“Alright, let’s go back and get ready.”

“Aye.”

The little assistant followed behind him quickly and couldn't himself but asked, “Then, are you still planning on joining the temple when the shoot is over?”

Luo Xiu stopped all of a sudden, turned around, and asked with a smile that wasn’t a smile. “Why wouldn’t I?”

The little assistant, “… …”

Yup, he was a man alright.

After standing there motionlessly for a few seconds, Zong Shizi recollected herself and she was shocked and enlightened.

She turned around and looked behind herself. The door to the conference room was shut and they could still hear some soft voices coming from the inside.

Recalling the little screenwriter who was standing in front of her fighting for Luo Xiu while trying to control her own anger, Zong Shizi felt very complicated.

After sending away both Zong Shizi and Luo Xiu, Gu Nian continued to reason with the two directors while trying to stop herself from having a break down.

“Director Lin, I am a screenwriter and not an actress. When have you ever seen a screenwriter doing the acting part in person?”

“Nobody asked you to be an actress.”

“A body double is still an actor!”

“You can’t even call this a body double. It’s just a short scene of you falling onto a lap and getting back up from it. Only your back would be seen and Zong Shizi will even dub the dialog later on. What kind of body double is that?”

Assistant Director Lin shrugged, gesturing that this was out of his hands.

Geng Hongyu hrumphed and said, “Zong Shizi, Screenwriter Gu is asking. Don’t you have something that you want to say to her?”

“… …”

Zong Shizi, sitting on the couch in the corner with her hands rested on her knees, was called out all of a sudden. She only had the time to quickly looked away from the clear and tall man.
