Zhou Xun recognized the actor who later starred in many hit dramas and was known as the "Poet Immortal" and "Young Master Fan".

Zhang Ruoyun walked over and greeted Zhou Xun with a smile, "I've been watching from the sidelines for a long time. This is the first time I've ever seen Director Li get beaten up like this."

"It's alright."

"That's what you call 'not bad'? Did you practice your positioning just now?"

"I studied under a master for a few years," Zhou Xun replied casually.

"No wonder." Zhang Ruoyun nodded thoughtfully. "I noticed that when you were defending just now, you kept your center of gravity very low and your retreat was very deliberate; it wasn't just random dodging."

Zhou Xun glanced at him. On set, not many people could see the intricacies of the situation.

So Zhou Xun asked, "You have some knowledge of martial arts?"

"I wouldn't call it research, I just practiced a little bit while filming before." Zhang Ruoyun smiled at Zhou Xun, "However, I have a problem: when I see someone who is a professional, I can't help but ask them for advice."

"So, could you spar with me? I won't take up much of your time. In exchange, I can treat you to dinner."

"Why do you want to learn?" Zhou Xun asked in return.

"Hmm..." Zhang Ruoyun pondered for a moment, then smiled and said, "Actually, you were really cool when you beat Director Li just now. I want to be cool in my next movie too."

"Haha." Zhou Xun laughed. Sure enough, guys still like to show off.

"Okay, sure," Zhou Xun readily agreed.

Zhang Ruoyun's eyes lit up: "That's great! Can I add you on WeChat?"

"Okay." Zhou Xun handed the QR code to Zhang Ruoyun.

"Hey bro, can I add a note for you?"

"Zhou Xun, who plays Zhuo Yun in 'Green Fox Hill'."

"What a coincidence!" Zhang Ruoyun extended her hand and shook hands with Zhou Xun. "My name is Zhang Ruoyun, and I play Liu Zigu. We have some scenes together later."

"Really? I just arrived, and I haven't really looked at the script yet."

"If there's nothing else, let's rehearse more often."

"it is good."

"Hey bro," Zhang Ruoyun looked at Zhou Xun's WeChat profile picture and asked with a smile, "Is that your cat in the photo?"

"Yes, her name is [Jie Jie Jie]."

Zhou Xun turned to look at the stool, but the white ball of fur that had been lying on it was gone.

He was so busy talking to Zhang Ruoyun that he didn't even notice when [JieJieJie] slipped away.

Knowing his lazy cat as he does, he would never move unless necessary, and would lie in the sun all day long.

But now it's gone, unless...

"What's wrong?" Zhang Ruoyun noticed his expression and followed his gaze. "The cat is gone?"

"Um."

"Don't worry, maybe it's just tired of lying down and went off to play. The film crew's place is so small, we're sure we can find it."

Zhang Ruoyun put away her phone. "I'll help you look for it."

"Hmm." Zhou Xun frowned and looked around the stool but couldn't see the cat.

Fortunately, he found a row of small plum blossom footprints on the ground. Zhou Xun breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that she hadn't been carried away by someone, but that [Jie Jie Jie] had run away on her own.

Zhou Xun stood up and followed the footprints forward.

I don't know if the ground has become clean or if someone else took the cat, but the paw prints on the ground have disappeared.

"Brother Zhou Xun, what are you looking for?"

A martial arts performer passed by and saw Zhou Xun seemingly looking for something, so he asked him.

"My cat."

"Pure white?"

"Hmm." Zhou Xun looked up at him. "Did you see it?"

The stuntman nodded. "It seems like he was carried away by a girl with her hair in a bun, but I didn't get a good look at her face."

"Which direction did they go?"

Wu Xing pointed to the west, "It looks like the direction of the dressing room."

"Okay, thank you."

Zhou Xun thanked him and strode off in that direction. Zhang Ruoyun, hearing the commotion, followed him.

"A lead?"

"Someone saw a girl with her hair in a bun take the cat away."

"The girl with her hair in a bun also likes cats."

Zhang Ruoyun thought for a moment, and he seemed to know who had taken him away, but before he could speak, Zhou Xun had already turned the corner.

Zhou Xun turned the corner, stopped, and breathed a sigh of relief.

In the corridor of the dressing room, Chen Yao was sitting on the steps, holding [Jie Jie Jie] in her arms.

"Where did this cat come from on set?" Chen Yao gently scratched the cat's chin with one hand. "How come I didn't see it before?"

"Did you run in from outside the film set?"

"Meow meow." Jie Jie meowed, rubbing her little head against her little chest.

Zhou Xun was speechless and facepalmed at the sight.

"What a lecherous cat."

Chen Yao was talking to the cat with her head down, completely unaware that someone was approaching.

"Are you hungry? Doesn't your owner feed you? Look how thin you are—"

Zhou Xun stopped behind her. "You're almost a ball, yet you're still thin? Only this little girl could say something like that."

So he spoke:

"It's not hungry."

Startled by the sudden sound, Chen Yao's shoulders trembled, and he turned around sharply, meeting Zhou Xun's condescending gaze.

The dog in my arms meowed in dissatisfaction, showing no intention of jumping down.

"Is this your cat?"

Chen Yao snapped out of his daze and asked.

Zhou Xun smiled and nodded.

"Then call it and see if it answers you," Chen Yao said, mustering her courage.

"[JieJieJie] Come here."

The white cat looked up at Chen Yao, then reluctantly jumped off her and returned to Zhou Xun's embrace.

"I'm sorry. I didn't know this was your cat."

Seeing this, Chen Yao stood up from the steps, clasped her two small hands together in front of her, and quickly explained:

"I saw it wandering around over there and thought it had run in from outside, so I..."

"It's alright," Zhou Xun said. "It didn't scratch you, that's good."

"No, no," Chen Yao quickly waved her hand, her tone now filled with excitement, "I'm super well-behaved! I kept rubbing against you..."

Towards the end, she realized she was revealing her "cat lover" side again, so she quickly tried to tone it down, but couldn't help adding:

"And it smells so good and makes my skin so soft! What shower gel do you use?"

"I just bought it randomly at the pet store."

"That must mean this cat has a good constitution," Chen Yao said confidently, his eyes still glued to [Jie Jie Jie].

Zhou Xun nodded. He did have a good foundation, and he liked those who didn't have a prominent background.

Footsteps sounded behind him, and Zhang Ruoyun slowly walked over.

He glanced at Chen Yao, then at the cat in Zhou Xun's arms, and gave him a "I knew it" look.

He looked at Zhou Xun and said, "Don't mind her, she has a nickname on set, 'Cat Trafficker'."

I can't resist cats. Last time I was on the set of a movie next door, I almost took their prop cat back to my hotel.

"That was just a prop! It wasn't real!" Chen Yao retorted, unconvinced. "Besides, that cat was so realistic that I thought it was real when I hugged it."

"You'd even hug a fake cat? How outrageous do you think that is?" Zhang Ruoyun said expressionlessly.

Chen Yao couldn't refute Zhang Ruoyun's words and pouted angrily.

"But what are you doing here?" Chen Yao asked. "Weren't you training?"

"Help him find his cat!"

"Do you know him?"

"We just met. Let me introduce you." Zhang Ruoyun pointed to Zhou Xun, "His name is Zhou Xun. He just joined the crew today and plays Zhuo Yun."

"By the way, just between you and me, he just beat Director Li."

Chen Yao's mouth was open in an "O" shape.
