MO Shu smiled as he playfully tousled Xia Xin’s hair. Xia Xin winced uncomfortably, shaking her head a little.
Realizing he’d overstepped his bounds, MO Shu quickly pulled his hand back and said, “Thank you for helping me so many times,” he said sincerely.
Avoiding eye contact with the pool, Xia Xin waved her hand dismissively and said, “It’s no big deal. Oh, and please don’t tell anyone I’m afraid of water.”
“Why are you so scared of water?” MO Shu asked, looking at Xia Xin’s damp hair.
Memories of a frightening childhood incident flashed through Xia Xin’s mind. She frowned, not wanting to dwell on it, and said, “Maybe because I fell into the water when I was young? Once bitten, twice shy.”
MO Shu had a sudden realization. He asked, “Don’t you know that there’s a scene tomorrow where you have to go in the water? Why didn’t you object when it was announced?”
Startled, Xia Xin looked up, her eyes momentarily dazzled by the fluorescent lights on the ceiling. She exclaimed, “That wasn’t in the script! How did you know?”
A droplet of water trailed from Xia Xin’s eyelashes, down her cheek. MO Shu was momentarily entranced but quickly snapped back to reality. He said, “It wasn’t in the original script. The director decided to add it this morning and announced it to everyone. You must have missed it because you weren’t paying attention. I thought you were okay with it since you didn’t say anything.”
Feeling slightly suffocated, Xia Xin realized she needed to be more attentive. She said, “How could I be okay with it? I was too focused on figuring out how to perform my scenes today.”
Once Xia Xin’s breathing steadied, MO Shu spoke, “Your clothes are soaked.
Let’s go to the mall to get you something dry to wear.”
“Wouldn’t that delay your audition?” Xia Xin asked cautiously.
MO Shu glanced at his watch and said, “The audition is at 3 PM, and we still have an hour. Let’s go, or you’ll catch a cold.”
MO Shu draped a clean towel over Xia Xin and led her out of the swimming hall through a private exit.
Since Xia Xin was completely drenched, it was impractical for her to go into the mall herself. MO Shu donned sunglasses and a face mask before entering the mall to pick out clothes for her. He found an outfit—a loose, sleeveless cotton-linen top paired with floor-length jeans—that was casual yet exuded a gentle charm.
In MO Shut s eyes, Xia Xin had always been beautiful, gentle, and strong, distinct from many female celebrities in the industry. Imagining her in the outfit, he was certain it would suit her perfectly. Without hesitation, he bought it.
Back in the car, Xia Xin had dried her long hair. However, her clothes were still sopping wet. MO Shu directed her to a public restroom to change.
When Xia Xin emerged, looking refreshed and smart in her new outfit, MO Shu knew he’d made the right choice.
Due to time constraints, MO Shu couldn’t drive Xia Xin back to the film set and instead took her along to his audition. As non-staff were not allowed inside the audition hall, Xia Xin waited in the car.
After his audition, MO Shu came out in high spirits. He said, “I’ll treat you to dinner. What would you like?”
“Did the audition go well?” Xia Xin asked as she observed MO Shut s expression.
MO Shu slightly shook his head and said, “They’ll inform us about the results tomorrow, but I have a strong feeling it went well.”
Xia Xin realized that MO Shu was a very restrained person. Even though he was in a good mood now, from his expression, one could not tell that he was complacent. Only a faint smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
If it were Xia Xin, she would be humming happily right now.
However, due to the earlier incident with the pool, Xia Xin wasn’t in the mood for a meal and declined MO Shu’s offer.
MO Shu didn’t seem to mind and said, “That’s alright, I’ll treat you to a meal another time.”
That night, both of them found themselves on trending searches. The headline read: [Certain Male Actor’s Romance Confirmed].
The trend featured photos of MO Shu buying clothes for Xia Xin and her waiting for him in the car. Netizens were busy analyzing the photos, painting a picture of an inseparable pair deeply in love when in reality, it was nothing of tne sort..
