Capítulo 2025: Chapter 2025: A Bit Awkward
Luo Ziling followed Luo Yuqing to et Dai Shulan with a belly full of frustration.
Dai Shulan was still dressed in a very gentle and beautiful manner.
Usually, Dai Shulan dressed quite casually—not to say in a careless way, but she did not pay much attention to the quality of clothes or whether they were fashionable, rather she dressed very freely and never chased trends.
No matter what clothes she wore, they looked beautiful on her.
Dai Shulan was 1.68 ters tall, with long legs, a slightly slender body, not particularly voluptuous, giving off a slightly delicate feeling. For a woman like her, clothes fit easily, and with a beautiful face, she always gave an impressive appearance even without much dressing up.
Born with natural beauty, that’s what won like her are.
But today, she obviously dressed up well, wearing a long skirt full of classical charm, and a beautiful necklace hung on her chest. In the past, her hair mostly hung down simply, but today she had braided it into two pigtails, looking indescribably pure and lovely.
When Luo Ziling saw her, he couldn’t help but glance a couple more tis.
“Oh, soone’s getting attention, even started to care about dressing up?” Luo Yuqing plopped down beside Dai Shulan and said sarcastically, “It’s no wonder, a handso little brother is wooing her, and he’s a popular star. Of course, she has to dress up a bit. Although I’ve never been in love, I understand the principle of won wanting to please those they like.”
Luo Yuqing’s words made Dai Shulan’s face blush deeply. She looked at Luo Ziling a bit guiltily and then defensively explained, “Yuqing, don’t talk nonsense, I haven’t agreed to his pursuit.”
“That’s normal, a woman being pursued by a man doesn’t surrender right away. She has to put on a pose, let him put in a lot of effort before succeeding. As the saying goes, easily gained things are not cherished, that’s what it ans.” Luo Yuqing said carefreely, “He only pursued you for a few days, and you show interest, then it definitely won’t last long between you.”
Dai Shulan’s pretty face turned even redder, and her heart felt more guilty, but she didn’t let Luo Yuqing’s nonsense slide and seriously explained, “Li Jiancheng is an important role that the company decided on for this film, he asked about the plot, and I couldn’t refuse. But I really don’t have that kind of interest in him, and I told him directly that I haven’t thought about dating him. So, don’t misunderstand.”
She explained this to Luo Ziling, afraid that he might misunderstand and then ignore her.
She originally wanted to find a ti to explain this to Luo Ziling alone, but afraid it might backfire. Such things, if not asked, explaining them proactively has a feeling of ‘The lady doth protest too much.’
But Dai Shulan never expected Luo Yuqing to bring up the matter when she was completely unprepared.
Seeing Luo Ziling’s displeased look, Dai Shulan could imagine how bad the situation was, so she desperately explained.
Seeing that Luo Yuqing still seed unconvinced, and with no change in Luo Ziling’s expression, she said earnestly, “Although Li Jiancheng is a big star, I have no feelings for him, and I won’t agree to him.”
Luo Yuqing ignored Dai Shulan’s explanation and instead turned to Luo Ziling and said, “Li Jiancheng is interested in playing the leading role in this drama, and the company is currently in contact with him. If possible, sign him up with our Lingyun Film and Television. Li Jiancheng has beco a popular star in recent years, with a great market value, charging at least forty million per drama. This ti, for so unknown reason, he is willing to take on this role for a low fee. He even said that as long as he gets the lead role, the fee can be negotiated.”
“You handle this matter yourself,” Luo Ziling didn’t pay much attention to such matters, feeling that Luo Yuqing should have her own judgnt, so he didn’t want to get involved.
Dai Shulan saw Luo Ziling talking like this with Luo Yuqing, realizing her explanation was useless, she got very anxious, her little face flushed red.
“How’s your script coming along?” When Dai Shulan was anxious, Luo Ziling started to ask her questions.
“It’s almost done.” Dai Shulan said with so frustration, “I have already written most of it and am in the process of editing it.”
Actually, in Dai Shulan’s bag, there was a USB drive containing the script and other suggestions, intending to give it to Luo Ziling for him to review and then provide so feedback, but after Luo Yuqing’s outburst, she lost the courage to take it out.
“Will you be acting in this drama?” Luo Yuqing asked Luo Ziling, “If you want to participate, you can pick a role yourself, even the lead role is fine. In that case, I could let Li Jiancheng choose another role, or if he doesn’t want to accept the assignnt, it’s up to him.”
“I better not,” Luo Ziling felt he didn’t have the ti to focus on these matters, with many things to do, so he declined, “Leave it to professional actors to perform!”
Initially, Luo Ziling had expressed an interest in participating in a role, upon hearing this, while writing the script, Dai Shulan had changed the main character to soone similar to Luo Ziling in personality.
Actually, the male lead in the book she wrote was soone with a character similar to Luo Ziling’s. Decisive and straightforward in actions, very popular with won, gaining fa at a young age in Capital City. She really hoped Luo Ziling could take part, as she also wanted to play a role in it. If Luo Ziling was willing to play the lead, she planned to make a guest appearance in an important supporting role, a woman with many entanglents with the male lead.
Acting out a drama or creating a real one, at least find so solace.
Unexpectedly, Luo Ziling refused to participate, leaving Dai Shulan quite depressed.
So unrealistic thoughts were thus shattered, leaving her a bit disheartened.
So much so that in the subsequent conversation, she didn’t even know what she was saying.
Luo Yuqing noticed Dai Shulan’s depressed look, feeling a bit smug inside.
She didn’t stay long, but rather left first under the pretext of having sothing to do.
As she left, she winked at Luo Ziling.
Soon after, Luo Ziling received a ssage from Luo Yuqing: “It’s certain, this little girl has fallen for you, or she wouldn’t be so upset today. Find a way to win her over, I believe she’s your ideal partner. You’re too strong-headed, and you don’t match well with Ouyang Feifei or Yang Qingyin. Two equally strong people would lead to a difficult life later.”
Seeing this ssage, Luo Ziling couldn’t help but smile wryly and delete it quickly.
Unexpectedly, Luo Yuqing sent another ssage: “I guarantee she hasn’t been in contact with other n; she’s a very pure girl. But you also have to understand, a woman with no romantic history is more tender-hearted. If another man sweet-talks her for a while, she might get emotionally swayed, after all, there’s nothing between you two. Trust , I’m your sister!”
After reading this, Luo Ziling deleted the ssage again, but Luo Yuqing’s two ssages did stir his thoughts.
After Luo Yuqing left, Dai Shulan felt even heavier in spirit. Faced with Luo Ziling alone, she didn’t know what to say.
Because of receiving such ssages from Luo Yuqing, Luo Ziling also didn’t know what to say, and the two just sat there in silence.
The atmosphere was quite awkward.
