A week later, Song Xi's scenes were wrapped.
She was well-liked and received many flowers.
This was her first production in a true sense, and Song Xi felt a mix of emotion and reluctance.
Ye Tian looked at the flowers he had given, then at others, and sighed.
They were a bit small.
He seemed troubled lately, often sighing.
Song Xi asked, "What's wrong?"
Ye Tian propped his chin on his hand, saying he was fine, but his face was still full of worry.
Things at home hadn't been peaceful recently.
His sister-in-law had a miscarriage.
It was reportedly due to an argument with his eldest brother.
His second brother's state was also off lately, constantly looking at his phone.
Rumors were flying around in their circle.
He wanted to do something, but found himself powerless.
Ye Tian felt useless.
Now that Song Xi's filming was also finished, he wouldn't even have anyone to talk to on set.
It was over, he felt even more down.
"Sister, you have to come back and see me when you have time," he said, his eyes drooping like a puppy's.
Song Xi chuckled, "You're wrapping up next week too."
"But there's still a whole week!"
So clingy.
Song Xi placated him, "Okay, okay, send me a message when the time comes."
As they were talking, several white trucks rumbled onto the set with a grand display.
Everyone on set turned to look, seeing a pretty young girl stylishly wearing a hat.
She directed people to unfurl banners while scanning the crowd, finally landing her gaze on Song Xi.
She snapped her fingers, and the people behind her shouted in unison.
"Sunset, accompanying you always! Xi Xi, happy wrap!"
Song Xi: "..." Sunset.
Ye Tian: "...Wow!"
Ge Baitao ran up to her, beaming with pride, "How is it! Quite the entrance, right!"
She had almost made Song Xi die on the spot.
Song Xi, embarrassed, said, "Hurry and take it down!"
"What's wrong, isn't it good?" Ge Baitao scratched her head, "I thought about this slogan for a long time."
Song Xi: "..."
Ye Tian, on the other hand,'s eyes lit up, "How did I not think of that!"
Ge Baitao became instantly excited, "Right, right!"
Song Xi: "............"
Ge Baitao had come prepared today.
Not only had she prepared banners and slogans, but she had also ordered barbecue, milk tea, cake, and various other things.
Even people on set who had seen grand occasions were astonished by the display.
Everyone happily ate, praising Song Xi's friend for being so good and so supportive, even more impressive than the last one!
"The last one?" Ge Baitao, extremely possessive, caught the key phrase.
She interrogated Song Xi, "Xi Xi, who! You have other guys behind my back? No wonder you've been so distant to me lately, sob sob..."
Such a drama queen.
Song Xi was about to speak.
Ye Tian, gulping his milk tea, chimed in, "It was Anna!"
"Anna?" Ge Baitao frowned, "What was she doing here? Was it because of Zhang Qi or..."
Song Xi feigned ignorance, quietly shifting her gaze, "I don't know."
Ge Baitao huffed, "Did she have as grand an entrance as mine?"
Ye Tian: "No!"
"Was her milk tea as good as mine?"
"No!"
Ge Baitao was satisfied and looked at Ye Tian happily.
"You're Ye Tian, right? I'm Ge Baitao."
"I know you!"
The young lady of the Ge family, everyone in the circle knew her.
Ge Baitao was confused, "You haven't met me before."
Ye Tian, feeling guilty, said, "I... I heard about you from Sister Song Xi!"
Song Xi: What did I say?
"Sister... Song Xi?"
Ge Baitao exploded again, "You don't let me call you that, but you let him! Xi Xi, you're biased!"
Song Xi tried to explain, "No, he..."
"I'm angry!"
She turned her head, arms crossed, like a child.
Song Xi held her forehead.
After finishing his milk tea, Ye Tian started on the barbecue, his mouth never stopping.
With his cheeks puffed out, he mumbled, "Sister Taozi, don't be angry."
"Who are you calling 'Sister'! And who allowed you to call me 'Taozi'!"
Ye Tian thought she was genuinely angry and stopped chewing, startled.
"Taozi," Song Xi soothed her, then gestured for Ye Tian to continue eating.
Ye Tian resumed eating with gusto.
"Taozi."
Song Xi called out again, pinched her cheek, and praised, "Taozi is so cute."
Ge Baitao couldn't resist her teasing and her temper instantly softened.
"Xi Xi..."
Song Xi said, " 'Sister' and 'Xi Xi', doesn't 'Xi Xi' feel more intimate?"
Ge Baitao thought for a moment and nodded heavily, "It really does!"
Hearing this, Ye Tian became displeased, "Sister Song Xi!"
Ge Baitao hugged Song Xi and glared at Ye Tian like a possessive cat, baring her teeth, "Xi Xi is mine! If you try to take her, I'll bite you to death!"
Ye Tian pouted, threw down his skewer, and with a show of backbone, said, "I'm not eating anymore!"
Ge Baitao waved her hand, "Bring over the egg flower crystal cake!"
Ye Tian's eyes lit up.
Ge Baitao said to Song Xi, "Xi Xi, this has been really popular online lately. I specifically asked the chef to make it fresh. Try it."
Ye Tian stared at the crystal clear cake, his mouth watering uncontrollably.
Song Xi chuckled, reached out, and pinched Ge Baitao's nose, "Alright, let him eat it."
Ge Baitao huffed, looking at Ye Tian, "Want some?"
Ye Tian's eyes were practically glued to the cake, but he still said stubbornly, "Sister Song Xi... you can't have it."
So stubborn.
"Considering you usually take care of Xi Xi, I'll give it to you."
Ye Tian eagerly scooped a spoonful with his spoon and immediately wore a blissful expression.
Ge Baitao sneered, "You're both surnamed Ye, how can there be such a big difference."
