Chapter 624: Foster Brother (26)
It turned out that the reason why the young lady was unhappy was because there was a problem with the filming. She got stuck on the emotional scenes. Gu Liu found it strange. The young lady liked Qi Mingsen so much back then, and the whole world knew about her pursuit. How could she not be able to act out the feelings of unrequited love?
Wen Wan was also devastated. In the end, the director had no choice but to let her go home and try to find her footing. How? By cultivating a relationship with her husband. Maybe that would help her figure it out.
Wen Yan: "..."
The key point is that they are a contractual couple! If they divorce when the time comes, it means there's no love between them.
How did she train him?
Annoying, one day while eating, Wen Wan suddenly had a brilliant idea: since she couldn't get close to Gu Liu, she could at least watch, right?
Aren't the male and female leads currently in the ambiguous stage of their relationship?
So Wen Wan discussed with the system the idea of observing the budding romance between the male and female protagonists up close, but the system rejected her without hesitation.
"Why? Didn't you want me to focus on my career? Isn't this what I'm working hard for?"
System: [You just want to gossip, right? What reason do you have to watch? Is the wife watching the mistress? Don't forget, you and the male lead are still legally married. He's such a noble person, how could he possibly have an affair? Even if he did, he wouldn't do it in front of you. You're destined to fail.]
Wen Yan: "..."
"Don't you have any invisibility potion?"
The system, feeling guilty, replied, "No, host, don't get any ideas."
Even if it existed, it would never use it in this way; it certainly wouldn't want to personally push its host into the future crematorium.
Wen Wan was forced to abandon this idea.
The system quickly tried to soothe him, saying, "Host, why don't you try dating the male lead? You might get an unexpected surprise."
Wen Wan: "What kind of logic is this? The director found so many people to audition for me, but it didn't work."
System: [Host, were any of the actors you auditioned for as good-looking as the male lead? Having seen the male lead's towering good looks, how could ordinary boys possibly make you fall in love, make your heart race, or convey the feeling of love?]
Wen Yan: "..."
I want to refute it, but the system's logic is flawed, and I don't know how to refute it.
"Don't talk nonsense, I'll figure it out myself."
She refused to believe that she could be defeated by such a small difficulty.
So Gu Liu discovered that the young lady spent every day watching movies on her computer, sometimes even skipping meals. During this time, he realized that the young lady was exceptionally obsessed with food, and ate a lot at every meal, liking to eat everything.
Gu Liu felt something was off about his sudden decision not to eat.
He would even occasionally act out a scene with thin air while Gu Liu handled company matters on his computer.
But as they dealt with it, their gazes unconsciously drifted toward the young lady.
Why be so persistent?
If this scene can't be filmed, then just cut it.
As long as you talk to the director, since she is the biggest investor in the TV series, no one will disagree with this small matter.
“I went to the director and asked him to remove this scene and revise the script.”
He had barely finished speaking when Wen Wan glared at him, "No."
"Why?"
"I've been working hard for so long, practicing every day, and I feel like I'm almost there. If I take it all away now, wouldn't all my efforts have been wasted?"
"Anyway, the director said to shoot other people's scenes first, and I will have enough time to find the look he wants."
"Didn't you used to like Qi Mingsen? The way you looked at him back then was pretty much the same as what the director described. Why don't you just copy that?"
Wen Yan: "..."
The one who likes Qi Mingsen is that blind Liu Qianqian, what does it have to do with her?
“I don’t like him anymore. I only realized this after I was hit by the car. I didn’t like him before either. I was just fooled by his persona.”
Gu Liu: "Is that so?"
"I swear, brother, you have to believe me. I'm not the same person I used to be. I've completely changed."
At this point, Gu Liu finally asked the question he had always wanted to ask, "Why don't you hate me anymore? You didn't lose your memory in the car accident, and there was no brain damage, so why do you suddenly not hate me anymore?"
Wen Wan had already prepared her answer to this question, since anyone would have doubts about their sudden change.
Wen Wan sat down on the sofa opposite Gu Liu, staring into Gu Liu's eyes, and then began her excuse.
"Actually, during the days I was in a coma, I had a very long dream."
"Dream?"
"Yes, I dreamt about my future. I dreamt that I would be blacklisted by the entertainment industry. I dreamt that I would be used and then abandoned by Qi Mingsen. I dreamt that I drove you away, and then the Liu Group went bankrupt. I was powerless to save it. In the end, I was killed by Qi Mingsen's admirer."
Wen Wanli tried her best to gain Gu Liu's trust.
"So I regretted it. It all seemed so real. I even dreamed about the past, before you came to my house. My parents were arguing every day. I actually knew why they were arguing, but I didn't want to admit it. I felt that you and your mother were the cause of my parents' arguments, so I targeted you, thinking that if I kicked you out, they would be able to be loving again."
“I should grow up now, especially after experiencing life and death, I have become clear about many things. So don’t worry, brother, from now on you will be my own brother in my heart, and I will definitely be filial to you.”
Gu Liu was still trying to figure out whether what the young lady said was true or false, whether she was acting or had really changed.
And that's what I heard.
"Be filial to me? I don't think I'm old enough to need to be filial."
Wen Wan: "Big brother, you are in the prime of your life. I misspoke."
Gu Liu: "..."
"We're husband and wife now. You want to be filial to me? Isn't that a bit strange of you?"
Wen Wan choked violently, then coughed violently.
Gu Liu smiled, the kind of smile that comes from doing something wrong.
Gu Liu didn't know why he suddenly brought it up, and when he saw the young lady's expression collapse for a moment, he actually felt a little relieved.
Wen Wan felt like she was about to cough herself to death, and her eyes were red. Was this really the male lead? Could this really be the kind of lame joke that a righteous and upright male lead would tell? It wasn't funny at all, it scared her to death, and her heart was pounding.
Looking at Gu Liu, who was still smiling across from her, she found his smile truly captivating. In fact, while he usually exuded the aloofness of a top-tier male protagonist, he now seemed to be surrounded by a shimmering, sparkling light, making her feel as if she had suddenly descended from the clouds to the mortal realm, inspiring her fantasies.
Wen Wan shook her head, banishing the dangerous thought.
Feeling tricked, she suddenly wanted to strangle Gu Liu and pounced on him, saying, "Did you do this on purpose? I know I owe you something, but you didn't have to scare me like this. I can't take it, I really can't take it."
