Chapter 38

"What are you so nervous about?"

After hearing this, Joyno was terribly startled and quickly distanced herself.

Joyno immediately turned serious. "Aze, this isn't a joke you can make."

"You could sing with me on stage. How come you can't hold up now?"

Right after he said this, Luo Yize slowly moved closer to her again. As his lips inched closer to her face, suddenly they heard his assistant calling his name from behind.

Luo Yize quickly turned around and kept a certain distance from Joyno. "Have you parked the car?"

The assistant nodded.

Thankfully, Luo Yize's assistant didn't see what had just happened. Otherwise...

Joyno's expression immediately relaxed.

This was a unique Hong - Kong style tea restaurant.

There weren't many dishes for lunch, and Joyno didn't seem interested in any of them. Only the bowl of chicken drumstick cup noodles caught her fancy and she ate it with relish.

Hong - Kong cuisine is different from Cantonese cuisine. Cantonese cuisine is one of the eight major cuisines in China, while Hong - Kong cuisine adds some Western flavors on the basis of Cantonese cuisine. No wonder their Coke chicken wings were so delicious, and their chicken chops and barbecued pork had distinct Western characteristics.

After lunch, Joyno put down her chopsticks and was about to get up when Luo Yize took out a tissue from his pocket and handed it to her.

Sure enough, as an idol, he took good care of his fans.

Then he took Joyno to a nearby beverage store and asked, "What would you like?"

"Whatever!" As soon as she said this, Joyno felt that she had been disrespectful. How could she talk to her idol like that?

Then she quickly added, "How about I buy you a drink too?"

Before she could finish, Luo Yize had already stepped into the beverage store.

On the menu were all kinds of drinks.

These drinks were pre - mixed. Joyno stared at them and didn't find the one she liked. So she nudged Luo Yize, indicating that they should leave.

"Then let's go to my company and stay for a while."

They left the restaurant and went straight to the company. Once there, Luo Yize arranged for Joyno to be in an empty office.

When Joyno sat down, she felt a bit tired. She took out a packet of instant coffee from her purse and was about to open it.

Luo Yize sat down, picked up the coffee packet in Joyno's hand and tore it open. "Let me do it."

He casually threw the coffee wrapper away. Then he put the coffee powder evenly into the kettle and told his assistant to brew the coffee.

The gurgling sound of boiling water faintly came through the door.

Luo Yize asked indifferently, "Are you tired today? You must have the habit of taking a noon break after lunch, right?"

Joyno nodded. Even though she was tired, she felt it was a fulfilling tiredness.

He casually put his arm around her shoulder and let her slowly lean towards his body.

Joyno stared sharply at Luo Yize. "What are you doing?"

Luo Yize curved his lips into a smile. He held her chin with one hand and whispered, "If you're tired, close your eyes and take a rest."

Suddenly his finger moved, and Joyno immediately reacted like lightning. But his face had already slowly moved closer. His movements seemed very skillful, just like when he was acting in a play. He gave Joyno a deep kiss.

She felt as if she had been anesthetized and had no feeling at all. When Luo Yize lifted his head, Joyno realized that thankfully they had both eaten a mint candy while taking a break after lunch in the restaurant. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

The first kiss with her idol was like the brewing coffee, exuding a charming fragrance.

This fragrance slowly filled all of Joyno's consciousness.

Just as Luo Yize was about to gently lay Joyno's head on his chest, they suddenly heard a knock on the door. They then subconsciously separated.

The assistant opened the door and came in, carrying a cup of coffee. He placed it in front of Joyno.

"Sister Nuo, your coffee is ready."

At this moment, how could she dare to drink coffee?

Then the assistant gave Luo Yize a printed form. Joyno glanced at the form. Yes, it was Luo Yize's work schedule for the next two days.

Presumably, Luo Yize was going to take on a new TV drama or movie.

Joyno asked curiously, "Are you taking on a new show?"

Luo Yize nodded with a smile. "Yes. I'm going for an audition tomorrow."

"What's the theme of the show?"

"A youth idol drama."

"Are you still the lead male?"

"Yes."

Joyno looked at the work schedule and found the name of the drama - "One and a Half First Loves".

Below was a line of basic information about the drama. She saw her name in the column of the screenwriter, along with another screenwriter's name. Only then did she realize that this was a continuation project she had taken on before.

To be honest, Joyno had written too many such dramas. Just like the scripts she had written before, they were as unethical and brainless as they could be.

Not only General Manager Zhao, but also many producers, investors and other relevant industry insiders had told her that this kind of clichéd plot had been all over the place ten or twenty years ago.

But this kind of drama was very popular among young girls nowadays. In the first half, the girl chased the boy. In the middle, a third - party got involved and there were all kinds of old - fashioned elements commonly seen in idol dramas. Gradually, it turned into the boy chasing the girl.

Joyno had mastered this kind of plot. If she were to look at it from a bystander's perspective now, she would definitely criticize this kind of drama and even scold the screenwriter.

The only thing was that this drama was a bit inspirational. At first, the female lead was a simple and cute girl. In order to get into the same medical university as the male lead, she worked hard. Finally, she got into Yunshan Hospital as she wished and gradually became a world - famous cardiothoracic surgeon.

The part that Joyno was responsible for was exactly the climax part, mainly about the emotional plot. And the other screenwriter happened to be from a medical university and worked in a hospital. He was very familiar with the professional knowledge and the working environment in the hospital.

Every industry has its own advantages. Joyno used to be an entertainment journalist. If she were to write, she would write about things in the entertainment industry or the journalism circle.

"We're having an open audition. Do you want to come and watch tomorrow?"

Thinking of this, Joyno still stubbornly shook her head. "Forget it."

If she went, she definitely couldn't bear the kind of pressure that felt like falling from a great height.

"It's okay. The producer of this drama is General Manager Zhao, and the director is Director Li who I worked with on 'The School Chess King'. Anyway, they're all familiar people. It's fine."
