HuaYu14: Female celebrities are going too fast.

Liu Tao has been on set for a month now, and for him, this month has been quite boring.

Every day was just rehearsing, rehearsing, going over the lines.

There was only one young male actor under 30 in the crew, and he wasn't particularly good-looking, so she really couldn't muster any interest in him.

Until today, she heard that a new live streamer was coming.

So I specifically canceled today's rehearsal and rushed to the audition room.

The result did not disappoint her. Liu Tao looked at Zhou Xun standing in front of him, crossed his legs, and bit his lip.

Are all the new male actors these days this handsome? They look so... good-looking.

Today, Liu Tao wore a wrap-style slit dress, revealing her snow-white legs crossed together.

It seems she wore it specifically for Zhou Xun.

Zhou Xun only glanced at it briefly before looking away.

"Hello Director Kong, I'm Zhou Xun."

"Hmm, have a seat." Kong Shen, wearing glasses, flipped through the documents in his hand. "You acted in 'God of War' and 'Green Fox Hill' before?"

"Filming for 'Green Fox Hill' just wrapped up yesterday," Zhou Xun answered honestly.

"What's your opinion of Ying Qin?" Kong Shen asked.

"The biggest problem with this character isn't his dullness..."

As Kong Shen listened to Zhou Xun's understanding of the character, he nodded to himself. This newcomer was indeed quite something.

"Can I try a section?"

Zhou Xun nodded.

Kong Shen turned to look at Liu Tao behind him: "Teacher Liu, could you please rehearse with this newcomer?"

"Okay," Liu Tao readily agreed.

The scene the two rehearsed involved Ying Qin breaking up with Qiu Yingying because she wasn't a virgin, and then revealing his true feelings under Andy's questioning.

To be honest, if this were written in a certain book, he would be dragged to the execution ground and beheaded.

"Begin," Kong Shen called out, and the two officially started.

Liu Tao didn't do anything too outrageous in front of the director.

At least she didn't stretch her skirt any further; she just looked at him with alluring eyes.

Zhou Xun pretended to be an innocent young boy, and his face did not show any inappropriate expression.

"Alright, that's enough." After the performance, Kong Shen closed the documents in his hand. "You can go back now. You'll officially join the crew tomorrow."

"I'll draft the contract and give it to you tomorrow."

Since her whirlwind marriage after only 20 days, rumors have been circulating about her having ambiguous relationships with young male actors on set, implying that they were involved in prostitution.

Now it seems these rumors aren't entirely unfounded!

Sure enough, as soon as Zhou Xun left the audition room, Liu Tao followed him out.

Before the two could exchange a single word, Liu Tao delivered a world-class dunk.

Fortunately, Zhou Xun reacted quickly and didn't let her lie in his arms.

"Teacher Liu, are you alright?" Zhou Xun asked, pretending to be concerned, as he put his hand on her shoulder.

"It's nothing, I just slipped," Liu Tao said, reaching out to touch Zhou Xun's hand.

Zhou Xun dodged again, said "Teacher Liu, please have some self-respect," and left.

Watching his departing figure, Liu Tao's lips curled into a meaningful smile.

He became even more interested in Zhou Xun; he felt a sense of accomplishment only after winning over a young boy like him.

Zhou Xun did not go to the hotel arranged by the film crew, but returned to the house he had set up in Shanghai.

He first took a picture and then sent it to Naza.

Naza replied instantly: [You're back in Shanghai?]

[Hmm.] Zhou Xun lay on the sofa. [The project for "Green Fox" has finished, and I've found a new film crew in Shanghai.]

[I don't have many scenes, and I didn't want to stay in a hotel, so I moved here. What about you?]

Does this mean you don't want to stay in a hotel? Staying in my house means you miss me, right? What's there to be embarrassed about?

Naza deleted "Ready to go to the film set" from her keyboard and replaced it with:

[I've arrived at the film set.]

[Alright then.] Zhou Xun replied with a dejected expression.

Nazar: [I have something to do, I have to go now. Be good at home by yourself.]

After replying to Naza's message, Zhou Xun began cleaning the room.

Actually, there's no need to clean. Naza has arranged for people to come and clean regularly and replenish the necessities.

He quickly packed his luggage, then lay down on the sofa with [JieJieJie] in his arms, and didn't wake up until the sun went down.

【Ding! 】

Zhou Xun took out his phone and glanced at it; it was from the person with the hair tied up.

Are you home?

Zhou Xun: [Yeah, I'm here. Getting ready to go out for dinner, what's up?]

Naza replied instantly: [It's nothing, I was just asking. Go eat now.]

Zhou Xun put away his phone and went out to find something to eat.

He remembered that there was an underground food street near Jing'an Temple subway station, so he decided to go and check it out.

The food street was bustling with activity.

Besides tourists from other places, there were also some Taobao models, with handsome men and beautiful women everywhere.

Zhou Xun finally stopped in front of a barbecue stall. It wasn't that there were many people there; on the contrary, there were few people and there was room to sit.

He ordered a few things casually, and then sat there quietly waiting.

……

On the food street near Jing'an Temple, Bai Mengyan, who had finished a day of filming, was strolling around with her best friend, Hehe.

Hehe was holding only a grilled sausage in her hand when she suddenly caught sight of Zhou Xun at the barbecue stall and nudged Bai Mengyan with her elbow:

"Look, look, it's a handsome guy."

"He is quite handsome."

Bai Mengyan glanced at it and admitted it.

"Just 'pretty handsome'?" Hehe's eyes widened. "Bai Mengyan, are you even a woman? You're not even interested in a guy this good-looking?"

"What's the use of being attracted? They don't even know me." Bai Mengyan smiled, linking arms with Hehe as they walked forward.

"Let's go, there's plenty of food ahead."

"No, Bai Mengyan, I want to eat barbecue today. I think that place looks good."

Hehe tugged at Bai Mengyan, "Hurry up, if we don't go now, there won't be any seats left."

"Fine, fine!" Bai Mengyan lost her temper; after all, Hehe was her best friend.

The barbecue stall where Zhou Xun was originally only occupied by him.

But now all six or seven small tables are full, and of course, they are all occupied by girls.

The barbecue stall owner grinned from ear to ear, and he readily gave Zhou Xun the meal for free.

They also gave us ten skewers of lamb and two extra-large kidney skewers.

The only request is that Zhou Xun stay here a little longer.

By the time Bai Mengyan and her friends finished ordering, there were no empty tables left.

The stall owner led the two people to a table.

There were only two people at this table, plus Bai Mengyan, which was just right. The stall owner smiled ingratiatingly and said:

"Would you two mind sharing a table?"

The girl turned her gaze away from Zhou Xun, looked at Bai Mengyan, and refused without hesitation:

"Sorry, I don't like sharing a table with other people."

Women are unlike men. Men will share a beautiful woman with their best buddies, while women will quietly enjoy a handsome man all by themselves.

"Look, how about I bring you two more skewers of lamb?" the stall owner persuaded. "All the other tables are full, please help me out."

At this point, the woman's temper flared up: "I told you, I don't like sharing tables with others, are you deaf?"

The stall owner's smile froze.

"It's alright, we can eat after everyone else leaves," Bai Mengyan said to the stall owner.

"Ugly people always cause trouble." Hehe glanced away, rolled her eyes, and muttered under her breath.

"Hey, what are you saying? Who are you calling ugly?"

The girl got up to confront Hehe and demand an explanation, causing a bit of a commotion.

"Sit here, I still have a seat," Zhou Xun said calmly, who had been looking down at his phone.
