Chapter 498: Chapter 386: Opponent’s Scenes
After finishing breakfast, Zhou Yun still hadn’t received the call sheet for today.
Looks like there won’t be any shooting today.
Zhou Yun was mentally prepared, so when the official notice came, she didn’t say much.
The coordinator who came to notify her personally, however, looked very apologetic.
"Yesterday, Sister Luo Qi told me there’s a script reading meeting scheduled for this morning, is it still happening?" Zhou Yun asked.
The coordinator hesitated for a moment, then mumbled, "I... didn’t get this notice, I’ll go ask right now."
"Forget it, don’t bother asking; everyone’s probably busy. You go do your thing," Zhou Yun said. "Just give me the call sheet when it’s out."
The coordinator smiled gratefully at Zhou Yun and said, "Thank you, Miss Zhou, for understanding."
...
It’s freezing cold outside in the dead of winter; no way to go out.
Zhou Yun spent the whole morning idly reading books in her hotel room.
Suddenly, Zhou Lan called her.
Zhou Yun thought Zhou Lan was calling to ask about the situation on set, but as soon as she answered the phone, Zhou Lan scolded her.
"Are you a pig? Eating that much in public!"
Zhou Yun was dumbfounded.
"What?"
Zhou Lan: "You were eating breakfast in the restaurant, someone filmed it and uploaded the video online, now netizens are discussing how could you eat so much!"
Zhou Yun: "Ah?"
"Just this morning, right? In such a public place, couldn’t you be more careful? You didn’t even know you were being filmed."
"No, how would I know I was being recorded with so many people around." Zhou Yun retorted, "What’s the situation anyway?"
Zhou Lan summed up succinctly: "Nothing much, just now, passersby are saying you eat more than a man, haters are saying you started to create a public persona as a glutton."
Zhou Yun got angry immediately, "How much I eat is none of their damn business."
"Don’t you know about the people online? They can pick bones out of an egg, every single thing you do can be nitpicked by them."
"Then why are you saying this to me? No matter what I do, they are going to find faults," Zhou Yun said.
"It’s not that, big sis, I watched the video, and you really can eat!" Zhou Lan said helplessly, "Even I’m embarrassed to say it’s normal appetite, not to mention for a female celebrity, who eats a bowl of noodles with a plate of barbecue, a serving of fruit, and a glass of milk for breakfast."
Zhou Yun: "...I’m gaining weight for a role, okay?"
"Yeah, many people are saying with your appetite, no wonder your face has gotten rounder recently," Zhou Lan said.
Zhou Yun rolled her eyes: "None of their damn business."
Same old response.
"This is such a headache, you shouldn’t dine in public places at times like this," Zhou Lan said. "You can’t hang a sign on your chest saying, ’Gaining weight for a role, do not disturb.’"
Zhou Yun’s eyes flickered, "I can’t hang a sign on my chest, but I can post that sentence on Weibo."
Zhou Lan: "..."
Zhou Lan fell silent for a few seconds, then said: "I guess it’s not a bad idea."
Zhou Yun: "Then I’m going to post on Weibo, really, these people have nothing better to do."
"People wouldn’t pay attention to these celebrity gossips if they weren’t bored," Zhou Lan said. "Relax, you’re a public figure, even a blister on your foot could draw attention."
Zhou Yun: "Then I might as well send them a pair of socks I’ve worn for seven days."
"..." Zhou Lan hesitated for a moment, asked, "You don’t actually have a pair of socks you’ve worn for seven days without changing, do you?"
"I’m going to spit blood on you," Zhou Yun rolled her eyes.
At noon, Zheng Xiaojue got the latest news and came to Zhou Yun with excitement.
"Sister Xiao Yun, the latest news, Feng Chaotian is confirmed not coming to act, he’s already showed up at the launch ceremony of ’Commission,’" Zheng Xiaojue turned on her phone, found a photo, and handed it to Zhou Yun, "Look, the one in the middle of the front row."
Zhou Yun saw Feng Chaotian in the photo, behind a circle of people, with a banner hanging: "Commission launch ceremony, may the ratings be as long as a rainbow!"
"Who’s replacing him, is it decided?" Zhou Yun asked.
Zheng Xiaojue shook her head, "Everyone is guessing, there’s no certain news, Sister Xiao Yun, who do you hope will replace him?"
Zhou Yun: "Me? I don’t have a say in it."
Zheng Xiaojue said, "But isn’t your opinion important? I’ve heard the coordinator say that they had to discuss with you before deciding."
"Nonsense, who’s spreading rumors." Zhou Yun shook her head, "It has nothing to do with me."
