Chapter 179 - So, You Can't See He's Pretending?
"Oh."
Stumped, Lu An nodded, and really didn't stand on ceremony as she instructed Second Brother, "I need to build some sets for the script since there aren't any external conditions. Then, the lighting, the background music, all of that needs to be handled behind the scenes. I…"
As Lu An spoke, she suddenly paused. She looked at Second Brother's expressionless but clearly confused face.
Puzzled, she asked, "Can you do it?"
"Mm."
A certain second brother was a little stumped. He wanted to say that of course he could; when he was bored, he also learned other things. Looking at his little sister's innocent and cute face, however, he inexplicably said, "I can learn.".
It was an utterly stern and expressionless face!
"You can?"
For some reason, Lu An suddenly wanted to laugh, but she restrained herself and said, "Alright, I'll tell you first what sets we need and how to arrange them."
Then, the siblings got busy.
Lu An bent over the table and spoke as she drew plans of the sets. Second Brother stood quietly next to her, his dark eyes very serious, but he was probably just looking at his little sister's face?
On the other side, Ling Chuan's face was dark.
There was also a group of actors with him whom Lu An had yet to sort out. They looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Ling Chuan clenched his fists and looked coldly at that person with dark eyes.
He wasn't in the habit of interrupting others, but…
"An, are you building the sets now?
"They're still waiting for you to go through the staging. Also, there are a lot of parts in the scripts that will probably need to be edited. Why don't you help them settle the scripts and roles first, and I'll help you build the sets?"
Ling Chuan narrowed his eyes and smiled, as if he was asking for her opinion, before he casually added, "I studied a bit of interior design when I was free, so I should be able to help you. Or, if you don't think it's possible, we can build a rough layout for you first, and you can add more details later?"
He pointed at Lu Jingfan on the side with the gentle and noble air of one who was willing to undertake the burden.
"Oh, alright…"
Lu An paused for a moment before she agreed.
Indeed, she should distribute the scripts and roles to the actors first. She could come back to the sets after the actors went off to try out their lines, which would save time. However —
"Can the two of you do it?"
Last time, it seemed that Third Brother and Big Brother had been at loggerheads with Ling Chuan. Lu An was a little worried.
Unexpectedly, Ling Chuan was very confident. "Of course! Our little An'an's brother is naturally also my brother."
With that, Ling Chuan put an arm around Second Brother in a "friendly" manner, as if they got along very well.
A certain second brother, who was so offended that his face was already half-black: "…"
His cold eyes said, "Let go!"
Unexpectedly, not only did the man not let go, he even said meaningfully, "Why? Second Brother, don't you want to be with me?"
Those blank and innocent eyes were just like what No. 3 and No. 1 dealt with last time.
Before Second Brother could reply, the d*mn man said to Little Sister, "An, it seems I was imagining things again!"
When he said that, he dutifully released Second Brother. The man looked away with a vexed and cryptic expression.
It was as if he was saying, "I just want to be friendly with him; I didn't expect things to turn out like this."
F*ck!
The gloomy and cold Second Brother instantly couldn't help but want to curse!
He suddenly understood what Big Brother meant by "faker."
"So, you can't see he's pretending?"
