In fact, Lin Xiaowan had only sent that photo casually. However, she soon discovered that Huo Zheng was serious about looking for her in the photo. When she received his reply, half a day had already passed. She wondered how long he took to find her.

Lin Xiaowan praised him seriously before telling him to work hard and not slack off.

[Huo Zheng: It’s time for me to get off work. What time will you be back?]

It was especially busy on set, and it was normal to film night scenes. She was now in a filming studio on the outskirts of Shengjing, and it was a long journey back home. She had followed Gu Yuwu here today and forgot to ask about the schedule today.

Gu Yuwu spent most of her time with the director. Lin Xiaowan could not understand the professional jargon they used and grew bored after a while. In the end, she stayed with the other staff members.

[Lin Xiaowan: I came with Gu Yuwu today. I don’t know when we’re leaving. I’ll ask later.]

[Huo Zheng: Get the driver to pick you up.]

Lin Xiaowan felt reluctant since the location was quite a distance away. After a while, she jogged over to Gu Yuwu.

When Gu Yuwu saw Lin Xiaowan, she felt a little helpless. She smoothed Lin Xiaowan’s messy hair and asked teasingly, “Oh, you still remember to look for me?”

In the beginning, Lin Xiaowan had stayed close to Gu Yuwu. However, after filming started, she did not know where Lin Xiaowan went. She thought that Lin Xiaowan had lost her way, and after asking around for a long time, she found out that Lin Xiaowan was wandering around and having fun.

Gu Yuwu said, “In the future, when you’re leaving, you have to tell the people around you in advance, do you understand?”

“Okay,” Lin Xiaowan replied with a nod before she asked, “Are you going back later or will you be staying here?”

The production team had booked three floors of a nearby hotel for the actors and production team.

Gu Yuwu thought that Lin Xiaowan wanted to leave. She looked at the time and thought that Lin Xiaowan was not needed later so she said, “You want to leave? I’ll bring you back later.”

Lin Xiaowan hurriedly said, “There’s no need for that. If you’re busy with work, I can ask the driver to pick me up.”

Gu Yuwu chuckled. ‘Tin not too busy. We’ll be filming in the studio for a period of time. The actors have already planned how much they’ll shoot in a day. The earlier we finish filming, the earlier well be done.”

Today was the first day of filming, and the few scenes they were shooting today involved actors who were remarkably skilled.

In the end, Lin Xiaowan told Huo Zheng that there was no need to send the driver.

Gu Yuwu was in a good mood today. Most of the actors were old friends whom she had worked with before, and they were all very skilled. With very simple adjustments and little communication, they could easily film a scene without many takes.

When they were leaving, Lin Xiaowan asked, “How long will we be filming in the studio?”

Gu Yuwu opened the car door and urged Lin Xiaowan to get in before she replied, “For a while. We’re shooting part of the interior scenes in the studio. Did you see the green screen earlier? It’s for the convenience of post-production. At the end of March or the beginning of April, we’ll move to Yingshui in Nan’an Province to shoot outside.”

Gu Yuwu continued to say, “The scenes of the goddess will be shot in the studio. However, it’s fine if you want to go to Yingshui to have a look. I’ve been there before for an inspection, and the scenery is very good.”

“Okay.”

“How did you feel on set today?” Gu Yuwu asked.

“Very good! The staff members even praised me for being beautiful! They said that if I start acting, I’ll be a big star,” Lin Xiaowan said, happy that she was praised, “I was very impressed as well when I watched the actors. There was so much equipment and people around, but they weren’t affected at all. Their movements and speech weren’t stiff. They were really amazing!”

Lin Xiaowan had been seriously observing and learning. Although it was only a day, she learned that being afraid of this and that would not produce any results at all.

Gu Yuwu smiled. “The people today are professionals. You haven’t seen a lot so you don’t know that people like them are rare. There are also people who have so many bad takes that filming could go on for a long time. In any case, if you’re interested, you can come more often to watch.”

It would be Valentine’s Day soon. Seeing that Lin Xiaowan had been going to the set every day, Huo Zheng asked her one night, “Will you be going to the set tomorrow as well?”

Lin Xiaowan was applying skincare and did not think much of his question. She replied, “Yes. It’s quite fun to watch the filming. Perhaps I’ve been going so often, I’m no longer as nervous when surrounded by a lot of people.”

Seeing that she already had plans, Huo Zheng hesitated for a moment. In the end, he did not say anything.

The next morning, Lin Xiaowan found a large bouquet of champagne roses and a large bottle of perfume on her dressing table. The perfume was a Valentine’s Day limited edition perfume.

Only when she saw these things did realization dawn on Lin Xiaowan. She checked the calendar and confirmed that it was Valentine’s Day.

Initially, she planned to do something with Huo Zheng on Valentine’s Day. However, after the Lantern Festival and filming started, she completely forgot about this.

‘No wonder Huo Zheng was asking about my plan yesterday…’

Lin Xiaowan felt a little embarrassed. She had forgotten, but he had remembered. He clearly wanted to spend time with her, but he did not say anything. Since he had left for the office, she quickly called him.

The call connected swiftly, and they were both silent for a moment.

In the end, Huo Zheng called out, sounding puzzled, “Qingqing?”

“What day is it today?” Lin Xiaowan asked despite already knowing the answer.

Huo Zheng paused for a moment. “Valentine’s Day?”

“Since you knew, why didn’t you say anything last night? I forgot, but you could’ve reminded me,” Lin Xiaowan said.

“You have plans, after all. I don’t want to mess up your plan.”

Lin Xiaowan rolled her eyes. “What are you saying? I’m going to get angry.”

Huo Zheng remained silent, not sure what he had said wrong. After thinking about it for a moment, he apologized. He had forgotten where he had read it, but it was said that if one’s girlfriend was angry, one should apologize first.

“Please, I didn’t call to hear your apology, Brother,” Lin Xiaowan said, feeling slightly speechless. An idea suddenly appeared in her mind, and she pretended to say cutely, “Brother, why are you apologizing? Do you not want to spend Valentine’s with me? I understand. You don’t love me anymore. It’s okay. I’ll feel better after crying for three hours.”

“It’s not like that,” Huo Zheng said. Although there was no one in the office, he still lowered his voice as he continued to say in a hoarse voice, “Speak properly.”

Lin Xiaowan instantly returned to normal as she said teasingly, “Huh? You seemed to like it though.. Don’t tell me you like this?”
