The room fell silent. If one listened carefully, they could hear Lu Zhen’s faint breathing. She slept very obediently and curled up into a ball. Because her body was hot, her fair and tender face was a little red.
Song Jia quietly watched Lu Zhen sleep. There was an unprecedented calmness in his heart. After seeing her, the negative emotions that had tortured him these past few days seemed to have disappeared.
If possible, Song Jia really wished he could stay here and watch over her.
After a while, Song Jia put away the script at the head of the bed. After tidying it up, he placed it on the desk.
He suddenly saw some books on the desk. Song Jia flipped through them and realized that these books seemed to be high school textbooks.
Perhaps because it had been flipped through often, the corners of the pages were rolled up. There were many notes in the book with different colors of water pen. There were also some complaints in the blank section— “I don’t understand it at all! Why is it so difficult?!”
“I don’t want to study anymore! No, if I don’t study today, I’ll become trash tomorrow. Best of luck!”
“There’s no hurdle that can’t be overcome. The darker the sky, the brighter the stars. All our efforts will definitely not be in vain!”
Was she learning high school knowledge? Looking at these ridicules and self-encouragement sentences, Song Jia felt a little amused. At the same time, he was touched.
Song Jia knew very well how many tasks Lu Zhen usually had. The company was very strict with the time management of celebrities. Sometimes, she didn’t even have enough time to rest, but she took time out of her busy schedule to study.
What was she trying to do?
Song Jia put down his textbook and turned to look at Lu Zhen, who was sleeping soundly.
Only then did he realize that he did not know her that well. There were still many thoughts she had that he did not know.
When Lu Zhen woke up, she felt that her body had almost no strength. She rubbed her eyes and looked out the window.
It was already dark. She got up from the bed. Her head was still a little dizzy, but her body temperature had returned to normal.
After walking out of the bedroom, the fragrance of food wafted in the air.
Xiaoxiao went to buy fresh pig bones to make soup for her. Lu Zhen drank two bowls of soup and touched her slightly bloated stomach. She asked, “Xiaoxiao, did Song Jia leave when you came back?”
Xiaoxiao nodded and looked at Lu Zhen curiously. “Sister Zhenzhen, what did you two talk about?”
“Nothing much. I was a little dizzy and sleepy at the time, so I fell asleep.”
“Sister Zhenzhen, why do I feel that President Song has become more enthusiastic about you these few days? Could it be because of the scandal between the two of you?” Xiaoxiao’s eyes were bright and her tone was a little excited.
As Lu Zhen’s personal assistant, Xiaoxiao had told her that Song Jia was the man who appeared in her room that night of the live-stream. However, Lu Zhen had also explained that the reason why Song Jia suddenly appeared that day was because he was drunk.
“What do you mean by I’m in a scandal with him? My current boyfriend is an unknown man outside the industry, not him,” Lu Zhen corrected solemnly.
She could not spout nonsense. How could she dare to have a scandal with her boss?
Xiaoxiao stuck out her tongue and held her chin as she sighed. “But President Song is indeed an outstanding man. He’s handsome and rich. Such a person is the ideal lover for all women, right?”
Lu Zhen didn’t take it to heart. “Why do young people think about men all day?
You might as well think about how to earn money and become outstanding. Men are unreliable.”
After resting for half a day, Lu Zhen’s physical condition was much better. The next morning, she had to attend the wrap party of the movie ’99 Love Letters’ and had an entertainment interview in the afternoon.
After the wrap-up banquet of “99 Love Letters”, there was also a photo and interview segment. However, because Director Jiang Wen had promised Pan
Miao’s company that he would not announce the news of Lu Zhen acting as the “back-view goddess” before the movie was broadcast, Lu Zhen could not appear in front of the media.
When they arrived at the gathering, the other members of the production team smiled politely at Lu Zhen when they saw her.
There were also a few actors who sized her up. It was probably because Lu Zhen had announced her relationship a few days ago that everyone was very surprised.
Pan Miao also came to the wrap party today. She was sitting with the male lead, Hao Wen.
Lu Zhen was originally just an insignificant supporting role, but probably because she was too famous now, the rest of the production team was too embarrassed to let her sit back. In the end, Lu Zhen was pushed to sit beside Hao Wen.
When Pan Miao saw Lu Zhen sitting beside Hao Wen, the smile on her face became a little unnatural. In fact, Pan Miao also knew very well that after the movie was released, Lu Zhen and herself would probably be compared by the audience..
