Chapter 112 From the Bathroom to the Balcony

After watching the night view with Dilraba, Su Liu left the room amidst her resentful gaze and hurriedly went to Mao Xiaotong's place.

Although going at this time will inevitably invite ridicule, the consequences of not going are far more serious.

Don't be fooled by Mao Xiaotong's always quiet and unassuming demeanor. If Su Liu doesn't go tonight, he'll be facing a strange Mao Xiaotong tomorrow with an impeccably sweet smile on her face but a sarcastic and sarcastic tone in her mouth.

It's often said that a man's life is largely lived according to the expectations of others. Su Liu is no exception; his constant travels are all to ensure that others' expectations are not disappointed.

After knocking on the door, Mao Xiaotong had a blank expression, but the corners of her mouth still unconsciously curled up slightly.

"You must be exhausted," she said.

Clearly, this is not a simple expression of concern; a man needs to be quick-witted at this moment.

This is a question that will inevitably lead to a mistake no matter how you respond; you can't just fall into a trap.

In situations like these, actions speak louder than words.

So when Su Liu lay on the bed, panting and nearly exhausted, Mao Xiaotong had a suppressed smile on her face, looking like she had succeeded in her scheme.

"It's clearly not going to work, but you still insist on doing it." She looked at Su Liu with sparkling eyes.

Su Liu thought he had enough experience from the previous encounter, carrying her from the edge of the bed to the bathroom, and then to the balcony. By the end, he was completely exhausted.

Fortunately, Mao Xiaotong is petite and nestled in my arms like a little baby, otherwise I really couldn't handle it.

"I did a great job."

"Yes, yes, yes."

Mao Xiaotong went along with him verbally, but her tone couldn't hide the teasing tone of someone coaxing a child.

The two lingered in the quiet for a while, their breathing gradually evening out. Su Liu pulled her closer to him, and she adjusted herself into a more comfortable position.

"Teacher Yu called me today," Mao Xiaotong said.

"Teacher Yu?" Su Liu didn't react immediately. "Which Teacher Yu?"

"Who else could it be? Yu Zhen."

"Oh, him. What does he want with you?"

"Let me cooperate with the drama's promotion."

"Huh?" Su Liu turned around to face her. "Is it The Return of the Condor Heroes?"

Mao Xiaotong played Guo Fu in Yu Zhen's version of The Return of the Condor Heroes. When she auditioned for "Knives Out" last year, she had to take leave from the production crew.

"Yes, there was no news after filming wrapped up, and now they've suddenly come knocking on our door." Mao Xiaotong rested her head on his arm, her tone revealing a sense of expected indifference.

"That's obvious, you're famous now."

"He also wants to invite me to play the female lead in his next drama."

"Really?" Su Liu asked, somewhat surprised. "What drama?"

"What's it called, 'Joy of Life'? I think it's a novel?"

"Joy of Life?" Su Liu repeated, then confirmed again, "Is it that Joy of Life?"

Mao Xiaotong was taken aback by his reaction, "Are there...that many Joy of Life episodes?"

She took her phone from the bedside table, swiped it open, and handed it to Su Liu. "Look."

The screen displays a news item from March: Hainan Broadcasting and Television Media Group and Yixing Bona jointly acquired the copyright to "Joy of Life", officially announcing that it will be produced by Yu Zhen Studio, with Chen Xiao playing the role of Fan Xian, and is planned as an 80-episode period drama.

Su Liu stared at the news in disbelief and asked, "How far have they progressed?"

Mao Xiaotong chuckled softly, "It's still in the early stages of preparation; there's no script yet."

"Then what is he talking about when he's just making empty promises?"

That's exactly what I meant.

Mao Xiaotong stretched her body, like a nimble kitten, and rolled over to lie on top of Su Liu.

"bring it on."

"What? What's coming?" Su Liu didn't react for a moment.

Before she could finish speaking, Mao Xiaotong had already silently slipped one hand under the thin blanket.

Oh my god, this can't go on!

Time flies, and filming for "Unnatural" is in its final stages.

On this day at the end of April, Chen Zhixi called. The message she conveyed was concise: someone wanted to invite Su Liu to dinner.

"The one you're talking about, my loyal fan?"

"Haha, yeah."

"6

"Alright, we definitely have to give Sister Chen face."

After wrapping up work in the afternoon, Su Liu took off his dusty director's vest and changed his clothes. Since Chen Si, the executive producer, was also there, the two decided to drive to No. 3 on the Bund.

The car stopped downstairs at Huangpu Club, and Su Liu and Chen Si walked into the elevator side by side.

After entering Huangpu Club, the two were led by a slender waitress to a private room.

Upon entering, two people were sitting on the left, one of whom was naturally Chen Zhixi.

The other man had a long, oval face and neat short hair. He had a gentle appearance, but his eyes revealed a shrewdness.

Upon seeing Su Liu enter, both of them stood up simultaneously.

"President Su," Chen Zhixi greeted her with a smile, her gaze immediately falling on Chen Si. "And this is?"

"This is Chen Si, the president of our Fuxing Film & Television," Su Liu introduced, stepping aside.

Chen Simai stepped forward, shook hands with Chen Zhixi, and the two exchanged a few pleasantries.

"Haha, you're all Sister Chen!" Su Liu joked.

As soon as he said that, the atmosphere at the scene immediately relaxed a lot.

At this moment, another man, without waiting for Chen Zhixi to introduce him, hurriedly came forward.

He gripped Su Liu's hands tightly, his voice brimming with undisguised joy, "Teacher Su, the god of deduction, my name is Chen Sichen, and I'm a die-hard fan of yours."

Su Liu wore a polite but stiff smile, inwardly cursing: Damn it, why is this person holding on so tightly? Does he want to become sworn brothers on the spot?

He withdrew his hand without making a sound and replied, "Hello, Mr. Chen."

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Liu's gaze swept over the faces of the group, then he suddenly froze. "Huh? Everyone here today except me has the surname Chen?"

A burst of laughter erupted inside the room, and the previous awkwardness was largely dispelled by this joke.

As everyone took their seats, Chen Zhixi called the waiter to start serving the dishes.

"Sister Chen, what brings you all the way to Shanghai to see me?"

Chen Zhixi turned her head to look at Chen Sichen and gestured, "Sichen, you say it, is it you who wanted me to introduce you to President Su?"

"Professor Su," Chen Sichen straightened up and said sincerely, "I asked President Chen to make the connection, and I would like to ask Professor Su, the number one person in Chinese-language mystery fiction, for a favor."

"Oh? What do you mean?"

"It was about a year ago, when I was filming 'Beijing Love Story' in Bangkok." He then suddenly asked, "I wonder if Professor Su has seen my rudimentary work?"

"Ah... this..."

'

Why ask this out of the blue? It's completely unnecessary! Su Liu cursed inwardly. Of course, he hadn't seen it.

The situation became slightly awkward.
