“Sister Zhenzhen, why are you looking so serious?” Xiaoxiao looked at Lu Zhen uneasily. Lu Zhen was clearly not even 20 years old this year. Why did she look so tired just now?
Lu Zhen forced a smile. “It’s fine. I’m just a little tired.”
“Then Sister Zhenzhen, why don’t you rest for a while? I’ll wake you up in advance to prepare before filming tonight.”
Lu Zhen nodded. Xiaoxiao lit a very gentle incense stick in the small incense burner, then closed the door and went out.
Lu Zhen lay in bed and stared at the ceiling in a daze. Scenes of her going out to play with Song Jia surfaced in her mind.
If she hadn’t experienced those things in her previous life, if she wasn’t a famous celebrity, if she was just an ordinary girl in university, perhaps she wouldn’t be able to help but be moved by someone like Song Jia.
He had the unique temperament of a mature man and a young man. He was also gentle and considerate. His patience and meticulousness could easily move a woman’s heart.
Lu Zhen was no exception. So she sensed danger. She was beginning to want to escape. She’d already had her heart broken once. She didn’t dare gamble in love again, so she might as well not start.
It was good for her to be alone now. She didn’t have to give up half her heart for another person, nor did she have to take care of another person’s emotions.
So what if she was tempted? She had already died once. To her, love was impossible to grasp. The only thing she could grasp was her career and her life. Song Jia didn’t stay in the film base for more than three days. He left on the morning of the third day. When Lu Zhen received his message, he was already at the airport.
“I have something to do at the office. I’m already at the airport. Are you up?
Remember to eat breakfast.”
In the past, Lu Zhen might not have thought too much about it. But now, no matter how she looked at it, she felt that it was ambiguous. This was simply like a husband sending a message to his wife!
Lu Zhen took a deep breath and typed, “Why didn’t you tell me in advance?”
“I don’t want to delay your work. I’m afraid you’ll send me off if you find out.” After sending the message, Song Jia looked at the dialog box in a daze.
He had something on at the office. Before he left, he wanted to see her, but he was afraid of disturbing her rest. Later, he thought about it and decided not to go, in case he could not bear to leave again.
If only every day could be like yesterday. The two of them could go out together on a sunny day, watch a wonderful movie, and have a meal together when they got back. Unlike now, where they barely had time to see each other.
“I’m boarding.” Before Lu Zhen could think of a reply, Song Jia was about to board the plane.
“Alright, have a safe trip,” Lu Zhen replied politely.
After Song Jia left, Lu Zhen felt much more relaxed. She stopped thinking about her relationship and focused on filming.
However, she still occasionally thought of the day they went out together. The azure sky and fluffy white clouds, and the man’s broad and firm back. His voice was carried to her ears by the wind— “Don’t be afraid. Trust me.”
Halfway through filming at the film studio, it suddenly snowed in Dan City in the north. Director Ding Zhi decided to go to Dan City at the last minute to film a portion of the snow scene.
Although it was not impossible to create a snow scene, a perfectionist like Director Ding Zhi still wanted to film in a real environment. The crew quickly rushed to Dan City. After getting off the airport, Xiaoxiao was so cold that she shivered. “It’s already spring, why is it still so cold in the north!”
Lu Zhen wrapped her down jacket tightly. “It’ll snow in June. What’s so surprising about that?”
After arriving at Dan City, the production team began to build the venue and prepare the props. The next day before dawn, Lu Zhen arrived at the set. The makeup artist untied Lu Zhen’s smooth hair and used a special method to tidy her hair into a mess. Then, she dirtied Lu Zhen’s fair face.
The beautiful Yue Qin from a few days ago suddenly became a pitiful girl as thin as a little beggar.
This scene was about Yue Qin’s tragic experience of almost becoming a prostitute before she became an actress.
Due to the chaos of the war, Yue Qin lost her family overnight and lived alone on the streets. After she was kidnapped by human traffickers, they wanted to sell her to the brothel madam.
On this day, a blizzard fell from the sky. The girl who had been locked up in the woodshed by the brothel madam sneaked out alone when the guards were not paying attention..
