âGu Chuyan, youâve got this. You must find a way to cure him!â She said softly. After putting on her shoes, she returned to her bedroom.
As she lay on the bed, she felt a warm sweetness in her heart.
Logically speaking, he was a stranger to her, but she didnât find him repulsive. On the contrary, she was drawn to him in an inexplicable way.
âGu Chuyan, stop thinking about it.â She whispered, pulling the covers over herself.
In the study, Xiao Mohan watched her spirited figure, his body suddenly stirring as if electrified, and he stood up abruptly.
âXiao Mohan, when I earn seven figures, I will hire all the specialist doctors to treat you.â Her words echoed in his ears.
He leaned his hand against his forehead. Did she think he was infertile? Why did she have this misconception? Where did it all go wrong?
âRingâ An eerie bell rang inside the villa. Xiao Mohan paused and then strode out the door.
Gu Chuyan had not slept well. Under her dark circles, the wound on her forehead was looking better after applying the medicine. She sat on the bed, running a hand through her hair.
âSince I donât have to go to school for now, should I take up temporary work?â She thought and got up to get dressed. After changing into a sweater and leggings, brushing up and stepping outside, she found that both Xiao Mohan and Han Changqing were absent.
Just then, a figure appeared blocking her path.
âHuh.â Startled, she retreated half a step, her heart pounding.
The man, standing politely in front of her asked, âMaâam, are you planning to go out?â
âWho are you?â
âI am your driver,â he said, holding out car keys, asking her to go downstairs and offering to drive her downtown.
As Gu Chuyan stood by the side of the road, biting her lip, a piece of paper fluttered down in front of her.
âTemporary work wanted.â She picked up the paper and scanned it, noting that there was a theater group needing stand-ins, offering 500 yuan a day, meals, and transport included.
She pulled out her phone and made a call. The other side, desperate for personnel and not requiring an interview, told her to wait 5 minutes for a driver to pick her up and deliver her to the film city once she confirmed she could endure hardship.
Gu Chuyan was visiting a film set for the first time and quickly realised that the life of a movie star was not as glamorous as she had imagined.
âGu Chuyan?â Just then, a field producer walked over and peered at her before asking.
âYes, thatâs me,â she replied, radiating a warm smile.
The man checked a box on his notepad and told her, âGo and change. Five minutes later, you need to jump off that cliff over there.â
âAlright.â Gu Chuyan, looking at the rock in question, felt that the jump wouldnât be much of a problem given it wasnât too high.
âVery good.â The man patted her shoulder before turning away to manage the rest of the personnel.
Gu Chuyan donned a white ancient-style dress, her long hair flowing loosely over her shoulders. Without makeup, she still exuded a pure and ethereal beauty. With every step, an aura seemed to radiate from her that held peopleâs gaze.
This was a mountain, shrouded in an almost mystical mist. She fit perfectly, as if she was meant to reside here.
âWho is she?â
âI heard sheâs an extra.â
As the whispers about Gu Chuyan arose, she paid them no mind. Dressed in the thin, ancient-style robe, she was a bit cold. She took her place on the rock, the camera pointed at her back.
âAction.â The director sat, staring at her figure, and he too, was momentarily stunned..
