Huayu: Nobody understands top celebrities better than me.

Hearing this, Li Xue felt a little ashamed and touched her stomach helplessly.

These past few days, I've been so busy finding topics to chat with Lin Yu that I've been eating a lot more at night. While I'm not exactly out of shape, it looks like my abs are about to disappear!

···

"You work out too?" Lin Yu did some crunches, then turned to look at the video on his phone and was taken aback.

On the other end of the video, Li Xue had somehow changed into a white sports tank top and tight yoga pants.

"Yes! You're right. If you're going to be an actress, you definitely need to maintain a good figure!" Li Xue nodded, looking like she'd been dragged into it.

Lin Yu smiled helplessly, but his attention was immediately drawn to her actions.

Li Xue closed her eyes, stretched out her arms, puffed out her chest and raised her head, revealing her entire body to Lin Yu.

Her flat stomach, with its barely visible abs, was exposed to the air, while her legs were outlined in alluring curves by yoga pants, and her pert, slightly upturned thighs were faintly visible from the side.

Seeing this, Lin Yu just wanted to do a couple more crunches.

···

"Phew, aren't you tired?" Li Xue sat on the ground, breathing slowly, her lungs heaving, large beads of sweat rolling down her white collarbone and into her sports vest.

As Lin Yu watched that scene, a surge of restlessness welled up within him once again.

He's already exceeded his exercise limit today!

"It's alright, not too tiring. By the way, how's it going on your end these past few days? Any roles?" Lin Yu picked up his phone and stood up, but he wasn't going to practice anymore.

If I keep practicing like this, my legs will give way tomorrow!

"Still the same old thing. These people are disgusting. My leader is even subtly hinting at something to me." Li Xue said, curling his lip in disdain.

"If I really wanted to sleep with someone, I could have gone to those assistant directors. Him? He has no money and can't provide any decent resources. Does he really think I'm an easy target?"

After saying that, Li Xue suddenly realized what she meant and looked at Lin Yu somewhat awkwardly: "...Um, I didn't mean to sleep with you."

Then Li Xue felt that her explanation was somewhat superfluous, and her face showed some embarrassment and anxiety.

She added that sentence because she was worried that Lin Yu would misunderstand her!

Lin Yu chuckled and waved his hand, offering a soft reassurance: "I know."

"How's it going on your end? Is the actress beautiful?" Li Xue asked, sounding somewhat wistful.

"She's quite pretty, and has a very outgoing personality, a bit like you." Lin Yu raised an eyebrow, his tone gentle, but he immediately piqued Li Xue's interest.

Hearing this, Li Xue felt even more helpless.

She wasn't a primary school student anymore, and she naturally knew exactly how she felt about Lin Yu.

However, as Lin Yu's career gradually took off, she couldn't help but feel somewhat inferior and withdrawn.

"Oh, by the way, the production team is short of a female role for one of the episodes. I recommended you to the director. Why don't you give it a try?"

Lin Yu's calm voice rang out, but Li Xue was suddenly stunned, as if her heart had been gripped tightly.

"Me? Can you do it? What if you fail and it ruins your relationship with the director?"

Lin Yu smiled warmly: "What are you afraid of? It's just a test. Anyway, it's in Beijing, and it won't cost more than a couple of yuan for transportation. Just take the bus tomorrow or the day after, and call me when you get there."

"Okay...okay then." Li Xue agreed in a low voice, but Lin Yu seemed not to hear her and turned around with a refreshing smile, "Then I'm going to take a shower, I'll hang up now."

Okay, bye-bye~

"beep···"

Hearing the busy tone of the video call ending on her phone, Li Xue gently exhaled.

"Splash~"

In the bathroom, the water flow dispersed the shower gel foam, and a pair of slender, jade-like hands reached out and pulled off the white bath towel.

After drying herself off, Li Xue looked at herself in the mirror and felt a slight dizziness.

After taking a shower, she quickly ran back to her bedroom, then glanced around nervously.

After confirming that everything was normal, she moved her suitcase, revealing a bare wall behind it.

She stretched out her fingernail, carefully pried off a bit of the peeling paint from the crack in the wall, and then stuffed it into her mouth.

As the wall plaster entered her mouth, she squinted her eyes, like a pampered cat inhaling catnip.

···

The next morning.

After getting up, Lin Yu unusually interrupted his daily exercise routine.

After sleeping for two extra hours, Lin Yu, feeling slightly weak in the legs, got into the car.

Lin Yu finally arrived at the film set just before he was late.

"Oh, you're unusually late today." Xiao Yin glanced at the time on her phone, quite surprised.

Yu Yi, who had changed into a leather jacket, walked over in a nonchalant manner: "Seriously, buddy, are you this reckless? I think you can barely stand."

"Get lost, which scene are we filming today?" Lin Yu glanced at Yu Yi helplessly, but quickly changed the subject.

Arguing about this topic is like throwing mud down your pants.

"Chapter 147, I came to the convenience store to find you, to talk about the school chapter," Xiao Yin said, her voice playful.

Lin Yu opened the script, just about to take a look, when he suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder.

"what?"

"Of course it's an interview."

Lin Yu turned his head in confusion following the sound, only to be met with a beautiful figure with a smile on her lips.

"Why are you here?" Lin Yu asked in surprise. The person who came was Peng Xiaoran, who had visited a few days ago.

All things considered, she has probably only been gone for a little over half a month.

"During the last interview, Director Ju asked me if I wanted to try acting. I tried it out, and he asked me to come over in the next couple of days," Peng Xiaoran explained in a relaxed Beijing accent.

Lin Yu nodded in surprise.

To be honest, although Peng Xiaoran hasn't reached her peak of beauty yet, she is definitely a stunning beauty.

I just don't know if they can withstand the makeup artists on set.

After all, the makeup artist for this group is notoriously vicious.

Even a face as magnificent as Lin Yu's could be turned into something like a paper doll in his hands, let alone these female characters.

The most classic one is Xiao Yin's helmet hairstyle.

However, you can't entirely blame the makeup artist; the production team didn't have enough funds, so they could only hire someone at that price.

Therefore, when Lin Yu was filming this drama, unless it was necessary to wear makeup for illness, he usually went without makeup whenever possible.

Ju Xingmao was clearly aware of the power of a makeup artist, so he naturally agreed.

The two chatted idly, neither noticing the two pairs of eyes not far away.

"You said that when that girl arrived at the film set today, his legs went weak. Could something be wrong?"

Yu Yi stroked his beard, turned to Xiao Yin and spoke, his eyes filled with suspicion.

Xiao Yin was taken aback by these words, and a look of suspicion suddenly appeared on her face: "That can't be, they must have only met during the last interview."

Yu Yi frowned: "I don't know, but why would she come all the way here to find this kid? Aren't I more charming than him?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yin was speechless. So this was the uncle's anger at being ignored? And she had even analyzed it seriously!

"Come on, sir, we don't date greasy, middle-aged men with families, okay?! Besides, isn't your beard a bit too long?"

"Damn! Who's greasy? This beard is for the character in the play, okay? It's a sacrifice for art!"
