Fu Wenguang was sitting on the sofa in the middle. When he saw Lin Zhenzhen come in, he put down the cigar in his hand.
The room was dimly lit and filled with a smoky, nauseating atmosphere.
Lin Zhenzhen waved her hand dismissively. Although Zhou Gan also smoked, the smell of tobacco on him always smelled very good.
"Xiao Zhen, long time no see." He wore black-rimmed glasses, was thin, and looked refined, but Lin Zhenzhen knew that he was far from being as serious as he appeared.
"You're still so beautiful. I was really shocked when I saw the news about you and Zhou Gan a while ago. Even now, I can't believe it's true."
Fu Wenguang put on a very sad expression, and he even tried to reach out and touch Lin Zhenzhen's shoulder.
"Excuse me for interrupting." Lin Zhenzhen gestured for him to stay away. "I didn't mean to bother you. I just came to use the restroom."
"Alright, stop saying such hurtful things. That tigress orchestrated everything back then; I didn't want it to happen either."
Both of them participated in an acting competition program, but Fu Wenguang was a talented young director, while Lin Zhen was a pretty face with poor acting skills.
After several episodes of the show, Fu Wenguang became interested in Lin Zhen and arranged for someone to pass on a message to her, saying that he wanted to have a meal with her alone.
Lin Zhen refused the first time, and the other party didn't say much. However, she received the script for Fu Wenguang's new drama that very night.
He said he just felt that her image matched the character in the film and wanted to talk to her about the play.
Being able to play the second female lead in a film by such a renowned director was like a windfall, leaving Lin Zhen somewhat dizzy and overwhelmed.
However, she remained rational and asked a friend in the industry to accompany her to the meeting.
That ambiguous, staged kiss photo was taken around that time.
Lin Zhenzhen looked at the skinny man in front of her, silently estimating the intensity in her mind, and warmed up by turning her neck left and right.
The sound of bones creaking could be heard in the air.
She curled her lips into a smile, a hint of allure in her eyes.
"I was wronged so badly back then, and instead of standing up to clarify the facts, you helped others smear me, saying I seduced you?"
Fu Wenguang's eyes darkened, and his tone became urgent.
"My darling, I had no choice but to do this." He stepped forward and wrapped his arms around Lin Zhenzhen's waist, making a move to lean down and kiss her.
Two fingers pinched his lips together with extreme precision.
"You stink! You're a pig who smokes all day long." Lin Zhenzhen's face was full of disgust. She clenched her right fist, about to punch the man in the stomach.
The door to the room was pushed open.
Zhou Gan, like a demon god, stared intently at the two men with a fierce look on his face.
He Feng, who was behind him, yelled "Holy crap!" and then quickly slammed the door shut, blocking the view from outside.
Lin Zhenzhen blinked, and before she could react, she felt a gust of wind flash past her left cheek.
The next second, Fu Wenguang was pinned to the ground, and Zhou Gan's fists rained down on him like a storm.
Lin Zhenzhen had never seen him fight before, and she never expected him to be so...sexy when he hit someone.
He Feng was also stunned, only snapping out of his daze when he watched as Fu Wenguang's glasses flew to the door.
"Zhou Gan, stop hitting him! There are reporters outside."
He finally stopped moving and stood up, slightly out of breath.
Lin Zhenzhen immediately stepped forward and hugged his hand, gently breathing out, "Did it hurt?"
Zhou Gan didn't speak, a fleeting look of disappointment and hurt crossed his face.
But he still said gently, "It doesn't hurt."
"My older brother and great-aunt, is this the time to be concerned about this?"
He Feng leaned over and took a look at the person lying on the ground; it was a truly gruesome sight.
Lin Zhenzhen, however, took Zhou Gan's hand without a care and said coquettishly, "My boyfriend is here, that's the most important thing."
She leaned close to Zhou Gan's ear and whispered, "I have a surprise for you."
The combined recordings of Rong He and Fu Wenguang completely reconstructed the events of Lin Zhen being framed and forced to take the blame.
After listening to the entire conversation, Zhou Gan's fingers tightened and loosened as he gripped his phone.
His eyelashes trembled, and his lips trembled, unable to utter a word.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have gained 100 points of favorability with the male lead. The jump is expected to be available in ten hours.]
Lin Zhenzhen's smile froze for a moment.
Although she knew this day would come sooner or later, when it actually arrived, she still felt a sharp pain in her heart.
Zhou Gan noticed that her expression was off and quickly asked her where she felt unwell.
"My stomach hurts, I'm probably hungry," Lin Zhenzhen said with a forced smile. "I want to eat your cooking."
"Okay." Zhou Gan kissed the back of her hand. "I'll make it for you tonight."
Lin Zhenzhen nestled in his arms and said gently, "Haven't you ever seen me act before?"
The following day, Zhou Gan stayed with her in the photography studio.
Many of the staff members on site were also fans who had followed the couple from the variety show. When they saw Zhou Gan's loving gaze, they couldn't help but stomp their feet excitedly.
"You will be happy forever." As they finished work, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted this.
Lin Zhenzhen was stunned, then grinned and revealed a smile.
Zhou Gan squeezed her hand, his eyes full of smiles: "Thank you, we will."
The two drove home, and even while waiting at a red light, they held hands tightly.
The house was exactly as she had left it. Lin Zhenzhen stood in the living room, carefully looking around.
