Chapter 558: Being Crushed

en things had calmed down a bit, she spoke.“The children are sick and in the hospital.”Yi Muyang's heart tightened."What's going on"asked while simultaneously pressing down on the accelerator."I have...She snuggled into his arms and said, "I know."

Gu Ruandong is not someone who expresses his emotions easily, and he rarely says sweet words on a daily basis. When she said she was going back to the film set, although he didn't say anything, he was unusually gentle that evening, and you could feel his deep reluctance.

Lu Yaya's body had fully adapted to him. In fact, as long as it wasn't too frequent, she enjoyed it very much.

Tonight, she was more proactive than him. By the time things finally calmed down, it was hard to tell how long it had been. She wasn't sleepy at all. She held onto him possessively and said

“During the shoot, you are not allowed to go to the club. If you need to discuss anything, come to the company.”

"Okay."

Besides Yu Yu, there's another club with a private chef, but it's farther away.

He nodded in agreement again.

"Do you have any other questions"

"Even when busy, you must send messages every day"

He nodded.

Lu YaoYao thought for a moment, and it seemed like there was nothing else she needed to say. Then, she asked him:

Is there anything you want to say to me

Actually, going to film isn't like coming back. Because it's a bit hard to say goodbye, the atmosphere she created was strangely melancholic.

He may have been influenced by her, after holding her for a long time he only said:

Take care of yourself.

This drama is mainly filming her scenes now, so when she arrives on set, the entire work schedule is very intensive, almost revolving around her. Sometimes, she has to shoot three different scenes in one day, working at a much higher intensity than before she was injured.

When I first returned to the set, I couldn't sleep because I kept thinking about Gu Ruandong. Now, I'm so tired that I fall asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow. I often fall asleep during video calls with him.

The hotel she lives in has welcomed several new film crews.

The hotel was fully booked, but the floor they were on had many empty rooms because most of the actors from their own drama crew had checked out. The hotel gave those rooms to a new arriving drama crew.

In the evening, while applying a face mask to her, the assistant gossiped, "The film crew from our same floor is a very famous big-name director and it's a particularly hot topic right now - a costume drama with a strong female lead."

Lu Yao casually said, "Are big female lead costume dramas very popular Then I'll ask Hao Jie to get me one too."

She wasn't interested in hot topics that were popular in the market, nor did she have a sensitivity to them. She always chose scripts based on her own preferences. When her assistant mentioned it, she just casually said it.

The assistant said, "You probably shouldn't take it. Do you know who plays the lead female role in this big female-led drama"

"Who" she mumbled, already drowsy.

"Your arch-nemesis, Xu Zhao!"

Lu Yaoyao sprang up, her face mask falling to the side. She stared incredulously and asked, "Who"

"Xu Zhao! That Xu Zhao who was nominated for Best Actress with you and ended up beating you to win the award. That Xu Zhao who has been arguing with you since you were little!"

Lu Yaoyao suppressed the urge to curse, got out of bed and found her slippers before going straight out the door. "Where are you going" the assistant hurriedly followed.

As Lu Yaoyao stood at the doorway, she stopped and turned back to ask her.

“What room is Xu Zhao in”

The assistant pointed across the room. "That one."

As they were talking, the door across the way opened, revealing Xu Zhao's stunningly beautiful face that was utterly repulsive. Seeing Lu Yaoyao, she was taken aback for a moment.

"Yaoyao, do you live next door"

Not only is she beautiful, but her voice is also incredibly pleasant to hear.

Although Mingming and Lu Yaoyao are the same age, her tone always carries a sense of maturity and steadiness that surpasses Lu Yaoyao. Lu Yaoyao isn't stupid; she knows Xu Zhao is deliberately treating her like a child, making her appear immature, in order to completely overshadow her. Since childhood, Xu Zhao has been better at putting on a show than Lu Yaoyao, and even as adults working in the entertainment industry, she has fared better than Lu Yaoyao.

To say Lu Yaoyao's life had been smooth sailing, without a single "Waterloo" or "bump in the road," would be a lie. That came with Xu Zhao.

The assistant beside her saw that the little princess was in a bad mood, and felt anxious. She was afraid she would start arguing with Xu Zhao again, and end up eating another loss. So she wanted to pull her back to the room.

But then she saw her own little princess, this time a smile slowly creeping onto her face, and she replied to the other in a kind tone; “Yes, Zhao Zhao, what a coincidence.”

It's probably going to get awkward from here, so the assistant quickly said, "Yao Yao, Sister Hao is looking for you on the phone."

Then he brought Lu Yaoyao back to the room.

As soon as she turned back to her room, the smile on her face vanished. She pouted and lay down on her bed, replaying the details of her exchange with Xu Zhao in her mind. Was her expression and voice well-controlled Or did she feel a little too deliberate, losing out to Xu Zhao again She secretly vowed that next time, she would definitely get her revenge.

The assistant has become accustomed to this, according to Hao Jie's words, Xu Zhao's existence is to allow Lu Yao Yao to experience the "pain" of an ordinary girl.

Lu Yao Yao's public image has always been that of a pampered rich second-generation. In the entertainment industry, she has made it this far thanks to her family's financial backing and support. Although she is also working hard and has several representative works, this kind of image is deeply ingrained and difficult to remove. Compared to...

She, Xu Zhao, has always taken a mysterious route. It's only known that she has a powerful background. Rumors abound about her relationship with the Xu family in Beijing, but she never admits or clarifies anything, maintaining this enigmatic image to the end. Besides, she rarely acts in idol dramas; she mainly focuses on prime-time serious dramas. Therefore, her overall public image differs greatly from Lu YaoYao's. It seems that Lu YaoYao relies on traffic and persona while Xu Zhao relies on her acting skills.

This is unavoidable. Lu Yaoyao entered the entertainment industry on a whim, like a young lady playing around, while Xu Zhao entered it with the intention of pursuing a career. Their initial plans were different from the start.

Lu Yaya was thinking about Xu Zhao grumpily while sending a video request to Gu Ruandong. She could only shift her focus by looking at him.

As soon as the video call rang, he picked it up. It was already late; he had just finished showering, his hair dripping wet, wearing a black satin pajamas that had a slightly low neckline, highlighting his skin with a chillingly white complexion. Especially at this moment, the line from his jaw to his neck, Adam's apple, and collarbone formed a perfect arc, both alluring and tempting.

Men can also be beautiful, able to captivate people. Lu Yaoyao saw such beauty and her mood instantly improved. He was indeed her sweet ice cream, making her unable to help but swallow.

Gu Ruandong couldn't help but laugh: "Wipe your drool, it's going to get on camera."

Was it that obvious Lu Yao unconsciously raised her hand and rubbed her lip corner, then looked at him smiling, realizing she had been tricked again.

"It's so late, you're still not asleep" Gu Ruandong stopped teasing her, seeing that she seemed a little unhappy.

Lu Yaoyao couldn't hide her feelings; she wore her joy and anger on her face.

It's almost time for bed.

"I'm just a little bit missing you." When she said this, the grievance on her face was hard to hide. She knew he could tolerate all her emotions, so she wouldn't deliberately conceal them in front of him.

[ chair: Lu Yaoyao, and said“Yo yo, it's none of my business.” She wasn't capable of arranging this."Yao Yao, come sit down quickly. This was always your spot."Lu Yao yao then unwillingly sat down.Qiao...
