Chapter 96: Chapter 96 “She is mine!
Ji Zeqiu clung to Lin Xu, chatting backstage for a while until a crew member came over to hurry him to filming, then he reluctantly left.
“I have to go film now…”
“Go on, good luck with work,” Lin Xu encouraged.
“So…” Ji Zeqiu hesitated, glanced at her, his lips parted slightly, wanted to speak but stopped.
After struggling for a long time, he still couldn’t say what was on his mind, “You go back first, otherwise it will be dark later and not safe.”
“I just got here, and you’re rushing me to go back?” Lin Xu raised her eyebrow, teasing.
“What?” Ji Zeqiu was stunned and didn’t catch on.
“I booked a room in a nearby hotel, I’ll leave tomorrow.” Lin Xu said.
Hearing her words, Ji Zeqiu’s sad eyes suddenly sparkled, glowing with vitality.
Mother is not going back today, she wants to be with him!
Without Ji Tingyang around, it was a date just for him and his mother!
If they weren’t on set, didn’t need to film, and had no one to disturb them, it would be even more perfect.
Ji Zeqiu once again thought about retiring from filming.
But his mother still wanted to watch his TV dramas, so he suppressed the thought again.
“Then wait here for me, I will come right after I finish filming, make sure you wait for me!” Ji Zeqiu insisted, worried she might leave before he returned.
Lin Xu smiled, “Come to think of it, apart from that cliff assassination scene last time, I haven’t seen you film other scenes, can I go watch, I promise I won’t disturb anyone.”
Ji Zeqiu naturally couldn’t ask for more, and without another word, he took her to the set.
Ji Zeqiu found her a cushy chair, and fearing she would catch cold, he found a blanket to cover her, eventually he came over with a thermal flask, advising her like a child to remember to drink water.
The staff nearby whispered, “Who is this woman? Why is Teacher Ji so concerned about her?”
“This isn’t just concern, it is attentiveness.”
“Could she be some financier?”
Such things weren’t uncommon in the entertainment industry.
“You shouldn’t talk recklessly, be careful of being sued for defamation and infringement of reputation,” the agent suddenly appeared behind them, smiling amiably.
The few staff members got a fright, apologized repeatedly, and then scattered.
Just thinking that Lin Xu was still waiting on set, Ji Zeqiu became especially proactive in his shooting, thinking about finishing today’s filming quickly and then having a meal with his mother, and maybe a stroll after dinner.
Oh, right.
There seems to be a cinema nearby too.
Ji Zeqiu still remembered the matter of watching a movie.
What good movies have been released recently?
Which one should they watch tonight?
While the director was discussing the script, Ji Zeqiu had already scheduled his date with his mother in his mind.
In the upcoming solo scenes, he completed them all in one go, earning praise from the director throughout.
Whenever the director praised him, Ji Zeqiu would stealthily glance towards Lin Xu.
Would mother also be very happy, feeling proud?
When he caught the smile that Lin Xu sent his way, he felt elated.
He felt as buoyant as a child who is praised by a teacher in front of his parents.
Before the next scene was about to start, Ji Zeqiu glanced towards Lin Xu, suddenly freezing.
He saw a man standing beside Lin Xu, his bright eyes staring straight at her, mumbling under his breath, not knowing what he was saying.
His eyes narrowed slightly as he looked carefully and realized that the man was Zhou Hongwen.
What was he saying to his mother?
Why did his mother seem so happy?
Ji Zeqiu suddenly felt an indescribable discomfort surge in his heart, with a sour tide churning in his chest, and his complexion darkened.
Zhou Hongwen also had a shoot today and had arrived at the set early to wait.
He glanced at Ji Zeqiu, who was in the middle of filming, and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.
Those who attract fans with their looks, what skills could they have?
People nowadays are just too superficial.
He snorted coldly and looked away.
But his gaze suddenly intruded upon a delicate and clear cheek, abruptly capturing his attention.
Zhou Hongwen suddenly stood stunned, for a moment, it seemed as if the whole world had stopped, leaving only his throbbing heart, beating incessantly, along with her stunning, charming figure.
Blushing, he walked up to the woman, his voice trembling a bit with nervousness, “Hello, you.”
“Hello.” Someone greeted her, and Lin Xu responded with a greeting and a slight smile.
Her smile was sweet, blooming like a fresh flower, captivating and bringing ease to both mind and body.
Zhou Hongwen’s heart skipped a beat, feeling his face heat up, his cheeks surely flushed red, “Are you a staff member here, or a newly debuted artist? I don’t think I’ve seen you before.”
“Neither, I’m here to watch a family member film,” Lin Xu said.
“Oh? Who is it? I can ask the director to take special care of them, perhaps even add a few more scenes,” Zhou Hongwen stammered.
“Thank you.” Lin Xu just smiled and did not reply.
Zhou Hongwen felt a bit uneasy, hesitating for a while before finally gathering the courage, “Can, can I add you on a contact method?”
“You can not!”
Surprise flashed in Lin Xu’s eyes, and before she could speak, a firm voice came from behind him.
Ji Zeqiu rushed over with hurried steps, his expression panicked as he pulled Lin Xu behind him.
His gaze was cold and merciless, like the sharp edge of a knife gleaming with chill light, as if he was ready to dissect Zhou Hongwen’s body, sinister and terrifying, “Don’t project your filthy thoughts onto her!”
There were too many sleazy things in the entertainment industry, and he would not let those people touch his mother.
The flush on Zhou Hongwen’s cheeks faded, and he straightened his expression, “I didn’t have those thoughts, I just wanted to make friends with her.”
“Making friends is not allowed either!” Ji Zeqiu said dominantly, “She is mine!”
Zhou Hongwen was stunned for a moment, looking at their clasped hands and Lin Xu’s complete trust displayed towards him, he seemed to understand something, his eyes filled with loss.
So she had a boyfriend.
“Sorry for the interruption,” Zhou Hongwen’s gaze dimmed slightly, the corners of his mouth drooping a little.
Only after seeing him walk away did Ji Zeqiu’s tense body finally relax, turning to Lin Xu with a hint of grievance in his dark eyes.
Why did his mother have to talk to Zhou Hongwen?
Could his mother possibly like Zhou Hongwen?
The more Ji Zeqiu thought, the more uneasy he felt.
Lin Xu innocently blinked, “He came over on his own.”
“You can’t like him!”
“He is not my son, why would I like him?” Lin Xu laughed.
Upon hearing this, Ji Zeqiu finally showed a hint of happiness and excitement in his eyes, then quickly added, “Ji Tingyang can’t like him either, you can only like me!”
