When Wen Nuan heard Li Yu’s question, she felt somewhat embarrassed and chose to remain silent.
Li Yu raised an eyebrow and asked, “Why aren’t you saying anything?”
Wen Nuan suddenly became more earnest and looked at Li Yu, saying, “Despite your irritating way of talking, 1 can tell that you genuinely care for Ling’er. I don’t want her to miss out on someone who truly loves her. Moreover, Ling’er’s behavior towards you is different from how she interacts with other men.”
Li Yu, still with a hint of doubt, asked, “Is that so?”
Despite his skeptical tone, Li Yu’s heart was bursting with joy.
Seeing Li Yu’s hesitation, Wen Nuan nodded seriously.
Wen Nuan said, “There’s no need to doubt it. Ling’er is surrounded by capable men, but she doesn’t casually flirt with guys just for her own benefit.”
Li Yu concurred, saying, “You’re absolutely right. I completely agree.”

Wen Nuan had a piece of fruit and hesitated for a moment before whispering, “Have you two done it?”
Wen Nuan felt very awkward after she asked.
Li Yu was speechless.
Li Yu was even more embarrassed. Why didn’t this girl have any filter when she talked?!
Wen Nuan saw Li Yan’s awkward expression and thought that she had guessed correctly.
Wen Nuan said, “1 can’t believe it! You guys are moving so quickly. Just make sure to use contraception, alright?”
Li Yu was rather flabbergasted by her audacity. Wasn’t she going a bit too far with her imagination?
Wen Nuan felt uncomfortable being stared at by Li Yu.
Wen Nuan furrowed her brow and said, “Why are you looking at me like that? I’m just giving you a friendly reminder. Don’t go too far. Ling’er isn’t of age yet, and if she gets pregnant out of wedlock, it will certainly tarnish her reputation.”
Li Yu was at a loss for words; it seemed like Wen Nuan was thinking way too far ahead.
Li Yu awkwardly asked, “Have you talked to Ling’er about these things?”
A girl talking to a guy like this was quite bold!
Wen Nuan also felt awkward and rolled her eyes at Li Yu.
Wen Nuan said, “Do you think I wanted to say this to you? 1 have my dignity too. But if I told Ling’er directly, she’d probably smack me. So, 1 had to tell you. Just don’t go overboard, alright?”
Li Yu remained silent.
Wen Nuan sighed softly and said, “Ling’er is quite busy these days. Besides going to school, she’s also working as an extra on set, occasionally taking on minor roles. She’s even working as an assistant to the action director for a martial arts drama.”
Li Yu was puzzled, “Ling’er is an assistant to the action director? What’s the director’s name?”
Wen Nuan replied directly, “It’s the famous Li Dalong. He really admires Ling’er, and she’s been raving about how enjoyable the fight scenes are.”
Li Yu was surprised. He was aware of the renowned action director Li Dalong, but he hadn’t heard that he had an assistant.
Wen Nuan noticed Li Yu’s silence and said, “Actually, you’re quite patient. Ling’er is constantly on the move, and you’re pretty busy yourself. Even on Saturdays and Sundays, she goes to the set alone.”
Li Yu replied, “I just want to give her some personal space.”

Wen Nuan said, “Your explanation isn’t wrong; it’s good not to be overly possessive. By the way, 1 heard that Ling’er agreed to be the female lead in your new drama. When do you start? This way, she won’t have to run around as much. At most, she’ll be busy with her work at Chen Group other than your drama.”
Li Yu was taken by surprise, “You know about this too?”
Li Yu pondered for a moment and said, “The male lead hasn’t been chosen yet.”
The truth was, before getting Jiang Ling’er’s approval, Li Yu had been worried about the male lead casting. He wanted to help the girl he liked, but he also didn’t want her to get too close to other male actors.
However, once filming began, both the male and female leads would be heavily promoted together. The thought of Jiang Ling’er getting involved in promotional activities with other male actors made Li Yu quite conflicted.
Li Yu also understood that this kind of jealousy was unreasonable, but once it arose, he couldn’t control it.
“Have you never thought about becoming the male lead yourself?” Wen Nuan asked curiously.
Li Yu remained silent for a moment, then smiled and said, “I don’t have any acting talent!”
Jiang Ling’er returned to the living room with snacks and coffee.
Jiang Ling’er said, “It’s ready!”
Wen Nuan, seeing the exquisite snacks, exclaimed with excitement, “Ling’er, these look amazing! They also smell fantastic; they must taste delicious.. I’ll go ahead and try them!”
