âBecause I found you have your heart sealed so tight, I wouldnât be able to get into your heart if I wasnât aggressive.â Mo Liuxi glanced back at her.
Yan Su was stunned.
She never thought he could see through her so easily.
âBut I really donât want to be in a relationship right now...â
âThatâs an excuse.â Mo Liuxi shook his head carelessly, âI used to tell myself that Iâll wait at least until I finished college to start a relationship. Well, of course, if I didnât meet a girl that I liked, I could stay single my whole life. But now, as Iâve seriously fallen for someone, it doesnât count anymore.â
Mo Liuxi got off the car and opened the door for Yan Su. She got out slowly.
âYou have to answer all my calls and reply to all my messages,â Mo Liuxi said with a warning tone.
Back home, Yan Su took out her phone, and found a new contact â Liuxi.
A simple name.
She put the phone against her forehead, feeling a headache.
She clearly remembered every detail that happened by the riverside earlier. Mo Liuxiâs words, his lips; everything came to her like a storm.
...
After Yan Su left, Mo Liuxi spent almost every weekend together with Li Ming, working on the new film. He even went to two potential shooting locations.
After coming back, he made a trip to the training base that belonged to Li Mingâs studio.
Near the entrance, he ran into Xiao Si, who was the groomsman at Luosangâs wedding. At that time, Xiao Si was holding a vacuum cup, looking into the training site.
Hearing footsteps, he turned and saw Mo Liuxi. With a delightful surprised tone, he said, âLiuxi, long time no see. Why are you here?â
âIâm a director of this film,â Mo Liuxi responded with confusion. âYou being here is the weird thing, isnât it? Have you invested in this film?â
Li Ming smiled and said, âHis girlfriend and the artists from his company are all in this film. Recently, Mr. Xiao comes here almost every day.â
Mo Liuxi was surprised. He looked inside and saw five or six artists. He noticed an actress among them, dressed like a girl from the eighties.
âAre you talking about Ji Nuanyi?â he asked, with his mouth corner twitching slightly.
Xiao Si tittered, then put on a serious face. âYou canât call her name directly. You need to call her Sister Nuanyi. Well, you can also call her sister-in-law. After all, your brother-in-law and I are like brothers, so Iâm like an older brother of yours.â
Mo Liuxi stayed silent.
âSo, weâre close.â Xiao Si put a hand on his arm and continued saying, âWe were groomsmen together. Ah, I guess fate brought us together. So, youâll be nice to my girlfriend during the shoot, right?â
The last part of his speech was the point of the conversation.
Li Ming laughed. âTelling him that wonât be helpful. Liuxi is known for how cold-hearted he could be during work.
âI wonât direct a big part of the film,â Mo Liuxi said in a bland tone. âMy work will be finished in twenty days, at most.â
âI see. Itâs okay. Take care of Nuanyi anyway,â said Xiao Si smilingly. âNuanyi is a good girl. Sheâs professional, willing to do hard work, sheâs pretty and generous, never dramatic...â
âIâm sorry. I only care about her acting skills.â Mo Liuxi interrupted him. âSheâs not my girlfriend.â
Xiao Siâs grin froze on his face.
This boy is as annoying and unpleasing as Nian Junting. Why canât he be as adorable as his sister? He thought.
âMaybe you donât know that when your sister was in a difficult situation in An City, Nuanyi was the only one who helped her. Later on, she asked your sister to be her exclusive voice-actress. They are good friends,â Xiao Si hurriedly said.
