Chapter 87

Because both of them were busy with work, the date the two had agreed on still hadn't actually happened.

……

After they bid each other good night, Xu Can had just hung up on Mei Mei's video call when his phone suddenly rang again.

"Baby, I miss you."

Emma Stone greeted him in a sweet tone.

Xu Can had always been baffled — where had the Stone Sister who used to call everyone "bro" on set, knock back a full glass of rum in one go without batting an eye, and speak in a loud, brash manner, gone?

The current Stone Sister had completely turned into a clingy little woman in front of Xu Can.

"Baby, I miss you too."

"You clearly don't — it's been three whole days and you haven't even called me once."

"Huh? Three days? I've been so caught up filming lately I lost track of time."

"Forget it, the fact that you didn't hang up on me already makes me really happy."

Ah, this……

Her tone was so gentle that Xu Can actually felt a little guilty.

He really hadn't deliberately not called — he genuinely had been busy filming, shooting from morning till night, and still had to discuss the plot with the Nolan brothers on set.

Mei Mei's album production progress, the promotion for John Wick, the Marvel movie script……

All of these required Xu Can's attention, so naturally he had no energy left to flirt.

"I'm about to go shoot a new film — Zombieland, that movie should be fine, right?"

"Of course, you showed me the script last time — it'll surely succeed, at least a hundred million at the box office."

To capitalize on Emma Stone's popularity before it faded, Sony Pictures planned to greenlight a low-budget zombie movie ahead of schedule.

Emma Stone would star as the female lead, appearing alongside Woody Harrelson and Jesse Eisenberg.

In his past life this had been Stone Sister's own work — it earned both critical acclaim and box-office success, a solid choice.

"Also, the premiere of Twilight is set for early May — will you come with me to the premiere then?"

"Of course, I'll go with you… wait! Early May?"

Xu Can suddenly realized it!

Wouldn't that mean John Wick would be going head-to-head with Twilight?

That was a phenomenon-level film that had swept across more than a hundred countries worldwide!

Now this was getting interesting!
