Not long after Gu Jingxuan posted on Weibo, Lu Qing's manager also posted on Weibo.
"We, Lu Qing and Xu Chi (@Xu_Chi_Xu), have none of the matters that you mentioned between us. We are deeply sorry for this incident and will find the person who created the rumor, giving Qingqing and Xu Chi a clean slate."
Xu Chi breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the newly posted Weibo by Lu Qing.
It would be best if they could just stop here. There are many stars in the entertainment industry who have been embroiled in scandals, and even after one side clears the air, the other side still relentlessly pursues them. Xu Chi is afraid of encountering such a situation herself. Originally, she didn't have much time to spend with Gu Jingxuan on the set, and now this troublesome matter has arisen. She wonders how many points Gu would deduct from her in his heart.
"Lulu and her friends were quite prudent. After Gu Yinged published a clarification on Weibo, otherwise those haters would have bashed them to death. If that happened, Lulu's acting career would have come to an end."
On the surface, Lin Tao appeared to be relieved that Xu Chi had escaped from the scandal. In reality, he secretly hoped that Lu Qing would be hidden away.
On the set, when they saw Xu Chi and Gu Jingxuan getting closer, they would try to provoke Xu Chi, even acting in a haughty manner.
This will create rumors between oneself and Xu Chi, but who is actually being admired in one's heart is still uncertain.
"Xu Chi, the first scene of the twenty-eighth mirror is about to start shooting. Come over here!" Jiang, the director, shouted from the other side. Xu Chi took off his jacket and placed it by the fireplace.
"Ling Ge, could you please watch over my clothes for me?"
After taking off his coat, Xu Chi shivered from the cold. The temperature in the movie theater was frighteningly low these past few days, making it unbearable to go outside without fully gearing up.
Lin Tao held a hand warmer in his hands and huddled up against the fireplace, trying to keep himself warm.
Upon hearing Xu Chi's words, Fu Du nodded with a very low amplitude. "You better hurry and go, and quickly come back after finishing. Don't freeze."
Little did Xu Chi know that not long after he left, Lu Qing came over with her agent.
"Excuse us, please make way, we want to start a fire," Qingqing said.
The production team's barbecue pit is the best and can provide the highest temperature. Lu Qing brought her manager here with the clear intention of competing for this barbecue pit with them.
"There's a seat next to me. You can sit there," Lin Tao said reluctantly. He really didn't want to move, as leaving the fireplace even for a moment in this godforsaken weather would make him shiver uncontrollably from the cold.
"Hey, what's wrong with you? Are Quingqing and you suitable to sit together?" The manager of Luqing had a sarcastic and mean look, unwilling to let it slide without reason.
Lin Tao buried half of his face in the scarf, raised his eyes to look at the pair of master and servant in front of him, and thought to himself, "Truly, people are often accompanied by dogs that reflect their personalities."
Is this stove still not yours? Can't I sit on it?
The things on the set have always been shared by everyone. First come, first served, and the latecomers just have to squeeze in. Lin Tao and Xu Chi were originally the first ones to sit here, and it's unreasonable for Lu Qing to come and ask them all to leave.
"We, Qingqing, are the female lead. What right does a male second lead like you have to stand in front of us so arrogantly? Do you think just because you have the role of a male second lead assigned by Director Jiang, you're all high and mighty?"
Lu Qing had never been scolded severely by Jiang Dao before. At this moment, she arrogantly believed that her acting skills had left Jiang Dao speechless. With a proud expression on her face towards everyone she met, Lin Tao had long been unable to tolerate it. Just as he was about to unleash a barrage of curses, he felt a weight pressing down on his shoulder.
"What? Are they going to sit here?" Gu Jingxuan originally wanted to chat with Xu Chi, lighten the mood, but as soon as he arrived, he saw this scene and instinctively spoke up.
"Go to my lounge, it's much warmer there than here. Let Xu Chi finish filming and come over. The little child is under my care."
After saying this, he didn't even look at Lu Qing before he left.
Lin Tao looked at Lu Qing's ever-changing face, his heart filled with joy, but his mouth couldn't resist teasing her.
"As the esteemed female lead, please have a seat here. Male supporting characters like Xu Chi from our family can only bother the leading actor, Gu Yingdi."
Lu Qing was choked by Lin Tao and couldn't say a word. She glared at him angrily and plopped down next to the stove, feeling extremely annoyed.
If she had just shown signs of not having a place to sit, could the person who went to the leading actor's rest area be her?
