Spilling the Tea on the Movie Star Who Won't Leave Me Alone - Chapter 14

The two of them went over the scene on the lawn behind the rest area. Gu Jingxuan looked at the word “kiss” in the script and then stole a glance at Xu Chi’s lips.

They were a pale pink and quite beautiful. They probably felt very soft to the kiss. Would they be as soft as jelly, like they described in novels?

In less than ten minutes, Xu Chi began to shiver from the cold. He was only wearing the long dress. Because Director Jiang had forbidden wearing extra layers underneath, Xu Chi had only stuck on two heat patches, terrified of being found out.

As the end of the year approached, the temperature in the film city dropped lower and lower, already hitting ten degrees below zero. Xu Chi was covered in goosebumps, and his legs couldn’t stop shaking.

Seeing that Xu Chi was starting to stammer from the cold, Gu Jingxuan quickly took off his own coat and draped it over the boy’s shoulders, speaking with a hint of reproach.

“You should know better than to come out without dressing warmer. This isn’t even the official take yet. Are you planning to give yourself frostbite?”

Wrapped in Gu Jingxuan’s coat, Xu Chi’s face turned an impossible shade of red. It was hard to tell if it was from the cold or from the shame of being scolded by Gu Jingxuan.

“I forgot there weren’t any heaters arranged for this area, so I just walked over like this.” Xu Chi bit his lower lip. He felt warm all over, though he wasn’t sure if it was the actual coat working or simply because the coat belonged to Gu Jingxuan.

“Fine. Let’s head back; it’s freezing out here. We’ll just wait for Director Jiang to go over the scene one more time and we should be good to go. Just relax and perform for this next scene.” Gu Jingxuan had no worries about the upcoming take; in fact, he was looking forward to seeing Xu Chi’s performance.

“Scene 49, Take 1! Action!”

“Young Master, a young lady is here to see you.” A knock sounded at the door, and a maid’s voice drifted through.

“Let her in.” Jiang Xian (played by Gu Jingxuan) set down his cup and turned the jade ring on his left hand, his voice gentle and warm.

The door was pushed open, and a veiled woman entered. The lavender-clad figure slowly walked toward him.

“Young Master Jiang.”

The voice wasn’t as soft as a woman’s. It was intentionally pitched high, yet it remained pleasant to the ear.

Jiang Xian could tell at a glance that this was a man, but he couldn’t help thinking to himself that the figure was truly exquisite.

“And what business does this young lady have with me?” He intentionally emphasized the word “lady,” causing the figure before him to shudder.

“I heard that you had work available here, Young Master, so I came to seek a position,” Chu Xie (played by Xu Chi) said, suppressing his internal irritation.

If it weren’t for Nunu, why would he ever dress up like this to seduce this lecherous man?

“A position?” Jiang Xian looked Chu Xie up and down. “What can a lady like you do?”

As he spoke, he stood up and placed his hand on Chu Xie’s waist. Giving it a light squeeze, he leaned in and whispered into his ear, “Your waist is truly fine, my lady. I happen to be missing someone for my bed. Would you like to join me?”

I’d love to! Xu Chi thought secretly. However, following the script, he lowered his head as if he were being teased and stammered, ” Young Master, please don’t say such things to me.”

Xu Chi’s face was genuinely flushed now. Gu Jingxuan found it amusing and gave Xu Chi’s waist another gentle squeeze.

The texture is great. A fine waist indeed.

Feeling the restless hand on his waist, Xu Chi’s body went stiff. He didn’t dare move, thinking to himself: Brother Gu should be letting go of me now. Why is he still squeezing my waist?

Just as the thought crossed his mind, a cool sensation touched his lips. Immediately after, Gu Jingxuan’s face appeared before him, magnified. He could feel the warmth of Gu’s breath fanning against him.

His entire body tightened at Gu Jingxuan’s proximity. Even his pores seemed to fly open, taking in the cold air.

“Little one, are you really this nervous?”

It was only a staged kiss, yet it made him feel like he was about to lose his mind.
