“Ka——”
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone!"
The scene came to a temporary end, and the crowd surged.
Mu Ci tilted his head slightly and twisted his aching neck calmly. Then he fixed his gaze on the handsome but slightly pale man in his early twenties not far away, with an unknown light in his eyes.
She has been in this world for a while and is currently filming for the TV series "Chaos".
As a female supporting role, unlike the previous mission world, she has to suppress the male protagonist, become a cannon fodder and stepping stone on his road to success, and motivate him to keep getting stronger.
On the basis of trying not to destroy the character, as long as you carry out the specific tasks related to the script in real time, you will complete the task. Of course, if you fail to complete it, you will receive random punishment.
The man I just saw was the male protagonist of this world, Ji Li.
Now Ji Li is still just a small star outside the 18th tier. Although she is good-looking and has good abilities, for some reason, she is always lukewarm.
As for her current identity, she is the film queen Song Muci.
After sorting out the information in his mind, Mu Ci's eyes were indifferent.
"Teacher Song, please go to the dressing room and rest for a while." The assistant handed over a glass of water and greeted her.
Mu Ci took it and nodded slightly, his whole person being polite yet distant.
"Ji Li, come here."
Mu Ci said this without even raising his eyelids, and then walked into the lounge.
Ji Li, who was flipping through the script in her hand, paused for a moment after hearing this, then put away the script, stepped forward with her long legs and walked towards the dressing room where Mu Ci was with an expressionless face.
As soon as he left, the people from the crew outside couldn't help but whisper.
"This happens every Monday! It's even more punctual than my period!"
"How did Ji Li offend Queen Song?"
"Who knows? Although Song Yinghou is a bit cold on weekdays, she is still nice. Why does she have to make things difficult for Ji Li? Could it be..."
"Don't talk nonsense, just do what you need to do!"
A group of people from the crew were watching over there and discussing enthusiastically.
In the corner on the other side, there sat a quiet young woman with a pretty face. She seemed to be flipping through the script carefully, but her eyes had already followed the direction the man had just left, with an unpredictable light in them.
Mu Ci had no idea what the gossip outside was like because she was busy dealing with the male protagonist.
When Ji Li walked in, she had a calm face, but she was extremely handsome. Every move she made seemed to be filled with starlight, making people feel their eyes brighten.
Mu Ci looked at the man in front of him calmly. The more he looked, the more he felt that the original owner had good taste. He was simply too damn handsome, and had a face that would make people feel a strong possessiveness and a sense of guilt. His handsome looks and cold temperament were just right.
Afterwards, thinking about the role he should play, Mu Ci took a deep breath in his heart, put on a proud face, raised his hand, and pointed it towards Ji Li's face.
Hit him hard!
Snap——
A very crisp sound was heard, and Ji Li raised his head abruptly, his beautiful eyes filled with anger, and his fists clenched tightly.
He was very tall, and he just stood in front of Mu Ci. The light from the lounge shone down on him, almost as if he was looking down on him, with a natural aura that enveloped Mu Ci.
It seemed as if it would hit me in the next second.
Seeing the surprise in his eyes and the anger that was about to turn into reality, Mu Ci was a little frightened and his shoulders shook uncontrollably.
Mu Ci was trembling in his heart: Damn... Damn, I'm so scared, big brother, please don't get angry, it's just a slap, you are the male lead, you have to be graceful!
[The system is speechless: ...Why do I have a vague feeling that you are excited?]
Mu Ci said casually: Nonsense, I'm scared, okay?
Even if you are excited and scared in your heart, you must not show it on your face.
Mu Ci still had a cold face and arrogant eyes, without any emotion in them.
Ji Li looked at her for a long time, then lowered his head without saying anything, suppressing the anger and resentment that he could not control just now. At this moment, he was silent and unusually quiet.
If it weren't for the continuous numbness in her palm and the slap mark on the right cheek of the man in front of her that was quickly turning red, Mu Ci would have thought it was just her illusion.
That look was not as docile as it is now, but as fierce and wolf-like as it was now.
Before she could think about it, a mechanical electronic voice came into her mind:
[Plot Mission: Hit the male protagonist, completed, punishment canceled.]
[Please transform yourself into a female demon and move forward without hesitation!]
Mu Ci: …
More than once, she was speechless about the awkwardness of such a forced task.
But it's not over yet.
"Do you know where you are wrong? I signed you to work hard for me, not to flirt with a little girl under my nose!"
There was disgust and resentment in Mu Ci's tone.
In this book, Ji Li just spoke a few words to the heroine of this world, Lin Qingqing, and this scene happened to be seen by Song Muci. So, the actress instantly felt that someone was coveting her property. In the middle of the filming, she couldn't help it, so she called the person to the lounge, and slapped him in anger.
So now, Mu Ci has to follow the plot and complete the task, otherwise she will be punished from above.
Mu Ci had a cold face, and his eyes were full of disdain and contempt when he looked at Ji Li.
"Ji Li, don't forget who you are now!"
When Ji Li heard this, his body stiffened again, and the storm brewing in his slightly narrowed eyes was enough to tear a person apart, but from the outside, he still looked well-behaved and quiet, like a shivering rabbit that dared not make a loud noise.
That's right, Ji Li is not only a rising star in the entertainment industry signed by Song Muci, but also a little wolf dog kept by the movie queen Song Muci. However, the relationship between the two is very pure, because in Song Muci's eyes, Ji Li is just a substitute.
He is still the kind of substitute who is always available, can be beaten or scolded, has no emotions, but has a strong possessiveness, just because Ji Li looks somewhat similar to the person Song Muci likes.
Thinking of this, Mu Ci felt a headache.
What is going on? Did the male protagonist in this world get the wrong script? Even such an old stand-in plot has come out. This is nothing but an old-fashioned romance.
[Mu Ci: Why exactly is that? Given the male protagonist’s personality, how could he be kept by someone, and a substitute at that?]
She had read the script many times, but all perspectives were from the perspective of the heroine Lin Qingqing. As for why Ji Li was willing to be the kept little wolfdog of the movie queen Song Muci, it was not mentioned in the play at all. In fact, the script did not even mention the matter of keeping a kept man.
[System: If this is not written in the script, then I don’t know. However, it is best not to interfere in these matters that are not related to the mission. Just do your part. Otherwise, you know the consequences.]
Mu Ci paused for a moment before responding with a smile.
[System: Since the mission is gradually getting on track, I will exit this world later. I hope everything goes well for you, and that you can complete the mission as soon as possible and leave this world.]
[Mu Ci: OK.]
After arriving at each world, each numbered system will only stay in the initial stage of the world for a period of time, briefly explain the mission situation, and then leave. What follows is the tasker's business.
After the system left, Mu Ci finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally he left. Damn it. As long as this guy was around, she would feel uncomfortable all over. Even eating and sleeping made her feel like sitting on pins and needles.
It feels like when you are taking a final exam and there is a dean standing next to you, staring at you intently. Your mind is already a mess, and you can't write anything at all.
But the other party just seems to be arguing with you and won't leave until you finish writing something.
hehe.
As soon as the system left, Mu Ci's mood instantly improved, and even the words he said according to the plot of the mission were filled with a sense of joy.
"This won't be an exception. Come over here and give me a shoulder massage and neck rub."
Mu Ci waved her hand casually, as if she no longer cared about what Ji Li had just said to the other woman. She sat on the chair and called Ji Li over.
Although she had undergone intensive training as a movie queen before coming to this world, her body seemed a little fragile. After a while, her shoulders and neck were sore.
There was a person standing next to it, just right for use.
When a handsome man massages your shoulders, life becomes simply joyful.
Mu Ci has now closed his eyes, waiting to enjoy.
Ji Li raised his head, looking down at the woman in front of him with cold eyes. Then he quickly hid all his emotions in his deep eyes and walked behind Mu Ci.
The slender and powerful fingers pressed and rubbed several key acupuncture points on Mu Ci's shoulders with great skill, which could relieve fatigue.
Mu Ci squinted his eyes comfortably and leaned back on the chair, his face revealing a look of pleasure and comfort.
"Legend of Chuan Huang" is a drama with a female lead adapted from a big IP and set in a chaotic ancient time. The female lead, played by actress Song Muci, has been disguising herself as a man since she was a child and has been struggling to survive as the eleventh prince of Fenglin Kingdom.
Since it was a break, she was still wearing the costume from the play, a royal robe with her black hair hanging naturally. With her current look, she looked like a prince taking some time out to laze around, exuding a unique sense of romantic leisure.
But the only two people in the room couldn't feel anything at all.
Ji Li's hands kept moving as she stood behind Mu Ci, with a wooden face, massaging her shoulders expressionlessly.
Suddenly, his arm felt heavy, and Mu Ci fell asleep with his head tilted against Ji Li's arm.
Ji Li stopped moving his hands and looked over coldly, with an indifferent light in his eyes.
The slight pain on my face seemed to remind me of something.
Then, after a few seconds of silence, he reached out his hand, held the woman's face, and pushed it to the other side.
The force is neither light nor heavy.
Mu Ci suddenly woke up and was stunned for a moment before he realized that he was in the crew, in the mission world.
It seems her old illness has come back.
Mu Ci frowned, looking unhappy.
But...what happened just now? She seemed to be pushed.
Mu Ci tilted his head and looked at Ji Li behind him with an ambiguous look.
The man stood there tall and thin, dressed in ancient costume, handsome and unparalleled. However, at this moment, there was a slightly red mark on one side of his fair face. He looked straight at me, his lips pursed, his eyes deep, and he looked extremely innocent.
This... who can handle this?
Mu Ci's feeling of guilt suddenly grew.
Although the task was to slap the male protagonist, Mu Ci did not use much strength. Otherwise, if it were the original owner's temperament, this slap would not only make his face turn red.
But even so, Ji Li's face...will be a problem when filming later.
Mu Ci thought for a while and exchanged his points for a small bottle of ointment from the mission store.
This ointment is used to remove scars. If you apply a little bit of it on the red marks on Ji Li's face, it will be effective in less than five minutes.
I think so, but the character cannot collapse.
So, Mu Ci continued with a cold face, took out the ointment from his bag and threw it directly into Ji Li's arms.
"If you put it on, someone who doesn't know would think I did something to you."
There was still contempt and disdain in his tone.
Having said that, he left without looking back.
Ji Li stood there alone, holding the jar of ointment in his hand, staring at Mu Ci's back. There was no warmth in his eyes for a long time. He sneered, turned around and left without saying anything.
In the empty lounge, a jar of white ointment lay quietly in a trash can.
