‘Crossing Me’ was broadcast on several platforms. Although it was still a vertical short drama, compared with Shutong’s previous Mary Sue rebirth revenge drama, this one showed significant improvement not only in terms of concept but also in other aspects. Coupled with increased investment, it received good reviews online during its broadcast and topped the trending searches several times during the finale. Its popularity was astonishing.
Meanwhile, short dramas of the same genre sprang up like mushrooms after rain. While the previously low-quality short videos weren’t completely replaced, the development of short dramas certainly captured a large share of the traffic.
With the involvement of capital, a new chapter for short dramas has begun.
Shutong had already attracted more than 20 million followers, but her Weibo account was still modestly verified as a photography enthusiast.
When Shutong signed the contract with the investment company, she showed it to Chu Fan, thus removing many unfavorable conditions. Now that Shutong was not bound by the company, she could explore more fields besides short dramas, such as movies, which she had always longed for.
Although there were countless new directors, Shutong was the one who was at the forefront.
Now she was no longer worried about not having any dramas to film; what she was worried about was how to produce high-quality works. Therefore, she had to be more cautious when choosing scripts.
Chu Fan had always been a strong supporter of her. He would forcefully intervene in her affairs, but…
He also knelt down very quickly and decisively, just like Chu’s father.
Shutong was always quickly appeased by him.
For example, today he came back from abroad and wanted to have dinner with her, but she received a call halfway there and had to go to a dinner party with several directors. After Chu Fan found out, he took it upon himself to call those directors to change the time and then lured her away from their private time together.
Shutong wasn’t angry, but she said a few more words to him, telling him not to take advantage of his connections to do whatever he wanted, or people would criticize him.
As a result, Chu Fan kept saying, ‘I was wrong, I will pay attention next time’, completely silencing Shutong.
As the weather grew colder, Shutong, having ended her time alone with Chu Fan, left the restaurant. Chu Fan held one of her hands, and when she tried to pull it back, he wouldn’t let her.
“Go drive, why are you still holding my hand?”
Chu Fan glanced down at their clasped hands and said, “I like it.”
Shutong: “…Whatever.”
After saying that, she couldn’t help but laugh and gently shake their hands. Their reflections were mirrored in the mirror next to them, and she glanced at them a few more times.
Ahhh, she thought that she was shipping them!!
Chu Fan sensed that she suddenly became awkward and shy. After getting into the car, he glanced at her face a few times and said, “Something’s not right with you.”
Shutong: “…Drive your car and don’t talk.”
Every time he spoke, he shattered her romantic fantasies.
Chu Fan: “…”
Along the way, Shutong kept filming videos with her phone and then quietly edited them. When she was almost home, she updated the videos on Weibo.
Chu Fan parked the car, and Shutong had already fallen asleep while holding her phone.
When the elevator doors opened, it was packed with people. Seven or eight young men and women, probably having just finished a dinner party, were still chatting in the elevator, reeking of alcohol and flushed.
They were about to leave when they saw Chu Fan holding Shutong in front of the door, and they were all stunned for a moment.
The elevator instantly went from noisy to completely silent.
Chu Fan glanced at the elevator buttons, then at the crowded elevator, and had to remind them, “This is the first floor.”
If they weren’t going to the underground parking garage, they should exit here.
Shutong was startled awake when she heard Chu Fan speak: “What’s wrong?”
Chu Fan lowered his head, his voice softening, “It’s alright, we’re almost back.”
Shutong realized that she was being held by him, yawned, and jumped off his arms.
“I fell asleep again… I’ve been too tired lately. You should have woken me up.”
Chu Fan: “I want to hold you.”
Shutong: “…”
Her gaze shifted, and when she saw the people in the elevator, her voice became even more choked up.
Meanwhile, the people on the other side belatedly realized what was happening and swarmed out of the elevator like a school of fish. Everyone’s eyes kept scanning the two of them, confirming that what they were seeing was actually the very popular Orange CP online!
“Ahhh, those are Chu Fan and Lou Shutong! I’m not seeing things, am I?! My favorite couple is actually standing right in front of me!”
“Damn, the class monitor didn’t mention this before! Lou Shutong lives here!”
“The class monitor was also dumbfounded. He probably didn’t even know it himself.”
