Just Blame Me For Being Blind in the Beginning

From now on, your memories of water won't be of drowning but of our kiss.

To sum up Pei Ying's current daily life, she spent each day filming for her drama and indulging in the company of a handsome man.

Mm, and she was also eating meat. Real meat.

She was filming another eating scene that day, and it was high-grade steak that the hero had cooked for the heroine. The steak was specially prepared by the head chef of one of the Yu’s restaurant branches. Per the rules of the universe, Pei Ying first took a photo of the meal and posted it to Weibo. (Note: I just noticed that Universe Pictures and the restaurant group are both headed by families surnamed Yu, but to clarify, they are different groups.)

As usual, there came a wave of envious commenters, who were especially proactive.

Ever since she started filming Season of Love, my Pei has turned into a food blogger 🙂

I have to see photos of you eating meat on Weibo every day, and then I have to watch the scene again later on TV. So tiring (bye)

Your good friend, Pei Ying Plus, is coming soon. (smile)

I decided to have steak for dinner. (smile)

It’s true that Universe’s props are known for being good, but I’ve never seen you so obsessed with blogging (bye). Hope you get fat, fat, fat, fat, fat, fat.

Pei Pei, does your drama still need help? qaq For a role that gets to eat meat qaq

Pei Ying wasn’t done after her Weibo post though. She even went and sent Song Nanchuan a photo.

[Ying Ying] What are you up to? I’m eating meat.

[Song Nanchuan] Flaunting food to me again?

[Ying Ying] Can’t help it. It’s too good!

Pei Ying smiled at his reply, but before she could type more, the assistant director called for her. It was time to continue filming. The next scene wasn’t about food, but instead an intense emotional moment between her character and the male lead. She quickly set her phone aside and focused on her role.

Later that evening, after filming wrapped up, Pei Ying checked her phone again. A new message from Song Nanchuan brought a smile to her face.

[Song Nanchuan] Busy day? I’ll make it up to you with a steak better than that one.

Pei Ying replied instantly.

[Ying Ying] Bold claim. You’d better deliver.

[Song Nanchuan] Come over and find out.

Unable to resist the invitation, Pei Ying found herself heading straight to his apartment. When she arrived, the scent of freshly cooked steak filled the air, making her stomach growl.

Song Nanchuan greeted her with a casual smile, an apron tied around his waist. “Perfect timing. Dinner’s ready.”

Pei Ying raised an eyebrow. “You’re really serious about this, huh?”

“Always,” he said, gesturing for her to sit.

As she took a bite of the perfectly cooked steak, Pei Ying couldn’t help but sigh in delight. “Okay, I admit. This is better than the chef’s.”

Song Nanchuan leaned back, looking smug. “Told you.”

Pei Ying laughed, her heart feeling unexpectedly light. For the first time in a long while, she realized that life wasn’t just about work. It was also about moments like this—filled with good food, warm laughter, and someone who truly cared.
