The call was from Zhang Yuxi, whom Chen Feng hadn’t seen for so ti. She was currently at the East Lake Garden, which Chen Feng had purchased, inviting him to accompany her.
The two hadn’t t in a long while, combined with Sun Xiaorui’s current health inconvenience, Chen Feng naturally went over without a second thought.
Chen Feng drove there, and quickly arrived at East Lake Garden. As he reached the door of his apartnt and was about to take out his keys, the door opened from the inside.
Then, he was pulled into the room by Zhang Yuxi, her eyes filled with affection.
For the next hour or so, Chen Feng and she left traces of love all over the house.
On the walls near the door, the sofa, the floor, the balcony, the stairs... finally ending up on the bed.
Afterward, they lay on the bed for a long ti, chatting.
Then, they got up from the bed, each poured a cup of hot water, and sat on the balcony, sipping their water while admiring the beautiful night view outside the window and engaging in idle talk.
"The role I guest-starred in this ti, personally, I don’t quite like it, but since it’s directed by Zhang Zheyin, I just hope the finished film won’t be too bad."
When Zhang Yuxi was with Chen Feng, most of the ti they talked about work, occasionally about life.
And Chen Feng played the role of a listener very well, occasionally providing feedback, asking a few questions, or offering his advice.
"Our company has already started investing in so film projects, currently just as co-investors, but in the future, we will undoubtedly take the lead in investnts. When that ti cos, our company will certainly prioritize selecting its signed artists as leads. I think that ti isn’t too far off, perhaps next year or the year after."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuxi imdiately smiled, "Then I’ll be waiting for it. By then, the company must give a leading lady role in a movie."
Chen Feng also smiled and said, "You are now the leading star of our company; we will definitely promote you, even willing to tailor a movie for you, just like this ’Green Jade Case’."
Zhang Yuxi nodded and said, "’Green Jade Case’ was due to your kindness, and I’ve always rembered that. I hope the broadcast ratings tonight will reach ideal results."
’Green Jade Case’ premieres tonight on Blue Star TV at 19:35.
It’s considered pri ti, and it’s very favorable. Clearly, Blue Star TV is very optimistic about this drama.
By this ti, it has already finished broadcasting.
"Are you not confident about your own drama?" Chen Feng asked with a smile.
"I do have confidence; I’ve seen several episodes of the finished product, and they’re really great. But since it hasn’t officially aired on television yet, and the ratings aren’t out yet, I inevitably feel a little uncertain."
"Don’t worry, I’ve seen the entire finished product. Viewing it as an ordinary TV audience, without a doubt, it’s a very exciting drama, at least the best I’ve seen in ancient costu dramas over the years. It may not surpass those grand classic costu dramas, but it’s definitely better in quality compared to other current ones."
"I think so too, but you know, sotis high-quality dramas just don’t have high ratings."
"You’re really..." Chen Feng shook his head, "Your ntal resilience needs strengthening. After the ratings co out tomorrow, you’ll see. You need to prepare for gaining significant fa."
"Then thank you for your kind words."
...
The two talked until around eleven o’clock in the evening, both feeling a bit hungry, so Zhang Yuxi went to the kitchen to find sothing to eat. She had lived here intermittently for so ti, and her assistant had bought quite a lot of food to stock in the fridge.
She checked, and there were noodles and eggs, which have a relatively long shelf life in the fridge and hadn’t spoiled yet.
So Zhang Yuxi, the big star, personally cooked egg noodles for both of them.
Before she beca famous, she ca from an ordinary family, and her cooking skills weren’t great but decent.
The noodles were decent, and so were the fried eggs.
Both ate their fill, and then felt a bit nostalgic. But to be honest, it was mostly Zhang Yuxi who still wanted it.
Her enthusiasm was hard for Chen Feng to refuse, so he could only exert himself tirelessly.
That night, of course, Chen Feng stayed at East Lake Garden.
In the early morning of the next day, Chen Feng woke up, got out of bed, and went to the spacious balcony to breathe in so fresh air and exercise. Then Zhang Yuxi also got up, wearing just a bathrobe, ca over from behind, and hugged him, her face pressed against his back.
When Chen Feng turned around, facing her, she gave him a brilliant smile and asked, "Do you always get up this early every day?"
"More or less. It’s not very early now; it’s almost 7:30. Generally, I wake up around 6:30."
"Your routine is quite good. Last night, we went to sleep at eleven o’clock. I haven’t slept that early in a long ti."
"If possible, you should also stick to a routine of going to bed early and getting up early; it’s good for your health."
"I want to, but a lot of the ti, when I’m busy, it’s impossible to have regularity. Like when you have to shoot night scenes, sotis they last until two or three in the morning."
...
The two chatted casually, with no fixed topic, wherever the conversation led them, very relaxed.
This was a form of tacit understanding between them, where they both tried to avoid discussing each other’s private lives or family matters.
Zhang Yuxi had a good grasp of boundaries and distance, which was the main reason Chen Feng maintained a "friendly relationship" with her.
Otherwise, even if she was a big star and a beautiful woman, after many tis, Chen Feng would have been bored without boundaries.
Breakfast was also cooked by Zhang Yuxi; boiled eggs and milk.
Chen Feng ate three; she ate only one. After all, as a star, she unquestionably needed to manage her figure, to pay attention to diet and control her appetite.
After breakfast, Zhang Yuxi called her agent Hu Rui to inquire about the ratings for ’Green Jade Case,’ and indeed the situation was excellent, breaking 1 in the second episode.
Now, for dostic dramas, breaking 1 in ratings already signifies it’s a hit, and breaking 2 would make it very popular.
Therefore, even though it’s only the first two episodes, the ratings have already ranked among the top during the sa ti slot.
This is undoubtedly a very good start, and it’s believed that as the drama continues to air, the ratings will definitely keep rising.
As long as the subsequent plot doesn’t fail, reaching 2 is just a matter of ti.
With such results, Zhang Yuxi was naturally very satisfied, even excitedly embraced Chen Feng, her benefactor, with a series of warm kisses, followed by expressing her deep gratitude through more practical actions.
Finally, Chen Feng managed to return to Red Villa Bay before lunch.
The reason wasn’t that Chen Feng didn’t wish to spend more ti with Zhang Yuxi, but rather because Zhang Yuxi had suddenly received an urgent announcent, from a major client, requiring her to fly to Beijing imdiately.
Moreover, it is foreseeable that with the airing of ’Green Jade Case,’ her popularity will surge, and she will be busy, which, from Chen Feng’s perspective as a boss, is indeed very gratifying.
