She drew a tissue and wiped the porridge from the back of her hand as she asked Little Meng, “What script have you brought for me?”


  “Right right right……” Little Meng took out a heavy stack of paper from her bag and placed it on the coffee table. “This is the script for ‘Red Rivers.’ Director Hu has cast you for the role of Bai Wanqin, the younger sister of the female lead. Right right…… the female lead is Ms. Lin Nuan!”


  “Sister Xiao Nuan?”


  Yun Liuli walked to the coffee table and picked up the script. She glanced at it, then sat down next to Little Meng and started to peruse it……

  “Red Rivers” was a story about the affluent Bai family, a family of generals. After all 17 sons of the Bai family died in battle, when everyone said the state of Shu was about to perish, the eldest daughter Bai Wanyan led the womenfolk of the Bai family into battle to kill the enemy troops, forming the backbone of the country.

  Yun Liuli hadn’t filmed that many movies, but the instant she read the script, she was enchanted.

  Gu Qingcheng leaned against the head of the bed and gazed at Yun Liuli, who was reading the script seriously, a hint of warmth in the depths of his eyes.

  From how Gu Qingcheng saw it, it was rare to see Yun Liuli so serious……

  Because, to Yun Liuli, everything came easily to her. That was why Yun Liuli seldom took anything to heart.

  He had heard that Yun Liuli found acting very interesting because it was challenging and had a difficulty to it.

  He remembered that the young lady had said seriously to him before, “My interest is Gu Qingcheng, and my hobby is also Gu Qingcheng!”


  Now…… Gu Qingcheng was very happy because Yun Liuli finally had—other than him—some interests and hobbies in life.

  Sheng Kang gazed at Jacob Bellucci’s expression and slightly raised his brows. Was Jacob Bellucci suffering from Stockholm syndrome? He really fell for Yun Liuli because she fed him porridge?

  From how Sheng Kang saw it…… he would be glad to see Yun Liuli get together with Jacob Bellucci!

  The prerequisite being that this matter wouldn’t hurt the two of them!

  Just like what happened last night—Yun Liuli had disregarded Jacob Bellucci’s injuries. So long as something like that didn’t happen again, Sheng Kang could accept this……

  Sheng Kang had stayed there the entire night, and Yun Liuli didn’t get anyone to bring him food, so he was getting hungry. Plus, he needed to take a shower and pack up!

  Sheng Kang gazed at Little Meng, feeling that with others around…… Yun Liuli probably wouldn’t act brazenly towards Jacob Bellucci. Hence, before leaving, he told Yun Liuli…… that he would go back and take a shower and change his clothes, then bring lunch over at noon.

  Jacob Bellucci nodded to thank Sheng Kang.

  Yun Liuli, however, was engrossed in the script and didn’t hear him leave.

  After reading the script for a good while, Yun Liuli seemed to feel that she didn’t get enough of a kick out of it, so she asked Little Meng, “Is this script based on an original novel?”


  Previously, when Yun Liuli filmed “The General,” she had heard that it was based on an original novel, so she went to take a look. She even wrote up a brief biography of the character, so her acting was passable!

  But now, looking back at her performance in “The General,” Yun Liuli felt that…… her acting still fell short of expectations!

  Later, after acting as the princess, Yun Liuli went back and carefully studied her performance, and she felt that she could act better!

  This time, the role of Bai Wanqin was very challenging for Yun Liuli. She wanted to conquer this role!

  Right, conquer!

  Although Yun Liuli appeared to be cold and aloof, she had a strong desire to conquer things she wasn’t familiar with.

  Little Meng shook her head. “No, there isn’t. Director Hu wrote the script himself, so it’s not adapted from an original novel……”


  Yun Liuli nodded. She wanted to look for a notebook and pen in her bag but realized that in her rush to get there last night, she didn’t even bring along her bag. Hence, she instructed Little Meng to go downstairs and help her buy some paper and a pen.

  “Are you very interested?”


  After Little Meng left, Gu Qingcheng asked Yun Liuli.

  Yun Liuli nodded.

  “I rarely see you this serious. You look so pretty!” Gu Qingcheng smiled.

  Yun Liuli gazed up, her ears reddened. She set down the script and jogged to Gu Qingcheng’s bedside, propping her hands on Gu Qingcheng’s side. “Now that Sheng Kang and Little Meng aren’t around, shall we……”


  Before Yun Liuli finished her sentence, Gu Qingcheng had placed his large hand behind Yun Liuli’s head and pulled her into his arms, kissing her.

  Their hot lips met, and it was so hot that Yun Liuli’s arms, which were propped by Gu Qingcheng’s side, nearly lost all strength. Her lips were pried open by his scalding tongue, which brazenly attacked, seizing all air from her mouth and lungs.

  Yun Liuli’s heart was beating furiously. She could sense Gu Qingcheng’s restraint and the violent thumping of his heart as a result of his stirred lust!

  She could hear hot blood gushing through her veins in her ears, feeling that her soul was about to be massaged into his bones and blood.

  She really…… wanted to become Gu Qingcheng’s woman right then and there!

  That was what she had been dreaming of for the longest time. Yun Liuli had an urge to tear away Gu Qingcheng’s clothes, but she knew that she couldn’t, for Little Meng would be back soon!

  Perhaps the more humans knew they mustn’t do something, the greater their desire to do it!

  Yun Liuli’s hand involuntarily squirmed under Gu Qingcheng’s hospital gown, seemingly intuitively. She wanted to press her body against Gu Qingcheng’s body, wanted to tear away his clothes.

  Sensing Yun Liuli’s motive, Gu Qingcheng returned to his senses first and restrained himself. He grabbed Yun Liuli’s wrist, but because his emotions weren’t steady and he didn’t manage to control his strength, Yun Liuli felt that her wrist was about to be snapped by Gu Qingcheng.

  It was only when Gu Qingcheng heard Yun Liuli gasp that he let go, panting heavily.

  Yun Liuli was born fair to begin with. Right now, there was a patch of redness on her wrist.

  Their breathing was awfully messed up, and Yun Liuli’s neck and ears had reddened. She pretended to rub her wrist to soothe the awkwardness, her heart rate over 180 bpm!

  “Let me see your wrist……” Gu Qingcheng extended a hand to Yun Liuli.

  Yun Liuli placed her petite hand into Gu Qingcheng’s palms. The latter stared intently at the red patch on Yun Liuli’s wrist and realized he had exerted too much force. His thumb lightly grazed that patch of redness.

  “I’m okay. I’m just too fair, so the slightest bit of force will cause my skin to turn a scary shade of red!”


  Yun Liuli wanted to retract her hand, but Gu Qingcheng had no intention of letting go.

  Rubbing Yun Liuli’s skinny and petite hand, Gu Qingcheng looked up, the lust in his eyes yet to dissipate. “You’ve been busy doing what you like to do over this period of time, have you been learning with Bai Xiaonian?”


  Yun Liuli’s ears reddened at the mention of learning with Bai Xiaonian. Yun Liuli knew very well what Gu Qingcheng meant by learning.

  She gazed at Gu Qingcheng apologetically. “My schedule has been too tight these days. Plus…… I’ve been focused on conquering acting!”


  Gu Qingcheng gently pulled Yun Liuli closer to him and made her sit down. “Is conquering acting more interesting, or is conquering me more interesting?”
