Who is Luo Qi? I don't know her.

[Ah, so it's Luo Qi! A sore loser! With acting skills like that, is she even acting? I just laugh.]

[Because he's not as skilled as others, he squeezed into the production team with the help of a wealthy patron, only to be slinked out, and now he's resorting to sabotage?]

Gu Lingyang's fans even came to quell the controversy: "Our brother would never stoop to giving favors. With his status, plenty of directors would give him roles just to get him on the team. Why would he need to pull strings?"

[I do know this young lady; she's our brother's assistant. She does her job very well, always has a smile on her face, is incredibly sunny and cheerful, and not at all spoiled. Looking at that smiling face, I think our brother must feel relaxed and happy even when he's tired from filming, right?]

[We can find another assistant, but good actors are hard to come by. This young lady must be very talented to have caught the eye of the director and the actor.]

Someone sent the message to Director Zhu.

Director Zhu narrowed his eyes, feeling somewhat relieved to see that Su Zhihan wasn't being universally criticized.

"Now it's Xiao Jun's turn to film her scenes. You guys shoot a short video and we'll put it online later."

Since Luo Qi hired online trolls to spread rumors that Su Zhihan was just an assistant and didn't know how to act, he would directly use facts to refute them.

If her competition with Luo Qi was merely a forced situation, now that Su Zhihan has figured it out, she wants to act, and she cherishes this opportunity.

She treats every scene as if it were her last, and strives to do her best in every scene.

As soon as Su Zhihan entered the camera's view, her entire demeanor changed; she had already gotten into character.

She was so immersed in the role of Xiao Jun that her acting didn't feel like acting at all; it was as if she were Xiao Jun herself. She thoroughly enjoyed this feeling of acting, and it was very natural, as if she had become one with the character.

Staff members filmed Su Zhihan acting and posted a clip of the video on Weibo.

Director Zhu released an official statement: "A hidden gem of a girl, discovered by chance. It would have been a loss for this show if she hadn't played Xiao Jun. Fortunately, fate sent her to this production team."

Those who are following this story are repeatedly watching the video, filled with anticipation.

I read this novel seven or eight times back then. Later, I even paid to follow the manga. I still have it now, and sometimes when I'm feeling down or bored, I reread the classic scenes. This novel really moved and inspired me, especially Xiao Jun; I love her so much. I feel like Xiao Jun represents most ordinary girls. We are ordinary, but we don't accept our fate; we keep striving to live the life we ​​want with our own hands.

Online comments took a complete turn after the video was released.

In the resort villa on the island, Fu Chenyuan had prepared lunch. He opened the kitchen door, put the dishes on the table, and called out, "Wanwan, lunch is ready."

No one answered.

Fu Chenyuan glanced around and saw that Jiang Wanning wasn't in the living room. He went to the study, but no one was there either.

Fu Chenyuan went outside and saw Jiang Wanning slumped on the swing set, fast asleep.

The top of the swing set is covered with climbing vines, whose leaves grow thick and lush, casting large patches of shade.

The surrounding greenery also served as a screen.

Because it's by the sea, the damp sea breeze brings coolness to this hot summer day, driving away the heat and making people feel especially relaxed.

Jiang Wanning hadn't slept well yesterday, and after being exhausted by Fu Chenyuan for a long time after waking up today, she was really sleepy right now.

She was watching the waves, but as she watched, her eyelids grew heavy, and she drifted off to sleep.

Fu Chenyuan came to Jiang Wanning, squatted down in front of her, and looked up at her.

His moon, his wife, his intense love—it all seemed to have nowhere to go.

Fu Chenyuan watched Jiang Wanning for as long as she slept.

Jiang Wanning wasn't actually sleeping very soundly; she wanted to wake up, but her eyes were a little hard to open.

She seemed to be dreaming about the past again; in the dream, Lin Lin locked her in a small, dark room.

She hugged her knees and curled up into a small ball.

Suddenly, a hand reached out to her.

"Young Miss, I'll take you out." It was Fu Chenyuan's voice.

Jiang Wanning suddenly opened her eyes and saw Fu Chenyuan right in front of her.

The intense love in Fu Chenyuan's eyes was more dazzling than the sunlight, as if it would burn people and make them unable to look directly at him.

Jiang Wanning's heart was trembling.

She felt she didn't love Fu Chenyuan that much yet.

She liked Fu Chenyuan very much.

But Fu Chenyuan's love for her was so intense that it could not be ignored.

Jiang Wanning met Fu Chenyuan's eyes, which were filled with deep affection, and reached out to touch Fu Chenyuan's cheek.

Fu Chenyuan's face is so handsome, it's mesmerizing.

She planted a kiss on Fu Chenyuan's forehead.

It's okay, wait for her, wait for her some more. One day, she will love Fu Chenyuan more and more.

She couldn't help but love Fu Chenyuan, who was like this.

She kissed Fu Chenyuan on the forehead and then pulled away. The next second, she moved to Fu Chenyuan's lips and gently placed a kiss on them.

Just as she was about to leave, Fu Chenyuan grabbed the back of her head with his large hand, preventing her from going far away.

A more lingering kiss followed, first on the corner of the lips, then finally covering the entire mouth, tender and passionate.

Jiang Wanning subconsciously closed her eyes; Fu Chenyuan was too alluring.

At this time, she is often powerless to resist.

Fu Chenyuan could sense Jiang Wanning's efforts to counterattack, but the initiative always quickly slipped back into his hands.

When their lips parted, their breathing became somewhat rapid.

He remained in the position of looking up at her.

"Are you hungry, honey? Dinner's ready." His extremely ordinary words carried the warmth of everyday life and the feeling of home, which softened Jiang Wanning's heart.

Jiang Wanning stood up, only to find that Fu Chenyuan was still in that position.

"What's wrong with you? Aren't you getting up?"

Fu Chenyuan reached out his hand to Jiang Wanning: "I can't get up. Pull me down, my legs are numb."

Jiang Wanning's eyes widened, and she reached out her hand. Fu Chenyuan grasped it, and he stood up, seemingly to verify that what he had just said was not false. He then leaned towards Jiang Wanning.

Jiang Wanning hurriedly grabbed Fu Chenyuan's waist and supported him.

Fu Chenyuan leaned most of his weight on her, and he even held onto the swing with one hand to steady himself.

This makes Fu Chenyuan seem somewhat vulnerable, which further arouses people's protective instincts.

Jiang Wanning asked, "How long have you been squatting like that?"

Fu Chenyuan laughed: "I don't know. Anyway, I didn't see you after I finished cooking, so I came here and saw you sleeping soundly. I couldn't bear to wake you. I watched you for as long as you slept."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wanning couldn't help but show a helpless yet sweet smile: "Silly boy."

But that's probably how it is when you're in love, right? You can't help but do some silly things, and your IQ seems to drop offline.
