Gu Linyan was playing with his phone when he saw someone come in. He raised his eyes, glanced at Yun Xi, and then calmly moved back to the screen of his phone.

“This is all art, okay?” Director Zhao’s attitude was very magnanimous as he spoke to Yun Xi about acting.

Just like what Ai Zhe said, not only did actresses have to be exposed, the male actors had to be exposed too. Therefore, the audition not only depended on whether the actresses could be open-minded, but also whether there was a sense of connection and chemistry between them and the male actor. It was also dependent on whether they could act out the confrontational sexual tension in the script.

“Otherwise, it would be selling sex and nothing more,” Director Zhao said. “Since we’ve committed to the idea, we should film an effective sex scene.”

Yun Xi was stunned when she heard that.

It turned out that in the eyes of a filmmaker, an effective sex scene was considered art. It didn’t have anything to do with romance or stardom.

Strangely enough, Yun Xi was actually appeased.

What was even more strange was that Gu Linyan, who was lying on the bed, laughed sarcastically and unceremoniously made a remark in response to Director Zhao’s words. “Bullsh*t.”

Yun Xi was shocked and she soon heard him say with a half-smile, “Stop lying to young girls.”

Director Zhao laughed out loud: “I’m just looking for a way to make it up to you.”

Otherwise, after the film was released, the headline would be: Former Best Actor Reduced To Being A Star Who Strips 

Thinking of this, Yun Xi smiled.

“Do you understand the content?” Director Zhao had just told Yun Xi about the background of their sex scene. Seeing her nod, he waved his hand. “Alright, you two can begin.”

Gu Linyan had that half-smile on his face again.

Looking at Yun Xi, he deliberately made a seductive gesture. Patting the bedsheet in front of him, he said exaggeratedly, “Come on, baby.”

Yun Xi: “…”

This person was more or less different from what she had imagined.

Although Gu Linyan had already won the Best Actor award, he was not that old. He had debuted at the age of eighteen and won the best newcomer award for his first drama. After that, he shot to fame and rose to stardom, winning the best actor award at the age of twenty-two. This year, he was only twenty-five years old.

He had always faced the outside world with a stable and gentle persona. After seeing him today, she felt that he was… a little like a Chūnibyō.

Yun Xi’s mind was filled with his casual and teasing just now, which caused Director Zhao to finish speaking, but she still stood on the spot without moving.

Gu Linyan was still lying on the bed, looking at her with a faint smile.

Director Zhao folded his arms at the side and looked without saying anything.

Yun Xi’s mind went numb. She was thinking, ‘What should I do now?’

‘Strip? No way.’

After pondering through the movie plot that Director Zhao had told her, Yun Xi pinched her palms and smiled at Gu Linyan.

That smile did not contain any traces of lust or any emotions at all. It was just pure, and she looked like a young girl who could not help but smile when she saw the person she loved.

Compared to her pure white European pajamas, it was actually so clean that it seemed to carry a holy light.

Director Zhao was stunned.

He saw Yun Xi kick off her shoes and walk towards Gu Linyan barefooted.

Her feet were very white, and her toes were round and cute. The soles of her feet were suffused with a light pink color. She was only a few steps away and it was as if she had stepped on a man’s heart.

Yun Xi recalled what Director Zhao had said.

This was the first sex scene between the two of them. Gu Linyan discovered that the female gangster had a wild personality. Under the pretext of protecting her, he kissed her passionately in the dark alley, amidst the chaos of the gunshots.

Adrenaline surged and hormones raged within him at the same time, and perhaps with the drawbridge effect, the female gangster could not help but fall in love with him.

After the gunfight ended, the female gangster helped the bodyguard bandage his wound. The two of them ended up together amidst the aftertaste of surviving the disaster of a frenzied fight.

One could imagine how passionate they should be, unable to control themselves.

Yun Xi, however, acted the exact opposite of the previous scene. She walked slowly to the side of the bed and did not touch Gu Linyan. She knelt on the ground and rested her elbows on the edge of the bed, supporting her face as she looked at Gu Linyan.

Her eyes were sparkling as if they contained a galaxy of stars. They were also filled with adoration and love.

Gu Linyan looked into her eyes, and his expression subconsciously became gentle.

The two of them did not speak until Yun Xi stretched out her fair hand and grabbed Gu Linyan’s wrist.

Her movements were very light and gentle as if she was testing the waters..
