Chapter 766: Dancing for You
In the backstage dressing room.
Wen Wan was sitting in front of the makeup table, touching up her makeup, while her manager was helping her style her hair.
"There's still some time left. Why don't you rest for a bit? I'll call you when it's time to go to the hotel," the manager suggested.
Wen Wan smiled and shook her head. "No need. I'll just take a quick nap in the car on the way to the hotel."
The manager smiled, "You seem to be in a good mood today. I can't see any signs of fatigue at all."
Wen Wan didn't hide her feelings and gave a slight smile to her reflection in the mirror.
"That's because we're in Yunhai. This is where I was born and raised."
"Judging from the audience's reaction during today's screening, I think this movie is going to be a big hit..."
As she was speaking, someone knocked on the door.
"I'll get it," said the manager, then walked to the door and cautiously opened it a crack.
She initially thought it might be a reporter or staff member, but to her surprise, a young man was standing outside.
However, as soon as she saw who it was, the manager's expression immediately turned to shock.
She couldn't help but be shocked.
After all, she worked for Feifan Media.
And the person standing in front of her was the boss of her boss at Feifan Media.
"Mr... Mr. Chen..." she stammered.
"Is Wen Wan here?" Chen Fan asked.
"Yes, yes, she is."
She quickly stepped back and opened the door wide.
Chen Fan stepped inside. Wen Wan had already stood up and was smiling at him.
"Weiwei, close the door first," Wen Wan reminded her. The manager finally snapped out of her daze and quickly reached out to close the door.
In front of others, both of them seemed a bit uncomfortable.
Chen Fan smiled and spoke first, "Aren't you going to invite me to sit down?"
Wen Wan chuckled and gestured with her hand.
"Please, have a seat."
Seeing the expression on their faces, the manager quickly caught on and clapped her hands.
"Oh right, the crew just said they had something to discuss with me. I'll go check it out first."
Before Wen Wan could say anything, she had already opened the door and slipped out.
Wen Wan looked at Chen Fan with a slightly frustrated expression.
"Weiwei probably misunderstood."
Chen Fan asked, "Can she be trusted?"
"It's fine. Weiwei has been my manager since I first debuted. She brought me into the industry."
"For the past year or more, it's been just the two of us together every day. We have a very good relationship."
"That's good then."
Chen Fan nodded, then smiled, "If she's overthinking, let her overthink. There's no way to explain this kind of thing. The more you explain, the more suspicious it seems."
"Mm."
Wen Wan nodded slightly. She had long since grown accustomed to letting Chen Fan make all the decisions.
"You're leaving tomorrow?" he asked.
"Mm."
"So soon?"
"The movie is set to release nationwide the day after tomorrow, and we still have several cities left on the promotional tour. So the crew has to keep moving non-stop to finish the final promotions."
Chen Fan shook his head.
"Rushing around the country like this every day is really too exhausting."
"You don't need to personally attend every stop. If it's really too much, just take a few days off to rest."
Wen Wan stared at Chen Fan and asked with a smile, "Are you worried about me?"
She had originally intended to joke with Chen Fan, but to her surprise, he answered very seriously.
"Yes."
"I think you won't be able to keep this up."
Chen Fan's formal response made Wen Wan feel a bit embarrassed.
"It... it's really not a problem. The filming is already finished. Now it's just the final push, and I want the movie to do well too."
"Besides, this is the first movie your company has invested in, right? I want you to make more money."
Hearing this, Chen Fan smiled.
"There's no end to making money."
"By the way, how's that movie 《Perhaps Love》 going? Has filming started?"
"We've already filmed about a third of it. I took leave from that set to come do this promotional tour. As soon as the tour is over, I have to go straight back to the set."
Hearing this, Chen Fan frowned.
To be honest, he felt a bit regretful.
It seemed he had scheduled these two movies for Wen Wan too close together.
This way, she had absolutely no time to rest at all.
Wen Wan seemed to sense what Chen Fan was thinking and said with a smile,
"Don't worry, I'm not tired at all."
"Really, compared to other professions, being an actor is actually very relaxed. Plus, I'm the female lead, so everyone on set takes very good care of me..."
"I'm starting to really enjoy the process of filming now."
Chen Fan nodded, "That's good then."
Silence.
It seemed they had suddenly run out of things to say.
Even though they hadn't seen each other for so long, even though Wen Wan had a belly full of things she wanted to tell Chen Fan before coming to Yunhai.
But now that they were face to face, she didn't know how to start.
And she clearly sensed that although Chen Fan was trying his best to act natural, he was actually being overly cautious around her.
This wasn't the Chen Fan she had originally known.
Was it because her actions last time had startled or bothered him?
"Are you... are you going to attend the reception later?" she asked hesitantly, voicing the question in her heart.
Chen Fan shook his head, "I won't be going. Xiaoxi would be scared if left alone at home."
"Oh, alright then."
Wen Wan nodded, feeling a hint of disappointment in her heart.
She had originally thought they could spend more time together at the reception.
The atmosphere fell into silence again.
Just as Wen Wan was hesitating about what to say next, Chen Fan suddenly looked up at her.
"Don't push yourself too hard. Rest when you're tired."
"If you don't like this industry anymore, then stop. There's still a long road ahead."
Wen Wan smiled, "It's fine, I'm still a newcomer in the entertainment industry, so I need to work hard. And besides..."
"Besides, you said before that you'd help me win an Oscar in the future, so I need to work hard to make that happen."
Chen Fan gave a wry smile, "You still remember that?"
Wen Wan looked at him seriously, "I remember every word you've said."
Chen Fan sighed, then nodded firmly.
"I understand. Since this is what you want, I'll do my best to help you win an Oscar for Best Actress in the shortest time possible."
After saying this, he stood up.
"Xiaoxi is still waiting outside, I can't stay too long."
Wen Wan quickly stood up as well, "Then you should go. I need to get ready for the reception soon too."
Seeing Wen Wan staring at him, the emotion in her eyes impossible to hide.
Chen Fan hesitated for a moment, then suddenly turned and walked over to her, gently opening his arms and embracing Wen Wan.
His feelings for Wen Wan were complicated.
He couldn't even give her a clear promise, yet she was still willingly waiting for him.
Perhaps in this lifetime, he would never be able to marry Wen Wan.
But at the very least, he should make sure she doesn't get hurt.
"Take care of yourself."
Wen Wan's body stiffened, clearly stunned by this sudden gesture.
She had never expected Chen Fan to suddenly hug her like this.
Perhaps this hug was just out of friendly concern, but to Wen Wan, she could interpret more meaning from it.
So her heart began to race, butterflies in her stomach.
Even as Chen Fan turned to leave, Wen Wan seemed to still not have recovered from the huge surprise.
"Ah..."
Chen Fan had walked to the door when he heard Wen Wan's voice and turned back to look at her.
"Is there something else?"
Wen Wan's face was flushed, but she forced herself to act as normal as possible.
"I've been learning to dance recently. I... I'd like to dance for you to see."
Before Chen Fan could respond, Wen Wan stepped back, raised her arms, and took the starting position for a dance.
She had only performed two moves when Chen Fan froze.
Because he recognized it.
It was the dance that Princess Yushu had performed for General Mengyi in the movie they had just watched.
