Chapter 54 Gu Yebei And Wu Minger  

It seemed like Gu Yebei had completely changed into a different person as he walked up the stairs leading into the huge hall.

Several cameras followed behind him and took different shots. This was the first scene of the film, which was when the emperor, Gu Yebei, entered the hall to start the meeting with the ministers.

This was the first scene in the film, and its purpose was to just introduce the emperor to the audience.

Gu Yebei swung his robe back and turned around, and for a second, He Xinyan almost thought she was looking at Gu Yechen. The female workers and actresses squealed excitedly as they stared at Gu Yebei.

"Cut! Okay, pass!" The first scene went by extremely smoothly, and Gu Yebei went on to prepare for his next scene.

The second scene was with the second female lead, and it took three takes to pass. On the last take, Yang Siyue marched proudly onto the set, and it immediately attracted the eyes of several people.

Yang Siyue had recovered her proud and cold demeanor, and she walked over to her chair, which was in between the director and Gu Yebei.

After sitting down, she looked around and her eyes landed on He Xinyan. She smiled before turning around and she said something to her assistant.

He Xinyan watched as the assistant walked over to her and said, "Sister Yang asks for you and your assistant to go over and sit next to her."

He Xinyan's eyes widened in surprise. Sit next to Yang Siyue? That would mean she would also be sitting close to the director. As a small and unknown actor, He Xinyan wasn't qualified enough to sit next to the director. However, she couldn't reject Yang Siyue's offer either.

After much thought, He Xinyan decided to go over with Wu Minger.

"Sit down!" Yang Siyue said with a smile. Yang Siyue pushed Gu Yebei's chair away and He Xinyan sat down in the middle next to Yang Siyue. Wu Minger sat down next to He Xinyan and to the right of Gu Yebei's chair.

Yang Siyue excitedly held onto He Xinyan's hand, "I'm filming next! Are you going to watch?"

He Xinyan nodded her head, "Of course!"

"Five minute break! Siyue, get ready!" Director Ma called out after the second scene had ended. Gu Yebei came back down to the crew and walked over to Yang Siyue, He Xinyan, and Wu Minger.

He sat down in his chair and drank some water, "How was I, little Yanyan? Handsome, right?"

He Xinyan rolled her eyes and ignored Gu Yebei, but Wu Minger nodded her head excitedly. Gu Yebei looked down at Wu Minger, who was sitting next to him and smiled.

"Are you little Yanyan's assistant?" Gu Yebei asked.

Wu Minger blushed and nodded her head slowly, "Yes, I'm Wu Minger."

"That's a cute name."

Wu Minger's face got even more red, and it looked like a tomato, which made Gu Yebei smile. Yang Siyue saw this and she rolled her eyes before gossiping with her new best friend.

"Yanyan, his fans don't know but I do. That stupid Gu Yebei actually likes cute girls." Siyue's eyes were sparkling as he talked about small gossip of other idols.

He Xinyan's mouth opened in shock, "Really?! I thought he liked hot girls!"

"Yep, that's what outsiders think, but no. Gu Yebei is actually attracted to cute and short girls. Your assistant. . . What's her name?'

"Wu Minger."

"Yep, she's definitely Gu Yebei's type." Yang Siyue giggled as the two of them gossiped together. Wu Minger was indeed very pretty, but in a different way from He Xinyan or Yang Siyue.

While He Xinyan could be cute and cool, Wu Minger was simply cute. Extremely cute. . . She had a chubby face and large, round eyes. If Yang Siyue was right, and Gu Yebei did indeed like cute girls, then Wu Minger was totally his type.

The four of them quickly merged together and they talked happily amongst themselves. As they were talking about Gu Yebei's costume, someone suddenly called Yang Siyue's name.

The four of them simultaneously turned their heads around and He Xinyan and Wu Minger's face immediately fell when they saw who it was.

Li Yuyan was in a simple gown for a maid and she quickly walked over with a fake smile, "Sister Yang, I'm Li Yuyan. I really like you!" She then turned to Gu Yebei and a blush spread over her cheeks, "Senior Gu, I'm also your fan. Your acting is really good."

Gu Yebei smiled respectfully but didn't say anything else to Li Yuyan. In front of strangers, he was just like his brother, cold and aloof.

Yang Siyue's smile also disappeared as she lifted her chin up proudly and didn't respond. He Xinyan watched her reaction and couldn't help but think that Yang Siyue's expectations were pretty high.

With makeup on, Li Yuyan was also quite good-looking, although it was far from He Xinyan. However, Yang Siyue still treated her coldly.

He Xinyan grinned happily. Maybe she was just destined to be friends with her idol!

Li Yuyan unhappily pouted and turned her attention to He Xinyan. She narrowed her eyes before putting on a smile, "Yanyan, you are here too!"

He Xinyan glanced at Li Yuyan and didn't respond.

"Do you know her?" Yang Siyue asked.

Before He Xinyan could respond, Li Yuyan did, "Yes! Sister Yang, Yanyan is my sister."

"Stepsister," He Xinyan corrected.

Yang Siyue wasn't a dumb person, and she immediately noticed that He Xinyan didn't really like Li Yuyan. Their relationship probably wasn't very close. . .

Wu Minger glared at Li Yuyan unhappily and rolled her eyes.

"Minger, you are my fan, right?" Gu Yebei asked as he raised one eyebrow up seductively. A blush appeared on Wu Minger's face as she nodded her head.

"I didn't know my fans were this cute."

Li Yuyan took this opportunity to butt in, "Senior Gu, I am your fan too!"

"Looks like not all of my fans are cute."
