Chapter 122
===================
Compared to the city, the mornings in the countryside are always less noisy and more peaceful.
That day, Tang Xue opened her eyes as usual, driven by her biological clock. The first thing she saw was Lin Xiaoxiao's sleeping face.
With a slight upturn of her lips and a gentle smile in her eyes, Tang Xue pulled the blanket up for Lin Xiaoxiao and carefully pulled her closer to her.
Tang Xue placed a gentle kiss on Lin Xiaoxiao's forehead and let out a satisfied sigh.
Based on her usual awake time, Tang Xue estimated the time and wanted to hold Lin Xiaoxiao and sleep a little longer, but she also knew that it was getting late.
Although there wasn't a clear division of labor among them, Tang Xue, being the one who could cook, really couldn't allow herself to continue sleeping.
Although Li Siyao, who can cook, has now arrived, Tang Xue can't just hand over the cooking to someone else.
If it were someone else, Tang Xue would naturally give them more consideration and a chance to perform.
But since this person was Li Siyao, someone who didn't need exposure, Tang Xue couldn't bring herself to stay in bed any longer.
With such a beautiful woman in her arms, yet having to give up such bliss and get up, Tang Xue felt that this was truly a huge test for her.
No wonder there was an old saying that emperors did not hold court in the morning. Tang Xue felt that she finally had a deeper understanding of this saying.
With a sigh, Tang Xue knew she couldn't stay in bed any longer. Looking at the person in her arms with some regret, not wanting to wake Lin Xiaoxiao, Tang Xue only gave Lin Xiaoxiao a kiss on the corner of her lips before reluctantly getting up.
When Tang Xue finished getting ready and went to the kitchen to make breakfast, she found that someone was already there.
"Sister Li."
"Good morning." Li Siyao smiled at Tang Xue when she saw her.
"Did you sleep well last night?" Tang Xue quickly suppressed her surprise.
"It's great." Although her initial purpose in coming to this place was to get to know Tang Xue and Lin Xin, she was drawn to it after arriving.
Li Siyao is a person who particularly likes quiet. For creative people like her, she prefers this kind of quiet environment.
"Don't hesitate to ask if you need any help." Tang Xue didn't know what else to say, so she could only express her care for the newcomer.
"good."
Li Siyao responded, her attitude remaining gentle, her aura soft and serene.
Tang Xue nodded and didn't say anything more. Although Li Siyao was a very gentle person, she didn't really know her and they didn't have much to talk about.
After a brief chat, Tang Xue started helping with the cooking.
Tang Xue didn't speak again, and neither did Li Siyao, but her gaze would occasionally drift to Tang Xue as she observed her.
Li Siyao didn't try to hide her gaze, and Tang Xue naturally noticed it as well. Although as an artist, she was used to being stared at.
However, Li Siyao's gaze still made Tang Xue somewhat uncomfortable.
Of course, the discomfort here is not dislike, but tension, just like being the teacher's focus in class when you were a child, which always makes you very nervous and uncomfortable.
Tang Xue placed the chopped vegetables on a plate, hesitated for a moment, but couldn't resist turning to look at Li Siyao, "Sister Li, is there something you want to tell me?"
"Hmm." Li Siyao didn't deny it. "What type of role are you best at?"
Although a good actor should be able to adapt to all types of roles, she didn't know Tang Xue, so she didn't know how Tang Xue viewed this matter, whether she would be content with the status quo or dare to try.
When Li Siyao saw the two people on the screen, she had the idea of getting to know them.
However, she did not search online for anything related to the two of them. In Li Siyao's opinion, things on the internet are a mix of truth and falsehood, and many things cannot be taken seriously.
She didn't want things on the internet to influence her judgment; what she needed was to see it with her own eyes.
Tang Xue was taken aback. Although she found Li Siyao's question a little strange, she still thought about it seriously.
To be honest, her collaboration with Li Zhen was her first real acting role.
As for her preferred style, to be honest, Tang Xue herself is not sure. But in Tang Xue's opinion, a good actor, an actor who has high standards for himself, should not confine himself to a particular role.
She should be versatile and adaptable to any role, because from the moment she picks up the script, she becomes the character itself, and no longer an actor.
"Sister Li, I'm not sure what style or role suits me best. Although I've been in this industry for a long time, I've only been really involved in acting for a short time."
She entered the industry after graduating from university. Although she had played some roles while in school, those roles were relatively simple, and at most she gained some experience.
Regardless, even though she was the top student in her major at that time, she was not well-known and had little fame, so the scripts she received were not particularly outstanding.
"You mean you don't know what style suits you?" Li Siyao put down the dishes in her hand and turned to look at Tang Xue.
She hadn't looked up any information about Tang Xue, so naturally she didn't know anything about Tang Xue's acting experience.
She didn't even know how good Tang Xue's acting skills were. The first time she saw Tang Xue, she felt that this person was a perfect match for the character she was writing.
At that time, Shen Mo had just left Tianyuan Life, so Li Siyao contacted Tianyuan Life without hesitation and expressed her desire to join.
As for Tang Xue's acting experience and skills, Li Siyao knew nothing about them. She was simply attracted and appeared here without even thinking.
But now, chatting with Tang Xue has made Li Siyao discover a problem she had previously overlooked: she feels that Tang Xue is a perfect fit for the character she created.
However, she had no idea whether Tang Xue was capable of fulfilling this role.
But as soon as the thought crossed her mind, Li Siyao put it out of her mind. You wouldn't guess it from her appearance, but in fact, Li Siyao is a very bold and adventurous person.
She believes that as long as the actor matches the role, the actor can bring out 100% of their strengths. In that case, even if the actor has some minor flaws in their acting, it is acceptable.
After all, finding an actor who fits the role is not an easy task, and sometimes, some conditions can be relaxed a little.
“It’s not like that.” Tang Xue shook her head. “I think that as an actor, you have to keep learning and constantly enriching yourself.”
Instead of limiting oneself to a particular role or style, one should try different styles and different roles.
Although she hasn't reached that level yet, Tang Xue believes that as long as she doesn't give up and works hard enough, one day she will be able to stand in the position she wants to stand in.
Li Siyao's eyes lit up, and her smile became even gentler. Tang Xue's words had hit the nail on the head.
Just like herself, as a creator, she naturally wants to create works that can amaze everyone.
In the creative process, she cannot be confined to just one style, but wants to try different styles.
Instead of being dissatisfied with the status quo, they want to constantly strive to improve themselves, which is exactly the kind of person Li Siyao admires most.
"You're right." Li Siyao nodded, agreeing with Tang Xue's words. After that, the two of them didn't say anything more and busied themselves preparing breakfast.
After they finished preparing breakfast, the others gradually appeared in the living room.
"Xiao Tang, screenwriter Li, thank you for your hard work." The speaker was Lin Xin, although Li Siyao told her to address Chen Xingyu as Siyao.
But Lin Xin wasn't someone who didn't know her place, so naturally she wouldn't actually address the other person that way.
Just like now, others still call her "Actress Lin" and Chen Xingyu "Teacher Chen".
This is the most basic respect one can show to others; at least for now, their relationship isn't close enough for them to call each other by name.
"Good morning."
After exchanging greetings, the group went into the kitchen to help bring out the food, and then sat down at the table.
Lin Xiaoxiao nudged Tang Xue's arm and whispered, "Why didn't you wake me up this morning?" Perhaps it was because she lived with Tang Xue, but she had been sleeping exceptionally well these past two days.
Every time I wake up, I find that the seat next to me is empty.
"There's nothing much to do this morning, so I wanted you to sleep in a little longer." Tang Xue carefully removed the fish bones and put the fish meat into Lin Xiaoxiao's bowl.
Lin Xiaoxiao pursed her lips. She knew Tang Xue was worried about her, but she also felt sorry for Tang Xue. If she hadn't been injured, she could have helped Tang Xue cook.
Seeing Lin Xiaoxiao staring blankly at her chopsticks, Tang Xue sighed softly, moved closer to Lin Xiaoxiao, and whispered, "This morning, screenwriter Li made breakfast for me."
Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at Li Siyao subconsciously before lowering her head to eat the fish in her bowl. She turned to look at Tang Xue and whispered, "What do you think screenwriter Li is thinking?"
Humans are naturally curious, and Lin Xiaoxiao was no exception.
Tang Xue didn't say anything, but put a piece of vegetable on Lin Xiaoxiao's plate. She had no idea what Li Siyao was up to.
Thinking about her conversation with Li Siyao this morning, Tang Xue felt quite bewildered.
She subconsciously recalled what Lin Xiaoxiao had said last night, but quickly dismissed the idea. All she had ever done was act in one drama, and that was one that hadn't even aired yet.
She's not like Lin Xin, who's already famous. Right now, she can be said to have nothing. Even if she has a little bit of fame, people haven't seen her dramas, so they have no idea how good her acting is.
Li Siyao was famous, but she didn't think she had anything about herself that was worth this big shot's attention.

Chapter 123
===================
[Haha, just between us, I think this is really adorable about them. I hope they can be just as open and friendly with us when we're talking about other topics.]
[That's probably just wishful thinking; I'll likely never encounter a situation where I'm that informal.]
[Speaking of which, the chat between screenwriter Li and Ms. Tang Xue is hard not to speculate about. Do you think screenwriter Li wants Ms. Tang Xue to act in her script?]
[You're overthinking it. Who do you think Tang Xue is? If screenwriter Li wants to cast actors, he'd definitely be looking for someone like Lin Yinghou. Tang Xue? Ha!]
[...Please don't be sarcastic. I'm just expressing my opinion. You can disagree, but please don't be sarcastic.]
[To be honest, I just don't understand why some people can't speak properly. It's like they can't speak without being sarcastic or sarcastic.]
Because of this one sentence, a new round of arguments started in the live chat.
