Happy To Be Your Date

On the outskirts of the city. The crew was all busy setting up for the day.

Liying was preparing Li Zi's usual cucumber juice drink with lemon which she normally drinks before work. When she notices the girl walking like a zombie towards her, she was startled and dropped the plastic container and run towards her.

"Sis Li Zi, what happened to you? Why do you look so pale? Are you not feeling well, did something happen?"

Elizabeth smiled and patted the girl on the shoulder. "Liying, I'm fine... I just didn't get enough sleep last night. I was studying, trying to understand something."

"Oh, I see..." Liying sigh, relieved and resigned, as she picked up the plastic container and smiled. "I'll go prepare your drink."

As the girl was heading to the dressing room, a man surprises her from the back.

"Bwah!"

However, the girl did not react at all.

Huang Ming was surprised that the girl did not react and when he turned around and noticed her panda eyes, his heart started to ache and worried for her. "Li Zi, what happened?"

"Sen... Bro Ming, good morning." She gave him a refreshing smile. "I'm alright Bro Ming, I was just studying late last night I was unable to get some rest."

"Oh... I see..."

The same with Liying, he did not question her further as well. She was known to be a bookworm and enjoys indulging herself with knowledge which is why she gets along with the director so well since all they talk about all the time are about the books they've read.

"Anyway, I heard you agreed to do the <Wild Together>. I was so happy that you actually agreed to it, but at the same time worried that you might find it challenging since they normally do extreme challenges as the journey progressed. There are times we might need to sleep outside as well." Huang Ming explained but notice the girl was filled with excitement hearing all of it.

Hearing all of that, the girl was not worried one bit but was quite thrilled instead. She recalls the time she and her big brother went on a trip. One time, they lost their stuff and ended up sleeping outside.

"By the way Li Zi, are you free this coming 25th?"

"The 25th wait, let me see..." she got her phone out and check the calendar and face the man again. "I have nothing scheduled, why?"

"Well, it's quite embarrassing, but... It... It's my older sister's wedding, I, I was hoping... If, If maybe you'll accompany me." Huang Ming asked, averting his gaze from the girl.

Elizabeth smiled and gladly answered, "Sure, I would like to thank your sister, for always arranging such beautiful flowers for me."

"Really... Seriously... Are you sure?" Huang Ming, grab the girl by her shoulder filled with excitement.

"Of course, why not? I'll be happy to be your date."

Hearing the word "date" made Huang Ming so excited that he subconsciously hugged the girl.

"Sorry."

Elizabeth smiled as Huang Ming pushed himself away from the girl as he scratched his head embarrassingly.

Both of them then walked together smiling at each other.

...

Half a day passed by and they have made progress with the film, everyone took a quick break before shooting again.

Elizabeth quickly went to look for the director who was with the scriptwriter. "Director Ge, can I talk to you for a bit?"

"Oh, Li Zi... What seems to be the problem?" Director Ge asked as they step away from the staff.

"Nothing is wrong director, I just want to ask if it's alright for my friend's children to visit the set. They really want to know how movies are made." She explained.

"Of course, why not..."

"Thank you, Director, I'll go call them now..."

After she finished her conversation with the director. Since it was lunchtime, she got her phone out and called someone to report the good news.

"Hello, Chairman Yun am I bothering you right now."

The man was actually in the middle of a meeting when he answered the phone.

"No, you can speak."

"Chairman Yun, I actually got approval for Little Yan and Young Master Yang to visit. If you can possibly pass the message along to them."

"No worries, I can do that. By the way, how are you feeling?" Yun Shen asked, noticing the people in front of him all dumbfounded from hearing what he just said.

The girl was taken aback from hearing what Yun Shen just asked, his behavior is completely unexplainable. He acts cold and indifferent, but for some reason, he is concerned about her. Psychologically the man is just so unexplainable.

"I'm fine Chairman Yun, anyways, I need to go. We're about to start soon."

"Alright, take care."

As he hung up the phone, everyone in front of him was jaw drop. Did he just wish someone well? Did he actually just stop in the middle of a meeting again? Could it possibly be the same person? They were all looking at each other with the question of who is this mystery person all written in their faces.

"What are you all still staring at, continue with the meeting..." Yun Shen coldly said as he put the phone down.

As they proceed with the meeting, the man was smiling slightly thinking of the girl.

...

Meanwhile, back in the set. Elizabeth was left in a trance thinking of what just happened.

'Hmm, I wonder what Chairman Yun is thinking? Why is he acting so strange recently? I should ask one of my professors for help.'

Elizabeth moved forward and headed back to the set after hearing the assistant director calling for them.

Whilst she was listening to the assistant director's instruction, she overheard people talking about a certain person.

'Ah... He's coming, I almost forgot about him...'

"Li Zi, are you alright?" The assistant director asked noticing the girl's mind was wandering off somewhere else.

"I'm fine director, I'm sorry..." She smiled.

"No worries, I'll explain everything again just to make sure everyone understands it clearly," he replied.
