"Yes, Summer, you just need to look out the window. Good, let your hand glide through your hair. OK, very perfect! Lights, camera ready!"
"Alright, that's a wrap for this shot. Makeup, touch up Summer's makeup. We're moving on to the next shot soon!"
Xinran's job today was to shoot a shampoo commercial. At the request of the advertisers, the set was designed to look like a bathroom. She appeared in a flowing lace bathrobe, her pre-wet hair alluringly sticking to her neck. Holding a bottle of the endorsed product, she sat by the bathtub, constantly changing poses while the director captured the beautiful scenes he wanted. As the director called for a wrap, Wu Jie rushed forward with a large bath towel to wrap Xinran tightly and then used a clean towel to dry her damp long hair.
"Wu Jie, I'm fine, no need to be so nervous!" Xinran felt Wu Jie's gentle fingers gliding over her head; it felt so comforting, like being pampered by her mother.
"It's been getting colder lately in the set; it's so chilly here. You've been busy working all day like a spinning top. What if you get sick from exhaustion?" Without stopping his movements, Wu Jie advised her with an air of maturity.
"Xinran, I just spoke with the director. He is very satisfied with today's shooting conditions and said you worked well together. Once your hair is dry, we can leave," Jerry said as he walked over and plugged in a nearby hairdryer.
"Alright, but I'm really tired today. You have to drive me home!" Xinran tugged at the large bath towel around her and playfully murmured to Jerry.
"Sister Xinran, with how you treat Brother Jerry, anyone unaware would think you two are dating!" Wu Jie smiled slightly and teased.
"If I had such a considerate boyfriend like Jerry, that would be my blessing!" Xinran winked at Jerry.
What she didn't say was that if Jerry were her boyfriend, she could at least see him every day and talk to him daily. Unlike that other person who seemed to have vanished into the crowd; she hadn't seen or heard from him since. At first, that longing gnawed at her heart continuously. But as days turned into weeks and she took on more work—busy filming, endorsing products, attending events—she found herself returning home at night so exhausted that she could fall asleep without even showering. She had begun to get used to life without him, accustomed to not thinking about him despite her fatigue and learned to hypnotize herself into believing he had never been part of her life.
After everything was settled, Xinran and her two companions left the set. Dressed in a dark green trench coat, Xinran's face showed signs of fatigue. It seemed she would have another night of sweet dreams ahead of her. In fact, this kind of life wasn't bad; at least she felt quite fulfilled!
"Summer, we received news that you and Augus haven't seen each other for a long time. Is there a crack in your relationship?"
"Or have you two already broken up and are just hiding it from each other? Please share with us, was Augus's last proposal just for show?"
"I'm sorry, but Summer has been working all day and is very tired. She will not be accepting media interviews, so please step aside!" Jerry was surprised to see the paparazzi blocking the entrance to the set. Recently, Xinran and Augus had indeed not met often, but that was because this girl had packed her schedule full. Other than going back to her apartment to sleep, she hardly had time for anything else. Neither of them had spread any rumors about a breakup, so how did the paparazzi catch wind of this? And where did this rumor come from?
"Did we guess right, and that's why you're afraid to speak up? Summer, have you already been dumped by Augus?"
Xinran furrowed her brows helplessly as she looked at the aggressive paparazzi. She really didn't want to respond at all. No matter what she said at this moment would be misinterpreted by the paparazzi, and her words would be exaggerated until they distorted her original meaning, leading to the conclusion that even if she hadn't broken up with Augus, it would still turn into a story of a love gone wrong!
