“Come stay with me, I’ll look after you.”

Sang Wan Ci’s words brushed by Lu Zhi Wei’s ears with the breeze.

Lu Zhi Wei didn’t dare to believe her ears.

What did she just say……?

Stay with her, she’ll take care of me?

Was this…… a joke?

While Lu Zhi Wei was lost in her thoughts, the wounds on her fingers were exposed to the air.

Sang Wan Ci helped her to wipe away the dust on her palm as she slowly applied the medicine.

As the medicine seeped into the wound, so did the pain.

Lu Zhi Wei immediately came back to her senses, her face contorting in pain as she forgot her thoughts.

“Ouch ——”

Although it was just a bit of pain, it was magnified a thousand times to her.

If not for the fact that there were so many people on set, she would really be crying out!

Hearing her voice, Sang Wan Ci looked at her, then gently blew air on the wound, as if wanting to blow away the pain.

“It hurts? Then I’ll be gentler.”

Lu Zhi Wei carefully moved her other hand: “It hurts when the medicine goes in, it’s not your fault.”

With how lightly Sang Wan Ci was moving, it would be the air applying medicine for her if it was any gentler!

Sang Wan Ci replied: “Understood, then I’ll be faster, bear with it.”

Lu Zhi Wei replied pitifully: “Okay……”

She promised to bear with it, she might as well turn her head to not even look at it.

At the same time, she was consoling herself in her heart.

—— If you can’t see it, it doesn’t exist. If it doesn’t exist, then it doesn’t hurt!!

Sang Wan Ci took a quick glance at her side profile, smiling as she thought about that quiet “okay”.

Her heart hurt for her, but she also thought she was too cute.

“If you’re so scared of pain, why weren’t you more careful when you were filming just now?”

Sang Wan Ci never thought that Lu Zhi Wei would rub her fingers raw.

She thought that someone as scared of pain as Lu Zhi Wei would cherish her body and be careful.

Today clearly proved she was wrong.

Lu Zhi Wei’s attention was taken away from the pain, and her expression softened.

Her voice was light but serious: “I got too into character, and didn’t think too much.”

She was an actress. When she was in character, her first thought was to consider how to properly bring out the character’s emotions and not how to protect herself.

Meng Lian Yu once said that once you get into character, the actor has to let the role be more important than themselves, or the scene would be a no-go.

Actors needed to portray different roles and characters, and they were living beings.

So how could they be constantly thinking of themselves while they were portraying other living beings?

It’s not as if they’re portraying themselves.

At this moment between life and death, would the little junior sister still be thinking of how to keep herself pretty and clean, her fingers pristine?

Of course not.

She wanted to live, so she struggled and grabbed whatever she could on the ground.

Even if she tore open her fingers, she didn’t mind, as long as she could live.

Reaching that state, Lu Zhi Wei naturally would forget about the fact she was scared of pain.

She was just doing what an actor should.

She lowered her head to look at her bandaged fingers. Remembering Guo Hui’s look of satisfaction, her heart also felt satisfied.

“As long as the result is good, it’s not wasted.”

Sang Wan Ci looked at her.

In that scene, she thought Lu Zhi Wei acted very well.

For something that only needed 70%, Lu Zhi Wei managed to give it full marks.

Even Guo Hui was surprised, not daring to interrupt Lu Zhi Wei’s performance.

This was when Lu Zhi Wei was filled with energy.

If it was disrupted, it might not appear again.

But Sang Wan Ci believed it would appear again.

Because it was Lu Zhi Wei.

Lu Zhi Wei’s acting had already let her and the little junior sister become one.

Her happiness and sadness were the little junior sister’s happiness and sadness.

They could feel the little junior sister’s pain and resentment through her.

And Lu Zhi Wei’s acting was only improving every second.

She would only be better from here on out.

“You did very well.” Sang Wan Ci said. “Many people were crying along with you on set, and the scriptwriter said you acted well too.”

Lu Zhi Wei paused, exclaiming in surprise: “Really?!”

When she was acting, she was wholly focused. At most, she would be able to notice Guo Hui’s direction and the movement of the cameras.

The other employees weren’t in the field of concentration, so she wouldn’t know what happened.

“Mm, really.”

Lu Zhi Wei was overjoyed, becoming as bright as a flower.

“Then my injury is worth it!”

She did it, she controlled the emotions of the scene!

She made everybody cry!

—— The little junior sister was so pitiful, everybody better cry!

Sang Wan Ci applied more medicine.

Lu Zhi Wei immediately sucked in another mouthful of air: “Ouch ——”

She immediately calmed down.

No more silliness, it really hurts……

Sang Wan Ci smiled.

“Zhi Wei.” Please read at jiulian lian . wordpress . com

Lu Zhi Wei froze.

It was the first time she heard Sang Wan Ci call her that.

It wasn’t strange, it sounded quite nice.

“What’s wrong?” She asked.

Sang Wan Ci carefully bandaged the last finger.

Then she gently held the back of her hand as her fingertips brushed against her skin.

As if she was consoling her, but also like she was encouraging her.

“The result waiting for you in the future definitely won’t let down your effort and sacrifice.”

Maybe it was this show, or maybe it was the next. She believed Lu Zhi Wei would definitely be seen. She believed Lu Zhi Wei would stand in the brightest spot to be liked by many more people.

Good actors wouldn’t be let down.

Even children standing in the darkness would let out their light.

Lu Zhi Wei looked up slowly: “Mm.”

She believed it too.

And she still had the male protagonist halo, there would always be one show that would make her popular!

“That’s settled then.” Sang Wan Ci capped the medicine and said.

Lu Zhi Wei didn’t follow her train of thought: “Ah? What’s settled?”

Sang Wan Ci turned to look at her seriously: “You’ll come stay with me, I’ll look after you.”

Lu Zhi Wei: “???”

You’re actually serious???

Sang Wan Ci continued: “I’m the best person to look after you now.”

Lu Zhi Wei: “?”

How are you the best person??

“The friends you’re close to, it’s just me and Ying Xi Ze, right?”

“Right.”

“Will you let Ying Xi Ze come?”

“No.” Please read at jiulian lian . wordpress . com

“Will you get your family or your manager to come?”

“No……”

Sang Wan Ci concluded: “So I should be the one to look after you.”

Lu Zhi Wei opened her mouth, pausing for a while before saying: “…… Wan Ci, you need to work too.”

She wasn’t planning to ask anybody to accompany her.

Because she felt like in their hearts, she wasn’t at the level to ask them to travel to come take care of her.

Her parents didn’t care about her.

Wen Yao had other jobs to do.

And she wasn’t a kid anymore, she could take care of herself.

It was just her fingers being injured. She was on break for a while anyway, she could just be more careful when using her hands.

“I have work, but I need to eat and sleep too.”

Sang Wan Ci’s reply was clear.

Lu Zhi Wei still felt like it was too much trouble: “Wan Ci, I can take care of myself, really.”

Sang Wan Ci looked at her calmly, then handed the bottle of medicine to her: “Try opening the cap.”

Lu Zhi Wei: “……”

…… You’re purposely making things difficult for me!

Sang Wan Ci knew she couldn’t.

She was afraid of pain, even a little bit. Applying medicine was like physical punishment to her.

It was precisely because she knew this, that she insisted on taking care of her.

She couldn’t let her battle her pain alone in the room, could she?

“Don’t refuse me, jiejie.”

Sang Wan Ci used her killing move again.

Lu Zhi Wei: “……”

It’s happening again.

She just knew that Lu Zhi Wei couldn’t resist those words!

Seeing that Lu Zhi Wei didn’t say anything after that, Sang Wan Ci smiled.

She reached out and squeezed Lu Zhi Wei’s shoulder.

“One more person staying with me is good too. We can eat together and chat more, rehearse our scenes. It won’t be boring.

“Don’t feel like you’re bothering me. You need to remember what I said, you’re someone who has support.”

She cared because they were friends.

Only friends would remember that Lu Zhi Wei was deathly afraid of pain.

Refusing her would be saying they’re not close.

Lu Zhi Wei considered it in silence.

Almost as if the system felt she was being too indecisive, it pushed a new mission.

【Mission issued: Agree to the female lead Sang Wan Ci’s request to live together.

【Time limit: Three minutes.】

Lu Zhi Wei: “……”

This outrageous system, you’re obviously on the female lead’s side!

Since she had already been convinced, and the system had now thrown her a mission, there was naturally no more opposition.

She looked at Sang Wan Ci with warm eyes: “Sincere hospitality is hard to come by, then I’ll go over and intrude on our Teacher Sang for a period of time.”

“Mm,” Sang Wan Ci smiled, “I welcome Teacher Lu’s intrusion.”

【System judgement: Successfully agreed to cohabitation.

【Mission point +1.

【Please work hard, host.】

Lu Zhi Wei smiled, her heart warm.

This was what it felt like to have someone supporting her?

How nice……

Sang Wan Ci’s room was on the upper levels of the hotel.

It was a luxurious penthouse with a living room, a kitchen, a closet and all that.

The space was bright and airy, elegant and detailed.

The big bed was soft and comfortable, you could roll around a few times on it.

Comparing Lu Zhi Wei’s room to this, it was absolutely ordinary.

She didn’t have any negative feelings though.

Sang Wan Ci had the qualifications to enjoy the best. No matter whether it was based on her female lead role, or her identity as a rich heiress.

Sang Wan Ci still had scenes to shoot, so she had to stay on the set.

So her assistant, Xiao Qiu[1] was the one responsible to help Lu Zhi Wei move.

Xiao Qiu was fair-skinned, with a bit of plumpness on her face.

She had gotten into the industry once she graduated, and it had been about a year or so.

She was smart and witty, and capable to boot. Zhang Xian Rui had nothing but praise for her.

When Sang Wan Ci entered Fenghe Entertainment, Xiao Qiu had been assigned to her by Zhang Xian Rui.

Ever since then, she had been Sang Wan Ci’s assistant and the two were on good terms.

Lu Zhi Wei wasn’t as familiar with Xiao Qiu.

The two of them had only seen each other occasionally and greeted each other.

So now, the two of them were standing around awkwardly.

“You’re coming over to stay?” Xiao Qiu spoke first.

“Mm……” Lu Zhi Wei was a little embarrassed.

She lifted a hand, wanting to scratch her head, then remembering she had a wound, she changed it to using her hand to rub her head.

This was Sang Wan Ci’s decision, Zhang Xian Rui said there was no problem too, so Xiao Qiu naturally had nothing to say.

She helped Lu Zhi Wei put her luggage away and poured her a cup of water. Looking at her watch, she asked: “Do you…… need me to accompany you? Or do you want to be alone?”

Lu Zhi Wei sat down carefully on the sofa: “Ah, you don’t have to accompany me, I can be alone.

“That’s right, don’t you need to go accompany Wan Ci on set? Go ahead.”

Xiao Qiu nodded, then wrote her number down for her: “Call me if there’s anything, I’ll reply quickly.

“Oh, and.”

She paused for a while and thought: “Xiao Sang’s scenes will be done at night, she asked you to wait for her to come back before eating together…… Anyway, don’t do anything, just wait for her to come back.”

Lu Zhi Wei paused, then nodded: “Okay.”

Xiao Qiu walked towards the door, reminding again: “You have to remember.”

Lu Zhi Wei laughed: “Don’t worry.”

With a clack, the door shut.

Lu Zhi Wei exhaled as she leaned back.

At this moment, she had no other thought, except for big.

The room was so big, the bed was so big.

Wait…… There was only one bed!



Qiu Luo came late, so he didn’t know anything about Lu Zhi Wei’s injury.

In this scene, he was acting with Sang Wan Ci.

After three scenes, Sang Wan Ci was allowed to knock off.

But until the last scene, he didn’t see Lu Zhi Wei on set at all.

He frowned.

Odd. Please read at jiulian lian . wordpress . com

Didn’t that woman like to watch the director at work?

Why wasn’t she here today?

Forget it, it was good that she wasn’t here.

Who liked to see their love rival parading around in front of them?

Besides, since she wasn’t here, he had even more opportunities to be alone with Sang Wan Ci.

Like, a romantic candlelit dinner.

Action is better than just thinking about it[2].

After he made up his mind, he immediately halted Sang Wan Ci, who was getting ready to leave.

Pausing, Sang Wan Ci looked back politely at him.

Qiu Luo smiled and walked forward: “I’ll be done after one more scene, do you have time to have dinner together?”

Sang Wan Ci answered without thinking: “I don’t have time, someone’s waiting for me.”

Qiu Luo: “?”

Qiu Luo asked: “Who?”

Sang Wan Ci looked at him, then glanced at the busy set.

Everybody was busy with their own work and had no time to look at them.

It was pretty conducive for them to talk.

So Sang Wan Ci drew closer to Qiu Luo.

She suppressed her voice, using a volume that only the two of them could hear to say——

“My girlfriend.”

Qiu Luo: “???”

He choked.

—— Lu Zhi Wei, it’s you again!
