The room Ange reserved was a deluxe standard room for two people. After receiving the room key from the front desk, they went to their room to store their luggage first.
Looking at Ange's gigantic suitcase, Xu Chuanchuan couldn't help but ask, "What did you bring?"
In response, Ange laid her suitcase on the floor, opened the zipper, and pulled out a rectangular box from inside. Then, she handed the box to Xu Chuanchuan, "A gift for you."
"A keyboard?" Xu Chuanchuan instantly recognized the familiar packaging.
Nodding, Ange said, "Weren't you fussing about how loud your keyboard was? Mine here is the opposite. Its keys are too soft to the touch, and it feels irritating when I'm typing on it."
When Xu Chuanchuan took a closer look at the brand and model on the box, she exclaid, "Isn't this the keyboard you showed before? The one that cost over two thousand."
"Mhm. I only used it a few tis after buying it. It was collecting dust in my house anyway, so I might as well give it to you."
Xu Chuanchuan felt her arms suddenly growing heavier when she realized she had received such an expensive present at their first eting. "I ca out in a hurry, so I didn't prepare any presents for you."
In response, Ange zipped her suitcase again and said, "I don't need any presents. Don't forget that you still need to treat to malatang."
"Do you really want to eat malatang?"
"Of course. We're going to eat it now. I'm starving to death already."
Hence, the two of them ended up ordering an extra-large set of malatang to be delivered to their hotel.
When the delivery arrived, Ange was still in the bathroom washing up. So, Xu Chuanchuan went downstairs by herself to pick up the delivery.
It was already close to noon by the ti Xu Chuanchuan returned to the room with the malatang. Then, looking at the big bowl of malatang in front of her, she suddenly said, "I just rembered it all of a sudden, but we also had malatang the first ti I treated her to a al."
In response, Ange, who had been wiping her face with a towel, said in frustration, "We've t up for less than an hour, yet this is already the second ti you've brought her up in front of . Are you honestly trying to trigger ?"
Xu Chuanchuan blushed when she heard Ange's words. Then, after calming down a little, she said, "I was just trying to say that my original intention was to treat you two to a big al. You really don't need to save money for ."
"We'll save the big al for dinner," Ange said. She was so hungry right now that she couldn't be bothered to be picky with her food. Then, she opened the lid of the big bowl of malatang, passed a small plastic bowl to Xu Chuanchuan, and said, "We'll take a nap first after eating. We should get rested before we visit the production crew."
As a tagalong, Xu Chuanchuan obediently listened to Ange's arrangent.
"Hold on a second," Ange said as she pulled out her phone. Then, she pointed the cara at the two of them and said, "Let's take a selfie and post it on Weibo."
"Should we censor it?" Xu Chuanchuan hesitantly asked.
The selfie was taken along with the sound of a "click." Then, Ange began editing the photo while saying, "Relax. I'll censor it."
A minute later, a new post appeared on Ange's Weibo: "I've finally t Tang'er @I Love Malatang after six years! We're having malatang for our first al together~ [Image]"
Afterward, Xu Chuanchuan also made a similar post on her Weibo.
When the drama for The End Of The World began filming, Ange's Weibo follower count had increased to tens of thousands under the film crew's promotion. As a result, shortly after she made the Weibo post, the comnt section under the post exploded with activity.
Heavens! You two are both authors that I like. I never thought you two would actually be close friends!
Lord, you're evil! Why did you censor the picture? Requesting original picture!
You two look so skinny, but I bet that the one with shorter hair is definitely @I Love Malatang.
I don't know why, but even though the image is censored, I still find the two of them to be quite matching.
How interesting. You two are eating malatang at your first eting. Lord, are you secretly hinting at sothing?
Get together! Get together!
After looking through so of the comnts, Xu Chuanchuan's mood beca very subtle. Then, she asked Ange, "Why do these people keep trying to force two won into becoming a couple?"
Ange had just been burned by a piping hot cauliflower, so she was in the midst of rapidly inhaling and exhaling. Then, she casually said, "Because most of them are lesbians. Do you expect them to fantasize about n?"
"I guess you're right. You should hurry up and explain. Otherwise, they're going to misunderstand."
Suddenly, a mischievous smile appeared on Ange's face as she said, "Let them misunderstand, then. Why should I explain?"
"But the two of us aren't in that kind of relationship..."
Hearing this, Ange sighed and said, "You really can't take a joke at all. Okay, okay, I'll explain it to them. But honestly, even if I don't explain, your 'straighter than a steel pipe' claim is still on your hopage. They aren't blind. They're just fooling around because they're bored."
Xu Chuanchuan chuckled a little.
Then, Ange frowned and continued, "But now that you're in a half-bent state, shouldn't you delete that post?"
Xu Chuanchuan: "..." At the ntion of this sensitive topic, Xu Chuanchuan chose to evade it by focusing on her food.
In no ti at all, the two of them finished the big bowl of malatang. Then, after chatting for a while, they went to sleep at around one o'clock. And at around three o'clock, they took a taxi to the film studio.
The afternoon sun was poisonous to soone like Ange, who rarely ever left her house. Sighing, she said, "I should've co at night instead."
Xu Chuanchuan tried her best to tilt the umbrella toward Ange's side. Then, she asked, "Are they filming at night as well?"
"I heard they'll be taking a night scene today. Ah, I can't take it anymore. I think I'm going to lt. Let's hide over there for a mont," Ange said as she dragged Xu Chuanchuan under a large parasol set up by the production crew. Afterward, she pulled out her phone and gave soone a call.
A short while later, a male staff mber wearing a vest ca running over and asked, "May I know which one of you is Miss Ange?"
"Hello, I'm Ange," Ange said as she shook hands with the man.
"So, you're the author! You're so beautiful and talented!"
"Thank you, but you're too polite."
Under the staff mber's lead, Xu Chuanchuan and Ange successfully t up with the production crew.
The crew was in the midst of filming an intense scene, so nobody took notice of their arrival. And even if they did, it wouldn't matter since neither of them was a celebrity.
The main reason Ange was visiting the production crew this ti was to understand the basic filming process of film and television drama. Fortunately, although Ange wasn't a celebrity, she received relatively good treatnt from the film crew as the author of this drama's story. For example, a staff mber had brought Ange and Xu Chuanchuan each a cup of milk tea.
When the production crew eventually took a break, Ange used the opportunity to ask the various crew mbers about their respective duties. anwhile, Xu Chuanchuan took on the responsibility of an attendant, taking many pictures of the film set while following Ange.
Partway through their tour of the film set, Ange dragged Xu Chuanchuan to a corner and quietly asked, "Weren't you planning to write about the entertainnt industry for your new novel? Don't you think it's more useful to see a film studio in person than reading about it through soone else's novel?"
"Mhm! I've gained a lot of experience today!" Xu Chuanchuan said as she gave Ange a big hug. "Thank you, Ange."
Then, Ange teasingly said, "Wouldn't that person be jealous if she sees you hugging like this?"
Blushing, Xu Chuanchuan said in a low voice, "She and I... We still haven't developed to that point yet."
Ange laughed at Xu Chuanchuan's words.
However, as many people were at the film set, the two of them dared not discuss such sensitive topics in depth.
Among the crew mbers, one young lady in charge of the props happened to be Ange's fan. She approached Ange with a physical copy of The End Of The World and asked for an autograph. She also ended up taking a photo together with Ange.
After taking the photo, Ange told the girl, "Rember not to share this photo with others. Even if you do, you must rember to censor it first."
In response, the girl giggled and said, "I know, I know. You authors always like to act mysterious."
Ange couldn't help but feel embarrassed at these words.
Afterward, the girl curiously looked at Xu Chuanchuan. Then, after a mont of hesitation, she asked, "Miss Ange, is this your girlfriend?"
Imdiately, Xu Chuanchuan said, "...No, no, we're just good friends."
anwhile, Ange smiled and said, "She is my friend. She is also an author."
Fortunately, the girl was a diehard fan of Ange, so she had no interest in Xu Chuanchuan's identity as an author at all. Instead, she departed happily with her signed book in hand.
Looking at Ange, Xu Chuanchuan sighed ruefully and said, "I really envy you sotis."
"What are you envious of?"
"You have both fa and fortune. You lack nothing at all."
"Who said so? I'm still missing a girlfriend," Ange said in a righteous tone. Then, she suddenly winked at Xu Chuanchuan and said, "Did you finally notice my excellence? It's not too late to regret now. Why don't you abandon that person and be with ?"
Turning her head away, Xu Chuanchuan faked a cough and said, "Stop ssing around..."
Ti passed by quickly as the two of them toured the film set.
When their stomachs started grumbling, they quickly left the film set before the production crew began distributing al boxes. As the two of them weren't familiar with the local environnt, they searched on DianPing for a long ti before settling for a grilled fish restaurant.
"Let's go. I'll treat you," Xu Chuanchuan said.
