Wen Jiu rested for one night, and was woken up by a phone call from Qu Feng the next day. After getting up and washing up, she found that her luggage had already been packed.
"Honey, you're awake?"
Feng Chi brought in a small rice cooker and steamed buns, placed them on the table next to him, and the curtains opened automatically.
"My things are packed. Let's have breakfast before we leave."
"Oh!" Wen Jiu nodded blankly. In the morning light, the man, wearing a pale yellow bear apron, was setting out dishes and serving porridge in an orderly manner. The soft light shone on him, making his profile exceptionally handsome.
Wen Jiu was momentarily stunned by what she saw.
"What's wrong?" Feng Chi turned around and saw the boy standing there motionless. He thought the boy was feeling unwell. "Are you still feeling unwell?"
Wen Jiu shook her head, her cheeks slightly flushed.
Last night, Feng Chi seemed ruthless, but he was actually very careful and didn't hurt him.
It was just a little red and swollen from being rubbed, but I applied some medicine before bed and it's much better now.
"Let's have some porridge first," Feng Chi, helping the person sit down. "Today we're having shrimp porridge and steamed buns."
Wen Jiu nodded.
Feng Chi served him his porridge and a basket of steamed buns, then personally escorted him downstairs.
Open the car door and raise your hand to block the top of the door to prevent him from hitting it.
Wen Jiu looked up at him, hesitating to speak.
Feng Chi was so well-behaved today, beautiful, virtuous, and obedient. With her eyebrows lowered and her eyes slightly red and moist, Wen Jiu felt a pang of tenderness in her heart.
I felt like I was soaking in sugar water, so sweet it was bubbling.
"I... I'll miss you."
Overwhelmed by the feeling of parting, Wen Jiu couldn't help but reach out and hug him, her eyes also reddening.
"Work hard, and don't stay up late or skip meals."
"Also, call me if you miss me," Wen Jiu said, her voice choked with emotion. "I might not be able to answer right away, but I'll always reply when I see your message."
Feng Chi gave a soft "hmm" and tentatively asked, "About yesterday..."
"We're even now. I'll be more careful in the future," Wen Jiu, wiping away her tears and patting her chest as she promised, "I'll protect my innocence!"
Feng Chi nodded, his smile bright and dazzling.
"Go."
After closing the car door, Wen Jiu opened the car window.
Having been bombarded with PDA since the start of the day, Qu Feng & Meng Xiao, after the couple's half-hour-long, lovey-dovey farewell. "..."
And the driver who almost stepped on the gas. "..."
When will you two ever stop?
Feng Chi leaned down and asked him, "What's wrong?"
Wen Jiu glanced at the other people in the car, grabbed the man's collar with one hand, and leaned in, her face flushed.
Feng Chi's pupils contracted slightly. After a moment of stunned silence, he braced himself against the car door with one hand and grabbed Wen Jiu's head from behind.
The two exchanged a sweet and lingering kiss through the car door.
Wen Jiu closed her eyes and quietly waited for her face to cool down, but the three intense gazes not only failed to lower her temperature, but instead caused it to rise even higher.
After receiving countless gossipy glances, Wen Jiu opened her eyes and, unable to contain herself any longer, blurted out, "You guys..."
"I've imagined what you'd be like in a relationship countless times, but I never expected you to be this clingy." Qu Feng clicked his tongue and shook his head. "Look at that cloying, saccharine scent of love!"
"It's all Feng Chi's fault, he's too clingy," Wen Jiu said, sticking her neck out. " Brother Qu, you don't understand."
"Oh?" Qu Feng glanced over lazily. "Then who was the one who leaned in for a kiss just now?"
Wen Jiu:...
Meng Xiao covered her mouth to stifle a laugh.
Anyway, that's just how it is!
Wen Xiaojiu, unwilling to lose face, insisted on finishing her act despite her flushed cheeks, saying, " Feng Chi really misses me; he cried all night."
"His eyes were red this morning, but he kept hiding from me, not wanting me to see." Wen Jiu sighed, "He's so adorable, it breaks my heart."
"..."
Judging from the shocked looks on their faces, they probably thought that Wen Xiaojiu, taking advantage of Bigshot Feng's absence, had started to become delirious and talk nonsense.
Qu Feng asked suspiciously, "Does President Feng know that you're spreading rumors about him outside?"
Wen Jiu:... Ugh, so annoying!
These days, why does nobody believe you when you tell the truth?
When the three arrived at the film set, the crew members were all busy, each doing their job in an orderly manner, and seemed quite reliable.
Qu Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It's fine as long as it's normal.
"Hello, are you Mr. Wen Jiu?" A young girl in work clothes walked over and asked with a smile.
This was the first time Wen Jiu had ever heard someone call him so seriously in such a sweet voice. He took off his sunglasses, scratched the back of his head, and smiled shyly, "Yes, yes, that's me!"
Hello, hello!
Qu Feng is simply unbearable to look at!
The staff member covered their mouth, trying not to laugh, " Director Zhang is already waiting inside, please follow me."
Upon seeing the people arrive, Zhang Guozhong immediately put down what he was doing and went to greet them, his loud voice instantly attracting the attention of the entire crew.
" Xiao Wen Jiu is here!"
Wen Jiu's smile froze instantly. Not wanting to offend the director on his turf, she could only whisper a reminder during the handshake, "Remove the 'little' part, thank you."
Zhang Guozhong laughed heartily.
"You kid, your focus is still so weird, hahaha!"
After Zhang Guozhong finished speaking, he shook hands with Qu Feng and assured him with a smile, "Go ahead and get busy, I'll take care of this kid!"
Qu Feng smiled politely, " Wen Jiu is always the most troublemaker. I'm worried about her, so it's better if I stay and keep watch from the side."
"Tsk, fine then!"
Zhang Guozhong waved his hand, "Come on, everyone, let's get to know each other first. Let's have a meeting."
" The Prosperous Age " is an ancient political intrigue drama created by Zhang Guozhong with the aim of winning awards. He spent a year polishing the script alone, and the story is entirely original.
After the script was completed, a lengthy casting process began.
The casting was not finalized until recently.
To Wen Jiu's surprise, the Double Jade Husbands were also there.
Seeing the person staring blankly, Yu Qing took the initiative to hug them and said with a smile, " Xiaojiu, we meet again."
Wen Jiu: "... Long time no see."
Yu Qing covered her mouth and chuckled softly, "You seem quite surprised."
Yu Qing still retains her gentle and intellectual beauty. After joining the film crew, she deliberately maintains the character's behavior and habits, and every move she makes has the demeanor of an ancient person.
"Mmm!" Wen Jiu and Shen Yu nodded in greeting, then looked at Yu Qing with shock. "I didn't expect you two to be here."
Moreover, given that they were also involved, he was actually the lead actor?!
He, a "junior" with no notable achievements, is being relegated to supporting roles by award-winning actors like the Double Jade Husbands?!
If word gets out, Xiang will be cursed out by everyone, right???
Wen Xiaojiu trembled.
"I don't judge roles by their status; for me, it's all about suitability and whether it's right for me."
Zhang Guozhong tapped the table, signaling Wen Jiu to tone down his expression and adopt the demeanor of a leading actor.
"The fact that you're sitting here shows that everyone... at least I believe in your abilities."
Wen Jiu nodded repeatedly. "Yes, yes! I will do my best."
"Relax," Yu Qing patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Actually, A-Yu and I were cast a long time ago. We were specially invited by Director Zhang to participate this time, so you don't need to feel guilty."
"Speaking of which, it was those two who recommended you to me first," Zhang Guozhong added leisurely, "They said you were the perfect candidate for Wen Yan, and that's when I started paying attention to you."
Yu Qing still smiled, " Xiaojiu earned this opportunity through her own abilities; I dare not take credit for it."
Wen Jiu was deeply moved.
Why are you staring at me for so long?
Perhaps it was Wen Xiaojiu's gaze was too ardent, Shen Yu frowned unhappily, "Go look at your own wife."
Wen Jiu's lips twitched:...
Do you think I don't want to?!
It's all because his wife isn't here!
Zhang Guozhong: "Hahahaha!"
The other actors also burst into laughter.
Zhang Guozhong may seem unreliable, but he has an incredibly sharp eye for talent and high standards. The actors he chooses are either passionate about acting or have exceptional talent; they are all capable individuals who respect the acting profession.
Even if they have something on their mind, they won't show it.
Therefore, the atmosphere on set was very relaxed and comfortable, and everyone got along very well.
