Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

“What a coincidence! I’m free on Friday morning too.”

He only had a technical demonstration class that morning, but he would try to escape it.

“I’m going to get us food.” Mo Liuxi nodded.

“That’s not okay.” Yan Su felt a little guilty about it. “We’ve agreed that I’ll buy the food.”

“You can give me the money afterward,” said Mo Liuxi.

Yan Su didn’t know how to respond.

She was a little touched. It turned out that she was wrong.

Noticing the change of her expression, Mo Liuxi thought for a moment and said, “You don’t have to give me the money. It won’t be a lot anyway.”

“No. That won’t be all right. Didn’t you say that except for your family and girlfriend, you won’t spend money on anyone else? I understand.” Yan Su said.

You said that just now. How can I not give you the money? she thought.

Mo Liuxi frowned. She was right, but…

At that time, Li Ming called him.

“Just get the call. I’m leaving.” Yan Su gave him a hand gesture to let him know that she was taking off.

Mo Liuxi nodded, then answered the call. “If you’re gonna talk to me about Shi Xiang, forget it. I won’t change my attitude.”

Yan Su who had just walked to the door, froze. She felt as if someone suddenly gripped her heart.

She had broken up with him but could not forget him. Her heart ached every time she heard his name.

She turned and watched Mo Liuxi talk on the phone.

Li Ming said on the other side of the phone, “Don’t overthink. He will spend ten days with the crew at most. He has a strong background, and we were given no other choice. Don’t let everyone know that you have issues with him. His fans are crazy and you’re not famous yet in China. Don’t bring trouble to yourself.”

“Anyway, I won’t direct his part. He is so lame. I would just scold him.” Mo Liuxi finished talking, then ended the call. Afterward, he turned and found that Yan Su was still near the door, looking at him, as if she wanted to say something.

“Aren’t you leaving?” Mo Liuxi thought she had left.

“I… I just heard you mention Shi Xiang’s name.” Yan Su was guessing but didn’t want to believe it. “He isn’t taking part in the new film, is he?”

“Um.” Mo Liuxi responded.

Yan Su paused for a few seconds, then said, “I didn’t hear about it before. I didn’t see him during the audition either.”

If she knew that he would be there, she would give up on the opportunity. She didn’t want to see him during work. She could not face him with composure. Even looking at him would be like tearing open old wounds in her heart.

Mo Liuxi snorted and said, “I wouldn’t have agreed to work on this film if I knew that I’d have to work with him. Pan Qingfeng was supposed to be the supporting actor. For some reason, the investor replaced Pan Qingfeng with him. He is just a singer. I wonder about his background. Judging by what the producer said, I think the producer can’t afford to offend him.”

Yan Su felt bitter.

What she heard from the TV station seemed to be true. She knew all about Shi Xiang’s family background. His parents were ordinary workers, and his entire family lived together in an old flat.

How could he possibly become so powerful, if he was not with a rich and powerful girl?

“What’s wrong?” The sensitive Mo Liuxi frowned, as he noticed that Yan Su suddenly became absent-minded. “Do you know Shi Xiang?” he asked.

“No.” Yan Su hurriedly shook her head. “I just think he’s pretty famous. After all, we’re both singers.

“Can someone like that really be called a singer?” Mo Liuxi snorted coldly. “A singer needs to be like you, at least.”
