Chapter 67: Getting to Know You

Hence, during the entire commercial shoot, Chu Jinyu’s gaze kept landing on a certain person from time to time. This made some sensitive people realize that something was going on. However, as she was their boss and superior, they did not dare to think too deeply.

Lu Ming, who had his hands crossed in front of his chest, felt uncomfortable. “Why is she looking at me? Is there anything strange on my face?” he wondered.

He instinctively touched his face. “Good. There’s nothing.”

He thought if it wasn’t him, then there was something wrong with Chu Jinyu.

“What did Emma Stone tell her?” he wondered. He thought there was something seriously wrong with that intense gaze.

Obviously, he had not taken Chu Jinyu’s confession seriously. Otherwise, he would have guessed the reason.

Not far away, Shu Shengzi was lost in her own thoughts for a long time. She looked at the harmonious atmosphere in the studio, which was very jarring to her. The female lead should have been her. She should have been the one at the center, being supported by the A-list celebrity!

If she had not been arrogant earlier, would she have had the chance to get to know Emma Stone?

With an A-list superstar in a supporting role, this commercial would absolutely go viral! At that time, her net worth would definitely increase several fold! But all of this was ruined by her own willfulness and greed for so-called wealth!

She wished she could start over and slapped herself hard!

“500 thousand yuan? Bullsh*t!”

Now that the plan had failed, she would be lucky if Young Master Lu did not blame her. There was not a chance that he would marry her. She did not shoot the commercial, and they might have offended that mysterious big shot.

She began to tremble at the thought.

Would such a powerful person really let her off?

Even if he could, he would not let her have it easy! Her career, which was just starting to take off, was gone again. This time, no one could save her.

“I… Why did I have to gamble on my future and go against Jingchen Company?”

Yuelian, who was running around with the new clothes, almost tripped over Shu Shengzi when she was not paying attention. She said impatiently, “Why are you still here?! We don’t need you anymore. As for the compensation, please transfer the money to us within a week!”

The compensation!

Shu Shengzi thought of the amount stated in the contract. She had thought that if she became the wife of a wealthy man, she would definitely be able to fork out the money immediately. But now, she simply could not afford that huge sum!

She was afraid that she would have to empty her pockets!

At the thought of this, her eyes rolled up and she was about to faint. However, Yuelian quickly held her up. Immediately after, a pungent smell rushed to her nose. “What? Are you trying to avoid paying compensation? Luckily, I brought essential balm, which can refresh your mind!”

Shu Shengzi could not faint even if she wanted to.

She stood up unsteadily. Without raising her head, she could sense the malicious intent of the staff. Then, like a rat on the streets, she scuttled away.

“Tch, I was wondering how amazing she was. I didn’t expect her mental fortitude to be so poor.”

Yuelian rolled her eyes and put the essential balm back into her pocket. After all, ordinary people could not stand the smell. But this was her overtime tool. As long as she took a whiff of it, she would be energized immediately.

With the guidance of an experienced actor like Emma Stone, the filming went very smoothly. Even the other supporting actors learned a lot. After the shooting was completed, she signed a few autographs for the crew and cast. Only then did the filming come to an end.

Chu Jinyu’s relationship with Emma Stone had also developed on the set and they quickly became good friends. “Thank you for coming this time. Otherwise, I would have lost more than a million yuan. Moreover, acting occasionally is not a bad experience.”

“What are you talking about? I’m also very happy to be able to collaborate with a great beauty like you. This trip to China is not in vain.”

Emma Stone chuckled.

The two of them chatted for a while before Chu Jinyu pulled Lu Ming over from the corner. “He is my childhood friend and is also the person in charge here.”

“Hello, my name is Lu Ming.”

Lu Ming reached out his hand and said.

When Emma Stone heard his voice, she was stunned for a few seconds. She instinctively grabbed his hand and then quickly retracted it. “You really sound like someone I know.”

It was no different from the man’s voice on the phone, but she did not think that the dignified Star Creation boss would be willing to be placed under others. It was probably a coincidence.

Just as Lu Ming thought that he was going to be exposed, she continued, “However, there are many people in this world who have similar voices. How could you be him?”

Lu Ming heaved a sigh of relief. The other party did not guess the correct answer.

Chu Jinyu did not think too much about it and said, “It’s meal time now. You should be very hungry, right? This time, it’s my treat. I’ll let you sample fine Chinese cuisine.”

“That’s great! The last time I came to China was a few years ago. The delicious food here has been on my mind for a long time!”

Emma Stone’s eyes lit up. She was already famished and didn’t have much strength left. However, it would be embarrassing to mention it. She didn’t expect Chu Jinyu to say it first.

Seeing this, Lu Ming could not help but smile. He said, “Let’s go to the Hilton Hotel. I’ll lead the way.”

He walked in front while Emma Stone held Chu Jinyu’s arm and said softly with a smile, “He’s quite good-looking. Your taste is also…”

She gave a thumbs up.

A light blush involuntarily crept onto Chu Jinyu’s face.

While shooting the commercial, Emma Stone observed that Chu Jinyu’s attention was on Lu Ming. She immediately guessed that she liked him. Immediately after, Emma Stone suggested that she have a mental image of Lu Ming during the filming. As expected, the result of the filming turned out very well.

Typically, Chu Jinyu did not have much of an expression. Perhaps it was a habit, but since she liked Lu Ming, she would smile at the thought of him. This was also her habit. Emma Stone took advantage of this.

Unfortunately, Lu Ming did not realize it at all.

Emma Stone’s heart could not help but beat faster when she saw Chu Jinyu acting like a little girl. Even though she was used to seeing beautiful women, she could not help but sigh at this moment. “How beautiful!” she thought.

“He must like you too, right?”

Chu Jinyu shook her head and said, “His love for me is like the relationship between family members.”

She was very aware that no matter how well Lu Ming treated her, that was only because he was protective of his younger sister. She was very greedy—being his younger sister was not enough.

Emma Stone consoled her, “You’re so beautiful and capable. He’ll definitely fall in love with you. I remember there’s a Chinese saying—Feelings grow with each passing day.”

“Thank you for your blessings.”

Chu Jinyu smiled and said.
