The Security Guard Who Won the Heart of the Unattainable Actress - Chapter 31.1

Chapter 31

“Who would carry something like that with them? How strange would that be?”

Answer: Teacher Ran is the kind of person who would carry something like that with them.

Oh?

Li Guang’s silence at this moment fully reflected her inner thoughts. She looked at Ran Mingyue’s expression and remembered how at the beginning of the show, Ran Mingyue said her suitcase couldn’t be opened and wanted to switch with her.

Li Guang now knew why Ran Mingyue wanted to switch.

The unspeakable thing in the suitcase. Li Guang knew what it was.

“Don’t look at me with that kind of expression. I just put it in there on a whim.” Ran Mingyue’s explanation seemed weak. The redness on her ears gradually climbed under Li Guang’s gaze, as if they were about to catch fire. “It’s a souvenir, you know? When I got it, I was told it was a souvenir.”

“I get it.” Li Guang said she understood. To keep Ran Mingyue from feeling awkward, she tried to make her expression as serious as possible.

“I understand.” Li Guang took the round, squishy stopper. The soft fluff touching her palm sent a shiver down her spine.

“Li Guang, you can’t misunderstand me!” Ran Mingyue knew from Li Guang’s expression that her thoughts were going in the wrong direction. “I didn’t have any other intentions, and I don’t need it.”

The more she explained, the darker it looked.

Ran Mingyue’s urgency made Li Guang want to laugh. Ran Mingyue was rarely flustered. This was the first time she’d ever seen it.

This souvenir.

It was truly amazing.

“What are you two talking about?” Ji Yuan’s voice came from the living room. “Li Guang, what are we going to do? Have you thought of a solution? We don’t have much time.”

Right, there wasn’t much time. It had to work now, no matter what.

“I have something here. See if it works,” Li Guang said. “Don’t be surprised.”

“No matter what it is, it has to work now.” Ji Yuan leaned in to look. When the thing in Li Guang’s palm was revealed, his expression was priceless.

“Yours?”

Li Guang quickly glanced at Ran Mingyue and said with a righteous air, “Yes, mine.”

Ran Mingyue: “…”

“Yours? Yours! This…” Ji Yuan’s gaze darted between Ran Mingyue and Li Guang twice, then he took a sharp breath. “Well, I’ll be. Li Guang, you’re into some… pretty wild stuff.”

Even someone like him, who was often on the edge, wouldn’t just pull out a sex toy.

There was no time to explain.

Ji Yuan held the rabbit tail and compared it to the missing tail on Li Guang’s back. The size… was just right, it looked completely natural, as if it had been taken from the same set.

“Where did you get this? It’s a lifesaver. Let’s go, it’s time to start filming.” Ji Yuan beckoned the cameraman and said to Ran Mingyue, “Uh, Teacher Ran… don’t misunderstand. Our Li Guang is very pure. She’s not the kind of person to mess around. Maybe she just collected it because she thought it was pretty.”

Right?

Ji Yuan felt guilty for Li Guang as he said these words.

Li Guang said, “Teacher Ran, you wouldn’t misunderstand me, would you?”

“…No.” Ran Mingyue knew Li Guang was deliberately teasing her. Since Ji Yuan was here, Ran Mingyue couldn’t tell the truth. Li Guang had taken it upon herself to protect her image, so Ran Mingyue went along with what Li Guang said. “It’s just a coincidence.”

“Right, right, just a coincidence.” Ji Yuan wiped some sweat, told Li Guang to come with him, and then lowered his voice to ask her, “Do you have a girlfriend?”

Li Guang almost jumped up, her surprise causing the fat bunny ears on her hoodie to tremble. “How could that be?! Don’t talk nonsense here!”

“No? Then why would you be carrying this thing?!” Ji Yuan wanted to flick Li Guang’s forehead, but he saw Ran Mingyue was still behind them and held himself back.

He had seen Li Guang wear this outfit twice before, but it still made him feel that…

It was truly… no wonder the fans were drooling in his comments section, asking for the original link to this outfit to use to seduce their own partners.

The elements were cute and innocent, but when piled on and paired with Li Guang’s face, the atmosphere changed after the rabbit tail was added. Innocent and pure collided with bold and provocative, maximizing the power of seduction.

In the adult world, red is the color of passion, and yellow is the color of a dirty mind.

Hiss, it’s not the outfit’s problem, it’s the viewer’s problem.

Seduction without being aware of it is a person’s greatest charm.

Ran Mingyue watched from behind.

Ji Yuan and Li Guang were whispering, and the prop master had already secured the tail to the back of Li Guang’s outfit.

It was just right. The mischievous rabbit ear peeked out from between the two large ears. The loose fit of the hoodie was long enough to cover her hips, so the position of the rabbit tail… was just perfect.

From her angle, Li Guang’s back was to her, but the rabbit tail was facing her directly.

Ran Mingyue used her strong self-control to look away.

The first time this souvenir was used was not what she had imagined, but the effect was beyond her expectations.

“Shouldn’t you be thanking me? All we needed was a prop. Don’t worry about it so much. Anyway, I’m not using it for that!” Li Guang pushed Ji Yuan away, knowing there was no way to explain it clearly anyway. She decided to just finish the job first.

“Let’s go, let’s start! The sooner we finish, the sooner we can wrap up.”

Ji Yuan took off his jacket, revealing the vest underneath.

Li Guang was startled and immediately turned to look at Ran Mingyue. She asked Ji Yuan in a low voice, “Should we let Teacher Ran watch from the side?”

Ji Yuan said, “Sure! Didn’t I say that the sponsors can watch whatever they want? I’d take off all my clothes if they wanted me to.”

“…”

Li Guang and Ji Yuan were filming on the sofa in the living room. Ran Mingyue didn’t come close. She leaned lazily against the kitchen island in the open kitchen, not disturbing them.

At first, Li Guang was a bit restrained.

The photographer kept guiding them. It wasn’t just about coming up with poses on her own. Slowly, Li Guang managed to ignore the gaze from the other side.

“Yes, yes, just like that. Li Guang’s face needs to be a little closer. Hmm, perfect!” The photographer snapped away, marveling at how photogenic Li Guang was. “Li Guang looks good from every angle. Good, very good, that’s right. The expression is fantastic…”

The photographer had worked with many celebrities and influencers.

But he had never seen anyone whose superior features couldn’t be hidden by a face mask.

The more she was covered, the more she sparked curiosity.

Li Guang relaxed her body amid the photographer’s praises. Ran Mingyue watched for a while, a faint smile on her lips.

She could see that Li Guang’s performance in front of the camera was very good.

After a full day of filming, this was surprisingly the most relaxed Li Guang had been.

Ran Mingyue couldn’t help but reflect on her own actions. Why did she say those things to Li Guang before? It seemed like their relationship was going to be stagnant again.

She had mentally prepared herself, knowing that she had to take things slowly, otherwise she would scare the girl away.

But when a person is ruled by emotion, they forget about all the consequences. In love, she was a novice, so she couldn’t grasp the right balance.

Li Guang didn’t believe her.

If she didn’t believe her words, she naturally wouldn’t believe her affection. Her very existence made Li Guang afraid.

Ran Mingyue thought that when she was strong enough, she could protect everything. But she never considered that too much glory could also inspire fear.

Thinking of this, Ran Mingyue’s eyes clearly dimmed.

“Okay! Now, please interact! This is the last set of poses requested by the brand.” The photographer said, “The interaction needs to have that pink-bubble-filled atmosphere.”

Li Guang looked confused. “Huh?”

What was a pink-bubble atmosphere?

“Look at me. Sorry, I’m just going to touch you.” Ji Yuan lifted Li Guang’s chin so she was looking directly at him.

Li Guang: “?”

Ji Yuan slowly lowered his head. The photographer began to prepare to press the shutter—

“Ah!” Ji Yuan screamed, and Li Guang instantly slapped his head away from her personal space. “What are you doing? If you use your hands, I’ll use my hands!”

“Li Guang! Li Guang! Can’t we have some good friend chemistry?! I’m just doing this for work!” Ji Yuan covered his face, feeling patient, angry, and wronged.

He was also at a loss. Li Guang might really have romance allergies.

The photographer looked at the replay on his camera, at the frozen moment when Ji Yuan was slapped away, and fell silent.

“It was a reflex. I’m sorry. I can’t seem to control my hands. It just feels weird,” Li Guang said, touching the back of her head. “…I don’t know how to do the pink-bubble effect.”

Ji Yuan: “Haven’t you ever been in a relationship?! When you’re with your partner, don’t you kiss, hug, and pick them up? That kind of thing!”

“Never been in one.” Li Guang’s face was blank. “I don’t know.”

“Then you’ve at least acted in romance scenes!” Ji Yuan said. “This outfit is for the ladies out there. Just cooperate a little. I’m a borderline influencer, so give me some content to post on Douyin.”

“I’ve never acted in a romance scene…” Li Guang said with a pained expression. Suddenly, she remembered, “A small part in a big play doesn’t count, right?”

“A big play? Oh, right! That one! With Teacher Ran…” Ji Yuan suddenly realized. He looked at Ran Mingyue, choking up. He tentatively asked, “Teacher Ran, you have a lot of experience with romance scenes. Would you mind teaching her?”

Ran Mingyue held a paper cup, completely unaware that the rim had been indented by her thumb.

She walked over, seemingly intending to give some pointers. Ji Yuan was very quick to serve, immediately taking the water cup from Ran Mingyue with a fawning gesture. He couldn’t resist asking, “Teacher Ran, why are you drinking iced water in the middle of winter?”

“I’m a little hot.” Ran Mingyue said, her gaze landing on Li Guang in front of her.

Ji Yuan said “oh” and asked with concern, “I don’t think I’ve heard that iced water can help with that.”

“It can’t.”

Ran Mingyue said it couldn’t put out the fire in her heart.

Li Guang: “…”

“Shall I guide you?” Ran Mingyue asked Li Guang. “Is that okay?”

If she guided her, they could finish filming immediately, and the sooner they finished, the sooner they could get paid. To say no would be to go against money.

Li Guang nodded. “Yes, yes!”

Li Guang was still sitting on the sofa, and Ran Mingyue was standing behind it. She didn’t come to the front but instead bent down. Her fingers reached over the sofa and gently lifted Li Guang’s chin.

Unlike Ji Yuan, Ran Mingyue used a little more force when she lifted Li Guang’s chin. Li Guang unconsciously straightened her back and leaned back with Ran Mingyue’s movement.

Her beautiful swan-like neck was fully exposed, and the collarbones connected to it were deeply defined.

Ran Mingyue’s gaze was not on Li Guang’s lips but on the deep shadow of her collarbone.

When the chin of the girl in the bunny suit was lifted, due to her body position, her eyes looked towards the other person’s lips. The light fell into her confused and lost eyes, making her look like a fragile toy.

Nothing was exposed, yet everything was revealed.

“Oh my god…” Ji Yuan was so shocked by this scene that he wanted to slap himself. What kind of imagination or pink-bubble atmosphere did he need?! Teacher Ran was a true teacher. With just one move, she created a scene where desire was pushed to the extreme!

“Yes! Just like that!” The photographer excitedly pressed the shutter. “Li Guang and Teacher Ran have great chemistry.”

“Use your imagination,” Ran Mingyue said, letting go of her hand. She spoke in a voice that only she and Li Guang could hear. “Just think about what would happen if you went into that little room with someone you like.”

Li Guang blinked twice, snapping back to reality.

“Or,” Ran Mingyue said, “change the face. When you’re filming with Ji Yuan, put the face of someone you have a good impression of on him.”

Ran Mingyue stopped there. She didn’t want to pressure Li Guang. She picked up her cup of iced water and walked to the side.

Li Guang and Ji Yuan continued to film. Ran Mingyue wasn’t idle. She poured a hot tea for all the staff. She still had some basic hospitality.

But she herself was still drinking iced water.

She had to drink iced water to suppress the fire.

With Ran Mingyue’s guidance, Li Guang and Ji Yuan continued filming.

How could Li Guang dare to think about entering that room with someone she liked? She could only use the second option and swap out Ji Yuan’s face.

Whose face should she use?

Li Guang’s thoughts drifted, and she found that Ji Yuan’s face had turned into Ran Mingyue’s.

It seemed that after she changed the face to Ran Mingyue’s, her heart started to race.

What if she imagined herself going into that room with Sister Mingyue?

Li Guang’s heart was racing.

“Yes, yes! Just like that, that’s it… Good, you have so much chemistry!” The photographer praised and snapped away. “Li Guang is in the zone. Great! Okay! Wrap it up!”

Li Guang slapped her cheeks to wake herself up.

I substituted the wrong person!!! How could she have filmed so fast after substituting Sister Mingyue?

After looking at the raw footage, Ji Yuan came over to Li Guang and said, “It’s going to sell like crazy, Li Guang. I’m rooting for you. If you get famous, don’t forget me, your brother. Get rich, get a girlfriend, and don’t forget the ones who were there for you!”

Li Guang said, “It’s not that easy to get rich… It was all thanks to Teacher Ran’s guidance.”

Right, it was “Teacher Ran” again now.

Ran Mingyue walked over and happened to hear this. She put the teapot down with a thump.

“Everyone has worked hard. Have a cup of hot tea before you go. It’s cold.”

She had stood on the side to watch Li Guang and Ji Yuan film, originally just to watch Li Guang.

But it turned out that watching Li Guang walk back and forth in that outfit was torture for her.

She would have been better off not watching.

She just stood there. Ji Yuan drank his tea and felt warm all over. He was whispering to Li Guang again. “When did you get so close to Teacher Ran? You never told me.”

“…I’m not. Teacher Ran is just a good person and was willing to lend us the space to film. Don’t look at me like that. I’m going to go change my clothes first.”

Li Guang didn’t drink the tea. She was already hot and didn’t need to warm up anymore. She felt like she should drink iced water just like Ran Mingyue.

She went to change her clothes and finally felt comfortable. It was still more comfortable to wear her work uniform, even if it didn’t fit perfectly.

While Li Guang was changing, Ran Mingyue came up to the photographer. “Did you take a picture of Li Guang and me just now?”

“Yes, yes… I was just so excited that I took it. My apologies, Teacher Ran. I’ll delete it!” The photographer understood. How much did it cost to take a photo of someone of Ran Mingyue’s status? There was no way he could just take a picture whenever he wanted. He immediately understood and pulled up the photo in front of Ran Mingyue, ready to delete it.

“Wait.” Ran Mingyue stopped him. “Can you send me a copy?”

“Huh?” The photographer thought he had heard wrong. Ji Yuan was the first to react. “Yes, of course! Teacher Ran, should I add you? When the footage comes out, I’ll send it all to you.”

“Okay,” Ran Mingyue said. “Please send me any photos of Li Guang as well.”

She paused for a moment and added, “I want to check my teaching results.”

“No problem!”

After Ji Yuan added Ran Mingyue, he felt that Li Guang was truly his lucky star. Now he could officially brag that he knew Ran Mingyue!

Li Guang came out. Ran Mingyue had just gone to the kitchen to clean up. Ji Yuan now looked at Li Guang as if she were a glowing bodhisattva. He asked with a smile, “My good Guangguang, what do you want to do after you get rich?”

Li Guang said, “Lie flat and sunbathe.”

Ji Yuan said, “Don’t you think you should consider your love life? With money and time, how can you not find a partner?”

Li Guang shook her head. “I can’t even think about that.”

She really couldn’t.

She had never thought about being in a relationship. The only thing related to romance had happened today.

Ran Mingyue lowered her gaze and put the clean cups into the cabinet. The open cabinet door completely concealed her expression. No one knew about the sigh in her heart.

“Li Guang, Li Guang, where are you?”

Li Guang had just put on her work uniform and her earpiece when Wang Rou’s voice came through the staff channel. “The guests have all come down. The cameras are on. We’re starting work in ten minutes.”

“A job’s coming?” Ji Yuan asked. “I won’t bother you. I’ll leave after you finish filming. I’ll transfer the money to you when it comes in.”

Ran Mingyue walked up to Li Guang. “Go back.”

Li Guang said, “Thank you, Sister Mingyue. Thank you for all your help, for providing the location, and for teaching me how to pose for photos.”
