“Yes, yes,” Shi Jin said obediently.
When she got home, she took off her shoes. When Fu Xiuyuan handed her flat slippers, she realized that the carpet had been replaced by a thicker and softer rabbit fur blanket.
“Sit down for a while. I’ll get the butler to start dinner,” Fu Xiuyuan said softly.
“Sure.” Shi Jin sat on the sofa and picked up the script to look at the filming tomorrow. As she read, she couldn’t help but close her eyes.
Fu Xiuyuan rolled up his sleeves, revealing his strong forearms. He brought a blanket over to cover her and kissed the end of her long eyelashes before returning to the kitchen.
Shi Jin woke up to the smell of food. She opened her eyes. At first, she was a little dazed, but then she saw Fu Xiuyuan carrying the food to the table.
She blinked, doubting her eyes.
Fu Xiuyuan basically didn’t cook. Although he had done it before, it was roughly on par with Shi Jin’s level and could be considered a dark cuisine, but this tasted very different.
“You’re awake?” Fu Xiuyuan walked over. There were no creases in his white shirt, making Shi Jin think it had been an illusion when she saw him serving food from the kitchen.
“Is it time to eat?” Shi Jin was hungry, and when she said it, she became even hungrier.
“Yes.” Fu Xiuyuan reached out to help her to her feet. “It’s ready.”
Shi Jin went to the dining table and looked at the steamed salmon, spicy prawns, and various other favorite dishes on the table. Her appetite immediately increased.
Fu Xiuyuan peeled shrimp for her and put it on her plate. “Try it.”
“Delicious.” Shi Jin took a bite and narrowed her eyes. She was very satisfied with the taste.
“Then eat more.” Fu Xiuyuan continued to peel for her.
“Who’s the chef today?” Shi Jin asked casually.
Fu Xiuyuan’s fingers paused and he pursed his lips. “What’s wrong?”
“It’s delicious. I want to eat his cooking again.” Shi Jin continued eating.
The hesitation on Fu Xiuyuan’s lips dissipated as he said in a low voice, “Okay, he’ll always do the cooking in the future.”
“You should eat too.” Shi Jin offered him food.
Just like that, Fu Xiuyuan peeled prawns for Shi Jin while eating himself. He was very busy during the meal, but it was very fulfilling.
After dinner, Shi Jin went to wash her hands and mouth. Fu Xiuyuan followed and stood beside her. He squeezed some hand soap and washed with her.
When she was done, she smiled at him. “Thank you, hubby. The food tonight was really delicious.”
“You know I made it?” Fu Xiuyuan was surprised.
“Such delicious and appetizing food must have been made by my husband. Did you learn from Lanchen?”
She saw through him. Fu Xiuyuan laughed. “Yes, I’ve been learning for a few days.”
“Then this master is quite good. Of course, it’s also because his disciple has a high comprehension ability.”
“Then let me know what you want to eat next time.”
“Okay.” Shi Jin smiled. “Then I won’t stand on ceremony.”
***
The rest of the shoot went well for Shi Jin.
Three or four months later, the shooting was winding down.
At this time, Shi Jin was already seven months pregnant.
However, it was probably because of the ancient costume, and the fact that Shi Jin’s bump was not very obvious to begin with, if she did not specifically mention it, almost no one would know that she was pregnant.
She went to the Fu residence. When Old Madam Fu saw her, she quickly pulled her to her side and said with a smile, “Come quickly, let me take a look. Why is there still no change in your stomach? Did you not eat well?”
“Grandma, I eat a lot and well.”
“But how can anyone tell that you’re pregnant when you look like this?” Old Madam Fu shook her head. “What did the doctor say?”
Fu Xiuyuan said, “Grandma, have you forgotten that Shi Jin is a doctor herself?”
“That’s still different. Logically speaking, her stomach should be big by now. Otherwise, the child will be very small in the future, right?” Old Madam Fu was still worried.
Old Master Fu sat at the side and said, “Xiuyuan and Shi Jin aren’t worried. Why are you worried? It won’t be a problem.”
“How can I not be anxious? I’m just concerned about Shi Jin.”
“Grandma, I’ve checked. There’s really no problem.” Shi Jin eased her heart. “The doctor said that the child’s growth and development are normal in all aspects. Everyone’s physique is different. I’m in the category of not having an evident bump.”
Only then did Old Madam Fu relax. “Then after filming this movie, go back and rest well. It’s very tiring to be busy outside every day.”
“Got it, Grandma.” Shi Jin nodded.
When the filming was coming to an end, Shi Jin actually had other plans.
After a film was completed, there would usually be some corresponding publicity and promotional activities to maintain the popularity of the post-production period until the official release.
Shi Jin had to hurry up and film the materials for this period of time.
Still, she’d postponed what she could. The few that remained were publicity Shi Jin found necessary and kept.
At this time, Yao Jiahong and his assistant were not the only ones accompanying Shi Jin. Fu Xiuyuan also specially made time to accompany her to finish filming the last promotional event.
“Master Fu, the filming this time is on a cruise ship. There are three promotional materials to be filmed and two interviews to be done. We will be returning soon.” Yao Jiahong handed over the information.
“Shi Jin, is there a problem getting on the cruise ship?” Fu Xiuyuan asked softly for Shi Jin’s opinion.
She was eating a shrimp bun. The skin was thin and the filling was tender. Fu Xiuyuan had specially brought it for her when he came out in the morning.
She could eat quite a lot now, and the scenes were basically over. She was not afraid of getting fat. Besides, she did not look fat yet.
Seeing that she hadn’t finished eating, Fu Xiuyuan waited patiently for her and took a tissue to wipe her mouth.
After swallowing, Shi Jin said, “No problem. I don’t get seasick.”
“Alright, then the plan is set,” Fu Xiuyuan said to Yao Jiahong.
After the itinerary was arranged, Fu Xiuyuan and Shi Jin got into the car and went to the cruise ship.
The entire filming team also came over. Leading them was the host, Jing Ya. Her voice was very gentle and pleasant. “Shi Jin, welcome.”
“Thank you. Thank you for today’s interview.”
“It’s no trouble, as it should be,” Jing Ya said as she watched the people behind Shi Jin. Even Fu Xiuyuan had followed.
However, he did not smile and his aura was very strict. Jing Ya only dared to greet him and did not dare to talk to Fu Xiuyuan casually.
The assistant brought Shi Jin’s lunch box over and placed it aside. There were also specially cut fruits and warm milk.
“I’m sorry, I may replenish some energy at any time, but I’ll try to eat during the break. It won’t delay the normal material shoots and interviews,” Shi Jin explained simply.
“It’s okay, it’s okay.” It was the first time Jing Ya had seen an actress eat so much.
The key was that Shi Jin was not fat. It was very surprising.
