Chapter 277 - 277 A Romantic Surprise

277 A Romantic Surprise

It was a Wednesday, and Han Junlei seemed to have received some kind of order, so he did not arrange any scenes for Su Ji that day.

She had been quite busy recently, and there were no holidays for her.

Fortunately, the herbs that she was cultivating don’t grow in the winter, so there was one less thing to worry about.

On Wednesday, she didn’t have to get up early to go to the set. However, Su Ji remembered that she had plans with Pei Huai. She woke up at 8 o’clock and sent Pei Huai a message.

She fell asleep again after sending the message.

Pei Huai didn’t reply to her message. At 10 o’clock, he saw the curtain next door being pulled open and she was finally awake. He then replied, “let’s leave after breakfast. My car is at the usual spot.”

At 11 o’clock, Pei Huai picked her up and drove all the way to the outskirts of town.

When they arrived, it was already past noon. She first saw more than a dozen cars parked on the side of the road, s.h.i.+ning under the bright sun. It was quite spectacular. Then, she saw the film crew. Finally, she saw CEO w.a.n.g of the electric vehicle.

Su Ji turned to Pei Huai, “we’re shooting an advertis.e.m.e.nt today?”

Pei Huai could see the disappointment in her eyes, but he nodded.

CEO w.a.n.g rubbed his hands and walked over. “Ms. Su, there’s no hurry. We’re just preparing. An advertis.e.m.e.nt is easier to film than a movie. Today, we’ll just shoot a few driving scenes in a day and night setting.

As the spokesperson was Su Ji, CEO w.a.n.g came today.

Bill had finished shooting for the Xu Group and they recently entered the post-production stage.

Hence, they should also get to work. Su Ji got into work mode rather quickly and took the script from the director.

The filming crew knew about her relations.h.i.+p with Pei Huai and she was treated much better.

On the set of The Billion Stars, Han Junlei was the G.o.d while the director here had the lowest rank.

When the director first arrived, he was actually quite nervous. However, he soon realized that Su Ji was not pretentious or arrogant. She was very efficient in everything she did.

As long as he served her well, it would be easy to negotiate with CEO Pei.

Pei Huai opened a few lunchboxes and touched them to make sure they were warm, “eat while you read.”

It was time for lunch.

Su Ji glanced at him, “it’s obviously work, but you make it sound like a date. What if I don’t have time?”

Pei Huai chuckled, “then we’ll push the work back.”

Su Ji said, “you sound like an incapable ruler when you say that.”

Pei Huai pushed a large portion of meat in front of her and gave her the chopsticks, “if I was, you wouldn’t have to wait until now.”

He didn’t know why he said this, and Su Ji didn’t understand either.

However, she didn’t probe further. She noticed that Pei Xi wasn’t here today either. It seemed like Pei Huai was preparing to take over her manager’s job today.

Su Ji smiled. Being taken care of by him for a day was actually the same as going on a date.

After her hair and makeup were done in the afternoon, Su Ji was dressed in a tight suit. Her long hair hung down, her small face was very fair, and her facial features were exquisite. She looked especially cool.

CEO w.a.n.g and the director looked at each other and mouthed “oh”. However, before they said anything, they glanced at CEO Pei.

After checking the car, Su Ji sat in the driver’s seat, and Pei Huai sat in the front pa.s.senger seat.

Just as the director was about to get the crew to get ready, he suddenly stopped. After a few seconds of silence, he smiled and knocked on the window of the pa.s.senger seat.

“CEO Pei…we’re about to officially start shooting, are you…”

Pei Huai looked at him, “it’s dangerous to go up the mountain road. I need to sit in the car and watch over her.”

Su Ji remained silent, “…”

The director’s back was sweating, “but…you’ll be in the shot…”

Pei Huai said, “just photoshop me out later.”

“…”

That worked.

CEO w.a.n.g gave him a look and took him to the side. He lowered his voice and said, “just do it. Otherwise, if something happens to Ms. Su, will you be responsible?”

“Yes, yes,” the director agreed.

…

The special training that Pei Huai had given Su Ji some time ago was not in vain. Su Ji did not look like a newbie at all when she drove. She looked like a professional.

The car drifted at the corner. The wind blew her hair to the corner of her mouth, but she blew it away without a sound.

On camera, it looked as though it was part of the script.

It was even more alluring in slow motion.

The director paused for a few moments. Every frame could be used in the poster.

The daytime scene of the shoot went very smoothly. During dinner, Pei Huai ordered food for Su Ji and everyone in the crew.

He also told the director not to worry about the evening scene, and that everyone could take their time to eat and rest.

The director took a look at the time. They only started shooting at three in the afternoon, and they could rest after two hours. Could he stay on with such a great crew?

By the time they started filming the evening scene, it was already close to 8pm.

It was harder to shoot at night, but if it was done well, the scene of driving under the night sky would be very beautiful.

Su Ji did not look at her phone, and she did not know how much time had pa.s.sed. She felt like it had been three or four hours.

All the scenes requested by the director were completed.

Although it was a work day, Su Ji felt really comfortable. CEO w.a.n.g and the rest had never seen CEO Pei take care of someone before. Today was the first time they saw it. The entire crew had a smile on their faces the entire day as they followed the two of them.

The director had captured the scene he wanted and watched it repeatedly in front of the screen.

CEO w.a.n.g’s gaze s.h.i.+fted to Pei Huai.

A moment later, as if he had received some kind of order, he called out to Su Ji very naturally, “Ms. Su, there’s one last scene. We will call it a day after this scene!

Su Ji was very professional. She stopped yawning halfway and said, “sure, no problem.”

The last scene was shot at the top of the mountain, and Pei Huai drove her up.

The car went round and round along the mountain road. As they got closer and closer to the top of the mountain, the surroundings became quieter.

Su Ji didn’t need to drive, so she looked out of the window leisurely.

Pei Huai was not driving slowly, as if he was in a hurry.

Finally, the car stopped at an empty spot on the top of the mountain.

Nothing could block their view from this position, and the winter night was simply too beautiful.

It really felt like they were very close to the stars. The dark blue sky was clear, and there was no fog today.

It was more beautiful than the starry ceiling in Pei Huai’s car.

Seeing that Pei Huai was silent, Su Ji was in no hurry to get out of the car. She looked at the vast night sky in front of her. “I’ve never seen fireworks before. Have you?”

She had only recently seen fireworks on TikTok.

Pei Huai replied, “I saw it when I was young.”

Su Ji said, “let’s watch it together when we have the chance?”

Pei Huai raised an eyebrow. “You want to watch it with me?”

Su Ji didn’t say anything, which was an affirmation.

Pei Huai said, “then let’s watch it together.”

The moment he finished speaking…

“Boom…”

“Boom…”

Su Ji’s eyes twitched.

Cl.u.s.ters of light bloomed in her eyes.

Her eyes widened.

They were just in the right location to watch the fireworks.

Colorful fireworks shot into the sky with a loud bang.

The explosion turned the black night sky into a gorgeous sea of flowers. The ground was illuminated.

The sound of fireworks drowned out all other sounds, and it was midnight.

Su Ji’s phone was instantly flooded with a large number of new messages.

She subconsciously looked over and realized that today was the last day of December. It had just pa.s.sed midnight, so it was the new year.

Pei Huai turned off the camera in the car. Under the bright light of the fireworks, he said, “Su Ji, happy new year.”
