It wasn’t until they entered that Jing Mo removed his hat and mask. Xia Xin breathed a sigh of relief and said, “No wonder you had the confidence to come to the cat café so openly. Turns out, you’ve reserved the whole place.”
Jing MO replied, “Being a public figure comes with certain constraints; I have to be cautious when I go out. Anyway, please tell me what happened yesterday.”
So, as Xia Xin played with the cats, she recounted briefly everything that had happened over the past couple of days.
Jing MO, hearing Xia Xin’s relaxed tone, knew the issue had been resolved. He said, “Next time you have a problem like this, just contact me. But also, you need to be careful not to bring random people home.”
Xia Xin playfully stuck her tongue out and said, “Got it. I’ve learned my lesson. I won’t help people indiscriminately in the future.”
Being at the cat café felt like Xia Xin was in her element; all the cats came close to her, surrounding her. Some even took naps in the cat beds beside her.
Even the staff was surprised and said, “Some of these cats are usually aloof and never approach people. It’s unusual for them to behave like this today.”
Xia Xin didn’t find them aloof; instead, she found each one of them well-behaved and incredibly cute. She spent the entire afternoon playing with the cats while Jing MO kept his distance and observed.
In the evening, Jing MO took Xia Xin out for dinner, and they weren’t going home until around 7 or 8 p.m. On their way back, Xia Xin asked Jing MO, “The cats are so adorable, why didn’t you play with them at all this afternoon?” “I’m allergic to cat furs,” said Jing Mo.
Panicking, Xia Xin checked herself for any cat fur, and as she did, she said, “If you’re allergic, why did you bring me to a cat café? What if you end up in the hospital? Sun Hu will definitely not spare me.”
Jing MO held Xia Xin’s arm, guiding her away from puddles on the road, and reassured her, “Don’t worry; my allergy isn’t severe.”
With a slightly apologetic tone, Xia Xin said, “But I was completely clueless this afternoon, and if I still can’t get into character tomorrow, won’t that mean I wasted your afternoon’s effort?”
Jing MO said, “Actually, I didn’t bring you here to teach you about cats; I brought you here to help you relax. You can only perform at your best when you’re in a relaxed state. Don’t overthink it. Just act based on your understanding of cats.”
After carefully reflecting on her afternoon of play, Xia Xin realized that she had indeed emptied her mind. She hadn’t been troubled by thoughts of acting, and she felt much more relaxed than before. She had probably placed too much pressure on herself.
Continuing, Jing MO suggested, “If you still can’t get into character quickly, I recommend staying at the hotel arranged by the production for a week. Watch the other actors on set; maybe it will help you rediscover what acting means.”
Xia Xin still had some reservations. She had been scolded by directors so many times that she had lost confidence in acting.
Jing MO placed his hand on Xia Xin’s shoulder, looked into her light brown eyes with his deep black ones, and said, “Xia Xin, I believe in you.”
Xia Xin felt a surge of motivation and the courage to give it her all once again.
When they arrived at the residential area, Xia Xin looked at Jing MO seriously and suddenly joked, “Jing MO, you’re such a caring big brother. Why haven’t you been in a relationship for so many years?”
Jing MO was stunned for a moment. His gaze suddenly shifted elsewhere and he did not answer the question.
Xia Xin didn’t ask further and said happily, “I finally got you. Yay, I won!” With that, Xia Xin happily went upstairs.
The next day, Xia Xin followed Jing Mo t s advice and booked a hotel room provided by the production. She spent almost every day at the film set. When she didn’t have scenes, she observed other actors, gradually regaining her acting senses.
One day, while Xia Xin was shooting a scene, the cat caretaker, responsible for looking after the cat, rushed onto the set. Anxiously, she said to Jia Bing, who was directing the scene, “Something bad happened; the cat escaped!”
Jia Bing was originally directing the scene but stopped everything. He was initially angry and scolded the person, “Do you know your voice will be recorded?”
Then Jia Bing quickly reacted and asked, “What did you just say? Say it again!”𝐛𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝗼𝐫𝗴
