Caught in Affairs with Superstar-Chapter 305 - 267: Rising Stage: 103

What does it mean to "hit a snake at its vital point"?

It means to strike precisely at the weakness.

Zhou Lan had grasped Zhou Yun’s thoughts and what she would do, preemptively dispelling her concerns.

If Zhou Lan had not told Song Chi, Zhou Yun truly did not intend to discuss the matter with him. This kind of issue, no matter how it’s put, is troublesome and casts a shadow. Zhou Yun can harden her spirit to prevent it from affecting her daily life, but it gnaws at her heart, occasionally swinging at her.

Zhou Yun did not want Song Chi to worry along with her.

Especially about this kind of matter.

"Don’t comfort me, I’m fine already." That was the first thing Zhou Yun said to Song Chi when they met.

Song Chi took off his sunglasses and immediately gave Zhou Yun a hug.

"I know you’re fine; such small fry couldn’t scare you." Song Chi said this, but he still hugged Zhou Yun tightly.

"But luckily I came today. If I hadn’t come, were you not planning to tell me about it?" Song Chi asked.

Zhou Yun categorically denied, shaking her head, saying, "No, how could that be, I would definitely have told you."

"You better have." Song Chi took Zhou Yun’s hand, "Let’s go, get something to eat."

"Where to?" Zhou Yun looked surprised, "Isn’t it just eleven o’clock?"

"I have a flight at two-thirty in the afternoon to head back, so—" Song Chi glanced at the time and said, "we still have two hours."

Zhou Yun’s eyes widened in shock.

"Wait, you are flying back at two-thirty?"

"Yeah, I have to attend a brand endorsement dinner tonight." Song Chi said somewhat helplessly.

Zhou Yun: "Then why did you fly here? So hurried! I thought you had time off, so we could hang out here for a couple of days."

"Didn’t you call me last night at midnight saying you missed me?" Song Chi teased, squeezing his eyebrows together gleefully, "Didn’t I need to hurry over to relieve the pain of longing?"

Zhou Yun stared disbelievingly, firmly denying.

"Impossible! Don’t talk nonsense, I couldn’t possibly have told you I missed you." Zhou Yun was certain; this was simply not her style.

But Song Chi seemed to have anticipated Zhou Yun’s reaction all along and just smiled.

After he finished laughing, he said, "I wonder who told me last night that it’s such a pity about Sister Lan, saying we need to cherish our time together, to be together properly."

Zhou Yun: "Song Chi!"

Her eyes darkened.

It’s over, it’s all out, Song Chi even knows about Zhou Lan’s issue, so it seems she really did say those nonsense words?

Song Chi took Zhou Yun’s hand, saying, "Next time you miss me, just say it outright, I will definitely come over mountains and seas to see you."

"Who misses you!" Zhou Yun decided to stubbornly carry on to the end, "We just saw each other not long ago; how could I miss you so soon? Don’t take advantage of my memory lapse to put words in my mouth, I don’t remember saying such a thing, so no matter what you say I won’t believe it."

"Wow, Zhou Yun, I had never seen you be so unreasonable before." Song Chi laughed in awe.

Zhou Yun took a deep breath.

"Alright, be quiet, my head hurts, I need some rest."

She pretended to massage her temples.

Song Chi laughed even more joyfully.

Song Chi drove Zhou Yun to a restaurant.

They had been here before.

Zhou Yun realized as she saw the restaurant and said, "Last time we also came here!"

Song Chi nodded, saying, "Didn’t you say the food here was good last time? I booked the same place."

The restaurant was crowded, and they had to go through a side door.

The owner knew Song Chi and had specifically reserved a private room.

"What would you like to eat? I’ll cook myself," the owner said with a cheerful smile.

Zhou Yun said, "I’d like the Coconut Poisonous Insect from last time."

"No problem."

Song Chi ordered and returned the menu to the owner.

After the owner left, Song Chi turned back to Zhou Yun and asked, "When are you going to Venice?"

"The day after tomorrow. I’ll rest here for these two days; recently I’ve been really tired," Zhou Yun sighed and said: "Then in Venice, it’s going to be a tough battle. You have no idea how many activities Sister Lan has arranged for me."

Song Chi asked, "How long will you be in Venice?"

"At least two weeks. Sister Lan said, apart from our own movie events, I need to meet Shi Luoqi and Xue Qin. You remember their film ’Falling Leaves,’ right? They want to have a good discussion about the film with me," Zhou Yun said, "Besides that, there are interviews with over a dozen media outlets, some filming events, plus, He Yong will also be there. He wants to get to know the distributors in Europe to explore overseas market resources, and I have to accompany him too."

Song Chi: "Sounds indeed like a packed schedule, but it’s a great experience. Once you’re there, you can truly immerse in the atmosphere of their film festival. There are few other places in the world where you can feel such a pure cinema atmosphere, where people from all over the world gather together to cheer for good movies and exchange ideas. When you walk on the streets, in restaurants, you can hear everyone discussing films in various languages. The liked, the disliked, all sorts; having experienced such an atmosphere, you’ll feel a strong sense of pride, proud to be involved in such a beloved industry."

Zhou Yun nodded.

"Also, you can feel the respect of being an actor; basically no reporters will ask you gossip, all questions revolve around the character you portrayed, the movie you participated in filming. That feeling—" Song Chi’s eyes suddenly gleamed with laughter, "Me speaking so passionately like this, doesn’t it look kind of silly?"

Zhou Yun shook her head, seriously saying, "I think you look quite handsome when you talk seriously like this, really."

She stretched out her hand and touched Song Chi’s face.

Song Chi was surprised by Zhou Yun’s suddenly intimate gesture, his eyebrows twitching in astonishment.

"Why are you suddenly stroking my face... what are you trying to do?" Song Chi squinted slightly.

Zhou Yun: "I’ve actually wanted to touch it for a while, after all, this face is very handsome."

"Are you teasing me?" Song Chi asked.

Zhou Yun withdrew her hand, "You’re really annoying. I just wanted to innocently touch your face, and you suspect I’m teasing you."

Song Chi laughed.

"Just kidding, if you like touching it, feel free to do so."

Saying this, Song Chi also stretched his face forward, a look of ’feel free to pick’.

Zhou Yun, however, became shy at this moment and rudely retorted, "Go away, I’m going to drink water."

Sunlight streamed in from the outside, where large banana trees stood.

Light and shadow folded, intertwined.

Zhou Yun used the act of drinking water to cover her slightly blushing cheeks.
