"We haven't seen each other for a long time. Don't you miss me?"
Jiang Chen could imagine her big watery eyes looking at him affectionately.
"Umm, I do." Jiang Chen sneaked a peek at her.
He saw that Xia Shiyu had already moved her eyes away from the phone, but her posture of looking straight ahead was stiff no matter how one looked at it.
"Umm, so cold." Liu Yao instantly noticed Jiang Chen's absent-mindedness as she stuck out her tongue.
"I'm driving … How have you been?" Jiang Chen changed the topic with his hands on the steering wheel.
"I'm filming. I've been busy from morning until now. I ate lunch and dinner together. I'm so tired." Although she was complaining, Jiang Chen could hear the joy in her voice.
It was obvious that she truly loved acting.
If she only liked money, with the "pocket money" Jiang Chen gave her, she didn't have to do anything and just enjoy the life of a sugar baby.
He could hear the sound of the crew writing the story on the other end of the phone. She must have taken the time to make this call.
"You haven't eaten yet?" Jiang Chen asked nonchalantly.
"I'm eating. The food from the crew is disgusting. I want you to treat me to a feast," Liu Yao said coyly.
"Let's talk about it when you're not busy."
"Umm, okay. Speaking of which, when are we going on vacation? I'm looking forward to it, "Liu Yao said excitedly.
"We'll go this month, but can you leave now?" Jiang Chen couldn't help but laugh when he heard her cheerful voice.
"Hehe, did you forget that you are also one of the producers? The director has to listen to you. You can adjust my scenes and put them at the back. It's all up to you, "Liu Yao said coyly.
Jiang Chen paused for a moment before he realized it was indeed the case.
The reason why the producers found Liu Yao was not so much because of her ability, but because of Jiang Chen's ability. But Jiang Chen didn't mind. He didn't lack money, so he invested 100 million RMB and became the biggest investor of in production.
Other than the famous directors like Jet Li and Zhang Yimou, any small director had to please the investors. If you offended them, they would withdraw their investment out of displeasure. Then, you could only hold onto the script and cry. Where could he find a sponsor who would spend 100 million and not randomly change the script?
Therefore, Liu Yao was qualified to play the second female lead.
At the same time, the boot interface of all the phones in the series was changed to the boot animation of Future 1.0.
"You're right." Jiang Chen smiled after he realized what was going on.
"Speaking of which, what are you doing now?"
"I'm treating someone to a meal."
"Is it a beauty?" Liu Yao pouted.
"Yes," Jiang Chen answered honestly.
"Am I prettier than me?" Liu Yao elegantly ate her boxed lunch as she slyly rolled her eyes.
"Each has its own merits," Jiang Chen replied vaguely.
"Sob sob, why do I feel so unwilling to hear this answer? What kind of girl is she? "
Sweat, the person is right beside me, how am I supposed to reply?
Jiang Chen sneaked a peek at Xia Shiyu and subtly replied.
"Kind of like … the homeroom teacher in your last movie."
"Oh! That one, cold on the outside but warm on the inside, the ice beauty type? I can do that too. " Liu Yao paused, moved closer to the phone and covered it with her hand. She lowered her voice and changed into the cold and serious voice of an ice beauty. "Jiang Chen, why didn't you hand in your math homework? … What? You didn't do it? That can't be done. Come to my office after school, I want to see you finish. Hand in all the homework you didn't finish yesterday to me. "
Jiang Chen could imagine how her bright red lips emphasized the last few words.
[Fu * k, this little vixen.]
Jiang Chen was speechless and almost stepped on the gas.
"Fu * k."
"Hehe, come at me. Ah, break time is almost over, I'm going to hang up now, mua. "
After hanging up, Jiang Chen let out a sigh of relief and took off the Bluetooth headset.
"… Did you really just follow Liu Yao?" Xia Shiyu said dubiously.
"Uh, I just randomly got her phone number."
[Fu * k, why do I have to lie?] Jiang Chen mocked himself in his mind.
Xia Shiyu didn't seem to want to continue on this topic. Instead, she turned her head and looked to the side.
Jiang Chen let out a sigh of relief as he held onto the steering wheel and focused on the road in front of him.
[The atmosphere is weird.]
[Is she … jealous?]
Jiang Chen's expression turned strange.
…
Because they didn't know where to eat, Jiang Chen drove Xia Shiyu to Shimao.
"Welcome, is there a lady and a gentleman?"
As soon as Jiang Chen and Xia Shiyu walked into Xiuyu Pavilion, the waitress at the door greeted them with a smile.
"Mhmm, help me pick a quiet table for two," Jiang Chen said nonchalantly.
"Okay, sir, this way please," the waitress said politely.
Because it was a weekday, there weren't many customers. Usually, if one wanted to eat, they would have to wait in line for a long time.
The environment inside the restaurant was elegant and quiet. Most of the people eating here were couples. Seeing this scene, Xia Shiyu's face turned red and her legs stiffened.
[If we eat here, doesn't that make us look like a couple?]
With that thought in mind, Xia Shiyu discreetly peeked at Jiang Chen. But on his face, she didn't see the nervousness she expected.
[He doesn't seem to realize that the atmosphere here is like a date?]
Thinking of this, Xia Shiyu couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, although she didn't even know why she was annoyed.
Regardless of what Xia Shiyu thought, Jiang Chen didn't notice anything wrong with the atmosphere here. He just thought the environment was nice and quiet. Men were destined to be simple creatures and didn't think as much as women.
With the waitress guiding them to their seats, Jiang Chen picked up the menu and handed it to Xia Shiyu like a gentleman.
"What do you want to eat?"
Because of her thoughts, Xia Shiyu looked at the dazzling menu with her finger on her lower lip. She couldn't think of anything to eat.
Seeing the expression on the customer's face, the waitress smiled and began to promote her own dishes.
"Is this your first time at our restaurant?"
"Mhmm …"
"Our Cheese Bacon Baked Rice is very good, and this steak is also very well received. Of course, I recommend this couple meal. It's perfect for couples, and it also comes with a special dessert – Heart to Heart. "
Hearing this, Xia Shiyu's face instantly turned red.
Especially when she saw the ice cream called "Heart to Heart" on the menu, the two straws formed a heart shape and intertwined together.
Her brain instantly crashed.
"Couple? No, no, you misunderstood. "
"Ahem, we're just friends, not a couple." Seeing the panic on Xia Shiyu's face, Jiang Chen also explained to the waitress.
Although both of them denied it, the waitress keenly noticed that the woman's face was filled with shyness, and there was no awkwardness on the man's face, so the relationship between the two must be between friends and flirting.
With a smile, the waitress bowed and apologized, and at the same time, she inadvertently pushed the two of them.
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. I saw that you two look like a couple, so I misunderstood. I hope you don't mind. "
Husband, husband and wife?
Xia Shiyu completely fell into a state of panic, and Jiang Chen also touched his nose with a slightly blushing face.
But then, a disharmonious voice rang out.
"Waitress, are you not done yet? Can you hurry up? "
Hearing this voice, Xia Shiyu's expression instantly froze.
Jiang Chen could clearly feel that the expressionless face became even colder.
