Fascination

Chapter 17

Views:

Gu Qingwu had no filming assignment in the morning. When he came to the crew, he was not in a hurry to change his costumes. He was waiting for the stylist in the dressing room. He took out his cell phone and blocked He Suichen, the fake monk with six impure roots. No matter how ferocious a person is, he is not as bad as him!

Just as I tapped my finger to confirm, I heard the stylist's assistant next to me call out, "Brother Du."

She looked up and saw Shen Xingdu standing outside the well-lit door, his slender figure shrouded in darkness. When she glanced at him from the side, the line of his jaw was impeccably perfect, yet extremely illusory. No wonder those fans who were infatuated with his male beauty were obsessed with him as if he were a man sent from heaven.

Shen Xingdu walked in with a lazy and cold look, and nodded to everyone in the dressing room: "Good morning, you've all worked hard today, please have a cup of coffee."

Behind him, two assistants held cartons and began to distribute hot coffee. The people present had a more than doubled impression of Shen Xingdu. After all, he treated them to dinner last night and coffee this morning. The benefits of being a male god were really great.

After everyone had a cup of coffee, Shen Xingdu took two cups from the carton, walked casually to Gu Qingwu, and handed him a cup.

He didn't seem to be trying to strike up a conversation, so he casually asked, "I heard you were seriously injured while hanging on the wire last night?"

As he finished speaking, when Gu Qingwu raised her slender white wrist to take the coffee, a faint smell of medicinal wine reached her nostrils. The smell of the assistant director's ancestral medicinal wine was very pungent. Shen Xingdu had experienced this before when he was hanging on wires.

And the faint fragrance on Gu Qingwu's body was obviously from the bottle he was using.

Shen Xingdu didn't expect to get a thank you from Gu Qingwu, so he chuckled lazily.

To Gu Qingwu, this sounded like someone laughing at her. She frowned slightly and made a serious suggestion: "Shen Xingdu."

"Um?"

"I noticed that you've been in the entertainment industry for a long time. This is it." The woman pointed at the spot on her head with her slender white fingers and continued, "Do you want to go take a look?"

"… "

Shen Xingdu left with a cold face, along with the cup of coffee he brought for her.

Gu Qingwu didn't drink a single drop, but it didn't matter. He picked up the hot water next to him, drank it slowly, and continued reading the script.

The parties involved didn't take this little episode seriously, but somehow the version of events that happened between Shen Xingdu and Gu Qingwu in the dressing room spread.

The rumor was so outrageous that half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

Even Luo Yuan couldn't stand it any longer: "There are people out there who say that you added drama and brought your own screenwriter to the crew to modify the script, changing the ending of Regent Shen Xingdu to one where he loved you but couldn't get you, and died with hatred. Then Shen Xingdu couldn't accept this weird plot, so he rushed to the dressing room to have a big fight with you... and finally threw the cup and left."

Gu Qingwu sat in front of the makeup mirror, soaking a cotton pad in makeup remover. She paused for a second, then turned around and said, "This is outrageous."

"Also, apart from filming, you and Shen Xingdu have zero private communication about this. His female fans are relieved, but it also gives those with ulterior motives the opportunity to discredit you." Luo Yuan opened his phone, searched for a keyword at random, and showed her the content posted by the marketing account.

—"Let me tell you some gossip today. Gu Huaping's acting skills are terrible. She was filming a wall scene with wires, which delayed the production schedule and made the entire crew work overtime. Then she angered the prince of Hengcheng Entertainment and had coffee splashed in her face in public. It was her manager who warned the staff on the scene not to spread the news and confiscated their phones to delete the photos."

Under the Weibo post, a popular comment popped up saying, "Gu Huaping has a ranking problem. She always thinks that her ranking is the only way to prove whether she is popular or not. Previously, many high-quality crews and resources approached her to act, but because she couldn't get the first place, she directly said she would not cooperate."

"Hahaha, Gu Huaping has the capital. I advise her not to follow the example of a certain female star next door and go under the knife. Otherwise, without this beautiful face, she will be in trouble in a minute."

"Who else doesn't know? Gu Huaping has an untold amount of capital behind her. Compared to the female artists in the same company, as a newcomer, she is paired with big names in the industry. Her resources are truly enviable. If you ask me, forcing support will lead to divine punishment. She should just be honest and stop trying to get more roles all the time."

"What is Gu Huaping afraid of? There are rumors that she had already recognized more than a dozen godfathers before she entered the entertainment industry. Tsk tsk, she is already frigid... She also wants to establish a pure goddess persona with zero scandals in the domestic entertainment industry."

"Is it so exciting? I can look at Gu Huaping's face for ten thousand years without getting tired of it. The happiness of a big boss is beyond the understanding of ordinary people like me."

Gu Qingwu glanced at the Weibo posts with her curled eyelashes, and continued to remove her makeup. She said to Luo Yuan in a calm tone, "Sort out these marketing accounts that spread rumors, and send lawyers' letters to each of them one by one, no matter the cost."

As soon as these words fell, Yi Xiaorong happened to come in and heard the last sentence. The corners of her lips raised with a smile, always gentle: "To attract traffic, marketing accounts nowadays can make up anything, but they are all deleted immediately after seeing the lawyer's letter."

Yi Xiaorong plays the role of peacemaker in the crew. Although she is a movie queen, she has no airs and seems to have a good relationship with everyone, as close as a sister.

Gu Qingwu's only contact with her was in the play. After removing her makeup, she gave her a signature smile in return.

Luo Yuan interrupted without leaving any trace, helping Gu Qingwu deal with interpersonal relationships: "Teacher Yi's light green skirt today really suits her skin tone."

Yi Xiaorong stood in front of her own dressing table, smiling: "Thank you."

She vaguely realized that Gu Qingwu was not someone easy to approach, so she didn't want to stay any longer and make herself bored. She took the thermos and left.

Afterwards, Gu Qingwu removed her makeup and changed into going-out clothes, apparently planning to go out and have fun while there were no night scenes.

Luo Yuan asked her: "Miss, are you going on a date with Mr. He? You don't even put on some makeup..."

Gu Qingwu turned around and gave him a look that showed understanding:

"I have blocked He Suichen for half a month. Who said I have to go out just to date him?"

Luo Yuan: “…”

Really, we've already slept together, so there's nothing wrong with admitting it.

-

At around seven in the evening, the lights began to come on in the bustling city center of Sicheng.

Gu Qingwu called a luxury online taxi and arrived at the high-end five-star restaurant on time. He had made a reservation in advance and was politely led by the waiter to table number 13 by the floor-to-ceiling window.

A woman as cool and bright as her would be the focus wherever she went, easily attracting the attention of the men present. Soon, they saw her walking in high heels to sit in front of another incredibly beautiful woman.

From their looks to the way they dressed, they were obviously very expensive women, so no one dared to approach them.

"Baby, are you surprised to see me return home?"

The one who said this was Gu Qingwu's good friend Jiang Dianying, who was born into a wealthy family but was unwilling to follow her family's example and study financial management. She dropped out of college and ran away. Now, with her own superior resources, she has become an international top model who is thriving in the fashion industry.

Gu Qingwu’s female friends can be counted on one’s fingers. Jiang Dianying is one of them with whom he can chat easily. Even though they haven’t seen each other for two or three years, they don’t feel strange or unfamiliar.

"I'm so surprised. You've been modeling for 365 days a year. How do you have time to go back to Sicheng?"

Jiang Dianying asked the waiter to serve the wine. When she smiled, her eyebrows and eyes became clearer and brighter. "My agent, who holds all the power, is optimistic about the domestic market recently and has approved me to return to China to develop my career... Honey, let's not talk about career for now. I want to ask you about someone!"

"… people?"

"man!"

Gu Qingwu picked up the cup with her fair hands, took a sip of wine to calm herself down, and said while clearing her throat, "Did you have a romantic encounter as soon as you returned to China?"

"Baby, you are getting more and more talkative. The word 'romantic encounter' really touches my heart."

To make a long story short, Jiang Dianying fainted due to hypoglycemia on the plane when she was returning to China, and was taken care of by a gentle and gentlemanly man. She fell in love with him at first sight, but he did her a favor without leaving his name and disappeared after getting off the plane.

"I only know his name is Cheng Shu... Alas, I met my Mr. Right by chance, I really want to see him again."

Gu Qingwu listened to the whole process, but her focus was: "Don't fall in love yet. What if this Cheng Shu is married? After all, a gentle, mature man who takes good care of women may have been married and had children long ago."

"No."

Jiang Dianying is a clever little girl, she said firmly: "I see he is not wearing a wedding ring."

Gu Qingwu nodded, but unfortunately, among the wealthy investors she had met, there was no one named Cheng Shu.

Jiang Dianying herself didn't really count on Gu Qingwu, and couldn't help but sigh: "Tell me, if I put up missing person notices all over the airport, will I be able to find him?"

Gu Qingwu asked her: "Jiang Dianying, are you too deeply poisoned?"

"Alas, Shen Xingdu also said the same thing about me..."

When Jiang Dianying mentioned Shen Xingdu, her mind was diverted and she thought of another thing: "Baby, does this man have a pig's brain? Why did he find a woman like Jiang Xuening?"

"?"

Jiang Dianying could tell what Gu Qingwu meant from his confused look.

He took out his phone and opened his Moments to show her: "It's hard for me not to know this person when I'm far away in a foreign country. Last month, Jiang Xuening sat next to me at a fashion show and immediately said, 'Hello, Sister Dianying, I'm Xingdu's girlfriend... You and him are childhood sweethearts, right?'"

Later, Jiang Dianying was shamelessly asked by Jiang Xuening to get her WeChat account. Whenever she posted something on her Moments, Jiang Xuening would immediately come and like it.

"The contract as Xiangjia's spokesperson for China is about to expire, and she wants to use my connections to get in touch with the top management to negotiate this high-end luxury product."

Gu Qingwu slid his fingertips across the screen and looked down.

She and Jiang Xuening were not WeChat friends, so she didn’t know that Jiang Dianying’s circle of friends was so... interesting.

"By the way, I'm leaving the high-end endorsement of Xiang's family for you. Just think of it as a gift from a good sister to you when she returns to China." Jiang Dianying has a good personal relationship with the president of Xiang's family, so recommending a spokesperson is just a matter of words.

Gu Qingwu clinked glasses with her and said half-jokingly, "I don't have any gifts for you."

"Baby, if you are willing to sleep with me for one night, it will be enough to give me a gift that will make all men in the world envy you to death." Jiang Dianying's joke was not serious at all. It happened to be heard by the man who had mustered up the courage to approach her and strike up a conversation. The man's steps obviously froze, and he retreated silently.

Gu Qingwu saw it out of the corner of his eye, but didn't say anything, just letting the misunderstanding remain.

From childhood to adulthood, she and Jiang Dianying have been surrounded by countless suitors. Tired of being rejected, the two of them simply acted in harmony to make the suitors give up.

While we were eating and chatting, the restaurant manager personally brought up a bottle of good wine.

He claimed that it was the distinguished guest in the box who invited him, and pointed in a direction.

Gu Qingwu lowered his eyelashes and continued to eat. He had never had any interest in these things.

On the other hand, Jiang Dianying looked over with great interest. Two seconds later, she stammered, "It's over... I saw a man with a divine appearance sitting over there in the box... Damn it, Gu Qingwu, look quickly, is this man stealing glances at me?"

Gu Qingwu was helpless against her pestering, so he raised his head and followed the line of sight.

Under the bright crystal chandeliers, the restaurant was spacious. It was called a private room, but it was separated by a few carved screens, so that the view of the handsome man sitting there was unobstructed.

Haven't seen you for half a month.

He Sui sat calmly in the main seat, tilted his head to listen to the people whispering a few words, and seemed to catch her gaze, looking straight in her direction.

Suddenly, Jiang Dianying next to him said more confidently: "Baby, you have also noticed that he is constantly peeking at me! The restaurant manager just said that he was the one who delivered the wine... If he approaches me at that time, how can I politely refuse him!"

Gu Qingwu quietly looked away, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, then said, "You misunderstood."

Jiang Dianying smiled and deliberately teased: "Don't you know what's going on? Which man doesn't like me?"

Gu Qingwu continued to drink water, thinking that he had not checked the almanac before going out tonight, and had chosen a bad location for the dinner party.

She was thinking about just paying the bill and leaving, but Jiang Dianying suddenly pulled her arm again, shocking her so much that she almost dropped the wine glass: "Baby, I saw my soulmate!"

Jiang Dianying pointed to the seat next to He Suichen, where a man in a casual suit had just arrived late. He had a very approachable and handsome face, and a gentle smile on the corners of his lips. It was undoubtedly him!

Gu Qingwu didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. Just as she was about to say something, Jiang Dianying had been overwhelmed by love and was afraid that her true love would disappear again. She whispered in her ear: "Baby, please go over and get me a contact number. Please."

"You chase men, why should I go?"

"The one in the main seat is definitely a big shot. What if he takes a fancy to me and Cheng Shu doesn't dare to give me his contact information?"

Jiang Dianying's train of thought made Gu Qingwu choke to the extreme. He took her fingers away from his slender arms one by one and said in a very calm tone: "I won't go."

She has blocked He Sui Chen for half a month. Now she goes to his place to chat up, but she can't bring herself to show off her pretty face.

Seeing that she didn't help him, Jiang Dianying had a trick up her sleeve. She raised her lips and said, "Okay, then I'll ask for it in your name."

Before she could finish her words, she ran over to chat with him.

… The speed was so fast that Gu Qingwu had no room for regret.

I would like to recommend the pre-collected article in Huanhuan’s column: "I Only Have Feelings for You". If you are interested, you can collect it.

Copywriter:

"Rose has no principles, heartbeat comes first"

Copywriting 1.

Lin Zhichu is the perfect lover that Tan Qingbai keeps in his villa. For five years, she has been docile and obedient, remembering her identity.

Tan Qingbai has a fickle personality, and she caters to all his needs.

Everyone thought that Lin Zhichu loved this man so much that she was so humble that she lost herself.

However, she took the initiative to end the relationship and moved out of his villa with her suitcase on a rainy night.

Tan Qingbai held the cigarette between his long fingers and lightly tapped it, the ash falling like snow, reminding her like a gift: "I can beckon my fingers and countless people will line up to take your place, don't regret it when you leave."

"good."

Once Lin Zhichu left, he never looked back.

2.

One month later

Popular actress Lin Zhichu's new work "Light and Shadow" won an international award. At the award ceremony, she wore a red high-slit long dress, holding the arm of the actor, looking gentle and charming, and glamorous.

After the two of them became a couple and became a hot topic, the love-frustrated Tan Qingbai discovered that Lin Zhichu was interviewed together with another wild man.

In the video, the man inadvertently turned his face to the side, revealing a handsome and delicate outline, with a brow bone that was somewhat similar to his.

When the reporter asked: What made you decide to star in this movie with the best actor

Lin Zhichu: Because he looks like the face of my first love who passed away many years ago.

Tan Qingbai, who has the same face, said: "Fuck!"

So, after leaving him, this woman quickly found another replacement

-

Tan Qingbai had been coaxed by Lin Zhichu for so many years and treated her as nothing. He never realized that one day he would love her so much that he would lose control and even lose his life.

In the end, he still lost his life with his own hands.

Later, on a night when it suddenly rained heavily, Tan Qingbai stood in front of her car in a mess, his eyes dark and crazy: "Zhizhi, can we go home?"

Lin Zhichu was not as gentle and clingy to him as before. This strange greeting seemed to break his heart: "Sir, who are you
