Chapter 55 Bai Mengyan, do you miss me that much?
The plot took an unexpected turn!
Even Yang Chaoyue was bewildered and at a loss!
Only Xu Lang and Zheng Shuang remained normal, accepting the situation calmly and believing that this was the normal course of the story.
"Speak!" Xu Lang nudged Yang Chaoyue with his elbow. Only then did she react, stammering and incoherently:
"N-nothing...it's okay!"
Zheng Shuang straightened her back, deftly inserted the straw into the milk tea cup, took a big sip, and even a very faint, almost theatrical smile appeared on her lips:
"It's delicious!"
Then, he turned and left.
Yang Chaoyue looked at Xu Lang with a face full of surprise and lingering fear:
"Is she... alright?"
Xu Lang smiled slightly: "Isn't she doing quite well? It's only natural for her to apologize to you after making a mistake!"
I led her to the small dining table.
After delivering the milk tea, Qiao Zhenyu quickly gathered around the small dining table, and Dilraba also came over, both staring at Xu Lang with puzzled expressions.
Apart from the two of them, everyone around listened intently, waiting for Xu Lang to reveal the secret.
Xu Lang picked up the lunchbox, opened it, and took a bite:
"What are you all curious about? Isn't it normal to apologize when you do something wrong?"
"It might be normal for others!" Qiao Zhenyu glanced out of the corner of his eye at Zheng Shuang, who seemed completely unconcerned about the strange looks from the entire crew.
"But for her, this is not normal!"
Zheng Shuang is such a proud person; to make her bow her head is as difficult as climbing to heaven.
But Xu Lang really did it!
Countless people are filled with questions.
"Eat! Don't talk while eating, don't talk while sleeping, understand?"
Xu Lang did not intend to continue discussing this topic.
Qiao Zhenyu and Dilraba exchanged a glance, seeing the frustration and even greater curiosity in each other's eyes.
A few suppressed sighs could be faintly heard from the surroundings, and the aroma of melons filled the air, but the protagonist remained tight-lipped.
……
Although Zheng Shuang appeared natural and relaxed on the other side, she was actually the most worried.
She sat at the same table as Li Yifeng, glancing at Xu Lang out of the corner of her eye from time to time, afraid that Xu Lang would reveal even the slightest trace of what happened last night.
Fortunately, Xu Lang kept his mouth shut, which was a relief.
Lunch break went by quickly!
The executive director contacted Xu Lang, saying that his scenes would be filmed within the next few days.
The original plan was to film Xu Lang's scenes all at once, leaving him off the set, which led to Zheng Shuang making things difficult for him.
It now appears that the conflict has been completely resolved, but the production team still decided to finish filming Xu Lang's scenes first.
Xu Lang said he would follow the director's instructions!
The subsequent filming went more smoothly than expected.
Xu Lang was in excellent form, getting almost every take right. His scenes with Zheng Shuang were also surprisingly smooth, without the usual deliberate provocation or stiff avoidance. Although there was still not much interaction, they strangely fit the character's requirements in front of the camera.
Five days passed in the blink of an eye.
Feng Guangmo's scenes have finally wrapped up filming!
The production team held a wrap party for Xu Lang.
At the wrap party, everyone was very enthusiastic, toasting and taking turns to offer Xu Lang a drink.
Amidst the clinking of glasses, Xu Lang was thoroughly plied with drinks until he was completely disoriented.
Yang Mi even made a special trip back from Shanghai to hear about Xu Lang's success in winning over Zheng Shuang a few days ago.
Fueled by alcohol, he secretly asked Xu Lang a question, but Zheng Shuang overheard him and rushed over to stop him in a panic.
The hustle and bustle of the wrap party dissipated late into the night.
next day!
Xu Lang left the hotel where the film crew was staying, packed his things quickly, and headed to Bai Mengyan's rented apartment.
Bai Mengyan went to class, and Xu Lang opened the door and went in by himself.
The room is a one-bedroom apartment, furnished so simply it's almost cold and austere.
The living room contained only a sofa, a TV, and a small coffee table. A few pieces of women's clothing were drying on the balcony, with a touch of lace swaying gently in the breeze.
The bedroom door was open, and at a glance, there was a faint, sweet fragrance of a young girl, pink sheets and duvet covers, and several plush toys piled in the corner of the bed.
Xu Lang threw his luggage in the living room, lay down on the soft bed, and took out his phone.
Dilraba was concerned that he had nowhere to stay and suggested that he stay at a guesthouse again, since the film crew there hadn't vacated their place yet.
But Xu Lang refused, saying that filming had already wrapped up and he shouldn't continue to occupy the crew's resources, and that he would find a friend to make do with him.
Mao Xiaotong was not in Hengdian. Upon learning that Xu Lang had finished filming, she strongly invited him to come to her place and offered to take care of his food, clothing, and accommodation.
Xu Lang declined, saying he had other things to do there and was going to shoot a music video soon.
It's a little after 3 p.m.!
Bai Mengyan is back!
"Didn't you say get out of class didn't end until 5:30? Why did you come back?"
Bai Mengyan was wearing a white T-shirt, super short denim shorts that revealed her long, fair legs, white sneakers, a black bag in one hand, and a tablet in the other.
As she changed her shoes, her gaze fell upon Xu Lang:
"I have to come back soon, lest someone ruin my home."
Wearing slippers, staring at Xu Lang lying on the sofa, I lost:
"You're sleeping on the sofa?"
Xu Lang looked completely innocent: "I'm lucky to have a sofa to sleep on while I'm living under someone else's roof!"
Bai Mengyan gave a soft "humph" through her nose, didn't reply, and turned to go into the bedroom.
Her gaze swept over the obvious creases on the bed from being slept on, a stark contrast to the smooth surface she had tidied up that morning.
She kept pretending; a slight smile played on her lips. She didn't call her out on it, took her pajamas from the balcony, and turned to go into the bathroom.
"I'm covered in sweat, I'm going to take a shower!"
Xu Lang ignored her and continued to maintain his relationships with others on his phone, mainly to confirm the time with Zhao Lei.
Half an hour later!
Bai Mengyan walked out, drying her hair. She had changed into a silk slip dress, the soft fabric clinging to her skin and outlining her slender curves.
She walked barefoot to the sofa and sat down next to Xu Lang naturally. A warm, damp scent from her shower instantly enveloped him.
"Xu Lang, if it weren't for filming the music video, would you have jumped straight into this project?"
Xu Lang nodded: "More or less!"
When Chai Biyun learned that Xu Lang was about to finish filming, she kept recommending that he audition for her next film.
She's already spoken to the director, so her chances of being selected are extremely high.
In addition, Yu Zheng invited him to participate in "Ban Shu Legend", a drama starring Jing Tian.
Yu Zheng personally recommended him, so there was basically no need for an audition. The problem lay with Jing Tian; he didn't want to have too much interaction with her.
The wire incident was still vivid in his mind; he wanted to avoid it as much as possible before he grew up.
Yu Zheng indicated that the role of the male lead, Wei Ying, could be reserved for him; however, Xu Lang knew that there would definitely be conditions.
According to the script from the previous life, the role of Wei Ying was played by Yu Zheng's own artist, Zhang Zhehan.
That is, the actor who played Yelü Qi in "The Return of the Condor Heroes" and was replaced by Xu Lang.
Last time he caused trouble, which greatly annoyed Yu Zheng, but Yu Zheng still chose to forgive him.
If he signed Xu Lang, he wouldn't promote him as a protégé, but Xu Lang has consistently refused to sign him.
Bai Mengyan stared at him with affection in her eyes: "Then wouldn't I be delaying your filming? I owe you a favor, right? I have to repay it."
Xu Lang was busy maintaining relationships on his phone, and casually said:
"Even a day as husband and wife is worth a hundred days of kindness. We've shared a bed for years, so helping you with this little thing is nothing."
"No, we've already broken up; consider it a debt I owe you, I have to pay it back!" Bai Mengyan bent one leg, her knee resting on the sofa next to Xu Lang, and straddled the other leg, sitting directly on his lap.
As her soft weight pressed down, she instinctively wrapped her arms around Xu Lang's neck, her breath sweet and fragrant, her eyes gleaming with a cunning yet bold light:
"I'll repay you in my own way... I guarantee you'll feel right at home."
Xu Lang smelled the lingering fragrance emanating from her body; it was still so familiar, still so alluring.
He wrapped his arms around her slender waist, and with a slight pull, she was pulled forward, almost pressed against his body.
Their foreheads were pressed together, their noses touched, and they could feel each other's breath.
"Mengyan, isn't this your real reason for asking me to come and stay?"
"You rushed back before get out of class was even over, did you miss me that much?"
Bai Mengyan quickly and gently kissed his lips:
"Hehe, don't you miss me?"
"Don't try to deny it... Your eagerness to come here says it all, hehe!"
