Huayu: Nobody understands top celebrities better than me.

The four of them were so engrossed in watching that two hours passed in the blink of an eye.

It was already midnight.

"Not bad, no wonder it's a big project." Xu Huikang praised readily.

Although they both work in the entertainment industry, they don't have the problem of being jealous of each other among intellectuals; at least, even if they were, they wouldn't show it.

Hu Ge, sitting to the side, seemed somewhat puzzled. He thought Lin Yu's acting in the drama was just average, not nearly as good as the performance he had given Chen Yao a few days ago.

Chen Yao, who was standing to the side, remained silent for a moment, then tilted her head and said, "Why do I feel like... the second and fourth male leads in this drama are all better looking than the male lead?"

Upon hearing this, Hu Ge and Xu Huikang exchanged a glance, and then a smile appeared on their lips.

Xu Huikang then asked with a mocking expression, "So, who do you think is the most handsome among them?"

"Of course it's Teacher Lin... Yu..." Her tone gradually lowered, clearly understanding the teasing in Xu Huikang's eyes.

Lin Yu smiled helplessly: "Alright, everyone, the play is over, let's call it a day, we still have to do a group reading tomorrow."

"Tsk, Lin, I'm not trying to be mean, but why do you keep the same routine as a seventy or eighty-year-old?" Xu Huikang complained, somewhat dissatisfied, when Lin Yu didn't respond.

Hearing this, Chen Yao quietly chimed in, "Exactly!"

She spoke very softly, and because of the noise from the TV, neither Hu Ge nor Xu Huikang heard her. Only Lin Yu, who was in front of her, turned his head and glanced at her, but did not say anything.

Chen Yao still remembered a conversation she had a few days ago.

The two chatted until after 11 p.m., when Chen Yao had to go and do something else. After five or six minutes, when she came back and sent a message to Lin Yu, there was no response from him.

It made her somewhat depressed at the time!

Is chatting with her this hypnotic? I fell asleep the moment I wasn't looking!

She's somewhat well-known at the Beijing Film Academy, and occasionally when she goes out, she encounters quite a few people trying to get her contact information.

How come I feel that Lin Yu's charm is not as great as that of an adult Border Collie?

At least that time Lin Yu saw the Border Collie, he left her there to pet the dog.

However, she obviously couldn't say those words; that's just her personality, completely unlike the temperament of women from the Sichuan and Chongqing regions.

After quickly cleaning up the mess they had created, the group left the room at Lin Yu's polite request.

It's getting late, and if we stay any longer, who knows what kind of four-person sex scandal might break out in the "Whirlwind Eleven" crew tomorrow.

These days, the media is notoriously shameless.

As everyone left, Lin Yu hadn't even had a moment to rest when his phone started vibrating.

When the notification sound rang, Lin Yu picked up his phone casually, and the caller was exactly as he expected.

"Hey, what's wrong, Dilraba?" Lin Yu asked calmly.

On the other end of the video call, Dilraba was wearing a long silk nightgown, and her mature and sophisticated aura was completely ruined by herself after the video call connected.

"Hi, hi, can you see me?! 'Gu Jian' is out! I just finished watching it, have you seen it yet?" Dilraba's voice was excited, her words coming out like a machine gun.

Lin Yu nodded: "Director Xu and Hu Ge from the crew just came over. We watched it together with other actors from the other crews."

Dilraba, unsuspecting, smiled and said, "Have you seen the comments online? Everyone's saying you're more handsome than the male lead and very dashing, but everyone's guessing if you're the villain."

Lin Yu waved his hand: "My character is the main villain in the original game. Even if they don't guess, some people already know."

"Oh? What should we do then? I heard from Sister Mi and the others that if your character stays the same, without any plot twists, it will be hard to gain fans." Dilraba's face showed genuine worry.

She often acted this way in front of Lin Yu, without much of a brain.

"I've discussed this with Director Liang and the others, it's fine." Lin Yu wasn't worried.

Actually, the screenwriter of this show is quite talented. Although some lines are indeed silly, a large part of them are due to the current state of the times.

It's like looking back at popular internet memes from a few years ago.

Lin Yu didn't know how much of the script was due to Jia Ge's efforts.

However, in his opinion, the most successfully adapted character in the script is Ouyang Shaogong.

He was the mastermind behind the scenes.

His appearance aroused suspicion among the audience, but as the plot progressed, this suspicion was gradually smoothed out by time and the story, until finally, he suddenly turned evil.

To put it in a later way...

I thought you were going to play a trick on me, but you weren't. Doesn't that still mean you played a trick on me?!

"Oh~ It's good that you have ideas." Dilraba believed it very quickly; the worry on her face didn't last more than two seconds before it was replaced by a smile.

She knelt on the bed, her phone on the bedside table, a white silk nightgown covering her legs, leaving a lot of bare skin exposed.

Aside from a few specific areas, her skin was remarkably white overall.

"Hey, look at this, look at this! Hahahaha, he said Junior Sister Fuqu is super pretty!"

Reba turned the tablet in her hand upside down and excitedly said to Lin Yu.

As she bent down, the mountains trembled slightly, revealing the mountainside hidden beneath the ground in a mesmerizing U-shaped arc.

Lin Yu quickly refocused his attention and nodded: "What he said is indeed correct."

This drama was Yang Mi's way of getting her exposure, with the aim of making her a familiar face to the audience.

That way, even if she suddenly gets cast as the second or first female lead, there won't be too much criticism.

"Hehe, really? I also think I'm naturally beautiful." Dilraba chuckled and tossed her hair.

"Oh, by the way, I'm going to do some promotional work in a couple of days. Have you received the call yet?" Dilraba asked, her eyes filled with anticipation.

Lin Yu nodded: "I received a group interview offer, but I declined."

"Huh? Why?" The expectation in her eyes instantly turned into frustration, and there was also a hint of resentment.

"I'm a bit busy. You'll probably find out in a couple of days. It's really not appropriate for me to be with Li Yifeng right now. Even if I agree, they probably won't let me go in a couple of days," Lin Yu said calmly.

Dilraba raised an eyebrow and quickly understood what Lin Yu meant.

While she was surfing the internet intensively, she naturally noticed that some of Lin Yu's fans and Li Yifeng's fans were arguing.

At first, she thought it was an isolated incident, but Lin Yu's meaning...

"Did you start those comparisons online? That's not a good idea..." Dilraba hesitated.

Lin Yu shook his head: "These aren't people I brought. They're probably some rivals who have a grudge against Li Yifeng."

Dilraba was taken aback, but then realized what she had heard. She just pursed her lips and didn't ask any more questions.

"Then... can you help me decide what I should wear to the promotional event that day?"

As she spoke, she took out two dresses from the wardrobe and held them up to herself.

"Can't you tell like this? Should I change into it?" Before Lin Yu could speak, she spoke again.

However, as the silk pajamas slowly slipped off her smooth shoulders, Lin Yu's breathing involuntarily became much heavier.

Just as the fabric covering her was about to slip off, she suddenly jumped in front of her phone and playfully left a message:

"Hehe, I'm going to change my clothes. It's your fault for not coming to see me, so I'm not showing them to you."

Tonight is destined to be another sleepless night.
