Chapter: 1614
The shooting had ended because it was night, so they could not tell if Xavier was a guest or merely there for a visit.
�We�re here to see someone. May I know if Shirley is around? � Leia asked directly.
�Shirley?� Angelo became annoyed when Shirley�s name was mentioned. He said indifferently, �She�s a princess. Of course, she won�t stay here.�
�What do you mean? Don�t tell me she�s not here!� Leia almost broke down. It was a long car ride, and she had soldiered through the muddy road and water path before finally arriving on the set. If they told her that Shirley was not there, she�d go mad.
�No, she�s not staying here now. When the cameras are rolling, she�ll be here.� Angelo smiled bitterly.
�Where is she now?� Leia hurriedly asked.
�She�s having a rest in town. Although we have bedrooms here, that princess can�t stand to stay in them. After the shooting is over, she goes to the hotel in town to enjoy the air- conditioning there. Isn�t there a muddy road on the way here? She spent some money to let the villagers carry her over, so technically, she�s providing jobs for the villagers too.
�Ahem, ahem!� Lily hurriedly grabbed Angelo�s arm to stop him. �Miss White�s body is sensitive. We don�t have air- conditioning here, and it�s not very convenient with the water and electricity supply. It�s very normal for her to stay somewhere with better conditions. After all, she�s an actress. It�s one of her jobs to take good care of her body.�
�Tsk, she just puts on airs. Don�t make it sound so righteous, � Leia directly commented.
�So, does that mean that we have to go back to town to see her?�
�Yes, but it�s too late now, and the road is bad. It�s dangerous for you to go back there. Why don�t you wait until tomorrow? She�ll be back here when we start shooting.� Lily suggested a compromise.
Leia nodded while looking at the dark sky. �Okay, I�ll let her have another easy night.�
After all, she had time to waste with Shirley. She would not give up until she got a result.
�But there�s a problem if you two are here for a visit.� Angelo explained bluntly, �Our bedrooms here are fixed. The only vacant one is Miss White�s room, so you guys may� have to share a room. Is that okay?
�Yes!�
�No!�
Xavier and Leia spoke at the same time.
Xavier wanted to stay in the same room as Leia, but Leia felt that it wasn�t a good idea to get close to him since they had officially broken up with each other.
�Umm� it�s up to the both of you, I guess. Either way, wash up and rest well; there�ll be a grand welcoming feast for the both of you early tomorrow morning. If you�re not comfortable with the arrangement�� Lily thought about it for a while, then pointed at a small thatched shed nearby.
�There�s a cowshed over there. We can set up a bed there, and you can make do with it JrNovels.com
