Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Chapter 1436: Just because I Like You!

“Then... since you’re so close to me, be careful of the news that you’re dating me. When I admit to our relationship to the media, you won’t be able to get rid of me!”

“You won’t!” Shi Hanchu’s deep voice was filled with certainty. “Because you like me and don’t want me to hate you!”

“Tsk...” Su Manman smiled and turned her head to look at Shi Hanchu. “You’re just relying on the fact that I like you!”

“Mm!” Shi Hanchu nodded and sat properly in his seat.

Su Manman’s heart nearly leaped out of her mouth.

It wasn’t a performance. Su Manman’s face was really red now...

Originally, Su Manman was fair, and her face was especially red.

To others, the two of them looked like a couple in a passionate relationship...

What was going on?

God Shi had always been aloof. When had he ever been so close to an actress who was working with him?

Generally, even if other actresses posted about their closeness online, Shi Hanchu would stay far away.

Based on the situation today, it was obvious that Shi Hanchu was approaching Su Manman.

Rumor had it that... Su Manman was recommended by Shi Hanchu to Director Chen Wenhua.

For some reason, the onlookers could smell the scent of gossip and were eager to learn more.

The second female lead’s eyes nearly turned red. Usually, if she went a little closer to Shi Hanchu, Shi Hanchu’s assistant would think of a way to get rid of her!

But today, she had personally seen Shi Hanchu approach Su Manman!

Indeed, men only cared about appearance...

What was so good about Su Manman other than her face and figure?

Didn’t men look at the beauty inside?

Even though Su Manman was so arrogant and domineering, God Shi was still so friendly towards her.

The second female lead was on the verge of tears. She lowered her head... she was still immersed in her own emotions when it was time for her to deliver her lines.

Director Chen Wenhua looked at the second female lead unhappily. “Can you do it? I’ll have you replaced if you can’t do it!”

The second female lead finally burst into tears...

Good looks were indeed everything. The whole world was biased.

She really wanted to throw the script and say that she was quitting, but this was Director Chen Wenhua’s movie...

This movie could catapult her into stardom.

Director Chen Wenhua only said that out of anger. The second female lead was also an important character in the movie. She had a lot of scenes, so he had carefully looked for the actress who would play the role. After deliberate consideration, he had chosen this actress a while ago.

However, what exactly happened to this lady?

Back then, when he chose her, she was still quite an innocent girl. The production of this movie had been put on hold for two years. Could it be that after two years, the innocent young lady from back then had suddenly become so greedy and covetous?

Director Chen Wenhua glanced at Shi Hanchu and understood...

Homme fatale!

Alright, it wasn’t a big deal for a young lady to be jealous over someone she liked. Director Chen Wenhua chose to be tolerant.

After calming herself down, the second female lead was able to pick up her lines. Of course. After all, she was still someone who had been chosen by Director Chen Wenhua.

Director Chen Wenhua didn’t bring up the matter of the replacement anymore. But he paused for a moment and discussed the deletion of the scenes with the scriptwriter.

Heaven testified that Director Chen Wenhua was really not targeting the second female lead! After all, she had chosen the second female lead herself.

He just felt that the plot here was a little redundant and could totally be adjusted.

The movie was set to have a bit more than two hours duration. The plot had to be tight and less complicated in order to reduce the burden of watching from the audience.

Moreover, the second female lead’s performance wasn’t particularly good to be able to command this part.

But the second female lead couldn’t hold back her tears.

She was still in a dilemma over her looks. She felt that men were all liars... and that they liked pretty ladies. As she only had inner beauty, she was treated coldly by the entire crew.

She finally believed her best friend’s words. It was inevitable for her to have plastic surgery in the entertainment industry.

Her best friend had gained some fame after her plastic surgery, unlike her who had been staying true to her natural appearance for.

Because they were in a hurry to complete the script, Director Chen Wenhua asked someone to order lunch for everyone.

Su Manman didn’t want to make herself suffer. Since it was her first time on set, she offered to treat everyone to a meal... so that they could order food at Jiangman Restaurant.

Of course, Su Manman and Shi Hanchu had custom-made orders.

Because Su Manman was on a diet, her meal was practically grass.

Shi Hanchu’s meal followed his preferences.

Everyone else had the same meal...

When the second female lead heard that Su Manman was the one who ordered the food, she didn’t want to eat it anymore. She felt that if she ate it, she would be accepting distasteful charity... and she couldn’t get over her pride.

However, the director refused to let her go, and she didn’t even have an assistant. All she could do was drink water and not touch her food...

...

After that day’s filming ended, Su Manman heard that the second female lead was crying miserably in her room. Ren Shanze, who was staying in the room next to her, couldn’t have peace.

Su Manman didn’t believe this at first, but when she bumped into Ren Shanze in the elevator the next day, he looked so exhausted that she couldn’t hold back her laughter.

“What are you laughing at?” Ren Shanze pinched his nose bridge.

“Did you hear the sound of crying last night?” Su Manman asked after entering the elevator.

Ren Shanze wasn’t a gossipy man. He only smiled, keeping the fact to himself that he had even listened to the phone call next door for almost an entire night.

Ren Shanze’s sleep was very bad to begin with. But last night, he could not fall asleep even with medication.

“Are you dating God Shi?” Ren Shanze asked casually.

Su Manman turned her head and glanced at Ren Shanze, who was standing next to her with both hands in his pockets. She smiled. “I hope so...”

Ren Shanze didn’t understand what Su Manman meant. He thought that Su Manman was merely denying it as a joke. So, he only nodded.

“I originally planned to treat you to a meal after we’re done with the script reading and apologize to you for my attitude when we first met. But we’ve never finished before 11 pm because Director Chen always stays up to discuss the scripts. He really doesn’t give us free time...” After Ren Shanze finished speaking, he didn’t give Su Manman a chance to reply before asking, “Do you want supper? Can I treat you to supper tonight?”

Su Manman really didn’t have the habit of eating supper. She shook her head. “It’s not that I’m rejecting you, senior. It’s very difficult for me to maintain my figure. Can you imagine the pain I had to suffer having lost nearly 200 pounds? I don’t want to do that again!”

Su Manman smiled and exaggerated her words, surprising Ren Shanze...

“You used to be... fat?” Ren Shanze asked.

“Yeah! So fat that I couldn’t even bear to look at myself...” Su Manman said.

Ren Shanze seemed to have found a common topic with Su Manman. He smiled and said, “Before I entered the industry, I was also fat. I weighed 190 pounds!”

“Senior, you’re 1.86 meters tall, right?” Su Manman remembered Ren Shanze’s profile. “It’s fine to weigh 190 pounds when you’re that tall!”

“That’s still a lot!” Ren Shanze said. “That’s why I understand very well that you don’t want to put on weight and lose them again!”

Su Manman nodded.

Bang!

The elevator door opened. Shi Hanchu seemed to have just finished his exercise and came out of the gym in his sports attire.
