Su Ting glanced towards Gu Dai, then faced Zhao Hong, articulating politely, "I am honored by Director Zhao's proposition, yet I regret to inform that I'm engrossed in selecting paintings and might not have the leisure to discuss the storyline."
Zhao Hong was mildly disappointed by the response. "The final lineup for the drama will be finalized this afternoon. Missing this opportunity would mean a potential collaboration in our upcoming project a year later."
As the country got wind of Su Ting's plans to expand his career domestically, he had been in the sights of many directors. Zhao Hong was particularly remorseful about setting an early deadline for casting; had he delayed it a bit, he might have had a chance.
Gu Dai pondered upon hearing Su Ting's reply, understanding he was rejecting this opportunity due to her.
