The production team assigned dormitories to all the main actors. Although Li Beibei's scenes only lasted about a week, she still had a dormitory.
Two actors shared one dormitory; she and Yang Zhenzhen were in the same room.
Li Beibei lay on the small bed in the dormitory, her stomach rumbling from hunger.
However, the first scene in the afternoon was hers; she could not go out to look for food. So, she drank a large glass of water and fell asleep.
The shoot in the afternoon lasted until 6 p.m..
Li Beibei was so hungry that she was about to collapse.
After wrapping up for the day, she went to the canteen to take a look. As expected, there was another table full of food with coriander, and there was even a cold dish with coriander.
Li Beibei instantly lost her appetite.
Li Beibei immediately decided to go out and look for food.
She saw Yang Zhenzhen wrapping up for the day and asked her out. "Zhenzhen, let's go out for dinner."
Yang Zhenzhen waved her hand. "The director said that I'm a little fat on camera. I want to lose weight. Go by yourself."
Although they were in the suburbs, there was a college nearby. There was a food street near the college that was very close to the film set. Li Beibei went straight there.
She found a beef noodle eatery. But before she could step foot in it, she saw a familiar figure.
Even though that person was wearing a cap and a mask.
Li Beibei still recognized Yi Ziyao—in disguise.
She did not expect him to be here too.
Li Beibei hurriedly went in and stood in front of him with a smile. "Classmate, do you want to share a table?"
Yi Ziyao raised his head and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes. When he saw Li Beibei's smiling face, he reciprocated with a smile on his face. "Beibei, it's you."
Li Beibei sat down and took a look at the menu. "I didn't expect you to come out and get your own food too."
This was a college town. Although it was summer vacation, the school term was about to start. Many students had already returned to campus in advance.
Students filled the place.
No one knew who Li Beibei was, but Yi Ziyao was an A-list celebrity who was extremely popular. He had fans of all ages.
If he was discovered, he would be swarmed.
Yi Ziyao smiled faintly, revealing a pair of beautiful dimples. "I'm not a fan of coriander either."
Upon hearing this, Li Beibei seemed to have found her tribe. Initially, she only had a good impression of Yi Ziyao. But now, she felt a sense of closeness.
Li Beibei ordered a large bowl of beef noodles and emphasized to the lady boss not to add coriander.
Then, she turned to Yi Ziyao and complained, "How can there be such an evil thing as coriander in this world? If I had the ability, I would trample all the coriander fields in the world, destroy the seeds of coriander, and hire scientists to make coriander disappear from this world completely."
Yi Ziyao burst out laughing. "Then, you would offend everyone in the world who likes to eat coriander."
Li Beibei's gaze stopped on Yi Ziyao's dimples. She could not help but say, "Yi Ziyao, you look great when you smile."
The guy opposite her was stunned momentarily. A shy expression appeared on his face. "Thank you."
The beef noodles were served very quickly.
Unexpectedly, despite Li Beibei's repeated reminders, the lady boss still added a handful of coriander to her bowl of beef noodles.
However, Yi Ziyao's order did not have coriander.
Li Beibei protested loudly in great dissatisfaction, "Lady Boss, I said I don't want coriander."
The lady boss was puzzled. "Isn't your boyfriend the one who doesn't want it? You don't want it either?"
"He's not my boyfriend."
"You two don't know each other? I thought you were a couple. You just said to not add coriander for one bowl of beef noodles. I thought it was his."
Li Beibei was exasperated and was about to tell her to redo her order.
Yi Ziyao pushed his bowl of beef noodles in front of Li Beibei, then took the bowl of beef noodles with coriander. He said slowly, "I'll trade with you."
