Sheng Ting glanced at the girl beside her. Her radiant countenance was quite alluring.

His gaze deepened and he asked in a relaxed manner, “Dinner together tonight?”

Gu Mang looked down. Standing languidly with legs bent and typing on her phone slowly, she replied mildly, “I have something on tonight.”

Sheng Ting sighed regretfully. “All right, next time then.”

Anyways, there would be more opportunities for them to work together in the future.

…

In the suburban district of the capital, inside the sumptuous clubhouse.

The entire private room was full of juniors from the capital’s powerful families. Their appearances were all outstanding.

A few people gathered around a table to play mahjong.

Qin Fang dropped a card casually.

“Mahjong!” He Yidu’s smile was quite deserving of a beating. “Old Qin, do you want to count how much you lost tonight?”

“F*ck!” Qin Fang cursed. The old beast won the mahjong off of his tiles. He really wanted to flip the table.

Yu Mufeng pushed the tiles. Holding the cigarette between his fingertips, he rested his hand on the corner of the table and smiled sinisterly. “Brother Qin, do you want to have Brother Cheng subst.i.tute for you? He has been sitting there holding his cell phone. Is he waiting for a call?”

Like wolves who smelled meat, the others’ eyes turned to look at Brother Cheng.

Who could make Brother Cheng wait for a call? Qin Fang looked back at the man with long legs resting on the coffee table, not knowing where he should start explaining.

“Why so nosy!” He put the cigarette in his mouth and rubbed the tiles, “Come, come, come. Again. I can’t believe I can’t win tonight! Dammit.”

Yu Mufeng shrugged.

Lu Chengzhou sat comfortably on the sofa. The collar of his black s.h.i.+rt was unb.u.t.toned, revealing his pretty, well-defined collarbone and s.e.xy throat. His cuffs were rolled up, revealing half of his arms. He held his cellphone in between his clean fingertips, spinning it intermittently. In his other hand was a cigarette. The lighting was dim near the sofa, making his skin appear an exquisite white.

Suddenly, the cell phone rang. He stopped for a moment and unlocked the phone with his fingerprint. It was an unread message in WeChat.

Gu Mang: “Ending about six o’clock at the capital’s film studio.”

Short and sweet.

Lu Chengzhou put away the cell phone and stood languidly with his straight and slender legs. He bent down and put out the cigarette in the ashtray before grabbing the suit jacket from the sofa.

Qin Fang saw him and shouted, “Brother Cheng, are you going out?”

Lu Chengzhou nodded, his voice languid and low as he said, “You guys have fun.”

…

At the film studio.

The MV shooting was almost over. Only the duet dance between Sheng Ting and Gu Mang was left. There were a few minutes of intermission as they made preparations.

Xiao Zhou came over with water and said excitedly, “G.o.d Gu, Brother Ting, there was so much chemistry between the two of you. It was so beautiful!”

Both of their dance styles were wild, s.e.xy, and cla.s.sy.

Gu Mang took the mineral water, uncapped it, and drank a mouthful. She looked at her stomach and said, “It’s free education for the kid.”

Xiao Zhou laughed.

Sheng Ting stuffed a hand in his pocket and asked with a smile, “Do we look like a couple?”

Xiao Zhou nodded vigorously. They were both wearing red clothes. It really made them look like a couple.

Gu Mang made no comments about it. After drinking the water the makeup artist came to reapply Gu Mang’s lipstick.

After a short break, Bian Jinchi called them over loudly. They were at the last shooting session of the entire MV. Only ten seconds were left but these last seconds would capture the essence of the whole MV.

Sheng Ting and Gu Mang stood under the red ball of curtain. The red light reflected off of them. Their movements were especially moving. It was so mesmerizing.

When the music stopped Sheng Ting and Gu Mang were standing back to back.

Gu Mang, whose eyelids had been half-covering her eyes, opened her eyes. Her black, bright eyes were mesmerizing, powerful, wild, and icy. The wildness was bursting out of her expression. Suddenly, her cool gaze froze.
