Huayu: Nobody understands top celebrities better than me.

For several days in a row, filming proceeded steadily.

Filming for the "One Night in Beijing" segment, starring Li Yitong, is gradually coming to an end.

Today's filming is finished. The remaining scenes are set in the Republican era, but filming for those won't start until July.

"Okay, click! Yitong, give it a fuller emotional performance! Old Lin did a good job, keep it up!" Ju Xingmao shouted "click!" and the bus stopped.

This car was rented by their film crew through negotiation; it's specifically for filming.

As the bus stopped, Li Yitong was stunned for a long time before she realized that Ju Xingmao was calling her "Yitong".

"Okay, director," Li Yitong replied a beat late, then looked slightly ashamed.

When a man and a woman's safe distance is breached, they will inevitably engage in intimate contact.

However, this is where the problem arises: in this scene, Caiqin shouldn't have shown affection for Xia Dongqing!

Lin Yu took the water from Xu Yan and took a sip.

He pondered for a moment, then inadvertently caught sight of a somewhat lonely figure standing not far away.

Peng Xiaoran!

These days, Li Yitong hasn't sparred with Peng Xiaoran much, since she's already gotten her share of the spoils.

However, the fact that the other party hadn't made any move for a long time made Peng Xiaoran very worried, thinking that the other party was going to hold back something big.

The revenge from Li Yitong never came.

Then, Lin Yu has been busy with his management team these days, and has put these matters out of his mind.

With his agent also in place, Peng Xiaoran no longer needed to bring him water.

So it really had been a while since he had any contact with Peng Xiaoran.

Thinking to himself, Lin Yu narrowed his eyes and walked to Peng Xiaoran's side under everyone's gaze.

Then they started chatting, while Li Yitong sat next to her, touching up her makeup, her eyes wide open as she stared at them.

Xu Yan looked somewhat dazed.

As his agent, after working together for the past few days, she thought she had figured out Lin Yu's interpersonal relationships, but only now did she suddenly realize what was going on.

She doesn't seem to know enough about her boss!

No one knows what Lin Yu and Peng Xiaoran talked about, but soon a smile suddenly appeared on Peng Xiaoran's face.

His hand then rested on Lin Yu's shoulder.

Li Yitong watched from the side, her teeth clenched.

"Old Lin, get ready!" Ju Xingmao watched from the side, secretly wiped Lin Yu's sweat, and then hurriedly called out.

Lin Yu nodded, greeted Peng Xiaoran, and then turned and returned to the filming location.

And then Ju Xingmao shouted "Start!"

Sure enough, Li Yitong's overall demeanor had clearly changed.

The way he seemed to want to get closer but was held back by certain emotions made Ju Xingmao pause, and he became somewhat dazed.

As filming continued, the bus started moving, while Ju Xingmao and the others remained on the first floor of the bus.

"Okay, click!"

With a loud "Crack!" rang out, Li Yitong snapped back to reality, realizing something immediately. She opened her mouth, "I'm sorry..."

"Well done, Yitong, that was great! Pack up the props quickly, let's try to finish filming this scene today!"

Caught off guard by the praise, Li Yitong was visibly stunned for a moment: "I...did I do a great job?"

What did she do? She seemed to be feeling jealous just now. She thought she was going to delay everyone's filming time, but it turned out she made it through?

As she thought to herself, she unconsciously looked at Lin Yu and noticed the half-smile on his lips.

···

Inside Li Yitong's room at the hotel.

"Did you do this on purpose today?" Li Yitong, nestled in Lin Yu's arms, asked curiously.

Lin Yu tilted his head, not denying it: "Your experiential learning method is indeed very convenient for newcomers to get started, but its shortcomings are equally obvious."

Li Yitong was stunned, and looked at Lin Yu seriously. She even forgot to slap away the broad hand that was roaming over her body.

"For example, if you can't get out of character, you're more likely to develop mental health issues, including but not limited to depression."

"Moreover, this school of thought has a fatal flaw in acting: when you play a character, you have to accept his or her behavioral logic. But what if you play a villain? Over time, it will inevitably affect your personality."

Lin Yu's voice was low and deep.

Li Yitong narrowed her alluring cat-like eyes, clearly deep in thought.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

"It's time to get down to business."

"Stop messing around, I have things to do tomorrow."

···

After a good night's sleep, Lin Yu was woken up by a cat-themed alarm clock the next day.

Lin Yu pulled back the covers, still somewhat dazed, as he looked at the girl with a bright smile.

"You're awake?" Li Yitong asked with a smile.

"What's wrong with you?" Lin Yu asked, somewhat puzzled.

"I saw you like this for a while and was worried you were uncomfortable, but you sleep really well, it took you so long to realize it."

···

"No, even a tiger won't eat its own cubs."

After refusing Li Yitong's request for a kiss that morning, Lin Yu silently brushed his teeth and went out to buy breakfast, feeling refreshed.

···

June in the capital is the height of summer. Although there is a slight chill in the air in the morning, it is not a heavy chill for Lin Yu.

He took a walk around the area but didn't choose to jog, since he didn't have any extra energy to expend today.

After circling around twice, Lin Yu stopped at a breakfast stall.

I chose a spot a little further inside and was just about to call the breakfast shop owner to order when I suddenly heard a rather surprised shout.

"Lin Yu?"

Looking up, I saw Peng Xiaoran, the person in charge.

She was wearing a thin white jacket, with no makeup, her hair casually tied up in a bun, and she was carrying a not-so-transparent plastic bag.

"Xiaoran? Good morning, are you buying breakfast too?" Lin Yu was a little surprised, but his attitude remained gentle.

Peng Xiaoran glanced at Lin Yu's outfit briefly and nodded cheerfully: "You go first."

Seeing this, Lin Yu didn't stand on ceremony and readily ordered breakfast for two.

Peng Xiaoran watched from the side with a complicated expression.

She wasn't stupid. Judging from Li Yitong's sweet demeanor these days, and the fact that she often appeared with Lin Yu, she could guess some of the problems.

However, Lin Yu's attitude towards her remained the same as before, neither particularly close nor distant.

This inevitably gave her a strange feeling.

She clearly didn't like Lin Yu very much at first!

But seeing him being intimate with another woman, she could never truly let go of the feeling.

Looking at the man in front of her, Peng Xiaoran's expression was somewhat complicated.

She pursed her lips, her voice strained and hesitant: "Um, are you and Li Xue... Li Yitong a couple?"
