After reaching an agreement, Shi Hanchu didn't go back on his word. After Su Manman's acupuncture session, he went to have a meal with her the next day.
"Are you planning to monitor my acupuncture sessions every three days?" Su Manman asked as she casually looked at Shi Hanchu, who was sitting opposite her.
"If I don't have time, I'll get Dong Dong to accompany you …"
"Do you think Dong Dong can control me?" Su Manman smiled.
Shi Hanchu could clearly sense that ever since he realized that Su Manman's sense of taste hadn't recovered …
Or rather, ever since he chose to stay in the hospital that night, Su Manman's attitude towards him had been a little strange.
It felt like she was deliberately stirring up trouble.
"You're not going there to treat your tongue for you. It's to care about you and love your family." Shi Hanchu's slender fingers held the pen and wrote down the taste of another dish in his notebook.
Shi Hanchu avoided Su Manman's sharpness, and his attitude towards treating her tongue wasn't as harsh as before. Su Manman was at a loss for a moment.
The two of them ordered a large table of dishes. Shi Hanchu only took a bite to memorize the taste for Su Manman, then stopped moving his chopsticks.
Su Manman lazily leaned against the chair and looked at Shi Hanchu. When Shi Hanchu handed her the notebook, Su Manman roughly flipped through it, closed the notebook, and asked Shi Hanchu, "Shi Hanchu, you know I like you. Aren't you afraid that I'll misunderstand that you like me and pester you by treating me like this?"
Shi Hanchu wiped his mouth with a napkin and said to Su Manman unhurriedly, "To be honest, Manman, I don't plan to find a girlfriend or wife in this lifetime, so you don't have to waste your time on me."
"Are you really going to guard Jiang Mingzhu for the rest of your life?" Su Manman smiled, but the smile didn't reach her eyes.
"To tell you the truth, I probably won't live past 35 years old …" Shi Hanchu calmly recounted. "I still have about two years to live. Why should I waste your time?"
Su Manman thought that this was the reason why Shi Hanchu rejected her. She blinked her clear eyes. "Terminal illness?"
"That's not it. Back then, after I was saved by Old Master Su, he suggested that I go to the hospital to have my heart checked. My heart condition isn't too good …"
Su Manman frowned slightly as she stared at Shi Hanchu.
Shi Hanchu didn't look like he had a heart problem at all. He had been running and exercising all the time. Didn't people with heart problems not run or do strenuous exercises?
Shi Hanchu personally did some of the fight scenes during filming?
If he didn't live past the age of 35, his heart disease should be quite serious.
So, was this a lie that Shi Hanchu was rejecting her?!
"Do you think you look like a heart patient?! You might as well find an excuse to say that you have a terminal illness. It'll be more believable … "Su Manman revealed a polite smile, her eyes narrowing slightly.
"In terms of medicine, I believe in Old Master Su. Old Master Su said … appropriate exercise is beneficial to my condition. He told me to control it myself. As long as it doesn't cause me to feel flustered, short of breath, or pain, it's within the appropriate range," Shi Hanchu explained to Su Manman seriously.
Su Manman smiled and nodded. "I got it. Su Manman picked up the notebook and smiled at Shi Hanchu. She then got up and walked out …"
Su Manman's expression was extremely ugly when she turned around.
What bullsh * t heart problem? Shi Hanchu's excuses for rejecting people were getting more and more perfunctory.
…
"What's wrong with her these few days? Why doesn't Manman seem to be in a good mood? "Dong Dong looked at Su Manman, who was being interviewed on the show, and turned to ask Yang Weiyi.
Yang Weiyi didn't know either, but she could sense that Su Manman's mood had been bad recently.
Even though she was smiling at everyone on stage, she couldn't see any trace of a smile in her eyes.
In the past, every time she appeared on a show or did a promotional event, as long as Shi Hanchu was around, Su Manman's smile would be especially sweet and beautiful. But today …
Her smile was very superficial, and there was a hint of coldness in it.
After the show, Dong Dong handed Su Manman a glass of warm water. Su Manman took it and dialed Tu Jie's number. "Brother Jie, you've arranged too little work. Other managers can't wait to squeeze out the most out of their artists. But you … you're letting me take on a few jobs every day!"
Dong Dong's eyes widened. Wasn't Su Manman's work intensity enough?
Assistants like them were almost at their limits, yet Su Manman still wanted to increase the intensity of her work.
But what could she do if she followed a workaholic boss? Of course, she would continue following him …
The fast-paced and busy life would make Su Manman forget about Shi Hanchu.
Moreover, she needed to use good work to speak for herself.
Tu Jie chose two movies for Su Manman. Both were directed by good directors. One was the main lead … and the other was a supporting role.
The main lead was the same type as Elder Feng Yi, whom Su Manman had played previously. Tu Jie felt that it would be very useful to let Su Manman solidify her character.
The supporting role was another kind of gentle young lady from a wealthy family. Tu Jie hoped that Su Manman would have a new challenge.
Tu Jie said that he could choose one out of the two, but Su Manman ended up taking both scripts.
Even though the filming of the two movies clashed, Su Manman still said that she was confident that she could film both of them well.
Su Manman's greatest talent was that she had many masks in her bones. These masks were custom-made for the character, and she could put them on and take them off at any time.
Just as the two movies were about to finish filming, Director Chen Wenhua received news that Su Manman had won the Best Supporting Role and Best Newcomer Awards through a television series called "The Olden Days."
Director Chen Wenhua sent the movie to the Hundred Blossoms Film Festival, and Su Manman was nominated for the Best Actress Award with her superb acting skills. She would definitely win the Best Newcomer Award!
Director Chen Wenhua predicted that Su Manman would also win the Best Actress Award. She would be the most popular newcomer this year …
Things developed as Director Chen Wenhua had predicted!
However, Su Manman didn't appear to receive the award that night. It was said that … she was filming and couldn't make time.
The fans said that the elder was willful and always lived as she pleased …
This could be said to be a compliment!
The fans were extremely proud.
They didn't know what Director Chen Wenhua was thinking. Originally, Su Manman had asked Director Chen Wenhua to accept the award on her behalf, but Director Chen Wenhua pushed Shi Hanchu on stage to accept the award on her behalf.
This made Su Manman and Shi Hanchu's C
The fans reveled.
They knew the inside story and had been hanging around in C
Dong Dong, who was in the group chat, didn't say a word …
She knew that Su Manman hadn't seen Shi Hanchu in a long, long time. She didn't even go to such a grand film festival because she didn't want to bump into Shi Hanchu.
Looking at Su Manman, who was wearing her costume and sitting quietly in her novel, Dong Dong, as the C fans,
The fans were very anxious.
They didn't want to wait for the update tomorrow morning and went to bed early. Today, Qianqian needed to rest after writing her new novel. She couldn't take it anymore with tears and snot running down her face.
