<h4>Chapter 79</h4>


    The next day, Ji Nian was woken up early by Xiao Tang''s phone call. She hurriedly got ready and rushed to the filming location.


    Since Shen Shuyao was still away on another shoot and hadn''t returned, Ji Nian''s scenes were filmed first in the morning.


    Today went quite smoothly, as yesterday Yu Luobai had given her another acting lesson. Overall, her mindset was much betterpared to yesterday, and she wasn''t as nervous at least.


    "Xiao Nian, you did well today," the Director said with a smile. Although her acting was average, with her stunning looks alone, she could captivate the audience for a long time.


    Ji Nian was pleased to be praised, her efforts had finally paid off a little bit. "Thank you, Director. I''ll keep working hard!" she said.


    The Director nodded in satisfaction. "Young people should have that drive." With that, he left.


    Meanwhile, Cheng Liran walked by emotionlessly, picked up a bottle of water from the table, and started drinking it.


    Ji Nian nced at the man, wondering why the original host''s mind hadn''t been hurting recently. After two days of filming, it seemed her body wasn''t experiencing any abnormalities.


    Could it be because they had been seeing each other frequently these past few days? Had the original host''s consciousness be immune?


    Nevermind, she couldn''t be bothered to overthink it. It was noon now, and she was nning to go to thepany to rehearse with Yu Luobai again and persuade him to give her another acting lesson if he had time.


    Then Ji Nian suddenly remembered the matter of renting a house. She took out her phone and texted He Yi.


    Ji Nian: I want to rent a ce in the city.


    He Yi: You''re nning to move out?


    Ji Nian: Of course, I can''t keep staying at Shuyao''s house.


    He Yi: That''s true, but I remember thepany usually provides amodation for artists.


    Ji Nian: Why didn''t you tell me earlier?


    He Yi: I might have forgotten before.


    Ji Nian: If they provide amodation, then where would I stay? Does this mean I can save some money?


    He Yi: Your poprity is doing well now, and your future prospects seem promising if nothing unexpected happens. Let me check with thepany about where they can arrange for you to stay.


    Ji Nian: Love you~ *sending hearts*


    He Yi: Sis, does Shuyao know you''re nning to move out?


    Ji Nian: I''ll tell her when she''s back.


    He Yi: Okay, we''re about to board the ne.


    Ji Nian: Got it.


    After discussing the moving matter, Ji Nian headed to thepany. She left the filming location, put on her standard face mask, and got in the car.


    Upon arriving at thepany, Ji Nian went straight to the rehearsal room. Just like yesterday, the dance studio door was open, and she peeked inside, hearing the music ying.


    They were so handsome, Ji Nian''s heart started fluttering as she stared at the group of good-looking guys, her eyes sparkling.


    As the center, Yu Luobai was wearing a ck T-shirt, hip-hop pants, and white sneakers, moving to the music.


    "Wow," Ji Nian whispered in awe. Yu Luobai lookedpletely different when dancing, so captivating.


    When rehearsal ended and everyone was getting ready to leave, Yu Luobai had already noticed the fluffy head peeking from the doorway. His eyes crinkled with amusement, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.


    Ji Nian saw that everyone had left and entered, giving the man a thumbs up. "Teacher Yu is so handsome!"


    Yu Luobai casually picked up a bottle of water. Seeing that the woman was only carrying a file bag, he asked with a smile, "No homemade lunch today?"


    Ji Nian looked at the script in her hand, took off her mask and put it in the file bag, then lifted her head with a smile. "Nope, I''m going to mooch off your lunch today."


    Yu Luobai raised his eyebrows, grinning. "Feel free to mooch."


    Ji Nian studied the man''s casual outfit today. Although it was simple and ordinary, it looked incredibly good on him, giving off a campus heartthrob vibe - a roguish charm.


    It was a pity, though, that the T-shirt covered his abspletely. Ji Nian couldn''t help but nce down at the man''s stomach area as the thought crossed her mind.


    Yu Luobai had just finished drinking when he noticed the woman staring at him intently. He couldn''t help butugh. "What''s up? Where are you looking?"


    Ji Nian had spent enough time with Yu Luobai to feel less reserved. Realizing her little thought had been exposed, sheughed it off without embarrassment.


    Yu Luobai noticed that the woman had put on some makeup today, probably because she was filming. It made her face look more exquisite.


    "I told you to try feeling it yesterday, but you didn''t," Yu Luobai joked.


    Ji Nian was quite tempted too. Rounding it off, she had lived almost two lifetimes but had never experienced the sensation of abs before.


    She blinked her bright eyes at the man and said with a smile, "I wouldn''t dare take advantage of Teacher Yu."


    Yu Luobai found her endearing expression amusing. That exquisitely beautiful face carried an air of allure, yet her smile made her seem almost naive.


    He raised his eyebrows. "It''s fine, I don''t mind."


    As soon as the words left his mouth, Ji Nian extended a finger and gently poked his stomach. In an instant, he froze, his mind going nk.


    Ji Nian poked tentatively at first, her expression filled with wonder. Then she poked harder, her bright eyes clouded with confusion as she asked, "Teacher Yu, why are your abs soft?"


    Yu Luobai was stunned, feeling as if an electric current had passed through his body, sending a tingling sensation all over. His heartbeat quickened.


    Ji Nian saw the man''s silence and looked up at him quizzically, blinking herrge eyes. "Teacher Yu?"


    Yu Luobai snapped out of it and stared at the woman, his gaze darkening slightly as he said in a slightly hoarse voice, "Xiao Nian, you''re quite bold."


    Ji Nian felt a little embarrassed. Just now, she didn''t know what had gotten into her. She had simply thought about it, but before she could react, she had unconsciously reached out her hand...


    "Oh, Teacher Yu, I only used one finger to poke you," she said with a yful blink of her eyes.


    Yu Luobai felt exasperated by her words. He pushed aside the strange thoughts in his mind, ruffled the woman''s hair, and said with a smile, "Let''s go, I''ll take you to the music room."


    "Aren''t you going to take a shower?" Ji Nian asked as she followed him.


    Yu Luobai stopped in his tracks, causing the woman behind him to bump into him. Hearing her yelp in pain, the curve of his smile deepened.


    "Do you find my sweat smell unpleasant?" Yu Luobai turned around and asked with a smile.


    Ji Nian rubbed her forehead where she had bumped into him. After a moment''s thought, she gave a ttering smile. "Not at all, even when Teacher Yu sweats, it smells nice."


    Yu Luobaiughed out loud. He didn''t know why, but every time he met her, his mood became exceptionally pleasant and rxed.


    "You''re quite good at ttery," Yu Luobai said, his eyes crinkling with amusement.


    Ji Nian looked at him with bright eyes and smiled, "Of course, I still need Teacher Yu''s help with my acting skills."


    Meanwhile, Peng He had already arranged for their lunch in the music room. Yesterday, he had noticed the woman eyeing Yu Luobai''s meat, so today he had prepared two portions.


    As soon as Ji Nian entered, she greeted Peng He politely, "Good afternoon."


    Peng He turned to see that the woman hadn''t brought her own food today and said with a smile, "You''re here, good timing. I just prepared your lunch, afraid you wouldn''t have any meat to eat."


    "Haha, thank you, I didn''t bring anything today," Ji Nian said with a smile.
