Chapter 182 The Rural Girl in "Metamorphosis" 25
As soon as the scene ended and the director yelled "Cut!", Lin Ziye ran towards Zhao Jingyun, calling out, "Wife!"
Wang Xinyao's mouth dropped open in surprise, then she looked at Liu Yuxi and asked, "Is that Lin Ziye's wife? No? Is Lin Ziye old enough to get married?"
Liu Yuxi looked at her and said, "Get engaged right away, and get married when you're old enough!"
Wang Xinyao couldn't accept it. Which male celebrity in this industry gets married so early? Let alone just reaching marriageable age, there are still plenty of single men in their 40s!
"Isn't he afraid of losing his fans?"
Is this woman out of her mind from the shock? "What kind of fans does he need?" Fans might have a big influence on other celebrities, but for Lin Ziye, they are basically useless. He doesn't mainly rely on popularity to make movies. He gets his way through "money, okay?"
At most, the loss of fans might only affect Lin Ziye's endorsements, but given his status, he simply can't accept many of those endorsements anyway.
Wang Xinyao only realized what was happening when she heard Liu Yuxi's question. Yes, Lin Ziye didn't need "beauty powder" at all! She looked at Lin Ziye, who was being affectionate with Zhao Jingyun.
Zhao Jingyun had a strong presence; it was immediately obvious that she came from a wealthy family. Wang Xinyao had never seen her in the circle before, so she must be a young lady from a family that was a good match for Lin Ziye. A sense of powerlessness welled up inside her; she knew in her heart that Lin Ziye, this eligible bachelor, was no longer a possibility for her.
After saying goodbye to Liu Yuxi, I went back to the dressing room. It was almost evening, and since someone had visited Lin Ziye on set, the crew probably wouldn't have any more filming tonight.
Liu Yuxi was about to remove her makeup when Lin Ziye called out to her, "Xiaoxi, come here and introduce your sister-in-law to her!" She rolled her eyes and walked over to the two of them, saying, "Hello, Sister Jingyun!"
Lin Ziye greeted Zhao Jingyun politely, then pursed his lips. Xiaoxi was very polite to everyone except him, but she was quite "genuine" only towards him. Sigh, he was suppressed in his youth, and he probably won't be able to turn things around in this life.
Zhao Jingyun smiled gently at Liu Yuxi, took a small gift box from one of her entourage members, and handed it to Liu Yuxi: "I came in a bit of a hurry, I'll make up for it with a nicer gift next time!"
Liu Yuxi didn't stand on ceremony and accepted the gift box, saying, "Thank you, Sister Jingyun. There's no need to prepare a special gift; I didn't prepare anything."
"You don't need to prepare anything. I'm just here to freeload. It would be even better if you could order some food!"
“Of course, Sister Jingyun, just tell Lin Ziye what you want to eat.” Then she said to Lin Ziye, “Have someone buy some groceries and send them to the hotel kitchen. You two chat first, and I’ll go back to the hotel to cook after I remove my makeup. You two can go back to the hotel to eat when the time comes.”
After greeting the two, she went to remove her makeup and returned to the hotel. Her assistant had already bought the groceries, and Liu Yuxi could tell from the dishes that Lin Ziye had included his own side items.
However, a table full of delicious food was still prepared. Only Grandma Liu Yuxi and Lin Ziye were eating. Zhao Jingyun picked up a piece of food with her chopsticks and put it in her mouth. Her eyes lit up instantly. It was just as delicious as Lin Ziye had described to her every day.
Before this, she had only tasted crayfish at Lin Ziye's place. Although Lin Ziye would sometimes have Liu Yuxi cook a few dishes and air-ship them to him, she could not catch them most of the time because she was at the company every day, while Lin Ziye was with the film crew.
While chatting with Lin Ziye, he bragged about it quite a bit, which made her anxious. He really came all this way just for this one thing. As for the women in the crew, she wasn't worried at all. Why? It just goes to show that the male and female leads have impeccable character and can withstand any test. What else could they be?
Zhao Jingyun couldn't stop eating during the meal. Although she still ate elegantly, the frequency and amount of food she picked up were completely different from usual. Even when she felt full, she still couldn't bear to put down her chopsticks; there was still so much delicious food left to eat!
The stomach seemed to be saying, "I'm going to explode!" while the eyes seemed to be saying, "I think you can hold on a little longer!" Liu Yuxi observed Zhao Jingyun's behavior and realized that, sure enough, she and Lin Ziye were family; their behavior at the dinner table was exactly the same.
"Sister Jingyun, you can't eat anymore. If you want anything, I'll make it for you tomorrow!" Upon hearing this, Zhao Jingyun was initially delighted, but then became dejected: "I have to go back tonight; I have a meeting at the company early tomorrow morning!"
Only then did she begin to resemble a girl in her early twenties. Lin Ziye offered a suggestion from the side: "Call Uncle Zhao and ask him to go get it. Tell him that you'll bring him some good food when you go back!"
Liu Yuxi couldn't help but roll her eyes again. This guy really didn't treat her like an outsider. So, I'm just a tool for him to please his wife and father-in-law? However, she didn't say anything to refute him. She was always very patient with girls. Although she was attracted to men, it seemed that all her good temper was reserved for women and children!
She and her grandmother went back to their room first. The young couple discussed it and decided that if Zhao Jingyun stayed, it would just be a matter of cooking a few more dishes.
Zhao Jingyun couldn't resist the temptation and called her father, praising Liu Yuxi's cooking skills to the skies. This made Zhao's father want to come over, and he emphasized on the phone that she must remember to bring a portion back for her elderly father.
So, the next day at noon, there was another big meal, and it was double the usual amount. One of the meals was prepared and then packed up and sent back to her house. After all, you have to keep your promise, and you're hoping for the next time!
After dinner, Zhao Jingyun had to go back. She already held an important position in the company and really didn't have much free time.
After she left, Liu Yuxi asked Lin Ziye, "Are you two planning for her to earn money to support the family while you, with your beautiful appearance, stay in the picture?"
"Haha! Don't say that. But I really am not very interested in business matters. She is the opposite. She has been very interested in making money since she was a child. Let her keep busy for now. I will work in the entertainment industry for a few years. When I don't want to act anymore, I will go back to manage the company!"
He gave Lin Ziye a thumbs up. The trust between the two of them was unmatched by others. This was only possible because they were the male and female leads. If it were any other two people, each with so many businesses, how could they possibly trust each other?
After Zhao Jingyun's visit, Wang Xinyao stopped clinging to Lin Ziye. When she got back, she had her agent inquire about who Lin Ziye's wife was. After learning the result, she completely gave up.
People of that caliber are not people they can afford to offend. Even if Lin Ziye were interested in her, she wouldn't dare. She's a smart person; otherwise, she wouldn't be able to stay in a top-tier position at such a young age.
The fact that even when Lin Ziye was annoyed with her, he never considered kicking her out of the crew shows Wang Xinyao's capabilities.
