Chapter 48: Familiar Acquaintance

After the assistant director left, Xia Xin glanced toward the audience seats, checking for Zhao Nan's presence before heading backstage with a sense of relief.

Due to the large crowd today, Xia Xin was concerned about Slowpoke's mood, so she brought Layle along to accompany it.

When Xia Xin found a moment to rest backstage, she realized that the backstage area was quite small. Xu Zhi and Wan Wan were getting their makeup done, with their manager explaining the script beside them. The backstage space felt quite crowded.

Xia Xin was wearing the zoo's staff uniform. On stage, she would wear a cap and mask, so there was no need for makeup.

It was August, and the weather was too hot. Only backstage had air conditioning, so Xia Xin took the opportunity to cool down for a while. When she grew a bit bored, Xia Xin closed her eyes to relax. Suddenly, she sensed a shadow before her.

Curious, Xia Xin wondered if her seating position was bothering someone in the dressing room, as she didn't expect anyone here to recognize her. Quickly, she opened her eyes and shifted slightly to the side. The person approached her again, and Xia Xin finally recognized him as Xu Zhi.

Curious, Xia Xin asked, “Is there something you need?”

Xu Zhi smiled at her, revealing a row of bright white teeth. His main selling point was his youthful appearance, and his smile truly matched the image of a young person that people had in mind.

Calling out to Xia Xin, Xu Zhi said, “Hello, Xia Xin.”

Indeed, Xia Xin was Xu Zhi's senior, but considering that he had barely been on campus due to being scouted by talent agents early on, she wondered how he could recognize her.

Seeing the puzzled look on Xia Xin's face, Xu Zhi looked a bit disappointed. He said, “It seems you've forgotten about me.”

Xia Xin still looked puzzled.

Xu Zhi explained, “At the beginning of the semester, you and Zhao Nan helped me move my luggage. Don't you remember?”

Xia Xin pondered carefully and indeed, there seemed to be such a thing. Back

then, she and Zhao Nan had helped a male student move his belongings at the

freshmen registration area. However, they had only helped him because he was very good-looking.

But Xia Xin didn't expect his luggage to be so heavy and numerous. The boys' dormitory was on the sixth floor with no elevator. They had run up and down three times before finishing. Her back and waist ached for a whole week afterward.

At that time, Xia Xin and Zhao Nan vowed never to judge people by their looks again. However, that determination was about as believable as saying, “I won't have midnight snacks anymore!”

It was such a coincidence that the idol Zhao Nan liked turned out to be the younger student they had helped.

But when Xia Xin thought about how Xu Zhi had caused their backs to hurt for a whole week, she found it hard to put on a good face.

Fortunately, the assistant director urged them to start filming, so Xia Xin didn't need to engage in small talk with Xu Zhi.

Before leaving, Xu Zhi even made a point to say, “Xia Xin, after recording the show tonight, please join me for dinner. You must wait for me!”

Xia Xin thought that she could enjoy a free meal and have Zhao Nan and her idol sit at the same table. That was indeed quite nice.

Since everyone was now out recording the show, the backstage was empty except for Xia Xin. So, she brought Layle and Slowpoke backstage to enjoy the air conditioning.

Amid this sweltering summer, only air conditioning could bring true happiness. Feeling comfortable, Xia Xin lay back on the sofa and drifted off to sleep again. Half-asleep and half-awake, she once again saw a shadow.

Xia Xin thought to herself, 'Why does Xu Zhi always seem to appear when I'm closing my eyes and resting?'

Unwillingly, Xia Xin opened her eyes and was met with the handsome and aloof face of Jing Mo

Xia Xin immediately woke up. She thought, 'Why hadn't the director informed her that Jing Mo would also be participating in this episode?

“You're also here to record the show?” Xia Xin felt that her question was quite silly. If Jing Mo wasn't here to record, he wouldn't be backstage. What was even stranger was that Xia Xin felt a bit nervous.

Xia Xin thought that it might be due to just waking up. She adjusted her mood, sat up, and made space for Jing Mo to sit.

As Jing Mo watched Layle and Slowpoke playing, he suddenly asked, “What should I do if my dog is a picky eater?”

“Ah?” Xia Xin realized he was talking about Bobo.

But when Xia Xin walked Bobo, it ate everything, even baked buns. She couldn't

help but wonder if Bobo was simply not interested in the food Jing Mo offered.

However, Xia Xin only considered it without daring to say it out loud. She said, “It might be throwing a tantrum. Huskies can be stubborn. You'll have to coax it.”

Jing Mo fell silent and thought, 'Maybe I should just let that rebellious boy go hungry for a couple of days.'
