45: Chapter 45 Ruan Xingyu, you're hopeless.

The progress of the MV shoot was faster than expected.

Director Liang was afraid of delaying Ruan Xingyu's other work, so he prioritized filming her scenes, and it only took half a day to get everything done.

However, the next day, Ruan Xingyu felt that since she was idle anyway, she found an excuse to go visit someone.

She didn't even try to chat with him; after arriving, she bought milk tea for everyone on the team and then just sat there playing on her phone.

If it weren't for the messages and secretly taken photos of him she sent on WeChat, Lin Chuyan would have almost thought she wasn't there to see him.

After finishing the Beijing part, Lin Chuyan followed the team to Hong Kong to shoot some additional beach scenes; it wasn't too troublesome since it was a same-day round trip.

On the way back, he received a call from his senior, Zhang Wentang.

"Xiao Yan, what have you been busy with lately?"

"I've been recording a mini-album lately, and I just received your call right after finishing the MV shoot."

"You can also do Singing?"

Zhang Wentang seemed to suddenly become interested.

"Yeah, hahaha, do you like Singing too, Senior?"

"Of course, but I just sing randomly by myself when I'm free, and then record it; it's not professional like you guys."

"No, no, what professional or not? This is my first time too. Do you know Tianxing?"

"I don't."

"...It's just a record company; I'm collaborating with them on the album. If you're interested someday, Senior, I can introduce you to them."

Lin Chuyan certainly wouldn't be naive enough to think Zhang Wentang couldn't sing; his senior was just being modest. Judging by his attainments in acting, he was definitely someone who loved whatever profession he was in.

"Hahaha, we'll see." Zhang Wentang laughed happily on the other end of the line. "Back to business, I have a play starting next month. It just so happens that the director is still hesitating about the candidates for a few young actors; do you want to come and try out?"

"What kind of role is it, do you know, Senior?"

Lin Chuyan didn't agree immediately, and Zhang Wentang nodded instead: "A crime film, the character is very bad, the kind that might get killed by the male lead. How about it, interested?"

"Sure, sure, where is it?"

Zhang Wentang stirred up his excitement with just a few words.

"Shancheng."

After hanging up, Lin Chuyan immediately called Wu Yue and briefly explained the matter.

Wu Yue's idea was very direct: do his best to fight for the role.

"You previously acted in a web movie, and it was the male lead number two; you also acted in a web drama, and I don't know when it will be released. Now there is an opportunity to act in a big-screen movie in front of you, so you have to try it no matter what. Besides, your senior Zhang Wentang hasn't taken a bad film in these years. Don't look at him as if he plays supporting roles everywhere, but it's not easy to invite him."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Hearing Wu Yue say this, Lin Chuyan had no more doubts in his heart.

"Then I'll book the flight, is tonight okay?"

"Emmm... make it tomorrow; I have something to deal with tonight."

"By the way, how are things going with that vocal teacher of yours?"

"Ah?"

"Don't pretend, the one you mentioned last time, the Tianxing employee."

"Oh, that one; to tell you the truth, I plan to confess tonight."

"..."

"What?"

"I didn't expect you to be so slow; how long has it been and you still haven't sealed the deal?"

"...Goodbye."

Lin Chuyan was really planning to confess.

It wasn't necessarily that it had to be today, but he just happened to receive the call from his senior and thought about settling this matter before going on a business trip.

The two of them were now very affectionate, and they couldn't stand not seeing each other for a day. Although the feeling of ambiguity was great, keeping the girl hanging without speaking up wasn't the right thing to do.

Besides, Ruan Xingyu wasn't some idle person either; she was very busy, and who knew when she might go on a business trip and be unavailable, so if not now, when?

That was it, decided!

...

"So, to what extent have you two developed?"

Sun Yiyi had just finished her work these past two days and returned to Beijing, immediately concerning herself with her best friend's romance.

Wen Qi only sent her some inexplicable texts every day, things like "I'm going crazy, I'm going crazy", "Help, I'm dying", "Ahhhhh", and if one didn't know better, they might think it was some strange literature, which made Sun Yiyi feel so itchy with curiosity.

"Hee hee hee hee." Ruan Xingyu just laughed there, "I think it's pretty good."

"What does 'pretty good' mean?"

"I know now, he likes me too."

"???? " Sun Yiyi had black lines all over her head, "What do you mean? Just this? That's it?"

"We also held hands."

"Tell me about the hand-holding in detail!"

So Ruan Xingyu described it once.

"You're pretty good, I couldn't tell you were quite proactive."

Sun Yiyi was really a bit impressed.

"We also hugged for a bit."

Ruan Xingyu described it again.

"Anything else?"

"Doesn't seem like it!"

"...So, both the hand-holding and the hugging were initiated by you?"

Ruan Xingyu rested her chin in her hands and thought back carefully: "Now that you mention it, it seems that's true..."

"So you two are boyfriend and girlfriend now?"

Ruan Xingyu suddenly felt a bit guilty: "I don't know either."

"..." Sun Yiyi was a bit confused, "What do you mean you don't know?"

"It seems there was no confession, no clear relationship..."

"Xingxing, did you run into a scumbag? Why does this sound so unreliable to me."

Ruan Xingyu shook her head: "No, no, don't worry, he is a very good person, don't talk nonsense."

"Don't be anxious, let me sort this out properly. In other words, the current situation is that you two have held hands, hugged, then he didn't confess, you two aren't together, and finally, when I say one word about him, you feel bad for him?"

"..."

Ruan Xingyu was speechless.

"Awesome, too awesome, what kind of top-tier master is this. What kind of soul-bewitching soup did this guy called Lin Mo pour for you? No, I must meet him no matter what!"

Ruan Xingyu was very alert: "What do you want to do?"

"Nothing, just ask him out so I can meet him. Bystanders see clearly, you know; I'm afraid you've been deceived by a scumbag!"

"He definitely isn't, I can be sure of that."

"Why???"

"Think about it, he is so talented, so handsome, has a good personality, is humorous when he speaks, and isn't short of money. Tell me, what does he want from me? There are many women who are good-looking and like him."

Ruan Xingyu listed them like counting her family treasures, righteous and confident.

Sun Yiyi was bombarded by her, and for a moment couldn't even react: "What do you mean? You mean he has no shortcomings? The legendary perfect man?"

"Hahaha, in short, all your prejudices against him are because of one thing." Ruan Xingyu proudly extended a finger, "Because you haven't met him."

"Fine, very good, very good." Sun Yiyi was a bit out of temper, "Tell me, when are you going to ask him out to meet? I'm serious, not to say I'll help you vet him, but mainly if I meet him once, I can be at ease, if he is really as good as you say."

"By the way, Yiyi, I have a question for you." Ruan Xingyu seemed not to have heard what the other person said, only immersed in her own thoughts, "Actually, would it be okay if I were the one to confess?"

"..."

Sun Yiyi had a ghost-seeing expression: "Ruan Xingyu, you're done for, you are truly hopeless."
