The director and photographer were frantically directing and instructing the production crew on how to set up.
There was also a number of cats and dogs that would be featured along with the artists later. All of them had been brought over from Angelâs Shelter.
Gu Xinhan, who had arrived, was surrounded by the excited animals. The venue was lively and busy.
âSister Han!â
âShuya, youâre here!â Gu Xinhan smiled and greeted Lin Shuya as she held a kitten in her hands.
Gu Xinhanâs looks didnât particularly shine amidst other actresses, but she appealed to the public because of her gentle aura and approachability.
The kitten, which was a little playful, struggled by thrashing its paws.
âOuch!â Gu Xinhan cried out in pain when she saw the red marks on her arm.
The director and crew members hurried over anxiously. âAre you alright? What happened? Did you get hurt?â
âWhat is wrong with this kitten? Itâs too fierce! Why didnât you choose a tame one?â
Lin Shuya scuttled forward. âSister Han, are you okay?â
Gu Xinhan quickly quipped, âIâm fine! Itâs not a big deal. Donât worry! Donât blame the kitten. Itâs my fault for frightening it.â
âSister Han, youâre so gentle.â Lin Shuya beamed at her.
Gu Xinhan chuckled and replied, âItâs because they are so cute. I guess everyone would be gentle around them.â
Lin Shuyaâs manager whispered in her ear. âNo wonder Gu Xinhan ended up being the charity angel last year. She really maintains her persona well!â
âHer persona? What do you mean?â Lin Shuya appeared confused.
Her manager said in a hushed whisper, âShuya, donât tell me you really think this is the real Gu Xinhan? Youâre the only one naive enough to believe that.
Anyone who can attain a certain status and reputation canât be simple. Unlike you, she isnât doing charity work because she loves it. Itâs for fame.
You donât know this, as it happened before you debuted. A few years ago, she was embroiled in an ugly scandal. Later on, she slowly repaired her reputation by doing charity work. Eventually, she ended up with the title.â
âBut Sister Han seems to like little animals...â Lin Shuya looked puzzled.
Her manager looked at her helplessly. âNo wonder Chairman Lin is worried about you. He said that youâre too naive and I have to watch out for you.â
Lin Shuya wiped away any trace of shrewdness in her eyes and blinked innocently.
Filming commenced shortly.
Getting the little animals to cooperate wasnât easy, so filming didnât go as smoothly as planned. Some were frolicking around, while the rest pranced around the venue.
However, thanks to Gu Xinhan and Lin Shuyaâs patience and cooperation, filming went well.
After a long day of filming, the job was completed.
âOkay! Done! Both of you have worked hard. Well done!â
âDirector, thank you! Everyone has worked hard!â
After filming ended, the crew members began to pack up.
âGu Xinhan is so gentle! A few of the animals almost scratched her, but she didnât even lose her temper!â
âYeah! Lin Shuya did not either! She is so patient!â
âNo wonder they are charity angels. They have beautiful, kind hearts!â
âBetween the two of them, I like Lin Shuya more. Gu Xinhan does seem a little pretentious, but Lin Shuya is different. She has been involved in charity since way before she became an actress! She really likes animals and loves to contribute to charity!â
