Since Gu Jingxuan talked to Xu Chi, Xu Chi's state during filming has improved significantly. Even Director Jiang is more pleased with him and often helps him out. This has caused many people on the set to say that Xu Chi is even more like the female lead.
Xu Chi.
When Lu Qing found Xu Chi, Xu Chi was busy brushing through Weibo with his head down. He didn't dare to use his main account to follow Gu Jingxuan, so he could only secretly keep an eye on him with his alternate account, going online every day to see if Gu Jingxuan had any new updates.
"What's wrong?" Xu Chi had just finished laughing, and the curve of his lips had not completely subsided. He turned his head to look at Lu Qing with a twist, causing her to tremble slightly.
Because she had been paying special attention to Gu Jingxuan during the filming, she hadn't been able to take a good look at Xu Chi until now. But when Xu Chi smiled at her, her heart immediately started beating faster.
"Ah... This is a small dumpling made by my family, it tastes especially good. Would you like to give it a try?"
Lu Qing held up a small box, inside of which emitted waves of fragrance.
Xu Chi discreetly swallowed his saliva and glanced at the box a few times, but still refused Lu Qing's offer.
"I...I'll pass. Director Jiang has already asked me to control my weight, and I'm afraid if I eat it, I'll have to eat protein for several days again."
Xu Chi cannot be considered fat at all, in fact he is a bit thin, but there is some flesh on his face. After Director Jiang decided on his role, he told him that his face shouldn't look this chubby. So Xu Chi ate boiled chicken and egg whites for a whole month, and forcefully got rid of his baby fat.
Lu Qing couldn't help but be dazzled by the sight of the snacks. However, he could only bite the bullet and refuse her.
"Oh, I see..." Lu Qing's brows furrowed with disappointment. She was very beautiful, possessing the typical appearance of a well-known pretty girl in the entertainment industry.
Because Xu did not accept her stuff, this made her droop her eyelids and appear somewhat disappointed, making Xu Chi immediately feel that he had made a big mistake.
Stuttering, he said to her, "Um... can I... can I try one? Eating too much, Director Jiang... will scold me."
After hearing his words, Lu Qing immediately smiled and opened the box in her hand. She took a dumpling with her own hands and intended to feed it to Xu Chi.
Xu Chi, looking at the dumpling delivered to his mouth, immediately took it himself, saying, "I'll do it, be careful not to make a mess."
Lu Qing watched Xu Chi eat her own glutinous rice ball and happily walked away. In the distance, a camera captured this scene.
Before Xu Chi could even swallow the dumpling in his mouth, Gu Jingxuan tapped him on the back from behind, startling Xu Chi.
"Gu...Gu-ge...why are you here all swollen up?" Xu Chi's mouth was still filled with an unswallowed lump, causing his cheeks to puff up like a hamster.
Gu Jingxuan felt an itching sensation in his heart when he looked at it, wanting to reach out and pinch it, but also afraid of scaring this child.
"How? This film set belongs to you, and I'm not allowed to come?"
When Lu Qing arrived, Gu Jingxuan had already been sitting at the back. However, Xu Chi was too engrossed in looking at his phone that he didn't notice him.
Upon hearing Gu Jingxuan's words, Xu Chi shook his head in fright.
"No, no, no, that's not what I meant. I was just curious, that's all." Xu Chi was afraid that his words would be misunderstood by Gu Jingxuan, his face full of seriousness.
Gu Jingxuan particularly enjoys watching Xu Chi nervously explain things to him, with a face blushing crimson, making him look like a ripe red apple. So crisp and tempting, one would want to take a bite.
"I know you didn't mean it that way, I was just teasing you."
As soon as Gu Jingxuan's words came out, Xu Chi's face collapsed like a deflated balloon, and his small eyes stared at Gu Jingxuan.
"Gugu, you're really... so annoying..." Xu Chi muttered through clenched teeth.
Gu Jingxuan couldn't help himself and reached out to pinch Xu Chi's face in the end.
After finishing pinching, he posted his thoughts: "It's really quite soft, it seems like what your fans have been saying is true."
Xu Chi's breathing became lighter by a few degrees, and his face turned red in an instant.
"What... what fans... what are they saying..."
"It's your fans who say that you're so cute, and if they were to pinch you, you must be very soft." Gu Jingxuan had no sense of guilt when teasing a married person, and still looked at Xu Chi with a cheeky smile: "Because I often hear them say so, I wanted to try and see if it's true."
Xu Chi pretended to be shy and coquettish on the surface, but inside, he was overjoyed and thought, "Gu Ge, you can pinch me a few more times. It's not just my face that's soft."
