Your Rival in Love Gets Prettier Every Day

Chapter 79: Pilot

A bigger blow was yet to come. On July 17, Yan Qiuchi's birthday, Shen Jintai called back in advance saying that the crew was too busy, and he could not come back.

Once an actor starts filming, it becomes a big deal. Accommodating one actor so they can leave for friends and families birthday means they have to accommodate others. This would completely stop the shooting progress.

Shen Jintai planned to wait until Yan Tiefeng's 50th birthday before he comes back. He called Mrs. Yan first, then Yan Qiuchi to inform them of his decision.

Mrs. Yan didn't know what kind of mood Yan Qiuchi was in. She only knew that Yan Qiuchi did not celebrate his birthday and went abroad on a business trip. She only asked him to eat a bowl of longevity noodles.

Yan Qiuchi only replied with a "Nn" before he resumed his work.

Mrs. Yan honestly felt that it was just dessert. In her mind when someone likes you, but you ignore them and get impatient, then they turn around and cut you off from their affection and you miss it... well all she can say is: "Bitch, you deserve it!"

At the same time, she could understand Yan Qiuchi's change. Shen Jintai had really changed a lot into a completely different person. Still, her son was somewhat selfish, and the outcome can only be heartbreak.

A man who is already 25 years old is the ripe age to fall in love. Her son was the slow-heating type that won't easily like someone. A "first love" that encountered such twists and turns, even for a tough man like him, will still be hurt to some extent. What if he continues to be hurt for another three to five years?

Recently, Yan Qiuchi had been working overtime every day, and became even more of a workaholic than before. Even Yan Tiefang asked him to give himself a break occasionally.

Mrs. Yan said: "You can take the time to give yourself a vacation. It just so happens that I am going to see Xiao Jin. You can accompany me."

Yan Qiuchi initially was going to refuse. He felt that what he should do now was to cool down. He feared meeting Shen Jintai would cause him to fall deeper and add more trouble to the both of them.

Mrs. Yan continued: "I heard that he seemed to be injured during filming two days ago."

Yan Qiuchi, who was about to refuse, when he heard this did a 360. Debates started going through his head. He knew it may not be a big injury, otherwise the news would have come out a long time ago. But it could still be a minor injury. He...

It was fine. It's not like his confession was rejected. Everything was the same as before so it shouldn't be a problem if he took a look. He let out a "Nn" and said: "I'll ask the assistant to coordinate the time."

Her son was after all still her son. Mrs. Yan used to "dislike" this son in every possible way, but now when she looks at him, she can't help but more and more distressed for him. She felt that she shouldn't be discouraged. She still had to match them up if there was still a chance. She just couldn't do it in such an obvious manner.

Shen Jintai hadn't appeared in public since he entered the crew, but his popularity had not diminished.

The second rounds of The East Palace broadcast were in progress. With so many beautiful men like clouds, there were many CPs that made it especially suitable for editing materials. The hottest CP was still Jintai Qiongying, while Jintai Meijing was quietly taking sugar. The hottest person was still, naturally Shen Jintai.

Among the costume clips, there was a song called "Tears of the Old One". The edited video was extremely popular, as it showed off Shen Jintai's beauty in all directions according to the lyrics. The video wasn't long. It was only half a minute. The lyrics "cherry lips, willow eyebrows" was accompanied by the classic shot of Li Xu raising his eyebrows. "Looking back and smiling, my heart is intoxicated" showed a slow-motion movement of Li Xu looking back during the Lantern Festival, with his fair face and rosy lips. A smile slowly appeared expressing a soft gentleness.
