Female Novel
Chapter 1290
“I’m most afraid of dogs! Where are they?” Xavier hid behind Leia. He was nearly 190cm tall, but helooked like a kid hiding behind his mother’s skirts. Leia pursed her lips and tried her best to suppressher laughter, and patted his head as if he was a child. “Don’t be scared, I’ll protect you. Dogs won’t hurtyou. Just stay behind me and stop screaming.”
They supported each other like an old couple and walked through that muddy road until they finallyarrived at the set of Happy Days.
“Finally, it’s over!” Xavier heaved a deep sigh, feeling like he had gone through hell.
“Stop exaggerating!” Leia looked at him in confusion. “This is a remote village, so there’ll be mud anddogs everywhere. Why did you torture yourself and come with me if you were so scared?”
“What do you think?” Xavier headed to a small stream and washed his feet, smiling faintly.
“Do I look like someone who purposely looks for trouble?”
“Yes, you do!” Leia replied bluntly.
Xavier rolled his eyes. “I was worried about someone, so I thought of taking care of her, but she clearlydespises me. Ah, how ungrateful!”
“Don’t mock me! I’m the one taking care of you. If you hadn’t taken so long, I would have arrived at theset ages ago…”
“Fine, I’m just a busybody. I deserve it.” Xavier was slightly angry now. Every time he was nice to her,she made fun of him. He did all that for nothing!
‘I will go now to stop troubling you.” After Xavier washed away most of the mud, he left Leia washingher feet and walked towards the set not far away.
The set was a tile-roofed house with a large compound and many small rooms as well as some petsand farm animals. It was near the mountains and located beside a river. Happy Days enjoyed goodviewership since its launch. They would usually invite famous guests other than their fixed celebrities.Those fixed celebrities were mostly famous singers, actors, and hosts. They had been shooting thatshow for five seasons, so they were very familiar with each other, but with Shirley around, theatmosphere had become strained.
Shirley was a delicate lady. Although she would not directly put on airs, she would express herthoughts through her assistant and agent. For example, she did not want to cook because the smokewould harm her skin. She also did not want to do farm work for the same reason. The only thing shewanted to do was to sit and chat with the guests, but she didn’t have any creative ideas, so she alwaysput others in an awkward position.novelbin
Hence, the fixed celebrities had had enough of her, and were discussing privately if they could dismissher.
