Chapter 3966: A Perfect Match (162)
She hadn’t liked Hua Jin in the past because rumors had it that he behaved like a big shot who bullied newbies and fellow actors on the crew.
That was just a show of his rebellion, his way of standing up to the rules of the entertainment industry. Defiance against those who suppress him. Unlike many celebrities, Hua Jin was forced into the entertainment industry. He was tossed about in the rough waters of the entertainment industry, but he maintained the innocence of a child.
In the context of his past, Liang Yin understood why he had reacted so violently when he found out that the director had asked her to discuss the script that night.
“Liang Yin, I regret it.” As he spoke, he turned to face her. There was a certain intensity in his expression. “You’d better never set foot in this circle. You can’t afford to lose.” He was a victim in the first place. Why would he drag Liang Yin down with him? There was too much darkness and injustice in the circle to begin with. Liang Yin should not have stepped in.
She was stunned for a moment, and smiled. “I used to think you were a perverse and rebellious idol. Actually, Hua Jin… don’t you realize that you’re a very gentle person?”
The actor was puzzled by her words. “Gentle?”
“Although you have a vicious tongue, the fact is, you always care for others. Thank you. Thank you for being so concerned about me.”
They exchanged a glance and smiled at each other.
Liang Yin said with a giggle, “Besides, if I were to really enter the industry, many actresses would be out of a job.”
Hua Jin couldn’t help challenging her. “What do you mean by that?”
“Look, I’m good at acting, and I’m pretty, and my fee is so affordable. Isn’t it obvious that I’m a lean, mean compet.i.tor for a job?”
The actor burst out laughing at that. “Pfft…”
“That’s right!” Liang Yin subconsciously reached out and rubbed his face as if she were coaxing a child. “Oh, why are you so cute when you smile!”
The man slapped her hand away in anger and amus.e.m.e.nt. “Stop it.”
“I mean it!” Liang Yin pouted and said, “You should smile more!”
The actor gave a crooked smile, reached up and pinched her cheek as well.
The next day.
Liang Yin had gone to attend to some matters and was not at the hotel. Hua Jin had a shoot hence he went on set. There, he ran into the a.s.sistant director.
It was rather strange.
He and Meng Hao had a huge argument on the phone just the night before. When they ran into each other, Meng Hao smiled brightly at Hua Jin in the presence of Director Gu. However, Hua Jin did not give him much face and threw him a dirty look. Meng Hao was infuriated by the actor’s reaction, but could only swallow his anger.
Just as Meng Hao was about to have a “talk” with Hua Jin after filming, Qin Zhou unexpectedly dropped in for a site visit. It was a rare occasion that Qin Zhou would pay a visit to the set. This unprecedented move caught the actor off guard.
“What brings you here?”
Qin Zhou didn’t have a real reason for visiting the set, he simply felt like doing so. Instead of answering the actor’s question directly, he sat down in the waiting area like a big shot. The actor immediately served tea to the big boss.
Big Boss Qin spoke. “I don’t think I’ve visited your set since you started filming. Since I’m free today. I’m here to check on you so that you don’t start feeling as though you’ve been orphaned.”
The actor was dumbfounded.
Struck by a sudden thought, Qin Zhou smiled as he recalled the actor’s reaction to seeing him. “You seem to know that I already know about that matter.”
“What matter?”
“That you two have already swapped back into your own bodies.”
The actor chuckled at that.
