"I think I like you, and of course, I might like you even more in the future, a kind of liking I’ve never experienced. If there’s no one you like, then maybe you can like me."
All day, Bo Yan’s words echoed in Yuran’s mind like a curse, relentlessly circling. Last night, after Bo Yan had spoken, he leaned in and bit her lower lip, causing her to tear up from the pain.
By the time she had recovered, wounded and resentful, Bo Yan had already returned to his room.
In the memories of her original self, from what she crudely understood, Bo Yan was not the type to express his emotions outwardly, and yet he was so direct and simple, going straight to the point.
The one who had been soul-swapped, that was him, right?
Moreover, the matter of liking Yuran was something Fu Yuran herself refused to consider.
When exactly did Bo Yan start having feelings for the current Yuran?
Could it be because of that night’s scene together?
No, no, no, thinking this way seemed like praising her own acting skills, which were quite good...
She pondered all day and couldn’t figure out why she was favored, but asking seemed dangerous. That heart-stopping kiss from last night, though she had been with Yinchao for many years, had been merely pecks on the corner of her lips.
Such intense exchanges seemed a bit overwhelming for her.
Also, just the thought of dating the great movie star Bo Yan made her feel like she would be crucified and interrogated, right?
It was too terrifying, too dangerous.
She must keep a safe distance.
The contract for "Glory With You, Worthy All the Way" was signed by Qi Younian, and by the time it reached Yuran’s hands, there was also the business license of Ran Studio, signifying the establishment of their collaborative studio.
Yuran looked at Qi Younian in surprise, "You said it, and you did it so quickly."
"Your work schedule is imminent, if not quickly, how will we collaborate with others in the future? I hear from Xuan Ze that the filming is about to start."
Yuran looked at him in shock, "Didn’t you say we were going to wait?"
Qi Younian nodded, "Filming can pick an auspicious day, but it doesn’t mean entering the crew immediately. Everyone is aware of your schedule; don’t worry. It’s already December, and you will have holidays in January. Timing-wise, it’s about right. You know, the film spans a large time frame, including scenes from spring, summer, autumn, and winter.
Most of the time will be spent abroad, and you’ll need a lot of time to join the crew. The cycle will require at least two hundred days.
Xuan Ze asked me to check with you if excluding your school times, they can arrange your timing, no problem, right?"
"Of course!" Yuran said flatly, "It should be so."
Qi Younian responded, "That’s settled then. There’s another thing. The shooting of ’Empress of a Generation’ has moved into post-production. I heard from friends in the circle that ’Empress of a Generation’ has chosen the Spring Festival slot, typical of Yinchao’s tactics.
I think he will exploit your fame for a publicity wave, maximizing use, shamelessly unbounded."
Yuran paused briefly, "No harm, let them be smug for a couple of days. We’re in no rush. The days ahead are long, and it’s still uncertain who will have the last laugh."
Qi Younian looked at her thoughtfully, "You have plans?"
"Naturally. As the studio gets on the right track, we need a showpiece. ’Empress of a Generation’ was your lead script. Can’t you write another script that surpasses ’Empress of a Generation’? Starting the year with a blockbuster is usually how it’s done. Let’s make a big splash. If we don’t discomfort Yinran Entertainment a bit, I’d feel uneasy. Shall we?"
Qi Younian laughed, his smile tinged with sarcasm, "Let’s go for it. We’re holding quite a bit of money anyway, just wondering where to spend it."
