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

"What?" Yu Ci exclaimed in shock.

Gu Qiushui looked at Yu Ci and shoved the man who had been pulling her against the bathroom door with a backhand. Overpowering him with her height and the advantage of the wall slam, Gu Qiushui looked at Yu Ci's innocent and clear eyes and frowned, "This afternoon, you secretly...touched me several times."

"Touch hands, touch waist, touch back."

"Honestly," Gu Qiushui said, leaning against the door, slightly out of breath, "if you came here to seduce me, then you've already succeeded."

"because……"

Long, strong hands quickly lifted the white skirt, the softness and fine calluses rubbing against each other, making Yu Ci almost curl up! Gu Qiushui followed her waist and quickly touched the warm, soft spot he had been longing for.

"Autumn……"

The sudden force caused Yu Ci to let out a broken groan.

The scene immediately became extremely lively.

The moaning sounds aroused desire, yet also suppressed it. Gu Qiushui took a breath, remembering that this was a program, and managed to restrain herself. "You were very successful this morning, making me want to hold you down all the time."

Remainder: ...

"But, but I had something I wanted to tell you this morning." Crossing her arms, Yu Ci's eyes inexplicably reddened. "I wrote words on you!"

She, she didn't do anything to seduce anyone!

"Writing? What happened?"

"This is what happened..."

After explaining the whole story, Yu Ci, who had been tough for a while, became timid again. "I didn't want to do this, but Sister Qiu Shui, you don't know! That person is really annoying!"

"He actually tried to use some pathetic character to keep me away from you; it's obvious he's after you..."

She spoke for a long time, but Gu Qiushui was not frightened by the so-called consequences; instead, she felt like laughing.

"So, he already knows our little secret, huh?"

"Yes, it is."

"Is that what you're worried about?"

"Ah."

Thinking of how anxious the little fool had been all morning, Gu Qiushui sighed and couldn't help but pinch her cheek.

Yu blew air into his face and puffed out his cheeks. "I'm afraid that Teacher Cheng will go around spreading rumors..." For an actor, reputation is extremely important.

"It's alright." Touched by the concern on Yu Ci's face, Gu Qiushui opened the bathroom door and pulled Yu Ci out. "Didn't I tell you last time that as long as we're not caught on camera, you can do whatever you want?"

The woman glanced sideways, her gaze earnest.

"Do whatever you want, don't make yourself suffer for my sake."

Looking at Gu Qiushui's face, etched with deep affection and sharpness, Yu Ci felt as if his whole body was burning up.

"it is good……"

"I know."

Chapter Seventy-Nine: Goodnight, Little Coward

It was a little late when I left the restroom.

The two straightened their clothes and went back to the hall together.

When Guan Yu saw the two of them return, she looked up and said, "You're finally back. If you hadn't come back, we would have finished eating."

Pulling out the chair next to the round table, Gu Qiushui led Yu Ci to sit down. She jokingly replied, "If you've really finished eating, then don't eat anymore. After all, Yu Ci and I are both actresses, and dieting is normal for us."

"Look at what you're saying." Guan Yu glanced at Yu Ci and Gu Qiushui. "They're so thin, and they still want to lose weight. What are we fat people supposed to do?"

A burst of laughter and chatter quickly brought the whole dining scene to life.

Originally, the footage was cut to this point, ending with the scene of a meal, but—

Cheng Xu intervened.

"It's strange, really." Cheng Xu said to himself, then turned to look at Gu Qiushui, "I've noticed that Qiushui and Yu Ci are always inseparable."

"Having filmed variety shows for so long, it seems like I see you all standing together everywhere."

"Is that so?" Gu Qiushui responded to Cheng Xu's provocation with a nonchalant smile, "Then I've suddenly discovered something very strange as well."

Cheng Xu raised an eyebrow. "What strange thing?"

"Teacher Cheng, you and the other three male guests on the show are inseparable."

"..."

Cheng Xu made a veiled reference to Gu Qiushui Baihe, so she made a veiled reference back, saying that Cheng Xu was gay.

Who's more ruthless?

Gu Qiushui and Yu Ci standing together could at least be considered a good-looking couple: a female boss and a cowardly employee. But Teacher Cheng with the three male guests... tsk, this old man must be very rich.

If they disagreed, they would start a fight, but they couldn't afford to completely ruin their relationship. Cheng Xu could only chuckle twice and say, "It's been a few years. Qiu Shui has become more and more successful in the industry, and her words are much more pleasant than before."

"Thank you for your kind words, Professor Cheng." Gu Qiushui picked up the bottle of mineral water in front of her. "But I would also like to say to Professor Cheng, after seven years apart, you are even more radiant than before."

The two were clearly exchanging compliments, but for some reason, the onlookers felt... there was a murderous aura at the dinner table.

After finishing her meal, Guan Yu glanced around at the people on both sides of her body, then looked at Yu Ci, who was sitting silently to the side, seemingly lost in thought, before her brows furrowed slightly.

-

in the afternoon.

We had already strolled along the river in the morning, so in the afternoon we rented a small boat and started playing in the water.

It was supposed to be a water activity, but it was really just a group of eight people chatting on a small boat. Since this scene only appears briefly on TV, we didn't stay on the water for long before heading back home.

That night.

Yu Ci and Gu Qiushui had just finished eating downstairs.

"Sister Qiushui, Cheng Xu seems really arrogant..."

"It's nothing." Gu Qiushui rubbed Yu Ci's head. "Don't think about him. I'll show you something interesting when we get back."

"What?" Yu Ci looked up, his attention immediately diverted.

Gu Qiushui took out her phone and tapped the screen a few times with her slender fingers. Soon, the Sina Weibo page appeared. She handed the phone to Yu Ci and said, "Look at this."

"I watch this to pass the time when I'm bored. Do you want to check it out too?"

The view was a sea of ​​color.

Gu Qiushui is actually... looking at this? A comic book?

Yu paused, then became curious and looked closely—

!!!

"you you you--"

"So calm down." Having already entered her room, Gu Qiushui glanced at the hallway, slammed the door shut, and sat down on the soft sofa with Yu Ci. "After this variety show aired, the whole country has been hyping up our CP (couple pairing)."

As she spoke, Gu Qiushui laughed, "Just because Cheng Xu knows, you react like this." She raised an eyebrow, her whole demeanor suddenly becoming a bit roguish, "Then from now on, everyone will be talking, everyone will be tagging you, aren't you going to—"

"Are you so embarrassed?"

"I, I..." Yu Ci muttered softly, "I won't be so embarrassed."

"is it?"

"...At most, I'll just roll around in bed a couple of times."

"Oh."

Gu Qiushui suddenly opened her arms, "Then let's roll around a few more times tonight and roll into my arms."

"Sister Qiushui, why are you so..." fierce today.

"Why?" She stood up, took a few steps to Yu Ci, and grabbed her chin with her hand. "Because you've been so nervous and pitiful. When I see you like this, I feel... something."

"Alright, don't be nervous. Your boss is going to call Cheng Xu now." Gu Qiushui pinched Yu Ci's cheek. "I promise, after the call, he'll act like nothing happened today."

"is it?"

"Yes, otherwise I'll fight here."

"Then you hit him."

The woman in front of him chuckled softly and picked up her phone with a sigh.

Yu Ci didn't really know why she was so nervous... she just regretted saying those words today.

In today's entertainment industry, even if a female celebrity reveals her boyfriend, she will experience a massive drop in her fanbase. If it's revealed that she has a girlfriend—

That would have been an absolute disaster.

"Hello, is this Teacher Cheng?"

"It's nothing, I just have something to tell you."

"Trying to shut you up with money? No, I'm just here to tell you something."

"Teacher Cheng, you've been cultivating a senior and team leader persona for years. Do you still remember how you got that teacher role when you first joined the crew? You sold your girlfriend to the director to get the part. Do you remember those things?"

"What do you want!" Cheng Xu gripped his phone.

"Nothing much, I just hope that Teacher Cheng can control himself." Gu Qiushui lowered her voice, "and stop thinking about creating a CP (couple pairing) between you, that's all."

There was a long silence on the other end, before someone finally said "okay" and hung up.

Looking up, Gu Qiushui noticed that Yu Ci had been staring at her.

"..."

"What's wrong? Why are you staring at me like that?"

"It's nothing, I just suddenly felt that you're really cool, Sister Qiushui!"

Gu Qiushui turned her head and smiled, "Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. Let's continue discussing the comic issue we just talked about."

"That comic—"
