"Did you forget that we had to kiss each other when we'd first met? Chris, I'm disappointed." Tang Feng directed the conversation to a safe topic. To him, it was better to have a clear distinction between his private and public life. Even if he saw Gino as a friend, they weren't close enough to be discussing deep topics such as life and love.
At Tang Feng's prompting, a look of realization hit Gino. His eyes brightened and anticipation appeared on his face. "Ah, this is bad. I'm not ready to film this scene yet. When don't we attempt it now and try to get a feel for it. This way, we'll be able to pass easily when it comes to the actual take."
"I don't feel that way." Tang Feng rejected Gino's proposal. "The director said that we need to carry a sense of unfamiliarity and nervousness when we act out this scene. We need to be young and inexperienced, like an unripe green apple. If we practice, then we would be a red apple instead of a green one."
"Come, come, Tang." Gino wasn't willing to give up.
"No, I refuse." Tang Feng shook his head. He wasn't opposed to becoming closer to Gino, but anything outside of work was unnecessary. It was enough for him to be able to act with Gino in films. In their private lives, they could only be friends. He didn't want any of the troubles that came along with joking around intimately.
It was too commonplace for acting to turn into reality in the entertainment world. During the period of filming, the male and female lead of a movie could end up rolling around in the same bed despite having stable partners at home. It wasn't anything new in Hollywood. But when an actor placed too much importance on his private life, it could easily affect the rest of his acting career.
Gino was powerless in the face of Tang Feng's stubbornness. He finally raised his hands in defeat.
"You Chinese men are too old-fashioned!" Gino was a little indignant at his loss. "And here I thought I could get a kiss from you after making a meal for you. Tang Feng, you're hurting my heart."
"I'm not being old-fashioned. This is simply my personal value. All right, let's end it here today. You can get lost now and go act cute with your girlfriend."
"Is this jealousy I hear?" Gino's response made Tang Feng speechless.
He glared at Gino. "You're too in love with yourself."
While they were arguing, someone opened the door to the apartment. When they looked up, they saw a handsome but cold man standing by the door. Seeing Tang Feng and Gino arguing together on the couch, the man blinked. He asked, "Tang Feng, a guest?"
"I'm going over the script with Gino." Tang Feng frowned as Lu Tian Chen closed the door and walked inside. "Where did you go today?"
"I had something to take care of this morning. I didn't mention it as I didn't want to disturb you. Did you not notice the note that I'd left beside your bed?" Lu Tian Chen completely ignored Gino's presence. He was only focused on Tang Feng.
"Oh, I didn't see it." Gino had woken him up this morning. Then he'd gone back to sleep and woke up to the smell of food. He didn't look at the bedside table at all.
"Seems like I need to tape it to the bathroom mirror next time." Lu Tian Chen smiled somewhat gently. He walked over to Tang Feng and hugged him. In a rare move, he joked, "Did you miss me?"
"Yup, I miss having you here to take care of the food bill." Tang Feng smiled and hugged Lu Tian Chen back.
Lu Tian Chen replied, "That's not a problem." He then glanced at Gino, who was sitting with a complicated expression. Speaking like a master of the house, he asked, "Mr. Gino, you haven't had dinner yet, right? Would you like to eat with us?"
