"Are you disappointed in me?" Dai Shulan's smile quickly disappeared, she lowered her head, and softly said, "Then I'll give up on this plan!"
"You misunderstood me," Luo Ziling quickly explained, "I was just saying that your expectations for your life are quite high."
Dai Shulan didn't respond, instead, she looked at Luo Ziling with a puzzled expression.
"Originally, I thought you were just a student who would be very content with earning so much in royalties, living comfortably with modest wealth. I didn't expect you'd consider investing," Luo Ziling chuckled and said, "It's a bit surprising. I don't mean to belittle you, but I think you're quite good at planning your life. After all, if you can design a novel so well, it's only natural you can design your life too."
Dai Shulan finally relaxed, gave Luo Ziling a sweet smile, and quietly asked, "Do you support my decision, or not?"
"Of course I support it," Luo Ziling nodded without hesitation, "I think your decision to invest now is very wise. Lingyun Film and Television has just started, and those joining are considered founding figures. Who knows, you might become a key figure in Lingyun Film and Television in the future. A beautiful writer and editor combined would definitely catch many people's attention."
"You're exaggerating," Dai Shulan laughed, even more joyfully, "As long as you're not against it, I'll discuss it with Yuqing again. Actually, you all are much more impressive than me, achieving so much at a young age. It's really enviable and admirable."
"We have certain advantages, I have a mom who's unrivaled by others, she gave me a great starting point. As for Yuqing, she benefited from it too, so don't overestimate us, we're just ordinary wealthy second-generation kids. Just a bit purer and more hardworking than typical ones," Luo Ziling spoke very humbly.
"There are many with higher starts than you, but achieving so much at a young age, becoming a household name like you, there's only you. I don't believe it can happen without foundation and personal effort. You're already a national heartthrob, so many see you as a role model and an object of admiration!" When saying this, red hues appeared on Dai Shulan's face.
"You're treating me to a late-night snack, just to flatter me?"
Dai Shulan paused briefly and then shook her head, "Not at all. I wanted to thank you and talk about a few things with you."
"What do you want to talk about?"
"I'm writing a screenplay now, but I've never written one before, and I'm not sure if some scenes are good. I'd like to hear your opinion, is that okay? I've already given a copy to Yuqing, she said she'd give me feedback. I feel it needs a man's perspective too because men and women understand things differently." Seeing Luo Ziling hesitate, Dai Shulan quickly added, "If you don't have time now, maybe you can look at it when you have time."
"How about this, you send the digital version to my phone, I'll look at it before bed."
"Okay," Dai Shulan breathed a sigh of relief and agreed immediately.
Then the two started talking about adapting works.
Later, Dai Shulan mentioned what was said during the last contract signing.
"Regarding writing a novel based on you, have you considered it? Recently, I've talked with that famous urban novelist Xia Liuhui about your story, he's very interested, especially since you returned from your visit abroad, and he's already gathering information on you. If you're interested, you could discuss it with him; maybe your story could become a fantastic novel. If it's adapted into a TV or movie, it would surely be a hit."
"Let's find a time to chat about it," Luo Ziling didn't refuse.
He's not too keen on turning his life into a novel but wants to add some filming material to the newly established Lingyun Film and Television.
If they were to make a story based on him, no one would dare slack off, it would definitely become a fine story.
Seeing Luo Ziling agree with her suggestion, Dai Shulan was even happier.
During the conversation, she thought of something else and quickly said, "My relative Teacher Wu keeps talking about matchmaking for us. She's mentioned several times about having dinner at her place. I've always declined, and now I've run out of excuses. Maybe I'll clarify things with her, tell her not to bother, because you already have a girlfriend. Actually, she should know this, as long as she pays attention to online or school forum information, she'd know the situation. I really don't get what she's thinking!"
"Maybe she particularly likes me," Luo Ziling chuckled, "Thinks you and I make a great pair, which is why she hasn't given up."
Dai Shulan looked up at Luo Ziling, her cheeks turned red again, and her eyes glimmered.
After gazing at Luo Ziling for a moment, she quickly turned her gaze away, "No way, the gap between us is too wide. I'm just a regular student, and you're the national heartthrob in many people's eyes, definitely not a match. You and Qingyin make a well-matched couple. I hope one day you two walk down the red carpet, and you don't forget to invite me to the wedding."
"Let's not talk about this," Luo Ziling changed the subject, "In a few days, no, it should be tomorrow, we'll be shooting a public service ad for a disabled veterans' charity fund, without using professional actors. How about joining in for fun, playing a role in it?"
"Tomorrow?" Dai Shulan seemed surprised, "Shooting is supposed to happen tomorrow, and you haven't finalized the roles yet?"
"I'm the lead, Yuqing also has a cameo, all temporary actors. Just act naturally, I think you're pretty suitable. A group of handsome men and beautiful women together, definitely can create a great ad. If interested, you should come and join the fun."
Dai Shulan was tempted, hesitated for a moment, then said, "I'll ask Yuqing."
The two chatted casually and finished their food, then Luo Ziling suggested heading back.
Seeing it was nearly half-past eleven, Dai Shulan said nothing, stood up to pay.
Luo Ziling didn't argue with her, he let her handle the bill.
After paying, they leisurely walked back to school, chatting leisurely.
Not far from the school, a few cars slowed down and eventually stopped beside them.
Luo Ziling was surprised to see that it was Ouyang Feifei's convoy.
The car window slid down, revealing Ouyang Feifei's charming face, but she didn't greet Luo Ziling and quickly rolled the window up.
The convoy sped up and left Luo Ziling behind.
A moment later, Luo Ziling received a message from Ouyang Feifei.
"So you've conquered another pretty girl? Your desire to conquer is really strong."
Reading this message, Luo Ziling couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time.
