Sweet Nothings

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

Lu Gan was confused by Song Ci’s stare.

Song Ci smiled.

“It’s nothing. Let’s go and eat. I can’t stay long because there are scenes to shoot tomorrow and the day after.”

!!

“Okay.”

Lu Gan missed Song Ci, but he did not want her to delay work for him.

Song Ci asked, “Are we going to eat outside or in the hotel?”

Lu Gan deliberately sighed.

“I want to have a romantic dinner with you, but Little Suo and Yujin might feel left out.”

“You’ve brought Yujin and Little Suo along?”

Song Ci was surprised.

“Aren’t you happy?”

Song Ci nodded.

“Of course! Then let’s hurry up and take a taxi to the hotel.”

“Alright.”

The couple sat in the back seat. Song Ci could not help but lean on Lu Gan. It was a sweet feeling after their short separation.

“Why didn’t you tell me earlier that you were visiting?”

“If I did, I wouldn’t be able to see your surprised face.”

A faint smile appeared on Lu Gan’s face. He reached out to pull Song Ci into his arms.

Song Ci looked up at Lu Gan with sparkles in her eyes. She leaned closer and kissed him on the chin. Then, she said shyly and happily, “I’ve missed you.”

“Really? I thought you were too busy making new friends.”

Song Ci thought that Lu Gan’s jealousy was cute.

“You’ll always be on my mind.”

“For real?”

Lu Gan squinted his eyes.

Song Ci touched Lu Gan’s face and said, “Mr. Lu, please don’t drink too much vinegar.”

Lu Gan sighed.

“If I’m not jealous, then our relationship will be boring.”

Song Ci could not help but laugh.

“Anyway, how have you been? Were you busy?”

“I’m fine. Your dad visited me two days ago.”

“Why is he looking for you?”

Song Ci was puzzled.

“What else? It’s about the Song Corporation. He gave you such a big asset, so he wants something back from me.”

“Just ignore him!”

Song Ci was displeased.

“How can I do that? I’ve already promised him a few projects.”

“Huh?”

“You’ll have a new title when you return home.”

Lu Gan tapped the tip of Song Ci’s nose.

Song Ci was dumbfounded. Regardless, she chose to remain silent and hugged Lu Gan.

Suddenly, Song Ci’s phone received a message. It came from her previous work’s chat group.

[ The producer told me that our show is about to air. ]

[ That’s quick. ]

[ Yea. It was supposed to be next month, but there was a change in schedule. ]

[ We’ll have to focus on the publicity. ]

[ I hope nothing goes wrong. ]

[ Why was ours chosen to be pushed forward? ]

[ Apparently, fans and netizens were expressing their eagerness. So, they gave us the green light! ]

[ Let’s pray for good results. We’ve all worked so hard. ]

The chat group consisted of a lot of people. It included the cast, director, producers, and more.

Song Ci was also surprised by this piece of news.

‘This is so sudden. However, I’m sure the producers know what they’re doing. I just need to cooperate with everyone.’

Song Ci put away her phone.

Lu Gan asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Take a guess.”

Song Ci raised her eyebrows.

“Is it related to your work?”

Song Ci nodded.

“Smart! The drama I’ve previously worked on will be aired soon.”

“That’s great. If it’s successful, you’ll become famous.”

Song Ci waved her hand.

“It won’t be that easy. Even if the show becomes popular, the main leads will be the ones receiving the most spotlight. I’m just a supporting character.”

“But you’re so beautiful. Those who don’t pay attention to you have no taste.”

Lu Gan’s words touched Song Ci.

“Did you eat a lot of candy earlier? Your words are so sweet.”
