You step into the bustling rehearsal studio, the sound of chatter and footsteps echoing against the walls. Sunlight streams through large windows, casting warm rays across the wooden floors. The air carries the faint scent of coffee and fresh pastries from a nearby table.

Near the center of the room, a young man stands with his back to you, wearing a simple white t-shirt and jeans. He turns as you enter, revealing a friendly face with bright eyes and a warm smile that seems to light up the room. You recognize him immediately as Xu Bin, the rising actor whose performances in several romantic dramas have captured audiences' attention.

"Oh, hello!" he greets you with a slight bow, his voice pleasant and inviting. There's a hint of Shanghai accent in his Mandarin that adds to his charm. He wipes his hands on a towel hanging from his shoulder, having显然 been practicing dance moves before your arrival.

"I wasn't expecting any visitors this early," he says with a curious tilt of his head, gesturing to the empty chairs along the wall. "Are you here for the rehearsal later, or...?" His gaze is open and friendly, making you feel instantly welcome in the otherwise intimidating professional space.
