Chapter 201 Sweet Emotions, Particularly Dazzling
The day's filming went fairly smoothly.
After leaving the film set, Ning Yao planned to go back to her small villa to rest, but she ran into Xue Jiashu on the way.
Xue Jiashu took the initiative to speak to Ning Yao, nodding slightly as if to apologize, but the smile on his face seemed insincere.
"Sorry, I couldn't resist touching your waist today."
There was a hint of mockery in her words. Ning Yao didn't want to accept Xue Jiashu's apology. She pursed her lips and continued walking forward, almost ignoring Xue Jiashu.
"You're exactly my type." Xue Jiashu said this behind Ning Yao's back, ignoring her attitude.
"I'm sorry, you don't fit my aesthetic standards." Ning Yao turned around, a beautiful smile curving her lips, a playful look in her eyes, completely unafraid of Xue Jiashu's teasing.
"It doesn't matter. A man can't win a woman's heart just by his looks," Xue Jiashu said to himself, his words carrying a hidden meaning.
"Your boyfriend is only eighteen, right? Boys like that don't really know how to get along with women, and they'll make you uncomfortable."
Ning Yao was a woman who had experienced many things in life, so she naturally understood what Xue Jiashu meant. She clenched her fist without making a sound, and felt the urge to hit someone again.
Xue Jiashu knew when to stop and left with a light laugh before Ning Yao could get angry.
Ning Yao may not have eaten pork, but she has seen pigs run.
It's common for senior actors with connections to bully junior actors on set.
Xue Jiashu was just a smooth talker; Ning Yao didn't take him seriously.
If he still doesn't know what's good for him, she can take matters into her own hands; after all, she can afford Xue Jiashu's medical expenses.
Before dinner, Ning Yao took a shower and half-dried her hair. Her dark hair was still a little damp and softly draped over her shoulders.
Someone called her name from outside the villa. The voice sounded unfamiliar. Ning Yao frowned, pushed open the door, walked to the edge of the corridor, and looked down.
A woman was standing downstairs, holding a gift box in her hand. When she saw Ning Yao sticking her head out to look, she smiled and waved the gift.
“I am Xue Jiashu’s assistant. He instructed me to deliver a gift to Miss Luo.”
"No need." Ning Yao refused coldly, turning and entering the house without looking back.
This Xue Jiashu is really like a stubborn plaster, impossible to remove no matter how hard you try, and to make matters worse, he's the male lead in her drama.
Ning Yao's phone vibrated, and she quickly went to check it. She thought it was Ning Moran, but the caller ID showed it was Wen Na.
"I've arrived at the film set. Can you come pick me up?"
"Okay, wait a moment, I'll be there soon."
After hanging up the phone, Ning Yao called Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue to go pick up Wen Na together.
"We didn't hear Wenna mention coming to the 'Palm of My Hand' production team when we were in school, did we?" Cui Mengmeng asked, somewhat puzzled. It's great that everyone in the dorm is on the production team; it's almost like we're still in school.
What's there to hide? Are you trying to surprise them?
Xin Yujue pursed her lips but didn't say anything, though her facial expression showed that she shared the same opinion as Cui Mengmeng.
Compared to Luo Xiyao, who was always hanging out with them, Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue clearly preferred being with Ning Yao, as it was more relaxed and stress-free.
Soon, the three of them descended to the halfway point of the mountain and met Wenna head-on.
Wenna walked in front, carrying nothing in her hands. Behind her followed two or three maids, and a woman in a suit, meticulous and with shrewd eyes, who seemed to be Wenna's manager or assistant.
"I'm so tired, this mountain is so high!" Wenna glanced at her three roommates and complained.
Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue exchanged a glance, a hint of schadenfreude in their hearts.
Miss Wen has probably never experienced this kind of exhaustion before. It's a pity that even if the Wen family is rich, they still can't match the prestige of President Wen.
They arrived by helicopter and even built a small villa!
"How far is the villa?" Wenna asked, frowning. She was clearly referring to Ning Yao.
"How did you know we had a small villa?" Cui Mengmeng asked curiously. It seemed that only people in the film crew knew about this.
Wenna was wearing a mink coat, and she was sweating profusely from climbing the mountain.
"Nonsense, this little villa was built for me, isn't it? I know it's strange," she said casually, loosening a few buttons.
"Made for you?" Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue said this almost at the same time, their eyes filled with shock.
This little villa was clearly built for Luo Xiyao. They all came in President Wen's plane, so how could they be wrong after seeing it with their own eyes?
Is Wenna suffering from delusions?
Noticing Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue's surprise, Wen Na smiled and looked at them.
"What's wrong? Why do you all look like that? Wasn't that built with money from Brother Tingye?"
The title 'Brother Tingye' stung Ning Yao a bit, and she turned her gaze away, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes.
"Did President Wen tell you that the villa was built for you?" Cui Mengmeng asked.
"Yes, he also arranged the role for me in the drama 'Palm of My Hand'. I only found out a couple of days ago, otherwise I would have told you back in school, wouldn't I?"
"You've already moved in, right? I mentioned to Brother Tingye that you're in the same production crew as me."
Wenna shrugged, her smile a little helpless, as if this was a surprise arranged for her by her beloved, tinged with a touch of sweetness.
Even the usually oblivious Cui Mengmeng realized something was wrong. Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue almost instinctively realized that Wen Na could also be President Wen's mistress.
And they didn't benefit from Luo Xiyao's fame, but from Wen Na's?
With her thoughts churning, Ning Yao pursed her lips tightly and silently ground her back teeth, but made no comment.
He took Wenna into the small villa, but there were no rooms left, so the two of them had to share a room.
Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue were already living together, so there was no reason for them to move out. Wen Na naturally moved into Ning Yao's house.
Wenna led her maid into the room, and the moment she saw the furnishings, her face lit up with joy, a sweetness she couldn't hide.
"It's exactly the same room I lived in when I was studying in Italy. Brother Tingye is so thoughtful." Wenna walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, stretched out her arms with great enjoyment, closed her eyes, and smiled sweetly.
Ning Yao found Wenna's surprised and sweet expression particularly irritating.
She thought the villa was built for her by Wen Tingye, but it turned out to be for Wen Na. What's even more ridiculous is that Wen Na was actually her college roommate.
A pang of sadness swept through Ning Yao's heart as she recalled her interactions with Wen Tingye in the kitchen. She abruptly turned her face away, clearly unwilling to stay in the villa any longer.
"There's only one bed here, and I'm not used to sleeping with others."
"I'll go to the hotel the film crew booked; there are still rooms available there."
Ning Yao said this with a smile, but there was no smile in her eyes.
