"No, absolutely not," Summer smiled as she assured Bubu, "He must not be interested in someone like me, and with his status, he doesn't lack women at all. So, we are just friends. Don't jump to conclusions."
Taking a sip of water, she set down her cup and said to Bubu, "Alright, you should hurry up and take a shower. I need to go over the script as tomorrow's shoot is quite intense with several scenes to film."
"Okay," the girl nodded and watched her sister stride towards the room.
In the next room, Spencer emerged from the bathroom. Living in this small space next to Summer felt more comfortable and fulfilling than living in a grand mansion.
Drying his hair and lying flat on the bed, Spencer remembered her happy demeanor tonight, causing a slight upward curve on his lips.
All this joy was what he brought to her.
Closing his eyes, his thoughts wandered back to high school. The white school building, the scorching afternoon, her petite figure swiftly moving through the stairwell, basking in the warm sunlight, like a fairy with speckles all over her, like an elf.
After PE class, they would share a bottle of water, take a walk under the moon, solve problems in the classroom together, and he'd teach her how to draw...
These memories, after the breakup, became the most vivid in Spencer's mind, clearer with time.
The girls who were once close to him, now had no contact, their faces and even their names forgotten...
His ex-girlfriends, who once filled his lonely years, left no impression on him, as if they were unrelated to him.
Summer filled his heart and eyes, and in countless nights, he dreamt of her.
And now, he felt alive again, for she reappeared in his life, in his reach.
On the same night, the crew's dinner was not over yet, some female actors had left early, including Angel.
Only a group of older men remained at the dinner. The director, prop team, and photographers were still drinking and chatting... The production team felt immense pressure as the sudden change in roles led to the previous shoots being scrapped.
"Can this Summer really handle it?" someone drunkenly questioned, "What if she can't pull off the role of Riverflow and we have to change again."
"In this day and age, it's all about connections, we're just workers."
"Anything goes as long as Mr. Marsh says so."
"Sigh..."
They clinked their glasses together but couldn't shake off the frustration.
At this moment, the light was still on in Summer's study. She was studying the script, practicing her lines in front of the mirror repeatedly, with great dedication and hard work.
In the well-lit Marsh Group, Ivan was still in his office. He had a busy day, attending seven meetings.
"Mr. Marsh," a subordinate entered and handed him a document, reporting,
"The production team of 'Noodle Couple,' apart from the director, is all good, with clean backgrounds and no wrongdoing. But this director is rumored to have been involved with multiple actresses, despite being very competent professionally, his personal life is chaotic with questionable morals."
"Then replace him," Ivan ordered immediately, looking up at him, "Contact the new director now, get the contract signed, and replace him right away."
"Yes sir," the subordinate respectfully saluted before leaving.
A big-budget production like this, from actors to the production team, cannot afford any mistakes. We cannot risk the entire show due to the director's indiscretions.
