Chapter 646: Chapter 646

After half an hour, the filming continued.

Stella and others also stayed on the filming site for the whole afternoon. They planned to wait for them to knock off and have dinner together to celebrate Channing’s first shoot.

The filming didn’t finish until midnight.

Elaine fell asleep while leaning against Stella’s shoulder.

Sherry also continuously yawned, waiting impatiently while staring at the screen.

When it was one o’clock in the morning, the filming finally finished.

Flora came out first. It was evident that she had already run out of her patience.

The director said, “Thank you all for your hard work. We’ve called some take-outs. Please have some before leaving.”

Flora didn’t answer. Instead, she looked at her assistant and said, “Why are you standing there? We won’t eat. Hurry up and go.”

Her assistant immediately took her belongings and helped her to put on the coat.

Flora pulled her coat and left arrogantly on her high heels.

The director ignored her. Looking over at Winnie, he asked, “Ms. Truman, would you like to have some food?”

Winnie said with a smile, “No, but thank you very much. My friends have been waiting for Channing and me all the time. Maybe next time.”

“Okay. I won’t be holding you any longer then. See you next time.”

Winnie nodded at him and said to Channing, “Tell Stella I’ll go after removing my makeup and changing my clothes. Please wait for me outside.”

Channing said, “All right.”

Winnie then left. When Channing prepared to leave, the director pulled him and asked, “Chan, is that lady named Stella your older sister?”

“Yes, she is.”

“She’s quite good-looking. Why doesn’t she work in the entertainment business?”

Channing smiled, “She wouldn’t consider about it.”

The director said while feeling sorry, “That’s a pity. Could you please ask your sister?”

“Not necessary. She needs to take care of her baby. She’s a designer. I don’t think she has any spare time yet.”

The director was quite shocked, “Has she got married already?”

Channing was silent for a moment. Then he answered, “Yes, she has.”

“I see. All right.”

Channing said, “Director, I’m taking off then. Bye.”

The director patted him on the shoulder and said, “You performed pretty well today. I hope we will have chances to work together in the future.”

Channing slightly nodded.

He walked to Stella and said, “Okay. We can leave now.”

When Elaine heard his voice, her head slid from Stella’s shoulder. She asked sleepily, “What? Time to eat?”

Stella laughed and patted her head. Removing things from her lap, she stood up and said, “Let’s go for the midnight snacks.”

Earlier in the evening, the program team had offered them supper, so they were not hungry.

Sherry also stood up and walked a bit. She asked, “Where is Winnie?”

Stella said, “Let’s wait for her outside and get some fresh air.”

Elaine yawned while rubbing her eyes.

Out of the filming set, they were overwhelmed by the heat.

It was already summer. Even the breeze at night would make people feel humid and hot.

Standing outside, Stella said, “Channing, I’ll take them to the restaurant first. You can take Winnie’s car.”

Channing slightly hummed.

After twenty minutes, Winnie finished changed and came out. She asked, “Where are Stella and others?”

“They went to the restaurant first, asking me to wait for you.”

Winnie said, “Let me call a taxi then.”

“Where are your driver and assistant?” asked Channing.

“Something happened to Bella’s family. I asked the driver to send her back home earlier.”

As Winnie answered, she pulled out her cell phone.

Channing was silent for a moment. Suddenly, he said, “The restaurant isn’t far away from here. Let’s walk there.”

Winnie paused and answered after a few seconds, “Okay.”

There was nearly no pedestrian on the street at this moment, so she took off her mask and put it in her purse.

She asked, “Is the entertainment business the same as you’ve imagined?”

Channing answered, “It’s just a job, the same as others. Not much difference.”

Winnie bent down her head and walked. After a thought, she said, “I actually want to ask you a question for a long time.”

“Ehn?”

“Why would you agree to work in the entertainment business? I don’t think your character fits in such a job.” Winnie continued, “Please don’t misunderstand. I didn’t mean anything else. I just think you are only a college freshman and a straight-A student. You were the first place of the province in the university entrance exam. You have a bright future. After graduation, you can choose a job you like. Why do you now...”

Channing answered indifferently, “Because I don’t want to be a burden all the time.”

Winnie didn’t quite understand, “A burden?” she asked in confusion.

“Since childhood, Stella always protects me. She always considers my priority higher than hers. She has given a lot of things because of me.”

They kept walking. It was quiet around them. Occasionally, there was a car roaring away.

Channing continued calmly in a flat tone, “I can’t do anything right now. This is the fastest way.”

Winnie gradually understood what he meant.

However, she agreed with Channing. As long as a person had fame and wealth, he could have the right to speak.

She wasn’t surprised at Channing’s decision then.

Winnie said, “If Stella knew your thoughts, she wouldn’t have agreed with you. She has always thought that you work in the entertainment business because you like the job.”

“Please don’t let her know.”

“No worries. I won’t...”

Channing added, “Also, please don’t tell her what you’ve seen this afternoon.”

Winnie instantly understood what he referred to.

She asked, “Since when did you start smoking?”

“Quite a long time ago. I can’t remember.”

Winnie nodded, “Okay. I won’t tell her. No matter what, you are willing to tell me all those things. I believe you also treat me as an elder sister. I won’t rat you out.”

Channing was speechless.

He paused his pace.

Winnie looked back at him, “What’s wrong?”

Channing looked at her and asked, “Do you indeed want to be my elder sister?”

Winnie probably didn’t expect that he would ask so. After being taken aback for a moment, she laughed out, “Stella is my friend. I’ve always been treating you as my younger brother. If you’re not happy about it, I won’t speak that way next time.”

“I’m not unhappy.” Channing continued, stressing each syllable, “I’ve never treated you as my elder sister.”

For some reason, upon hearing his words, Winnie felt an emptiness in her heart. She didn’t know what to respond. Lowering her head, she stared at her shadow on the road and subconsciously nodded, “Okay.”

Winnie raised her brows, feeling that his last line was quite weird.

She kept wondering that the emptiness in her heart had just now faded away.

Winnie coughed and changed the subject, “Well, we must move fast. Stella must be waiting for us for a long time.”

After that, she strode forward as if she was about to run.

Channing gazed at her figure and slowly followed her.
