Chapter 489 - Scheming

Chapter 489: Scheming

Sometimes, a person’s memory would not disappear with the passage of time. It would only become more and more profound. For example, she did not remember the handsome boys who had followed her every day in junior high and showered her with attention. She only remembered the boy who had dashed out in the dark and risked his life to protect her.
However, she had clearly changed. Even her former classmates could not have recognized her. How had he recognized her immediately?
Zhou Zhou muttered strangely. Had he gotten the wrong person? It was obviously Yu Cai. She had been the school belle of their junior high school, his goddess, and his first love. It had been just a crush. The girl had not even known.
At the time, he had been fat and tanned. He had been bullied every day and had been called a black wild boar. He had felt inferior and timid and had only dared to sneak a few glances at her and write her love letters. He had not had the courage to confess his love.
Perhaps she did not remember him at all. After all, he did not have much of a presence. Many people liked goddesses, so how could she remember him?
When Zhou Zhou entered the filming site, it was very lively. Everyone was eating lunch around the food truck. Upon seeing Ling Sheng talking to someone, he showed Xiao Ye the items he had bought. “Are these knee pads?”
Xiao Ye took them and checked. She did not know that knee pads looked like this. “Why did you buy black ones?”
Zhou Zhou smiled and scratched his head. “They are dirt resistant.”
Xiao Ye shot him a look. Girls liked brighter and prettier colors, especially fairies like Sister Sheng Sheng.
Zhou Zhou looked over. “Who’s that woman?”
Xiao Ye whispered, “The second female lead arrived just before noon due to her schedule. Her name is Zhen Li. In the past, she acted in artistic films and did not have a big audience. I don’t even know her. However, I heard that her acting skills are very good. She won a big international award, but the film was not released domestically.”
Zhou Zhou nodded. He was hungry, so he informed Little Ye as well and ran off to eat.
Ling Sheng actually wanted to have dinner with Fang Hua and Sheng Xichen. However, Zhen Li stopped her halfway and greeted her warmly. She wanted to eat with her, as though they were close.
The table was very small, as it was a two-person table. The two of them sat opposite each other. She was too embarrassed to request a change of tables, so she could only eat with her.
“Your fan is really impressive.” Zhen Li smiled at Ling Sheng. Her words were very direct, and her personality seemed carefree. “I’m so envious. If this gets uploaded online, many people will die of envy. Do you know how easy it is to attract hatred?”
Ling Sheng was a very sensitive person, especially since her sixth sense was very accurate. Although the woman in front of her seemed to have a carefree personality, she kept getting an indescribable sense of strangeness from her, as though she was talking to a mask. “Thank you for the warning, Sister Li.”
The woman in front of her was the second female lead, who filmed artistic films. Her acting chops should not be bad, or she would not have been chosen by Director Chen. She was quite old, as she was close to 30 years old. Perhaps she was low-key and did not like to hype herself up. There was basically no such person in the entertainment circle, though.
However, she was quite good-looking. Her looks would suit the Western sense of aesthetics very well. She exuded a charm and had the height and figure to complement it. She had the kind of high-end face that people talked about!
In the film, she would be portraying a female professor who had returned after studying abroad. She liked Feng Tu and felt that he was her soulmate. She would get close to Chao Lu first and become friends with her, but she’d be longing for her man all along. She was a scheming mistress.
