Chapter 263 The Misunderstanding
Chapter 263 The Misunderstanding
In the next few days.
Jiang Bai clearly felt that the red rope hanging over his head had loosened.
Da Mimi really stopped trying to get him to meet He Shengming by chance, and even those blatant hints disappeared.
But the problem is...
Yang Mi's gaze towards him has completely evolved from that of a "top matchmaker" to that of a "Saint Mary."
During breaks in filming.
Yang Mi would always gaze at him from a distance with a look that was full of pity, sorrow, and even a hint of "my child, you have suffered so much."
That look left Jiang Bai completely dumbfounded.
"Why does Yang Mi look at me like that? It's exactly the same way I looked at that stray dog with a broken leg on the street yesterday!"
Although I don't understand why Yang Mi looks at him that way.
However, Jiang Bai still dared not let his guard down.
Da Mimi is a shrewd person; who knows if she'll turn around and introduce him to another type of boyfriend?
In order to preserve his integrity, Jiang Bai decided to try the "hiding" strategy.
Not only are they avoiding Teacher He, but they're also avoiding Da Mi Mi!
Then, an extremely bizarre scene unfolded in the studio.
.......
"Bai Zhi, I have some freshly cut watermelon here..."
Yang Mi, carrying a fruit platter, was about to walk over and show some warmth.
As a result, Jiang Bai acted as if he hadn't seen anything, didn't even reply, and dashed into the lounge.
"Teacher Bai Zhi, for tonight's scene together, how about we...?"
Just as He Shengming revealed a simple and honest smile, Jiang Bai nimbly sidestepped.
Using the explosive power of 12 points of stamina, he instantly teleported behind the assistant director, with a huge camera in between.
He Shengming: "......."
Yang Mi: "......."
The two stood there, looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Honey, did I wear too much makeup today?"
He Shengming stroked the stubble on his chin, sinking into deep self-doubt.
Why does Bai Zhi act like she's seen a ghost whenever she sees me?
Yang Mi sighed, her eyes filled with a sorrowful "I understand, I understand everything":
"Teacher He, don't blame her, she's doing it for your own good."
"Her brother... sigh, that's a name that can't be mentioned."
.......
These are a series of bizarre evasion incidents.
Not only were the two parties involved stunned, but Lin Xinru and others who had only been on set for a few days were also completely bewildered.
As the female lead in the drama, Lin Xinru is used to big scenes, but she has never seen this kind of "obstacle avoidance" filming method in her life.
"Xinru, don't you think that the new girl, Jiang Baizhi... is a bit strange?"
In the break room, Lin Xinru touched up her makeup while whispering to the actor next to her:
"Look, it's obvious that Teacher He Shengming is pursuing her. His eyes are practically burning with desire. It's one thing for her to avoid him."
"But why does she even avoid and ignore Mimi?"
"Aren't you afraid of offending Yang Mi? But judging from the situation, Yang Mi is quite nice to Jiang Baizhi and isn't angry at all."
Another actress also joined in, speaking mysteriously:
"I heard that Jiang Baizhi has social anxiety disorder."
"Look at her, aside from filming, she hardly ever speaks a word to anyone. She just hides in the dressing room all day eating, and she can eat the equivalent of four people's meals in one sitting!"
"Enough for four people?"
A hint of inquiry appeared in Lin Xinru's eyes.
"I find her acting incredibly captivating; she doesn't seem like someone with social anxiety."
"Could it be... that Yang Mi and He Shengming bullied that girl in private?"
"So, the only option is to channel grief and anger into a hunger?"
The moment this thought crossed their minds, the way people around them looked at Yang Mi and He Shengming changed.
Good grief, two top celebrities teaming up to bully a rookie genius?
This melon is quite big!
.......
The wind at Kyoto Film Studio carries a hint of awkwardness amidst the hustle and bustle.
Jiang Bai has been living a very nerve-wracking life these past few days.
He not only had to dodge He Shengming's greasy gaze with almost instantaneous speed, but also had to be constantly on guard against Yang Mi's compassionate eyes that seemed to say, "Child, your sister understands you."
however.
It's easy to avoid the dangers outside, but the "traitors" in your own mind are the hardest to guard against.
noon.
Jiang Bai carried four boxes of lunch back to the lounge.
The sound of weeping rang out again.
"Waaaaah... General, my great general..."
Deep in his mind, Zhang Yan, that little figure, had completely transformed into a human-shaped faucet.
Recently.
From the moment the girl opened her eyes in the morning until she removed her makeup at night, her crying never stopped.
The sobbing echoed in Jiang Bai's mind, mournful and pitiful, making Jiang Bai's temples throb.
[Zhang Yan (resentfully): "Jiang Bai...you heartless man...why are you hiding from the General? That one look he gave us just now broke my heart..."]
Jiang Bai sat in the lounge, eating the crew's braised pork lunchbox while responding:
"It's good that it's broken; it'll save him from staring at me all day long."
"Big sister, please wake up! That's He Shengming, not Zhou Yafu!"
"His armor was rented from the props department for two hundred dollars, do you understand?"
"Your Zhou Yafu is long dead!"
[Zhang Yan (crying loudly): "I won't listen! I won't listen! In this deep palace, he is the only one who has ever given me warmth... yet you won't even give him a chance to speak..."]
Jiang Bai took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the urge to gouge his brain out and wash it clean.
At first, he patiently offered some words of guidance, considering it was an "immersive simulation."
"Yan'er, look, once this show is finished, your role will have fulfilled its purpose."
"When the time comes, you'll return to dust, and I'll go back to school and be a role model."
"You're just making a scene here, ruining my mood, aren't you?"
But this kind of advice is clearly just flirting with a blind man.
Zhang Yan's crying didn't stop; instead, it reached new heights.
It even started playing those melancholic scenes with their own background music in Jiang Bai's subconscious.
Snow falls heavily, and the red walls stand alone.
General Zhou stood in the snow, his face filled with deep emotion, calling out in solitude and helplessness:
"Jiang Bai, my Jiang Bai, why are you avoiding me?!"
"Why is that? Tell me!"

Jiang Bai's chopsticks broke, and veins bulged on his forehead.
