Shock! I became the protagonist of a female-oriented novel.

"It seems so. I didn't even notice until you mentioned it, Sister Qiushui."

In short, Gu Qiushui couldn't help but laugh when she saw Yu Ci raise his hand to touch his neck.

But before she could even laugh, Shen Teng had already returned with Miss Qi.

Since these scenes are basically for Miss Qi's benefit, Gu Qiushui and Yu Ci are, to some extent, supporting characters.

Supporting roles are easy to get by.

"Come on, let's take a picture of the hot spring scene."

"Enter from the left, put on a towel, and go straight in. When you feel the water covering your clothes, you're good to go."

"Okay, 3, 2, 1!"

Gu Qiushui is definitely fine with this scene.

Her long hair was tied up, with a strand hanging down to her collarbone. Her steps were clearly straight, but just looking at her back, her slender waist swayed gently, making her incredibly beautiful.

In that instant, Yu Ci felt that the person in front of him was not Gu Qiushui, but Jiang Rong.

However, this feeling slowly disappeared the moment Jiang Rong entered the water.

The woman leaned against a corner of the hot spring, her arms gently outstretched. "Qingqing, come down too."

"This hot spring is very famous, and soaking in it is good for your health. Oh, we're all girls, what are you afraid of? Come on down!"

“But, but Miss…”

"No buts, get down!"

"Get off, we've already bought the tickets, is it a waste of money?"

Gu Qiushui once thought that she was very accomplished in acting.

Once you're in character, you have to wait for the director to yell "cut" before you can break character.

This skill was her ticket to fame in the directing world since she was 19. This skill is also the guarantee that she has been able to refuse unspoken rules and hype all these years and become a powerful actress.

Gu Qiushui spent her youth diligently engraving this idea into her very being.

But today, this skill... it's not working.

She is indeed very young.

After seeing Yu Ci's body under his clothes today, Gu Qiushui understood what had happened.

Her skin was snow-white with a faint pink tinge. Her collarbones were neither too straight nor too prominent, but just right, giving her a delicate and slender appearance without being overly delicate.

Even though she was wearing clothes underneath, Gu Qiushui could still see her waist and legs through the clothes.

Surely... it's within reach.

"Miss, I'm coming down!"

Warm water covered her body, and Yu Ci, following Gu Qiushui's instructions, slowly moved her back to the front of the camera.

At this moment, Gu Qiushui was supposed to deliver her lines.

but--

She didn't finish speaking.

The atmosphere suddenly seemed awkward. Yu Ci reached out and nudged her, "Miss?"

She then realized what was happening.

"So, how do you feel after getting down?" she asked with unbridled confidence. "Wasn't it comfortable?"

The steaming heat from the hot spring pool wafted onto their faces.

Yu Ci, her cheeks flushed, said, "Yes, it feels quite comfortable."

Looking at her like this, Gu Qiushui suddenly wanted to reach out—

"cut!"

"That's enough for this scene. Yu Ci, Qiu Shui, you can come up and change your clothes now. We'll film the next scene right away."

"..."

Fitting room.

"Sister Qiushui, are there just two more scenes, and then we'll be done filming this afternoon?"

"Hmm." Gu Qiushui covered her face with a damp towel soaked in cold water.

Yu Ci vaguely noticed that Gu Qiushui's mood didn't seem very high right now.

"Sister Qiushui, what's wrong?"

"what?"

"Why do I feel like you've been acting strangely ever since you came out of the hot spring?"

"..."

A flicker of confusion crossed the woman's eyes. The cold towel exuded a refreshing scent. "No, it's just that I got a little restless after going to the hot spring on such a hot day."

"Oh, I see."

"Okay, let's go back to filming."

Yu Ci was unaware that after she walked out of the fitting room, Gu Qiushui followed behind her.

They are two or three meters apart.

The latter looked at the former with the same gaze a lion in the jungle would give a deer on the savanna.

-

That night.

Yu Ci was tired from the long journey and filming, so he went to rest early.

Gu Qiushui couldn't sleep, so she just lay sprawled on the bed. Not long after, her WeChat suddenly beeped. She looked at it and saw that it was a message from director Shen Teng.

Shen Teng: Qiu Shui, I have something to share with you.

Gu Qiushui: ?

Shen Teng: Didn't I ask you to film that underwater video with Yu Ci this afternoon?

Gu Qiushui: What's wrong?

Shen Teng: I was surprised to find that Ms. Yu's back and side profiles are both beautiful! #video#

Shen Teng: Look at this part, it's almost too beautiful. Do you think if I used this bare back as a topic to stir up some controversy, would "The Beauty and the Wind" become a hot topic?

Gu Qiushui was about to reply when she saw Shen Teng say something to himself.

Shen Teng: Definitely. I'll go talk to Yu Ci about it tomorrow.

Gu Qiushui: ...

Gu Qiushui: No need to look for it anymore.

Shen Teng: Hmm?

Gu Qiushui: Edit this video, don't make it too long, just use it as a supporting scene, don't add any more scenes.

Shen Teng: What? It's just a backless dress, a little hype. She's in the entertainment industry, but she's not famous yet and doesn't have any scripts, right? This kind of hype will at least give her some work.

Gu Qiushui: No need. Although she's not famous yet, she doesn't need to hype herself up like this in the future.

As they were talking, Shen Teng sensed something was off.

Chapter Sixty: More Than Once She's Mine!

Shen Teng: Qiu Shui, I feel like you've been acting strange lately. Creating some hype is a mutually agreeable thing, and I'm not trying to create hype for you, so what's going on?

Where did that answer come from?

Gu Qiushui lay on the bed, her fingers flying across the keyboard.

Gu Qiushui: Although you're not firing me, Director Shen, the person you're planning to fire is one of my people.

These words were incredibly domineering.

These words made Shen Teng shudder!

A well-known director even exclaimed in surprise while wearing slippers next to a beer stall.

Shen Teng: ? ? ?

Shen Teng: Qiu Shui, please don't be like this... It's been so many years, and you haven't had a boyfriend, but...

Gu Qiushui looked at the message that suddenly popped up on the screen and was both amused and exasperated.

Gu Qiushui: Shen Teng, what are you thinking about?

Shen Teng: I didn't think about anything, it's just that you and Yu Ci are not a good match.

Gu Qiushui, who was about to explain, stopped abruptly at the top of the screen when she saw this line of text. The dim light illuminated her face. "Why isn't it appropriate?"

Shen Teng: Well, let's not even talk about the fact that you're all in the entertainment industry, cough cough... all girls, and you too. I don't need to tell you how much hardship you've endured to get to where you are today. If you two were really together, what would happen if it were dug up? You wouldn't be able to handle it, and neither would the little girl.

Every word and phrase is based on self-interest.

Gu Qiushui: What if it's not for profit, but for feelings?

Shen Teng: What did you say? The wind is too strong, I can't hear you. Feelings? Qiu Shui, you're an adult, what are feelings... think about it carefully yourself.

Gu Qiushui: I suddenly realized that Director Shen is a very heartless person.

Gu Qiushui: There's one more thing. When I said Yu Ci is my person, I meant that she has been signed by my studio, and we have already finalized her development plan, which does not include any hype.

Shen Teng: !!!

Shen Teng: Why didn't you say so earlier?

The other party retracted a message.
