91: Naza: Brother Le, do you think I'm pretty now?

"Director Luo, Brother Le is the friend I mentioned. Brother Le, this is Director Luo from our Film Crew." Naza introduced the director and Chen Le to each other.

Director Luo smiled and nodded. "Naza, I really didn't expect the friend you mentioned to be Director Chen. Having Director Chen visit our Film Crew is truly an honor!"

"Director Luo, I'm just here to see Naza. I hope I'm not disturbing you? It looks like you're still filming?" Director Chen looked around the set and saw other actors filming.

"No, no, they're just shooting some details. We're about to have lunch anyway, so it's no trouble at all." Director Luo waved his hand hurriedly.

Then, he continued with a smile, "I see you haven't eaten either, Director Chen. Would you do us the honor of joining us for lunch?"

Seeing this, Chen Le nodded and smiled, "Sure!"

Naza watched from the side, thinking to herself, "I was clearly the one who invited Brother Le to lunch first."

But she only thought it; in this situation, Chen Le really couldn't refuse.

At noon, Director Luo treated Chen Le, Naza, and other lead actors of the Film Crew to a meal nearby.

During the meal, Director Luo familiarly poured wine for Chen Le and chatted with him with a smile.

"Director Chen, I've admired your reputation for a long time! I didn't expect you to achieve such success at such a young age. You'll definitely be a pillar of Chinese cinema in the future."

"Director Luo, you flatter me. I'm not as great as you say. I didn't expect 'lost in thailand' to be such a hit either. I still have a lot to learn from seniors like you." Chen Le exchanged pleasantries with Director Luo.

Then they discussed their views on the current state of Chinese cinema, and the more they talked, the more they found they had in common.

Soon, the meal ended.

Director Luo found that although Chen Le was young, his insights in many areas were very unique, which benefited him greatly.

In the afternoon, they returned to the Film Crew.

Beside Chen Le, Naza was a bit unhappy.

Just now at the table, Chen Le was so busy chatting with Director Luo that he basically ignored her.

Even though he clearly came to see her.

Fortunately, her little temper came and went quickly.

When Chen Le said he wanted to see her act, she immediately ran off happily to prepare for her scene.

Chen Le stood in a corner of the Film Crew's set, his eyes locked on Naza as she emerged from the dressing room. She was dressed in a magnificent ancient costume, with long hair cascading like a waterfall and features as delicate as a painting, looking like a fairy stepped out of a scroll.

Naza ran up to Chen Le, her eyes curving into crescents and a smile on her face that could captivate anyone. She looked at Chen Le, her eyes full of admiration.

"Brother Le, do you think I'm pretty like this?" Naza looked at Chen Le with anticipation, wanting to be praised.

Seeing Naza dressed like this, a flash of amazement appeared in Chen Le's eyes. He smiled and said, "Naza, you look very beautiful right now, just like a real fairy."

Hearing this, the smile on Naza's face grew even brighter.

Then, in a happy mood, she headed to the filming site.

This afternoon, Naza had two scenes to film.

The first scene was a parting scene between Naza's character and her beloved.

In front of the camera, Naza built up her emotions. Soon, tears welled up in her eyes but refused to fall, creating a pitiful look that was truly moving.

Chen Le watched from the side, mesmerized. Naza's progress was indeed obvious; she entered the state for the crying scene instantly.

After finishing this segment, during the break, Chen Le walked over.

At this moment, tear stains still lingered on her face. She was clearly too deep in character and hadn't recovered yet.

But when she saw Chen Le, she still managed to squeeze out a slight smile.

Chen Le distressedly handed her a tissue. Naza took it gently and whispered, "Thank you, Brother Le."

"What's there to thank me for? Naza, you've made great progress. I think your acting is very good," Chen Le praised with a smile.

Hearing Chen Le's praise, Naza was extremely happy.

When she was performing the crying scene just now, she was thinking about what she would do if Brother Le didn't want her anymore.

At that thought, the tears she couldn't force out earlier suddenly gushed forth.

That was why she hadn't recovered yet.

Now, hearing Chen Le praise her, the worry in her heart instantly dissipated.

"Really? I feel like it's not good enough yet," Naza said somewhat bashfully.

"It's already very good. After all, you haven't been acting for long, Naza. I didn't expect you to improve this fast." Chen Le was not stingy with his praise.

Girls should be praised when they deserve it!

The second scene was a segment where Naza's character engaged in a battle of wits in the imperial court.

She changed into a solemn court gown, her brow exuding maturity and dignity.

Chen Le watched with great interest. This scene was quite difficult, but Naza performed it exceptionally well, earning applause from everyone on set.

After filming ended, Naza changed out of her costume.

"Brother Le, shall we go have dinner together tonight?" Naza looked at Chen Le and smiled.

"Sure!" Chen Le nodded.

Hearing this, a joyful smile appeared on Naza's face.

Then she and Chen Le headed to the restaurant together.

Walking on the road, they kept a certain distance, chatting as they walked and occasionally smiling at each other.

However, once they entered the private room of the restaurant,

Naza could no longer hold back. She grabbed Chen Le's hand and pulled it into her embrace.

Then she looked at Chen Le, her eyes filled with tenderness and attachment.

"Mm, Brother Le, I couldn't bear it anymore," Naza said softly.

Hearing this, Chen Le felt a bit guilty. After all, their relationship couldn't be openly publicized.

"I'm sorry, Naza, for not being able to give you the treatment of a real girlfriend."

"It's okay, Brother Le, this was my own choice. It's enough as long as you have me in your heart," Naza said sensibly.

Her love brain was beyond cure, but she didn't want to cure it anyway.

Soon, the waiter finished serving the dishes.

They began to enjoy this rare time alone, tasting the delicious food and chatting.

Naza picked up a piece of meat and held it to Chen Le's mouth. Chen Le opened his mouth and took a satisfying bite.

Then, the two continued to feed each other.

Naza looked at Chen Le and noticed a grain of rice near his mouth. She couldn't help but lean in and eat the grain of rice.

Chen Le didn't expect Naza to do this and was stunned for a moment.

Seeing Chen Le dazed, Naza's face turned red instantly. She only now realized what she had just done and hurriedly explained, "There was a grain of rice on your mouth, I wanted to help you get it off."

"It's fine, it's fine. Next time you want to, you can just help me get it off," Chen Le said with a raised eyebrow and a smile.

Hearing this, Naza's face turned very red.

Over the next few days, Chen Le became a frequent visitor to the Film Crew. He would appear on set on time every day, silently watching Naza film.

And when Naza had free time, he would go up to chat with her to relieve her boredom or hand her a cup of hot tea.

Besides accompanying Naza, Chen Le also became familiar with other actors in the Film Crew. He was the type who could talk to anyone, so he soon fit right in with them.

For example, Jing Tian and several other lead actors.
