Chapter 280: Love Letter

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The news completely floored Yan Xin!

Excitement radiated off of Yan Xin.

“I want to be in the same production team as her! It’s fine if I don’t return this favor!” Yan Xin jumped out of his chair immediately. Even Fei Zi felt threatened by his towering stature.

Fei Zi, however, took out the existing contract and read it calmly: “Penalty for breach of contract, $1, $10, $100,000, $1,000,000…”

Yan Xin was prevented from job-hopping by the contract’s severe penalties for breaking it.

But Fei Zi wasn’t an unreasonable person, either. “Don’t even think about leaving before this movie is finished. However, I have previously met one of their producers. I can help you ask around.”

Yan Xin graciously agreed, of course.

The crew of “Prime Minister” picked back up where they left off a few days after the live broadcast wrapped. Luo Ying flew with the production team to a city in the west to film.

She drove her crew of assistants to the hotel chosen for them by the production staff. Cheng Zhen, who had arrived the day before, paid a visit not long after.

“Yingying, you’re here!” Cheng Zhen showed no signs of slowing down.

“You got here so early, huh?” Luo Ying was stowing her belongings.

“Hmm? Oh, yeah, Su Li wanted to scope out the area in advance and also look for extras here, so I tagged along with him.” Cheng Zhen had, in fact, invested a great deal in this drama; however, she said as much in a casual tone, and for a moment she seemed distracted.

“What’s wrong? You seem troubled,” Luo Ying asked.

“Well, the thing is, I just got a love letter and I don’t quite know what to make of it,” Cheng Zhen said hesitantly.

As an actress, many of Cheng Zhen’s fans also liked to communicate by writing letters. Cheng Zhen was always able to deftly respond to their comments on her new role or their expressions of love and support.

This time, however, Cheng Zhen received a love letter from a fellow star. It came as quite a shock.

“A love letter?” Luo Ying was equally perplexed. The entertainment business had always been full of reckless egotists. Around here, being on and off meant something between a personal relationship and a marketing ploy.

Someone actually admitted using such a creative and straightforward method of confession?

“What’s even more mortifying is that this comes from the male lead of the production team next door.” Cheng Zhen nervously twisted her hair.

“Oh, that would be Yan Xin. I seem to have some impression of him. So you two know each other?” A few days ago, Luo Ying recalled, he, too, had participated in the live broadcast.

“I don’t even know the man. My manager knows his manager, so he sent this letter.” Cheng Zhen took out the envelope from her bag. “He said that he fell in love at first sight while watching my movies abroad, so he came all the way here to see me.”

Luo Ying looked at the envelope. It was exquisitely made. It was obvious that the other party had put in a lot of effort. She could tell that the other party was very sincere.

This was also why Cheng Zhen was conflicted. If it had been a simple confession, she would have rejected it directly. However, the other party had flown from abroad just to see her. It seemed too heartless.

“You don’t have to reject it directly.” Luo Ying’s eyes fell on the letter, and there was a hint of slyness in her eyes. “Su Li still has a few undecided supporting roles, right? We might as well let him make a cameo.”

“That’s right, what you said makes sense!” Cheng Zhen’s eyes lit up as well. “I heard that he won an award overseas. He has to be good. It’s just right for him to make a cameo!”

Luo Ying was a little amused. The cameo was her obvious way of suggesting that they meet and get to know one another. They could keep shooting if they were satisfied. Otherwise, his cameo would remain a cameo. At the end of the day, all that mattered to Cheng Zhen was casting the show.

But it didn’t matter. After all, in the end, it was the same for everyone. Without further comment, Luo Ying shook her head.

The filming schedule was jam-packed to allow for more post-production work. Soon after Luo Ying’s arrival, filming began.

Coincidentally, Lu Zhao started to work on a new project, so the two of them only had time to video call three days later.

“Do you want to change rooms?” On the other side of the video, Lu Zhao’s background showed that he was in the study. He listened to Luo Ying as she gushed about the exciting developments on the production team. Suddenly, he found himself staring into Luo Ying’s bedroom.

After all, it was just a little city wedged between towering peaks. Neither the hotel’s facilities nor Luo Ying’s room were as spacious as those back home.

“This is already the nicest room in the hotel.” Luo Ying smiled. She knew that Lu Zhao only wanted the best for her.

“Alright then.” Lu Zhao decided it was time to increase the scope of his hotel business.

“What have you been busy with recently?” Luo Ying asked. It was unusual for both she and Lu Zhao to have commitments at the same time..
