3506 Rather Complacent When Making Public Displays of Affection

Yan Zhiqing didn’t see Xie Jiling. So when she saw Shi Xiaoya return, she asked, “Where did you go?”

“Jiling’s here,” Shi Xiaoya said softly and pointed out Xie Jiling for Yan Zhiqing.

Yan Zhiqing covered her mouth in delight. “As expected of a couple that just started dating. Their relationship is doing great. I bet they will be in the honeymoon phase for a while.”

“Is our relationship not doing great? Do we not spend every day together? Or are you getting bored with me?” Wei Wucai’s voice rang out coldly above Yan Zhiqing’s head.

Yan Zhiqing froze. She raised her head and found Wei Wucai, who had appeared behind her at some point unbeknownst to her.

Moreover, he had done so without making any noise at all.

“Hahaha…” Yan Zhiqing dryly laughed. “Oh, no. I’m just making fun of Han Zhuofeng and Xie Jiling.”

Yan Zhiqing hurriedly held Wei Wucai’s hand. “We see each other every day, but I miss you during the times when I don’t see you. Moreover, we still have an extremely passionate relationship even now.”

Wei Wucai gave her two cool laughs.

Shi Xiaoya was speechless. “…”

What wrongs had she committed that she had to be punished with this public display of affection?

Feeling annoyed, Shi Xiaoya turned Yan Zhiqing’s face toward her. “It’s time to touch up your makeup! Your eye makeup got smudged!”

After that, she grabbed a cotton swab and cleaned up some of Yan Zhiqing’s eyeliner that was smudged and wiped off the oil from Yan Zhiqing’s face. Then, she patched up the foundation a bit before using pressed cosmetic powder to fix the makeup.

The eye makeup wasn’t in a good state either, so she touched that up as well.

Someone else came over and fixed Yan Zhiqing’s hairstyle.

Wei Wucai continued to hang around. However, it didn’t matter since Yan Zhiqing wasn’t delaying the work by chatting with him.

When Shi Xiaoya was done touching Yan Zhiqing up, she told the latter, “I’m going to go watch what’s happening with Zhuofeng and Jiling.”

“I’ll go, too,” Yan Zhiqing said immediately.

“You’d better not. Your hair will become a mess with just one movement,” Shi Xiaoya said, taking joy in Yan Zhiqing’s misery. “Just be good and stay here.”

Yan Zhiqing was speechless.

Xie Jiling had just fled from Shi Xiaoya and was now behind Han Zhuofeng.

This was because there were way too many people by his side.

Additionally, the actor from earlier was right beside Han Zhuofeng, looking at the results of the scene he had just filmed.

Xiao Fengqing’s wound had already recovered by the time the matter from last time was resolved.

However, she was likely traumatized by that incident because she didn’t dare to approach Han Zhuofeng even now.

She was extremely quiet and well aware of her place in the set.

The next scene was hers.

Thus, Xiao Fengqing was currently sitting in her chair while deeply focused on refining her performance for the next scene.

There were many people around Han Zhuofeng, so Han Zhuofeng didn’t notice Xie Jiling.

Right now, he was expressing his opinion to the actor on how the latter should act in the next scene.

The actor expressed his opinion as well, and the two got into a rather lively discussion.

Consequently, Xie Jiling didn’t interrupt them and simply stood docilely behind Han Zhuofeng.

Everyone was busy with their own work. Nevertheless, it was unexpected that no one else noticed her either.

At last, the actor finished his discussion with Han Zhuofeng and left.

This was when Xie Jiling finally reached out with a finger and gently poked Han Zhuofeng’s shoulder.

Han Zhuofeng thought it was someone accidentally bumping into him because there were so many people around.

So, he didn’t pay any attention to it.

Seeing no response from Han Zhuofeng, Xie Jiling poked him another two times.

Initially, she was pretty nervous.

Their relationship had changed, so she couldn’t use her previously natural way of approaching him to face him.

She didn’t know how she should behave when she interacted with him.

As a result, Han Zhuofeng continued to ignore her.

This wore down Xie Jiling’s nervousness.

Upon seeing that there was still no response from Han Zhuofeng, Xie Jiling poked him three more times.

That actor who had been about to leave ended up noticing Xie Jiling.

The cast and crew knew Xie Jiling.

The actor had also joined them on the trip to Tacheng, so of course, he knew Xie Jiling.

At that time, Han Zhuofeng said that they were just friends.

However, everyone in the cast and crew already took the initiative to think of Xie Jiling as Han Zhuofeng’s girlfriend.

So, when this actor saw Xie Jiling, he grinned at her.

He even winked.

Obviously, this actor probably thought that Xie Jiling was here to see her boyfriend at his workplace.

And that she was playing a prank on Han Zhuofeng right now.

Of course, Xie Jiling’s current appearance certainly seemed like she was doing that.

Before Xie Jiling could even say anything, the actor already raised a finger to his lips, gesturing that he would stay quiet.

Then he made an ‘OK’ sign with his hand and quietly slipped away.

Xie Jiling was speechless.

Why were these people so good at understanding others?

However, this actor wanted to watch the action as well.

So, he didn’t actually leave.

Instead, he watched from a distance of a few steps away.

Shi Xiaoya walked over at this moment and saw the actor staying behind to watch.

She also stopped at around the same distance away from the couple.

The actor glanced at her and thought to himself, ‘Isn’t Shi Xiaoya an in-law of Han Zhuofeng?’

As such, he immediately asked her in a low voice, “Xiaoya, are Director Han and this young lady actually dating for real?”

In the past, Han Zhuofeng said he and Xie Jiling were just friends, and the cast and crew believed him.

However, their belief only lasted for a short time.

After all, Han Zhuofeng treated Xie Jiling genuinely well.

They hadn’t seen Han Zhuofeng treat anyone else as well as he treated Xie Jiling, even if they were just friends.

The people Han Zhuofeng normally interacted with the most were Shi Xiaoya and Yan Zhiqing.

Shi Xiaoya was Han Zhuofeng’s sister-in-law as well, so their relationship didn’t need to be mentioned.

Yan Zhiqing was someone Han Zhuofeng had great affection for as a long-time family friend, so she naturally couldn’t be compared to a normal friend.

Aside from those two, the only person Han Zhuofeng treated differently was Xie Jiling.

Back then, the cast and crew thought that even though Han Zhuofeng and Xie Jiling were just friends.

It was only a matter of time before they became a couple.

However, this wasn’t the case now.

The way Xie Jiling poked Han Zhuofeng earlier clearly seemed to have a sense of intimacy.

It didn’t give off the same vibe as their interactions in the past.

Shi Xiaoya gave the actor a thumbs up. “You’re extremely observant!”

“Wow, so it’s true!” The actor was pleasantly surprised. “In that case, we must congratulate him properly. No, we have to treat him to dinner tonight.”

“You should tell him. He’ll definitely be happy,” Shi Xiaoya said with a smile.

At this moment, Han Zhuofeng finally realized that something wasn’t quite right.

One poke could just be an accidental bump.

However, if the pokes were repeated, that couldn’t be an accident.

Han Zhuofeng took off his headphones and turned back to find Xie Jiling standing behind him.

Pleasantly surprised, he stood up and didn’t even care that his headphones had just fallen to the floor.

Seeing Xie Jiling, Han Zhuofeng blushed first.

“You’re here?” Han Zhuofeng asked with a flushed face while scratching his head.

Shi Xiaoya was speechless. “…”

Han Zhuofeng had been rather complacent when he made public displays of affection early this morning.

So why was he reacting like this now that he was seeing Xie Jiling in person?

Had he always been so pure and innocent?

“Mm.” Xie Jiling blushed as well, and she placed her hands behind her.

She unconsciously intertwined her fingers out of nervousness.

“It has actually been quite a while since I arrived. I left for the set right after my class ended,” Xie Jiling explained. “But I saw that you were working, and I didn’t want to disturb you.”
