Jing Mo ignored Xia Xin, his thoughts still lingering on the fact that she was going to film a kissing scene, and the co-star for that was none other than Mo Shu.
Xia Xin, oblivious to Jing Mo's unusual demeanor, continued, "Luckily, I asked the director if we could use a body double. The director was puzzled and asked why we'd need one when we're a real couple, which really startled me! I was worried our fake relationship would be exposed, but thankfully Mo Shu said he was recently infected with Helicobacter pylori and needed to avoid close contact. That's how the director let it go."
Relieved, Jing Mo picked up another piece of fish and continued eating.
After dinner, Xia Xin volunteered to wash the dishes. While she was in the kitchen, her phone on the dining table buzzed with a new text message.
Jing Mo casually glanced at it, initially intending to give it to Xia Xin. However, the content caught his eye.
