“That’s right. Don’t tell me he hasn’t brought you there before?” Deng Yue curled her lips and looked at Lu Zhen in surprise and sympathy. Lu Zhen put down her coffee cup and stood up. Deng Yue was stunned. “What are you doing?”
“We’re done chatting. I’m leaving. Thank you for coming today,” Lu Zhen said politely.
“What do you mean? Are you messing with me?” Deng Yue stood up angrily.
The two of them had just spoken a few words and Lu Zhen was leaving? She had yet to start acting!
Wait a minute… Could it be that Lu Zhen’s psychological defense had collapsed? She couldn’t take it anymore? Deng Yue looked suspiciously at Lu Zhen’s beautiful face, wanting to find a crack on it.
Lu Zhen didn’t want to continue arguing with Deng Yue and turned to leave. Deng Yue shouted from behind, “When are you breaking up with Song Jia?”
Lu Zhen stopped, turned around, and walked up to Deng Yue. “The day I returned from the airport, 1 didn’t respond to you. Now, I’ll answer you.” There was a very faint smile on Lu Zhen’s lips as she said slowly, “People who are in a hurry to prove something will never win.”
Before Deng Yue could react, Lu Zhen had already walked far away. What did Lu Zhen mean? Was she mocking her for being a loser? Deng Yue was so angry that her facial features were a little distorted.
After walking out of the cafe, Lu Zhen was much more certain. On the day she returned from the airport, Deng Yue said in the car that she had gone to the amusement park with Song Jia before.
At that time, Lu Zhen was not sure if Deng Yue’s words were true. What if she was just trying to anger her? Other than confirming this matter, Lu Zhen also found out that Song Jia and Deng Yue had known each other for a long time.
How early was it? They must have known each other earlier than Song Jia and Jiang Kai.
Lu Zhen had a feeling that she might not be able to find out Song Jia’s previous experience. But what if she started with Deng Yue? Perhaps there
would be a different outcome.
Lu Zhen looked at the distant sky and increasingly felt that Song Jia was close and far away from her. The two of them clearly liked each other, but she never seemed to understand him. People were definitely molded into their current appearance by their past experiences, but Song Jia rarely told her about his past, so she couldn’t pry into the secrets buried in his heart.
Lu Zhen originally wanted to respect Song Jia’s private space. She thought that when the time was ripe, Song Jia would take the initiative to tell her. But now, those things had already affected their relationship.
Lu Zhen felt that instead of waiting for Song Jia to explain it to her, she might as well understand it herself. After the snow stopped, the temperature in Beijing warmed up.
Lu Zhen also got busy. In the new year, she had a new goal and plan. Ye Xuan had accepted a few high-end brand endorsements for her. She still had to prepare Director Wei Ji t s new movie and Director Gao Fan’s Rain and Fog.
Both directors had personalities and were more strict than the other. Lu Zhen had to make herself fully prepared. After a period of pondering and research, she recorded a new video and sent it to Gao Fan. In the video, she reenacted Manni’s appearance, making many adjustments to the details.
This time, Director Gao Fan did not say “practice more”. Instead, he sent her more than ten pages of lines. “Practice your lines before filming starts.”
“Rain and Fog” was a television drama about the last century in Hua City. Director Gao Fan had originally wanted to film it in Hua City’s language, but this was not very realistic.
On one hand, not all actors were from Hua City and could speak their language fluently and naturally. On the other hand, after the television drama was broadcasted, the audience would be from all over the country. If it was only a Hua City version, many foreign viewers would find it difficult to understand. At that time, it would easily cause criticism.
Gao Fan had always been criticized for being a “petty bourgeoisie”, aloof, and pretending. If he only filmed the dialect version of a television drama, who knew how many people would scold him.
After hesitating for a while, Gao Fan made a concession. He no longer used dialect to film television dramas. However, other than that, he requested that the other aspects of the television drama be filled with “Hua City taste.” There was no need to talk about the set design. In terms of actors, Gao Fan’s request for the few main leads was that they all learn Hua City language.
After Ye Xuan found out about Gao Fan’s request, she said, “Ridiculous. We’re not filming in dialect. Why do we have to learn dialects?”
Lu Zhen comforted Ye Xuan. “It’s fine. There’s still a long time before we leave for the shoot. I’ll just take some time to learn every day. My father is from Hua
City. I can ask him at any time. It shouldn’t be difficult to learn.”
She was not very confident in her language talent, but she was not afraid of learning. She calculated the time. There was still plenty of time. It was just a dialect, not a foreign language. She could do it..
