Chapter 456: He Isn't Good at This
Chapter 456: He Isn't Good at This
"Why does the cleaner give me this?" Lily whispers in puzzlement.
After a few seconds, she remembers that Louis is the only one who went shopping with her last night.
And she hasn't told anyone about the earrings.
'Then the earrings....'
Thinking about the cuts on Louis’ hand and looking at the daisy earrings with twisted petals, Lily is
moved.
It turns out that he didn't go shopping for slippers last night. He came back late because of the
earrings.
Looking into the mirror and lifting her hair, Lily puts on the earrings.
Touching the crooked white petals, she feels happy and smiles.
She can't have the earrings in the shop, but she has a pair of better-looking, 'hand-made' earrings.
Lily puts on loose clothes. Afraid that people will notice her baby bump, she also puts on a shawl. With
a good mood, she goes out of the homestay family to meet with other people.
"Ms. Lily." Seeing Lilly coming, Director Jarvis hands over some contracts to Lily, "We have signed the
confidentiality contracts sent by HS Company."
After what happened yesterday, Director Jarvis’ attitude towards Lily has changed a lot.
Glancing through the contracts, Lily puts them into her bag, "Alright! Everyone's here, which car do I
take?"
Director Jarvis says, "Ms. Lily, you are in the same car as Ms. Avery. By the way, Mr. Smith said that he
would drive."
'Louis is the driver?'
Lily thinks to herself, 'Does no one know how to drive? Why is Louis driving?'
She looks around, seeing that Louis opening the door of the van and sitting in the driver's seat.
"..."
Lily doesn't know what to say, so she walks over and gets in the car.
In the van, aside from Louis, the scriptwriter and the stylist are women. At first, they are a bit reserved,
and they don't dare to speak in front of Louis.
However, the man keeps quiet while driving, so the women begin to chat.
Ms. Avery, the scriptwriter, notices Lily's special earrings, so she stares at them, "Ms. Lily, you bought
them recently? They are pretty."
Lily smiles, "No. It's from a friend."
The stylist also looks at the earrings. She teases Lily, "They are made by Ms. Lily's friend, aren't they?
The petals of the little daisies are twisted. It seems that Ms. Lily's friend doesn't usually do this."
"He isn't good at this." Lily admits in a happy tone, "But I like it."
"I'm envious, Ms. Lily. You have a friend who makes you accessories. I don't have such a friend."
Seeing that Lily is in a good mood, Ms. Avery asks,
"Ms. Lily, are you talking about a male friend or a female friend?"
The stylist leans forward, "I also want to know. Most women are handy. They won't make such bad
work even at the first time. It seems that your earrings are made ... by a man!"
Lily's smile dies. She doesn't expect them to be so gossipy.
She glances at the man driving the car, coughing and changing the subject, "Did you change the
script? Let me take a look."
Ms. Avery stops gossiping, taking out the script and giving it to Lily.
Louis looks at Lily through the rearview mirror.
Lily is talking to the scriptwriter, with her head down. Her hair is put behind her ears, which reveals her
small earlobes and the small daisy earrings with crooked petals.
He feels a little helpless and embarrassed, remembering the scene of his looking for materials to make
them last night.
It's just a small pair of earrings. Louis didn't expect it to be so difficult to make.
He has watched the video for three hours and checked it several times. And the petals are still crooked.
However, instead of frowning at the rough work, Lily puts on the earrings. He finds that it's worth
several hours' effort.
An hour later, they arrive at the site.
It's a triple A-rated scenic spot of City L.
However, it's the low season, and Director Jarvis has told the person in charge that they will shoot a
video in it. Therefore, they will be the only ones in the scenic spot the next few days, and no tourists will
barge in.
After getting off the car, everyone is busy with the stage and the equipment.
Lily wants to lend a hand, but she's afraid that she will get in the way and hurt the baby. Therefore, she
takes out his phone to check emails.
She pretends to be busy.
After the stage is set up, the stylist calls Lily over for her look.
Ancient looks are more complicated. Besides make-up, the stylist has to do Lily's hair.
Lily has been sitting upright. After a while, her butt hurts, and she feels drowsy. So, she closes her
eyes.
Then, she hears the stylist saying beside her, "Mr. Smith, you've already changed your costume? Wait
a minute. It's almost done here."
"Take your time. I'm not in a hurry." Louis says in a low voice.
Lily loves his voice.
She opens her eyes. Through the mirror, she sees the man in a golden brocade robe with orchids and
plums. He stands there, tall and dashing. He lowers his eyes, revealing a bit of coldness.
The man looks like a prince from a painting. His just standing there is easy on the eye.
Lily is dumbfounded.
The stylist calls Lily twice, and she is still staring at Louis through the mirror. The stylist pats her
shoulder, teasing her, "Ms. Lily, I know that Mr. Smith's is handsome in his costume, but you've stared
at him for a long time, haven't you? You are going to act with each other later!"
Lily blushes, getting up from her chair, "I, I'm going to change my clothes."
"The costume is on the shelf. You can just take them."
Seeing that Lily walks towards the rack of costumes in a fluster and almost bumps into it, Louis wants
to hold her.
Then, Lily recovers herself, and Louis is also relieved. A faint smile appears in his eyes. He thinks with
a helpless face, 'What's wrong with this woman? After going back the country, she gets confused all the
time.'
Before putting on the costume in the dressing room, Lily is worried that she will be unable to put on it
because of her belly. Then, she finds that the costume fits her and that it covers her baby bump.
Getting out of the room, she sees Louis, who is also ready.
With no need to show his face, the man doesn't wear any makeup. He wears a headgear with an
upright crown. The jade on the crown has the same color as his robe. He looks dashing in the outfit.
The stylist praises Louis, "Mr. Smith, you look so handsome in the ancient costume!" Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Thinking of the embarrassment in front of the stylist just now, Lily stops looking at Louis and gets out.
With everything ready, Director Jarvis turns on the camera.
Lily and Louis coming over, Director Jarvis takes the script from Ms. Avery, "There aren't many lines.
You express your feelings through your eyes. Use your eyes, alright?"
Then, he tells Lily, "In the first life, you meet the man, and you don't know each other very well. When
you look at him, you should look curious, wanting to know more about him. Meanwhile, you are a
young girl. You should be shy."
Lily is a little confused, "Since I don't know him well, how can I be shy?"
Director Jarvis explains with patience, "Your parents have made a marriage pact for you. People say
that he is worthless, so deep down, you don't want to marry him. However, there's nothing you can
do."
