This director lacks vision.

Chapter 389 Looking for a horse while riding a donkey – the donkey is gone.

Liu Yicun was also quite cunning; after rejecting Zhang Yimou, she called Jiang Yifeng.

Seeing that Jiang Yifeng didn't answer, he sent a WeChat message.

[Boss, Director Zhang Yi asked me to play the female lead, but I turned it down. Am I being a good girl?]

If you're busy, you don't have to reply to my messages, but I just wanted you to know about this.

Zhang Yi approached me twice, but I firmly refused both times. Don't let certain people instigate you.

[Oh no! I said the wrong thing again. Boss, you're so smart, nothing can escape your keen eyes!]

【I'm so tired from dance practice today. Look, the veins on the top of my foot are so prominent again. I went for a treatment, but it didn't help much. I consulted a doctor, who said I should massage them more.】

Taking advantage of Zhang Yimou's incident, Liu Yicun sent Jiang Yifeng several messages, along with various photos of her practicing dance.

There are also many close-up shots of footsteps.

Liu Jicun studied folk dance, which is not as damaging to the toes and feet as ballet.

Her feet are very well shaped, with smooth and beautiful contours and even and delicate bone structure. However, because she often uses her feet to exert force while dancing, she has some varicose veins on the instep, and the veins are quite noticeable.

This girl is not tall, and because she has a good relationship with Song Zuer, she belongs to the same school of Shu Chang Liu Yifei.

So I asked Shu Chang for advice on how to increase my personal charm.

Shu Chang initially won over Liu Jicun by virtue of her bound feet, which is why she gave him some pointers.

Liu Yicun now pays great attention to foot care and takes every opportunity to send Jiang Yifeng a series of beautiful photos.

At 6:30 p.m., Jiang Yifeng finished filming for the day and saw Liu Jicun's message, which made him laugh.

Tea is a talent, but it also depends on modeling.

Women who aren't good at modeling are much greasier than men when they try to be slick.

Models like Gao Yuanyuan, combined with post-natal expression management and training, are incredibly powerful when it comes to teasing.

Liu Jicun is now showing a similar trend.

Her appearance, her subtle expressions, and her charming way of speaking create a unique and distinctive look, which is also her unique femininity.

Jiang Yifeng could hear Liu Jicun's voice in his mind just by reading the text message.

Looking at the photos posted by Liu Jicun, Jiang Yifeng took a look and still liked the one of him doing the splits against the wall the most.

Girls who practice dancing have it so good; they're light, flexible, and easy to push over.

Although Liu Jicun is not tall, he has long limbs and a good body proportion. He is small and cute.

Jiang Yifeng thought for a moment. He had been eating too much rich food while playing the role of the Beast God lately, and wanted to try something more refreshing tonight.

Jiang Yifeng would occasionally go on dates with the company's youngest female employees.

After all, we raised this relationship ourselves, so we need to nurture it well.

So he called Liu Jicun.

"Have you eaten? If not, let's eat together tonight?"

Liu Yicun, who had already finished her nutritious meal, immediately said softly after receiving Jiang Yifeng's call, "I didn't eat enough for dinner. I've been eating the company's nutritious meals every day lately."

"I'm so miserable~ Boss, I want to eat something delicious~ Please take me with you!"

"No problem, I'll pick you up later."

"Really? That's great! Thank you, boss! Can I eat at a street food stall?"

"arrange."

"Waaaaah~ Boss, you're so kind~"

Liu Yicun is truly skilled at tea; she knows how to make appropriate requests, and once you satisfy them, she gradually gives you the emotional support you deserve.

This kind of emotional tug-of-war will be even more intense.

After hanging up the phone, Liu Jicun quickly took a shower and got dressed with the help of his assistant.

Soon, she chose a beige polo knit short-sleeved top, a pleated skirt, and pink high-heeled sandals.

With the addition of a natural-looking makeup look, she appears very fresh and sweet.

After getting dressed, Liu Qicun asked, "Where's my lip balm? Where's my lipstick case?"

The assistant said, "I just put it in your bag."

Hearing his assistant's words, Liu Qicun checked everything again before he felt relieved.

She bought Jo Malone lip balm, which has a mild flavor and is mainly used to keep lips moisturized and elastic, making kissing feel more slippery.

This was the choice Liu Ji made after researching numerous online guides.

Tian Qianwei pays more attention to the variety of flavors, using different tastes to enhance the flavor of kissing.

Liu Jicun didn't want to follow Xiaotian's old path, so he chose to focus on tactile sensation.

As for why she knew about Tian Qianwei, it was because she, Tian Qianwei, Song Zuer, and Wang Churan were in a WeChat group called "Let's wait and see".

This group was created by Wang Churan and Tian Qianwei, mainly to mock Liu Jicun and Song Zuer.

The joy of victory must be punctuated by the anger and sorrow of the opponent to make it complete.

Now that Tian Qianwei has won the battle between Tian and Song, and Wang Churan's six-month suspension period has ended, the second generation of Produce 101 is about to release an album.

The two of them created this group just to show off.

Especially these days, Tian Qianwei has been on the set of the TV series "The Legend of Chusen" and has had many intimate interactions with Jiang Yifeng.

She often posts photos in the group chat, which infuriates Song Zuer and Liu Jicun.

Song and Liu didn't leave the group either, they were just waiting for an opportunity to turn the tables. Song even changed the group's name to "We'll see".

After getting dressed, Liu Qicun walked to the roadside ahead of time.

Jiang Yifeng's car finally arrived after we waited for almost fifteen minutes at the entrance of the residential area.

The car door opened, and Liu Yicun took the initiative to sit next to Jiang Yifeng.

Jiang Yifeng held Liu Jicun's small hand, which was somewhat cold.

He asked, "Have you been waiting long? It's Friday night, there's a bit of traffic."

Liu Qicun smiled sweetly, leaned on Jiang Yifeng's shoulder, and said softly, "No, I just came down too."

This is a common tactic used by tea girls.

Even though she had waited for a while and her hands and feet were freezing cold, she deliberately said no, to arouse the man's heartache and protective instincts.

Liu Jicun's moves are purely instinctive and natural, with excellent male-attracting effects, but unfortunately he ran into Jiang Yifeng.

Upon hearing Liu Jicun's words, Jiang Yifeng simply patted her head and said, "Then next time you need to get off earlier, you can't park here."

Liu Qicun: "..."

Seeing the smile on Jiang Yifeng's face, Liu Qicun said coquettishly, "Boss, you know I'm afraid of you, yet you still keep teasing me~"

What are you afraid of me for?

"I'm afraid you'll punish me. You've punished me so many times already. Last time we went to live in the countryside, it was truly the worst experience of my life!"

"Then I'll punish you one more time."

"Waaaah, what punishment are you going to give me~"

"From now on, you're not allowed to speak without my permission. You can only communicate with me through facial expressions. This is a good opportunity to practice your facial expression control and improve your acting skills." Liu Qicun: "..."

Although he was punished again, Liu Jicun was actually very excited.

This is what she likes most about her boss.

If Jiang Yifeng treated her as an equal, in a sweet and loving way, Liu Yicun felt that something was missing.

It's precisely these kinds of punishment games that are the most exciting.

Moreover, not speaking can actually reduce shyness.

Liu Jicun quickly opened his small bag, took out lipstick and started applying it, a smug expression on his face.

Her intention to moisturize her lips was obvious, but Jiang Yifeng pretended not to understand.

"The weather is dry, so I should put on some lip balm. I'll put some on too."

Seeing Jiang Yifeng take out his lip balm, Liu Qicun became anxious. She pointed to her own lips and then to Jiang Yifeng's lips, meaning, "I'll moisturize your lips."

Jiang Yifeng ignored her and tried to grab the lip balm, but Liu Yicun pouted and took the initiative to step forward.

I must say, Jo Malone's lip balm is really good. It's smooth and rich, has a great feel, and even has a light honey scent.

Applying and rubbing this lipstick repeatedly feels like touching the softest part of a young girl in her prime; tasting it carefully reveals her passion and playfulness.

Liu Jicun felt dizzy and leaned against Jiang Yifeng in a daze.

She blurted out instinctively, "Boss, you're so mean, you make me take the initiative!"

Jiang Yifeng pinched Liu Jicun's cheek and said with a smile, "You've broken the rules with your words, so you'll have to accept a new punishment."

Liu Qicun's beautiful big eyes sparkled as she asked, "What punishment?"

"Let's test your dance skills. We'll find a suitable place later and you'll do the splits for ten minutes."

……

The punishments came in round after round, in a variety of ways, which added a lot of fun.

The date was a great success; Liu Qicun was completely captivated, and Jiang Yifeng was equally delighted.

It wasn't until 11 p.m. that Jiang Yifeng finally took Liu Jicun home.

On the way back, Liu Jiecun couldn't wait to post a few photos in the "Let's see" group and start showing off.

[@Wang Churen, Sister Chuan, your album is about to be released, right? I'm so envious of you. I'm still in my suspension period. Today, Director Zhang Yi asked me to play the female lead, but I refused.]

Sigh! I missed another opportunity for growth, but thankfully the boss compensated me~ I guess this is the boss's reward for a loyal employee~

My boss treated me to dinner today, but he was so mean! He wouldn't let me say a word the whole time and kept bullying me.

Jo Malone's lip balm is really good, have you guys tried it? @Wang Churen, you haven't tried it yet, right? What a pity!

Liu Jicun knew that his progress was not as good as Tian Qianwei's, so he focused his attacks on Wang Churan.

Wang Churan, who had just finished showering and was about to go to sleep, was so angry after seeing Liu Jicun's message that her pectoral muscles swelled up, and she couldn't sleep at all.

She kept typing, wanting to fight back, but kept deleting.

Because they couldn't find a way to retaliate.

Especially starting May 1st, the new album of the second generation of Produce 101 will be released.

Wang Churen is currently traveling around with her girl group for events, and she has no time to date her boss.

I have no choice but to swallow this anger for now.

Seeing that Wang Churan didn't reply, Liu Jicun wanted to send more messages.

Suddenly, his phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number, but Liu Jicun felt it was very familiar.

She glanced at Jiang Yifeng and pointed to her mouth.

Jiang Yifeng nodded and said, "You can talk on the phone."

Liu Qicun kissed Jiang Yifeng to express his gratitude before clicking to connect.

The other end started speaking; it was Zhang Yimou calling again.

Zhang Yimou did not give up on finding Liu Yicun to play the female lead. After discussing the script and the role with Zou Jingzhi tonight, he felt even more that Liu Yicun was suitable to play the role of the daughter.

So they called again, wanting to show their sincerity.

Liu Jicun said, "I told you I'm in my suspension period and can't take on any roles, so Director Zhang, please don't contact me again!"

After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone.

Jiang Yifeng patted Liu Jicun's head and said with a smile, "Director Zhang is a national-level director, so we should show him some respect."

Even if this collaboration doesn't work out, there might be another opportunity next time.

Fengxing Media has issued a public announcement regarding the punishment of Liu Jicun, so Jiang Yifeng will not go back on his word.

Liu Jicun cannot take on any acting roles during this period.

However, Fengxing Media will not prevent its artists from taking on roles with other companies, and no other company would have such an overbearing clause.

Anyway, with the management of the artist department and the brand of Fengxing Media, the company's artists won't suffer losses in other production crews.

As for poaching talent, Fengxing Media is not afraid at all. Artists are free to come and go as they please, as long as they pay enough breach of contract fees.

Hearing Jiang Yifeng's words, Liu Yicun shook her head and said firmly, "I just want to act in the movies you make, boss. Without you, I would never have won any Best Actress awards."

Liu Jicun took the opportunity to express his feelings.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yifeng said, "Once you finish the call, you can't speak anymore. This is another violation, and you'll have to be punished!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Jicun grinned, anticipating the new punishment game.

Zhang Yimou was once again rejected by Liu Yicun, and he was feeling annoyed.

But then she received a call from Zhang Yi: "Director Zhang, I have a new film coming up, and I need to prepare carefully for the new role."

I'm really sorry, I won't wait for your result!

The movie "One Second" has been in preparation for almost a month. In addition to looking for the female lead, Zhang Yimou has also auditioned a number of actors for the role of the male lead, Zhang Jiusheng.

Zhang Yi was one of them.

Zhang Yi was very satisfied with Zhang Yi's performance, considering him his first choice for the male lead.

However, he still wanted to keep his options open while looking for something better, so he never gave Zhang Yi a definite answer.

In Zhang Yi's opinion, Zhang Yi would definitely be willing to wait for a while for the sake of being the male lead in his movie.

After all, Zhang Yi wasn't famous yet at this time; he had only just started to make a name for himself. To get a role with Zhang Yi must have made him incredibly happy.

Unexpectedly, before he could even find a horse while riding a donkey, his own donkey disappeared first.

Zhang Yimou adjusted his emotions and quickly made a decision, saying, "How about this, you're the male lead for one second, let's work together properly."

I thought Zhang Yi would be happy to hear this news, but instead I heard a bitter laugh from the other end.

"Director Zhang, I'm really sorry this time, I've already accepted another role."

Zhang asked, "Whose play is it?"

Zhang Yi thought for a moment and realized there was no need to hide it, so he replied, "It's Director Jiang Yifeng's new film."

Zhang Yimou: "..."
