'm not hungry, so don't let her come yet."

Ye Li looked at him suspiciously, said a few words into her phone, and then hung up.

She said she was already at the door.

Lin Ran: "..."

After a moment of silence, Lin Ran suddenly looked at her and said, "By the way, Ye Li, didn't you say you wanted that actor's phone number? How about I get it for you?"

Ye Li was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up instantly, and she said with a look of surprise, "Really? Boss, you're really that kind?"

"But you have to agree to one condition."

Ye Li curled her lip: "Tch, I knew it. What conditions?"

"When Huang Lingyue arrives later, you'll act out a scene with me, eating all the food she brought, okay?"

Ye Li was taken aback: "It's that simple?"

"It's that simple."

Ye Li looked incredulous. Could her boss really be so kind? Not only did he help her get her crush's phone number, but he also treated her to dinner?

"Boss, I've eaten, so what are you going to eat?"

"I'll eat this." Lin Ran pointed to the plastic bag at his feet.

Ye Li glanced at the large bag of food Lin Ran had bought from the supermarket: bread, instant noodles, sausages, bottled water...

He eats dry bread himself, leaving the good stuff for his employees?

Could it be that the dog boss has really changed his ways today?

She looked at Lin Ran suspiciously, trying to find some trace of conspiracy on his face.

But Lin Ran's face, covered in foundation, showed no expression whatsoever.

"...Okay," she finally nodded, "I'll give it a try."

Lin Ran's lips curled into a smile.
