I want to have a normal campus romance

There was nothing special in the tent except a table, a few chairs, and some filming equipment.

Maybe this is a lounge? But why is there no one here? Isn't this too strange?

Wait, a single man and a single woman, photographic equipment, a separate room, cough cough..., no, no, now a certain Bean Media has already gone in to pick up the soap.

However, compared to these trivial matters, the matter at hand is obviously much more important. After Xia Xiaoyao found that there was no one in the tent, she clenched her fists, and a gleam of light flashed in her eyes. Seeing that she was about to get angry, I quickly spoke first:

"Ahem, my feet really slipped just now."

"You must have planned this! How could it be such a coincidence!"

"I wouldn't have planned it in a place with so many people around, would I? If I really did that, your fans would probably kill me within three days!"

As I spoke, I looked up at Xia Xiaoyao, and my eyes subconsciously looked at her chest. Thinking of the exciting experience just now, I couldn't help swallowing. Her curvy figure combined with her pure dress really had an indescribable temptation.

However, she still caught my little action. She looked at me angrily with a red face while protecting her chest, and said angrily:

“Feels pretty good, doesn’t it?”

"No no no...it doesn't feel good at all!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, I denied it again and again, but unlike what I expected, Xia Xiaoyao seemed to be insulted. Her already flushed cheeks became even redder, her almond eyes were wide open, and her aura was aggressive, like an angry little lion.

You know what... this angry look is really cute. That look has no deterrent effect, but it makes me want to laugh, but the next second I can't laugh anymore. I saw her purse her lips, then raised her foot and stepped hard, and I felt a sharp pain on the back of my foot.

Oh my god! It’s really stepped on!

"what did you just say!"

"I said... it's very good, the experience is great, I want to give it a five-star review! By the way... is there a second half-price discount..."

Wait...what am I talking about?

"Sure enough you planned it!"

"hiss--"

Under the influence of pain, I said all the compliments I could think of, but after I finished, I felt the pain in my feet increase a little bit, as if she was even angrier after hearing what I just said. Not to mention... this girl is really strong! I even felt that my feet were almost numb from being stepped on.

Let's be reasonable! If you say it's not good, you will be criticized. If you say it's good, you will also be criticized. How can this be a multiple-choice question? This is a death sentence!

Someone, come! Anyone! Please save me! If this continues, I will have to say goodbye to my left foot!

It seemed that the sound of our quarrel attracted people, and the curtain of the tent was lifted. When Xia Xiaoyao saw someone coming, she glared at me fiercely and then retracted her foot, as if to tell me that this matter was not over yet.

The moment she loosened her foot, I suddenly felt a sense of survival in my heart, and I couldn't help but feel extremely grateful to this savior who had arrived. Otherwise, in a while, I probably wouldn't be able to feel the existence of my left foot.

"I didn't disturb you, did I?"

I looked up and found that the bald uncle who was dressed in avant-garde and literary clothes yesterday was wearing a director's hat. He lifted the door curtain and walked in. After glancing at Xia Xiaoyao and me, he looked at me again and showed an intriguing smile.

"I thought you two would be very restrained when you get along with each other, but now it seems that you get along well. I was right about you. You are the best actor for this role."

???

How can you tell that we get along well? I was about to say something, but I found that Xia Xiaoyao was smiling faintly, and there was no trace of anger on her face. If I hadn't felt a sharp pain in my left foot, I would have thought that everything just now was just my imagination.

This change of face is too fast!

However, although I had countless complaints in my heart, I couldn't say anything in this situation. After all, in some sense, I took advantage of Xia Xiaoyao, even though it was really just an accident.

"Okay, the equipment is almost ready, we can prepare for filming."

Huh? It's starting now?!

I was a little stunned when I heard the director's words. After all, I just got here and I don't know what to do. Why do we have to start now? Although I have the habit of skipping the tutorial when playing games, it's not right to do it like this!

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, today is just the preview and cover shoot for the MV. You only need to appear in the cover shoot."

Hearing this, I breathed a sigh of relief. After all, if this was truly the shooting of an MV, any crew member present would be more experienced than me. If we were to go in unprepared and face it head on, I'm afraid it would be difficult to end it.

Just when I thought that the actors needed to change their clothes or put on makeup before filming, the director said that he had no preparation and that he wanted this kind of realism.

Although I suspected that the director had cut the budget, the other crew members seemed to be used to it and did not show any surprise. So I simply tidied up my appearance and made sure there was nothing wrong with it, and then the director announced that the filming would officially begin.

Of course, it was called shooting, but basically Xia Xiaoyao was there taking the preview pictures, and I was waiting here. After all, I only needed to appear in the cover photo shoot, and for the sake of my privacy, I didn't even need to show my face when taking the photos. And I also understood why I had to shoot on the day I was asked to do so, after all, this difficulty is something that anyone can do.

But I still can't figure out why the male lead chose me. However, things like this can't be figured out just by thinking about it, so I simply put this question aside for the time being and started asking the photographer next to me about some things I need to pay attention to when shooting the cover.

Although slacking off and lying down are my usual style, after all, I have been paid. I can't just take the money and not do anything practical, right?

"Okay, that's great, Xiaoyao, keep feeling this way!"

The director seemed very satisfied with the preview pictures that had just been taken, and because I was a male actor, I was lucky enough to be arranged not far from Xia Xiaoyao and witnessed the whole process.

Although I don't want to admit it, Xia Xiaoyao is indeed very talented. Her every smile and every movement has a soul-stirring feeling. I even understand why some people choose to chase stars for a moment. Of course, it's only a moment. After returning to reality, you will find that stars are just like their literal meaning.

As bright as stars, dazzling yet out of reach. We can admire them, but those who pursue celebrities are somewhat unrealistic.

Dating a celebrity? How is that possible?

"It's your turn! Boy, I hope you can surprise me!"

Just when I was staring at Xia Xiaoyao in a daze, the director suddenly patted me on the shoulder, which brought me back to my senses instantly. After I came to my senses, I found that everyone was looking at me. There was indifference, envy, and jealousy in their eyes. Everyone looked at me differently, and everyone had their own thoughts and ideas.

I even heard some people muttering:

"Tsk, even students can be actors."

"I'm a relative of mine. Is this your first time working here?"

"Can a college student be the leading actor? No, he doesn't have the ability, you know?"

However, I was prepared for this and was not surprised. After all, if it were me, I would also think that the actor who played the male lead in the MV was a college student who was not from the acting department and was pushed by the director through the back door when I heard that he got the job.

"Director, what do I need to do?"

In this case, explanation is useless, the best response is to do your own thing. Thinking of this, I took a deep breath, adjusted my state, and prepared to show my skills during the shooting.

"It's okay. You don't need to do anything deliberately. Just relax and treat Xiaoyao as your girlfriend. Just give her a hug or a kiss."

Uh-huh???

Chapter 5 I’m so stupid, really

I'm so stupid, really. If I had known that Xia Xiaoyao and I were playing a couple in the script, I would never have come. Isn't this just courting death?

At this moment, Xia Xiaoyao and I are sitting on a bench without a backrest. In the sunlight, we are holding each other's hands and facing away from each other. This should be a very beautiful picture.

Of course, if we exclude the male crew members around me who looked at me with hatred, then it was probably like this. Especially after they heard the director's words, the way they looked at me was even more strange! That look made me feel very uncomfortable.

"Xiaoyao, change your mood and don't be so stiff on your face."

"Boy, you two are a couple now, why are you sitting so far away? Get closer! Closer!"

If you get any closer to me, you'll be dead! Look at the people around you, their eyes are about to eat me up!

Listening to the director's constant urging and feeling the piercing gazes around me, I took a deep breath and decided to go all out. I stood up and got close to Xia Xiaoyao, shoulder to shoulder. Xia Xiaoyao seemed to be startled, her body trembled slightly, and even the strength of her grip increased a little.

To be honest, if it were normal, this kind of situation of sitting shoulder to shoulder with a beautiful girl would definitely be a rare enjoyment, but if you were being watched by a bunch of people, then it would not be an enjoyment, it would be a public execution!

I even suspected that if I showed any enjoyment on my face, the lighting technician in front of me would wave his equipment and turn me into "light".

"Hmm... No, it's still a little short of the mark. Aren't you two too nervous?"

Listening to the director's words, I turned my head helplessly, only to see him looking at the photos in the camera, then shook his head in dissatisfaction. Just as he was about to say something else, his cell phone rang. From his expression, it seemed to be quite important, so after telling us that we could take a short break, he quickly left.

What phone call was so important? How could the director be called away with just one phone call?

Although I didn't know who called, thanks to this call, I finally had the opportunity to escape from the strange atmosphere around me.

Xia Xiaoyao and I returned to the tent where we had rested before. I sat down on the chair I had just sat on, feeling the gazes around me disappear, and I let out a long sigh of relief.

I am finally free. Not everyone can be an actor.

As I thought about this, I looked at Xia Xiaoyao who was sitting next to me. I suddenly felt that being a star was not easy. She seemed to feel my gaze and turned her head away. For a moment, our eyes met each other.

She seemed to still be upset about what happened before, but her temper was obviously not as bad as before, at least she didn't stand up and step on my feet. Although she had a bad temper, she was not a bad person at least. She pulled me into the tent before, which was considered to be a relief for me.

After all, I just found out that this tent is actually Xia Xiaoyao's exclusive resting place, and no one else is allowed to enter unless there are special circumstances. No wonder the people in the crew looked at me so strangely when we were filming.

And she is actually quite cute when she is angry, just like a cute and fierce little animal. Her puffy face makes people want to pinch her.

"Why are you staring at me?"

After hearing what Xia Xiaoyao said, I quickly realized that I had been staring at her for too long, but if I was to be honest, this girl would have to repeat her old tricks in the tent again! Thinking of this, I quickly changed the subject and asked the question I had just raised.

"Weren't you in good shape when you were filming just now? Why did you...well, you know when I got here?"

Although I tried my best to be more tactful, my words seemed to have touched her pain point. She suddenly lost her confidence and looked away, as if she was deliberately avoiding my sight. After a long time, she said to me vaguely:

"This is my first time shooting an intimate music video. I don't have much experience. You were so nervous and didn't say a word. It made me... I was also nervous."

How could I be so nervous that I dare not speak? Didn't you see those people behind you? Their eyes... were almost eating me up. If I really talked nonsense, wouldn't they come up and sew my mouth shut?

But compared to these, what I care more about is what Xia Xiaoyao just said -

"Is this your first time shooting a music video like this?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

"Uh, it's nothing. I thought a big star like you would be surrounded by handsome guys. You might have had many boyfriends, so you would be familiar with this kind of thing."

"I...I obviously haven't had a boyfriend yet, don't talk nonsense!"

After hearing what I said, Xia Xiaoyao's face turned slightly red, her eyes opened wide, and even her voice trembled a little, as if she had heard something that was difficult to talk about. But she was surprisingly... naive about matters between men and women?

This was actually my miscalculation. After all, Xia Xiaoyao was so good and had had several boyfriends, which I didn't find strange. So, this was also one of the reasons why I didn't say a word in front of such a big shot in the love field. But now it seems...it turns out that I have been fighting wits and courage with the air?

But it seems that none of this matters anymore, because while I was thinking about my love history and whether I should take the initiative when filming, Xia Xiaoyao saw that I hadn't spoken for a long time, and quickly stood up from the chair, her face slightly flushed, her fists clenched tightly, and she seemed a little angry.

"Ahem, well...I'll go outside and check out the venue."

After I said that, I realized the situation was not good, so I stood up and turned around to run away. I was kidding... Xia Xiaoyao looked like she was determined to fight me for three hundred rounds. If I stayed any longer, wouldn't I be asking for trouble?

"Stand still...yeah!"

But just when I was about to slip away, I heard a sudden scream from behind me, and the sound of various debris falling, which made me pause.

Why does this scene look so familiar? It feels like I've seen it before.

I turned around in surprise, but before I could realize what was happening, I felt a shock on my chest. I didn't react in time and took several steps back. Just as I was trying to keep my balance, my head hit the iron frame beside me. I staggered and fell to the ground, having an intimate contact with the earth.

Damn it, which villain wants to harm me!

If I wasn't in good health and hadn't been exercising regularly under the influence of "Brother Jie", most people would have fallen to the ground like this.

I covered my dizzy head and tried to wake myself up. My first reaction was to see what had hit me. However, after I came to my senses, felt the soft touch on my chest and the faint lavender scent, it seemed unnecessary to look anymore.

At this moment, my whole body trembled, as if I had an electric shock, and I even felt a tingling sensation on my body... After all, this was the first time in several years that I had such close contact with a girl. The refreshing floral fragrance and the body temperature that I could still feel even through the clothes, coupled with Xia Xiaoyao's hot and humid breath constantly stimulated my reason and nerves.

I just raised my hands, but for a moment I didn’t know where to put them. I felt like I was petrified, and it was extremely difficult to even move my body.

This scene was just like a dream. I lowered my hands and pinched my thigh subconsciously. The intense pain made me realize that this was not a dream and also made me regain some sanity. But even so, I still felt dry mouth.

"Eh... that... this..."

Xia Xiaoyao supported her body with her left hand and held her head with the other hand. She seemed a little dazed. She looked at me lying on the ground and the chaos around her. She was a little at a loss. Her eyes were confused and her mouth was slightly open, but she didn't seem to know where to start. She didn't say anything for a long time. I stared at her so hard that even a hint of cherry red appeared on her face and ears.

Having a wonderful encounter with a beautiful girl is probably what every man dreams of, especially when the girl looks shy, which can make many men unable to stop, but——

"Um, Xia...Miss Xia...hand! Hand!"

It would have been better if Xia Xiaoyao didn't put her hands on my chest to support herself. Although I don't want to ruin this beautiful scene, I will almost suffocate if it continues like this.

Although there is an old saying: "If you die under the pomegranate skirt, you will be a romantic ghost", but if I really die for this reason, then my death is too cheap! If the spirits of our ancestors in heaven saw their descendants die like this, I'm afraid they would cry silently, right?

"Oh! I'm sorry! Ah——"

"Hey, wait—Pfft."

Xia Xiaoyao seemed to realize that she had done something wrong, and she withdrew her hand in a panic. I breathed in the air around me greedily, as if I had survived a disaster. But soon I suddenly realized a serious problem. Xia Xiaoyao was still supporting her head with her other hand. If she withdrew her hand, wouldn't that mean -

Before I could remind her, Xia Xiaoyao's body hit my chest again. I felt the soft touch and the elastic feeling on my chest again. For the first time, I felt what it meant to be painful... and happy.

"Oh... Sorry, I just got a call..."

Just when I was thinking about what to say at this time, a familiar voice suddenly sounded at the door. I looked up in surprise, and what came into my sight was a familiar face. Of course, even without looking, I could guess that the person was none other than the director just now.

Why, you always manage to get in when strange things happen!

"Um... well, you guys continue, I won't disturb you, I'm leaving now!"

Although I really wanted to say you can't leave, it was obviously not the time to say that. The most urgent thing was to explain things clearly to the director. Thinking of this, I lifted up Xia Xiaoyao's shoulders and supported her up. After she stood up again, I also successfully got up from the ground.

"Um, are you okay?"
