After breakfast.
Chen Feng tidied up the kitchen and walked out, dragging his suitcase.
He was preparing to return to Beijing.
Just as he was about to call a taxi to leave, his phone suddenly rang.
He picked it up and saw that it was Su Yuehong.
He answered the call.
"Hello, Su Xiaopang, is there something you need me for?"
"Yes, there's really something I need you for. Have you left yet? I want to meet you and talk."
Chen Feng smiled and said, "What a coincidence, I haven't left yet. I'm still at the Actor Cabin, just about to leave."
"That's great, wait for me, I'll be there in twenty minutes."
After speaking, she hung up the phone directly.
Chen Feng had no choice but to turn back.
The Actor Cabin wouldn't be delisted until noon, so he could stay for a while longer.
More than twenty minutes later.
The sound of a car horn blared outside.
It was probably Su Yuehong.
Chen Feng dragged his luggage out of the small courtyard again.
Indeed.
Su Yuehong was driving a red 'Don't Touch Me' and waving at him from the roadside.
Chen Feng immediately walked over.
After getting in the car.
"What do you need me for? You're not going to treat me to a meal before I leave, are you?"
Chen Feng asked casually.
"Eating is a small matter."
Su Yuehong smiled and said as she started the car, "Do you remember when we ate together last time, I mentioned I had a friend in Hengdian? He was the one who told me he'd seen Lin Zu hanging around film crews in Hengdian."
"I remember."
Chen Feng glanced at her, "Your boyfriend?"
"Sort of."
A faint look of shyness appeared on Su Yuehong's face, and she said with a smile, "He's from the directing department, named Liu Boguang."
"Alright, so what's the matter?"
"It's just... I'm a bit embarrassed to say."
"One-inch photo, set up."
Chen Feng pouted, "What's there to be embarrassed about with me? You didn't even bat an eye when you helped me, and if I didn't give face, I wouldn't be Chen Feng. Tell me, what is it?"
"Then I'll say it."
Su Yuehong smiled and said, "Actually, when I was video chatting with him last night, I mentioned you. Coincidentally, he's filming a new drama in Hengdian."
"As you know, in this industry, whether you're a director or an actor, it's very difficult to break out without a strong background."
"He's filmed two small rural-themed movies, but they were both lukewarm."
"They didn't even qualify for theatrical release and ended up being online-only films."
"This time, he's filming a drama set in the Republic of China period."
"The leads he found are also eighteenth-tier small stars, the kind with no fame."
"So, after he heard about my relationship with you, he suddenly had an idea and wanted to ask you if you could make a cameo in his drama."
"However, because the drama is already halfway filmed, a lead role is definitely out of the question."
"It's just... adding a role, or a cameo as an extra or something. To put it bluntly, he wants to borrow your current popularity and traffic to boost the show."
At this point, Su Yuehong looked at Chen Feng nervously and asked softly, "Chen Feng, his..."
"No problem."
Chen Feng replied casually.
"Ah? That quick?"
Su Yuehong was stunned and said in surprise, "You agreed just like that?"
"Nonsense, what else? I was just an extra to begin with. Now, at most, I'm an extra with a bit of traffic. Since you've asked, how could I refuse?"
"Thank you so much."
Su Yuehong let out a long breath and said with a smile, "Phew, that's good. I was afraid you'd be too embarrassed, like Song Yang."
"Song Yang?"
Chen Feng was startled.
"Yes, your class monitor Song Yang. You haven't even forgotten him, have you?"
"I haven't forgotten."
Chen Feng asked suspiciously, "Is he in Hengdian?"
"Yes, he is."
Su Yuehong nodded and said, "I heard he's doing pretty well now, playing the fourth male lead in one of Guo Xiaosi's movies, and he has a certain fan base now."
"Oh. You looked for him?"
"Yes, I did."
Su Yuehong said helplessly, "I actually tried to contact Song Yang through Lin Zu. After all, he's your class monitor, and I'm not familiar with him. But he refused without a second thought. As Lin Zu said, he was too embarrassed. He's playing the fourth male lead in Guo Xiaosi's crew, how could he possibly be an extra for you?"
"Heh heh."
Chen Feng chuckled, "What he said makes sense."
"Right?"
Su Yuehong smiled and glanced at Chen Feng, "You're still easier to talk to."
"I'm different. I'm born to be an extra; I'm destined to be an Extra King in this life."
"Oh, come on."
Su Yuehong exaggeratedly said, "You're incredibly popular now. The internet is full of posts and topics discussing you. Videos of your classic scenes have been dominating the charts online, especially the Succubus Crossdresser makeup."
At this point, Su Yuehong suddenly looked at Chen Feng with excitement, "Hey, did you wear prosthetics that day? Why did you look so much like a succubus? So... sexy, it makes me want to... Hehe, you know."
"Hey, hey, hey."
Chen Feng suddenly reached out and pointed ahead, "Su Xiaopang, you're driving. Watch the road, don't keep looking at me. Also, you have a boyfriend, don't always drool over me."
"Hehe, don't worry, I'm an old driver."
"You're an old driver now?"
"Right?"
"I really didn't see that. I thought you were still a virgin."
"You're annoying."
Su Yuehong suddenly let out a soft whine, "I'm talking about a driver who drives, not that kind of driver. I... I am a virgin."
"Ah?"
Chen Feng looked at Su Yuehong.
Su Yuehong's face turned red.
She gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Why are you looking at me? You don't believe me?"
"Don't you have a boyfriend?"
"That... it's not official yet."
"Oh."
Chen Feng suddenly realized, "So, you two haven't broken the ice yet?"
"That's right."
"Then you're helping him like this?"
Chen Feng asked suspiciously, "Does he not have any connections himself? Isn't he from the directing department? What about his classmates and teachers?"
"Him, sigh!"
Su Yuehong sighed and said, "He's a bit thin-skinned and embarrassed to ask for help. Usually, when something like this comes up, I'm the one who steps forward."
Chen Feng: "..."
Su Yuehong turned her head and glanced at him, "What's with that expression?"
Chen Feng shook his head, "Nothing."
"There must be something, what are you thinking? Just say what's on your mind."
"Really nothing."
Su Yuehong said angrily, "I know you too well, hurry up and tell me. What do you really want to say?"
Chen Feng blinked, "What I say might not be pleasant to hear."
"It's okay."
Su Yuehong said naturally, "He's not an official boyfriend yet, I just have some feelings. You can say whatever you want, emotionally, I trust you more."
Chen Feng was startled.
Then he smiled and said, "Heh heh, Su Xiaopang, then I'll say it."
"Mhm, go ahead."
Chen Feng took a deep breath and said, "From a man's perspective, being thin-skinned is really no excuse. A responsible man steps up when faced with problems. From a professional perspective, a thin-skinned man is really not suited to this industry. Letting a woman take the lead in everything is incredibly weak."
Su Yuehong: "..."
Chen Feng shrugged, "You told me to say it."
"Phew, alright."
Su Yuehong let out a long breath and said softly, "Let's see. Anyway, you've already agreed to me, so let's go there."
"Okay, when?"
"Now."
"Now? Straight to the airport?"
"Yes."
"Alright."
Chen Feng leaned back comfortably, closed his eyes, and murmured, "It's still better to be alone. Anywhere is home. One person eats his fill, the whole family isn't hungry."
Su Yuehong turned her head and glanced at him.
A strange glint flashed in her eyes.
