"Little Xie." Xu Chun found Xie Jianyuan, hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to probe tactfully, "Were you frightened just now?"
Xie Jianyuan was slightly taken aback when he saw Xu Chun's uneasy expression.
Is Brother Chun afraid of getting angry?
For some reason, this realization put him in a great mood, but at the same time, a thought vaguely surfaced in his mind: to take advantage of this opportunity to use a scheme to get closer to Xu Chun.
"It's fine."
Seeing Xie Jianyuan's somewhat stiff tone and distant, cold attitude, Xu Chun felt her heart clench involuntarily, and looked at him with unease.
Xie Jianyuan seemed to have no intention of saying anything more to him, and turned to walk away. Xu Chun watched his retreating figure, her expression slightly forlorn.
At that moment, he was immersed in sadness and had no idea why Xie Jianyuan would be angry because of the variety show.
After filming the variety show, the group went to the hotel booked by the production team. Xu Chun couldn't sleep in her room and had something on her mind, so she simply put on her slippers and went out into the hallway.
He paced back and forth in front of Xie Jianyuan's room several times, his hand falling down each time he tried to knock, and then began to pace back and forth in the corridor.
Xie Jianyuan stood at the door, listening to the footsteps gradually approaching, pausing for a while, and then gradually moving away. He waited for a long time but didn't hear any knocking. After several rounds of this, he was almost driven to the brink of nervous exhaustion.
Finally, unable to bear it any longer, he opened the door and looked at Xu Chun in a deep voice, "Come in."
Xu Chun carefully observed Xie Jianyuan's expression, then silently shook her head.
Xie Jianyuan raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong?"
Xu Chun said slowly, "You're being a bit fierce right now."
Xie Jianyuan: "..."
Xu Chun: "You've changed."
Xie Jianyuan: "..."
He rubbed his cheeks and then gave a forced, insincere smile.
"Please come in, Brother Chun."
Chapter 51 Unexpected Changes
Xu Chun was satisfied and nodded reservedly before entering Xie Jianyuan's room.
Xie Jianyuan closed the door, turned around, and saw his face gradually disappear into the shadows as he walked slowly towards Xu Chun.
After hesitating for a moment, Xu Chun carefully chose her words and said, "... Today's variety show recording was due to the script, I'm sorry."
Xie Jianyuan looked at him without saying a word.
Xu Chun didn't know how to handle the situation. He pursed his lips with some difficulty. Although he was gentle, he rarely apologized repeatedly like this. So when Xie Jianyuan did not react, he also felt a little tired.
"I really don't want to lose you as a friend." Xu Chun sighed helplessly.
Xie Jianyuan's eyes flickered, and the last four words automatically filtered through his mind.
Seeing that his expression had softened slightly, Xu Chun knew things were looking up, so she quickly reached out and tugged at his sleeve, drawing out her voice as she called out, "Little Xie."
His voice was always gentle and mellow, but now he was drawing out his words, making it sound soft and sweet, almost like he was being coquettish. Yet, the expression on his face looked completely serious, as if he had no idea how charming he was.
Xie Jianyuan suppressed the urge to shout in his heart, lowered his eyes slightly, and his voice was slightly hoarse.
"Brother Chun."
Xu Chun straightened her back instinctively, just like a student whose name was called in class.
"What's wrong?"
Xie Jianyuan smiled slightly, "I'm not angry."
Xu Chun breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, but before he could relax, he heard a very low and deep voice above him. It turned out that Xie Jianyuan had unknowingly come up in front of him and was looking down at him.
Xie Jianyuan gazed at his face, remained silent for a moment, and then said slowly, "Brother Chun, I want to tell you something."
Xu Chun was slightly taken aback. "What is it?"
Just as Xie Jianyuan was about to speak, a piercing cell phone ringtone sounded.
"Tsk." He frowned slightly, glanced at the phone, and seeing it was a call from home, went out onto the balcony to answer it.
"Hello."
"Yes, I'm busy."
"I'm not going." Xie Jianyuan frowned and resolutely refused.
On the other end of the phone, Xie's mother was still nagging him to attend the party, saying he would meet many daughters of prominent families. Xie Jianyuan looked somewhat impatient, but then, as if remembering something, he turned to look at Xu Chun and saw that he had indeed slipped to the door, waiting for him to finish the call before leaving.
It seems they've achieved their goal and want to leave.
Their eyes met, Xu Chun paused slightly, then made a door-opening gesture while silently mouthing the words to him.
I'm leaving now.
Xie Jianyuan frowned slightly, but there was nothing he could do about it, so he could only sigh helplessly and nod.
Xu Chun a sigh of relief, opened the door, turned around and walked out. He had just seen that the caller ID showed it was Xie's mother, and knew that this was Xie Jianyuan's family matter, so he tactfully left the time to the mother and son.
However... Xu Chun thought of Xie Jianyuan's words just now and frowned slightly. What was he trying to say?
After thinking about it for a while, Xu Chun felt relieved. Anyway, it shouldn't be a big deal.
In August, the movie "Twin Cities," starring Xu Chun and Xie Jianyuan, held its premiere. Xu Chun and Xie Jianyuan stood side by side on the red carpet.
Because she was worried that Xie Jianyuan might make mistakes due to his lack of experience, Xu Chun stood by his side the whole time, reminding him things like where he should stand and how to greet the camera. She almost wanted to demonstrate for him herself.
On the red carpet, the flashbulbs kept shining on the two of them, Xu Chun had long since mastered the art of remaining unfazed. Even when the flashes made his eyes blurry, he was able to face the cameras calmly without blinking.
Standing in front of the autograph board, Xu Chun and Xie Jianyuan both signed their names, one on the left and one on the right, which prompted a joke from the host.
