Did the actor show his affection today?
Gu Qingzhou took out the cigarette box and was about to light it, but Su Jingxing took it away.
"Yeah." Gu Qingzhou didn't have any smoking addiction, he would just smoke one occasionally when he was in a bad mood.
"Don't smoke. It's bad for your health."
Gu Qingzhou was silent for a moment.
Su Jingxing's eyes flickered in the dim light, and a piece of candy, accompanied by a smell of lemon, was stuffed into Gu Qingzhou's mouth unexpectedly.
"Is it tasty"
As soon as she finished speaking, before she could react, Su Jingxing had already lowered his head and kissed her lips. The lemon scent of the candy and the unique body fragrance of Su Jingxing mixed together, causing Gu Qingzhou, who was originally planning to push Su Jingxing's hand away, to pause.
"It's quite delicious." Su Jingxing let go of Gu Qingzhou, looked at her slightly red ears, and a smile appeared on his face.
Caught off guard by the kiss, Gu Qingzhou saw Su Jingxing's triumphant smile and his eyes darkened. He seemed to be getting more and more presumptuous.
"It's only courtesy. You're welcome." As he spoke, Su Jingxing reached out and rubbed Gu Qingzhou's hair, and the smile in his eyes became even more pronounced.
You're welcome, don't you think things are chaotic enough now?
Gu Qingzhou stepped on Su Jingxing fiercely to express his dissatisfaction.
The "scandal" did not last long. When Gu Qingzhou opened Weibo again, the hot search for "Su Jingxing and Xia Wanning's midnight rendezvous" had disappeared, replaced by "Stills from "Did the Queen Rebel Today?" and "Su Jingxing is so handsome."
Gu Qingzhou clicked on it and saw that the post that topped the popularity list was Su Jingxing’s Weibo post, which said, “A flying arrow stops at Ouyou, and rumors stop at the wise.”
Although he knew it was necessary public relations, Gu Qingzhou couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.
"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for gaining +10 favorability with the male protagonist. Please keep up the good work! Victory is not far away, waiting for you."
After several months, the filming of the TV series has basically been completed, with only the last few shots left to be shot abroad.
Due to Su Jingxing's extremely high popularity both internationally and internationally, the crew received a notice from reporters visiting the set as soon as they arrived in Country D.
The visitor was a local reporter who spoke English with a strong accent from Country D. This made Gu Qingzhou, who was originally a poor student, once again realize the deep malice of the system towards her.
After the female reporter asked Su Jingxing several questions in a row, she turned her attention to Gu Qingzhou who was standing beside her.
"Miss Xia, I heard that this is your first time to cooperate with Mr.
Su.
How do you feel?
Gu Qingzhou looked calm on the surface, but he was panicking inside.
“0609!!
SOS!!"
As a poor student, Gu Qingzhou is simply not good at English!
0609: Host needs help?
Gu Qingzhou was like a savior: "Yes! Help me translate!"
0609: No problem at all!
Gu Qingzhou: Hurry up!
0609: But...
Gu Qingzhou was about to lose his temper. "Can you please finish your sentence in one breath? Don't you know the situation is urgent? But what?"
0609: You need to pay enough love value!
Gu Qingzhou: "Just buckle it!"
0609: Sorry, your love value is not enough and the translation function cannot be activated.
To this, Gu Qingzhou could only respond with a "Hehe."
0609: However, I have another way to help you~
Gu Qingzhou gradually understood 0609's true nature, "You don't want me to ask Su Jingxing for help, do you?"
0609: The host is really smart!
Gu Qingzhou: "...Fuck you!! You're not smart at all."
"What do you think of me?" At some point, Su Jingxing had walked from beside the director to behind Gu Qingzhou.
Gu Qingzhou, who was still immersed in complaining about 0609, was stunned. "What?"
"A reporter's question."
The sunlight sprinkled softly on Gu Qingzhou's body. Su Jingxing lowered his eyes and swept his gaze across her dazed and lovely expression, with an indelible tenderness in his eyes.
“Very Good.”
"Yeah, and What do you think of the play"
This time, Gu Qingzhou waited and waited but Su Jingxing's translation didn't come. She subconsciously poked his arm and asked, "What did she say?"
Su Jingxing held Gu Qingzhou's hand with his backhand, "She asked you if you like me"
"Ah" Gu Qingzhou didn't react for a moment, and couldn't help but look back, and met a pair of eyes full of affection.
I couldn't help but laugh, "I like it. Of course I like Teacher Su so much~"
Who wouldn't like someone who favors her like this?
The girl answered very straightforwardly, as if it was an obvious fact. Su Jingxing knew that she always spoke beautifully, but he still couldn't help but be moved.
Seeing Su Jingxing's stunned expression, Gu Qingzhou also became interested. "Speaking of this, Teacher Su, you haven't answered my previous question yet. Do you... like me?"
The heat in Su Jingxing's eyes disappeared completely in an instant. His gaze on Gu Qingzhou was dim and unclear. After a moment, he turned his head and said, "The play is so good that anyone who watches it will love it."
As the visiting time was about to end, the female reporter suggested that they perform a classic scene from the TV series on the spot as a benefit for the fans visiting the set.
Although it is just a small benefit, details determine success or failure. The director chose the clip where the male and female protagonists confessed their love to each other without hesitation.
"One, Two, Three, Ready Start."
Su Jingxing walked in front of Gu Qingzhou, his hands on her shoulders slightly pale from nervousness. His voice was sexy and deep, telling the most beautiful love words in the world, "I love you."
His eyes were bright, and full of affection, as long and low as the cold snow in winter.
Gu Qingzhou smiled and tiptoed close to Su Jingxing's ear. The warm breath from her lips and teeth sprayed on Su Jingxing's ear, which was enough to arouse people's distraction.
But the next second, Su Jingxing's hope was extinguished. Gu Qingzhou's words were like a thunderclap, splitting the illusion before him.
He looked at the girl in front of him in astonishment. There was still a smile in her eyes, as if it was a teasing between lovers, but the words she said were extremely cold. "I like you too."
I like you too.
With just one sentence and five words, she directly rejected Su Jingxing's courtship, and at the same time told him clearly that her feelings for him could only stop at liking him and could not go any further.
Everyone has two sides. When they face the person they like, they will hide their dark side and show their perfect self.
But precisely because of this, this kind of feeling can only remain in an ambiguous state.
Only when they fall in love with someone will they show their true selves without reservation.
At this moment, Gu Qingzhou obviously had no intention of opening his heart to Su Jingxing.
Just when the whole audience was silent.
"Sorry, I remembered the lines wrong." Gu Qingzhou blinked at Su Jingxing and loosened his clenched hands imperceptibly.
In fact, she remembered the lines clearly, and Lin Shuya’s answer at this time should be "I love you too."
But just when she was about to say it, the scenes that happened between her and Su Jingxing emerged in her mind. Looking at Su Jingxing's sincere eyes, the word "love" was like a fishbone stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say it.
Although she had been in love for a long time, she had never truly loved anyone. She didn't expect that the thought of saying this word would make her feel stuck in her throat.
She knew that she had an avoidant personality, and she also knew that it was formed by an accident when she was young. So for all these years, "liking" was a luxury for her, and the word "love" was even more out of reach for her.
The familiar yet unfamiliar fear was like an invisible hand that strangled her breath and made her involuntarily choose to retreat.
Maybe there are some things that are destined to be unworthy of her.
-
In the next few days, whenever Gu Qingzhou heard the director say "cut", the soles of his feet would be as if greased with oil and he would disappear immediately.
Every time Su Jingxing saw Gu Qingzhou fleeing in panic, he thought it was okay at first, maybe he was just shy.
But as the number of times increased... this made Su Jingxing think more, and his heart was heavy. For a moment, he couldn't understand Gu Qingzhou's thoughts.
Song Bian, who was standing nearby, followed Su Jingxing's gaze and saw no one. He asked, "Mr. Gu, is there anything interesting up ahead?"
Su Jingxing was stunned for a moment, then shook his head thoughtfully, "No."
Just when Song Bian was about to continue asking questions, he was pulled into the arms of Director Cheng, who had already seen through everything.
Director Cheng raised his hand and ruffled Song Bian's hair. "Okay, stop worrying about others. If you have time to care about others, you might as well care about me!"
Somehow, Su Jingxing heard a hint of grievance in Director Cheng's tone.
"Do you still need my concern? I didn't even know who it was yesterday, and you told me not to worry about him!"
"I was wrong, my dear wife, please don't be angry!" Director Cheng is well-known in the industry for being a henpecked husband. Su Jingxing, who has worked with Director Cheng many times, has long been accustomed to it. He sighed helplessly and turned away.
Gu Qingzhou's recent behavior made him increasingly uneasy.
-
"The first of the 305th match begins."

Gu Qingzhou wore the dress that Su Jingxing had carefully selected for her, and walked towards Su Jingxing gracefully step by step. She had an exquisite mask on her face, and her eyes looked at Su Jingxing with a smile through the mask.
"I don't know if I have the honor to dance with Miss Lin Shuya." Su Jingxing bowed slightly and stretched out a hand in front of Gu Qingzhou.
Gu Qingzhou's lips curled up into an elegant smile, "Of course."
The two danced gracefully to the melodious tune, like two butterflies lingering in the grass, light and beautiful.
Every move is a resonance of the two souls. They are attracted to each other, and their inner turmoil gradually increases.
Deep in love, Su Jingxing couldn't help but lower his head and kiss Gu Qingzhou on the lips. At this moment, everyone seemed to disappear, leaving only him and Gu Qingzhou...
After a dance, Gu Qingzhou's fingertips gently touched Su Jingxing's suit, and with a force he pulled off the second button on his suit.
The light was as bright as day, shining on Gu Qingzhou's body, outlining the most charming outline. A smile played on the corner of her mouth, and she proudly shook the button in her hand. "They say the second button is closest to the heart. If a girl wears it, it means she..."
Before Gu Qingzhou could finish his words, Su Jingxing covered his mouth. "How can you even speak about something like this?"
Under Gu Qingzhou's astonished gaze, Su Jingxing knelt on one knee without hesitation and took out a ring from his pocket. "Shuya, marry me! This time, I won't make the same mistake again!"
The students nearby came forward and started to jeer, “Agree!
Agree!
Agree!”
Gu Qingzhou smiled and nodded, "Alright! I promise you, don't look like a crybaby. What about this time, last time... you are so happy that you are confused."
Su Jingxing excitedly hugged Gu Qingzhou into his arms...
On the way home, Gu Qingzhou suddenly realized something. She turned her head and pretended to be angry and said, "Qi You, when did you prepare this ring?"
Su Jingxing scratched his head awkwardly, looking around and saying something else. "Shushu, let's go eat! I've been so busy with the prom that my stomach is growling with hunger."
"Hmm," Gu Qingzhou grabbed Su Jingxing's ear and asked, "Speak or not?"
Su Jingxing looked weak, helpless, and pitiful as he cried out, "Sir, spare my life, I'll tell you!"
He stood up straight, the cynicism in his eyes had long since faded, leaving only deep affection. He said each word seriously, "From the first moment I saw you, I was ready."
"Okay! Qi You, you really have good intentions!" Although Gu Qingzhou said this, her heart was already surrounded by sweetness. A trace of sweetness flowed through her blood like syrup and throughout her body.
Su Jingxing didn't answer, but just murmured, "Yes! You really have good intentions! From the first moment I saw you, I planned you into my future..."
The words were soft and carried away by the wind...
But the determination to protect her took root in my heart...
//
"Okay, click."
On this day, Gu Qingzhou was just like usual, slipping away as soon as his role was over.
But just as she finished removing her makeup and walked out of the dressing room, she saw Su Jingxing standing at the door of the dressing room, half leaning against the door frame with a half-smile on his face.
"Teacher Su, what are you doing at the door of the girls' dressing room?" Gu Qingzhou was stunned. He just greeted him and was about to walk past him.
"Just wait and see." Su Jingxing followed with big strides, grabbed her arm, took her a few steps, and forced her to sit on the stool in the dressing room.
Su Jingxing supported himself on the chair with one hand and held Gu Qingzhou's waist with the other, holding her completely in his arms.
The small dressing room was silent, and the two people's breathing were entangled.
Su Jingxing looked at the girl in his arms, her eyes and eyebrows were picturesque, and his breathing couldn't help but become heavier.
Feeling that Su Jingxing was acting strangely, Gu Qingzhou reached out his hand and wanted to push him away, but it just happened to bring Su Jingxing back to his senses.
Su Jingxing reached out and lifted Gu Qingzhou's chin, forcing her to look directly at him. "Xia Wanning, have you been avoiding me recently?"
Because he is half human, half demon, Gu Qingzhou has skin as white as ice and as white as jade. When he heard this, his face couldn't help but turn slightly red.
She avoided his gaze slightly, "No, why would I hide from you?"
"You said you wouldn't hide from me, so don't regret it."
"No regrets." Gu Qingzhou regretted it to death in his heart, but he was stubborn.
But he couldn't help but sigh inwardly that he would never be able to escape openly again.
"Let's go, I'll treat you to a midnight snack." Hearing the satisfactory answer, Su Jingxing rubbed Gu Qingzhou's hair, stood up, and his face became a gentleman again.
Although Gu Qingzhou secretly cursed him for being cunning, he had no choice but to follow him.
