CHAPTER 176-200
Chapter 176: Everything Alright?
After Tang Shaoqi turned Xuanyuan Group into a bloodbath, she and Lin Qingxue confronted one another for the first time.
This was also the first time Tang Shaoqi encountered Gu Changfeng after becoming evil.
Therefore, this was a very important scene for everyone.
Director Yi gave them days to make preparations before deciding to shoot the scene on this very day.
Before the filming started, he was worried that Li Xing'er and Fu Shiyi would mess it up, so he purposefully stressed the importance of the scene to them in a serious tone.
"The most important thing about this scene is the confrontation displayed in the eyes. You must show the emotion through the gaze; you two don't mess it up."
"I get it, Director Yi." Li Xing'er nodded with a smile.
She had made extensive preparations just to pass in one take... Otherwise she would lose face in front of the media and her own fans.
After Yi An stressed the importance to them he said to Gu Weiwei, who was checking the wire not far away, "Are you done?"
"Yes." Gu Weiwei nodded.
She needed to fly up to the rooftop from horseback and then down from the rooftop, to confront Lin Qingxue. Therefore, a wire was needed.
The media and fans were waiting aside and when the fans saw Director Yi explaining the scene to Li Xing'er in such a discreet way, they could not help but discuss among themselves.
"Sure enough, Director Yi tells Xing'er and Third Master what they should do before filming the scene, but look at the supporting role, he totally ignores her."
"She is just a minor role, no need to tell her anything."
"True, Lin Qingxue in the original novel is very smart and talented, so she keeps many of the disciples from the Xuanyuan Group safe, by helping them escape from Tang Shaoqi and her assassins."
"I'm so glad that I can watch my goddess acting in front of me."
"That supporting role girl had better not slow Xing'er down. I will definitely go and curse her to death if she ever ruins Xing'er's performance."
...
Luo Qianqian and Ji Cheng who were not far away from them were not feeling too good, when they saw that Tang Shaoqi was ignored by the director.
She might be a supporting role, yet the director should not just pay attention to the two leading characters and ignore the supporting roles!
Also Third Master was in the film crew too. What was he doing ignoring Weiwei as well?
At this moment, all the departments were ready and Yi An had sat down in front of the camera with the loudspeaker in his hand.
"Action!"
The clip was on. "Act 237 the Long Wind, Bloodbath at Xuanyuan Group, one take at one go."
The cold wind was blowing, as Tang Shaoqi brought dozens of fighters in black with her, and rode to the gate of the Xuanyuan Group.
The twisted mask concealed her facial features.
The only thing that was shown was a pair of eyes, that was brewing a storm of killing intent.
The fighters all climbed off horseback and sneaked into Xuanyuan Group with their swords drawn. The sound of fighting quickly arose
Tang Shaoqi opened her arms and leaped up from the horse's back, she went onto the rooftop of the Xuanyuan Group's residence easily.
Then she looked down at the bloodbath below her feet and sneered.
Lin Qingxue turned at the sound and saw the lethal looking Tang Shaoqi, standing on the rooftop, in a black outfit. Her gaze became concerned.
Then she turned to the juniors next to her. "Inform the brothers to come and assist me, and take the rest to leave through the secret passage!"
She came out from behind artificial rockery and saw that the woman who had just been on the rooftop, was now right in front of her.
The eyes looked lethal and she lost the courage to fight back because of the large pressure.
....
"Cut!" Yi An shouted.
When Weiwei was flying down with the wire, Li Xing'er did not stop the attack according to the script.
So in order to avoid hurting anyone, she had to withdraw the sword and ended up rolling on the ground.
Li Xing'er's fans laughed as they saw her rolling over the floor.
"Look at her, so funny!"
"We will curse her tonight because she was slowing Xing'er down!"
However, as they were mocking Gu Weiwei, Yi An spoke through the loudspeaker and totally dumbfounded them.
"Li Xing'er, are you stupid? Or are you a piece of wood? What are you doing just standing there, without moving an inch?"
Chapter 177: Everything Alright? 2
Li Xing'er was feeling very uncomfortable, because she was being scolded in front of the fans and the visiting media. However, despite this, she still said, with a pretentious smile, "Sorry, Director Yi, I was distracted."
Yi An sat down with an unhappy face and said through the loudspeaker.
"Get back onto the rooftop, Tang Shaoqi, let's take one more shot."
She had not followed the script, and if Mu Weiwei had not withdrawn her sword, the sword would have come right at her.
Gu Weiwei had to get back onto the rooftop with the wire and then waited for the director's order.
Then she brought herself into character and flew down to Lin Qingxue again.
Lin Qingxue came out of the fake rockery and encountered that pair of eyes again, which were full of lethality and pressure.
She was frightened and out of fear, she retreated, forgetting what she ought to have done.
"Cut!" Yi An shouted and his expression looked even worse.
"What the hell are you doing, Lin Qingxue?"
"You are facing Tang Shaoqi; you mustn't show fear, only calmness. What are you doing standing there, like a dumb piece of wood?!"
Li Xing'er wasn't comfortable either. For some reason, when she saw Mu Weiwei coming down from the rooftop, with lethality in her eyes, she felt as if she had been possessed.
So much so that she could not control her own fear or bring herself into character to act accordingly.
She even felt that Mu Weiwei was out to kill her too.
The director gritted his teeth and ordered a retake to each department.
Gu Weiwei sighed and went up to the rooftop to go again for another take.
Expectedly, the take failed again.
Yi An's face sank and he almost smashed the things in his hands.
"Li Xing'er, what were you doing these last few days when I asked you to prepare for this scene?"
"I even told you how to act out the scene! So what in the hell have you been doing?"
...
Li Xing'er's fans did not dare utter a single word after their own idol failed so many takes and was criticized by the director repeatedly.
At this moment, Ji Cheng and Luo Qianqian, who had been so worried, glanced at Li Xing'er's fans who were concerned about her and sneered loudly.
"Oh is she really a skillful person? Someone so terrible at acting."
Ji Cheng and Luo Qianqian came to the set with Fu Shiyi's fans, and after seeing the lead female role fail three takes, they started to suspect the authenticity of Li Xing'er's acting skills.
"Those who act in TV-series cannot necessarily act in movies."
"Always making up stories about how excellent she is at acting but now I'm wondering if she has been slapped hard across the face."
"My heart aches for the Third Master who has to deal with such a person."
"Also, have you noticed that the director never complains about Tang Shaoqi."
"My friend's sister who is working in the crew says that Tang Shaoqi always passes the shoot in one take and she only fails the take because of her partners."
"That is ridiculous, Li Xing'er has been in the industry for a whole year and she has done two TV-series, how is it that she is not even as excellent as a newcomer?"
"She is gifted, and the director doesn't tell her what to do because she is skilled enough to not cause the director any trouble."
"Third Master signed her, so she can't be bad at acting. I am going to become her fan."
....
After Li Xing'er's fans heard Fu Shiyi's fans sneering at their own idol and speaking up for Mu Weiwei, they became so annoyed. However, they did not dare to counter them because their own idol did fail multiple takes.
They had sneered that the supporting role was bad at acting and now the director had proved them wrong.
Chapter 178: Li Xing'er Passed Out
After three failed takes, Yi An was so annoyed that he lectured Li Xing'er right in front of the visiting media and fans instead of helping her to maintain her reputation.
Li Xing'er's fans were both concerned and embarrassed, when they saw their own idol being lectured by the director.
Now they themselves were embarrassed too, because they had mocked the supporting role for not being good at acting, but actually it turned out that Li Xing'er was the one who failed the scene takes all the time.
Yi An talked with Li Xing'er for a while and said patiently, "Three minutes, and then one more shot."
Li Xing'er nodded, took a deep breath and glanced at the fans and the visiting media, some distance away.
She must make this work.
Otherwise her fans would be so disappointed in her!
Having said these words, Yi An went to Gu Weiwei who was getting ready on the rooftop and whispered, "I know you are angry, but could you please calm down a little bit? Otherwise we will never pass the take."
"How should I do that?" Gu Weiwei feigned innocence.
Yi An sighed. "Stop playing dumb with me. If you wanted the scene to be acted well, Lin Qingxue would not have failed the take three times."
She had performed so well that Lin Qingxue just couldn't deal with her at all.
When Lin Qingxue couldn't deal with her, she showed fear and froze in fright, out of instinct.
If this carried on how was he going to proceed with the show?
"You told us that we must show the best of ourselves otherwise you will not be satisfied." Gu Weiwei said.
Yes she had been doing it on purpose.
Li Xing'er was bragging about her acting skills, right?
Then she would slap her right across her face in front of her own fans and the visiting media.
Then she would not have any space to claim that she was a skilled actress and write mean comments about her because she was a newcomer.
Yi An waved his hands. "Never mind, just do as you normally do."
Her acting skill was totally fine, but the problem was that Li Xing'er was not good at acting at all and could not handle her.
That was an important scene and any takes acted casually would not work.
Gu Weiwei went up to the rooftop and watched Li Xing'er, who was getting ready for the performance, as she was fiddling with the sword in her hands.
She chose today to slap her right across her face and she had to accept it.
She must admit that it felt so good when she could embarrass her right in front of her fans.
When every member was ready and the extras were in the right place, the director stressed to Li Xing'er.
"One more shot! Understand what Lin Qingxue is like! She is a talented person who knows everything about the world..."
Li Xing'er nodded and felt that she was in the right mood, so she moved back to the fake rockery, ready for filming.
"Fourth take, scene 237, of the Long Wind!"
All the fighters of the Jin State rushed into the Xuanyuan Group, and had a fierce battle with the disciples.
The cold wind was filled with blood and Tang Shaoqi, who's black clothes moved around in the wind, stared down at this scene of violence.
Suddenly, she saw something moving behind a fake rockery.
She pulled out her sword and lunged at the person that came out of the fake rockery like a flying ghost.
Lin Qingxue defended herself with her sword and encountered a pair of lethal eyes and said with a shaking and quivering voice,
"Who... are you?"
....
"Cut!" Yi An could not stand it and stopped the filming.
Angered, Li Xing'er glanced at the fans and the visiting media, only a short distance away.
She almost collapsed to the ground and realised she would fail the scene takes, no matter how many times they tried it.
But she could not run away when the director was still there, otherwise she would be considered to be someone that was too arrogant.
If she kept doing the takes and failing them, the media might write some negative articles about her.
She thought for a moment, placed her hands against the fake rockery, closed her eyes and passed out as she swayed backwards.
Chapter 179: What a Bitch
"Xing'er?"
"Sis Xing?"
The agent, the assistant and Li Xing'er's fans were all frightened and rushed over to her side.
The crew members rushed over and immediately called an ambulance.
Li Xing'er's fans hadn't been very happy about her constantly failed takes.
But now, when they saw her passing out, everyone turned tearful.
"Ah, she is ill, that is why she acted badly. We have misunderstood her."
"Why didn't she say anything about being ill? What is she still doing on the film site?"
"We only wish that she could do well. She does not need to work so hard."
....
After Li Xing'er passed out, all of her fans cried loudly.
Far away in the distance, Luo Qianqian and Fu Shiyi's fans were watching this ridiculous show, speechlessly.
Ji Cheng pursed her lips and sneered. "She must have passed out because she has been slapped across her face!"
"Maybe she is just pretending." Luo Qianqian pointed out plainly.
"Really?" Ji Cheng just could not believe it - would pretentious fainting work?
"Because she knows that if she continues, she would keep failing the takes, and she can't stop the filming because she is not in a position to call for that either. So she just passes out, so that she doesn't have to do the filming any more." Luo Qianqian analyzed her idea calmly.
Ji Cheng nodded in agreement. "So she has to pretend to be pitiful, after she fails to be skillful!"
If she continued to do the filming and failed the takes, then the media reports would all be about her bad acting skills the next morning.
But if she did pass out, she would have the excuse to say that she was not feeling well today when she was filming, and that was the reason she failed her takes.
What a b*tch!
Fifteen minutes later, the ambulance arrived.
Li Xing'er was sent to the hospital and her agent as well as her assistant followed behind her.
The director asked someone to follow her to the hospital and Li Xing'er's fans, all found modes of transportation and headed to the hospital.
When the crew members and fans all arrived at the hospital, Li Xing'er had already woken up. She was getting a fluid infusion whilst lying down in bed, looking feeble.
"What did the doctor say?" The crew members asked worriedly.
"Maybe she is too tired so she is suffering from slight hypoglycemia." Li Xing'er's agent said.
The crew members let out a sigh of relief. "Then take a good rest today."
"Sorry for causing trouble to the crew. I can be back tonight and I can continue with the filming tomorrow." Li Xing'er said in a fake strong tone, still looking pale.
The fans, standing at the entrance of the ward, were so moved that they all burst into tears.
The crew members went through the procedures at the hospital, bought some fruits and flowers and left the hospital to go back to the film site.
Li Xing'er asked her agent to invite the fans at the door into the ward.
"I'm so sorry that I have disappointed you, especially when you have all come to visit me today."
"No, no, we are not disappointed. We are always proud of you." One fan said with tears in her eyes.
She was still making the film despite being sick.
They were not disappointed in her at all. They were concerned about her!
Li Xing'er smiled gratefully. "Thank you for visiting me today. I asked my assistant to book a place for you all to eat together, please be careful on the way home."
Seeing their idol being so concerned about them, they were all so moved.
The assistant led the fans out of the ward and Li Xing'er suddenly dropped the smile on her face as she said to the agent, "Watch out for the online comments. No negative reports should be allowed."
"I will." The agent nodded and asked confusedly when she thought of the scene she had seen earlier today. "You normally don't faint. What happened?"
She clearly knew what she was up to. She passed out, just so she wouldn't have to continue doing failed takes, in case it caused her to lose face in front of her fans and the visiting media. That was why she pretended to faint.
Chapter 180: The Prince
Li Xing'er looked lethal and said, with gritted teeth, "I'm not sure what happened. But when I saw Mu Weiwei's eyes, it was like I was possessed and I just could not bring myself into the right mindset."
She had made preparations for this scene all the way till midnight and she didn't even have a chance to show off any of her hard work.
"Is she trying to exceed you?"
"Impossible!" Li Xing'er denied resolutely.
Only those experienced and gifted actors would try to exceed the newcomers.
And Mu Weiwei as the newcomer would never make it, when she had never learnt how to act.
The reason why she kept failing the takes, was probably because she hated her too much, to concentrate on herself.
Without asking anything more, the agent said to her, as she saw the incoming call on the phone, "Take a good rest. I will call the company to decide how to deal with your fainting at the site. I will ask the company to control the comments and avoid any about your failed takes."
....
Just because Li Xing'er passed out and went to the hospital, it didn't mean that the filming stopped. They moved the tools to the plain area a few kilometers away.
They were ready to film the scene where Tang Shaoqi and Gu Changfeng were riding and attacking each other. This was the last fighting scene.
Since Gu Changfeng needed to have a new outfit, Gu Weiwei and the crew members were waiting on the site.
She led the horse that she was going to ride and presented some postures for Ji Cheng and Luo Qianqian to take pictures.
The more pictures Ji Cheng took, the more she liked them and she said, "Ah, Goddess you look so handsome. I wish I could marry you."
"Stop it, I don't want to marry you."
The three of them were just talking cheerfully when Fu Shiyi's fans were taking pictures of the horse Fu Shiyi was going to ride a moment later. Some even went bravely onto the horse's back.
However, someone accidentally used the flash on their camera and it reflected in the horse's eyes; it sprinted away at great speed, after a loud whinny.
The girl on horseback had not yet gotten down and she was crying out for help with her hands holding on tightly to the horse's neck.
All the crew members were frightened and they all started to run after the horse.
But human beings could not catch up with a horse and all they could do was watch the frightened horse, dashing further and further away, into the distance.
When Gu Weiwei heard the voice of the girl, she pulled the reins and turned her horse around and galloped after the bolting horse.
Her horse caught up with the frightened horse and she shouted to the girl on horseback.
"Don't be scared! Pull the reins to slow the horse down!"
"I am scared, I don't dare to, I can't! Help me!" The girl did not dare to open her eyes as she held onto the horse's neck tightly.
Gu Weiwei looked into the distance and saw the dangerous hill that would totally bring them to disaster.
She made up her mind and rushed slightly in front of the other horse. She then flipped herself down off her horse's back and instantly mounted onto the back of the frightened horse.
Then she held the reins and slowed the horse down. She managed to stop them whilst they were still in the safe zone.
Then she patted the girl who was still shivering and holding onto the horse's neck.
"Now we are safe, don't be scared."
The girl was called Meng Xiaofei, and she was a loyal fan of Fu Shiyi. When she heard the gentle voice, she turned around and looked at the savior who had just saved her life.
Against the afterglow, a handsome young man in costume was smiling brightly and mildly at her.
Within that moment, she found herself travelling back in time and said in astonishment, "I fear nothing when you are around."
That was what she was feeling at this moment.
As if she had just met the prince who had saved her life.
Although rationally speaking, it was a girl dressed in a prince's costume... But she just couldn't control her excited, beating heart.
Chapter 181: Mu Weiwei, My Idol
Gu Weiwei looked at the film site, which was far off in the distance, and looked down at the girl.
"Let's go back now."
Flushing bright red, the girl nodded obediently.
Gu Weiwei rode back to the film site with and maintained an expert control over the speed of the horse.
When Ji Cheng and Fu Shiyi's fans saw them coming towards them, they all burst out into excited screams, after witnessing the whole scene.
Then when they saw Gu Weiwei, who was dressed in the male costume, coming back with Meng Xiaofei on the horse back, Fu Shiyi's fans became even more excited than Ji Cheng and Luo Qianqian.
They brought out their phones and cameras and kept taking pictures and videos of them.
"Oh my gosh, she is so cool!"
"Ahhhhh, it is even more exciting than watching a film! Tang Shaoqi is just so cool!"
"Xiaofei is so happy because she was saved by such a cool Master from the Tang Family!"
"I also want to ride with the Master of the Tang Family!"
....
Gu Weiwei pulled the reins, dismounted off the horse and helped Meng Xiaofei down.
"Don't do such a dangerous thing again."
"Thanks, I get it."
Meng Xiaofei looked at her and started to flush a vivid red!
"Master Tang, you are so cool!"
"Oh what a wonderful scene! Master of the Tang Family, the sinister person, has traveled into the modern times to save a modern girl!"
"That was so cool of her to have saved the girl!"
....
The fans surrounded her and kept taking pictures of her.
Fu Shiyi had finished his makeup and found that no fans were coming over to him, when he came out of the makeup room.
He looked around and saw that all of them were around Mu Weiwei, instead of coming over to see him.
"My gosh, what is it going on? They must be fake fans, right?"
No one was paying attention to him!
The crew member heard what he said, and replied with a smile, "Third Master, one of your fans was taking pictures on the horse's back and the horse became startled. It almost caused an accident, but Mu Weiwei reacted quickly and saved the girl!"
Visiting the film site was an arrangement that was overseen by the crew, and if something really happened, the crew would have to take responsibility.
That was why they were all shocked and grateful that the girl was saved.
Surrounded by a group of girls, Gu Weiwei did not get rid of them until the assistant asked her to go inside the makeup room so they could start the filming.
Fu Shiyi looked at his fans who had ignored him and snorted at her as she approached.
"Can you not steal my fans?"
"I am not stealing your fans!" Gu Weiwei rolled her eyes at him.
"Look at what you have done!" Fu Shiyi pointed at the fans in the distance and said, "They are all saying that they want to marry you! Isn't this not stealing?"
Gu Weiwei was speechless.
Meng Xiaofei saw Gu Weiwei off unwillingly and went up to Ji Cheng and Luo Qianqian.
"You know Mu Weiwei right?"
"Where does she go to school?"
"Where does she live?"
"What is her horoscope and what is her blood type?"
....
Ji Cheng was a bit confused.
Who are you meant to be following anyways?
The fans spoke up. "Xiaofei, you are turning against the Third Master!"
"Only the Master of the Tang Family is my idol now!" Meng Xiaofei looked in Gu Weiwei's direction with an affectionate gaze.
Her heart had swayed in her direction, the moment she had saved her on horseback.
"Hey, aren't you only a fan of male stars and not female stars?" Her friends asked in astonishment.
With her eyes upon Gu Weiwei, who had just mounted the horse and gotten ready for the filming, Meng Xiaofei felt her heart throbbing.
"My past idols are just bygones, only she is my real idol now."
Chapter 182: On the Hot Search
On the very same night, Li Xing'er and her agent were reading the Weibo posts.
They were waiting for the news they had just bought to be published. It would be about how Li Xing'er, the female lead role of the Long Wind, still worked despite being sick but unfortunately passed out in the process.
However, before Li Xing'er's news was out, they found that Mu Weiwei's name topped the hot search.
[Mu Weiwei, the Master of the Tang Family] tag had topped the hot search No.4.
They clicked on the tag and found that none of the visiting media mentioned how Li Xing'er worked whilst being sick.
Instead, all of the latest news was about how Tang Shaoqi, of the Long Wind, risked her life to save a fan in danger.
Alongside the constant words of praise, there was a video attached too.
In the video, Mu Weiwei, who was dressed in the black male costume, dashed forward and saved the frightened fan on horseback, successfully.
Apart from the reports of the visiting media, Fu Shiyi's fans were actively promoting and praising the rescue incident.
Some even attached music to the video.
In the video there was a handsome looking guy in costume, who swiftly mounted the horse and brought a modern girl out of danger.
This was a scene full of a time travelling fantasy and it was reposted by numerous people, which helped her gain a great deal of popularity.
Yet, the news she bought, did not cause a single sensation on Weibo at all.
Li Xing'er read through everything and asked her agent.
"What is going on? Why is she in the news?"
Even if she, as the female lead role, was not in the news... the Third Master, as the leading male role, should be on the cover story, instead of Mu Weiwei the supporting role.
The agent said, "Let me make a call and ask."
Normally speaking, the crew should focus on promoting the two leading roles, but the supporting role was now in the news instead of the two leading roles.
"I told you to keep an eye out for Mu Weiwei so that she would not stand out. What did you do?" Li Xing'er asked angrily.
"I stayed at the hospital the whole time and worked on the news release with the company the entire afternoon, of course I had no time for the crew!" The agent felt wronged.
If she had not pretended to pass out and come to the hospital because of failed takes, the crew would have done the work on the external scenes, and Mu Weiwei's rescue would have never happened.
After all, it was she herself who had helped Mu Weiwei reach the top of the hot search list.
Yet now, she was blaming her agent for being useless.
"Forget it, we can let her be for the time being." Li Xing'er waved her hands and gritted her teeth.
It was no use asking the crew what had happened when the topic had become so popular.
Seeing her unconvinced facial expression, the agent suggested,
"Didn't you say that you have some negative news about her? What about spilling it to the media?"
She knew what had happened between the Li Family and the Mu Family, and how much she hated Mu Weiwei.
Since Mu Weiwei was doing so well with more than just a pretty face and being signed to Shiyi Culture, she was going to become really popular when the movie was released.
If they did not do anything, Li Xing'er would be put into the shadows.
"That is an important piece of news that should be used at a critical moment. Now, we can't do anything about her." Li Xing'er's kind and gentle face suddenly turned sinister.
The Long Wind was her first movie and she must not release the rumors of Mu Weiwei sleeping with Wang Weidong, just because she did not like her.
This is because the rumor would affect the box office and the evaluation of the Gold Phoenix Award; this would be such a great loss to herself.
Chapter 183: Fu Hanzheng Visits
Li Xing'er and her agent were so angry that they failed to go to sleep for the entire night. Elsewhere, Jolin who was far away in the capital, was so excited that he failed to sleep the entire night.
As dawn broke, he called Gu Weiwei.
"Great job! The news of you saving the girl, has reached the hot search top 2!"
Startled for two seconds, Gu Weiwei finally realized what he was talking about.
"Oh... that was just an accident, really."
Originally, she had planned to slap Li Xing'er across the face so that she wouldn't dare to create mean comments about her, but unexpectedly, she had failed and Li Xing'er went to the hospital instead.
As a result, the crew moved to the external site to shoot the film, which was where she ran into Fu Shiyi's fans and the accident happened; she just took the opportunity to save her.
"This is a very positive promotion for you. You have almost gained one million fans on Weibo overnight." Jolin just could not help feeling glad.
Compared to Li Xing'er's low-level manufactured stories, where she made mistakes and asked for compassion, Weiwei's story of saving people was even more worthy of promotion.
Especially when she managed to save Third Master's fan, and receive positive comments from Third Master's group of fans, so that now she had obtained many of his fans too.
Gu Weiwei smiled calmly, "Thanks for your efforts."
She had been focused on saving the girl at that time, but now she had a big piece of news instead.
"Oh yeah, it is your birthday today, but I can't make it. Do celebrate with the crew."
"Okay." Gu Weiwei checked the time and hung up.
Then she washed and went to eat breakfast, did her makeup and got ready for the shoot.
Since Li Xing'er was still at the hospital and yet to return, she was once again arranged to do the filming with Fu Shiyi.
It was not until the afternoon when Li Xing'er finally came back to the site; she brought everyone coffee and hot drinks.
Also, she apologized to the directors and the cameramen, admitting that she had slowed them down.
After three more failed takes, Li Xing'er finally finished the bloodbath scene in the Xuanyuan Clan with them.
Director checked the time and said through the loudspeaker.
"It is Tang Shaoqi's birthday so we will not do the night filming. Let's go and celebrate at the restaurant we have booked."
The crew cheered happily when they heard that they could skip the night shift and participate in the gathering.
Li Xing'er was displeased, but she still showed a false smile and said to Gu Weiwei and the director, "Weiwei, Director Yi, I am not feeling that well, so I can't attend the celebration tonight. I want to rest at the hotel now, in case I slow you guys down again."
She had been annoyed because of Mu Weiwei the night before and had failed to get any sleep, and now she was not in the mood to celebrate with Mu Weiwei!
Director Yi did not force her either but stressed.
"Then go back and take a rest, contact Director Lee in case of anything."
Gu Weiwei did not say anything more, and she called Ji Cheng and Luo Qianqian who insisted on remaining for her birthday, after Xing'er left.
Without Li Xing'er around, the crew members, together with Gu Weiwei whom they liked, had a very happy birthday.
Yi An paid for the meal and Ji Cheng and Luo Qianqian made the birthday cake, whilst the makeup group and martial arts group prepared special birthday presents for her.
Fu Shiyi gave her a huge red packet on Wechat and they did not return to the hotel until almost eleven o'clock at night.
They were waiting for the elevator when someone called out to Fu Shiyi in the lobby.
"Third Master!"
Fu Shiyi and the group followed the sound and saw a cold-looking and handsome man, walking into the lobby, brightening up the entire hotel instantly.
This was... Fu Hanzheng?
Chapter 184: Fu Hanzheng's Birthday Song
Although everyone in the crew knew that Fu Shiyi's brother was President Fu Hanzheng of Fu's Enterprise, not one of them believed that Fu Hanzheng would suddenly appear at such a lousy three-star hotel, in a filming city.
It was not until Fu Hanzheng drew closer to them, when everyone finally came back to themselves.
Yi An smiled and greeted Fu Hanzheng.
"President Fu, you are a busy man but still manage to spare time for Third Master?"
Fu Shiyi looked helpless. He was not visiting him! He was here for his girlfriend.
He had been alive for too long to understand that even if he was hospitalized, his brother would never visit him, let alone when he was filming!
He was here for his girlfriend's birthday, and he was here to go for a date!
"Yes." Fu Hanzheng glanced at Gu Weiwei among the crowd and answered calmly.
Seeing Fu Hanzheng standing right in front of him, the executive director asked passionately, "Have you eaten dinner President Fu? Do you want something from our hotel?"
They must flatter a wealthy man like him, because if they managed to do so, they would never have to worry about investments in the future.
"No thanks, President Fu and Third Master need to discuss something important." Xu Qian turned down Director Lee politely.
Seeing Fu Hanzheng's cold and distant face, the executive director found it a bit pitiful that he had to let him go, but he could still do something to gain merit.
"Then President Fu, take this elevator and we will take the next one."
Having agreed with him, Fu Hanzheng entered the elevator.
Fu Shiyi followed up behind him and glanced at Gu Weiwei who was still standing outside the elevator.
"Mu Weiwei, are you coming or not?"
Under the sight of everyone else, Gu Weiwei forced herself into the elevator.
After they had walked out of the elevator, the three men went to her room.
Xu Qian cleared the small desk and put the birthday cake onto the table. He placed the candle in the cake and turned off the light after lighting it.
"Sing a song alright? You are not here just to let her blow out the candle, are you?" Fu Shiyi smiled sinisterly.
He had never seen his brother singing before and he was very curious as to what it was like.
"Third Master, let's leave them alone." Xu Qian reminded Fu Shiyi with a smile.
"Why? We must celebrate her birthday together." Fu Shiyi did not want to leave.
Xu Qian pulled him out. He was going to be a third wheel if he continued to stay here.
The candles on the cake were lit and the room was full of warm light.
Fu Hanzheng unfolded the paper birthday paper hat and placed it over her head.
Then he picked up the small cake and smiled.
"Happy Birthday to You, Happy Birthday to You..."
The man's low and attractive voice echoed through the room as he sang the birthday song.
"...."
Gu Weiwei stared at the man who was singing and found that he looked extremely gentle and attractive.
Her heart was fluttering.
"Happy birthday, Weiwei." Fu Hanzheng said with a low voice.
Gu Weiwei felt like crying. Fu Hanzheng, could you please make me hate you, so that I can defend against my own heart?
Fu Hanzheng waited for a while and reminded her with a low voice, "The candles are almost out."
Gu Weiwei quickly blew out the candles before they went out themselves.
She was about to say thank you to him, when the man's red lips met hers, caressing her lips.
Then he pampered her senses with his low voice and said, with his lips against hers, "Open your mouth."
"..."
Damn!
She knew that he wasn't here to actually celebrate her birthday with her.
He was turned on and wanted to sleep with her!
Chapter 185: Marrying First
In the darkness, the couple were entangled with each other.
Gu Weiwei clenched her teeth. She had been slightly moved by Fu Hanzheng coming all the way to the hotel to celebrate her birthday, but his kiss had made that emotion disappear.
Instead of waiting for her to cooperate, Fu Hanzheng groped under her T-shirt, making her gasp.
His kiss was dominating and passionate and she could do nothing but be at his mercy.
She held one of his hands that was over her waist tightly, in case he felt somewhere lower down on her body.
But that man's gentle tongue and lips were just like refined liquor, making her drunk completely.
After a long time, Fu Hanzheng finally released her lips and swept her into his arms, kissing her forehead and hair.
For over one month, what they had been doing was a brief call every night, but in this moment, he could finally hold her in his arms and he had no intention of releasing her again.
Buried in his arms, Gu Weiwei said, after being held by him for a long time, "Thank you for coming here for my birthday."
Although it was not her real birthday, he came straight over, after work, and he had been in a hurry for over four, five, hours just to wish her a happy birthday before midnight.
It would be untrue if she said she wasn't moved.
"You are not at home, so I must come here."
Fu Hanzheng released her, turned on the light in the room and gave her a very exquisitely wrapped gift.
Gu Weiwei took the gift and asked guiltily, "Have you eaten anything, should I buy you something to eat?"
"I ate on the plane."
Having spoken, Fu Hanzheng removed his suit, put it over the back of the chair and went straight into the bathroom.
A long time later, he came out with a towel around his waist.
His strong-looking muscles were glistening under the water droplets, showing his sexy pecs and muscular lines. She found he was too attractive to look at.
Gu Weiwei took a look at the wall and gave him the bathrobe in embarrassment.
"I don't have any clothes of your size, only this. Maybe I can go to Third Master and borrow his clothes for you?"
"I don't want to wear his clothes." Fu Hanzheng took the robe and put it on, and then answered a call when the phone rang.
During this interval, Gu Weiwei washed herself and got changed into pajamas.
When she came out of the bathroom, he was already resting in bed with his eyes closed.
She tiptoed over and snuck under the blanket, before laying in bed with her back facing him.
The moment she laid down, the low voice of the man rose from behind her.
"Come here."
Gu Weiwei sighed and rolled herself over into his arms.
"How long will you be staying here?"
"Five hours." Fu Hanzheng answered with squinted eyes.
Gu Weiwei nodded, feeling a bit guilty.
He was a busy man, but he still spent ten hours travelling back and forth just for her birthday. It was not an easy thing to do.
She suddenly thought of what Fu Shiyi did not finish last time, so she asked, "You said that when we meet, you will tell me why you like me. Can you tell me now?"
Fu Hanzheng stayed silent for a moment. "There is no reason for how I feel."
"No way." Gu Weiwei did not believe his words. She did not think that any emotion arose because of nothing.
"Why do you want to know about it so badly?" Fu Hanzheng opened his eyes and looked at this curious girl and said straightforwardly, "You want to know why I like you, so you can think of a countermeasure to break up with me?"
"I..."
Gu Weiwei had no words to counter him. That was, after all, exactly what she was thinking.
"If you dare to mention breaking up again..."
Gu Weiwei raised her eyebrows. "Then what?"
"Then we will get married and have children first."
Chapter 186: Interested
"..."
Gu Weiwei laughed dryly. He always wanted to get married and have children.
"I am just... curious."
"Only curious?" Fu Hanzheng showed a vague smile.
Gu Weiwei nodded constantly. "I am really curious. I never thought about breaking up with you."
As long as she was still at the Hua Land, she would be under his control and she was never able to break up with him.
"What are you curious about?" Fu Hanzheng asked.
Gu Weiwei rolled herself over and faced him on her side.
"I just don't think that people would suddenly experience emotions for no reason. A person likes another either for their money or their body."
"But you are much wealthier than me, so it should not be for my money. But as for my body... you are sharing the same bed with me but you are not showing any sexual interest in me. So, of course I have all the reason to ask, why do you like me?"
Fu Hanzheng listened to her speech curiously and laughed meaningfully.
"So you are displeased that I am not offering you any sexual pleasure?"
"No, no!"
Gu Weiwei denied it totally. He was distorting the key points.
"Then how do you know that I am not sexually interested in you?" He asked as he gripped hold of her hands and placed it over his manhood.
Gu Weiwei gasped. Her eyes opened wide.
She could still feel the stiffness and heat even through the robe.
Fu Hanzheng lowered his head and whispered by her ears with a low and sexy voice that was a little hoarse, "So now... you know how sexually interested I am in you, right?"
Gu Weiwei was so embarrassed and she wanted to withdraw her hands, but her wrists were in his hands and they remained over that stiffened place, unable to move.
"...Leave me alone!"
Why did she want to start a topic like this with him? It was a risky thing to do!
Fu Hanzheng kissed the tip of her nose and then placed his lips over hers as he moved her hand into his robe.
"You caused it and so you must answer for it."
Gu Weiwei was forced to feel the man's organ, so she turned away to avoid his kiss and said, between gasps, "No, no, Fu Hanzheng..."
Fu Hanzheng could feel that she was so scared and afraid that she had curled up into a ball. He asked in a low voice, with his lips against hers, "Then how should I solve this problem?"
"...You can do it yourself." Gu Weiwei was so regretful that she almost burst into tears as she felt her hand still on his body.
"I don't know how, you do it." Fu Hanzheng kissed her tender neck and said with a hoarse voice.
"..."
She didn't know how to either!
Fu Hanzheng ignored her rejection, and forcefully guided her through every step until all his desire was vented.
....
When he was done, Gu Weiwei felt that her hands had become so tired that they almost felt broken.
Fu Hanzheng wiped her hands and kissed her cheeks in satisfaction.
Gu Weiwei turned away and placed her back to him. Actually, if Fu Hanzheng really wanted to do something further to her, she would not be able to reject him.
But he had never done anything to her; although she was forced to become his girlfriend, he did not do anything to make her upset when they were in the relationship.
After filming in the daytime and the celebration party at night, she gradually fell asleep despite the fact that he was still beside her.
At five in the morning, before dawn broke, Fu Hanzheng woke up, put on his robe and tied the belt. He took a shower in the bathroom, got changed and left to catch the early plane back to the capital.
After he had tidied himself up, he kissed the girl who was still asleep.
"I am leaving now."
"...Okay."
Gu Weiwei, who was woken up by the kiss, answered faintly and fell asleep again.
Chapter 187: Emptied
At seven o'clock in the morning.
Gu Weiwei was woken up by the alarm clock and realized that Fu Hanzheng was long gone.
She washed herself and saw the remaining cake and present box, when she was combing her hair, so she opened the box and took a look inside.
It was a pair of diamond earrings that looked exquisitely beautiful, it was obviously designed by a famous designer.
She grew up in the Gu Family which was extremely wealthy, so she had developed the ability of recognizing the value of luxurious goods.
She put down the present, ate part of the cake and put the remaining leftovers in the fridge of the room.
After all, she should not toss it away when it had been brought here from so far away in the capital.
She removed all traces of Fu Hanzheng before she left, and was about to leave when she saw the towel on the bed.
She felt her forehead and sighed; she took the towel into the bathroom to wash it up in case the cleaning lady noticed that a man had been here.
She went downstairs for breakfast before hurrying into the makeup room, where Fu Shiyi was already seated.
The stylist put on the foundation for her and smiled as she saw her extremely tender and rosy lips.
"Weiwei, what happened to your lips, they look so swollen?"
Embarrassed, Gu Weiwei let out a dry laugh.
"I ate too much spicy food last night."
Fu Shiyi squinted at her and then his shoulders shook with the effort of trying to suppress his laughter that was on the verge of bursting out.
Apparently, his brother had made them swollen by kissing her intensely. However, they had made such little noise that he and Xu Qian heard nothing when they were standing outside.
When they were done with the makeup, they headed to the site together.
However, Gu Weiwei, who normally passed in one take, failed three takes today unexpectedly.
Yi An was a bit irritated and criticized her through the loudspeaker without hesitation.
"Tang Shaoqi, did you eat breakfast or not? Why are you so feeble when waving the sword? Where is your strength?"
Gu Weiwei felt helpless. It was that man's fault!
Her hands were still quite tired at the moment so she could not put any strength into the movement.
Fu Shiyi said with a meaningful tone, as he played with his sword, "You should have been aware that we are supposed to film the martial arts scenes today, before you guys went and did endless exercise last night. Look at you, you are lifeless..."
His brother had been starving for over a month and she was lucky that she was able to get out of the bed.
"Damn you! Can you stop thinking about such filthy things?" Gu Weiwei countered.
"Don't tell me that you only ate the birthday cake throughout the entire night?" Fu Shiyi snorted.
Gu Weiwei ignored him, took a small break and remade the failed takes. Finally, it was done.
After her, it was Fu Shiyi's turn. It was a very important scene with a serious feel to it and took place after the Xuanyuan Group experienced the bloodbath.
However, he had just gathered his emotions when he heard Gu Weiwei's assistant calling out to her, "Weiwei, Baby Zheng is calling."
Fu Shiyi suddenly burst into laughter and slumped down onto the floor, laughing until he was unable to get up.
The crew members were all confused, unable to understand what he was laughing at.
Gu Weiwei glanced at him speechlessly, and answered the phone when she was far away.
It was kind of noisy on the other side of the phone. He must be at the airport.
"You are at the capital now?"
"Yes, I just got off the plane." Fu Hanzheng replied.
"The present is pretty, thanks."
Fu Hanzheng could not sense her happiness, so he asked, "In a bad mood?"
"What do you think?" Gu Weiwei massaged her tired hand.
Fu Hanzheng chuckled. "Because of what happened last night?"
Gu Weiwei ended the call immediately. She had no intention of talking to him any more.
Chapter 188: Li Xing'er's Mischief
It was morning when Li Xing'er heard that Fu Hanzheng, the President of Fu's Enterprise, came to visit the crew the night before.
She regretted it greatly. She turned down the dinner because she had no intention of celebrating Mu Weiwei's. But unexpectedly, she missed the opportunity to meet Fu Hanzheng.
So when Fu Shiyi was taking a break, she came over with a drink.
"Third Masterq, I heard that President Fu was here last night?"
"Yes, he was, why?" Fu Shiyi smiled casually.
"Is he still here?" Li Xing'er smiled gently and said, "The Wei Family had a collaboration with Fu's Enterprise last time, my boyfriend has always wanted to meet President Fu."
She simply could not say that it was she who wanted to meet Fu Hanzheng, so she had to use Wei Ziting as a shield.
"My brother is too busy to meet everyone." Fu Shiyi said nonchalantly as he kept his eyes on his phone.
But if it wasn't his girlfriend's birthday, he would not have shown up here.
Li Xing'er smiled embarrassedly, losing any courage to ask further.
After she came to the crew, she had tried her best to establish a good relationship with Fu Shiyi but this playful master never took her efforts seriously and went to Mu Weiwei instead. But Mu Weiwei had done nothing for him at all.
"Third Master, actually... Mu Weiwei and I are almost sisters. My mother and her father got married."
"So?" Fu Shiyi nodded without interest.
"After Weiwei's mother passed away, she left home and spent time with elderly men." Li Xing'er sighed out of concern as she saw Gu Weiwei who was answering the phone far away.
"Okay." Fu Shiyi nodded.
For Mu Weiwei who was 19 years old, his brother was indeed considered an older man.
Li Xing'er sighed meaningfully and said, "We kept telling her not to but she never listened. Third Master you are her boss, if you have the chance, please tell her not to hang out with those older men and please tell her to come home as soon as possible."
She was of course not expecting Fu Shiyi to do anything.
Instead, she was trying to tell Fu Shiyi that Mu Weiwei was in a relationship with older men, in case he became interested in her for her foxy-looking face.
If that b*tch established some sort of relationship with the Fu Family, then the Li Family and the Zhou Family would suffer.
"Oh well, I can't do that, truly." Fu Shiyi laughed.
He would never have the courage to ask her to break up with his brother.
Seeing his sad smile, Li Xing'er thought that he had understood what she meant, so inwardly, she felt quite proud.
Mu Weiwei would never be able to establish a relationship with the Fu Family. She was not a match for them at all.
After answering the phone call, Gu Weiwei ran into Li Xing'er on the way to the makeup room.
"Mu Weiwei, don't ever think that just because you have been signed into Shiyi Culture, you will have something to do with the Fu Family."
"Well, I think that it is you who wants to have something to do with the Fu Family." Gu Weiwei said coldly.
She had asked around about Fu Hanzheng's visit since this morning and she had regretted it terribly that she had missed her chance of meeting Fu Hanzheng.
Li Xing'er glanced at her disdainfully and said coldly, "Don't ever forget that you slept with Wang Weidong and we all know about it. If you ever want to be with the Fu Family, you will have to get rid of that scandal!"
"You know all about it?" Gu Weiwei smiled meaningfully. "I don't think you do."
She had kept Zhou Meiqin's pictures carefully in her phone.
Chapter 189: Kiss with Fu Shiyi
As the end of filming the Long Wind approached, the film sites were moved from place to place.
However, when it came to the scene where Tang Shaoqi and Gu Changfeng met and became friends, before finally bidding farewell to one another, Yi An was not satisfied with what they had done and thought that something was lacking.
Therefore, the two were asked to film the scene multiple times.
As the scriptwriter watched the scene from behind the camera, he suggested something after doing some thinking.
"I was thinking that probably there should be a kiss between Tang Shaoqi and Gu Changfeng?"
The director immediately nodded.
"Yes, yes that's right! No wonder I feel that something is missing. That is exactly it."
Tang Shaoqi had feelings towards Gu Changfeng, but it seemed that the result was not that ideal after all.
If a kiss was added, then everything would become much brighter.
Also, Tang Shaoqi was a very clear-minded person.
So a kiss must be added to prove that she had feelings towards Gu Changfeng.
Once the inspiration was cemented, Yi An said through the loudspeaker,
"Get ready everyone, a new take will be made. Tang Shaoqi and Gu Changfeng should kiss, so you two, get ready for it."
"..." Gu Weiwei's water dropped to the ground.
What the hell?
She was supposed to kiss Fu Shiyi?
Fu Shiyi was taking a rest on the floor and he almost collapsed after hearing what Yi An had said, just as he was getting ready for the filming.
"Director Yi, what... did you just say?"
"Tang Shaoqi and Gu Changfeng should kiss, to prove what Tang Shaoqi is like." The director stressed.
Fu Shiyi turned himself around slowly and his lips twitched at the sight of Gu Weiwei who was doing her makeup.
"Director, it is a martial arts film, let's not do a kissing scene, okay?"
"Director Yi, I agree, let's just keep it implicit." Gu Weiwei followed.
She truly could not kiss Fu Shiyi.
Yi An looked at these two people who had turned down the idea. "What is wrong with you two? It is just a kiss, what is the big deal?"
"I don't like kisses." Fu Shiyi refused resolutely.
Director Yi rolled his eyes at him and snorted. "You have kissed almost all the female stars in the film industry and yet you say that you don't like kisses?"
He could understand why Mu Weiwei, a young girl, would not accept it but Fu Shiyi, an experienced man in the entertainment industry, was saying that he did not like kisses?
"Director, we really can't do this kissing scene." Fu Shiyi said with a sad face.
His brother would kill him if he ever touched his sister-in-law-to-be.
Also, even if they did kiss, his brother would not allow the movie to be released either.
"It has to be done." The director said resolutely.
"I am fine, but she is only 19 and maybe it is her first kiss! She will be very sad about losing it in this way, right?" Fu Shiyi pointed at Gu Weiwei.
Gu Weiwei cooperatively put on a sad face.
Yi An sighed and checked the time.
"Anyway, we are done with filming today. Weiwei you better get ready for the scene, we are shooting it tomorrow."
Gu Weiwei sighed helplessly - it seemed that they had to do the kiss no matter what.
The moment they finished work, Fu Shiyi texted his brother, reporting the emergency.
[Brother, the director wants to add a kissing scene between Mu Weiwei and I]
A minute later, Fu Hanzheng texted back.
[How would you like to die?]
Chapter 190: A Deadly Kiss?
Fu Shiyi shivered at the sight of the text.
Then he quickly called him.
"Brother, I did try to turn down the idea, but the Director insisted on it, what can I do?"
Fu Hanzheng was busy with work on the other side of the phone and answered nonchalantly.
"So?"
Fu Shiyi continued. "I turned him down several times but he insisted on making the scene to show Tang Shaoqi's characteristics! Also, it should be her kissing me instead of the other way around..."
"So?" Fu Hanzheng said coldly.
Fu Shiyi took a deep breath and tried to persuade him.
"Brother, it is very normal to do such scenes as an actor."
"She might need to do it with someone else in the future, probably more than just a kissing scene, but also a s*x scene too..."
Before he finished speaking, a cold voice arose from the phone.
"Do you still want to come back alive?"
"I do."
He answered the question directly.
"Then think of a way out yourself." Fu Hanzheng said.
Feeling wronged, Fu Shiyi thought that he should have trapped that girl indoors.
"I don't want to do a kissing scene, but what if she agrees to do it..."
Fu Hanzheng sounded even colder.
"Then just try it!"
Fu Hanzheng was busy dealing with work and had the speaker on, at the same time Fu Shiqin was laughing wildly next to him.
"The tomb I gave you is still vacant, what about moving in this year?"
Since he had always tried to set him up every year, he had already bought him a tomb.
"Fu Shiqin, just wait and see!" Fu Shiyi rang off helplessly.
No matter whether it would be him kissing her or the other way around, as long as a kissing scene happened, he would be dead.
Compared to Fu Shiyi, Gu Weiwei was relatively calmer.
After she washed up, she was just thinking about the kissing scene when Fu Hanzheng called.
"No kissing scenes!"
"...."
Gu Weiwei clearly understood that it was Fu Shiyi who had passed on the message.
"As a professional actress, I must..."
"Think of your promise before you left." Fu Hanzheng interrupted.
He had allowed her to make the film only because she had promised him that there were no kissing scenes.
"It is spontaneous alright? And also I was thinking..."
"Still want the movie to be released?" Fu Hanzheng asked her coldly.
He did not want to hear about professionalism. He was not open-minded enough to allow his girlfriend to do a kissing scene with other people.
Also, the film was going to be aired domestically!
Gu Weiwei felt her forehead. She understood that he was capable of removing the film from the cinema.
"I will talk with the director."
Fu Hanzheng stopped speaking about the kissing scene and said,
"How long before you finish filming?"
She should be home very soon.
"In a week or so, I need to go back for the start of the semester." Gu Weiwei said.
"Okay, have a good rest." Fu Hanzheng hung up and continued with his work.
Gu Weiwei thought about how to complete the scene well overnight.
Fu Shiyi was also not having a good time throughout the night, and early in the morning, they went to find the director and scriptwriter together.
However, no matter what they said, Yi An and the scriptwriter still insisted on doing the scene.
"You have made kissing and s*x scenes with so many people before, what is wrong with Mu Weiwei kissing you anyways?"
Fu Shiyi answered, "I will be dead!"
Chapter 191: A Deadly Kiss? 2
At noon, they did their own scenes and in the afternoon, they were asked by the director to re-film the scene from the day before.
The crew members were just arranging the site when Fu Shiyi leaned forward and whispered.
"Are we really going to do it?"
"Is there any other way out?" Gu Weiwei countered.
In the morning, they spared no effort in trying to persuade Yi An not to continue with the kissing scene, but Yi An did not approve.
"I will be dead tomorrow if we really do it." Fu Shiyi said helplessly.
Gu Weiwei felt her forehead. "It shouldn't be a big problem. He is your brother."
"You really don't know my brother very well." Fu Shiyi said with a sigh.
He and Fu Shiqin feared no one at home, not even their father, except for their eldest brother.
"Just lie down there, and I will do it from a different angle."
"No, that won't work either."
"Then what is your plan?"
"Even if we don't really kiss, I will still be dead if my brother thinks that we did."
Fu Shiyi shook his head, objecting to her suggestion.
They were just talking, when Yi An spoke through loudspeaker.
"Get ready, everyone, the filming is starting."
Fu Shiyi glanced at her and walked in front of the camera, looking ready to sacrifice himself.
Tang Shaoqi and Gu Changfeng had been companions for half a month after they ran into each other in Ningcheng and they appreciated each other's skills.
Tang Shaoqi helped Gu Changfeng drive away those who tried to steal away the Treasure Map, whilst Gu Changfeng had also helped Tang Shaoqi to deal with those who came to take revenge on her.
Gu Changfeng suggested becoming Tang Shaoqi's sworn brother after he drank some wine, but Tang Shaoqi had turned him down.
As the sun was setting, the two of them were drinking together.
Gu Changfeng poured two bowls of wine and said, "Brother Tang, we have been through life and death together, several times."
"What about... us becoming sworn brothers in front of this Temple."
Tang Shaoqi took a sip from the wine. "I am not going to be your sworn brother."
"Why?" Gu Changfeng was confused.
"I am leaving tomorrow." Tang Shaoqi said.
Gu Changfeng poured her another bowl of wine. "Then let's get drunk today and then I will see you off."
As the evening approached, the two of them were both very drunk.
With one hand over her forehead, Tang Shaoqi became less tipsy and looked at Gu Changfeng who was totally drunk and hunched over the table.
The Master of the Tang Family, who was cold and arrogant, felt Gu Changfeng's face as a soft gentleness crept into her eyes.
"Do you know why I can't be your sworn brother?"
Having asked this, she approached Gu Changfeng little by little.
....
Yi An and the scriptwriter were looking very forward to seeing this crucial step in front of the camera... But Gu Weiwei did not kiss him even though her lips were a centimeter away.
Fu Shiyi's face was totally twisted, and it was impossible to film the scene.
"Cut!" Director shouted.
"Kiss!"
"And Gu Changfeng, what is that face for? Will you die if she kisses you?"
"..." Fu Shiyi felt so wronged that he almost wanted to cry.
Gu Weiwei felt helpless. "Director Yi, what about us changing to another method, I just cannot kiss him."
She truly could not kiss Fu Shiyi.
Yi An sighed. She was simply too young to do the kissing scene.
"Shiyi, Tang Shaoqi is inexperienced, teach her how to do it!"
"What?" Fu Shiyi's eyes widened.
Teaching his brother's girlfriend how to kiss him? That was literally a trap of death!
Gu Weiwei sighed, got up and suggested something to the director.
"Director Yi, I have another idea for this scene, what about us acting according to our own ideas first?"
Chapter 192: Do Your Best
The director and scriptwriter exchanged a look with one another. They understood that she was not at all willing to do the kissing scene.
"Weiwei, actually, it is not that bad if you do the kissing scene now."
"You are not in a bad position if you give your first kiss to Shiyi."
Gu Weiwei's lips twitched. If not for Fu Hanzheng, she would indeed not be in a bad position.
But hundreds of kilometers away, she could feel how jealous Fu Hanzheng was, and she would never be able to do the scene.
Fu Shiyi felt so helpless. She would not be the one put into the bad position... it was him who would be killed.
"Please, let us try the new idea first." Gu Weiwei said sincerely.
Yi An thought for a while and nodded.
"Then try your idea first. Let's take a look at it."
She was a skilled actress who was always able to act according to their ideas.
So let her try acting according to her ideas this time.
When the director approved of her suggestion, Gu Weiwei told Fu Shiyi what he should do.
"If we fail even one take, we will need to do the kissing scene, so do your best now!"
"I know."
Fu Shiyi nodded. He had to act it out well to save himself!
When the two of them were ready, they walked in front of the camera and started acting.
In order to move the director, the two of them acted from the very beginning.
Fu Shiyi also acted so attentively, that he presented a brand-new version of himself, looking very much like the hero from the ancient times.
....
"Brother Tang, we have been through life and death several times. What about becoming... sworn brothers in front of the Temple?"
Tang Shaoqi's hand slightly shivered as she took a sip of the wine. She lowered her gaze and said, "I am not going to be your sworn brother."
She showed a shy expression as she lowered her gaze.
Gu Changfeng asked, with a frown, "Why?"
They had been through life and death together so many times, all this time.
They were just like brothers, so why could they not become sworn brothers?
Tang Shaoqi looked at the lake under the setting sun and said slowly, "I am leaving to go home tomorrow."
Gu Changfeng said, as he poured two bowls of wine, "Then let's get drunk tonight, and then I will see you off."
As the evening approached, the two of them were totally drunk.
With one hand over her forehead, Tang Shaoqi started to flush red as she looked at Gu Changfeng who was slumped over the table.
This young Master of the Tang Family started to look gentle, rather than his usual arrogant and cold self.
As her long fingers brushed over Gu Changfeng's handsome face, she leaned forward and whispered, "Do you know why I can't become your sworn brother?"
Her voice was no longer firm, but gentler now.
Gu Changfeng opened his eyes as his friend moved so closely to him.
"...Brother Tang, you look very pretty."
Tang Shaoqi smiled brightly as she said, "Gu Changfeng, we are going to have a fight at Shili Pavilion, tomorrow afternoon."
"If you beat me, I will become your sworn brother."
Having said these words, she got up and disappeared into the darkness.
Gu Changfeng sat up and smiled at the fading figure.
"Okay! See you at Shili Pavilion tomorrow afternoon!"
....
Yi An and the scriptwriter nodded happily as they watched the performance.
"This is better, much better."
They had been thinking that after Tang Shaoqi kissed Gu Changfeng, she would leave a note that would say 'if you beat me in the fight at Shili Pavilion tomorrow afternoon, I will become your sworn brother.'
However, Gu Changfeng did not attend the meeting, and that was when he missed Tang Shaoqi, who had dressed up as a girl.
Later on, when they met again, Tang Shaoqi was already the murderer that turned the Xuanyuan Group into a bloodbath.
And then the two, who were almost sworn brothers, became each other's worst enemy.
Chapter 193: Face or Ability
If the scene was acted properly, Tang Shaoqi would become a role the public both loved and loathed.
If the scene was not done well, Tang Shaoqi would become someone who was completely detested by the public.
Because of this, Mu Weiwei totally showcased how sincere and devoted Tang Shaoqi was, so that she gripped the audience's heart.
Fu Shiyi was also performing extremely well.
He especially acted really well, when he said "Brother Tang, you are so pretty."
The director watched the clip twice in a row and patted Fu Shiyi's shoulders.
"You can work as a capable man, so why are you always aiming to be a pretty man instead?"
Fu Shiyi adjusted his hairstyle and said proudly, "Why must I work as a capable man, when I can just use my face?"
"..." Gu Weiwei's lips twitched.
Yi An rolled his eyes at him speechlessly and turned to Gu Weiwei, looking pleased.
"Weiwei, your school semester starts soon, we can finish your scenes in these next two days, so that you can return as quickly as possible."
Thanks, Director Yi." Gu Weiwei bowed gratefully.
"Then I need to return to make the theme song, I want to finish my scenes too." Fu Shiyi said, sounding displeased.
He only took on this film because he was protecting his brother's girlfriend for him.
Now that she was returning, there was no need for him to stay.
"You still have tons of scenes to make. It's not yet the time for you to return." Yi An glared.
This boy was a skilled actor, but he never wanted to focus upon acting because he had a pretty face.
The two of them made another scene on a different site before returning to the hotel.
Fu Shiyi truly did not want to eat the food served at the hotel, so he borrowed the crew's car and took her out to get some food outside the site.
Since there were always film stars at the film site, it was not a rare thing for the residents to see Fu Shiyi at a restaurant.
The two ordered some dishes and he reported the news to his brother on his phone.
After he had finished the reports, he said, with a bright smile, "We are good friends now, right? Then I had better tell you something."
"What?" Gu Weiwei asked, swallowing a mouthful of water.
"You know how much my second brother had bad mouthed you before?" Fu Shiyi looked angry.
Gu Weiwei smiled deeply. She had seen through his act.
"What did he say about me?"
The two brothers had set each other up and he intended to punish Fu Shiqin through her hands.
"He said that you look like a monster and eat more than a pig, and that you always drool over our eldest brother."
"He even said that you looked terrible wearing low-cut dresses because your breasts were so small."
....
Gu Weiwei gritted her teeth - her breasts were small?!
Her breasts were naturally sized, alright?
She knew that Fu Shiqin was always bad mouthing her back then, but she never expected that he could be so cruel with his words.
"I was not at home back then, so he called me every day, complaining to me. Honestly, how can a man like him, bad mouth a girl behind her back, right?" Fu Shiyi smiled obediently.
"He really did that?" Gu Weiwei looked lethal.
Fu Shiyi nodded. "I can play the recorded audio to you if you don't believe me."
"No thanks, he must have said all of that."
Gu Weiwei snorted. Fu Shiqin had never said anything nice to her in front of her face, let alone behind her back.
"Also, when my brother came to celebrate your birthday with you, he complained to me that you were the cause of all his troubles and because of you, he and the staff of the company had to work overtime."
Fu Shiyi became increasingly annoyed as he spoke, as if Fu Shiqin wasn't bad mouthing her, but him instead.
"It seems that I need to speak with your second brother when I get back." Gu Weiwei snorted.
A flash of a victory smile crossed Fu Shiyi's eyes. Fu Shiqin was definitely going to be in trouble!
Chapter 194: Small Breasts?
In the days that followed, Fu Shiyi kept telling her about how terrible Fu Shiqin had behaved.
Tang Shaoqi had been doing the scenes in the few days that followed until finally, they reached the last scene.
Tang Shaoqi had teamed up with the Jin State and killed a general of the Southern Song Dynasty, who was also one of the murderers that killed the Tang Family years back.
Gu Changfeng and Lin Qingxue joined forces and broke the conspiracy of the Jin State that intended to overthrow the Southern Song Dynasty...
Tang Shaoqi was now being hunted by the righteous men and she had yet to have her meeting with Gu Changfeng, at Shili Pavilion, where they were supposed to have a deadly fight against each other.
Shili Pavilion was located on a cliff and had a view that spanned for miles around.
Like before, Tang Shaoqi showed up alone at the pavilion, waiting for Gu Changfeng to arrive.
She had waited for him here for a whole day, years back, but he had missed the meeting... but today, he was here, intending to take her life.
"Gu Changfeng, why were you not here years back?"
"Why should we talk about the past right now?" Gu Changfeng pulled out his sword and pointed it at the Master of the Tang Family as he said, one word after another,
"It is time for you to pay back the bloodbath debt of the Xuanyuan Group."
Tang Shaoqi laughed self-mockingly, pulled out her blade and turned around, looking lethal.
The two of them had a huge fight in the pavilion, which then collapsed because of the fierceness of their combat.
Finally, Tang Shaoqi lost and died in a pool of her own blood.
She uttered a weak sound as she smiled brightly.
"Gu Changfeng, you have just won."
....
Gu Changfeng buried her on the mount of Shili Pavilion and it was not until many years later when he learnt from others a piece of news.
The Master of the Tang Family was not a man, but a very pretty girl.
The Director said through the loudspeaker happily, "Tang Shaoqi's work is done!"
The crew members set off the fireworks, clapping as they celebrated.
Gu Weiwei got up from the ground, wiped off the fake blood on her face and thanked everyone.
"Go home and take a good rest. There will be promotional pitches coming soon." Yi An said with concern.
"Okay, then let's meet in the capital."
Gu Weiwei waved goodbye to everyone, removed the makeup and quickly got changed.
She had already packed up everything, so she just grabbed her luggage from her hotel room and directly headed to the airport.
It was already one in the morning when she arrived in the capital. When her assistant took their luggage she turned on her phone; Fu Hanzheng's call immediately came through.
"Are you off the plane now?"
Startled, Gu Weiwei realized that it was Fu Shiyi who had revealed her routine to his brother.
"Yes, I just got my luggage."
"Come through the VIP passage, I am waiting." Fu Hanzheng said.
Gu Weiwei hung up, waved goodbye to her assistant and went to the VIP passage with her luggage.
Sure enough, she saw this elegant-looking man waiting at the end of the VIP passage.
Fu Hanzheng took her luggage and said, "Why did you not inform me that you were coming back, ahead of time."
If Fu Shiyi had not told him about the flight, he would not have known that she was coming home today.
"I am so hungry and sleepy." Gu Weiwei threw a very pitiful look at him.
Sure enough, Fu Hanzheng did not ask her anything more, but took her out of the passage and into the car.
The moment she climbed into the car, she saw Fu Shiqin working over a business plan on his laptop. He looked angry just at the sight of Gu Weiwei.
"Why not come back home tomorrow? Why today?"
He was so busy already but he still had to come and pick her up as their driver.
If he had stayed silent, Gu Weiwei would not have thought of what Fu Shiyi had told her these last few days.
"Second Master, I heard that you said that I look like a monster and eat more than a pig?"
"..." Fu Shiqin's lips twitched.
Third Brother, you are going to die wherever you are!
"And you said that my breasts are very small, how did you know that?" Gu Weiwei asked, annoyedly.
"They are not small." Fu Hanzheng said.
"I am not asking you anything!" Gu Weiwei glared at him.
Fu Shiqin was speechless.
Chapter 195: Bed Sharing
The moment they came back to the apartment, Fu Shiqin helped with the luggage. Fu Hanzheng turned to him and said ruthlessly, "I heard that something has happened to the mine in Africa."
Fu Shiqin felt his hair standing up on the back of his neck - something bad was coming.
"Go over there to check on it and don't come back until the problem is solved."
Having said this, Fu Hanzheng went into the dining room and warmed up some dinner for his girlfriend.
"Brother, are you... serious about Africa?"
Fu Shiqin just could not believe that he was being dispatched to sort out the mining in Africa where wild lions and cheetahs roam around!
Wasn't he worried that those animals would eat up his brother?
"Leave tomorrow." Fu Hanzheng said seriously.
"I..." Fu Shiqin felt both annoyed and wronged. "Just because I said that she..."
"She what?" Fu Hanzheng squinted coldly.
"That was before! She kept pestering you and you also complained about her being annoying! Now you are making me take the blame, that is just too cruel!" Fu Shiqin argued.
At that time, he did not know how pretty Mu Weiwei was and he still did not understand why she used to dress so terribly.
Gu Weiwei pulled her luggage back into her room only to find that her room was different.
Her bed was gone... and so was her wardrobe. The entire room had been turned into a walk-in closet and was filled with the latest clothes, from all the expensive brands.
"Where is my room?"
"I bought you too many clothes to fit in the wardrobe, so it has been turned into a walk-in closet." Fu Hanzheng said.
"Then where should I sleep?"
Fu Hanzheng came to her and led her to his room.
"Here is your room."
"Where is yours?" Gu Weiwei gazed at this newly-embellished room in astonishment.
"It is mine too." Fu Hanzheng said.
Gu Weiwei panicked as she saw this new room that looked like a newlyweds room.
First he moved in and then he climbed into her bed. Now, because she was away from home for two months, he tore down her room and forced her to share a room with him.
"I will not sleep well if we share the same bed."
"You will get used to it." Fu Hanzheng said.
They were going to share a bed sooner or later and she had to get used to sleeping by his side.
Gu Weiwei sighed as she felt her forehead. Why did she come back before the filming finished?
If she had waited until school had opened, she could have done the registration and gone to the promotional pitch afterwards.
Now she had to share the same bed with this man.
"Go and wash your hands, your dinner is ready." Fu Hanzheng felt her forehead.
Gu Weiwei gritted her teeth. Anyway, she was going to be away for another one month soon because of the promotion, so she could deal with the current situation for the time being.
She was going to call Jolin tomorrow and beg him to arrange more work for her.
It would be best if she became so busy that she did not have to come home, even for a single day.
She washed her hands and went to the dining room, where Fu Hanzheng had already presented the warmed dishes in front of her.
"Eat first, I need to deal with something."
She nodded, finished the dinner in the dining room and went to take a shower, before changing into her pajamas.
When she went into the room after showering, Fu Hanzheng had already finished his work and was waiting for her in bed.
She took a deep breath and forced herself to climb under the blanket; she then yawned, closed her eyes and started to fall asleep.
Seeing that she was so tired, Fu Hanzheng just kissed her on the lips without doing anything more.
"Good night."
She had thought that she would struggle to sleep throughout the entire night, but in reality she was too sleepy to keep her eyes open and quickly fell asleep after a few minutes.
In the morning, she was kissed awake by Fu Hanzheng.
"Do you need to work today?"
"No, I am off." She answered drowsily, turned around and continued to sleep.
Fu Hanzheng kissed her softly on her lips. "Get up now, come with me to the company."
"Why am I going to your company?" Gu Weiwei asked suddenly.
Shiyi Culture was a subordinate company of Fu's Enterprise; she did not need to visit the headquarters whatsoever.
Fu Hanzheng picked her up and carried her into the walk-in closet.
"Get dressed and keep me company at work."
"..."
Chapter 196: The President's Mysterious Girlfriend
It was busy at the headquarters of Fu's Enterprise.
Directors of all departments had come to the 19th floor early in the morning, waiting for the morning session that was going to take place at nine. They were going to discuss the plan for the new projects as well as the progress of the current ongoing projects.
However, their President, who was always punctual...
Turned out to be running late today!
The directors of all the departments gathered around Xu Qian. "Assistant Xu, can you call the President and ask if he is coming to the company today or not?"
This was because they truly didn't dare to urge the President to come to work.
Xu Qian took a look at the elevator and his lips twitched as he saw the man coming out of the elevator.
"Xu Qian, get ready for the session in ten minutes."
Fu Hanzheng said as he walked past the crowd, holding Gu Weiwei's hand, and into his office.
The directors were dumbfounded as they saw the President coming towards them from the elevator. They just could not believe their eyes.
So the president had... a girl with him at work?
The girl was dressed in a light purple dress with shining, white skin. Her figure was slim and proportioned well.
However, she was wearing a face mask, so it was not possible to see what she looked like but they could see her eyes which weren't hidden. She had long eyelashes and from what they could see, she looked very pretty.
The Director of the Planning Department dropped his freshly-brewed coffee and the other directors all wore expressions of amazement, as they saw the
President going into his office, holding the girl's hand.
Gu Weiwei arrived home at two am the night before and did not go to bed until three in the morning.
She was in the middle of sleeping when she was forced to come to the company, so she dozed off the moment she slumped down onto the sofa.
Fu Hanzheng also understood that she had not had a good night's sleep the night before but she was leaving soon.
So he must have her with him wherever he goes.
"I am going to the meeting, lie down on the sofa and sleep."
Gu Weiwei nodded with drowsy eyes, kicked off her shoes and was already falling asleep.
Fu Hanzheng picked up the phone and dialed the internal line.
"Xu Qian, get her a blanket."
One minute later, Xu Qian came in with a thin blanket.
Fu Hanzheng covered her up with the blanket, removed her mask and said to Xu Qian.
"No one is allowed to come into my office today."
"Got it, Boss." Xu Qian nodded and told the secretary.
Outside the President's office, the directors with tens of millions of yuan as their yearly salary, all gazed at the door of the office.
Every single one of them, expected to suddenly be able to see through the door, just so they could take a look at what the mysterious girl looked like.
One newly appointed man said, "The President's girlfriend can't be Manager Meng, she does not look like her."
"To hell with Manager Meng, here is the real girlfriend!"
"You are way behind the curve - the President has never said that Manager Meng is his girlfriend, let alone having a date with her!"
"This girl is apparently much younger and prettier than Manager Meng."
"President keeps buying diamonds and roses, all for this girl. He has spoiled her rotten!"
....
As the office door opened, the crowd instantly rushed into the meeting room.
Fu Hanzheng spoke as soon as he entered the meeting room.
"We'll start with the Planning Department."
The director opened his files and his face visibly turned shocked.
Damn, all the gossiping had made him bring in the wrong file.
"What is it?" Fu Hanzheng frowned.
The Director said discreetly, "Sorry, I got the wrong file."
The other directors shot him a sympathetic look. When someone else made such a mistake last time, he was almost fired.
They were just about to feel sorry for this director, when the strict President said, "Go and get the right one now." He spoke very gently.
The Director was so shocked that he did not come back to himself, until his colleague elbowed him.
They had always been on the last of their fraying nerves at meetings but surprisingly, they found that the president of today was incredibly gentle.
As the session came to the halfway point, and all the plans were presented, the discussion and debating of ideas started.
Fu Hanzheng looked down and checked the time. He turned and whispered to Xu Qian, "Buy some breakfast and bring it to the office."
She might get up soon and be hungry; she had missed breakfast this morning.
Chapter 197: Spoiled
Gu Weiwei slept for more than an hour and felt that she was full of energy when she woke up.
Xu Qian entered the office with a freshly made breakfast. "Miss. Mu, here is your breakfast."
"Thank you."
Gu Weiwei took it without hesitating, she happened to be feeling rather hungry.
"Anything else you need, Miss. Mu?"
Gu Weiwei did not think that eating breakfast on the sofa was very practical or comfortable, so she carried the food over to Fu Hanzheng's desk.
"The meeting is not finished yet?"
"The project is not going well, so the meeting may last longer than expected." Xu Qian replied honestly.
Gu Weiwei nodded. "Okay, you can go now."
Sitting in the office alone, she ate breakfast as she sized up Fu Hanzheng's office.
Sure enough, the office style was as boring as him.
She had just eaten half of her breakfast when Fu Hanzheng returned from the meeting.
Seeing her occupying the desk, he asked Xu Qian to put the delivered files onto the table, and sat down on the sofa to work.
"In fifteen minutes, tell them to send in an even more detailed analysis report." He said as he glanced at Gu Weiwei sitting at his desk.
"Or tell them to meet in the office."
"No need, this place will do." Gu Weiwei said, she then finished eating her breakfast, put on the mask and used his desk and computer to play online games.
When Fu Shiqin and the Manager of the Operation Department, as well as the other directors of the Planning Department, entered the office, they spotted the President's desk.
This place, which was considered as 'the King's Seat', was currently occupied by a pretty girl... and their President was forced to work on the sofa instead.
They were just discreetly reporting their updated analysis, when suddenly a sound arose from the direction of the desk.
"First Blood!"
The Manager of the Operation Department glanced in the direction of the desk, his lips twitching.
He cleared his throat and was about to continue with the report when another sound arose from behind the computer.
"Double Kill!"
Gritting his teeth, Fu Shiqin glared at Gu Weiwei.
"We are in the middle of a meeting!"
He had just thrown an angry look at Gu Weiwei when he received an equally cold look from his brother.
Then, he turned to Gu Weiwei seated behind the desk and softly said, "Continue with your game, don't mind about us."
"...." Fu Shiqin felt heartbroken.
Someone had made a rule of not playing any games in the company and when he used to take breaks and have some fun... one month of his salary was removed.
Yet this same 'someone', was allowing his girlfriend to use his computer and play games right in front of his staff!
The Director of the Planning Department glanced at the girl, who was focused on playing her games, in the King's Seat and realized that because their boss spoiled this girl rotten, she was going to be their future Mrs. President.
The staff managed to finish delivering the report with the sound of gaming as their background.
The President was being incredibly kind and gentle, almost making everyone be moved to tears.
When the report was finished, Fu Shiqin started complaining the moment he stepped out of the office.
"Damn it brother! I play games and get fined whilst she is allowed to do anything!"
However, the staff who followed him out of the office said, "Second Master, do you know the President's girlfriend personally?"
"Yes, what's the problem?"
Fu Shiqin gritted his teeth in loathing the moment he thought about having to board the plane, for Africa, tonight.
The Director of the Planning Department said sincerely, with his hands clasped together, "Please, convince her to keep the President company at work every single day, please!"
When she was around, the President was in a good mood and when the President was in a good mood, everyone would have a wonderful time.
Chapter 198: The Enemy Is Here
The news that the President had brought his girlfriend with him to work, had spread all over the headquarters.
One female employee from the Marketing Department happened to witness the scene, when she was delivering documents up to the 19th floor. When she returned to the Marketing Department, she announced excitedly, "Breaking news! Really Breaking News!"
"You saw the President again?" One female employee asked with a smile, as she was doing her makeup.
All the female employees at Fu's Enterprise drooled over Fu Hanzheng.
"No, I saw the President with his girlfriend, here at work!"
Some people from the Public Relations Department drew closer to them as they heard the gossip from the opposite side.
"That must have been Manager Meng, right?"
Manager Meng had not yet shown up at the company, so she must be on the 19th floor with the President.
The gossiping girl snorted at the woman who was wearing heavy makeup.
"I am sorry, but it is not Manager Meng that I saw with him, but instead someone who is much younger and prettier than her!"
"What does she look like?" The women from the Marketing Department asked curiously.
"She was wearing a mask so I could not see her face but her skin is really smooth, just like an egg without a shell! Her eyelashes are long and curly, I am so jealous!"
"Wearing a mask? The President's girlfriend would never wear a mask, you must have seen it wrong." The female employee from the Public Relations Department snorted.
Every woman who had Fu Hanzheng with her, would never try to conceal her face.
"Believe it or not, everyone on the 19th floor saw the President coming out of the elevator with her, hand in hand!"
"Hand in hand?! I don't think Manager Meng has ever been hand in hand with the President at all."
"Anyway, she always thinks of herself as the next Mrs. President, but the President has never acknowledged her like that. The real Mrs. President is here today!"
"True, Manager Meng keeps on flattering Mrs. Fu every day and assumes that she is the next Mrs President already!"
....
Women tend to have problems with each other and many female employees of the Marketing Department did not like Meng Ruya. Especially when she kept putting on the air of the next Mrs. President.
They were still gossiping when Meng Ruya appeared in the doorway. They all fell silent.
Meng Ruya was smiling as she was passing by the office of the Marketing Department, yet when she returned to the office at the Public Relations Department her face had sunk.
"Manager Meng, don't take their words seriously. Mrs. Fu has said that no one other than you is suitable for the Fu Family." The employee said in a flattering tone.
Manager Meng was elegant and graceful, born from a rich family, and she was liked by Mrs. Fu. So she was definitely going to become the future Mrs. President!
"No more gossiping at work! Give me the promotion plan for the new project in one hour." Meng Ruya returned to her own office without turning around.
She had not found out who the b*tch by Fu Hanzheng's side was after she had tried so hard for two months and today, she had come to the company!
She waited for an hour and then the promotional plan was finally delivered into her hands.
Meng Ruya did her makeup calmly and walked over to the elevator with the promotional plan in hand.
She was going to see who on earth had made Fu Hanzheng so possessed!
She had just walked out of the elevator and was about to enter the office when Xu Qian stopped her.
"Manager Meng, just leave the promotional plan with me."
His boss had gotten so angry last time about what had happened, so unless it was for the working report, he would never have dared to let this woman in.
"I need to make a statement to President Fu in person." Meng Ruya said in a very diplomatic way.
Xu Qian thought for a while and said, "President Fu is in the middle of a meeting, you can go there to deliver the report."
Meng Ruya went into the meeting room with the file, yet failed to find the woman Fu Hanzheng had brought with him.
When she thought that Xu Qian was stopping her from entering the office, she realized that the girl must be inside Fu Hanzheng's office.
She was just thinking about how to reveal that woman's face after delivering the report, when a girl in a light purple dress entered the meeting room.
"Fu Hanzheng..."
Chapter 199: Filled with Love
This voice sounded very familiar.
Meng Ruya threw a sharp look at the girl entering the room. She looked very familiar and sounded very familiar too.
It seemed as if they had met somewhere before.
Gu Weiwei was about to speak when she saw Meng Ruya, who was gazing at her. She could not help but frown.
Meng Ruya went to Jinxiu Compound with Mrs. Fu, in a surprise visit last time, and today she must have learnt of her arrival, so she came to figure out who she was.
Meng Ruya was not someone she needed to fear but if she learnt about her real identity, she would definitely tell Mrs. Fu.
Mrs. Fu did not like her and if she knew she was with Fu Hanzheng, she would definitely try all that she could to cause her trouble.
She was in the middle of establishing a career in the film industry and she truly did not want any trouble coming her way.
Fu Hanzheng leaned forward and asked. "Need anything?"
Gu Weiwei glanced at the staff in the meeting room and a touch of a sinister smile, flashed across her eyes. Then she put on a very flirty tone and said, "Darling, my friends have asked me to have afternoon tea with them, can I go out for a while?"
Fu Shiqin, who was in the middle of drinking some water, spit out everything in his mouth and shivered as all of the hair on his body stood on end.
The top managers of Fu's Enterprise shivered and glanced at their boss in disbelief - so their president liked this type of woman?
Fu Hanzheng raised his eyebrows. "No."
Gu Weiwei stamped her feet. "You won't play with me, and I am not allowed to go out either. You are such a naughty boy."
Fu Shiqin shook the wet files and glared at Gu Weiwei who had just morphed into a monster.
He needed a sword to slay her!
However, his brother was not frightened by how she behaved and said, with a joyful smile, "Wait for another half an hour. I will take you to lunch after the meeting."
"But I want to go out to play now."
Gu Weiwei had failed to scare Fu Hanzheng, but had managed to frighten herself.
"Baby, just wait for a few more moments." Fu Hanzheng said. He then reached out to her and asked her to sit down on the empty chair.
Those high ranking managers almost fell off their chairs, when they heard him calling her 'baby'.
Seeing that she was unable to leave or continue speaking in such a flirty way any more... Gu Weiwei sat down next to him and texted Ji Cheng and Luo Qianqian that she would not be able to make it.
Having appeased his girlfriend, Fu Hanzheng turned to the staff and said seriously, "Continue."
Exact half an hour later, the meeting was dismissed.
Meng Ruya picked up the files, stood up to go over to Gu Weiwei and said, with a concerned smile, "Miss, don't you feel hot wearing a mask right now?"
Why was she wearing a mask on such a hot day?
Hearing these words, Gu Weiwei took hold of Fu Hanzheng's arm and said, "My honey says that I am too pretty to be exposed to anyone else. I am only for him to look at."
Having said this, she raised her head and asked Fu Hanzheng, "Isn't that true, my dearest?"
Fu Shiqin just could not stand it any more. He was on the verge of flipping the table! Why was she talking in such a strange way?
Now he had lost his appetite.
"Yes." Fu Hanzheng answered cooperatively.
Meng Ruya gritted her teeth, feeling extremely curious about who she was.
But Fu Hanzheng was here, so she couldn't just rip off her mask to see what she looked like.
Fu Hanzheng exchanged a few words with the manager of the Operation Department and said, "Everyone, time for lunch. We will have a long-distance call with the partner of S Land."
They watched the usually cold and distant President leave happily with his girlfriend.
The sight filled with love, made them lose their appetites.
Chapter 200: Gu Siting and A Child
Fu Hanzheng took her out for lunch, after seeing that she had been trapped in the office for the entire morning.
However, he didn't know very much about the restaurants in the neighbourhood, so he asked his brother Fu Shiqin to come along.
Fu Shiqin recommended a private restaurant, and he started to order food as soon as he sat down because he always visited here.
"Give the menu to her." Fu Hanzheng glared at him.
He was taking his girlfriend out for lunch, not him.
Fu Shiqin gave the menu to Gu Weiwei obediently and asked his brother, as he gazed at him, "Brother, have you been possessed?"
"What do you mean?" Fu Hanzheng asked.
"She was being so flirty just now and no one was able to stand it, but you still allowed her to make a fuss in the meeting room." Fu Shiqin felt ill when he thought of what had happened.
However, unlike him, his brother wasn't disgusted and enjoyed her flirtiness.
He seriously suspected that his brother had been possessed by this woman.
Gu Weiwei was reviewing the menu as she said, "Second Master, I think that you are definitely going to be a very promising miner in Africa, what about staying there for a few more months?"
"Me..." Fu Shiqin pointed at himself and swallowed down all of his complaints.
Gu Weiwei ordered a dish and glanced at Fu Hanzheng.
"Honestly speaking, you were not disgusted?"
Fu Hanzheng raised his lips. "I think it was lovely."
Especially when she called him 'honey, darling'.
"..." Gu Weiwei's lip corners twitched.
The dishes were soon served. Fu Shiqin was about to reach out for the ribs, when his brother removed the dish and placed it in front of Gu Weiwei and replaced it with a dish of sliced meat and bittermelon.
Fu Shiqin bit his chopsticks. He should have stayed in the company for takeaway.
Throughout the entire lunch, all the dishes that had been reached for by Gu Weiwei over three times, had been placed in front of her... whilst those that were not touched by her came to his side instead.
Gu Weiwei finished her food and went to the bathroom.
He had just gotten two pieces of ribs into his bowl when the phone rang. He wiped his hands instantly and answered the call when he saw the incoming caller.
After the phone call, he looked slightly serious.
"You were right. The project has run into a problem because of Gu's Enterprise."
Fu Hanzheng's face dimme and he fiddled with the teacup.
"Who else dares to fight against the Fu Family except for him."
The Fu Family and the Gu Family were always on bad terms with each other, and they were each other's worst enemies in the business field.
Fu Shiqin drank a mouthful of water and complained, "Gu Siting must be crazy! He keeps causing us trouble these past two years and he always wants to have a hand in whatever we are doing!"
Fu Hanzheng glanced a look at him. "Anything else?"
Gu Siting was a sneaky man, and he had to be careful in case he took advantage of the situation.
Fu Shiqin thought for a while and said, "The information says that Gu Siting is seeking a child."
"A child?" Fu Hanzheng frowned.
"Yes, someone around three or four years old, but I'm not sure who it is."
Fu Hanzheng lowered his gaze and said after some consideration, "Keep up with the investigation, better find out who he is looking for. Find that child before he does."
The child Gu Siting was seeking must be of great importance to him.
Fu Shiqin nodded and mumbled as something flashed across his mind.
"Do you think it is a child from an affair?"
Gu Weiwei had just come back from the bathroom and was about to enter the room, when she heard the name of Gu Siting.
She stiffened as she stood outside the door, feeling faint as she heard the conversation between Fu Hanzheng and Fu Shiqin.
She had once thought that she knew Gu Siting well.
After rebirth, she realized that actually, she did not know him that well at all.
Who was the child he was looking for?
