?

Xu Zhaozhao snapped out of her daze at the question, and the fifth yawn she hadn't even managed to form vanished instantly.

I remembered the game she had spontaneously suggested in the courtyard...

"cough."

Xu Zhaozhao tilted her head. "I forgot to tell you, the game doesn't start until tomorrow. Most of today has already passed. It's such a waste to play games now."

She's the one who sets the rules; she's the one who calls the shots.

"Oh well."

Xu Zhaozhao couldn't see his expression clearly, but she inexplicably felt that he looked like a wronged little dog.

"You need to work properly. Don't you know how many days you've missed?"

Xu Zhaozhao used her PUA technique, poking him, "A man who doesn't work hard is unwanted."

"Okay. I'll accept the call tomorrow."

He had barely finished speaking when he changed his wording again, saying, "No, we need to issue a supplementary announcement."

Reject Versailles!

Xu Zhaozhao successfully drove him out.

He changed his clothes in the dressing room and then went out.

Xu Zhaozhao could hear the engine sound very clearly in the quiet room.

For a long time after he left, Xu Zhaozhao's heartbeat wouldn't come down.

He raised his hand and looked at the white jade bracelet in his hand.

Although the room lights weren't very bright, the light reflected off the bracelet was quite beautiful.

Putting everything else aside, Gu Qingyan is a very good marriage prospect.

At least in this world, we can protect her well.

Xu Zhaozhao really just wanted to play this game with him on a whim.

The biggest problem between her and Gu Qingyan is their inequality, which she cannot accept, and Gu Qingyan will not change.

Let alone three days, he might not be able to do it even in thirty years.

Xu Zhaozhao prepared to launch a delaying tactic.

Once her baby fish grows up, she'll dump Gu Qingyan.

This world ultimately belongs to the male protagonist and the main villain.

Ideals are very beautiful.

Xu Zhaozhao could have fallen asleep quickly by herself in the big bed, but she overthought things and lay there for a full hour without feeling sleepy.

Gu Qingyan was constantly floating around in my mind.

Finally, unable to stay awake any longer, Xu Zhaozhao fell asleep.

The consequence of staying up all night is that I don't wake up until noon the next day.

The first thing I did was reach for my phone. I didn't feel it when I was asleep, but as soon as I woke up, I could feel the phone buzzing and vibrating.

I squinted as I unlocked my phone; it was a message from Sister Yan.

Sister Yan: Sister, you're amazing! I stayed up all night finding new dramas for my artist, and filming resumed the very next day. [Thumbs up]

Yan Jie: Dear Zhao Jie~ Why are you ignoring me?

Yan Jie: Never mind, go to sleep. You probably don't even know about the restarting of recording.

Yan Jie: The female lead and male lead have been changed, as have a few minor supporting characters, but everything else remains the same.

Sister Yan: Luckily, my artist wasn't replaced. I spent all night looking at scripts and there really weren't any good ones. [Sleepy][Sleepy]

...

Xu Zhaozhao looked at the WeChat message sent by Sister Yan.

My mind is a little foggy.

Who is whose agent?

What? Filming has resumed?

It took Xu Zhaozhao a long time to process what she had just realized.

Director Dai's film "Holding an Umbrella for Her" has resumed filming!!

Holy crap!

Xu Zhaozhao immediately uttered a phrase from the national treasure, and sat up with her somewhat messy hair.

Shh: You guys are filming now?! !!! [Shocked][Shocked]

Sister Yan: What are you thinking? =-=

Sister Yan: Director Dai called the people from yesterday back, and they're setting up the scene now.

Sister Yan: I brought my young artist to help out, to give her some exposure.

Xu Zhaozhao was so frightened she almost exploded.

"Director Dai hates people who are late" has been etched into Xu Zhaozhao's DNA; she wouldn't dare to be late even if she had a million lives.

So... why did this movie start filming again?

It's impossible for Mr. Wang to invest any more, right?

This kind of thing can't be found online; it's a capitalist matter. You might as well ask Sister Yan directly.

Shh: Dear Yan-jie~ Do you know why this movie suddenly started filming again?

Shh: No offense, I just can't stand the next CEO Wang. [Laughing][Laughing]

Yan Jie: [Damn it.jpg]

Sister Yan: Shengting has invested, my dear shareholder~ [Grinning face]

Xu, dear shareholder Zhaozhao: ...

If anyone invests in a movie that Mr. Wang has withdrawn his investment from, it's like they're going against Mr. Wang.

Besides the Holy Court, there is no other entertainment company to be found.

Xu Zhaozhao immediately thought of Gu Qingyan.

After exiting Yan Jie's chat page, I noticed another red dot that was from "Little Pig".

Piglet: The game has begun today.

It was sent at 6 a.m. this morning.

I sent her another message at 11 o'clock.

Piglet: I'm getting ready for an interview, so I might not be able to reply to messages right away. [Pity]

Piglet: I also worked hard today.

Xu Zhaozhao was somewhat dazed.

Gu Qingyan seems to still be the same Gu Qingyan.

Gu Qingyan always informs her on WeChat before doing anything.

Shh: [Rose]

Please reply, lest this hardworking man skips work and comes back to find her again.

After washing up, Xu Zhaozhao was fully awake.

I finally mustered the courage to open Weibo.

It's been a night, the hype should have died down by now, right?

In fact, as soon as she opened it, the homepage recommendations were all that photo.

Son, look what you've done!

Xu Zhaozhao was momentarily disoriented, unsure whether to browse the homepage, trending topics, or the comments section...

Just as I was hesitating, another system message popped up in the top pop-up window.

[Your special follower @顾清延v's "Mini Interview" is currently being streamed live, come check it out! >>>]

Xu Zhaozhao honestly clicked in to take a look.

Unexpectedly, the interview Gu Qingyan participated in was broadcast live.

It took Xu Zhaozhao a full minute to squeeze into the live stream room; the barrage of comments was so thick that she couldn't even see the screen clearly.

The number of online viewers above was simply shortened to 1 million+, truly demonstrating Gu Qingyan's terrifying online traffic.

After turning off the subtitles, I could finally see the screen clearly.

Xu Zhaozhao recognized this background.

In front of the floor-to-ceiling window in Gu Qingyan's office.

There were two sofas, one for the male host and the other for Gu Qingyan.

He was dressed in a formal suit, his eyes lowered as he intently looked at the magazine in his hands, his legs crossed, and his pointed leather shoes reflecting the light.

Clearly, it wasn't just Xu Zhaozhao who couldn't resist Gu Qingyan.

Out of curiosity, she clicked on the bullet comments, and a comment that read "My husband is so handsome! [smirk]" popped right up to her face.

I want to cook with my husband! [crying]

Why are you wearing such expensive shoes on the floor! Stepping on me!!

Sisters, be a little more reserved!! Let me touch your balls first [begging]

...

Goodness.

Xu Zhaozhao quickly turned off the live comments.

The male host then asked the next question.

"Here is a question from a netizen: You are extremely wealthy, good-looking, and the youngest actor to win all three major film awards. Do you have any worries in your life?"

"Of course there are."

Gu Qingyan's voice was calm, and his eyes never left the magazine in his hands.

"My recent worry is, how can I make the person I like like me back?"
