When Xiaoxiao returned to the hotel with a pile of things, she didn’t see Song Jia.
“Has President Song left?” After putting down the things, Xiaoxiao walked to the bed. Seeing that Lu Zhen’s face was not so pale, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Lu Zhen buried her head in the blanket and replied gloomily, “Yes, he should be gone.
Seeing that Lu Zhen was not in a good state, Xiaoxiao asked worriedly, “Are you still feeling unwell? Do you want to take painkillers?”
Lu Zhen shook her head. “It doesn’t hurt anymore. I’m just a little tired.”
“Alright, then rest for a while. I’ll make chicken soup for you today.” Xiaoxiao didn’t think too much about it and closed the door.
The room fell silent. After a while, Lu Zhen lifted the blanket, took the phone, and opened the chat box.
Should she say something to Song Jia? Forget it. Saying anything now would only make the two of them feel even more awkward.
Lu Zhen placed her phone at the head of the bed and stared at the ceiling in a daze. She couldn’t help but think of Song Jia supporting her and carrying her to the bed when she was about to faint.
At that time, she actually felt a trace of peace and sweetness in his arms. Perhaps people who had been single for too long could not maintain their willpower. However, there was no point in thinking about this now. She had already made things clear and personally cut off the possibility of their future.
Moreover, a man like Song Jia was good-looking and rich. What kind of woman could he not find? Perhaps he would stop paying attention to her soon.
At night, Xiaoxiao handed the stewed chicken soup to Lu Zhen. Lu Zhen tasted it and nodded. She praised, “Xiaoxiao, your culinary skills are really getting better and better.”
Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows proudly. “Of course. I’ve referenced several videos of food bloggers. Sister Zhenzhen, I’ve thought it through. When you stop filming one day, I’ll be your chef. What do you think?”
Lu Zhen couldn’t help but laugh. Xiaoxiao was already thinking about retirement?
The two of them chatted as they ate. Ye Xuan suddenly called. After answering the video call, Ye Xuan did not waste any time and directly talked about work.
“After filming ‘Beauty’ , you have almost two months of free time. I’ve chosen a few variety shows for you. See if there’s anything you’re interested in.”
Xiaoxiao took the computer and received the document sent by Ye Xuan. Lu Zhen put down the bowl and wiped the corner of her mouth. “Just help me choose. I believe in your taste.”
“I’m not an authoritarian manager. It still depends on what variety show you like. If you don’t like it and are unhappy after going, you won’t be able to
perform well.” Ye Xuan typed on the computer as she spoke, looking like she was still working.
Lu Zhen roughly browsed through a few alternative variety shows. She was about to tell Ye Xuan to give her an answer tomorrow when she suddenly saw a name that almost made her heart stop.
Lu Zhen was stunned. She stared blankly at the computer screen, her hand holding the mouse stiff.
Ye Xuan sensed Lu Zhen’s abnormality and frowned. “What’s wrong? Is there a problem?
Lu Zhen came back to her senses. Her throat was dry. She lowered her head and sorted out her emotions before looking at the screen. After looking into Ye Xuan’s eyes, Lu Zhen said firmly, “I want to go to the variety show ‘Celebrity Performance Class 2’. Is that okay?”
Ye Xuan was stunned for a moment. She did not expect Lu Zhen to choose this variety show.
“Celebrity Performance Class 2” was a reality show for directors. It invited four famous directors who enjoyed popularity both domestically and overseas to join. In the show, four directors would direct the filming of film and television productions at the event location.
The 80 celebrities would compete for the roles of these film and television works. After filming ended, they would accept scores from the director and the audience. Only those with high scores could advance to the next round.
This program had already been held for a season, but the first season’s reputation was not good. “Celebrity Acting Class 1” only scored a little more than 6 points on the website. It could be considered a lousy variety show.
The reason why the television station held a second season was purely because although this program had a bad reputation, it was quite popular. After all, the popularity and discussions brought about by 80 celebrities were enough to make this show popular from the beginning to the end.
Ye Xuan frowned and looked at Lu Zhen in confusion. Although she had placed this variety show as a backup, Ye Xuan actually did not like this show very much.
This program was introduced and did very well overseas. However, because the atmosphere in the domestic entertainment industry was too impetuous, most variety programs rarely worked hard to polish it. They were just earning gimmicks and marketing popularity..
