Sean looked at her smiling eyes and shifted his gaze down.
She stepped on the carpet with her bare feet, exposing half of her calves. Feeling uncomfortable, Chloe couldn't help but draw her legs back and asked in a fierce tone, "What are you looking at?"
Sean didn't get angry, but instead withdrew his gaze and looked at her. He said ponderingly, "Your heart belongs to someone else? I know you are a picky person, so who's the lucky guy?"
Sean asked knowingly.
Chloe turned around, walked to her bed, put on her slippers, and pretended to not hear what he just said.
Eddie told her that she couldn't reveal this to anyone yet.
That's why she couldn't answer Sean.
Sean came in and closed the door behind him.
Chloe glimpsed at him but didn't find it awkward for the two of them to be in the same room. When they were teenagers going to high school, they even drank from the same bottle of water.
She sat in front of her dressing table and combed her hair. Looking at herself in the mirror, she asked Sean, "Why are you are? Is something wrong?"
"Can't I look for you even if there's nothing wrong?" Sean sat at the corner of the dressing table, placed his arms around his chest, and looked at Chloe. "Who's the guy that you are fancying over?"
Sean continued asking.
Chloe glanced at him, "Why do you want to know?"
Suddenly, she warily narrowed her eyes and looked at Sean, "What do you know?"
If he didn't know about anything, why did he keep asking her this question?
"What do I need to know? Why are you asking this?" Sean smiled and asked.
Chloe looked at him from top to bottom, and from the bottom back to the top. "You don't look like the kind of person who would get to the bottom."
Sean stared at her affectionately, "You know me so well? You've fallen for me, haven't you?"
Even though she was familiar with Sean, he had never looked at her this affectionately before. Chloe froze for a second before she turned her head and said disdainfully, "Tsk, are you still dreaming? It's broad daylight on the outside. Have I fallen for you? Are you kidding me? You're not even my type."
Sean smiled and said teasingly, "You haven't tried it before, how do you know I'm not your type."
Even though Chloe was still inexperienced, she knew what he meant. She instantly blushed. No matter how thick-skinned she was, she was unable to compete with a man.
"I'm tired, and I'm going to sleep. You can leave now." Chloe tried to chase him away. She rolled to her bed and hid under the blanket.
Sean didn't leave but instead stood beside the bed. When he was filming with the crew, he had a habit of brewing emotions before he could enter a specific role.
Then, he would only let the director start shooting once he felt that he's ready for the role.
No matter how good his acting skills were, at least it was proven before. Otherwise, he wouldn't be famous right now.
