Speaking of which, Pei Chiyao really did not know Zhi Yao's real age.

According to the records in previous books, this kind of spirit monster should have gone through thousands of years of practice before being able to transform into a human form.

Moreover, the age algorithm for foxes should also be different from that of humans.

However, Brother Sun's words really reminded Pei Chiyao that Zhi Yao did not yet have an identity in the human world.

In other words, she was an undocumented resident.

In other words, she did not have official status in the human world.

To put it another way, when Zhi Yao is able to completely transform into a human, he will arrange an identity for her at that time.

There was also that matter...

He lowered his eyes, holding his phone and sent a message.

Just after sending it, the director's voice sounded from the crew side, "Cut! No, Yao Yao, that's not how to act."

The director started to feel a little headache.

During the initial audition, Zhi Yao tried out the role of a little fox entering the human world for the first time, appearing spirited, quirky and silly. Zhi Yao could be said to be a natural fit for the role.

However, the scene they were filming today was her first taste of love, frightened and apprehensive. The emotions here were too complicated, Zhi Yao could not comprehend them at all.

The director was explaining to Zhi Yao with the script in hand, but Zhi Yao still had no way to experience these emotions.

"Cut, cut, cut!"

The director called out impatiently several times, "Yao Yao, take a break first and try to get a feel for it."

Whispers also began around them, "She didn't really get in through offering sexual favors, did she?"

After all, this was the first time everyone had seen Zhi Yao's acting skills. How could she act so... simple and straightforward?

She was like a three-year-old child, with every emotion written on her face. Although this role was not very difficult, she could not perform that poorly, could she?

Previously, several actresses had auditioned and the director was not very satisfied. Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ N0ᴠᴇFɪre.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

They were all cunning people who had struggled in the entertainment industry. They would be good at playing sophisticated, complex characters, but when it came to innocent, blank slate ones like this, their acting came across as very contrived.

Zhi Yao was the complete opposite of them. She could play the innocent type, but she could not convey more complex emotions.

When happy she could only express happiness, when sad only sadness. She could not comprehend mingled emotions of sorrow and joy at all.

The director looked at Zhi Yao with a frown, and asked, "Yao Yao, how old are you this year?"

He had not yet signed a contract with Zhi Yao, and did not know much about her personal information.

How old?

Zhi Yao frowned, thought for a moment, "I don't remember either."

Director: "..."

Could she be an idiot!

The director's gaze toward Zhi Yao instantly became very strange.

Zhi Yao lowered her head, also knowing that she had made a mistake.

She was really embarrassed that she had delayed so many people to accompany her again and again.

The young girl fidgeted with the prop handkerchief in her hand, almost wringing it to pieces.

She tried hard to hold back the tears welling up in her eyes.

When Pei Chiyao walked over, this was the scene he saw.

"Yao Yao."

As soon as these two words came out, Zhi Yao instantly could no longer hold it in. She instinctively wanted to go hug Pei Chiyao and rub against him for comfort, but suddenly, Zhi Yao remembered that she was on a crew set.

In front of everyone, she should not do such embarrassing things.

Pei Chiyao glanced at the director. His gaze was full of oppressiveness, and the director instantly shuddered.

He had forgotten in his anger just now... he could not afford to provoke this young lady!

"I'll go explain the acting to her, everyone please take a break first. I'll treat everyone to afternoon tea later." Pei Chiyao apologetically looked at everyone. This one glance instantly stunned everyone.

Good heavens, when had they ever seen Pei Chiyao be so polite!

Was this still Pei Chiyao?!

Everyone watched with wide eyes as Pei Chiyao took Zhi Yao to a secluded place where they could not see the specific situation inside due to something blocking the view.

Only then did they disappointedly withdraw their gazes.

As soon as they arrived at this spot, Zhi Yao impatiently threw herself into Pei Chiyao's arms and started sobbing grievously against his chest, "Pei Chiyao... I... Am I especially, especially stupid..."

She felt she had completely embarrassed herself.

Although the director did not scold her earlier, Zhi Yao knew that everyone was disdainful of her.

She could sense their emotions.

Pei Chiyao gently rubbed Zhi Yao's head and lightly patted her back, just like comforting a child to sleep, again and again, "No you're not."

Zhi Yao was not stupid, she just did not understand.

She did not understand these complex human emotions.

After crying for a while, Zhi Yao finally felt a little better emotionally, "Pei Chiyao... hic... I... hic..."

She had just wanted to speak when hiccups came out as soon as she opened her mouth.

Crying like this would do that.

He lowered his eyes to look at the little fox in his arms, then took a tissue and carefully wiped away her tears, "Have some water."

Zhi Yao hugged the mineral water bottle and drank several gulps before finally stopping the sobbing hiccups.

"Yao Yao, crying is useless. Crying does not solve any problems, do you understand?" Pei Chiyao tidied up her clothes and slightly disheveled hair.

Zhi Yao nodded, "Then what should I do?"

She really did not know how to act.

At first she only thought it would be fresh and fun, but she did not expect filming to be such a difficult thing.

The young girl raised her hand and grabbed Pei Chiyao's hand, "Will you teach me? They all say you are very, very awesome."

Her eyes were clearer than ever after the bout of tears.

Seeing Zhi Yao look at him with such admiring eyes, Pei Chiyao's heart shook violently.

Seeing that Zhi Yao's makeup had already been ruined, Pei Chiyao threw caution to the wind.

Since it was already ruined, messing it up some more would not matter.

He raised his hand to press the back of Zhi Yao's head. His passionate, all-encompassing kiss instantly engulfed Zhi Yao, surrounding her with his pleasant light sandalwood scent.

The young girl was stunned rigid on the spot, completely shocked.

It was a good while before Pei Chiyao finally released Zhi Yao. "Before teaching you, I will collect some compensation first."

He smiled lightly, obviously very satisfied with this compensation.

Zhi Yao was still a bit dazed. Pei Chiyao had already opened up the script.

He pondered for a moment, and suddenly spoke up, "Yao Yao, try imagining the male lead as your favorite food."

Food?

The mention of food instantly brightened Zhi Yao's eyes, "Braised chicken stewed with potatoes!"

"Right."

Human emotions were something Zhi Yao had no way of empathizing with.

She could only substitute these emotions with food for the time being.

The original storyline instantly transformed from a little fox's first taste of human love into...

There was once an enormous braised chicken stewed with potatoes placed in front of her. But she then found out that the braised chicken stewed with potatoes was poisoned! She would die if she ate it, yet she desperately wanted to eat it.

Because that braised chicken stewed with potatoes looked so fragrant and tender.

With such emotions, would she not feel frightened, apprehensive and tempted?

She instantly understood.
