Top Chinese celebrity: Debuted from Running Man

……

……

In the quiet room, an ambiguous atmosphere filled the air, and the low hum of the air conditioner's outdoor unit became the only background noise.

Gu Qing lowered her eyes slightly, reached out and gently pulled out the restless, mischievous hand from under the pillow. Her fingertips inadvertently brushed against the other's delicate skin, causing both of them to pause.

He looked up at the person beside him, his tone calm and composed, and said earnestly, word by word, "Xiao Tong can like whoever she wants, why would I be angry?"

He was already handsome and gentle, and the slight helplessness in his eyes at this moment only added to his captivating tenderness.

Gu Qing turned her head to look at Ma Sichun beside her, whose cheeks were already faintly flushed, shook her head helplessly, and said earnestly:

"But you, Sister Ma, I feel like something's wrong with you right now. You're focusing all your attention on these random things. Shouldn't you find a boyfriend and settle down?"

"Is there?"

When Ma Sichun's hand was removed, she subconsciously coughed lightly to cover her embarrassment, the blush on her pretty face spreading all the way to the tips of her ears.

She quickly stole a glance at her cousin Wang Churan, who was sitting at the opposite table, completely unaware of what was happening. The little girl was focused on picking up food from her plate, her eyes fixed on the food, oblivious to the subtle undercurrents around her, looking completely innocent and carefree.

Confirming that she hadn't been discovered, Ma Sichun grew bolder again. The hand that had just been pulled away silently reached back in, her fingertips gently hooking, with a hint of cunning probing.

She leaned slightly closer to Gu Qing's ear, her warm breath brushing against his earlobe. Her voice was very low, with a hint of bold probing and a touch of half-joking: "Xu Yi, why don't you be my boyfriend?"

She paused, a hint of seriousness flashing in her eyes, and added softly, "I really like you."

"you……"

Gu Qing's expression changed slightly in an instant, and her originally steady breathing suddenly stopped, even becoming slightly disordered.

He pressed down hard on the pillow beneath him, pinning down the still-misbehaving hand, and his usually calm demeanor finally crumbled.

"Little Horse, you wish!"

A clear, slightly urgent, coquettish voice suddenly rang out.
Wang Churan had put down her chopsticks at some point. The girl, who had been sitting obediently, suddenly turned to the side, her soft body pressing tightly against Gu Qing's arm.
A pair of slender, fair hands quickly grabbed his wrist, which was pressing against the pillow, and pulled him into her arms without saying a word.

With her cheeks puffed out and her bright, confident face tilted upwards, she declared righteously, "There are plenty of people who like Brother Gu Qing, you'll have to wait in line!"

"Chu Ran..."

When his hand was suddenly grabbed, Gu Qing frowned, took a deep breath, and tried to gently pull his hand away, but the girl was holding him very tightly, and he dared not make any big movements.

Ma Sichun looked at her little cousin who was protecting Gu Qing, raised her eyebrows slightly, and smiled more broadly on her well-defined face, with a hint of blatant provocation.

She deliberately leaned forward, getting closer to Gu Qing, ignoring his somewhat murderous gaze, and said in a soft voice, "Chu Ran, you'd better hold your Gu Qing brother tight."

She blinked, her tone light and mischievous: "Otherwise, I'll just snatch him away right now."

"Hmph, you don't need to tell me!"

Wang Churan raised her chin slightly, wishing she could hug him even tighter.

The room gradually returned to quiet, with only the continuous hum of the air conditioner and the soft, rhythmic breathing of the three people.

Wang Churan blinked her thick, long eyelashes and leaned against Gu Qing. The light, clean scent emanating from him lingered around her nose, and she inexplicably felt her heart race. The air was filled with a sweet fragrance.

She raised her bright and beautiful face, looked up at Gu Qing who was so close to her, her eyes filled with innocent joy.

"Brother Gu Qing, why aren't you saying anything?"

Suddenly—

Wang Churan suddenly held her breath, her heart felt as if it were being gripped tightly by an invisible hand, and then began to pound uncontrollably the next second.

For some reason, Gu Qing suddenly turned her face to the side. The distance between the two was ridiculously close, so close that the tips of their noses were almost touching, and they could clearly feel each other's slightest breath.

Her usually clear and gentle eyes now seemed to be suppressing something, carrying a dark emotion, like an undercurrent surging in the deep sea.

The gaze was fixed on her, carrying an indescribable meaning.

Wang Churan's heart felt like it was about to jump out of her chest.

She was both surprised and delighted, flustered and at a loss, her eyes wide open, unable to look away.

"Chu Ran..."

Gu Qing spoke up.

Her voice was no longer the clear, melodious one she always was; it carried a hint of hoarseness, indifference, and allure. It had a unique, tingling, and pleasant quality, like a feather gently brushing against the eardrum.

Wang Churan subconsciously hummed in agreement.

"Why don't you go back first?"

Gu Qing's voice was soft and gentle, "I have something I need to discuss with your sister Si Chun, okay?"

"Okay... okay, Brother Gu Qing."

Wang Churan's mind went blank.

All she could do was nod.

"Well... I'll head back now."

She covered her flushed and burning cheeks with her hair, hurriedly got up, and ran away with her head down without even saying goodbye to Ma Sichun.

"pat-"

The crisp sound of the door closing echoed in the quiet room, strikingly clear and completely separating the outside world from the inside.

now,

Finally, only Gu Qing and Ma Sichun remained in the room.

The air seemed to freeze for a moment, and the previously hidden ambiguity was magnified and permeated every corner, making even breathing feel hot.

“Xu…Xu Yi…”

Ma Sichun finally felt guilty and quietly withdrew her fair hand, her fingertips burning hot. She stammered, "I...I...should I go back too?"

"Okay, you can go back now."

Gu Qing slowly closed her eyes, leaned back on the soft sofa, tilted her head slightly back, her long neck was smooth, her Adam's apple bobbed slightly involuntarily, and her exhalation was slightly heavier, carrying a bit of suppressed emotion.

His voice was hoarse, but still held a hint of restraint: "Next time... don't do it again."

The words had barely left his mouth—

Gu Qing felt her legs suddenly sink, and a soft and elastic sensation came from them.

Ma Sichun unexpectedly sat gently on his lap.

Next second,
He felt a moist, slightly itchy sensation on his Adam's apple, and his soft lips gently brushed against it.

Gu Qing suddenly opened her eyes.

A handsome yet delicate face was close at hand. Ma Sichun's eyes were glazed over, her flushed cheeks gently pressed against his neck, her breath unsteady.

She looked up at him, her voice low and husky yet carrying a hint of desperate boldness: "Xu Yi... how about this?"

……

On the other side, inside the elevator.

Wang Churan cupped her burning red cheeks in her hands, giggling sweetly the whole way. The corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn upwards. Her mind was filled with the scene of her close eye contact with Gu Qing just now, replaying it over and over again in her mind. It was so sweet that it almost overflowed.

"Oh dear, what would have happened if I had mustered up the courage to kiss him just now?"

She pouted her pink lips and muttered to herself, feeling annoyed and regretful for being so timid.

"If even a little horse can be secretly kissed, will my little brother be angry if I actually kiss him?"

She tilted her head and thought about it seriously. The more she thought about it, the less likely it was to happen. She couldn't help but affirm to herself, "It shouldn't be, right? I'm a great beauty after all. My little brother definitely wouldn't want to be angry."

"I'm so angry! Wang Churan, Wang Churan, how could you be such a coward?!"

She stomped her foot lightly and patted her cheek in annoyance.

quickly,

She comforted herself, her eyes crinkling into a smile: "It's okay, it's okay. At least my brother is very gentle with me! Much better than he is with Xiao Ma!"

Just thinking about Gu Qing's gentle gaze and his alluring voice made Wang Churan's heart feel sweet, as if she were soaking in a honey pot.

"I'll definitely be my little brother's leading lady someday! Let Xiao Ma be so envious!"

The elevator doors opened slowly with a "ding".

Wang Churan skipped and hopped out, grinning foolishly the whole way.

……

The next day, noon.

The blazing sun hung high in the sky, and the bright sunlight slanted in through the gaps in the curtains of the hotel corridor, casting dappled patterns of light on the carpet.

"Little Ma! What have you been doing?!"

This was the fifth time Wang Churan had called Ma Sichun, and the sixth time she had knocked on her door, her voice filled with anxiety and confusion.

at last,

From a distance, she saw Maschun slowly limping towards her on the soft carpet of the hotel corridor.

His gait, his awkward and weak posture, made him look like a penguin that had just finished a super marathon, looking both pathetic and funny.

"Why aren't you in your room? Where have you been?!"

Wang Churan immediately ran over and helped her up with concern, but something suddenly popped into her mind...
Her pretty face turned pale instantly, and her fingertips trembled slightly uncontrollably.

Her eyes widened, her voice trembling slightly: "You didn't... last night..."

What are you thinking?!

Ma Sichun quickly slapped her hand away, her cheeks flushed with a strange blush, her eyes holding an indescribable languor and charm, both embarrassed and annoyed, "Am I that unreserved?!"

She scoffed and began to lie with a straight face: "It's all because of Xu Yi! He insisted on dragging me to exercise first thing in the morning! I've been running with him until now, my legs are about to break!"

"That scared me to death..."

Wang Churan quickly patted her chest, let out a long sigh of relief, and her paleness instantly faded. "So you guys went to the gym to work out. I thought..."

She no longer had the heart to criticize Ma Sichun; she was filled with lingering fear.

Instead,
She leaned closer curiously, her eyes sparkling, and asked with a gossipy look, "Is Brother Gu Qing in good shape? Does he have abs?"

"How would I know?"

Mas rolled his eyes at her, a hint of barely perceptible shyness flashing in his eyes, and teased her deliberately, "If you want to see, just go and touch it yourself and you'll know."

"How could I dare..."

Wang Churan stuck out her tongue, obediently took Ma Sichun's arm, and carefully supported her, "How long have you been running? Why are your legs so tired?"

Ma Sichun's pretty face flushed again. She subconsciously lowered her head, bracing herself against the wall with one hand, and staggered forward. Her brows and eyes were filled with shame and fear, and even her voice became stammering: "No...not long..."

She paused, her voice barely audible, "From the time I opened my eyes... it should have been... two hours?"

"Huh? Two hours?!"

Wang Churan's eyes widened instantly, her face filled with shock and disbelief as she stared at her. "Running for two hours? How did you do that? That's amazing!"

"How did you do that..."

Ma Sichun's voice grew softer and softer, almost inaudible, her cheeks burning hot as she mumbled indistinctly, "Just lie down!"

"Lying down?"

Wang Churan looked puzzled, tilting her head and trying to figure it out.

How can you run while lying down? That's so weird!
Completely bewildered, she helped Ma Sichun slowly into the room, the words "running while lying down" echoing repeatedly in her mind, unable to figure out the key to it.

……

Two o'clock in the afternoon.

The entire crew is ready and about to depart for the press conference. Staff members are coming and going, busy but orderly.

"Brother Gu Qing! Over here!"

Wang Churan stood by the car, looking around intently, her eyes fixed on the entrance. As soon as she saw Gu Qing, she waved excitedly, her little face full of joy.

She was suddenly struck by the fact that Gu Qing seemed even more handsome and cheerful today than yesterday. His whole demeanor seemed to have completely unfolded, exuding a youthful vigor. The gentleness in his eyes was even more pronounced, making him even more captivating and impossible to look away from.

"Chu Ran, good afternoon." Gu Qing smiled and nodded politely to the staff who greeted him as he walked towards them with a relaxed gait.

He glanced around but didn't see another familiar figure. He asked in confusion, "Why are you alone? Where's Sichun?"

"Sister Sichun said she ran with you all morning and was so tired that she's resting in the car now."

Wang Churan pointed to the extended luxury car next to her.

As they were talking, she immediately stepped forward, affectionately tugged at Gu Qing's sleeve, and said in a soft, coquettish voice, "Brother Gu Qing, come on! Let's ride in the same car!"

She pulled Gu Qing along quickly to the extended luxury car, reached out and opened the door with a "whoosh," her movements light and lively.

Gu Qing glanced into the car and immediately saw Ma Sichun leaning back in her seat, looking utterly dejected.

She slumped in her seat, looking weak and as if she were a useless person, not even bothering to lift her eyelids.

"Sister Sichun! Look who's here!"

Wang Churan got into the car first, then immediately turned around, stretched out her slender, fair hand, and carefully placed it above the car door, saying, "Brother Gu Qing, be careful! Don't bump your head!"

The tone of voice and the movements were gentle and attentive, as if the speaker were caring for a fragile, rare work of art.

When faced with a top-tier handsome guy like Gu Qing, a girl's protective instincts will always unconsciously overflow.

"Alright, Chu Ran, I'm a grown man, do you still need to pull me along?" Gu Qing said, shaking her head helplessly, both amused and exasperated.

But seeing the girl's stubborn and persistent look, he couldn't bear to refuse her. He gently held her soft fingertips, bent down, and stepped into the car.

The fingertips are slender and soft, with a warm touch unique to young girls.

Gu Qing got into the car and naturally sat down next to Ma Sichun. She turned her head slightly, her eyes filled with a tender concern, and asked softly, "Are you feeling better?"

Then, with a hint of a reprimand in his tone, he asked, "Will you be naughty again?"

"I won't be naughty anymore... I was wrong..."

Ma Sichun let out a weak groan, tilted her head slightly to the left, and leaned it against Gu Qing's shoulder, her voice full of grievance, "Xu Yi, are you even human? How can you be so powerful..."

"Little Ma! You insisted on running with Brother Gu Qing, and you lost and got tired, and you still blame him!"

Wang Churan, sitting opposite, immediately stood up for him, looking indignant.

"Yes, yes, you're right."

Ma Sichun looked up at her with a half-smile.

"What kind of look is that?!" Wang Churan felt inexplicably annoyed.

What's with that smug look on the victor's face?!
"A little bit!"

Ma Sichun deliberately tightened her grip on Gu Qing's arm, continuing her blatant provocation, "You little girl, aren't you envious? Xu Yi is right next to me!"

"You—!" Wang Churan puffed up her cheeks in anger, her fists clenching tightly, yet she was helpless.

"Alright, why are you always teasing Chu Ran?" Gu Qing helplessly withdrew her hand and gently advised, "You should rest first and stop fooling around."

He casually took out his phone, the screen lit up, and a new message popped up.

"Xu Yi, my whole body aches, and I can't sleep at all."

Ma Sichun remained leaning on his shoulder, humming softly through her nose, completely ignoring her cousin's increasingly disgusted expression.

She curiously peeked over to Gu Qing, staring at his phone screen: "Xu Yi, who are you chatting with? You seem so focused."

“Senior Sister Liu,” Gu Qing replied casually, her fingertips lightly tapping on the screen.

"Who is Senior Sister Liu?" Ma Sichun asked with a puzzled look.

“Liu Tianxian,” Gu Qing said without looking up, her tone natural. “In your circle, how could you not know her?”

"A fairy goddess?!"

Wang Churan was so shocked that she almost stood up from her seat, her eyes wide open and her face full of astonishment.

She was unexpectedly chosen to enter the entertainment industry because she looks somewhat like Liu Yifei.

The production team of "Oh My General" clearly borrowed the look of Little Dragon Girl, intending to ride on the popularity of the fairy sister.

And Liu Yifei is the female idol she has admired since childhood.

But when Ma Sichun heard that the person Gu Qing was chatting with was Liu Tianxian—

Her initially high spirits instantly plummeted, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared.

She silently pulled her head back, a faint sense of isolation rising within her.

Liu Yifei... she's a top-tier celebrity, a goddess with unparalleled beauty and charisma. How could I possibly compare?

Let alone Liu Yifei, even compared to senior actresses like Zhao Liying, Liu Shishi, and Jing Tian, ​​she seems far inferior.

Yesterday, she was blinded by lust and pounced on him. This morning, when she came to her senses, she was suddenly shocked to realize how big the gap was between herself and Gu Qing.

but,

Regardless of whether she wins or loses compared to these people, she at least gained something, right?

the other side,
Gu Qing sent a voice message into her phone:

"Senior Sister Liu, you should give up on the game track. It's not suitable for you. Just focus on your acting and don't flop again."

After sending the message, he shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself: This guy, if I remember correctly, isn't he filming on set right now?
Where do they find so much time to constantly post news about themselves trending on social media and then shamelessly come here to mock themselves?

He put down his phone and was about to turn around to ask about Ma Sichun's health when he saw Wang Churan right in front of him.

The little girl stared at him with bright, sparkling eyes, her face filled with adoration. Her radiant face and features did indeed bear a resemblance to Liu Tianxian.

Seeing the joy in her eyes, Gu Qing couldn't help but smile gently and asked softly, "Chu Ran, do you really like Senior Sister Liu?"

"I love it! I love it so much!"

Wang Churan nodded vigorously, like a well-behaved chick pecking at rice, her face serious. "Fairy Sister is my goddess! I've liked her since I was little!"

"You wait."

Gu Qing immediately raised her phone, "I'll take a picture of you and send it to her. I always feel that you and she look a lot alike."

He casually snapped a photo of Wang Churan, whose cheeks were slightly flushed with shyness. The girl in the photo had delicate features and a touch of shy charm, and she did indeed have some of the charm of Liu Yifei in her youth.

Gu Qing sent the photo over and added, "I'll get her autograph for you later."

at the same time,

Inside a dressing room at a film and television base.

"You're the one who threw the ball! Your whole family threw the ball!!"

Liu Tianxian was touching up her makeup at her vanity when she received a voice message from Gu Qing. She gritted her teeth in anger and muttered curses under her breath. Her usually ethereal appearance suddenly became more down-to-earth.

Suddenly, my phone vibrated slightly again.

She looked down and saw a photo sent by Gu Qing.

The photo shows a young and beautiful girl, bright and lovely, with a hint of shyness in her eyes. Upon closer inspection, she does indeed resemble me somewhat.

Gu Qing added a sentence: Senior sister, is this your sister?

"what?"

Liu Tianxian paused for a moment, then carefully examined the photo.

There are quite a few female celebrities in the industry who debut under her name and look similar to her, so she's used to it and doesn't care much.

What interests her more is Gu Qingfa's intention in taking this photo.

Liu Tianxian narrowed her eyes, her fingers flying across the keyboard as she typed, her tone teasing and playful: "What's so special about it, Junior Brother?"

"If you have a crush on your senior sister, just say so. Why bother using me as a substitute?"

send.

Soon, the reply came in with two words: "Hehe".

Liu Tianxian couldn't help but laugh when she saw those two words, and continued typing to tease him: "Your senior sister found out your little scheme?"

"That's how little boys are, don't be shy, your senior sister understands."

"I have many photos of me from when I was Little Dragon Girl. Would you like to see them?"

"Sweetie, call me 'sister,' and I'll send you one, one for each time you say it."

This time, the only reply was three words: "You're crazy."

Liu Tianxian couldn't hold back any longer when she saw those three words, and burst out laughing. Her hearty laughter echoed in the dressing room, and she even accidentally showed her gums, showing no concern for her fairy-like image.

Her assistant, looking at her with a headache, reminded her, "Sis, mind your image! Filming is about to start!"

"It's another beautiful day!"

Liu Tianxian smiled broadly, her eyes crinkling, clearly in a very happy mood.

After teasing the handsome young man, she felt refreshed and full of energy, and even the scenes she was about to film seemed much easier.

After laughing enough, she composed herself and said seriously, "Okay, I won't tease you anymore."

"I really want to see my senior sister visit the set of 'Eternal Love'! I'll be waiting for you. Let her ride on your coattails."

After sending the message, she put down her phone and waited patiently for a reply.

But after waiting for a while, the phone still didn't respond.

"Sissi, get ready to film!" the director's voice came from outside.

"Coming, coming!" Liu Tianxian immediately put down her phone, stood up, straightened her clothes, and strode towards the film set.

……

The next day.

Liu Tianxian lay on the soft bed, suffering from severe morning grumpiness, feeling drowsy and irritable.

She squinted, slowly opened her phone, intending to browse trending topics to clear her head and kill time.

But when her eyes fell on the trending topics list, everything went black, and her morning grumpiness instantly soared to its peak.

#Gu Qing makes a surprise appearance in "Oh My General" to support Ma Sichun's wonderful friendship with Zuo Er#
#Ma Sichun says: I was very happy to kiss Gu Qing during filming#
#Who is the girl next to Gu Qing?#
She just glanced at these trending topics and didn't pay them any attention.

But when she saw the one that was firmly hanging at the top of the trending searches, she was so angry that her fingers trembled slightly, and she couldn't believe her eyes.

[Finally! Yang Mi and Gu Qing will be starring together in "Eternal Love," a collaboration between a popular goddess and a heartthrob!]

Liu Tianxian stared wide-eyed, reading each word over and over again several times, wondering if she was still half asleep and had misread it.

"Mimi?! Gu Qing?!"

"A collaboration... 'Three Lives Three Worlds'?!"

"How did these three names get linked together?!"

She stared at the screen in disbelief, completely stunned.

I clearly invited you to visit the set of my drama "Three Lives Three Worlds"—

I didn't ask you to go to the set of my best friend Yang Mi's "Eternal Love"!

Liu Tianxian felt her morning grumpiness completely erupt, a tightness in her chest that she couldn't let go of.

She took a screenshot through gritted teeth and quickly sent a message to Gu Qing, her tone full of accusation: "Where did you go to visit the set?!"

After sending Gu Qing,

She immediately sent Yang Mi a series of messages, both angry and confused: "MiMi, when did you take on this script?!"

"Also, how did you manage to invite Gu Qing over? Didn't he say he was unavailable?!"

After sending the message, she threw her phone down hard beside her pillow and buried her head in the soft blankets.

"Ah ah ah ah ah--"

A muffled scream came from under the covers.
