Chapter 72 - Cultivate Feelings

She put the clothes at home and went to the crew in the afternoon.

The crew was taking promotional photos mainly for the male lead and female lead.

Li Beinian, as a supporting role and a newcomer, naturally could only wait.

So she waited for two or three hours.

Li Beinian sat on the side and scoured the script, not exactly bored.

Other supporting actors, some younger girls, were a little impatient. They muttered, “Why is it taking so long? If they’re not shooting us today, why are we even here?”

“Exactly. They’re just filming the leads. Is there a need for supporting actors like us to take promotional pictures, we don’t even have many scenes anyways...”

“Chi Beinian, aren’t you bored?”

At the mention of her name, Li Beinian shook her head and said, “No, I’m looking at the script. Time will soon pass.”

The girls looked at each other with awkward smiles.

In the end, the whole day passed, and it still wasn’t Li Bainian’s turn nor the other supporting actors’.

“What the hell? They just called us to be cannon fodder.”

“That’s too much. Beinian, don’t you agree?”

Li Beinian had already anticipated this situation.

This was the case in the crew and was very realistic.

After glancing at them, Li Beinian smiled and comforted them. “It’s fine if you get used to it. We could just come back tomorrow. It’ll be easier for us to take the pictures when we have seen how other people take it.”

The girls felt bored. They turned around and mumbled and looked at her with strange eyes.

This was how people were. It didn’t matter if what she said was right or wrong, as long as she didn’t side with them, she would naturally become the enemy.

Li Beinian didn’t mind. She packed up and went back.

Her day’s schedule was full, and Li Beinian returned to the Li family’s house at night.

She had specially told Li Haoran today that she wouldn’t be home for dinner.

So when she got home, the Li family had already had dinner.

Li Xueqing was drinking water in the kitchen when she heard movement.

She watched as Li Beinian went upstairs. Li Xueqing quickly found Fang Zhili.

Fang Zhili was cutting flowers in the flower room, and when she saw Li Xueqing rush in, she didn’t look up. “What’s the matter?”

“Mom, I think Li Beinian has been a bit wrong recently.”

Fang Zhili looked up. “What’s wrong?”

“She always said that she was studying, but I found out that she didn’t seem to have many books, and she was gone for the whole day as well. People can’t possibly study the whole day, right?” Li Xueqing thought about it and felt more convinced. “She leaves early in the morning and comes back late at night. I don’t believe that she’s studying!”

Fang Zhili looked at her daughter and laughed. “You finally realized. You’re indeed my daughter.”

Li Xueqing’s eyes widened. “Have you found out long ago?”

“Yes, I suspect she has a boyfriend outside.”

Fang Zhili’s words made Li Xueqing sigh in relief. She said, “How is that possible? It’s not like she has a problem with her brain. Why doesn’t she keep such an outstanding man like Mu Donglin? Why would she go outside and find those uneducated people!”

“It’s hard to say, Li Beinian might really have some problem with her head.” Fang Zhili cut her flowers. “She rejected Mu Donglin’s date yesterday, did you know?”

“No way!” Li Xueqing was even more surprised. “Why?”

“She said that she was studying hard and couldn’t pull away to date.” Fang Zhili sneered. “How could it be possible? Unless she has another man in her heart.”

“How is this possible...”

“We will know tomorrow.” Fang Zhili cut a rose and said, “Mu Donglin is really good, but there are better ones outside, after all.”

For example, Mu family’s other son.
