Are you upset, he asked me. I immediately shook my head and said no. Then he took a sigh of relief and said, okay, then I make it very clear to you that you are not allowed to hurt my girlfriend. You have to take proper care of her. Don't you dare to ignore her health at any cost. Taking care of my girlfriend is totally your responsibility, and if you fail in that, then you better need to bear the consequences for that. So I hope you understand it very clearly, he said to me.
I was a little shocked after hearing all this from him, as it sounded like he was talking about someone else, not me. I am his girlfriend, but he sounded like I am the caretaker of his girlfriend. But what else could I say other than just nodding my head? Then after that, I closed the door of the car and went back to my dormitory, but I could feel that he didn't go back until I reached inside my dormitory. Only then did he start his car and go back from there.
Then this night passed like this, in a quiet chaos, misunderstandings, and a lot more things, but finally it passed. Then the freshness of the new morning touched my face, and I had already reached the set on time today. All the cast and crew members were running here and there preparing for the scenes to be shot. Then a voice came from behind asking me, how's your ankle now? I turned my face back and saw Ji Juan standing there right in front of me.
I smiled and said it's much better now, but not properly okay. Did you do a workout, he asked me. Yes, a little bit, about one hour daily, I said. So do you take proper calcium supplements or calcium and vitamins properly, he asked me. It was a new type of question for me; no one has ever asked me about it. Then I said no, I just eat my normal food, nothing special.
He took a deep sigh and said that's why your ankle got twisted very badly last night. What, I mean how is it related to it, I didn't get it, I said to him. I'll explain this to you. See, as you say that you do a workout daily for about one hour, right? Then for that, your body needs proper kinds of vitamins and especially calcium, which you are not taking. That's why your bones become weak and get twisted so easily, he said.
So, I asked him. So it means that in the future you need to be very careful, because if you fall, then your bone will break immediately and cause a fracture and much more than that. Are you trying to make me scared, I asked him. He laughed a little and said no, no, I am just making you aware. Health awareness never means scaring someone, and don't you ever read that precaution is better than cure? I am just implementing it for you.
I smiled and asked him, do you belong to some doctor's family background? He immediately shook his head and said no, of course not. Then how do you know this much, I asked him. He again laughed a little and said Miss Zhao, you are really very cute, I really can't help it, he said while smiling and laughing both.
I got a little confused by his behavior, then he said Miss Zhao, it doesn't need me to be from some doctor's background to know this. It's basic knowledge that everyone knows, especially those who do workouts as their daily routine, he said. But then how did I not know that, I said. He smiled and said because you are exceptional. Exceptional, I repeated again.
Then suddenly Director Li announced something through his mic and said we are going to Beijing tomorrow for shooting further scenes for the drama for a few days. Everyone be prepared accordingly and pack your stuff properly. It's going to be three days of shooting, so be prepared. And for today, we will wrap up the shoot early after shooting a few scenes. Everyone be on time tomorrow, so go back to your homes early today. At least from my side, you all are free today to go back home early.
Director Li's announcement made everyone happy around the set. Few were happy that they were going back home early today, few were happy that they were going to Beijing. Everyone was happy for their own reasons, but my happiness didn't arrive yet.
So finally you can visit my hometown. I'll take you to my home there, Ji Juan said to me. Oh right, how could I forget it? You told me yesterday that Beijing is your hometown, and see today we got this news, I said. He smiled and said it seems like nature wants me to take you to my hometown. Why only hometown, I'll go to your home also, I said. He smiled and said of course, why not, I am already thinking of taking you there.
I smiled back at him. Then he entered his calm posture. His appearance, everything, was enough to make me realize something. Then he came to me and said come with me, but what was that attitude? I am the one who is injured and upset, but why is he behaving like he is the one who is upset with me, like I did something wrong?
Then Ji Juan smiled again and said I think you should go, Miss Zhao. I am heading to my room to change my costume. See you in the scene. I smiled back at him, and after Ji Juan left from there, I immediately went to Yuan's room and opened the door of his makeup room. He was sitting on the chair in front of the mirror and looking at something on his phone. I entered the room very quietly, taking short steps. Then he said while looking at his phone, are you done with talking and chit-chatting?
I immediately nodded my head and said no. He exhaled sharply and said while standing up from his chair, came to me and held my arms a bit tightly and said then why do you like to do it, he asked while looking straight into my eyes. What, I asked him. Do you really not know it, he asked me. No, I don't, I said.
You want to make me feel jealous, right? Okay fine, I am a jealous person. I can't hold it back when someone else talks to my girlfriend or even touches her with their little finger. I get so jealous that I can burn this world, he said. I had never seen him in such rage ever, but I also didn't stay quiet today. I said then I also feel jealous when you are with other actresses. I know it's your work, but my heart doesn't understand it. It aches for you. I really cried when I saw you in that Spring Festival Gala night singing with that actress so passionately and seeing her through your eyes with so much passion, which was meant to be mine, but it wasn't.
So don't you dare to think that you are the only one who gets hurt. I am also the one. Just because I didn't say it doesn't mean I didn't feel it. I feel it, every bit of it, every second and minute of it. But I didn't get angry at you like this, the way you did just now to me. What I did was totally unintentional, but what you did was also unintentional. But at least you should inform me before leaving the set yesterday that you were going to perform with that actress. At least I could prepare myself for that, but no, you didn't. You just surprised me through videos of that event all over Weibo, I said while starting to cry.
Because I— he stopped midway. You what, Yuan, you what, I asked him. I didn't say anything because I know you don't have any intention to hurt me. I made myself understand it. But look at you, you can't handle your jealousy even a bit and burst into anger. Sorry, sorry. Let's accept that we both get jealous and promise each other that we will never make each other feel like this ever again intentionally, he said while pressing his head to my head, closing his eyes, and tears kept falling from his eyes. Then…
