I Love Her Because She’s Dim-Witted And Filthy Rich - Chapter 58
In the end, Duan Bainian still didn’t get to have that meal with Su Miao.
The person who used to be incredibly clingy to her fled the film set as if escaping.
Even though it was expected, Duan Bainian still found it difficult to hide her sense of loss.
Over the next two days, no matter what she said, Su Miao remained completely unresponsive, focusing solely on reading her own script.
The staff from the reality show were urging Duan Bainian to start filming that night, telling her she needed to get to the location quickly.
She had no choice but to temporarily set things aside here and go to record the new episode of the reality show.
Suddenly free from Duan Bainian’s pestering, Su Miao actually began to feel a sense of loss herself. She stared blankly at her script, unable to process a single word.
An Qiu tried to persuade her, “I think Duan Bainian is being quite sincere this time. She’s been sticking her warm face against your cold backside without a single word of complaint, and she’s been smiling so gently the whole time.”
Su Miao whispered, “You don’t understand.”
An Qiu asked curiously, “How do I not understand? I’m quite good at reading people. Last time, I felt she didn’t cherish you, so I advised you to break up. But this time, her changes are very obvious. If you give it a little more time, you can just take the opportunity to make up.”
Su Miao was skeptical of An Qiu’s judgment. “It seems your ability to read people isn’t that accurate.”
An Qiu was displeased. “How is it not accurate?”
Su Miao replied, “If you were good at reading people, would you have ended up being cheated on?”
An Qiu: “…” “If you’re going to be like this, we have nothing left to talk about.”
Su Miao stood up with her script. “I don’t have time to chat with you anyway; it’s my turn to film.”
An Qiu: “…”
When work finished that night, An Qiu returned to her room and took a phone call.
It was from a previous production crew. That TV drama was premiering in a couple of days, and the production team wanted her to interact more with her co-star to play up their “CP” (couple) chemistry and build up the atmosphere.
Su Miao obediently agreed. She logged onto Weibo and found that her CP partner had already posted and tagged her.
[Senior, hello. Can I ask you out for dinner tonight? @SuMiao]
Su Miao casually opened the comments; they were flooded with people tagging her and telling her to come out and agree to the date.
She then forwarded the post: [Junior, hello. I am very happy to share dinner with you. See you tonight~ @AnQingyun]
The interaction between the drama’s CP outside of the show made the fans go wild instantly.
The production team took the opportunity to buy trending searches, creating another wave of promotion.
Seeing the good results, the crew bought trending searches every day for the next few days, and the two of them practically lived on the trending list.
When Duan Bainian saw the trending searches, she silently exited Weibo.
How the tables have turned. Who would have thought there would come a day when she would be jealous of Su Miao playing up a “CP”?
Estimating that Su Miao had finished work, Duan Bainian took her assistant’s phone and called her.
Seeing an unknown number, Su Miao hesitated for a moment but answered anyway. “Hello?”
Duan Bainian spoke gently. “You’ve finished work, right?”
Recognizing it was Duan Bainian, Su Miao fell silent for a moment and didn’t speak.
Duan Bainian continued to speak softly. “Did filming go well today?”
Su Miao: “It was alright.”
Duan Bainian: “I saw you filming the other day; you were doing great. Many of the scenes were done in one take.”
Su Miao: “Mm.”
Duan Bainian: “I feel like you’ve made so much progress now. You’re much more capable than you were two years ago.”
Su Miao: “Mm.”
Duan Bainian: “I checked the weather and it says the temperature is going to drop tomorrow. Remember to wear an extra layer. Even though it’s summer, it’s easy to catch a cold.”
Su Miao: “Mm.”
Duan Bainian: “Let’s make up.”
Su Miao: “Mm. Huh? No… it’s impossible to make up.”
Duan Bainian laughed. “Finally able to say something other than ‘mm’?”
Su Miao: “…I’m hanging up.”
Duan Bainian stopped laughing and said seriously, “Su Miao, let’s make up.”
Su Miao didn’t say anything.
She felt that Duan Bainian really had something wrong with her.
Did she look that stupid? Just say “make up” and everything is fine?
Was all the pain she felt before for nothing?
But on second thought, it didn’t seem like Duan Bainian was the stupid one.
So, it wasn’t that Duan Bainian was stupid, but that in Duan Bainian’s eyes, she was the stupid one? The kind of stupid person who could be won over with just a little coaxing?
Thinking of this, Su Miao suddenly became extremely angry. She blurted out, “In your dreams! I will never make up with you! Not in this lifetime!”
Listening to the line go dead on the other end, Duan Bainian let out a long sigh.
Why was this path a dead end no matter how she walked it?
After tossing and turning until the middle of the night, Duan Bainian decided to try a different path.
