"Once I finish reading this novel, I'll know what kind of person Qingniang is!"
Zhou Cheng said, "The same goes for scripts."
“It’s different!” Qiao Nansheng shook her head, strongly disagreeing with what he said: “The script has been changed into a mess, it doesn’t have the feel of the original novel at all.”
Zhou Cheng: I can tell you just want to see pornographic content, don't think I don't know.
He sneered, gave her a meaningful look, said nothing, and then continued to look at the documents.
Qiao Nansheng leaned closer: "Zhou Cheng~ Chengcheng~ Husband~"
The man, who had been looking down at the documents, let out another cold laugh upon hearing this: "So you only call me 'husband' when you need something, huh?"
"..."
Qiao Nan blinked, defending herself: "I didn't!"
Zhou Cheng ignored her and didn't tell her exactly what was so explicit or violent about it.
Seeing that he wouldn't tell her, Qiao Nansheng sighed softly. Fine, fine, if he doesn't want to tell her, then he doesn't want to tell her. She'll find out eventually by herself.
Sheng Zhuo drove ahead, eyes downcast and seemingly oblivious to the conversation behind him.
As the car entered Hengdian's territory, Qiao Nansheng heard the man next to her say, "If you're so eager to see explicit content, why don't we try it out ourselves, and you'll see."
Sheng Zhuo: "..." Is Brother Cheng such a smooth driver?
Qiao Nansheng: "..." What did she just hear?
She looked terrified: "What did you say?"
Zhou Cheng looked at her, his eyes holding a half-smile: "You heard me, so why pretend you didn't? You really want to put it into practice with me?"
"Pah! No way! I just can't believe those words came out of your mouth, okay?" Qiao Nansheng rolled her eyes and grumbled as she pushed his face away.
"How do you know so much?" She suddenly remembered this and squinted at him. "Did you already see it? You saw it but you won't let me see it?"
Zhou Cheng: "I didn't tell you not to read it, I just didn't tell you which chapter specifically."
As an investor in the TV series "The Blooming of Pear Blossoms," Zhou Cheng had naturally read the novel.
After confirming his acceptance of the role, he searched for the original novel online. However, he was initially unaware of the explicit content and only learned about it from the comments section. In order to watch the complete version of "The Blooming of Pear Blossoms," Zhou Cheng even asked Xiang Fei to spend money to buy the resources.
Because back when Xingji Entertainment signed the contract for "The Blooming of Pear Blossoms," all the parts in the text that hinted at that aspect were deleted. If Qiao Nansheng wanted to read it now, he could only see the deleted version; the unedited version was not available.
But he has resources.
However, Zhou Cheng did not intend to tell Qiao Nansheng, because the most explicit and violent part of the novel was the one between the male protagonist Cheng Yunxiu and his third concubine Qingniang.
Although the TV adaptation was revised, this scene still exists, just not as explicit as in the novel.
Qiao Nansheng: "Ha, men."
She gave him a disdainful look.
Zhou Cheng: "..."
It was just like when he was kissing her.
…
The main entrance of Hengdian.
Sheng Zhuo stopped the car and turned to the two people in the back seat, saying, "Brother Cheng, the car can only go this far. You'll have to walk the rest of the way yourselves."
"Okay." Zhou Cheng nodded, took out his phone to check the time, and said, "Wait for me outside. If you're hungry at noon, go eat by yourself. I'll call you again after our auditions."
"Okay." Sheng Zhuo replied, watching them get out of the car, and then parked the car on the side of the road.
After getting out of the car, Qiao Nansheng and Zhou Cheng walked towards the entrance of Hengdian.
It was Qiao Nansheng's first time in Hengdian, and she was naturally curious, turning her head to look around as she went.
Zhou Cheng, wearing a hat and mask, led the way ahead of her. He disguised himself well, only revealing his eyes and fair forehead. However, despite this, quite a few people still recognized him.
Everyone greeted him with smiles, some even taking photos secretly. They showed no curiosity or suspicion about Qiao Nansheng beside him, assuming she was Zhou Cheng's assistant.
Zhou Cheng has a female assistant, but she rarely uses her. She usually only comes in when Xiang Fei is busy and can't come.
So when they saw Qiao Nansheng, they weren't surprised at all; everyone assumed she was Zhou Cheng's assistant.
Some people noticed that the "assistant" was quite good-looking and couldn't help but whisper among themselves: "Brother Zhou's assistant this time is really pretty, she looks like a female celebrity."
"Yes, she's much prettier than the female assistant from last time."
"She's wearing designer clothes... Is she really just an assistant? I don't think so."
"Yes, right? Look, she's holding Brother Zhou's script in her hand. What else could she be but an assistant?"
"I also feel like I'm not so much an assistant as a celebrity."
"How could we not know about celebrities? This person is obviously not from the industry; we've never even met him before."
...
Hearing the discussions coming from all directions, Qiao Nansheng's expression grew increasingly grim.
She gritted her teeth and thought bitterly: What kind of looks are those! How come she looks like Zhou Cheng's assistant? What kind of assistant is as good-looking as him?
Qiao Nansheng was furious. She took a deep breath, then took two steps toward Zhou Cheng and whispered, "Are all your fans this blind?"
“?” Zhou Cheng frowned, looked up at the fans Qiao Nansheng was talking about. He had naturally heard what they said. Seeing the woman’s face turn red with anger, a faint smile flashed in his eyes. He explained, “These are not fans, they are just staff members from Hengdian.”
"..." Qiao Nansheng was even angrier.
She took another deep breath: "Do I look like your assistant? Do you have a female assistant?"
"Yes, there is one." Zhou Cheng didn't hide anything and told her about the female assistant: "I only call her when Xiang Fei isn't here. She came a few times when we were filming in Hengdian before, so we probably stayed there."
"Is she good-looking?" This was Qiao Nansheng's focus.
Zhou Cheng paused, turned to look at her, and saw that her eyes were blazing with anger. He knew that she was angry because of what the staff had said, but he still deliberately misinterpreted her meaning: "Are you jealous?"
"What are you jealous of?!" Qiao Nansheng gritted her teeth angrily: "I'm clearly angry, but what kind of eyes do they have to say I'm your assistant? Ha."
I'm so angry! I'm so angry!
Zhou Cheng smiled helplessly: "Then what do you think they'll think of my rumored girlfriend?"
The two were very close when they spoke, and their voices were very low. From a third-person perspective, their posture appeared to be very intimate.
The staff standing to the side stared wide-eyed at Zhou Cheng and Qiao Nansheng, their faces filled with shock. Especially when they saw Zhou Cheng smile, those who had previously doubted whether Qiao Nansheng was his assistant started talking again—
