Xia Xin listened and felt even more uncomfortable, remaining silent in the corner. She wanted to figure out how cats walked, but the more she thought about it, the more she couldn’t come up with an answer. Her mind was filled with the words of the crew members, accusing her of delaying everyone’s progress. She couldn’t help but contemplate giving up.

As Xia Xin was lost in thought, someone suddenly handed her a bottle of water. She looked up and was surprised to see it was MO Shu.

Xia Xin accepted the water and thanked MO Shu. He sat down on a portable chair beside her and asked, “Are you upset because the director scolded you?” Xia Xin nodded.

MO Shu leaned back in his chair, legs crossed. He gazed at the set where Gao Xin was filming and said, “Do you see how natural Gao Xin looks when she’s acting?

Xia Xin looked at Gao Xin, who was currently facing a stand-in actor with a green screen on his head. Her expressions were genuine as if she was truly acting with someone, even shedding tears while smiling.

Xia Xin couldn’t help but praise, “Gao Xin’s acting is really good, and she looks very natural. It’s a pleasure to watch her perform on set.”

“You only see her performing well now, but the first time she appeared on camera, she was just like you, very unnatural, and she was scolded by the director,” MO Shu explained.

Surprised, Xia Xin asked, “Even with such good acting skills, she was scolded by the director?”

MO Shu chuckled, “Everyone has a first time; how can you expect to perform well right from the start? My first time was even worse than yours, and I ended up trending on social media for all the wrong reasons.”

MO Shu’s tone was gentle, and his words managed to ease Xia Xin’s negative emotions. He had a pair of gentle and mesmerizing eyes. Even when he wasn’t smiling, there was a slight upward curve at the corners of his mouth. His face exuded warmth, making him look exceptionally tender. Standing at 1.88 meters tall, he had a near-perfect body proportion, with almost no flaws.

Xia Xin couldn’t help but blush as she recalled MO Shu’s shirtless scene earlier. This was probably what people referred to as looking thin in clothes and muscular when undressed.

Suddenly, MO Shu turned his head towards Xia Xin. Their eyes met unexpectedly, causing Xia Xin to feel nervous, as if she had been caught doing something she shouldn’t. She calmly averted her gaze.

MO Shu continued, “Just treat everyone like carrots and cabbages. Although there are many people on set, everyone is busy with their own tasks—some adjusting equipment, and some monitoring power sources. Not everyone has the time to scrutinize your performance. So, don’t pay attention to others’ opinions, and you’ll be able to act naturally.”

After giving Xia Xin this advice, MO Shu left. His scenes for the day were already finished, and now it was his private time.

MO Shu had a habit of leaving the set immediately after finishing his scenes. When he didn’t have any scenes, he was nowhere to be found on set. However, if he had scenes or there were last-minute additions, he always arrived on time. Therefore, the director didn’t place any additional demands on him.

Following MO Shu’s advice, Xia Xin adjusted her mindset. In the following shoots, although she didn’t perform perfectly without any retakes, she did make significant progress.

After filming, Jia Bing gave Xia Xin a day off to adjust her state and study how cats walk and move.

When Xia Xin left the film set, it was already dark. She checked her phone and saw numerous missed calls, all from Wu Jia, who had been asking when she would return home and how hungry she was.

Xia Xin wondered, ‘Wu Jia is not a child, why couldn’t she order takeout or go out to eat. If nothing else, there was food in the fridge. Did she really need to wait for me to come back before eating?’

Although Xia Xin had those thoughts, she quickly headed home.

Upon her return, Xia Xin was taken aback by the mess that greeted her. It looked like her place had been ransacked, with potato chip crumbs and wrappers scattered all over the sofa.

Seeing that scene, Xia Xin was astonished. She looked at Wu Jia, who was lazily lying in the middle of the potato chip crumbs, wearing the silk pajamas Xia Xin had just bought.

“What have you been doing at home all day?” Xia Xin asked. After a tiring day, she couldn’t help but sound a bit complaining..
