Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 49. Don't cry.
"Zhang Ruonan?"

Lin Shaobai turned around in disbelief.

He never expected that Zhang Ruonan would hug him.

The most important thing is still in the lounge.

At this moment, Zhang Ruonan's face was pressed tightly against Lin Shaobai's back; she really liked Lin Shaobai.

It's the kind of physical attraction; I like being close to him, hugging him, smelling his scent, and feeling his warmth.

Unfortunately, the movie didn't have a plot that gave her that opportunity.

Lin Shaobai's good looks are already captivating, not to mention his constant help to Zhang Ruonan.

It's like the buffs are stacked to the max.

"Teacher Lin, thank you, thank you for helping me."

"It's nothing, it's a small matter."

"Lin Shaobai, actually I—"

"Boss, I've brought back the roast chicken!!"

Upon hearing the door behind him open, Zhang Ruonan left Lin Shaobai as if she were a rocket launcher.

This might be the fastest she's ever done in her life.

So much so that when Assistant Liu opened the door to the lounge, the scene she saw was two people standing there like pillars.

Although the scene was strange, he couldn't tell what had happened before.

"Hey? Zhang Ruonan?" Assistant Xiao Liu smiled warmly at Zhang Ruonan's face. "You've come to see our boss?"

Zhang Ruonan nodded shyly.

She wondered what would happen if Lin Shaobai told others what had just happened.

How embarrassing!

Girls throwing themselves into your arms or something...

She's even older than him!

Lin Shaobai glanced at Zhang Ruonan, and after a while, explained to Xiao Liu, "She came to me to go over the script. We have quite a few scenes together."

Zhang Ruonan: "Hmm?"

Lin Shaobai smiled slightly: "Right?"

"Mmm, mmm." Zhang Ruonan nodded much faster.

She breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed Lin Shaobai hadn't said those words aloud.

After Lin Shaobai left the lounge, Zhang Ruonan cautiously followed.

She kept her head down and didn't look ahead, which resulted in her bumping into Lin Shaobai's back.

"I'm so sorry. I wasn't looking where I was going. I'm so sorry."

Zhang Ruonan quickly apologized.

Right now, she exudes a humble and timid demeanor from head to toe.

It might be related to her family background from childhood, which shaped her personality.

Such people are very starved for love, so they can remember even the smallest kindness from others for a long time.

Lin Shaobai turned his head and said gently, "It's okay." After saying that, he handed the roast chicken that his assistant, Xiao Liu, had bought to Zhang Ruonan.

Xiao Liu: ? ? ? ? ?

Zhang Ruonan was visibly happy: "This..."

Lin Shaobai: "It was for you. I heard you say you were hungry back then."

Assistant Xiao Liu was a little reluctant: "But boss, you haven't eaten either."

As Lin Shaobai's assistant, Xiao Liu is naturally more concerned about his boss.

Whether Zhang Ruonan was hungry or not had nothing to do with him.

"I'll just buy another one later," Lin Shaobai said, turning to Zhang Ruonan. "I'm leaving now, bye-bye."

"See you."

Zhang Ruonan's eyes were full of tenderness.

Now, in her heart, if she can see Lin Shaobai every day, then all the grievances she suffered before are nothing.

She knew she had no connections and wasn't a college graduate, so it was normal for her to be looked down upon and bullied in this industry.

She just didn't expect to meet someone who could help her so soon.

Although it was only a small help, it still made her very happy.

"Honestly. He's clearly younger than me, so how come he seems so reliable?"

Zhang Ruonan shyly covered her mouth, her face flushed. ...

……

The next day
Lin Shaobai continued filming with Zhang Ruonan.

The main story revolves around Gu Senxiang, played by Zhang Ruonan, who suffers from pollen allergy, resulting in a swollen and red face with a rash. Qi Ming, the male lead played by Lin Shaobai, accompanies her to the hospital.

Lin Shaobai was holding flowers in his arms, and Zhang Ruonan was sitting next to him.

The actor playing the doctor said to Zhang Ruonan, "You have a pollen allergy. You have a history of allergies, right? You should have known about it when you were a child."

Zhang Ruonan's current makeup is also an allergy makeup look, and she is looking down with her head down, looking very pitiful.

Upon hearing this, Lin Shaobai immediately hid the flower behind his back.

Doctor: "In the future, try to avoid places with lots of flowers, plants, and trees. I'll prescribe some medicine for you first."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Ruonan raised her head, blinked her big eyes, and looked pitifully at Lin Shaobai.

Lin Shaobai looked at her, feeling a pang of sympathy.

Doctor: "You should avoid eating raw, cold, spicy, or irritating foods recently."

"Okay! Cut!!!"

The director, Xiao Si, standing furthest away, was particularly satisfied.

It's common knowledge that the TV dramas or movies directed by Guo Jingming have terrible plots, but he manages to make the characters look exceptionally good.

He always manages to find something beautiful about an actor, and then gradually magnifies that small beauty.

The simplest example is Lu Yuxiao.

This actress was exceptionally beautiful in Guo Jingming's dramas, gaining countless fans, but after leaving his dramas, she was ridiculed by netizens for being plain.

Actually, it doesn't quite reach the level of being average, but it's definitely not as good-looking as it was in Guo Jingming's dramas.

A similar example is the male and female leads of "Goodbye My Princess," Peng Xiaoran and Chen Xingxu, who are both handsome and beautiful in the drama.

Director Li Mu really filmed them beautifully.

Later, I filmed many more, but they certainly didn't have the same charm as before.

Lin Shaobai turned his head and couldn't help but laugh when he saw Zhang Ruonan's two big red cheeks.

This makeup is hilarious, it even has freckles on it.

Seeing Lin Shaobai's expression, Zhang Ruonan felt a little embarrassed and covered her face with her black hair: "Why are you laughing at me..."

"This pollen allergy makeup is quite interesting, huh?"

"Oh, stop looking. It's embarrassing to watch."

After Zhang Ruonan finished speaking, she noticed that Lin Shaobai was still watching, so she simply turned her back to him.

Lin Shaobai approached her again, looking rather sullen.

"It's not bad-looking at all; it's still very beautiful."

"is it?"

Zhang Ruonan loosened her hair and mustered her courage to ask, "Do you think I'm good-looking?"

Lin Shaobai: "Hmm. Don't you think so?"

"Actually, there are plenty of people with looks like me. I'm not that good-looking."

"Where can you find them in abundance?"

"No, it's just... um..."

Zhang Ruonan lacked confidence.

After all, she wasn't raised with love, so it's normal for her to be insecure and sensitive.

So Lin Shaobai is truly a ray of light for her.

Right now, she wants to make the most of this light.

Lin Shaobai, seeing Zhang Ruonan with her head down, raised his hands and pressed them on her shoulders to encourage her: "I think you're very beautiful, so you should have confidence in yourself. The director must have chosen you because you have something special. Gu Senxiang is a beautiful and gentle female academic genius, and you look exactly like Gu Senxiang. Moreover, you are very talented in acting, you're amazing."

Zhang Ruonan felt incredibly warm inside upon hearing these words.

My eyes gradually warmed up, and just as I felt tears welling up, I suddenly looked up!
She was afraid that it would affect her makeup and make the makeup artist work even harder.

Lin Shaobai was starting to panic.

"Hey...why are you crying?"

She didn't say anything, so why did she start crying?!
Having never received much love from her family growing up, Zhang Ruonan was really struggling to hold back her emotions.

Even the slightest bit of gentle encouragement moved her deeply.

Thank you so much for reading and voting! I've successfully secured a second round of recommendations. I hope you'll continue reading and supporting me next Tuesday. This is my first time writing a Chinese entertainment novel, so please forgive any shortcomings.
