Chapter 19 -19 Concern from the Big Shot_1

Big Brother watched her looking as if she’d been fished out of the water, his heart aching and clenched, his face mournful, and his hand shaking the fan in his hand like a motor, trying to cool her off as much as possible.

At that moment, the director called out, “Xia Ningxing dear, it’s time to start filming!”

Xia Ningxing stood up: “Coming!”

During filming, local residents who heard that a TV show was being shot nearby would come to watch in their free time to pass the dull moments, among them was a boy wearing a duckbill cap.

Lu Tingli had originally come to the city to buy books, but then he remembered she was filming here and, considering they were neighbors, decided to have a look.

Today he was dressed in a black short-sleeved shirt and black trousers, his dark eyes visible beneath the brim of his cap, now fixated on Xia Ningxing behind the camera.

Seeing her drenched in sweat, he frowned involuntarily, reminded of his own pitiable appearance selling goods on the hot streets during the height of summer.

Both of them were struggling in their own ways.

Lu Tingli sighed softly, his heart filled with a touch of pity, and pulled a folded note from his pocket, giving a crew member some money to buy her a few bottles of iced water and popsicles, leaving the change as a tip for running the errand.

The crew member, seeing he could earn such a generous tip, went off smiling broadly to make the purchase.

And why didn’t he go himself? Of course, he didn’t want her to spout a bunch of rainbow farts of gratitude at him again. Humph, that’s just how tsundere he was!

“Ningxing dear, someone asked me to buy some things for you.” Soon, the crew member came back smiling broadly, arms full of iced water and popsicles.

Xia Ningxing was startled, “Who sent these?”

“I don’t know him, but he’s probably a fan of yours, a boy about ten years old or so,” the crew member said.

A boy about ten years old?

Could it be…

Is it Lu Tingli!?

Xia Ningxing instantly leaped up from her chair in excitement, standing on her tiptoes and scanning the area, her sharp eyes catching a glimpse of a familiar figure hiding in the crowd.

It really was him!

Xia Ningxing was instantly filled with joy. Though she eyed his future inheritance, she truly did want to be his childhood friend.

Seeing that her extended friendship was reciprocated, how could Xia Ningxing not be happy.

She wished she could rush up to him now and pat his shoulder.

But she couldn’t, she had to keep her cool!

Keep cool!

A tsundere and arrogant person like him would probably never come back if she exposed him.

Xia Ningxing forcibly restrained herself, withdrawing her gaze and pretending she hadn’t seen anything.

While filming, knowing that Big Brother was watching, Xia Ningxing tried harder than ever to show just how great she was, so she gave her all that day. Her intensity in several scenes even overwhelmed her co-stars, leaving them unable to respond.

Director Xu was nearly grinning from ear to ear; a fifty-one-day actor was performing better than others who had been paid a thousand or even more.

Worth it!

In early August, Xia Ningxing finished all her scenes.

And earned herself fifteen hundred yuan.

On the day of the wrap-up, Xia Ningxing was surprised to find that Lu Tingli had finally stopped sneaking around and made a bold appearance on set.

“Lu! What are you doing here?” Xia Ningxing’s eyes sparkled with surprise, her brows and eyes smiling as she bounced up to him.

“Just passing by, don’t get the wrong idea,” Lu Tingli said indifferently, glancing at her, arms crossed as he forced out an explanation.

“Oh! I see,” Xia Ningxing nodded her little head softly, her eyes misty, not bursting his bubble to keep him from getting angry and embarrassed.

What a “passing by”!

Go on, keep fibbing!

Lu Tingli had no idea he’d already been found out.

He then said, “I heard you wrapped up shooting?”

“Yep,” Xia Ningxing nodded.
