Chapter 59 My Mom Isn't Home Tonight
"If you say that, you're underestimating yourself a bit too much."
"I'll say it again: as the director, I'm very satisfied with your portrayal of Ma Jiaqi."
"Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to go over the scene with you on set. I would just ask you to reshoot it again and again until I'm satisfied," Chen Zhou said.
"Did you really show me no special leniency at all on set?" Liu Yifei asked.
"Of course not."
"When it comes to acting standards, I apply the same standards to everyone."
"At most, they'll just spend more time on you because you're the female lead, that's all," Chen Zhou said.
"So, do you think I'll be able to win an award if I participate in the Shanghai International Film Festival this time?" Liu Yifei asked.
"I think it's okay," Chen Zhou replied directly, without beating around the bush.
Upon hearing this reply, Liu Yifei immediately beamed with joy, her previous frown vanishing instantly.
Regardless of whether Chen Zhou meant well, she listened attentively to his words.
Even though she didn't win the award in the end, she felt that Chen Zhou's words were enough.
Afterwards, Chen Zhou and Liu Yifei started shopping.
Although Liu Yifei is a big star, she is no different from a little girl in private.
They traveled around in Chenzhou.
I saw someone selling candied hawthorns by the roadside, so I bought two skewers.
Anyway, the whole trip was all about eating, drinking, and having fun.
While playing, Chen Zhou and Liu Yifei entered an amusement park and stood in front of a dance machine.
Seeing Liu Yifei staring intently at the dance machine, Chen Zhou asked, "What's wrong? Are you interested in dancing?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Yifei's face lit up with pride:
"Hehe, you don't know, do you? Actually, a few years ago, I originally planned to debut as a singer-dancer."
"I not only released a music album, but I also filmed a music video."
Upon hearing this, Chen Zhou vaguely remembered that there seemed to be such a thing.
Then, Liu Yifei took out her phone and handed it to Chen Zhou: "Can you record a video for me? I'll dance for you."
Chen Zhou nodded.
Liu Yifei picked a dance song and started dancing on the dance machine.
In terms of pure dance professionalism, Liu Yifei is certainly no match for Jing Tian, after all, Jing Tian has formally studied at a dance academy.
But actually, Liu Yifei danced quite well; at least she seemed to enjoy it.
However, while jumping, due to the large range of motion, Liu Yifei's glasses accidentally fell to the ground.
Just as Liu Yifei was about to pick it up.
Just then, someone shouted from not far away, "My God, is that Liu Yifei?"
"Wow, it really is Liu Yifei! Even though she's wearing a mask, I can still recognize her."
"I was actually in the same place as Liu Yifei."
"I'm a huge fan of hers!"
Several girls stood there exclaiming in surprise.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Liu Yifei gave up her plan to jump.
He picked up the glasses and ran away with Chen Zhou.
Otherwise, if word spreads like wildfire, it will be too late for her and Chen Zhou to leave.
This is one of the downsides of being a celebrity; you can never really have fun.
Leave the amusement park.
Chen Zhou and Liu Yifei were walking on the street again.
"Where do you plan to go next?" Chen Zhou asked.
Liu Yifei is considering where to go.
Her phone rang just then.
When she took it out, she found that Zhang Liangying had called her.
"Feed? Is something wrong?" Liu Yifei asked.
"Xixi, where are you?" Zhang Liangying asked from the other side.
After a moment's thought, Liu Yifei decided not to hide anything: "Director Chen and I are out shopping."
"What? You two are secretly dating?" Zhang Liangying exclaimed from the other side.
"Huh? Really? Sisi and Director Chen are dating? They're really talking?"
"Sisi is so unfair, she didn't even tell us about this." The person who said this was clearly Shu Chang.
Liu Yifei smiled and explained:
"No, Director Chen and I just went out for a normal stroll, it didn't count as a date."
"It's normal to go shopping with friends, I often go shopping with you guys too."
"Sisi, it's already this late, and you're still planning to keep it from us? Really." Zhang Liangying clearly didn't believe her.
"Really, I'm not lying to you." Liu Yifei was still trying to explain, but she was actually very happy.
Being misunderstood by others is not always a bad thing.
"Okay, okay, you can say whatever you want."
"Shuchang and I called you to ask if you're free right now, we'd like to come over and hang out."
"It's been a long time since we've all gotten together. We're all in Kyoto this time, but we'll all be busy again in a couple of days," Zhang Liangying said.
Liu Yifei didn't answer immediately, but first looked at Chen Zhou and asked, "What do you think? If you think it's not okay, I'll reject them first."
Compared to her two best friends, the person Liu Yifei values most is Chen Zhou.
She couldn't possibly abandon Chen Zhou and go live with her best friend, could she?
"It's okay, just hang out with them. I don't mind having a couple more girls," Chen Zhou said.
With Chen Zhou's consent, Liu Yifei didn't hesitate and immediately told the other side, "You guys go straight to my house, Director Chen and I will be there right away."
"Okay," Zhang Liangying agreed.
At this point, both parties hung up the phone.
"Are we going to your house?" Chen Zhou asked.
"Yeah, it's already so late. Apart from a few small stalls, most of the entertainment venues outside are about to close."
"It's no fun staying outside any longer, you might as well come to my house."
"We can play some small games or something," Liu Yifei said.
"Wouldn't that be too much of a bother for your aunt?" Chen Zhou asked.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yifei immediately took a step forward:
"Director Chen, aren't you being a little too concerned about my mother?"
"What do you mean by that? You wouldn't possibly think I have any feelings for your mother, would you?" Chen Zhou said, both amused and exasperated.
"Hmph, don't let my mom's age fool you, she's still a great beauty."
"Even if you really do fall for my mom, I won't be surprised," Liu Yifei said.
Chen Zhou was speechless: "What kind of brain circuit is that?"
"Pfft, I was just joking with you, why did you take it so seriously?" Liu Yifei couldn't help but break down.
She just wanted to tease Chen Zhou.
How could she possibly think that her mother and Chen Zhou had any relationship?
Unless Chen Zhou is the kind of old cow who wants to eat young grass.
Chen Zhou reached out and flicked Liu Yifei's forehead.
Liu Yifei groaned in pain, clutching the spot where she had been flicked.
"Let's see if you dare to joke about me again," Chen Zhou scolded.
Liu Yifei stuck out her tongue, looking delicate and cute.
Then she explained to Chen Zhou, "Actually, my mom isn't home tonight."
As she said this, Liu Yifei's face suddenly flushed.
Her tone also became very soft and cute.
It's like wanting to express something meaningful, but simply not being able to say it out loud.
"Oh, so Auntie isn't home tonight!" Chen Zhou said with a serious expression.
