Chapter 1

Yi Ran just got out of the taxi when her friend Zhang Rongrong's phone call came. She picked up the

phone and looked back at the signboard for the health club, confirming that she had not arrived at the

wrong place.

Zhang Rongrong told her, "I have already booked it. There are still some people here so I will come

later. You should go ahead."

"En, I know. Then hurry up.” After she spoke, she turned and stepped through the front door.

After the young girl at the front desk verified Yi Ran's information, she entered the waiting area to find

a place to sit down. On the table was a cup of iced drink that was still emitting a cold chill. 

In fact, it was only thanks to Zhang Rongrong's members.h.i.+p card that she was able to come to this

health club, which was not only extremely expensive but had the most strict members.h.i.+p system in

S City. Naturally, she couldn't help but look at the decor.

There was a ma.s.sive antique screen in the lobby. On the wall hung many calligraphy and paintings.

Most of them were ink paintings depicting the landscape, the style very elegant and refined. The

atmosphere had the subtle scent of Chinese medicine mixed with sandalwood, giving people a sense

of calm harmony.

She lowered her head and turned on her mobile phone to brush Weibo, conveniently signing in to pa.s.s

the time. During the waiting time, she heard the words “has already arranged” and “the VIP's car is at

the door.” Before she could think much of the words, she saw from the corner of her eyes two slender

figures entering and then going upstairs one after another.

One of the men was dressed in a suit. His figure was tall and straight, and his stride was firm and

steady. It was so eye-catching that she couldn't help but look after him. Unfortunately, she was only

able to see his back view.

One of the men in a suit was handsome and steady, and the pace was steady. It was so eye-catching

that she couldn't help but look at it. Unfortunately, she only saw more than half of her back.

Yi Ran pursed her lips and took a few mouthfuls of iced tea to quench her sudden thirst, which

immediately made her feel cool and pleasant.

After a moment, the attendant said that the room was ready. She followed the person up to the third

floor. The person smiled and told her, “Guest, please take a rest. We will prepare tea and snacks for

you right away. You can take a shower first.”

She nodded and took a few steps through the door. The layout of the room was more atmospheric

than expected. The outside was a small hall for the guests to rest. There was a separate bathroom

on the side, and in the middle of the platform was a ma.s.sage bed.

Through the internal loudspeaker came the low, trembling sound of the zither. Yi Ran kneaded the

s.p.a.ce between her eyebrows and her expression displayed a sense of exhaustion. As an “outstanding”

elementary school language teacher, just one week of cla.s.s was sufficient to make her feel fatigued.

However, when she walked in to lie down, she saw a young man lying on the bed. He was lying face

down completely naked, revealing a smooth and firm back. Only a small blanket covered his b.u.t.tocks.

Yi Ran's brows wrinkled, and her head grew blank. After a while, she managed to react, thinking that

perhaps she had entered the wrong room. But, when she wanted to turn around, she couldn't help but

turn her eyes back. The aroma of essential oils drifted up to her nose, giving off a scent of sweetness.

The man's body was neither thin nor burly, displaying a perfect physique with a distinct back showing

the dip of his spine that sloped down to his lean waist. The entire line from shoulders to calves was

smooth and gentle, yet also eluding a sense of strength. His skin looked soft and bright, especially the

rise and fall of his b.u.t.t. She hadn't seen such a perfect curve before.

Hearing the movement in the room, the man finally looked up. Because he was in a state of rest, his

eyes blinked for a moment before he quickly recovered. After staring at her for a few seconds, he said,

“Are you the manager? Did my a.s.sistant call you?”

Seeing the face of the person in front of her, Yi Ran felt horrified. If she wasn't mistaken, she saw the

man's photo on the Internet...

At the time, Yi Ran felt that his figure was above average and his appearance was outstanding, but he

did not seem to like to laugh. Many times, his mouth was pressed in a tight line. She heard that his

temperament was cold and eccentric. He was not only called a “Ghost Talent” by the industry, but he

was also a single man that many ladies would love to capture.

Naturally, there were many s.e.x scandal revolving around him. From small television actresses to

international film stars to second generation daughters of wealthy families, all wanted to monopolize

him.

In short, this Gu Tingchuan was without a doubt a young and talented big director who had became

the standard for male characters in romance novels.

The other party was clearly displeased. “I normally use a male ma.s.seuse."

Yi Ran also woke up and was full of apologies. With an expression of innocence, she said, "...sorry, I

am not a manager, I merely came to the wrong room."

Gu Tingchuan's expression was strict and disciplined. His eyes flashed, but he still managed to look

indifferent. “Are you not?”

“I don't know what's going on. It was the attendant was the one who brought me in…”

At this time, the attendant returned. When he saw the situation, he was stunned and speechless. He

apologizing again and again, saying that the front desk had been making mistakes today and he will

investigate.

After hearing this explanation, Yi Ran relaxed her nerves. The attendant gave them two more apologies.

She had to wave her hand and say that she was not inconvenient. After all, she came in through the

back door.

The man was still partially naked and gooseb.u.mps p.r.i.c.kled across her skin. She could seen glimpse a

trace of his hip bone, where the towel had slipped back when he moved.

"Sorry, Mr. Gu, we will go out first."

Yi Ran head the attendant say this, so she just smiled and said to the man, “Mr. Go, sorry to bother you.”

As she walked back, she couldn't help but glanced back one last time. At this moment, Gu Tingchuan's

a.s.sistant seemed to have arrived. He turned his face and said something to the a.s.sistant. In short, he

didn't look very happy.

Yi Ran sighed from the bottom of her heart, trying to save the director's body in her mind as a video

and used this brain to make up a lot of unspeakable plots.

“I am sorry to have troubled you. We will upgrade the package for you free of charge.”

“It doesn't matter. I don't mind.”

She smiled when the attendant shot her suspicious look. 

......

Within a few days, the streets and alleys of S City were full of propaganda posters for the “White Birch

Award” film festival. In order to meet the beloved idol, the fans also booked the tickets early.

Zhang Rongrong was the brain-destroyed fangirl of the big star He Yang and wanted to go see this

Adonis's graceful bearing in person. Yi Ran did not have much fanaticism for the three-dimensional

star, but after some careful thinking, she also agreed to go together.

In the evening, the red carpet was glistening with starlight, and the two sides were crowded with movie

lovers. Yi Ran glanced at the crowd and took the paper towel handed over by her friend to wipe the

sweat from her forehead. “How many people are there? Ah, I can't stand that heat.”

Zhang Rongrong was also infected by this inexplicable excitement and talked incessantly. "The crew

of "Dark River" will be in attendance. Of course, everyone is excited!"

Yi Ran involuntarily thought of Gu Tingchuan's powerful body. She really didn't expect this boss

director to have such good-looking muscles on his body.

Zhang Rongrong shot her an unscrupulous look. "You are thinking about that day..."

The words have not yet fallen when a man and a woman appeared on the red carpet. Some people

shouted in the crowd, "He's here! It's Gu Tingchuan!!"

The man on the red carpet was dressed in a black suit, and the actress next to him was the hottest big

name in the drama world. Her backless dress swayed as she walked.

She gently held the arm of her male partner, and the pace was elegant and calm. At first glance, it was

a picture of seduction for the eyes. Even Yi Ren could not help but stretch her neck to see.

As the man and woman got closer and closer, the fans around them cheered like loud chickens and

screamed their names.

Yi Ran had a headache and pinched the area between her eyebrows. She had been squeezed and

was unable to move. It just so happened that the female star stopped in front of them and reached out

to sign autographs for some fans.

The crowd became wild and flocked over.

There was only a few meters between Yi Ran and the two celebrities. At this time, the man on the red

carpet was definitely not the one attracting people's attention. He suddenly cast a look at her, and the

penetration of the eyes was too strong. Just like fixing her firmly in place.

She stared at him in a daze, even as a cl.u.s.ter of fireworks exploded in her head and her chest grew

tight.

Around them, the shutter of cameras and the screams of the crowd filled their eardrums, but it was as

if Yi Ran heard nothing. At this moment, she could feel nothing but the pounding of her heart.

Gu Tingchuan seemed to seriously looked down at her for a while, when the corners of his mouth lifted

suddenly, looking almost like a smile. But there was no more movement, and he turned back to his

partner. He whispered a few words with the actress, as everything that just happened was just a small

episode.

Zhang Rongrong's excited face was red, and when the two slowly went away, she madly shook Yi Ran

and said, “He seems to remember you? My G.o.d, I wasn't imagining it, right? You are too lucky! Yi Ran,

you are lucky in love!"

Yi Ran looked up and glanced at Gu Tingchuan's back. She had to admit that the director Gu was

indeed a charming man.

Gu Tingchuan's facial features were sharp, the nose was handsome, and the deep twilight of his eyes

was clear and resplendent under the light of the red carpet. His aura was truly outstanding, and his

talent was even more impressive. It was really a high-ranking person who lives in a different world

from them.

This was really a man who had every kind of merits. She also finally understood that even this kind of

individual didn't even need to speak a word for women to rush to his side.

It was not easy for Yi Ran to gain her senses. Then, she turned her head and showed a smug smile to

her friend. She opened her mouth to tease, “Of course. This time, I am lucky.”
