Chapter 298 - 298 Sleep with Me
298 Sleep with Me
After Han Junlei said “cut”, the crew members fell silent for a long time.
Everyone was still immersed in Su Ji’s amazing performance.
They wanted to applaud her, but their hearts were filled with sorrow. The feeling of being completely led away by her was a better affirmation.
At this moment, everyone’s attention was focused on Su Ji, who was leaning back in her chair with her beautiful legs crossed. There were still tears on her face, but her lips were curled into a smile.
Even that smug expression was filled with emotions.
Han Junlei only had this in his mind, “a natural actress”.
By the time Si Jingchuan came back to his senses, he realized that everyone present was too engrossed and no one had brought his boss a tissue.
He quickly brought it over and wiped the tears from Su Ji’s eyes.
Xu Ni walked a few steps behind him with his hands in his pockets and a dazed expression.
Even the crew members looked at Su JI in a different light after her performance, let alone the audience.
They felt that this lady wasn’t as carefree as she looked, and she had a lot hidden in her heart.
When they moved, the other people at the scene also came back to their senses.
There was an endless stream of praises and congratulations.
“Not bad, Su Ji. I thought you wouldn’t be able to act in a scene like this.”
“She was so much in character just now that I almost cried.”
“Is it because you used Chairman Su’s photo?”
“Regardless of the reason, that part is really awesome!”
Zhou Xuefang stood behind them. She felt an unprecedented sense of danger.
Su Ji’s crying scene was the highlight of today’s shooting. After she was done with this, the rest of the shooting would be done soon.
Following that, it was Wednesday, the last day of filming before the new year. Si Jingchuan, Zhou Xuefang, and Su Ji, the three main actors, were given the last ten minutes of the plot of the twelfth episode.
The three characters were not in the same scene.
Bai Yueguang was attending her father’s funeral. At the funeral, she also gave her stepmother and stepsister one last slap in the face. Finally, under the dumbfounded expressions of her stepmother and stepsister, she placed the bouquet of flowers she had prepared for her father in front of his tombstone and turned to leave.
She looked down and found Gu Shen’s number in her phone’s contact list. She dialed it.
As for Shen Qianqian, she was soaking in the bathtub, she thought about her family, career, her university life after she had just graduated, and the man she met. Her mind was a mess.
In the midst of her confusion, she picked up her phone and called Gu Shen.
The last scene involved the male lead.
In the meeting room, Gu Shen finally ended the meeting. He took the phone from his assistant and immediately noticed the missed calls from the two girls.
There were also two messages sent by them.
The most confusing thing was that both messages asked him to meet up that night.
One was in the north of the city, while the other was in the south, at the same time.
The assistant smiled awkwardly. He knew that his boss was too charming.
Gu Shen read the messages. Episode 12 would end with Gu Shen’s extremely conflicted eyes.
Who would he go to?
The suspense would accompany the fans through the new year.
The three of them finished filming their scenes in the afternoon.
It was the feeling that Han Junlei wanted.
When the last day of filming ended, he gathered all the crew members together and gave each of them a box of fruits, a carton of milk, and frozen meat. He bought this out of his own pocket and asked the crew members to go home for the new year.
While the crew was busy distributing the gifts, Zhou Xuefang kept her eyes on Han Junlei.
Sure enough, her uncle had gathered Huang Huayu and a few other scriptwriters for a meeting at Blue Whale this Saturday.
He was being very mysterious and had a meeting behind the actors’ backs.
Zhou Xuefang’s heart sank.
Su Ji, Si Jingchuan, and Xu Ni didn’t take the gifts. They distributed their share to the rest of the crew.
Si Jingchuan raised his eyebrows, “boss, the team is on holiday, but I’m not.”
Xu Ni glanced at them, “don’t ask me out. You can’t keep up.”
“Stop pretending,” Si Jingchuan didn’t give him any face at all. However, it was going to be the new year soon, so he said, “don’t go to places like bars. There are a lot of bad people there.”
Xu Ni was rebellious. He packed his bag and said “don’t worry about me” before leaving.
Si Jingchuan couldn’t control him. He turned around and said to Su Ji, “boss, don’t be led astray by him.”
Su Ji smiled and looked at him, “you are quite naggy. No wonder he’s annoyed.”
Si Jingchuan smiled evilly, “I don’t care if I annoy him.”
Su Ji tapped her fingers on the table twice, “by the way, you can’t stop taking the medicine even though you’re on holiday. Remember to come to my house to get the medicine for you and your brother.”
“Alright! No problem!” Si Jingchuan was elated. He would have the chance to visit his boss’ house.

Once the holidays started, Su Ji could finally sleep in.
On Thursday, she slept until the evening, and on Friday, she slept until the afternoon.
It was as if she was in hibernation.
Aunt Wu was so scared that she opened the door every few hours to ask if she was thirsty or hungry.
Xu Mingzhi wanted to take her daughter out to buy New Year’s goods since she finally had a holiday, but every time she came home, she was sleeping.
Pei Huai couldn’t contact her either. She wouldn’t reply to his WeChat messages before dark.
After dark, she would also be lazy and only replied occasionally.
She couldn’t continue sleeping like this. Her brain would be damaged from too much sleep. However, Xu Mingzhi couldn’t bear to discipline her. On the third day, Pei Huai went straight to the Xu family.
Aunt Wu opened the door, “Mr. Pei?”
Pei Huai nodded and went upstairs. “She’s still sleeping?”
Aunt Wu said, “yes, I just went in and asked. She said she’s not thirsty or hungry. She just wants to sleep.”
Pei Huai stopped when he reached the stairs, “is Ms. Xu here?”
Aunt Wu replied, “madam isn’t here. She said that she’ll come back tonight to watch the drama.”
After Pei Huai heard this, he went upstairs.
Aunt Wu felt strange as she followed behind. How did he know where her room was?
She was just about to tell him.
When Pei Huai entered the room, Su Ji was still lazily sleeping under the blanket.
She was wearing a two-piece set pajamas and was lying flat on the bed, but the blanket was all over her face.
It looked suffocating.
Pei Huai frowned and walked to the side of the bed. He helped her remove the blanket and called her softly.
Su Ji moved a little, buried her face in the pillow, and continued to sleep.
Pei Huai turned her around to face him. Seeing that her face had slimmed down from sleeping so much, he frowned. “Wake up, Su Ji. Your boyfriend is here.”
Only then did Su Ji manage to open one eye.
She looked at Pei Huai for two seconds. On the third second, she wrapped her slender arms around his neck, “sleep with me.”
Not only did she want to sleep, she even wanted to drag Pei Huai into bed!
Aunt Wu’s face turned yellow and she quietly left the room…
