Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Aren’t People Allowed to Feel Shy?

After speaking, she even sighed, her helpless yet sweet demeanor nearly driving Jiang Wei mad.

Wen Qiao noticed Jiang Wei’s lips twitching noticeably twice, but they still remained in a lifted smile, and the little devil inside Wen Qiao immediately started jumping around.

She just loved that look on Jiang Wei—that look of not being able to stand her yet unable to do anything about it.

Jiang Wei, not giving up, continued, "Then let me take you there, I happen to be heading that way for an errand."

Jiang Wei really wouldn’t cry until she saw her own coffin, and Wen Qiao didn’t stop her, nodding in agreement, "Then I’ll trouble Sister Jiang Wei."

"No trouble."

"I really came at the right time, just in time for afternoon tea."

A crisp voice rang out, and Wen Qiao instinctively looked up.

The man was dressed in simple white clothing with black pants, no extra accessories, tall and straight in stature, with a somewhat ruggedly handsome face, exuding integrity. Wen Qiao, looking at him, automatically pictured him in a military uniform, which must have been very handsome.

This must be Ye Shengnan, the actor playing Huo Cheng, the male lead of "Red Makeup."

Ye Shengnan debuted at the age of ten, growing up in front of the audience and affectionately dubbed "national son"; he was always active in film and television. At 23, his first appearance on the big screen won him a Best Actor award and from then on, the "national son" successfully transformed into the "national husband."

"Red Makeup" was a female-centric drama, and having a film emperor like Ye Shengnan to support the female lead, especially with Wen Qiao, a newcomer smeared by scandals right from the start, really felt like a misplacement of his talents.

But this also showed how much Huasong cared about this drama.

"Film Emperor Ye is here."

"The assistant director won’t let me live it down; I really couldn’t push off the appointment this morning. As compensation, I’ll treat everyone to dinner later."

Only then did the assistant director smile, patting Ye Shengnan on the shoulder, "At least you’re sensible, but let’s skip dinner for now, as it’s uncertain how long we’ll be busy today. Let’s just owe it for now."

"Alright."

The assistant director urged, "Go change and get your makeup done; your female lead has been waiting for you for a while."

Following the direction the director pointed, Ye Shengnan saw two slender figures standing in a corner.

Jiang Wei had worked with Ye Shengnan on a previous production, but at that time she was the second female lead, and didn’t have much interaction with Ye Shengnan, the lead male. Seeing him arrive, she approached and said in a familiar tone, "Brother Ye."

Ye Shengnan nodded in acknowledgment.

Jiang Wei was about to say something more when she saw Ye Shengnan walking towards Wen Qiao.

Just as her enthusiasm reignited, a glint of gloominess flashed through Jiang Wei’s eyes.

Wen Qiao, apparently not expecting Ye Shengnan to come over, paused briefly before greeting him cordially, "Hello, Senior Ye."

"Hmm." Ye Shengnan extended his hand, "Pleasure to work with you."

Wen Qiao shook his hand, "Please guide me a lot, Senior Ye."

After a brief handshake, they let go.

"I’ll go get ready."

"Okay."

Ye Shengnan gave her another look before turning to head towards the makeup room.

Once Ye Shengnan’s figure had disappeared from the shooting location, Wen Qiao immediately turned and flicked Jiang Yao’s hand off her waist, pulling Jiang Yao out from behind her, "Look at you, zero self-respect! Why didn’t you just hide away? You were so excited when you saw Ye Shengnan, and when he came over, you acted like a scared quail."

Rubbing her reddened hand, Jiang Yao pouted, "Why, can’t I be shy?"

"Ugh." Wen Qiao finally realized how affected and nauseating her earlier behavior of messaging Fu Jinghen had been, "Don’t be so girly; it doesn’t fit your tough girl persona at all."
