On the sets, everyone was very excited when they heard about Xin Mei, that she was returning to the sets tomorrow. Honestly speaking, everyone had started to love the way she acted. All the above, they liked her positive nature.
She was always down to earth and talked with everyone with politeness, unlike some other big stars.
Director Zhang was more than happy when he heard this good news. He was very happy that nothing dangerous had happened to Xin Mei and she was able to recover quickly.
The only person who was not happy was Zhou Mingyu. She was so happy when Xin Mei had an accident as per her plan. However, never in her wildest dreams she had thought that Xin Mei would not suffer any major injuries as expected by her.
"Xin Mei, why are you so d.a.m.n lucky?"
Not only that, she had bad luck with the accident of Xin Mei but she was also feeling bad because director Zhang had now openly declared to her that he had snipped her role from the movie.
"Zhou Mingyu, during the war scenes we will use your body doubles. So you will not be required to come on the sets regularly." He had informed her.
The good thing for her was that she was able to get some roles. She had given auditions for some upcoming movies and every time, she was pa.s.sing the auditions with excellence. This was something, which was keeping her sane.
Besides that, her father had also received an important contract in his life. Therefore, he was also happy and was not taunting or scolding her.
If only she knew that this was all happening according to the plan of Su Yuchen.
On the evening before Xin Mei was to return on the sets, Su Zixin arrived to meet her. In the absence of Su Yuchen, who was in his office, both of the friends chatted a lot. They also played video games.
"I can"t believe that brother is letting you join the filming in within three or fewer weeks. I thought he was going to tie you down on the bed." Su Zixin spoke with full surprise in his voice.
"Don"t ask me Zixin. I was even very afraid that he wouldn"t let me act in the movie after my accident. I am lucky that he is afraid of my anger." Xin Mei whispered in his ears, so no one could hear her, not even walls.
"By the way, what was the real reaction of everyone when they got to know that I am returning?" she asked with curiosity.
"Everyone was very happy and they are very excited of your return to the sets except for some female cast that you already know. I don"t know why they feel so insecure towards you." He shrugged. "And yes, that Tang Min was asking me a lot about you."
"Was he?" Xin Mei asked with surprise.
"Yup." Su Zixin nodded his head. "I think the next target of that playboy is you."
Xin Mei rolled her eyes when she heard him. "I don"t know why do you think so. Until now, he is good to me. He hasn"t said nor he has done anything to me which make me believe of his wrong intentions."
"Maybe my hunch is wrong." Su Zixin shrugged his shoulders.
Su Zixin and Xin Mei talked for some time before they again concentrated on their games. When Su Yuchen returned home, he found them playing in the games room.
He shook his head when he saw them fighting and yelling like kids.
When he had entered the house, he was able to hear their loud yells from a long distance. He did not need to find them after returning to home, their yells were the proofs that they were in the game room.
Su Yuchen tried to interrupt them in their games but Xin Mei shushed him off and soon enough, he was kicked out of the game room.
"Hubby, you are distracting me. Can you please leave the room and do something else?"
Su Yuchen looked at her with wide eyes before shaking his head. Sometimes, he wished to remove all the game equipments from his house, which took half of the attention of his wife but he was h.e.l.l afraid of her anger.
"Ok, I am leaving. I will be in the kitchen preparing dinner. Come down after finis.h.i.+ng your level."
He informed her and left the game room. He freshened up before making his way towards the kitchen. He started to prepare dinner for three.
He was in between making the dinner when he heard loud yells of Xin Mei and Su Zixin.
"Su Zixin, I will not leave you. I lose another round because of you," she yelled and ran after Su Zixin.
"Xin Mei, please forgive me. Next time I will play with more concentration."
"You said the same thing last time."
"This time I promise."
"I don"t want a promise. I want my revenge. Su Zixin stop running I will not leave you."
"Save me…help…save me…brother save me….."
Su Yuchen rolled his eyes when he heard cries of Su Zixin. Soon he entered the kitchen and tried to hide behind Su Yuchen.
"Brother, please save me from your wife."
"Su Zixin, come out from behind of Su Yuchen. No one can save you today." Xin Mei yelled.
To Su Yuchen, Xin Mei looked cute when yelling at Su Zixin. Her eyes were burning with anger and she had a vase in her hand, which she had hoisted up in the air.
"I am not coming in between you. Take your fight outside my kitchen." Su Yuchen raised his hands in surrender. "Su Zixin, I am not going to save you. Now leave my kitchen, I have dinner to prepare."
With wide eyes, filled with accusation, Su Zixin looked at his brother. He fumed and rushed out of the kitchen from another direction. Xin Mei followed after him.
From the kitchen, Su Yuchen looked at Su Zixin and Xin Mei. They were fighting like brother and sister. A smile left from the lips of Su Yuchen. He could remember his life in the orphanage when he saw them cas.h.i.+ng after one another like this.
Xin Mei finally forgave Su Zixin when he fell on her legs and promised that he would help her in winning the next level.
After having their dinner, they made their way towards the game room, much to the amus.e.m.e.nt of Su Yuchen. He was glad that he did not speak a word in their fight.
"Wifey, you should stop playing now." Su Yuchen entered in the game room and looked at the two kiddos.
"Two minutes hubby."
"It"s already one in the night. Do you want to get late for tomorrow"s shoot?"
Hearing him, Xin Mei jumped from her seat, "Zixin, this is last round."
Xin Mei quickly finished the game and made her way towards her room. Su Zixin also decided to return to his home because it was late at night and he had a shoot early the next day.
