While Xia Wei was talking, Jian Tan turned around and looked at her. There was no emotion on his calm face.

After a long silence, he looked at Xia Wei and said softly, “Have you calmed down? Do you need me to explain it to you?”

Xia Wei took a deep breath and looked at him stubbornly.

“I wanted to tell you in advance, but you didn’t seem to want to talk to me for the past two days, so I didn’t tell you. This script is very good. It’s a role I haven’t taken on before. The overall filming period won’t be too long and won’t affect me. Don’t worry,” Jian Tan explained slowly as she looked straight into Xia Wei’s eyes.

Wu Fan had never seen Jian Tan have such patience and gentleness towards anyone else before.

Even though he was still in a bad mood because of what happened previously, he still answered every question of Xia Wei seriously.

“Just because of this?” Xia Wei was not appeased by Jian Tan’s reason. She paused for a moment before asking.

She naturally did not believe that Jian Tan had lowered his status to take on this drama just to enrich his acting experience. Jian Tan was not that simple.

As if he felt that Xia Wei’s question was a little humorous, Jian Tan smiled gently before replying gently, “What else do you think it’s because of?”

Of course, Xia Wei knew why Jian Tan did it. She was just very confused and did not know how to express herself. She glanced at Jian Tan’s deep eyes and said, “Jian Tan, you don’t have to do this. This matter is not worth you sacrificing so much…”

Jian Tan interrupted Xia Wei, which was rare, and said stiffly, “Only I have the right to judge if it’s worth it. I’m willing to do everything. There’s no sacrifice!”

Xia Wei choked on Jian Tan’s words. She frowned at him and her heart was in a mess.

“If you have nothing else to say, I’ll go out first.” It was not that Jian Tan did not see Xia Wei’s troubled expression. He took a deep breath and suppressed the gloom in his heart as he walked towards the entrance of the tent.

However, Xia Wei’s sudden words made him stop in his tracks.

“I’m sorry,” he heard Xia Wei say softly.

Xia Wei turned around and looked at Jian Tan. She pursed her lips and continued, “I’m sorry, Jian Tan. Can you not be angry with me?”

Her voice was soft, as if she was wheedling. For a moment, Jian Tan felt his ears soften and he could not move.

“Come here,” Jian Tan said gently.

Xia Wei did not understand why Jian Tan wanted her to go over. After looking at him, she slowly moved over.

When Jian Tan pulled her into her arms, Xia Wei’s scalp went numb and half of her body went limp!

“What do you want me to do, Xia Wei? I’m about to be tortured to death by you,” she heard Jian Tan say in a low voice.

Xia Wei’s tense nerves were lifted up by Jian Tan’s words. She did not know how to react.

“I’m not angry with you. I’m angry with myself. You said so many things the moment you came in, but none of them were what I wanted to hear. You’re usually so smart. Why don’t you know anything about relationships? Where did your intelligence go? Why didn’t you send me a message these two days? Is this your attitude of apologizing?”

Jian Tan hugged Xia Wei and muttered her faults, but his tone was filled with helplessness and pampering. He really seemed to be helpless against Xia Wei.

Xia Wei was caught off guard by Jian Tan’s sudden attack. She was so stunned that she only knew how to tense up and suppress her overly excited heart. She completely forgot to answer Jian Tan’s question.

Fortunately, Jian Tan did not have to hear Xia Wei’s answer. He just wanted Xia Wei not to resist him so much.

“Forget it. I’m already very satisfied that you took the initiative to talk to me. Who asked me to like you so much? You’re bullying me just because I like you!” After Jian Tan said this, he slowly let go of Xia Wei.

The expression on his face relaxed a lot. The gloominess from before seemed to have suddenly dissipated.

The faint fragrance on Jian Tan’s body retreated a little. Only then did Xia Wei find her breath and rationality.

She looked up at Jian Tan’s face and quickly looked away as if she had been electrocuted. She tried to hide it with her tongue tied. “Um… I’ll go out and talk to Teacher Ma Liang first.. Don’t be in a hurry to come out! I’ll continue talking to you when I come back later!”
