On June 9th in Beijing, Lin Feng leaned against the railing, watching the flight information scrolling on the electronic screen. Liu Haochun stood beside him, holding an unopened bottle of mineral water.
"What's there to be nervous about?" Lin Feng turned to look at her. "The college entrance exam is over, relax a bit."
"Brother Feng, it's not that I'm nervous," Liu Haochun said softly, "it's just that—after the college entrance exam is over, I feel a sudden emptiness."
"Once you get into the Beijing Film Academy, you won't feel empty anymore," Lin Feng said with a smile, patting her shoulder. "You'll have a full schedule of major courses, electives, and practical classes."
Just then, a clear voice rang out from the crowd: "Brother Feng! Hao Chun!"
Tian Xiwei, carrying a schoolbag on her back and a bag in her hand, grabbed Lin Feng's arm and exclaimed, "I'm finally done with my exams! I don't have to do math problems anymore!"
"Look how happy you are." Lin Feng straightened her askew backpack strap. "How did the exam go?"
"Anyway, I wrote down everything I knew, and for the ones I didn't know—" Xiaotian stuck out his tongue, "I just guessed C."
Suddenly remembering something, she handed over the bag she was carrying. "Brother Feng, guess what I brought? My mom made zongzi (sticky rice dumplings), especially the cured pork kind, they smell amazing!"
She then took a small package out of the bag and handed it to Liu Haochun: "Haochun, this is for you, a plain rice dumpling, eat it with sugar."
"Thank you, Weiwei." Liu Haochun took the package.
"Let's go eat first." Lin Feng took Xiao Tian's schoolbag and slung it over his shoulder. "What do you want to eat?"
"Hot pot! The spicy kind!" Xiaotian jumped up immediately. "I've been craving this since the exam! Hot pot!"
yds!
"Okay, let's have hot pot then." Lin Feng shook his head with a smile, "But let's make it clear first, don't blame me if you get an upset stomach."
In the private room of the hot pot restaurant, Xiao Tian picked up a piece of tripe, dipped it in and out of the pot a few times, and stuffed it into his mouth, saying indistinctly, "Brother Feng, what about the gift you mentioned last time? I've been thinking about it for half a month."
"What's the rush?" Lin Feng handed her a glass of plum juice. "I'll take you to see it after you finish eating."
"Is it clothes?"
"no."
"Is that a new phone?"
Lin Feng smiled and shook his head, ignoring her. Liu Haochun quietly cooked vegetables in the clear broth pot, listening to Xiao Tian guess. She was also very curious about what gift Brother Feng would prepare.
After finishing their meal, the car stopped in front of the Fengrui Film and Television building. Xiaotian stared wide-eyed at the familiar glass-walled building: "The gift is at the company?"
"You'll see when we get up there." Lin Feng led them into the elevator.
Today is the Dragon Boat Festival, and the company is deserted. Lin Feng pushed open the office door, and there were two exquisite gift boxes on the table, with red bows tied on them.
"This is your graduation gift." He pushed the gift box in front of the two of them. "Congratulations, happy high school graduation."
"Wow! The packaging is so exquisite!" Xiaotian couldn't wait to open it, thinking it contained jewelry, but when she saw what was inside, she was suddenly stunned.
It was a thick booklet with the title "So Lovely Us" printed on the cover, and a line of smaller print below: Huang Chengzi's Character Script.
"This is... a script?" She looked up at Lin Feng, her eyes filled with disbelief.
"Yes." Lin Feng nodded, then looked at Liu Haochun, "Open yours and take a look too."
Liu Haochun carefully opened the gift box. The cover was printed with "Hello, Old Times" and below it was written "Yu Zhouzhou Character Script".
Her fingertips traced the words, and her heart pounded. Was this a script for the female lead?
"These were specially prepared for you two." Lin Feng looked at them. "Xiao Tian's Huang Chengzi is lively and spirited. Hao Chun's Yu Zhouzhou is charming and delicate. You two each have a drama, and you're both the female lead. Do you like them?"
"I love it! I love it so much!" Xiaotian wiped away her tears, then smiled, revealing two cute little tiger teeth. "Huang Chengzi's name is so cute, just like me!"
Liu Haochun held the script, her fingertips trembling slightly. When she turned to the first page and saw the description of Yu Zhouzhou practicing dance, she suddenly remembered her own days in the practice room every morning. "Thank you, Brother Feng."
"No need to thank me," Lin Feng said with a smile, "You deserve it. But~" he changed the subject, "Xiao Tian's drama will start filming first, and he'll probably be ready to join the crew next week. Hao Chun's will be a little later."
"Huh? Filming starts next week?" Xiaotian's face instantly fell. "I was thinking of going to Disneyland this summer—"
My summer vacation ended before it even began.
"How about we film Hao Chun's first?" Lin Feng teased her deliberately, "Can we postpone yours?"
"No way!" Xiaotian immediately hugged the script tightly. "Film mine first! Who said I didn't want to film? I'd be happier to play the female lead!"
Liu Haochun looked at her and said, "Actually, it's better to film earlier. After filming, you can go out and have some fun."
"Haochun is so sensible." Lin Feng ruffled Xiaotian's hair. "So many people are desperate to play the female lead but don't even have a chance. You, on the other hand, are so picky."
"I'm not being picky at all—" Xiao Tian muttered softly, flipping through a few pages of the script. Suddenly, he pointed to a certain scene and said, "Brother Feng, Huang Chengzi actually fought with the male lead for watermelon? That's just like me!"
"Otherwise, how can it be called tailor-made?" Lin Feng leaned back in his chair.
Xiao Tian excitedly called her mother to share the good news, while Liu Haochun sat quietly on the sofa, reading her lines word by word.
Tian Xiwei leaned on the table, pointing to lines from the drama "So Cute Us" with her finger: "Haochun, look, Huang Chengzi actually dared to talk back to the male lead! Her personality is just like mine!"
Liu Haochun was flipping through "Hello, Old Times" when he heard this: "Yu Zhouzhou was also very brave. When she was little, she went to the movies alone and even helped a lost child find her mother."
"So what?" Oda retorted, raising her chin defiantly. "Yellow Orange got into a fight with an older boy to get her friend's stolen comic book back!"
"Alright, alright," Lin Feng looked up from the pile of documents, chuckled, and tapped the table. "Both of your characters have their strengths, stop arguing. Xiao Tian, Huang Chengzi's charm lies in the kindness hidden beneath her recklessness; Hao Chun, Yu Zhouzhou's appeal lies in the resilience within her quietness, understand?"
The two exchanged a glance and nodded obediently. Suddenly, Xiao Tian pointed to a certain scene and asked, "Brother Feng, here Huang Chengzi says, 'I don't want to be a lady, a lady can't eat watermelon in big bites,' did you write that based on me?"
Raymond Lam raised an eyebrow: "Guess?"
"Definitely!" Xiao Tian shook her head smugly, then turned to see the script in Liu Haochun's hand and leaned closer. "Haochun, does Yu Zhouzhou have any romantic scenes? Is it with that guy named Lin Yang?"
Liu Haochun's cheeks flushed slightly, and he softly hummed in agreement.
"Wow, are there any kissing scenes?" Oda's eyes lit up.
"Weiwei!" Liu Haochun quickly closed the script.
"Alright, it's getting late," he glanced at his watch. "I'll take you back to your apartment and show you what I can do for you tonight."
"Yay! Feng-ge's cooking is the best!" Xiao Tian immediately jumped up, grabbed the script, and ran outside.
Lin Feng came in that evening carrying several bags, including a watermelon. "I bought some vegetables, and this is the watermelon you all like."
"Wow! This watermelon is huge!" Xiaotian rushed over and hugged it. "Haochun, quick, get a knife! Let's cut it in half to quench our thirst!"
"Wash your hands first." Lin Feng put the vegetables into the kitchen. "Oh, right, I specially went back and brought back some cured pork trotters. I'll make you some stewed vermicelli for dinner tonight."
"Cured pork knuckle!" Xiao Tian's eyes widened. "I haven't had it in ages! Brother Feng, you're so kind!"
Lin Feng put the pig's trotters into the sink to wash them. "Brother Feng, how long do we need to stew these pig's trotters?"
"Pressure cook for half an hour, then add the glass noodles and cook for another ten minutes," Lin Feng said, skimming off any foam. "You guys go outside and wait here; there's a lot of smoke."
"No, I want to watch it smell good." Oda stayed in the kitchen, sniffing the air. "It already smells good!"
Seeing her greedy look, I couldn't help but laugh: "Go and steam the zongzi, you can eat them with pig's feet."
"Okay!" Xiao Tian immediately ran out, not forgetting to turn back and remind him before leaving, "Brother Feng, don't you dare sneak a bite!"
Half an hour later, the pressure cooker hissed and steamed. Lin Feng had just opened the valve when Xiao Tian, smelling the aroma, ran in: "Is it ready? Is it ready?"
"Don't rush, wait for the pressure to release." Lin Feng patted her head with a smile. As soon as he lifted the lid, a rich aroma of meat wafted out.
"Wow! This is the taste!" Xiao Tian reached for it with her chopsticks, but Lin Feng stopped her, saying, "It's hot!"
"I just want to try a bite!" Xiaotian started acting spoiled, pulling his arm and shaking it back and forth.
"I just can't do anything with you." Lin Feng couldn't persuade her otherwise, so he took a pair of chopsticks, picked up a small piece, blew on it to cool it down, and handed it to her, "Just one bite."
Xiao Tian immediately stuffed it into her mouth, her eyes lighting up instantly: "Delicious! It's exactly the same as my grandma's stew! Brother Feng, you're amazing!"
Liu Haochun was also drawn over by the aroma, and Lin Feng put a piece on her plate as well. She ate it in small bites, her eyes full of surprise: "It smells so good!"
"Eat more if you like." Lin Feng poured the pig's feet into the pot, added the soaked glass noodles, and said, "It'll be ready in ten more minutes."
In the living room, Xiao Tian had been waiting impatiently. Seeing Lin Feng bring out the pig's feet with vermicelli, she exclaimed, "I want more vermicelli!"
"Slow down, no one's going to take it from you." She sat down herself. Xiaotian had already picked up a piece of pig's trotter and started gnawing on it, oil dripping from the corner of her mouth, but she didn't care, only saying, "It smells so good! These glass noodles have absorbed the meat juices, they're even better than the pig's trotter!"
Liu Haochun ate slowly. She picked up a piece of rice dumpling, dipped it in some sugar, and handed it to Lin Feng: "Brother Feng, try this, it's very sweet."
"Thank you." Lin Feng had just taken it when Xiao Tian glared at him: "Hao Chun, why did you only give it to Brother Feng and not mine?"
"Here you go." Liu Haochun quickly grabbed another one and handed it over. Xiao Tian finally accepted it with satisfaction, muttering, "That's more like it."
Lin Feng watched them bicker and chuckled as he picked up a piece of pig's trotter with a fork.
"Brother Feng, you can't eat this!" Xiao Tian quickly stopped him. "Eating this will make you unable to find a wife!"
Liu Haochun asked curiously, "Really?"
"Of course it's true!" Oda said seriously. "Even the kids around here know that!"
Raymond Lam raised an eyebrow: "It doesn't matter, if I can't marry her, I can't marry her."
"How can that be!" Liu Haochun suddenly spoke up, his cheeks flushed. "If Brother Feng can't find a wife, I—"
I'm marrying Brother Feng.
"What the hell?" Xiao Tian's chopsticks clattered onto the table, her eyes wide as saucers. "Hao Chun, you're trying to steal Feng Ge from me? I treat you like a sister, and you actually want to be my sister-in-law?"
"I'm not—" Liu Haochun's face turned even redder, and he waved his hands helplessly.
"If anyone's going to be in this position, it should be me!" Xiao Tian slammed his hand on the table, puffed out his chest, and declared, "I've known Feng Ge the longest; we even slept in the same bed when we were kids!"
"What nonsense are you two talking about!" Lin Feng quickly interrupted them. "Eat your food, or it'll get cold."
After dinner, Tian Xiwei and Liu Haochun argued over who would wash the dishes. "Let me do it, I'm strong!" Xiao Tian rolled up her sleeves and rushed into the kitchen.
"Let me do it, you can't get it clean," Liu Haochun said, stopping her with a bottle of dish soap.
"Who says I can't wash them clean!" Xiao Tian retorted, snatching the rag. "I washed Feng Ge's dishes last time, and they were shinier than yours!"
That evening, the three sat on the sofa chatting. Xiao Tian, hugging a cushion, excitedly planned their summer vacation: "After I finish filming, let's go to the beach again! We didn't get enough fun last time!"
Liu Haochun said softly, "I might have to go home first. My parents said they miss me."
"Of course," Lin Feng said, looking at her. "It's been half a year since I've been home. I should go back and visit my aunt and uncle."
They chatted until almost 10 p.m., then Raymond Lam got up to leave. "You guys should get some rest. Tomorrow I'll take you to the amusement park for a day, just to relax before work starts."
"Yay! Long live Brother Feng!" Xiao Tian immediately jumped up from the sofa.
After seeing Liu Haochun off to go home, Lin Feng took Tian Xiwei to Jiangcheng, where the crew of "So Cute Us" was already waiting.
The opening ceremony was simple, with few media invited. Only the crew members gathered together, bowing to the cameras. Tian Xiwei, wearing her school uniform from the drama, stood next to Lin Feng; this was her first time playing a couple with him.
"Are you nervous?" Lin Feng asked her in a low voice.
"A little," Xiaotian said, clutching the hem of her clothes. "What if I don't act well?"
"Believe in yourself," Raymond Lam patted her shoulder. "You are Huang Chengzi, and Huang Chengzi is you. Just relax."
The first scene was filmed where Huang Chengzi and Tan Song were fighting over a comic book in the classroom. As soon as Tian Xiwei shouted "Action," she instantly got into character, pouting as she grabbed the book, glaring angrily when Tan Song teased her, and hurriedly hiding the book when the teacher found out. All her actions were so natural, it was like she was playing herself.
"Cut!" said the assistant director.
Lin Feng came over and looked at the footage he had just taken. He smiled with satisfaction. This girl certainly hadn't disappointed him.
During the break, Xiao Tian huddled in front of the monitor to watch the playback, grinning from ear to ear: "Brother Feng, look, didn't I look especially fierce when I glared at you just now?"
"He's fierce, but kind of cute," Lin Feng joked.
"Not cute at all!" she secretly thought. If only she could play around with Feng Ge like this in real life, and it would be best if they could go from school uniforms to marriage like in the drama. Thinking of this, her cheeks suddenly turned red, and she quickly lowered her head and pretended to read the script.
The filming went more and more smoothly afterward. Tian Xiwei seemed to be born to play this kind of energetic girl. Whether it was her awkwardness when feeding Tan Song or her jealousy when she saw Tan Song talking to other girls, she acted it vividly.
"Cut! Perfect!"
"That look just now was spot-on!" the assistant director said with a smile. "Xiaotian really got into the role, didn't he?"
Xiaotian's face flushed red, and she hurriedly explained, "No, I just think that's how yellow oranges should be."
