"Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving now."
After finishing a cup of tea that already reached the bottom, the matter involving Green Rakshasa had thrown Xu Fan into some confusion. At this moment, as she stood and prepared to take her leave,
"Wait a moment!"
It seemed unexpected that she herself would be so eager to ask Xu Fan to stay. Seeing Xu Fan turn around, Li Qinghe's face showed a trace of shyness.
"Could you stay a little longer..."
In a rush to find a suitable reason to have Xu Fan stay a bit longer, Li Qinghe took the script out of her bag and said, "Xu Fan, I really am sorry about earlier."
"It's just that I really need someone to help me go through this play."
"Could you... could you help me."
Compared to her previous attitude, Li Qinghe at this moment was many times more earnest.
Xu Fan took a glance at her, hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, as long as you don't mind me being an amateur."
Acting was something she was completely clueless about.
Xu Fan didn't believe that having her rehearse with her would be of any assistance.
But with the other party insisting so strongly, it wouldn't be good for her to refuse again. Now taking the script from her, Xu Fan focused on skimming through the part she was expected to play along with.
"..."
Soon, Xu Fan had finished reading the script in her hand.
It wasn't clear whether it was the plot that she found tricky, or something else, but Xu Fan's expression turned somewhat complex.
"Are you sure you want me to act it out with you?"
Li Qinghe nodded vigorously and said, "This play does indeed go overboard in some places, but the complete storyline is an extremely good one."
"If it passes the review and gets produced, I am very confident about winning awards."
Looking into Li Qinghe's confident eyes, Xu Fan nodded. From the script in her hands alone, it was evident that this play would be a true test of her acting skills.
If played well, it could indeed cause a sensation.
"All right then, let's get started now."
After recalling the script's content, Xu Fan nodded and strived to immerse herself in the role.
Meanwhile, Li Qinghe took off her coat and headed towards the bathroom.
The part that Li Qinghe was going to play opposite her involved her attempting suicide in the bathroom, and Xu Fan suddenly bursting in to rescue her.
The two had already established a profound bond before, and after the rescue, what followed was a tumbling session in the bedroom...
Xu Fan couldn't help but wonder what quality she saw in her that made such a big star choose her for such an explosive scene.
Xu Fan waited outside, involuntarily stroking her chin.
Could it be that she truly possessed a talent for acting?
Guessing that Li Qinghe must be almost ready in the bathroom, Xu Fan took a breath and, staying in character, charged straight into the bathroom.
"You!"
Rushing into the bathroom, she saw Li Qinghe submerged in the bathtub, her beautiful legs exposed, wearing only a white shirt on her upper body.
Her long hair spread out in the water, her eyes tightly closed; she seemed to be nearing the brink of death.
The sight made Xu Fan's scalp tingle with apprehension.
This woman, she was playing with her life for the sake of acting.
With a human life at stake, Xu Fan dared not delay. She rushed to the bathtub and lifted the drowning Li Qinghe out of it.
"Wake up, hurry!"
Just as the script had arranged, Li Qinghe did not acknowledge him, and feeling her weak body, Xu Fan frowned and quickly carried her to the bedroom.
She was pressed tightly against him, a faint fragrance from her body making its way to his nose, and with her unintentionally rubbing against his embrace, Xu Fan became increasingly embarrassed.
He didn't know whether this woman was really unconscious or feigning it.
Due to the drowning, her upper garment—a white shirt—had completely soaked through and clung tightly to her skin, perfectly outlining her impressive figure.
The shirt had been thin to begin with, and now that it was thoroughly wet, it had nearly turned transparent, revealing a hint of black charm from underneath the clothing.
The air seemed to be filled with an erotic atmosphere, and as a gentleman, Xu Fan struggled mightily to move his gaze away, ***** this was truly torturous.
Upon entering the bedroom with Li Qinghe in his arms, Xu Fan carried out the arranged script, performing emergency first aid on her.
After an indeterminable amount of time, this woman finally deigned to open her eyes.
"You're awake?"
Her acting was so lifelike, Xu Fan genuinely breathed a sigh of relief to see her awaken.
"It's you, how did you get here?"
A weak Li Qinghe slowly opened her eyes, appearing somewhat puzzled as she gazed at Xu Fan by the bedside.
The expression she revealed was vivid.
"You, come here, I want to have a good look at you."
Suddenly, Li Qinghe's delicate cheeks flushed, her eyes hazy and seductively looking over at Xu Fan.
"You must have a fever."
Thinking about what he should say, Xu Fan touched Li Qinghe's cheek and said, "You better change your clothes quickly, then cover up with the blanket. I'll go find some medicine for you, and after you take it, you should be all right."
"But…"
Li Qinghe looked pitifully at Xu Fan, biting her lips, unable to voice her words.
"I don't have the strength right now, I can't take off my clothes…"
"…"
As per the plot development, at this point he was supposed to emulate Lei Feng and help Li Qinghe undress.
Not being a professional actor, Xu Fan hesitated for a moment.
But Li Qinghe was not put off by his inexperience, continuing to gaze at him with a deeply affectionate look.
Seemingly uncomfortable, she tugged at the clinging shirt on her body; her languid movements brought the allure to its peak.
"Then let me help you."
Xu Fan exhaled and nobly agreed to help.
"…"
The moment he reached out, Xu Fan's hands found themselves on parts that he should not have touched…
He awkwardly grinned, thinking that being an actor was truly not easy; too much tension and one might carelessly touch inappropriate places, adversely affecting male-female relations.
Li Qinghe, after all, was Li Qinghe, and she did not get angry over his mistake, still immersed in the character she was playing.
Xu Fan, not having the heart to interrupt the scene, started unbuttoning her shirt one by one.
Finally, the process ended through Xu Fan's relentless efforts.
At that moment, Li Qinghe lazily lay on the bed, looking at him with eyes as alluring as silk.
The dissonant image reflected in his pupils, Xu Fan grinned, thinking that with such a large-caliber scene, it would likely be difficult to release the film domestically.
"Li Qinghe, I think, you should not continue with this movie…"
