Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Drenched in liquid, a young actress turned her head toward Lu Lin in an instant, her heart filled with trepidation. She asked cautiously, “Teacher Lu, did I do something wrong?”
Lu Lin hastily shook his head and then erupted into laughter that echoed throughout the set. This left everyone puzzled, especially the young actress, who became even more apprehensive.
Shen Xi also heard the exaggerated laughter and, wearing a mischievous grin, approached Lu Lin with the documents in her hand.
Meanwhile, the young actress was still racking her brain to figure out what she had done to offend Lu Lin.
Lu Lin, an award-winning actor, was not one to engage in idle chatter. His sudden burst of laughter was indeed quite disconcerting.
Lu Lin reassured the young actress who had been staring at him, “It’s nothing. I was just laughing, and I accidentally spat it out. I’m sorry about that. You can go back to what you were doing. My assistant will bring you a new set of clothes.’
The young actress breathed a sigh of relief at Lu Lin’s response and flashed a
sheepish smile at him. “No problem at all,” she responded.
With that, she swiftly ran away.
Lu Lin, still chuckling, held his stomach and remarked, “Xi, what’s going on with that hair of yours? Are you auditioning for ‘Ba La La, the Magical Fairy?
Haha, you’ve got me in stitches.”
Shen Xi, not too pleased, tossed the documents into Lu Lin’s hands and said through gritted teeth, “Stop laughing, or I’ll hit you.”
Shen Xi’s words shocked the onlookers. Who was this young lady with a head of pink hair, daring to threaten Lu Lin, the movie star? They held their breath, anticipating how Lu Lin would deal with this audacious girl.
Lu Lin raised his hand. Was he going to strike her? Though nobody had witnessed Lu Lin resort to violence before, there was always a first time for everything.
However, Lu Lin’s hand merely landed lightly on the girl’s head, and he merrily ruffled her hair, as if petting a cute pink animal.
Shen Xi noticed the curious stares around her and swatted Lu Lin’s hand away with irritation. “Stop it. It’s like petting a dog.”
Lu Lin could not help but burst into laughter once again. Before the cameras began rolling, his laughter grew even more uninhibited.
Meanwhile, in a small dressing room, Gu Ning was doing her makeup when she heard Lu Lin’s laughter. She furrowed her brow slightly and asked, “Why is Lu Lin laughing like that?”
She had been working with Lu Lin for several days and he was usually so cold and reserved.
Hearing Gu Nings remark, Gu Nings assistant went to have a look. Soon, she returned and set her phone in front of Gu Ning, displaying a photo. “There’s a girl with pink hair visiting Lu Lin. They seem close.”
With curiosity, Gu Nings eyes were drawn to the photo depicting Lu Lin with an affectionate smile, his large hand gently caressing the back of a girl with pink hair, who had her back to the camera.
Gu Nings lips quirked up ever so slightly. It seemed that Lu Lin’s refusal to engage in a publicity stunt with her was not because of a lack of interest but rather because he had feelings for someone else.
This piece of information was likely to send shockwaves among Lu Lin’s fans.
“Send me a copy of the photo later,” Gu Ning said casually as she fixed her gaze on her reflection in the mirror.
“Of course, Sister Ning,” her assistant, Gu Chun, replied promptly, fearing that a delay might lead to her being reprimanded.
Gu Ning was notorious for her short temper in the industry, and she did not even spare her seniors from it.
The assistants never lasted more than a month, but as for Gu Chun, her endurance was entirely due to her being originally a servant of the Gu family. Her mother had also worked as a maid in the Gu family, which left Gu Chun with no escape. She could only remain by Gu Nings side.
But this time, in her collaboration with Lu Lin, Gu Ning was surprisingly calm. Gu Chun thought it might be because Gu Ning liked Lu Lin. Usually, women would rein in their tempers when they were around men that they had feelings for, right?
After Gu Chun sent the photo, she stood quietly to the side.
Gu Ning gazed at herself in the mirror with satisfaction. Cosmetic surgery had indeed been effective. Not only had her appearance changed, but her beauty had become more refined.
Once Gu Ning had finished her makeup, she got up. Gu Chun thought Gu Ning was about to go out, so she hurriedly approached to assist her. However, Gu Ning slapped her hand away, saying, “Are you blind or just dumb? Didn’t you notice I’m still in front of the mirror?”
Gu Chun stood silently to the side, clutching her hands, now red from the slap.
Despite having been Gu Nings assistant for a while and becoming accustomed to certain aspects of the job, she still felt somewhat aggrieved.
She remembered the last time Gu Ning had scolded her for not assisting her promptly. Gu Ning had slapped her in front of everyone, which was why she had been so anxious just now.
Little did she know that she would be slapped again..
