Huayu: Traffic is king

Chapter 215 MV Shooting
The garage was cold, and a torrential downpour was falling.

Gu Jingyi was pressed against the wet car door by Liu Zhimin. His Dior 2019 Spring/Autumn suit jacket was already soaked through by the artificial rain. It clung to his taut muscles, creating a striking visual effect.

The character played by Yoo Ji-min, driven by a reckless madness, grabbed his tie and forced him to lower his head and kiss her.

According to the script, she should have grabbed Gu Jingyi's boss and passionately kissed him.

But Liu Zhimin didn't stop there; she suddenly leaned closer. But just as their lips were about to touch, she turned her head, her hot breath brushing against Gu Jingyi's ear.

Then, in a whisper that only he could hear, he said, "Oppa, Wonyoung is still peeking."

Gu Jingyi glanced at Zhang Yuanying, whose face was ashen, sitting next to the monitor. "Oppa, is she prettier or am I?"

Gu Jingyi answered this question with a kiss.

If you were faced with a 15-year-old and a 19-year-old, you'd definitely choose the 19-year-old!

How could he possibly be interested in young girls?

Unexpectedly, Liu Zhimin thoroughly enjoyed it, wrapping her arms around Gu Jingyi's neck.

After all, among the two female leads in the music video, Liu Zhimin's character was more proactive and wilder. The one who asked, "Why are you wearing Pinru's clothes?"—the director only changed the kissing scene because he thought, "She's definitely a product of a big company." That acting skill, that ambition—it's so captivating!

Behind the monitor, a chair made a screeching sound. Zhang Yuanying suddenly stood up, her expression grim.

Her assistant quickly pulled her aside and whispered a lot of instructions in her ear.

Although the director didn't understand much, he could roughly guess what it was.

His gaze towards Gu Jingyi became even more mocking; no wonder he was called "Asia's Heartthrob." Not only were Chinese female celebrities fond of him, but his charm also remained a problem in South Korea.

Before they knew it, the scene was finished filming. The two people, however, were completely absorbed in it and hadn't separated yet.

The director didn't yell "Cut," stunned by the intense performance. On camera, Yoo Jimin resembled a wild beast locked in combat. She released his lips, then traced the lines of his wet neck downwards, finally pressing a heavy kiss onto his Adam's apple.

That wasn't tenderness, it was plunder, it was a declaration.

After an initial stiffness, Gu Jingyi's eyes suddenly darkened. As if some suppressed fire had been ignited, he took the initiative, his arms tightening around her waist, pressing her even deeper into his body. He lowered his head and kissed her again, the two entwined wildly in the torrential rain, as if trying to devour each other.

"Cut!!! That's awesome! Perfect!" the director shouted excitedly.

Liu Zhimin pulled away from Gu Jingyi's lips, panting. Her lips were swollen, but her eyes shone with an astonishing brightness. With the provocation of a victor, she looked down at Zhang Yuanying, whose face was deathly pale, not far away.

Gu Jingyi raised his hand to wipe the water from his lips, his chest heaving. His gaze towards Liu Zhimin was complex and unreadable, containing anger at being offended, lingering lust, and a hint of aroused interest.

"Do you like it that much?"

"Of course, Jimin loves Oppa the most!" Hearing Gu Jingyi speak, Liu Jimin smiled sweetly again, cooing sweetly. Even if it was only half-true, Gu Jingyi was amused by her eagerness.
Gu Jingyi chuckled softly and gently stroked Liu Zhimin's head with his palm.

Liu Zhimin looked up at Gu Jingyi with a shy, unspoken expression in her small, oval face.

The filming wrapped up in the evening, and Gu Jingyi treated all the staff to dinner after a long day of shooting.

Zhang Yuanying arrived at the venue but left early, citing illness, with tears in her eyes.

Liu Zhimin, on the other hand, acted as if nothing was wrong, chatting and laughing with the staff. However, her gaze kept drifting to the corner, watching Gu Jingyi, whose expression was distant and who seemed out of place amidst the chaos around him.

He looked a little tired, but his eyes were still bright.

After several rounds of toasts and hearty conversation, it was time to end the meal. Gu Jingyi picked up his coat and walked straight out.

Not long after, he heard footsteps behind him. Gu Jingyi did not stop, but only left a deep command, his tone carrying an undeniable sense of pressure: "Follow me."

Liu Zhimin's lips curled into a beautiful smile; she had finally succeeded.

She followed Gu Jingyi with a radiant smile, and together they disappeared into the night.

The floor-to-ceiling windows of the Four Seasons Hotel offer a view of the Han River at night. The lights in the room were off. The curtains weren't fully drawn, and moonlight streamed in.

Without a word, the fire was ignited the moment they stepped inside.

Gu Jingyi's pent-up emotions, which had been suppressed all day, finally erupted after being ignited and forcibly suppressed by Liu Zhimin on set.

She didn't believe in any senior-junior thing. If the arrogant SM Entertainment allowed its trainees to participate in "Produce 48," even Sakura wouldn't be able to compete with her, and Jang Won-young wouldn't stand a chance for the center position.

She only got the center position through connections, a bit of luck, and maneuvering. It's ridiculous that they gave her the cold shoulder before the shoot.

No matter how much SM Entertainment declines, even a fallen giant is still bigger than a horse.

An idol from a small or medium-sized company dared to act arrogantly in front of her, taking advantage of his previous debut.

Haha, what were you thinking?

When Gu Jingyi woke up again, the sun was already past noon. After taking a shower, he returned to China with Lin Ze.

With the trip to South Korea now over, the focus shifts to Gu Jingyi's album.

After traveling from South Korea to Shanghai, Gu Jingyi participated in several fan meetings and variety shows in conjunction with the drama "Ashes of Love".

He drove directly to Huace to begin working on the upcoming album.
