Xiao Qi: "..."

When the recording of the latest episode of the talent show ended over the weekend, Xie Jianyuan said goodbye to the trainees and went into the dressing room to change clothes.

"Brother Yuan, you smell so good today." The makeup artist, a rather well-dressed boy, immediately noticed something was off about Xie Jianyuan with his keen sense of smell.

You should know that Xie Jianyuan is someone who would never normally wear flashy men's cologne. Even the most understated and elegant kind, he doesn't like that kind of smell. Unlike today, he's gone overboard, as if he wants everyone within a ten-mile radius to smell his scent and then ask, "Who gave this to me?"

The makeup artist thought to herself, but outwardly asked cooperatively, "Who sent you the perfume?"

Xie Jianyuan couldn't help but let the corners of his mouth turn up slightly.

Seeing his appearance, the makeup artist couldn't help but chuckle to herself, and continued to ask, "Girlfriend?"

Xie Jianyuan hadn't had a chance to answer yet.

Xu Chun, who was standing at the door and about to push it open, was so startled that she swayed and almost lost her balance.

The wind is a bit noisy today.

What did they just say? He couldn't quite hear it.

Chapter 30 Werewolves

"Brother Chun, what are you doing standing at the door?"

The sound wasn't particularly loud, but it wasn't quiet either. In any case, Xie Jianyuan and the others in the room heard it and were all slightly taken aback.

Hearing a question from someone beside her, Xu Chun quickly turned around and saw that it was one of Xie Jianyuan's assistants.

He chuckled dryly a few times, "I've come to Xie Jianyuan."

The assistant glanced at the doorknob, then tentatively looked at him, and cautiously asked, "Should I open the door?"

Xu Chun, keeping a straight face and adopting a serious expression, said, "Open it."

The assistant held her breath, unsure where her nervousness came from, and cautiously pushed open the door.

There was nothing unusual behind the door.

Xie Jianyuan sat listlessly on the armrest of the stool, with the makeup artist standing in front of him. He turned his head with a smile and looked over, but it was unclear who his gaze was fixed on.

"What's going on?" The assistant noticed the smile on the makeup artist's face.

"Someone gave Brother Yuan perfume as a gift. I was thinking, who else but a girl would give such a gift? I guessed it was from Brother Yuan's girlfriend."

Xu Chun remained silent, his face expressionless.

He wasn't so ungrateful as to go up to him and say it wasn't a gift from his girlfriend, but from him. Yes, there really are guys who would give something like that. Sorry to disappoint you.

"Don't talk nonsense." The assistant panicked; this kind of thing could get out. "Brother Yuan doesn't have a girlfriend, you can't just say things like that."

After he finished speaking, he glanced around, as if trying to increase the credibility of his words and drag Xu Chun into the mess.

"Ask Brother Chun if you don't believe me."

Xu Chun touched his face, then forced a smile, "It definitely wasn't a gift from my girlfriend."

"Look..." The assistant proudly raised her chin, but before she could speak, Xu Chun added, "I gave it to you."

"..."

After walking out of the backstage corridor, Xie Jianyuan reached out and pressed the elevator button. Xu Chun was still thinking about what had happened in the dressing room earlier, but in the end, she decided to speak first.

"I'm sorry about what happened earlier."

"Why?" Xie Jianyuan tilted his head and glanced at him, raising his eyebrows, looking like he was in a good mood.

Xu Chun sighed, "It was my oversight. I didn't realize that this kind of gift is usually given by girls, which caused you to be misunderstood. In the end, I couldn't help but clarify things for you because it would be bad for you if this kind of rumor got out."

Xie Jianyuan gave a lukewarm "hmm" without making any further comment.

Xu Chun was also unsure of his attitude, and recently she found Xie Jianyuan increasingly unpredictable.

On Friday night, Xu Chun received a call from the director of "Twin Cities," saying that a suitable candidate had been found for the role of Lu Xian. He asked who it was, and the director mentioned a name, causing Xu Chun to pause slightly in surprise.

"Shen Zhu," Xu Chun smiled slightly after realizing what he meant, "I know him very well."

"Yes, filming starts next month, right?"

"The location is Hengdian World Studios, right?"

"I understand, goodbye."

After receiving the news, Xu Chun checked his upcoming schedule. In addition to the talent show he was currently participating in, Su Li had helped him get a role in a currently popular outdoor reality show.

The variety show is called "Searching for the Limits ". The production team found Xu Chun and wanted him to participate. In addition to him, there are several other young artists as guests on this episode.

When they met on the day of filming, Xu Chun first met Xie Jianyuan. Since she knew the cast list in advance, she wasn't too surprised.

Xu Chun met with the other guests at the hotel one by one. Besides him and Xie Jianyuan, there were two men and two women. He recognized one of the men, Wei Jiahe, who was Xie Jianyuan's good friend. The other was a popular young actor who was currently very popular. He was handsome with red lips and white teeth and his name was Fu He.

The two girls were Chu Xi and Bai Lingling, and they were both people they knew.

The next day, when the show officially started filming, the six people stood in their rehearsed positions, and when the director yelled "Action!", they waved to the camera.

"Welcome everyone to Suzhou..." The director began with a lengthy introduction to the local history and culture.

A crowd of curious citizens began to gather around. By this time, the sun had risen, and its golden rays shone brightly on the earth.

Xu Chun heard Chu Xi mutter a complaint in the microphone next to her, then took out sunscreen from her pocket and started applying it to her body and face. When she saw Xu Chun looking at her, she smiled and raised the sunscreen in her hand.

"Want some too?"

Xu Chun was silent for a moment, then said, "Give me some."

There is no such thing as natural beauty in this world. Xu Chun's skin care routine is considered rough and unrefined by industry standards, but she also understands the cultivation that an artist needs, which requires both inner and outer refinement.

The two of them were like members of an underground organization, dividing up the sunscreen with their backs to the camera. Xie Jianyuan watched from the side for a while, until the program director raised the volume, and he finally came to his senses.
