No matter what.
Since she was invited, out of politeness, Lin Yanyu still wouldn't refuse.
Although she felt that Sun Wenwen and her husband were deliberately showing off their affection in front of her, since they were all in the same crew, Lin Yanyu didn't want to strain relationships with everyone.
"Let's go." Lin Yanyu stood up and patted the sand off her backside.
"It's better to go, otherwise Sun Wenwen will say you're putting on airs again," Chen Jiao nodded.
"Alas... as Su Su said, sometimes being too outstanding is also a mistake." Lin Yanyu imitated Su Yu, shaking her head and sighing.
"When you say this, I think of Listening Rain Teacher's 'slightly knowledgeable' and 'know a little'." Chen Jiao laughed and also imitated Su Yu.
"And also, if the competition is not for the championship, what's the difference between that and being a salted fish?" Lin Yanyu perfectly replicated Su Yu's tone.
"These classic quotes from Listening Rain Teacher have long been popular all over the internet," Chen Jiao said.
Whether it was Su Yu's early humble "slightly knowledgeable" and "know a little," or his arrogant quotes when participating in "Era Music King."
They all became memes for many people online along with his explosive popularity.
...
Not long after, Lin Yanyu and Chen Jiao arrived at the campsite by the bonfire.
Everyone was laughing and chatting, but as soon as they saw her, they became a lot more reserved.
"Yanyu, come and eat some fruit. My husband picked it from a friend's orchard and sent it over, it's very fresh." Sun Wenwen, upon seeing Lin Yanyu arrive, quickly and smilingly greeted her.
She leaned happily in the embrace of a man in a suit, acting as if she owned the place.
"Oh, thank you." Lin Yanyu found a spot by the bonfire and sat down. Various fruits were laid out on the picnic mat in front of her.
Your husband's friend's orchard is quite large. It not only has oranges from the south but also dates from the north, and even tropical coconuts.
Lin Yanyu grumbled inwardly, picked up an orange, and began to peel it.
"Sister Wen, you haven't finished yet. How did you and Mr. Zheng meet?" At this moment, a girl spoke up, breaking the awkward silence.
"We met when we were filming 'Youth Without Regrets.' He was the producer of the movie's theme song and came to the set for inspiration. Then he fell in love with me at first sight," Sun Wenwen said, leaning into her husband Zheng Chengjun's embrace with a face full of happiness.
"Nonsense, it was you who fell in love with me at first sight," Zheng Chengjun pinched her cheek and said playfully.
"Oh! It was you who fell in love with me at first sight, it was you!" Sun Wenwen acted coyly.
"As long as you're happy, I fell in love with you at first sight." Zheng Chengjun affectionately stroked her head.
Only then did Sun Wenwen smile contentedly.
She was over thirty, yet acted more like a girl than a teenager.
It gave Lin Yanyu and Chen Jiao goosebumps.
Lin Yanyu and Su Yu would sometimes act like that too, but she would always be mindful of the occasion. This Sun Wenwen truly lived up to being a top actress; her sense of conviction as an actress was really strong!
"Had enough dog food!"
"Sister Wen and your husband are truly in love, and you are a perfect match. Mr. Zheng is one of the few ace producers in the domestic entertainment industry."
"I'm so envious of Sister Wen's married life with your husband!"
"There are so few artists like Sister Wen who dare to announce their personal relationships. I really admire Sister Wen's bravery!"
The others fawned with envy.
Sun Wenwen, flattered, greeted everyone again to eat fruit before turning her gaze to Lin Yanyu.
"Speaking of perfect matches, none of us can compare to Yanyu. Her husband is the famous Listening Rain." She didn't know if it was genuine envy or pretense.
However, her tone was very sincere, but her sour gaze was impossible to hide.
"I can't refute this. My husband is indeed talented. However, I believe beauty is just the icing on the cake for women. We should focus more on improving our own abilities," Lin Yanyu said indifferently.
Sun Wenwen was taken aback. She hadn't expected Lin Yanyu to be so unapologetic, but she couldn't find a reason to retort.
Listening Rain was indeed talented, and Lin Yanyu's understanding of manners was also very positive.
"Since we're on the topic, Yanyu, can you tell us how you and Listening Rain met? We're all Yanyu CP fans. Can you give us some special treatment?" Sun Wenwen asked with a smile.
Chen Jiao on the side couldn't help but straighten her back.
Although everyone was acting politely, she could feel the tension in the air.
"There's not much to say, we met online." Lin Yanyu replied with a smile.
"Isn't the online dating story what you announced to the public? Is it really online dating?" Another female artist asked in surprise. After asking, she quickly lowered her head and shut her mouth, realizing she was too gossipy and had disrupted the silent confrontation between Sun Wenwen and Lin Yanyu.
"Since Yanyu doesn't want to talk about it, we won't force it." Sun Wenwen continued to take the lead, tilting her head to look at her husband, Zheng Chengjun. "However, you and your husband are the hottest couple right now. You're so affectionate in front of the cameras, you must be even more affectionate in private, right?"
"Of course, when my Su Yu is free, he likes to stick to me. I just don't know if we'll still have such good feelings when we reach your age." Lin Yanyu's lips curved slightly, her tone laced with envy for Sun Wenwen's marital bliss.
However, Sun Wenwen's expression changed. She could tell that Lin Yanyu's words, while seemingly envious of her and her husband's relationship, were actually subtly implying her age. For women, concern about age sometimes surpassed their concern for their appearance.
"So our Music God is that clingy. But after filming for so long, I don't recall seeing him visit the set?" Sun Wenwen counterattacked subtly, then slapped her forehead. "Look at me, Listening Rain, being the Music God, must be very busy and it's normal that he doesn't have time to visit."
"You're right. My Music God is good in every way, except for this one thing. He has endless work every day," Lin Yanyu said indifferently.
However, a slight ripple went through her. After a few exchanges, Lin Yanyu realized that this woman was a master of subtlety, and her own skills were no match for her.
But Lin Yanyu wasn't going to give up so easily. After all, her husband was Listening Rain, and just on that merit alone, she was invincible.
"Little girl, you'll be defeated in a few more rounds." Sun Wenwen looked triumphantly at Lin Yanyu, realizing she had grasped a key point: Su Yu hadn't visited the set.
The others watched the two of them spar, afraid of getting caught in this silent war, and dared not interject.
However.
At that moment.
An RV slowly drove over from the distant sand dunes.
At first, everyone thought it was a passing tourist. But that was until the RV stopped by their bonfire.
The moment the driver's door opened.
Everyone was stunned.
"Wife, I brought this thing over. You don't have to sleep in a tent tonight."
Su Yu patted the RV behind him and waved at Lin Yanyu with a smile.
