Wan Qing borrowed my entourage car today because she had something to do. I had no choice but to wait and hitch a ride in Dingyue’s car. So I changed back into my own clothes and sat in the chair waiting until Dingyue finished filming.

Finally, after an hour, I followed Fang Dingyue into his car. Shu Shuang was also with us. The three of us were exhausted. As soon as we got in the car, we all collapsed on the seats without saying a word. It wasn’t until we arrived at the hotel that Shu Shuang suddenly pulled me and reminded, “I can see you haven’t worn contacts before. Gu Baobei, be sure to remember to take off the colored lenses before going to bed. If you forget to take them off, who knows, one day your beautiful eyes might go blind.” Hearing this, my whole body shuddered. Then I heard her ask, “Do you know how to take them off?”

I was so scared that I nodded desperately, “I know how to take them off, I know how to take them off…”

Shu Shuang looked at me very suspiciously. She stretched out her hand and asked, “Where’s your phone?”

I didn’t dare to be careless. Her stance was enough to play a bandit. So I hurriedly took out my phone obediently. She also took it in one go, the movement like snatching. Then she very quickly entered a number in my phone. Later, when she heard the ringtone from her bag, she smiled brightly. Then she pointed at my eyes very seriously and said to me, “If it really doesn’t work, find me.”

She got me all dazed. I deeply felt in my heart, how could this girl who looked like a handsome boy be so manly? Ah…

Seeing my reaction, she happily showed her white teeth and smiled. That smile was also very heroic. Then she stretched out her hand, poked my head and said, “Gu Baobei, you don’t know I love eating pufferfish the most…”

…

As soon as we entered the hotel lobby, we encountered a group of staff from the “Heaven’s White Feather” crew gathered together. Their director was discussing something with Fu Junyan, and Fu Junyan listened silently, only occasionally nodding but not saying anything. Then, Fu Junyan’s cell phone suddenly rang. I saw him excuse himself and answer the phone, walking to a small tree. The trunk blocked half his body.

Ji Jie’er, who was standing on the side, actually greeted us very happily when she saw us. I was puzzled and couldn’t help muttering that we really weren’t familiar, okay?

Then I heard her calling out very warmly, “Dingyue!” Her voice was delicate and tender.

I instantly understood. It turned out she was here for Fang Dingyue.

But seeing Ji Jie’er walking towards us attentively, the corner of my eye still twitched. Shu Shuang nudged me with her elbow and asked, “Is she very familiar with Fang Dingyue?”

I shook my head and said in a low voice, “It doesn’t seem so…” There were no signs!

As soon as I finished speaking, Shu Shuang had already glanced at Ji Jie’er with obvious disdain. She seriously pushed me and said in a low voice, “You silly girl, be careful. She comes with ill intentions. If she’s not trying to snatch your man, she’s trying to snatch your woman. Stand your ground!”

“Hey! What do you mean my man, my woman?”

“Misspoke, misspoke. Snatch the man beside you or the woman beside you…”

Before I could retort, I heard Ji Jie’er open her mouth, “Dingyue, you’re done for the day?” Directly ignoring me and Shu Shuang! This girl!

Fang Dingyue looked at her but took a polite step back. He asked in confusion, “Excuse me, who are you?” His voice wasn’t small either. Ji Jie’er walking over was a bit showy to begin with. Now that he said this, the others probably heard it too.

Shu Shuang and I looked at each other strangely, both laughing until the corners of our eyes trembled.

“Dingyue, you don’t remember me? At the Golden Dragon Awards, I almost fell and you even helped me. I’m Ji Jie’er.” As she spoke, Ji Jie’er smoothed her hair again and said with a smile, “Dingyue, you’re such a good person who does good deeds without seeking repayment. If you hadn’t reached out in time that day, I really would have embarrassed myself. The situation at the time didn’t allow me to thank you properly. I’ve always felt uneasy about it. Since we have the luck to run into each other, can I treat you to a meal?”

“No need, it was just a small matter.” Fang Dingyue waved his hand, but clearly kept his distance. He asked instead, “So do you have anything else?”

Ji Jie’er probably didn’t expect Fang Dingyue to be so indifferent. She couldn’t continue the conversation. She was stunned for a moment, as if she had just seen me. She walked over, held my hand and said, “Xiao’ai, oh my! I’m sorry, I just saw you.”

What kind of eyesight… I complained inwardly. Shu Shuang had already interjected, “Ji Jia’er, so your eyesight is bad.” Her tone carried ten times ten dissatisfaction, not polite at all, directly making Ji Jie’er’s face turn pale with anger.

Later, when we entered the elevator and saw that there were no outsiders around, I couldn’t help but ask Shu Shuang, “Do you have a grudge against Ji Jie’er? And why does she seem to be afraid of you?”

She shook her head and said, “Not really.” Then she looked at Fang Dingyue and then at me, before slowly saying, “I met Ji Jie’er once last year. At first, she treated me like a man, calling me brother this and that, very affectionately. As soon as she entered the room, she climbed onto my lap!”

I looked up at Shu Shuang, then at her almost non-existent breasts, and said very fairly, “Shu Shuang, your female characteristics are really not obvious…”

Hearing this, she pretended to raise her fist and said, “Gu Baobei, be careful or I’ll beat you up.”

I shrank back and decisively hid behind Dingyue. I blinked and kept smiling at her, saying, “I also scare my An’an like this…”

Back in the room, I thought about it and felt something was wrong. With Ji Jie’er’s personality, unless she’s a big shot or there’s a benefit, she wouldn’t be so warm. But Shu Shuang… was she very famous?

For some things, if you want to know, search for it yourself. So without further ado, I started looking up Shu Shuang online. This search yielded unexpected results. Shu Shuang was indeed quite famous in Thailand. Her father was Thai, so she had always been developing in Thailand and was particularly popular there, a top A-list idol star. She only came to China for development last year, and had successively filmed some advertisements and MVs.

Her breakout work was a Thai movie called “Love and Punishment”, which received rave reviews online. Although it wasn’t introduced in China, it was quite popular domestically through the internet. After reading the plot summary, I realized why I didn’t pay attention to her. Although her movie was a pure love film, it was a lesbian movie. Whether in my previous life or this life, I never thought about watching this type of film!

Then I went through pages of her fan comments. The more I read, the more curious I became. I increasingly felt that the movie seemed to be very good. Then, very immorally and unprincipled, I watched a pirated version of it online…

After watching it, I became a fan of Shu Shuang! She was really, really too good at acting! After watching, it made me feel like she was a man! Speechless!

So with a bit of fan hangover, I opened my phone. Seeing the phone number she saved herself, I instantly didn’t feel any resentment. My face was even a bit red and flushed.

Also at this moment, my phone rang. As soon as I answered the call, I heard Fu Junyan say on the other end, “Xiao’ai, what’s your room number?”

My whole body trembled. Feeling guilty, I hurriedly closed the computer, but still reluctantly took another look at the very, very manly Shu Shuang. I had an inexplicable sense of guilt for the messy thoughts in my heart just now. Then I said, “What’s your room number? I’ll come find you!” Decisively fleeing the crime scene, right?

Fu Junyan’s room was at the end of the hallway. I said, “Fu Junyan, you really don’t pick. Choosing a room so far inside, how much farther do you have to walk?”

He said, “It’s quiet this way.” I pouted and collapsed on the sofa.

Seeing me like this, he put down the script in his hand, came over and sat beside me. He glanced at me and frowned slightly, asking, “You’re done filming, why haven’t you taken off the colored lenses?”

I forgot while watching Shu Shuang’s movie! I felt guilty and hurriedly hugged his waist, rubbing against his chest and said, “You help me take them off!”

Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and looked at me sideways for a long time before saying, “Xiao’ai, are you afraid to take them off yourself?”

I shook my head, nestling in his arms, and said very shamelessly, “I wore them specifically for you to see, okay? I’ve changed my appearance, but you didn’t say a word. At least say whether it looks good or not!”

He smiled, patted my back and helped me sit up straight. He stood up and looked down at me, pursing his lips. Then his thumb gently brushed over my eyes. That feeling was like a warm feather brushing the corner of my eye. Then he said, “How could you have a different look? Gu Baobei always looks the same.” His words didn’t praise me, but I felt very happy.

It’s just that Fu Junyan didn’t remove the colored lenses for me, but stood aside watching me take them off. At this time, he was very strict. He watched me fail several times, unable to remove the lenses, but he didn’t coax me. Instead, he solemnly told me, “The more afraid you are, the worse you’ll do. So your eyes will keep blinking unconsciously due to instinctive fear. You don’t need to make excuses saying you’re not capable enough to do it well. The fundamental reason why many things aren’t done well is actually just because of people’s inner resistance, because they don’t dare.” Then he squatted down in front of me, looking at me at eye level and said, “Come on, Xiao’ai, no one can replace you for this. So, be brave and try one more time. This time, just treat it as a very ordinary thing, not afraid, and it will be fine.”

His words seemed to have a soothing effect. This time, I didn’t think about anything. My eyes really didn’t blink randomly. The colored lenses came off quickly.

Only then did Fu Junyan let out a sigh of relief. He pulled me over with heartache, held a towel over my eyes, and asked over and over again, “Does it hurt or not?”

When the first episode of “Black Cinderella” aired, I was lying on Fu Junyan’s lap eating popcorn. From the start of the promotional war, the confrontation between our two series had already been fierce. The crews on both sides were so vigilant that even the makeup artists in the crew had to take a detour when they met. Both sides greeted each other with smiles on the surface, but turned around with cold faces and fought to the death.

But Fu Junyan and I watched TV together and discussed the script. He looked at mine and I looked at his. I thought if anyone saw this situation, they would be nauseated to death. Sometimes I would switch the channel to MBC to take a peek at his scenes with Ji Jie’er. Just like this, watching Fu Junyan on TV, then looking at Fu Junyan beside me, I would suddenly feel very happy. Then I would occasionally look up and smack him. At that time, he would pat my head, as if praising me. Then he lowered his head again to read the documents in his hands seriously, occasionally writing and marking.

I never asked Fu Junyan what he was busy with, or what investments he made in his spare time. When I saw that villa of his in Italy, I knew that Fu Junyan was at least not poor. Just like he never mentioned or asked about me being the Miss Moxiao even after finding out. For us, letting nature take its course was the best thing.

“Heaven’s White Feather” was also a story about a wealthy young lady. Fu Junyan played a bodyguard who was actually an undercover cop. In order to investigate a multinational corporation’s tax evasion and illegal financing, he went undercover in the CEO’s family. Then, he met the CEO’s daughter, that innocent and naive girl. Afterwards, a series of stories unfolded. As they slowly interacted, they fell in love with each other. The girl depended on and trusted him.

He was also shaken by this, but in the end, when faced with a dilemma, he still chose justice and arrested the girl’s father according to the law. With the capture of the girl’s father, the love naturally faced a crisis, followed by a series of getting back together and whatnot…

To be honest, when Ji Jie’er acted pure and innocent, she really had a bit of the look of a well-bred young lady. It’s just… I nudged Fu Junyan and complained, “She can still handle it like this now. I’m just afraid your screenwriters will have her be weak and fragile throughout, then she’ll really be a vase that only knows how to cry.”

Fu Junyan didn’t object or even raise an eyebrow.

“I’m talking about your co-star, aren’t you going to react?”

He put down the document in his hand, finally looked at the TV screen, then lowered his head to look at me and said, “I’m not familiar with her.” I chuckled, thinking of what Dingyue said in front of everyone today, “I don’t know you.” I laughed until I choked. Fu Junyan impatiently patted my back and asked, “Silly pufferfish, what are you giggling about?”

I had just caught my breath and was about to answer when there was a sudden knock on his door. I glanced at the time in the lower right corner of the TV and muttered in a low voice, “Who is it so late?” As I spoke, I lazily lay on Fu Junyan and winked at him.

Fu Junyan shook his head, pulled me up from his arms, and walked to the door before asking, “Who is it?”

Through the door, I clearly heard that voice say, “Junyan, it’s Jie’er. I want to ask for your advice on some issues.” That voice was really dripping with charm!

I had already jumped up when I heard the words “Junyan”. Hearing that sentence about seeking advice, my anger flared up. Advice! What issues do you need advice on in the middle of the night? Woman! Ah!

The city gate was already on fire. I didn’t even bother to find my slippers. I ran to Fu Junyan’s back in three or two steps, barefoot. I hugged Fu Junyan from behind and bit his ear, whispering complaints to him, “Junyan! Junyan! I haven’t even called you that, have I?” Fu Junyan’s body stiffened because of my reaction. His large palm pressed on my mischievous hands around his waist. He turned around and pulled me into his arms with one tug.

Then he lowered his face halfway. Because we were so close, his breath brushed against my face. It’s just that at this moment, he smiled with his eyebrows raised, bright and dazzling, charming and enchanting. It was different from his usual warmth. His whole body exuded an evil aura. I had never seen him smile like this, as if I had entered a phantasmagorical and dazzling maze, very intoxicating.

He really smiled too well, too charmingly. As I watched, I lost my strength. Then I felt his lips against my ear, ticklish and warm. I wanted to shrink away, but he easily held me in place. Then he said, his voice full of lingering charm and enchantment, “Good girl, call me that again…”

I looked at him weakly. His voice, paired with that slightly hooked corner of his mouth, was so sexy it could drip water. I just stared at him like this, unable to look away, as if bewitched. I slowly called out, “Junyan…”

Then he lowered his head, his eyes gentle and beautiful. His warm breath brushed against my face once more.

It wasn’t until much later, when I was weakly held in his arms and there was no longer the intermittent knocking on the door, that I remembered to ask, “Where is she?”

Fu Junyan’s eyes turned cold. He bent down, picked me up and walked back. He said very calmly, “She left a long time ago.”

At this moment, I discovered that Fu Junyan might not be so easy to talk to either…
