This version, the final one, is indeed perfect. Gu Ruandong nodded without speaking, walked straight to Lu Yaoyao’s side and sat down, glancing at her: “If you’re bored, I’ll take you back to your hotel first.”
Another scene will be shot in the afternoon.
Lu YaoYao turned her head and ignored him. This person was fine when he went out this morning, but as soon as he started working, he flipped his face and didn’t recognize anyone. Who is he giving his face to?
He leaned in, looking her straight in the eyes: “If you have other male fans, then don’t want me as a fan anymore?”
Lu Yaoyao originally didn’t want to pay attention to him, but when she heard him say that, she suddenly realized, was her official male fan jealous? The haze from before disappeared instantly, and she said seriously:
“Since you are all fans, you should get along peacefully.”
He didn’t get angry, but suddenly leaned close to her ear and whispered, “Believe me or not, I could take you away right now and hide you.”
Her lips, pressed against his ear, were a bit cold, but as she spoke, a faint warmth of white breath lightly brushed her cheek. She remembered last night when he whispered in her ear that he wanted to hide her away, and suddenly her heart skipped a beat, her face flushed red, pushing him away: “Bossy.”
Just as I pushed him aside a bit, the several lead actors came in from outside, each with a chill about them. They had originally been smiling and greeting her, but upon seeing Gu Ruandong beside her, their smiles immediately faded, replaced by respectful and deferential expressions.
Gu Ruandong just has that aura of “stay away from me.” Even though these actors were personally interviewed and selected by him, and he’s been to the set a lot during filming, not a single actor has dared to approach him.
The weather was already cold, and with him being in the shed like a moving refrigerator, even Lu Yaoyao felt colder. So she smiled at him proactively.
We greeted her, after all, he is her rare male fan, she cherishes him very much.
Of course, there’s also a little bit of wanting to see Ruan Dong get jealous.
Her smile was infectious, and as soon as she spoke, the atmosphere gradually improved.
Of all the actors, Ou Qilian was the boldest. Seeing Gu Ruandong leave to attend to something else, he immediately took his own script and sat next to Lu Yaoyao to humbly seek advice. Although the director didn’t explicitly state who the prototype for this film was, anyone who had read the script and paid attention would know. So Ou Qilian marked up the script with a fluorescent pen and came over to ask her questions. In these circumstances, what kind of reaction, expression, or movements would the elder make?
He humbly asked for advice, and Lu Yaoyao of course answered seriously.
Both of them being actors, after discussing the script for a while, they felt inspired to create something. So Oh Gi-jeon just improvised a performance for her, and she corrected some details of his movements and subtle expressions on the spot.
When she was correcting him, she even went up on tiptoe and reached up to open Ouchian’s brows: “This frown is completely your personal habit, it doesn’t fit the character, so you should control it appropriately. Don’t form a muscle memory, otherwise it will be difficult to shape the character later.”
For her, it was just a normal action. After all, she was an actress. Directors often demonstrated scenes themselves during rehearsals, so she didn’t think much of it.
Only when she saw Ouchi’s face blush slightly did she take a step back, creating some distance between them, and awkwardly withdrew her hand.
She stumbled back, bumping into a solid chest and nearly falling. A familiar hand reached out to steady her arm. As she looked up, she saw Gu Ruandong’s cold <<<
His eyes, though seemingly innocent, held a gaze that made her feel strangely guilty.
Mr. Ou Qilian also took back the script: “Good day, Shao Gu. Yaoyao, thank you today, I’ve benefited a lot.”
Lu Yaoyao chuckled dryly: “You’re welcome, it’s nothing.”
After Ou Qiqian left, Gu Ruan relaxed his grip on her arm and stood face-to-face with her. He blurted out inexplicably:
“I regret it.”
“Hmm?”
“Back to the hotel.”
“Aren’t we still filming in the afternoon?” she asked as she walked.
“Hmm,” he replied curtly.
He put his arm around her shoulders and walked her to the car, shoving her inside before buckling her in and slamming the door shut. It was all done in one swift motion.
“Send Miss Lu back to the hotel.”
He stood outside the car, commanding the driver.
After the car started, Lu Yaoyao realized belatedly that he wanted her to go back to the hotel first. She was furious and cursed at him through the car window.
“Gu Ruandong, you bastard.”
Many words she wanted to curse, yet couldn’t utter a single dirty word; her language for insults was always barren. Unable to express her anger, she cried in frustration inside the car and immediately told the driver to take her to the airport. She shouldn’t have come on this trip at all.
The driver, a man of few words, explained: “Ms. Lu, the road out of town is closed and it will take about two days to reopen.”
She was so angry that she couldn’t speak, storming back to the hotel alone and starting to pack her bags. She wouldn’t go back, and she definitely wasn’t going to live with him anymore. He was really too much.
She went to the hotel front desk to change rooms. Since it wasn’t peak season, there were plenty of vacant rooms available. She chose a large bed room furthest from Gu Ruandong and checked in, determined not to bother with him for the next few days.
In the evening, I received a call from Gu Ruandong. She hung up.
I won’t accept it.
His video request came in with a vibration. Lu Yaoyao put her phone on the bed and let it ring without answering. She thought she had been very obedient since being with him, never willful or causing him any trouble. This time, she just wanted to surprise him by traveling far to see him. However, he complained yesterday that she couldn’t take care of herself and today that she was distracting him from work, leaving her alone back at the hotel. So, after the passion of love faded, he went back to his original self, becoming impatient with her.
As soon as she thought about it, her heart ached with sadness. She had been crying in the hotel all afternoon.
After the video call ended, he sent another voice call request, persistent in wanting to talk.
She was furious. When she answered the call, she shouted into the phone: “I know you’re tired of me bothering you. I won’t bother you anymore. After the road opens, I’ll go back myself. You don’t have to send me.”
After unleashing that outburst, she hung up the call. She felt drained and slumped onto the bed, completely still.
After a while, there was a knock at the door, accompanied by Gu Ruandong calling her name.
She simply pulled the blanket over her head and continued to ignore him.
The soundproofing of this hotel is poor, with a cacophony coming from the door. It seems to be Gu Ruandong arguing with the staff, probably because the waiter refused to open the door. Gu Ruandong’s voice was icy cold.
“If someone gets hurt in there, are you responsible?”
His demeanor and voice held a certain air of intimidation. After the server reported him to the management, Doodoo trembled as he swiped his card to open the door.
Lu Yaoyao only heard the beep of the card reader at the door and the sound of the doorknob turning, after which the world outside the blanket was uncharacteristically quiet.
In a few seconds, she was pulled into an embrace along with the blanket, his hands lifting the edge of the blanket…
corner, she whispered in her ear
“Have you learned to leave home now?”
