Xia Wei held the prop sword in her hand and took a step back. She smiled guiltily and replied, “All! Yes, of course they won’t be so biased! Actually, when Tingting’s mother gave me the silk banner that day, she also gave me your banner and asked me to help pass it to you…”

“I’ve been very busy recently, so I forgot! Of course, I didn’t do it on purpose. I’ll get it for you when I get home. Is that okay? I’m sorry!”

Looking at the anxious expression on the girl’s face, Jian Tan raised his eyebrows in amusement. A trace of cunning flashed across his eyes. He chuckled and replied, “Oh, so that’s how it is! I thought that I was the one who suggested you to sign with Emperor in the studio that day. You didn’t want to see me anymore. Fortunately, that’s not the case!”

Xia Wei, who instinctively felt that Jian Tan was deliberately playing tricks on her, was speechless.

“I know you didn’t do it on purpose. It’s fine.” Jian Tan looked at the depressed Xia Wei and added teasingly.

“I…” It was already the umpteenth time today that Xia Wei was choked by Jian Tan’s words. She realized that Jian Tan was a bad person and liked to tease her at times!

However, He Shi quickly pushed the door open and helped Xia Wei transition from this awkward scene.

Seeing that the two people who were practicing the dance had stopped, He Shi smiled and went forward. “Classical sword dancing requires a lot of basic skills. It’s not easy to force you if you really can’t reach the standard. You just have to try your best! The members of the other teams have already gone to the canteen to eat. How long does your team want to practice?”

He Shi’s voice also interrupted Song Chu and Wei Dong, who were very focused. Seeing that someone had finally come to save them from this “purgatory”-like practice room, Sun Hao and Tian Yang hurriedly replied, “We’re almost done with Teacher He. We also want to go to the canteen to eat, haha! Did you specially come to call us over?”

He Shi nodded, but when he spoke, he was talking to Xia Wei and Jian Tan. “It’s almost 12 pm. Let’s go over and eat something first. No matter how urgent it is, it won’t take such a short time! Let’s go. Teacher Lily will go over too.”

Lily slowly heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this. She smiled gently and said, “Alright, everyone, go over and eat first! We’ll continue practicing at two in the afternoon. Rest well and cheer up in the afternoon.”

As she spoke, she turned to look at Xia Wei and the smile on her face deepened. “Weiwei, it’s been hard on you. Come early in the afternoon. I’ll help you move again.”

“Got it, Teacher Lily. 1’11 come over after dinner,” Xia Wei replied indifferently, looking very easy to talk to.

Jian Tan did not say anything after hearing that. However, he had the thought of coming over with Xia Wei for a while.

At 12:10 p.m., in the student cafeteria.

Xia Wei, who was carrying her plate to the chair, was quickly surrounded by a few men beside her.

Jian Tan sat beside Xia Wei with ease. Sitting opposite her were Wei Dong and Song Chu, as well as the music director teacher who insisted on joining in.

He Shi glanced at Xia Wei’s plate and asked with a smile, “You’ve been exercising for so long today, but you don’t eat much. Are you going to lose weight?”

Xia Wei nodded when she heard that. “That’s right, Teacher He. I’m preparing for the upcoming small web drama. I have to be thinner to look good!”

“You’re already good-looking enough now. In my opinion, you female artists are really too hard working. All of you have such good figures, but you still want to lose weight all day!” He Shi said casually.

Xia Wei chuckled and did not say anything. If it was not for the sake of looking good on screen in ancient costumes, she would not have lost any weight.

Jian Tan took a sip of his drink elegantly and asked Xia Wei softly, “What web drama? It won’t conflict with the other shows, right?”

Knowing that Jian Tan was mentioning that she was worried that the filming schedule of “Zhaoyuan” and “Female Assassin” would collide, Xia Wei turned to look at him and explained with a smile, “Brother Wang will handle these things well. Don’t worry. Besides, didn’t Director Chen just say that we have to postpone the start of filming here? We should be able to make it in time! The web drama has been discussed before. The filming cycle won’t be too long. They shouldn’t collide!”

Jian Tan nodded and fell silent without saying anything..
