When Gu Xuanze returned, Lu Youze’s first scene was already being filmed. This scene did not involve Lu Youze, but even after scanning the area, Gu Xuanze could not find him.

It was a bit strange that Lu Youze wasn’t watching Lu Youxi’s scene from the sidelines.

“Do you know where Youze went?” Gu Xuanze asked one of the staff members nearby.

“Mr. Gu,” the staff member said nervously, “Mr. Lu went toward the grass area. He said he was going to find Yan Ge. Director Wu happened to need to discuss something with Yan Ge.”

Gu Xuanze nodded, thanked the staff member, and headed toward Lu Youze’s direction.

When Lu Youze arrived at the grass area, he witnessed a dangerous scene that made him gasp.

Ou Yan was riding a horse, and the white horse seemed to be sulking, refusing to take a single step forward. Ou Yan couldn’t believe that he was being bullied by a horse. Already in a bad mood, he angrily kicked the horse’s belly, causing the horse to rear its head and let out a loud neigh. The horse then stomped hard with its hind legs, nearly throwing Ou Yan off.

The memory of falling off a horse as a child suddenly surged back, and Ou Yan’s mind went blank for a moment. He instinctively pulled the reins tight. The startled white horse, in a panic, started running madly forward.

“That idiot,” Lu Youze muttered, already running toward the scene when he saw Ou Yan kick the horse. Now, he was speeding up.

Ou Yan was probably really scared. The terrifying childhood memory caused him to panic, and he kept kicking the horse’s belly.

Lu Youze had no choice but to speed up as well. He grabbed the reins firmly from the side, and although the horse stopped, Ou Yan was thrown off.

The moment Ou Yan fell, Lu Youze caught him. Using his experience, he protected Ou Yan’s head. The two of them rolled around the grass before finally coming to a stop.

“Lu Youze,” Ou Yan lay on top of him, anxiously looking at him. “Are you okay?”

“Get off me first.”

Rolling around on the grass wasn’t a big deal. He had had several accidents like this while filming, so he knew how to protect himself. The only discomfort was the pressure on his stomach. But of course, the young master on top of him had zero life experience and didn’t even know to get off first.

Not only was his body uncomfortable, but Lu Youze also worried about Gu Xuanze getting angry if he saw them.

Ou Yan finally reacted, hurriedly standing up and pulling Lu Youze up from the ground.

“Thank you,” Ou Yan awkwardly turned his head away, feeling a little embarrassed. He looked like a large dog eager for its owner’s affection.

It seemed he wasn’t as hard to get along with as expected.

He thought the other person would probably arrogantly say something like, “I don’t need your interference.”

“What are you laughing at?” Ou Yan’s face turned cold again, looking at Lu Youze with displeasure. In the next second, he gave up and muttered, “Forget it, laugh if you want. This time, I really embarrassed myself.”

“I wasn’t laughing at you,” Lu Youze’s voice still carried a trace of amusement, though it wasn’t convincing at all. “I was just surprised that you could actually thank me.”

“I’m not completely unreasonable,” Ou Yan said, though he wasn’t very confident in his own words.

“Then how about we make up?” Lu Youze seized the opportunity to make amends. “I apologize for those nonsense things I said before.”

Ou Yan froze for a moment before coldly saying, “So you can apologize? You always act so high and mighty.”

The young master was indeed very petty.

“People always change,” Lu Youze smiled. He continued, “And I really like hardworking people.”

“Stop being so disgusting,” Ou Yan’s face flushed slightly. He angrily said, “Who would care about your liking? Besides, you’re only a few years older than me, don’t call me a kid.”

“You’re much cuter when you act all sarcastic.”

“Lu Youze,” Ou Yan gritted his teeth, calling his name, “Don’t get too carried away.”

“Hahaha,” Lu Youze’s hearty laugh echoed across the grass. He realized that the other person was also someone who pretended to be tough but was soft-hearted. Perhaps Ou Yan didn’t actually dislike him as much as he had imagined.

Just as Ou Yan was about to fire back, Lu Youze saw Gu Xuanze walking over from the distance. He waved at him, then looked at Ou Yan and said, “I’m heading over now. By the way, Director Wu needs to talk to you. Don’t stay here too long.”

“Ah Ze.” Lu Youze walked up to Gu Xuanze, switching to a smiling expression. “How did you know I was here?”

Gu Xuanze glanced at the dirt and grass on Lu Youze’s clothes, furrowing his brow slightly. “Youze, what’s going on here?”

“Huh?” Lu Youze quickly patted the grass off his clothes. “I was just sitting on the grass for a while, nothing happened…”

Gu Xuanze clearly didn’t believe him. He glanced at Ou Yan in the distance, already having an idea in his mind, but didn’t press further.
