Chapter 203: Actually Chasing After Celebrities
Xia Qinghuan knew that Jian Ai had a brother, but she still asked in a low voice to confirm, “Is this your brother?”
Jian Ai’s expression froze. Chen Jin was three years older than her, therefore he was indeed her brother. She nodded slightly. “He’s not my biological brother.”
That was the only way she could describe it. Otherwise, she wouldn’t know how to introduce Chen Jin to Xia Qinghuan.
Hearing this, Xia Qinghuan smiled and greeted Chen Jin, “Hello, Brother.”
Chen Jin acted naturally. He nodded at Xia Qinghuan with an easygoing expression and didn’t say anything before retreating to the kitchen.
“Sit anywhere,” Jian Ai said as she went to the table to pour a glass of water.
Xia Qinghuan sat down on the sofa and couldn’t help but look around Jian Ai’s house.
The entire house was probably not as big as her room, but it was very clean. Everything was tidied up, and the appliances that she should have were also present.
“It’s going to be demolished soon here. My family bought a new house in Haicheng District, but it’s not renovated yet,” Jian Ai casually said as she sat down.
“Really?” Xia Qinghuan was delighted to hear that. “Then, we’ll be living nearby in the future.”
Jian Ai smiled and nodded. She reached out her hand. “Let me see the script. I haven’t seen it yet.”
She initially thought the script would be the same as in the novel, but when Jian Ai flipped it open, she realized that there was almost nothing else besides the lines.
Some important lines would at most label the feelings needed for this line in brackets.
It looked tedious.
Xia Qinghuan had already marked out her lines in colored pens. As the third female lead, the number of lines she had was naturally not as much as the first and second female leads. However, for Xia Qinghuan, who was filming for the first time, it was not considered a small amount.
Fortunately, it was a youth drama, and the role played was about the same as Xia Qinghuan herself. The acting requirements were not that high, so as long as she was not too stiff, there should be no problem.
Xia Qinghuan chose a few more emotionally charging segments and Jian Ai helped her analyze them bit by bit. The two of them often exchanged opinions, and it was quite smooth.
“Let’s eat first!”
At this moment, Chen Jin had already finished cooking. He looked at the two people who were engrossed in their discussion and greeted them.
Xia Qinghuan did not stand on ceremony. She washed her hands and went to the dining table.
“Why didn’t I see Auntie and your brother?” Xia Qinghuan asked, puzzled.
Jian Ai said calmly, “My mother just finished her surgery. My brother has been taking care of her in the hospital these days.”
At this moment, Chen Jin raised his eyes to look at the script on the table and asked curiously, “What were the two of you looking at just now?”
“A script.” Jian Ai smiled and looked up at Chen Jin. “Qinghuan is going to film. The female lead is Yun Buyao.”
Hearing Yun Buyao, Chen Jin was stunned.
When he came back to her senses, he said agitatedly, “Really? Yun Buyao?”
Xia Qinghuan nodded repeatedly. From Chen Jin’s appearance, she knew that he also liked Yun Buyao.
“Are you her fan too? I admire her too!”
Chen Jin nodded fervently with a silly look on his face. His look of a fanboy was obvious. “Oh, she’s a goddess. Can you help me get her autograph?”
“No problem. If you’re free, I can take you around the production team!” Xia Qinghuan was exceptionally passionate when she saw someone of her own kind.
“Alright, alright!” Chen Jin agreed.
Jian Ai: “…”
She didn’t expect Chen Jin to actually chase after celebrities? She really couldn’t tell!
After a while, Chen Jin and Xia Qinghuan talked about Yun Buyao’s works. Jian Ai had not even seen some of them, but Chen Jin did.
It seemed that he was a true fan.
