Chapter 59 Lu Han? Yang Mi?
She rambled on, trying to find a topic, when she suddenly realized that she had no idea what she wanted to ask.
Su Yu gave her a strange look: "Which one are you talking about?"
"It's that one, uh... you just said you were going to film with her in Xiamen..."
"Chen Duling?"
"Yes, yes, what do you think of this actress?"
"It's quite pretty~"
Upon hearing this answer, Li Yitong stretched her foot out from under the covers again and kicked Su Yu hard.
Su Yu collapsed to the ground in pain.
"I mean acting skills!"
"Alright, so when you were filming with female celebrities, were you ever subjected to any unspoken rules or exploitation?"
Li Yitong bent down and leaned closer, scrutinizing him intently.
"Pfft, what kind of question is that?"
"Oh, as the older sister, why should I care about this?"
Li Yitong emphasized in a serious tone, "Our Su Yu has a face that attracts unwanted attention. I have to check if anyone has any ill intentions towards you. Besides, I saw that you came back even more handsome after you went out to act. Something's fishy, definitely something's fishy!"
Li Yitong wasn't exaggerating; this was her honest feeling. She hadn't seen Su Yu for almost half a year, and the kid had secretly become quite handsome!
No wonder she keeps getting roles, but could it be because some older women have their eyes on her face, and that's why...?
"Hey, you haven't sacrificed yourself for art yet, have you?"
"I've already dedicated everything to my career."
"Fine, I'm going to visit the set tomorrow!" Li Yitong said, pouting angrily.
"You don't want to lose your job at the dance class, do you?" Su Yu chuckled and teased her.
"..."
Li Yitong immediately deflated.
"Okay, go to sleep. I have to go to the film set at seven tomorrow morning."
"oh."
Li Yitong shrank back into the blanket, wrapping herself up like a silkworm cocoon.
Su Yu lay back down on his makeshift bed and closed his eyes.
The night was deep, and the hustle and bustle of the distant city was slowly receding, with the occasional distant barking of dogs coming from outside the window.
"Su Yu," Li Yitong suddenly spoke again.
"Um."
"Are you serious about bringing me into the entertainment industry?"
"certainly."
There was a few more seconds of silence.
"I'm serious about it too. I'll practice dancing hard and get myself into top shape. I'll come when you're ready."
Li Yitong said earnestly, and Su Yu grinned upon hearing this:
"How about we both give it our all, go all out, and conquer the entertainment industry together?"
"Hahahaha, I'll play along to the end!"
Silent all night.
As the morning sunlight streamed in, Su Yu, still half asleep, vaguely heard some rustling sounds coming from the kitchen.
I didn't expect that sleeping on this floor for a night would be more comfortable than sleeping on the bed in the hotel where the film crew was staying.
The kitchen was filled with the sounds of spatulas clapping and clapping, the crackling of oil, and Li Yitong's cheerful humming.
Su Yu sat up from his cot and rubbed his neck.
The blankets on the bed were neatly folded, and a set of folded clothes was placed on the pillow. The creases had been ironed out, and even the neckline of the T-shirt was neatly trimmed. These were the clothes that Su Yu had changed out of yesterday.
After changing, Su Yu went outside.
"Awake?"
Li Yitong peeked out from the kitchen doorway, her hair casually tied in a bun with a few stray strands sticking to her forehead. She wore a pink and white checkered apron and held a spatula in her hand.
Underneath the apron, she was still wearing that loose white T-shirt and shorts, her bare feet on the floor.
"Wait two more minutes, the fried egg will be ready soon. I put a new toothbrush in the bathroom for you, the blue one, don't use the wrong one."
Su Yu leaned against the bedroom door frame, watching her turn around and return to the stove, tiptoeing to reach the salt shaker in the cupboard.
"Why are you staring at me?" Li Yitong asked without turning her head.
"When did you become so virtuous?"
"Have you forgotten who took care of you since you were a child?!" Li Yitong turned her head and glared at him.
Go brush your teeth!
"Aww~"
When he came out of the bathroom, breakfast was already laid out on the small coffee table in the living room.
Two bowls of millet porridge, two fried eggs, a plate of finely shredded pickled vegetables, and a few slices of slightly charred toast.
The edges of the fried egg were crispy and golden brown, while the yolk remained runny.
"That's all we have at home," Li Yitong said, taking off her apron and sitting cross-legged opposite him. She picked up her bowl of porridge and said, "The toast was bought yesterday, it's a bit dry, but it'll have to do with this."
Su Yu picked up a fried egg and took a bite.
"Is it good?" she asked.
"good."
"What do you mean by 'it's alright'? Would it kill you to say it's delicious?!"
"It's so delicious, so incredibly delicious! It tastes just like my mom's cooking when I was little. My mouth is watering..."
Li Yitong chuckled at Su Yu's joke, and the two chatted casually while eating.
He suddenly realized that waking up like this every morning wouldn't be so bad.
However, this morning tranquility did not last long.
Su Yu had just put down the bowl and picked up his phone to check the time when the screen lit up, and he was stunned for a moment.
The unread message notifications filled three screens.
WeChat, SMS messages—the numbers on every red dot are jumping up.
The most outrageous one is a group chat called "The Lost Tomb: Main Cast Group", which has been flooded with 99+ messages.
Ignoring all the other random messages, he first clicked on the message about Tangyuan at the top.
Tangyuan's message was sent from 11 p.m. last night to 6 a.m. this morning, with a gap of about three hours in between. It was clear that she had also stayed up late and gotten up early, which made Su Yu feel a little ashamed.
"Is Su Yu here? Do you know what information I got during my on-site meeting today?"
"Hey, guess who Wu Xie, the male lead in this drama, is!"
After a short while, Tangyuan continued speaking to herself:
"Fine, I can't hold it in anymore, it's Lu Han!"
"You know him? He's Luhan from EXO, he just left EXO last year and came back to China, he signed with H&R Century Pictures, he's a top-tier celebrity!"
"This 'Tomb Raider' series was tailor-made for him as his first project back in China by H&R Century Pictures. Almost all of their resources were focused on this project, and they even went so far as to pay Yang Mi an exorbitant fee to join the cast!"
Su Yu was already somewhat shocked upon seeing this.
In this life, Lu Han also returned to China last year, but unlike his previous life, he signed with Huanrui Media after returning to China.
Unlike ordinary signed artists, Lu Han actually joined as a partner.
The two parties established an independent Lu Han Studio, with Huanrui responsible for providing professional services such as publicity and brokerage. This means that he has a high degree of autonomy and decision-making power and is not overly bound by the company. This is actually the cooperation method that Su Yu planned with Jiaxing.
What surprised Su Yu was something else: how come Yang Mi was in this Huanrui drama?
