Chapter 63: Really Fragrance
"Sister Li, do you have any plans after [Chinatown Detective]?"
"Um~ I don't have any plans for now. Maybe I'll go back to the art troupe to rehearse a drama." Zeng Li tilted his head back, put his elbows on the table, pointed his chin with his slender fingers, thought for a while and said.
Gu Wei curled his lips after hearing this, "You really are a 'Buddhist' person. I've never seen a star like you."
"What does 'Buddhist' mean?" Zeng Li asked, tilting his head slightly and looking at Gu Wei with a puzzled look.
Gu Wei just remembered that the term "Buddha-style" didn't exist in 2013. The term originated in a Japanese magazine in 2014, which introduced the concept of "Buddha-style men" and later became popular online.
"The key to 'Buddha-style' is the word 'Buddha'. It refers to a life attitude of being free from desire, indifferent, and pursuing inner peace. Doesn't it resemble your current attitude towards work?"
"What? I'm not without desires. I just feel that it's good this way sometimes. I don't have to pursue anything too deliberately." Zeng Li thought for a while and said.
"But Sister Li, we are in the entertainment industry. Everyone in this industry is chasing fame and fortune. Which actor doesn't want to become famous overnight, become a big star, enjoy flowers and applause, and make a lot of money?"
"I want to do that too. It would be best if I could act, and it would be even better if I could become famous. But if I can't do that, there's no need to force it. My life now is not bad either.
Becoming famous is about living a better life, but if you try to achieve it against your will, isn't that putting the cart before the horse? Zeng Li is a person with ideas and personality, pursuing fame and fortune without being bound by them.
"Sister Li, there are very few people like you in this circle. Most people are still trying to climb up at all costs and will do anything to become famous."
Gu Wei sighed and said, "In order to not go against your own wishes as you said, let's do one."
Then raise your glass.
Zeng Li also raised his glass with a smile.
"I've been talking for a long time, what are your plans for the future?
I see that you have become a movie star at such a young age, and now you have become a director.
By the way, you are still an investor.
What direction do you want to develop in the future?"
Zeng Li was still very curious about Gu Wei.
Although this little brother is only in his second year of college, his resume is already amazing.
Investing in and starring in a hit movie, and then writing, directing and starring in another big-budget movie, this is a goal that many people in the industry will never achieve in their lifetime.
"As for me, my thoughts are very simple. If there is a script or role that I like, I will act in it. If I have an idea in my mind, I will plan a project to film it. I do whatever makes me happy. Isn't happiness the most important thing in life?
I just hope you can keep my mind straight and I can do whatever I want."
Gu Wei said lightly, looking into the distance indifferently, picking up the wine glass and taking a sip.
He certainly had his own plans for what he wanted to do and what he could do. But when it came to bragging, he was never one to be outdone. He'd just pretend first, since what he said wasn't a lie anyway.
"I particularly admire people like you who have their own ideas and the ability to realize them."
Zeng Li listened to what Gu Wei said, looking at his face with her beautiful eyes, and there seemed to be stars twinkling in her eyes.
"Gu Wei, I wanted to tell you before. When we held the press conference in China, I always felt that you became more handsome."
"Maybe it's because beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Sister Li, do you think I, this 'Xi Shi', am beautiful?"
Gu Wei teased.
"I think you look more like Dong Shi than Xi Shi."
The two of them chatted and laughed, and under this beautiful night, they drank the wine particularly smoothly.
Happy times are always short. After a few glasses of wine, Zeng Li drank a little too much and Gu Wei also felt a little dizzy.
"Sister Li, it's getting late. I've booked two rooms in the hotel downstairs. Let's stay here today." Gu Wei was still very attentive.
"Okay, I'll listen to you~" Zeng Li's condition was not very good.
Gu Wei called Chen Zhixi from the crew and told her about the situation there, telling her not to worry and that he would be back tomorrow morning.
After all, they were abroad, and the director and the heroine didn't return to the hotel late at night. A "housekeeper" like Chen Zhixi would definitely be anxious.
Then I communicated with the hotel staff and found out that the Mode Sathorn Hotel was downstairs from the bar and they had two adjacent rooms.
"Sister Li, the room is ready. I'll take you back to your room to rest."
Zeng Li stood up from the chair, but suddenly her body went limp and fell to the side. Gu Wei hurried forward to support her.
In this way, Gu Wei helped Zeng Li to her hotel room, walked through the living room and into the bedroom.
He held Zeng Li's shoulders with both hands and placed her carefully on the bed. Zeng Li grabbed Gu Wei's clothes and lay on the bed while Gu Wei leaned over in front of her.
She opened her eyes and looked at Gu Wei. Their eyes met, and they could feel each other's breath on their faces.
Gu Wei supported Zeng Li all the way as they walked over. Because both of them were wearing very light clothes, the unprecedented close contact between them allowed Zeng Li to feel Gu Wei's strong body at all times.
The sturdy body, the well-defined muscles, and the scent of male hormones from Gu Wei had already made Zeng Li blush.
She stared at Gu Wei's face with her big eyes and grabbed his clothes tightly with both hands.
"Gu Wei~Don't go~"
At this moment, Gu Wei's head was also a little dizzy. After hearing this request, he looked at the beautiful big sister in front of him and leaned down.
The next morning, Gu Wei woke up on time. Although he had used up some energy the previous night, it was not a big amount of exercise for him with his current physical condition of [89].
In contrast to him, Zeng Li was extremely tired and probably couldn't get out of bed without half a day's rest.
Although Zeng Li is the female lead, she doesn't have many scenes, so there will be no scenes for her today.
Gu Wei is different, he is the director, if he doesn’t come, the crew can’t start work.
Gu Wei thought about it and did not wake up Zeng Li who was sleeping soundly. He got up carefully, put on his clothes, wrote a note and put it on the bedside.
Then he leaned over and gently kissed Zeng Li on the forehead.
Zeng Li seemed to sense something and a sweet smile appeared on her face.
Coming out of the room, Gu Wei gently closed the door, went downstairs to the hotel lobby, and called a taxi through the front desk.
Drive to the crew in a hurry.
After a while, the car arrived at the crew, Gu Wei got out of the car and walked straight towards the director team.
The staff along the way saw Gu Wei and greeted him, "Hello, Director! Hello, Director!"
Gu Wei also responded to them with a smile.
"Director Huang, are you ready for today's filming?"
Gu Wei walked up to Director Huang and asked.
"Director, everything's arranged. We'll be filming the scenes at the police station today." Director Huang was busy, and when he heard Gu Wei's question, he quickly answered and handed him a storyboard.
Gu Wei took it and flipped through it. Today's scene was a scene in the police station in the early part of the movie. Gu Wei and Wang Baoqiang were not involved. The whole scene was performed by Chen He and Xiao Yang. However, Gu Wei liked this scene very much.
