Chapter 150: Chapter 150: Fate is a Funny Thing (2)
She did not like Gu Manxi.
She was indescribably annoying.
Zhao Manshi was at the age of being unruly and willful. She could not accept the fact that her second sister, who was beautiful and lucky, had suddenly appeared out of thin air.
As she was crossing the road in her high heels, the sound of an urgent bell suddenly came from the roadside. Someone shouted angrily, “Get out of the way! The rickshaw is sliding down!! Don’t you fucking look at the road?!”
Zhao Manshi frowned. An out-of-control antique rickshaw was sliding down the slope at an astonishing speed. Zhao Manshi’s face immediately turned pale. She subconsciously wanted to dodge, but her high heels were not strong enough. She twisted her foot – the rickshaw was about to rush over.
Zhao Manshi was so scared that she quickly closed her eyes.
At the critical moment, a pair of warm and powerful hands wrapped around her waist and quickly pulled her to the side.
Time seemed to be slowed down infinitely. Zhao Manshi slowly opened her eyes and saw a handsome and cold man’s face.
This young man had his hair combed back like they did during the Republic of China. His eyes were cold, and the ends of his eyes were thin and long. His thin lips were pursed lightly, and his jawline was extremely beautiful. He was wearing the school uniform from the Republic of China’s middle school. He was refined and handsome, and he could not hide his scholarly scent. His demeanor was elegant, and he exuded an indifferent and noble aura!
Zhao Manshi was stunned.
She could hear her own heart beating violently.
She had lived in the capital for many years and had seen countless handsome men of different styles. However, this was the first time that her heart was truly moved, and her heart was in turmoil.
Even when she saw Song Chen, whom she wanted to marry, the emotions that lingered in Zhao Manshi’s heart were only shyness and excitement. However, her heart had never beaten this fast.
The rickshaw that had gone out of control crashed into a corner. A man ran over to retrieve it while cursing.
Zhao Manshi stared blankly at the handsome man in front of her. He was not as tall as Song Chen, and his figure was not as strong as Song Chen’s, but… His perfect appearance and figure, as well as that pair of cold and familiar eyes, made Zhao Manshi lose herself in them.
The man brought her to the side of the road and frowned. “Why are you here?”
Zhao Manshi was stunned. Her voice was also quite pleasant to hear. It was cold and clear, reminding her of the sound of rocks falling from the clear spring when they went to the hot spring resort at night.
Zhao Manshi blushed and lowered her head. “I… I’m here to look for someone. Ow–”
The pressure on the man’s body was a little low. When he saw Zhao Manshi’s sprained foot, he could not bear to see it.
The man looked for a staff member. “She sprained her foot. Please find an ice bag for her.”
The staff quickly said, “Alright, you can go ahead. Leave this to me.”
The man obviously did not want to have too much contact with Zhao Manshi. After saying a few words, he turned around and returned to the studio.
Zhao Manshi’s mind was muddled, and countless pink bubbles appeared in her heart.
After the man whom she had only met once left, only then did Zhao Manshi realize that she had forgotten to ask for his name!
“Hello, may I know the name of the person just now? Where does he live? Is he an actor here? Does he have a girlfriend?” Zhao Manshi was helped into the lounge by a staff member. She could not suppress the excitement in her heart.
The staff member scratched his head and said apologetically, “Uh… Director Lu has instructed me not to reveal too much information about the movie before it is released. I can only tell you that he is an actor in our movie and Director Lu thinks highly of him.”
Zhao Manshi rested her chin on her hands, and her eyes were filled with excitement. “So he’s a movie actor.”
The corners of her lips curled up into a bashful smile.
…
On the other side, a thin man wearing a traditional costume pushed open the door of the dressing room.
Lu Shanhe was checking the makeup of Jiang Cheng. When he saw the person, he immediately smiled and said,
“Manxi, you’re finally back. Hurry, there’s still one scene of you in the afternoon. Change your appearance first. The scenes in your male fit have already been shot.”
