Huayu: This top star doesn't play by the rules.

Having just finished filming a chase scene at the harbor, Chen Chao was lounging on a chair in the courtyard, resting. Although this amount of exercise wasn't even a warm-up for him, it certainly wouldn't be enough for others.

He was just about to unscrew the iced cola that Ji Ran had handed him when a hand suddenly reached out and snatched it from the unsuspecting Chen Chao's hand.

"Thanks, Ah Chao, I was so thirsty." Deng Chao twisted open the ice-cold Coke, tilted his head back and took a big gulp, then let out a satisfying burp. "Do you think Director Han did this on purpose? After running around so many times, I feel like my old bones are about to fall apart."

"Brother Chao, you're only in your thirties, you're far from being an old man." Rolling his eyes, Chen Chao took another bottle of Coke from Ji Ran, who was suppressing a laugh. "I remember when you were tearing name tags on 'Running Man,' you ran half a block without even breaking a sweat."

"How can that be the same?" Speechless after being taken aback by Chen Chao's words, Deng Chao, somewhat embarrassed and angry, reached out to ruffle his hair. "Hey, I've noticed now, you're getting bolder and bolder in talking back to me, aren't you? I'll teach you a lesson!"

"Playing is playing, joking is joking, but don't touch my hair, Chao-ge. The makeup artist spent half an hour doing my hair this morning, and you messed it up. Be careful, or the makeup artist and the others will come after you." With a flip, Chen Chao successfully dodged Deng Chao's sudden attack, and then reached out to fix his hair.

Just as the two were engaged in another playful competition, tugging at each other's hair, they suddenly heard the sound of suitcase wheels rolling at the courtyard gate, accompanied by a clear female voice, "Hello, I'd like to ask if Dong Zijian lives here?"

Upon hearing this sound, Chen Chao and Deng Chao stopped their playful fight, and all the actors who were resting in the courtyard subconsciously looked towards the door.

A girl with long hair and a bright smile stood at the doorway, wearing a beige trench coat. She was holding a large thermos in one hand and dragging a suitcase in the other.

The moment Dong Zijian saw the girl, his eyes lit up. He practically ran over to her, asking, "Why are you here so early? Weren't you supposed to be here the day after tomorrow?"

"I wanted to give you a surprise." Standing on tiptoe, the girl reached out to tidy his slightly messy hair, then naturally took his arm. "And this time I also brought you a special soup that Mom prepared especially for you."

Seeing the two of them so oblivious to everyone else, Deng Chao couldn't help but let out a loud whistle and exclaim, "Wow, what a display of affection! We're all still here!"

Nodding in agreement, Zhang Benyu added seriously, "Exactly, exactly. Consider the feelings of those of us whose families aren't around."

Listening to the back-and-forth conversation between the two, Dong Zijian couldn't help but blush slightly. He scratched his head sheepishly and pulled the girl to the front of the crowd. "Let me introduce you all, this is my girlfriend—Sun Yi."

"Hello everyone, I'm Sun Yi. I'm so grateful for your help with Zijian these past few days," Sun Yi greeted everyone with a smile, her voice gentle and pleasant.

Looking at Sun Yi in front of him, Chen Chao was suddenly stunned. It wasn't because Sun Yi was particularly stunning, but because her face looked so familiar.

They look somewhat similar to a certain "wall-scraping girl" and a "talkative girl." If the three of them stood together, some people might believe they were triplets.

"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?" Noticing Chen Chao's staring gaze, Sun Yi touched her face somewhat embarrassedly, while Dong Zijian, standing next to her, also cast a questioning look at her.

"Ah, no, no." Hearing Sun Yi's words, Chen Chao finally realized what she meant, quickly looked away, and smiled awkwardly. "I just thought you looked a lot like two of my friends, so I was a little stunned just now. Sorry."

"Oh? Really?" Sun Yi blinked curiously. "How similar are they?"

"Hmm... how should I put it?" Chen Chao stroked his chin, pretending to think seriously for a moment, then changed the subject, "But if you look closely, they are still different, each with its own beauty."

"Now that you mention it, I'm even more eager to meet them." Sun Yi smiled even more broadly, and Dong Zijian nodded in agreement, "Yeah, when will you have the chance to introduce us?"

Facing the gazes of the two, Chen Chao's eyes darted around, and an idea suddenly popped into his mind. "Ahem, Brother Zijian, it's rare for your wife to come visit the set, shall I take a picture of you two together? It'll be a good souvenir."

"Okay." Having probably guessed what Chen Chao was planning to do, Sun Yi smiled and nodded, and generously reached out to take Dong Zijian's arm.

"One, two, three, cheese!" Seeing that Sun Yi agreed, Chen Chao immediately took out his phone and pointed it at the two of them.

"Cheese!" Dong Zijian and Sun Yi both smiled as they looked at the camera.

With a click, the photo was taken. In the photo, Dong Zijian's smile was somewhat shy, while Sun Yi, with her head resting on his shoulder, had eyes full of undisguised happiness.

Chen Chao opened WeChat, first sending a picture to Dong Zijian, then opening his private chat with Li Lin and sending the photo there.

At the same time, she also cheekily added a caption: "[Sister Qin, come quick! Big discovery! I found your long-lost sister on set! The three of you together could form a triplets girl group and debut!]"

After sending the photo to Li Lin, Chen Chao sent it to Li Yitong, adding a teasing caption: "Yitong, come look! You've found another sister! Now your family is finally reunited! They look so alike, I almost thought you sneaked over to visit the set at first glance."

Less than two seconds after the message was sent, Li Qin replied, first with an angry emoji, followed by the text: "Chen Chao! Are you bored?! Playing jokes on me again!"

Seeing Li Qin's message, Chen Chao couldn't help but laugh out loud. Just as he was about to reply, Li Yitong's message popped up. Unlike Li Qin, who only used text, she sent a long voice message.

"Chen Chao, you're dead! I'm going to write your phone number on the wall of the men's restroom—no, this time I'm going to write it on the wall of the women's restroom! You'll never be able to clear your name even if you jump into the Yellow River! And..."

Her voice was crisp and bright, with a touch of endearing exasperation. Just by listening to her voice, Chen Chao could almost picture her gesticulating wildly on the other end of the phone.
