Chapter 196 Handsome Man Emerging from Bath



"Um!!"

Chestnut couldn't close her mouth. No way, who is that alluring and seductive enchantress in front of the camera, whose body and hair make you want to kiss her?

Has my older sister been switched at birth?

"Not bad, not bad."

The role of a courtesan is quite difficult to play; if not handled well, it can easily become extremely vulgar. Ji Liang had already mentally prepared himself, thinking that it wouldn't matter if he didn't perform well; as long as he was good-looking, he could just be a pretty face.

But... Luo Jiu in front of the camera rekindled Ji Liang's hope.

Liu Zhen, the agent standing to the side, also showed a hint of surprise in her eyes.

The courtesan reclines in her chair, holding a sake jug in her hand, and brings it to her lips.

The fragrant sake poured into her red lips, then leaked out from the outer edge, eventually flowing inside and wetting her clothes.

She downed the drink in one gulp, then looked at the empty glass and smiled faintly. Her usual alluring peach blossom eyes were gone, replaced by a look of confusion and helplessness.

"Click".

At the photographer's signal, Luo Jiu put the wine glass back in its place and bowed slightly to everyone, saying, "Thank you all for your hard work."

"Oh my god, sister, you looked absolutely stunning just now."

When Lili saw Luo Jiu come down, she quickly helped her lift her skirt, her little mouth chattering away.

"That look in her eyes, that charm, it gave me goosebumps. She's practically the embodiment of the Yueqin..."

"good."

Liu Zhen's voice came from the side, her indifferent tone carrying a hint of appreciation.

Luo Jiu smiled and pursed her lips. "Thank you."

In the original owner's memories, Liu Zhen was the top agent at Xingyu Media. She had an ordinary appearance, but possessed a capable beauty, and most importantly, she had a sharp eye for talent.

In this small company, she has already nurtured one A-list star and two or three B-list stars. Although it can't compare to the human resources of a large company, it's still quite impressive.

In her life story, Luo Jiu is probably the only exception. She poured countless resources into her career, yet she still seemed destined for obscurity. In the end, she self-destructed, nearly getting herself fired, wasting her stunningly beautiful face.

The company issued an ultimatum, demanding that Luo Jiu finish filming the drama and terminate her contract. Moreover, she only agreed after being persuaded by Liu Zhen. If it weren't for Liu Zhen's repeated protection and secret intervention, the original owner would have retired from the entertainment industry eight hundred years ago.

Luo Jiu was still grateful to her, after all, she had done her best.

After the photoshoot, it was almost noon.

"Sister, here's your room key. Keep it safe. It's a little past 11 o'clock now. If you're going to film this afternoon, it'll probably be around 2 o'clock. You can rest for a bit after you finish eating."

My room isn't on the same floor as yours, so please feel free to call me if you need anything. It's my honor to serve Your Majesty.

Lili was still immersed in Luo Jiu's role just now. That red dress was really too shocking, and her admiration was beyond words.

Luo Jiu chuckled softly and took the room key to find her room.

With a "beep!", the door opened.

Luo Jiu placed her luggage in the entryway and began to look around the hotel suite.

To be honest, this film crew was a bit poor, but this apartment was truly amazing. It had a spacious and bright living room that was divided into sections, connecting to the dining room, two bedrooms, and a small balcony.

The interior design is very stylish, using cool tones as the base color, which is simple, understated, and elegant.

Luo Jiu nodded in satisfaction, noticing a pair of bowls and chopsticks on the table, with the food still steaming hot.

The fragrance filled the entire small space, causing Luo Jiu to salivate uncontrollably.

The braised pork belly, simmered until it releases its juices, is served on an elegant plate. Next to it is a plate of stir-fried shredded potatoes with vinegar to cut through the richness. Fresh shrimp are fried until golden and crispy, gleaming with an enticing sheen. In the very center is a bowl of simple, original-flavored winter melon soup with a greenish hue.

Each of these dishes has a sign that says, "Come and eat me, I'm really delicious."

Luo Jiu was shocked. The service provided by this production crew was too good. The lunch provided was nice, but it was just home-style stir-fry, which was quite appealing.

Luo Jiu's stomach, which had been empty all morning, was protesting softly. She patted it, and her feelings of goodwill towards the film crew underwent a complete 180-degree change.

"In that case, I won't stand on ceremony."

Luo Jiu chuckled, picked up the chopsticks on the table, and slowly reached for the plate of fragrant, juicy pork belly.

Hmm...

It has a delicate texture, and the juice bursts on the taste buds, rich but not greasy, with a touch of sweetness.

Mom, this is the taste of happiness.

Luo Jiu felt that if she ate such rich and fatty foods every day, reaching 100 pounds would no longer be out of reach.

But it doesn't matter, how can you have the energy to lose weight if you're not full?

Luo Jiu then reached for the plate of fried shrimp. A crunching sound burst in her mouth.

Just then, Luo Jiu heard a creaking sound coming from behind her.

Luo Jiu, with half a shrimp in her mouth, looked back in confusion. Why was there a door opening sound?

In an instant, Luo Jiu suddenly found the food in the air no longer appealing.

A man stood in the bedroom doorway, frowning and looking at her with an incredulous expression.

He looked as if he had just taken a shower; his smooth black hair hung down on his head, and water droplets slid down his cheeks to his waist before disappearing into places Luo Jiu couldn't see.

Luo Jiu followed the water droplets and watched the man purse his lips slightly, revealing a beautifully shaped jawline and slender yet powerful eight-pack abs.

If it weren't for this awkward situation, Luo Jiu definitely wouldn't have been able to resist poking it to see what it felt like.

"Ahem. Who are you?"

A cool, deep voice came from the man's mouth, bringing the wandering Luo Jiu back to reality.

Realizing her gaze had been far too bold and blatant, revealing her true nature as a lecherous woman, Luo Jiu covered her eyes as if trying to bury her head in the sand and turned away.

"Hmm... I didn't see anything. I didn't see anything."

Shen Jinchen never expected that someone would suddenly appear on the table after he came out of the shower. He usually just wore a towel when he showered, so this was a little awkward.

When he came out after getting dressed, the woman who had been sitting at the dining table was nowhere to be found.

A note pressed against the corner of the table caught Shen Jinchen's attention.

- Oops, I'm so sorry, I misread the room number. I'm so sorry I touched your lunch. I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. (bows)

The handwriting on the note was neat and rounded, like that of a child.

Shen Jinchen looked at the half-eaten piece of braised pork left in the bowl, a smile unconsciously creeping into his eyes.

He gently tapped the note, recalling the scene he had just witnessed with Luo Jiu, and chuckled again, "How amusing, like a child."

He then put the bowls and chopsticks in the sink, took another set, and started eating.
