Chapter 267: Unemployment

Chapter 267

It started as a cheerful conversation between two people, but suddenly it turned into a lively chat among three.

The two clueless gossip agents at the door were a bit confused about the situation. They had been silent for nearly a day, and now it had taken a direct turn?

"Everyone, let's adjust our emotions and start working," a staff member called out.

Only then did the three pick up their scripts and walk to their respective positions. While Xiao Yan was doing Qin Wei's makeup, Li Yao leaned in and asked her in a low voice, "Didn't you say you wanted to keep your distance from Su Yang? How did you end up chatting with him?"

Qin Wei honestly replied, "I didn't want to pay attention to him either, but he said he's willing to be my brother/sister (//?//)."

Li Yao: "?"

...

It was still the morning scene. The lines between the two actors were no longer a concern, but now they had to focus on expressing their emotions. After the recent interaction, they were no longer as restrained as in the beginning. However, when Yao Director asked them to look into each other's eyes with affection, they struggled to hold back their laughter.

"Hahaha..."

Qin Wei burst into laughter and kept apologizing to the director and staff.

And Su Yang did the same. Whenever Qin Wei laughed, he couldn't help but laugh along. The two of them had an infectiously humorous laughter, and inexplicably, the people around them also laughed.

Yao Director was a bit overwhelmed but also wanted to laugh.

The atmosphere on set became inexplicably cheerful, and it lasted for five minutes.

After having a good laugh and calming their emotions, they were ready to continue shooting.

One take, two takes, but they still couldn't achieve the desired effect.

They took a temporary break, and a young girl in a long dress walked in, capturing everyone's attention. It was unexpectedly Shen Qingqing.

"I'm here to visit, sis... Weiwei, how are you?" Shen Qingqing also came in during the break and didn't come empty-handed. She brought snacks for everyone with the help of an assistant.

She greeted Qin Wei upon entering and then walked straight to where the director was.

It seemed they had worked together before. Shen Qingqing exchanged greetings with Yao Director and then took a seat on a nearby chair. It seemed like they were discussing something, and after a while, Shen Qingqing said,

"Let's try it this time. Listen to me, Weiwei, find your own emotions. Su Yang is about to leave. You really like him, and he doesn't know when he'll be back or if he'll even come back. So you're worried about him.

Let's go through it together~"

Yao Director commented, "It's still the same, Qingqing, there's nothing particularly special about this..."

Shen Qingqing ignored Yao Director and looked at the monitor, continuing to talk to Qin Wei, "Mr. Qiao's gold bar that he gave you has been stolen."

After hearing this, Qin Wei's smile faded, and her expression became a bit panicked.

"The man in front of you, he knows the whereabouts of the gold bar, and he can help you find it."

Daniel replied, "Your chest muscles are so strong, I thought you were all skin and bones."

"I look slim with clothes on, but there's flesh when I take them off, you know?" Su Yang said, and he also patted Daniel a few times.

Su Yang became more casual in his conversations with him. Male friendships were sometimes inexplicable; they started off being reserved with each other, then played around, and eventually became friends.

But there was something Daniel had to say: "I still like girls, so don't like me. I don't want a man."

Su Yang smiled and whispered to him, "I feel the same way. Don't worry, I have someone I like, a really wonderful girl."

Daniel felt relieved, saying, "I thought you liked me; just a moment ago, you even hugged my waist."

"Sigh!" Su Yang sighed helplessly.

"If I don't coax her, how could she pay attention to me? As long as she's willing to acknowledge me, being friends is not out of the question!"

...

Qin Wei happily went to the dressing room, while Xiao Yan leaned against the counter, engrossed in her phone. When she saw Qin Wei return, she was more enthusiastic than usual.

"I didn't dare ask you at the studio, but do you think Su Yang is handsome? Isn't he incredibly good-looking! Let me tell you, the scene where you two met on the marble steps was captured and it's currently trending!"

"Oh, it's normal to be photographed outdoors since it's a public place..."

Qin Wei sat on a chair, unconsciously removing her jewelry, and casually asked Xiao Yan,

"Did I receive any criticism?"

Xiao Yan opened the hot search and scrolled through the comments.

"You're being a bit too negative. There's a hot search, and you haven't even looked at it. You handed your social media accounts directly to the PR team and don't manage them yourself. Whenever someone on the team mentions it, you always ask, 'Did I get criticized?' Can't you think of something positive?"

"Oh, then is there anything positive?"

Qin Wei still didn't pay much attention, removing the accessories from her head while complaining,

"Why does the Northern Region's Young Miss have so many accessories..."

"Yes, there is! Both sets of fans know that you two are filming together, and this drama is important to both of you, so the fans haven't started any conflicts! Moreover, even the bystanders see what I see—they think you two are a great match. The drama hasn't even finished yet, and they're already shipping you."

"Oh... um..."

Qin Wei responded with a sound but didn't express any opinion.

"Why are you making that sound? You haven't said yet, do you think Su Yang is handsome or not? Is there a chance between you two?"

"He's handsome, but there's no chance. If either of us starts dating, the other will lose their job."

Qin Wei stood up from the chair, took off her long robe, and handed it to Xiao Yan.

"However, you might lose your job before me. I've already removed my makeup, while you're still there chasing after stars."
