Chapter 614 The Allure of the Cinema
……
……
Was he saying that in response to me?
"Could it be a confession of love to me?!"
The moment Liu Tianxian's slender white fingers linked with Gu Qing's arm, the words he had just said at the entrance to the red carpet kept replaying in her mind.
She firmly believed that she was a female warrior immune to all cheesy pickup lines.
Having been in this industry for so many years, what kind of cheesy lines haven't I heard?
What kind of idol drama tropes haven't I seen before?
With more experience, the mystique naturally dissipates.
I understand that reality and TV dramas are two completely different worlds.
Those perfect guys don't exist!
cocoa……
How did her junior brother Gu suddenly appear?!
"What you fear is sneaking around, not being open and aboveboard?"
Why can you speak so naturally and calmly?
Xiao Liu lowered her head and buried half of her face in her off-white cashmere scarf.
The soft fleece of the scarf brushed against her chin and nose, releasing a small patch of warm steam from her breath.
The chill that the cold wind had brought on my cheeks when I first took off my mask has now been completely dispelled by the burning sensation rising from under my skin.
Liu Tianxian subconsciously pulled her arm closer, her jade-like shoulder pressed against Gu Qing's shoulder, as if she were being attracted by a magnet.
With each step, their shoulders would gently bump together due to the staggered movement of their steps.
Less than two seconds after they separated, they were pulled back together by the inertia of the next step.
She felt that she was walking like a penguin that wasn't quite awake, but she couldn't control her center of gravity at all.
My head is spinning.
Just before stepping onto the red carpet
A very soft voice suddenly reached Liu Tianxian's ears.
The voice was extremely low, so low that only she could hear it, yet it was exceptionally clear:
"Senior sister, do you like me?"
"Are you...you've lost your mind! So narcissistic—why would I like you?"
Liu Yifei is, after all, a woman, and suddenly being attacked so directly...
She abruptly lifted her head from under the scarf, her pretty face, devoid of makeup, revealing a hint of panic that she couldn't hide.
She turned her head to look at Gu Qing, her words tumbling out incoherently and slightly stuttering, "Junior brother, I just wanted to hold your hand, don't overthink it. Holding hands on the red carpet is perfectly normal, isn't it?"
"I was overthinking it. I really thought you liked me, senior sister."
Upon hearing this,
The fine lines that had been furrowing between Gu Qingqing's brows disappeared, his tone became cheerful as if he had relieved himself of pressure, and his smile was infectious.
"I'm busy building my career, so I don't have time for romance."
"..."
Liu Tianxian couldn't manage a smile for some reason. Her lips moved, managing only a weak curve.
"Junior brother, you've never been in a relationship?"
"No way... You've worked with so many beautiful actresses, and you haven't been attracted to any of them?"
"I don't believe it. I heard you and Yang Mi even had a kissing scene. If you asked me to kiss her, I'd be tempted."
"Of course I've been tempted. I said in a previous interview that acting is like falling in love for me."
Gu Qing's body language completely relaxed. Her wrists swung naturally at her sides before she put them into her coat pockets.
"So about your relationships... never mind, I can't mock you, mocking you is mocking me too, I've done way more movies than you."
"Hahaha--"
He paused slightly as he reached the entrance to the red carpet.
Gu Qing stopped, turned her head to Liu Tianxian and said, "Senior Sister, we've arrived."
at this time,
As the film's start date approached, most of the reporters with tickets had already entered the theater to watch the movie, carrying their equipment in twos and threes as they walked towards the entrance.
Reporters without tickets also carried their cameras and tripods, ready to pack up and call it a day.
They stood outside taking pictures all afternoon in the freezing cold, stamping their feet to keep warm, their breath rising and falling in waves.
A slightly overweight reporter, with his camera hanging around his neck, was breathing warm air into his palms when he inadvertently looked up and glanced in the direction of the red carpet.
His gaze swept over the two figures standing at the front of the red carpet: one tall and slender, the other graceful and tall.
The chubby reporter muttered subconsciously, "Why are there still people here?"
He squinted.
As the sound became clearer, and the faces of the two people in front of them were made visible,
The pupils suddenly dilated to a diameter that shouldn't appear on a human face.
I blurted out, "Holy crap?!"
"You keep using such vague language, can't you use a different word—"
His shout startled a colleague who was packing up his tripod, nearly causing him to drop it on his own foot. The colleague grumbled irritably.
Following the direction of his stunned gaze,
"Holy crap?!"
With a loud crash, the tripod fell onto his feet.
This sound triggered a chain reaction of astonishment and shock.
The reporters who hadn't left yet all raised their hands to rub their eyes:
"Am I seeing things?!"
The reporters' eyes moved from the figure and clothing to the face, and then they couldn't take them off.
It stands to reason,
Celebrities in the entertainment industry don't have dedicated makeup and styling teams, heavy makeup and skincare routines, meticulously adjusted lighting, or post-production retouching.
If they really took off their makeup and walked down the street, some of them might not even be recognized by their most devoted fans.
Those journalists know too much.
I've been to countless airports to take photos and seen countless celebrities who look no different from ordinary people without makeup.
If we're really going to do it with a completely bare face...
The number of handsome men and beautiful women in the entertainment industry will also decrease by more than half.
Truly good-looking people are always a rare breed.
No one understands the true nature of celebrities behind the scenes better than them.
But alas,
Approaching them are two of the most recognized "face-stealers" in the entertainment industry.
One debuted with stunning looks, the other is a "fairy sister".
Its main selling point is that good looks allow you to be carefree.
Early photos of Liu Yifei in her personal style are everywhere, showcasing her unique aesthetic sense and clothing combinations.
Covering one's face is definitely an example of abstract performance art.
But once that head was attached, the style of the entire photo suddenly jumped from "street stall" to "haute couture blockbuster".
When filming the movie "Love Announcement",
She didn't wear any makeup at all from beginning to end. She just washed her hair, put on black-rimmed glasses, and filmed the entire movie with a completely bare face.
Those are high-definition movie shots; every pore on the big screen is clearly visible, demonstrating their high quality.
Gu Qing went even further, appearing on her debut variety show, "Running Man," where the entire cast showcased their bare-faced appearances.
I was blasted out of bed by loudspeakers in the early morning, my hair was a complete mess, and I didn't have a drop of foundation on my face.
Running around the streets and alleys every day, drenched in sweat, without a trace of makeup.
Aside from the early days when he was under the company and wore heavy, idol-like makeup, after gaining control of the situation, he always wore light makeup when going out.
Whether it's receiving an award on stage, walking the red carpet, or filming, they all require photos to be unfiltered and heavily edited.
The two of them walked over, still holding hands intimately.
The reporters, who were already preparing to leave, were completely stunned by this unexpected surprise.
This is a real hardship for the security guards who were originally planning to slack off and call it a day.
They frantically pulled up the half-removed isolation tape again, gritting their teeth and using their bodies to form a shaky human wall.
"Ahhhh-"
Gu Qing never imagined that she would one day hear a man roar in battle and start a fight.
"Ahhh—Gu Qing! Qianqian!!"
Are you two planning to go public with your relationship?!
"Are you two really dating?!"
The reporters' flashes went off one after another, turning the dim winter evening into daylight.
"Everyone, please calm down and don't get too excited."
Gu Qing stopped, smiled, and raised his right hand to indicate the huge "Bleeding Steel" poster on the left.
"My senior sister and I are here to attend Uncle Jackie's premiere, not what you're imagining."
"Does holding hands mean you're in a relationship? Don't write nonsense."
Liu Yifei instinctively closed her left eye when the flash went off, and inexplicably, she started to wink.
She playfully let go of Gu Qing's arm, took a small step back, and rested her hand on her waist. "If I had known you would say such nonsense, I wouldn't have held onto you."
She had one eye closed, one hand on her hip, and her head tilted slightly, with sunglasses perched on the tip of her nose.
His slightly arrogant expression made the male reporters and even the security guards crowded in the isolation zone burst into silly laughter.
"Gu Qing, why did you come with Liu Tianxian?"
One reporter, unmoved by the women, finally squeezed through the crowd to the front, his face flushed red with joy, and came to Gu Qing's side.
"Didn't you guys see the trending topics?"
Gu Qing put his hands into his coat pockets and shrugged helplessly: "I owe my senior sister a meal, I have to repay the favor."
I have to keep my promise from yesterday on my blog, otherwise she'll accuse me of being ungrateful again.
The voice just fell,
"Hey, senior sister, didn't you say you weren't going to make up for it?"
Gu Qing felt his half-bent elbow, which he had just put into his pocket, being pulled back again.
"They've already taken pictures, so they'll definitely write something nonsense."
Liu Tianxian pursed her lips, her lips pouting slightly beneath her sunglasses, her tone full of resentment towards the paparazzi.
"Let's go, let's go, the movie is about to start."
"My senior colleague is urging me to hurry up. My fellow journalists, thank you for your hard work."
Gu Qing smiled and waved to the crowd, then turned and walked towards the cinema entrance with Liu Tianxian.
Reporters without tickets could only look on with envy.
But they showed no regret on their faces, glancing down at the preview image on the camera screen.
Those photos of them walking side by side, hand in hand, are perfectly clear, perfectly composed, and perfectly capturing each other's expressions.
One of the photos shows Liu Yifei with one eye closed and one hand on her hip.
Gu Qingzheng turned his head and looked at her with a smile.
The two people's profiles were outlined by the lights on both sides of the red carpet, creating a soft contour light.
This photo is enough to give them a whole week's worth of headlines.
With Gu Qing and Liu Tianxian making their final appearance, today's trip wasn't entirely in vain.
"Hurry, hurry, go back and write your short essay!"
"I've already thought of the headline—'Gu Qing and Liu Yifei suspected of announcing their relationship, walking hand in hand intimately on the red carpet!'"
"That's such clickbait! People already said they came to see the premiere!"
"What's wrong with clickbait headlines? Clickbait headlines get traffic! Go back and look at all the articles you've written, which one isn't clickbait?"
as predicted,
Xiao Liu had already anticipated the shamelessness of these paparazzi reporters.
The reporters were already exchanging tips on how to create sensational headlines, and then excitedly hailed taxis and left.
Entering the cinema lobby,
The warm yellow light shone down from above, making my skin, which had been stiff from the cold wind outside, feel slightly warm.
Gu Qing then took out the mask and sunglasses she had just taken off from her pocket and put them back on.
"Junior brother, why are you still wearing it?"
Liu Tianxian asked, puzzled, "The reporters outside have already finished taking pictures, why are you still covering it up?"
"It's fine if the reporters outside see it, but the reporters inside don't know."
Gu Qing casually replied, "I don't want to be stared at by dozens of eyes while watching a movie. Can you handle that?"
"That's right."
Liu Tianxian nodded in sudden realization, turned around and waved to her assistant who was not far away, and also took out a mask from her bag and put it on.
After putting it on,
Her gaze was then drawn to the steaming beverage counter on the right side of the hall.
"Buy some food and drinks? What's the difference between watching a movie and not eating anything? It's like not watching it at all."
"Get four servings of popcorn and milk tea."
"I don't need it."
Gu Qing shook her head. "I'm full."
"Teacher Liu, I don't need it either. I'm on a diet recently."
Zhao Ya quickly waved her hand in response.
"Why are you guys trying to lose weight when you're already so thin? Just eat something."
Liu Yifei tried to drag others down with her, saying, "I'm a female celebrity and I'm not afraid of gaining weight, so what are you afraid of?"
"I don't drink."
Gu Qing shook her head again.
Zhao Ya was nodding vigorously beside her.
"Sister Sisi, shall I buy two?"
The assistant asked impatiently.
Liu Tianxian glanced back at her assistant's slightly rounded chin.
She pursed her lips. "Buy one, you can eat it yourself."
After the ticket was checked,
Several people pushed open the heavy soundproof door of the theater and stepped into the pitch black.
The dragon logo on the screen lit up, its golden emblem shining solemnly in the darkness.
Using the light from the screen, they found their reserved seats in the middle of the left-hand wall.
Gu Qing walked at the front, stepped aside to let Liu Tianxian go in first, and sat down next to her.
Who are these four people?
A reporter in the back row glanced at them and saw several figures wearing masks and sunglasses quietly taking their seats in the darkness.
They were hugging and flirting, which didn't seem like the behavior of celebrities, so I stopped paying attention.
"You sit in the front, and let Xiaoya sit behind me."
Liu Tianxian even arranged for her aggrieved assistant to sit in an empty seat at the front.
She didn't want to have eyes in the back of her head, watching her all the time.
After everything was arranged.
"The movie is about to start."
Liu Tianxian sat down lively in the inner seat against the wall, sinking into the large chair.
She tapped the empty armrest next to her with her fingertips, gesturing for Gu Qing to sit down quickly.
Liu Tianxian leaned forward slightly, her black hair sliding down from her shoulders and hanging above the armrest. Her soft voice carried a hint of excitement, "Junior brother, have you read the original novel?"
"Bleeding Steel" is a science fiction novel, and I especially like this kind of question.
She started sharing the original novel she had been reading with Gu Qing.
simply put,
It's about a PhD named James who, with the support of arms dealers on the Korean Peninsula, researched cyborgs.
During the research, the first cyborg, Andrei, underwent a genetic mutation and went on a killing spree, murdering arms dealers from the Korean Peninsula.
He then took control of his entire organization, which triggered a series of storylines about revenge, family, and identity.
"Isn't this just like Resident Evil?"
After hearing this, Gu Qing instantly understood why the movie had flopped at the box office in its previous life. It's almost 2018, why are they still using this cyborg gene lock thing?
Audiences' tastes have been thoroughly tested by the Resident Evil series.
If you serve up a cold dish with a different name, who would be willing to pay for it?
"Right? I also think it's like Resident Evil!"
Liu Tianxian nodded vigorously in agreement, her black hair flying up and down with her movements.
Gu Qing's nose suddenly felt a little itchy.
At such close range, strands of her thick, dark hair could easily brush against his nose.
The itching sensation spread from the tip of my nose all the way down to the bridge.
Gu Qing suppressed the urge to sneeze, gently brushed aside a few unruly strands of hair with her fingertips, and quickly tucked them behind Liu Tianxian's crystal-clear earlobe.
Immediately,
Gu Qing withdrew her hand and placed it on the armrest, lost in thought.
Speaking of science fiction, he still holds the copyright to "The Three-Body Problem".
Furthermore, there has been no news yet about Guo Fan's "The Wandering Earth".
More than a month ago,
Guo Fan even sent him a message explaining the new filming equipment recently imported from overseas.
He went on and on about how much these devices could improve the industrialization level of domestic films, his tone full of the excitement typical of a science and engineering man.
But after that, there was no further news.
"Will Director Guo's 'The Wandering Earth' run into problems?"
Gu Qing thought about it with concern and decided to take the initiative to ask when she had some free time.
If his butterfly wings ruined this pioneering work of Chinese science fiction, he would be largely to blame.
But little did they know,
While Gu Qing was deep in thought, he didn't notice anything amiss with Liu Tianxian, who had suddenly become quiet beside him.
"What...what is he doing?"
In the pitch-black movie theater, Xiao Liu's big eyes blinked brightly.
The light and shadow on the screen alternated and reflected in her pupils, but she had no idea what was being shown on the screen.
Liu Tianxian froze in her seat, her back ramrod straight, her hands clasped on her knees, and she unconsciously suppressed her breathing.
Just now, the instant Gu Qing's fingertips brushed past the back of her earlobe,
Like an extremely thin and light electric current, it started from his fingertips, passed through the thin skin behind her ear, and spread throughout her body along her spine.
The tingling sensation hadn't completely subsided yet, swirling in the small area behind her ear.
A girl's earlobes are very sensitive.
Not to mention in a crowded theater, surrounded by reporters and movie fans.
Even Liu Tianxian was nervous.
This is different from filming a movie!
"He wouldn't...get physical, would he?"
Thinking of certain strange images,
Liu Tianxian's slender legs and knees unconsciously came together, her hands gently clasped on her knees, her fingertips sinking into her palms.
Her heart pounded, her body tensed, and she remained in that position for several minutes.
But there was no sound at all.
Only Gu Qing was quietly leaning against the seat next to her, intently watching the screen.
Liu Tianxian secretly glanced at the person beside her out of the corner of her eye.
The changing light on the screen shone from the side, casting a soft glow on Gu Qing's beautiful profile.
The curve of the brow bone, the line of the bridge of the nose, and the contour of the lips were all outlined by that layer of changing light, making them look as if they had stepped out of a black and white film.
"What do you mean?"
Liu Tianxian blinked her eyelashes, her heartbeat gradually calming down from its previous rapid pace.
She slowly sank her back into the seat, and her shoulders were no longer so tense.
Am I overthinking it?
But why did she feel even a little bit disappointed?
"What am I even expecting?!"
Liu Tianxian adjusted her scarf.
She tried hard to focus her gaze on the screen, but she just couldn't concentrate.
I don't know if the movie was too bad, or if she was just confused.
Her thoughts often drift to all sorts of random places.
When I saw Gu Qing at the premiere yesterday,
When the two were eating,
When walking the red carpet, Gu Qing raised his arm, inviting her to take his arm.
And... when I asked her if she liked me.
Several strange people even appeared:
Zhao Xiaodao, Liu Shishi, Jing Tian...
Even her best friend, Da Mimi.
My mind is so confused...
With her cool, delicate hand touching her burning, fair forehead, Liu Tianxian couldn't help but murmur a sigh of annoyance.
"The plot is a bit messy, and there are too many characters appearing."
Gu Qing nodded in agreement and echoed in a similarly low voice.
Liu Tianxian: "..."
Are we thinking the same thing?
She looked at Gu Qing's profile as he earnestly analyzed the plot, feeling both annoyed and amused.
Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
The movie "Bleeding Steel" is already nearly halfway through its run on screen.
But the atmosphere in the theater had subtly changed.
Reporters in the back row started yawning.
Most reporters and movie fans were also drowsy, some had already turned off their phones and put them on their laps to browse things.
Gu Qing understood them very well.
If it weren't for the fact that it was Jackie Chan's premiere and he needed to maintain a basic image and manners, he would have already closed his eyes and gone to sleep.
In just half an hour, the film has already exposed too many flaws.
The film attempts to combine elements of science fiction, espionage, and family, but it suffers from serious plot flaws, being both clichéd and lacking in originality.
Gu Qing felt that the biggest failure was the lack of chemistry between the actors in the film.
Because of his age, Jackie Chan's action-comedy films have become purely comedic.
His movements were still happening, but the speed had visibly slowed down.
The lack of continuity in the shots can only be compensated for by rapid cuts and close-ups.
Therefore, he brought in Show Lo, hoping to use his comedic talent to fill the void left by the reduced action scenes.
As a result, Show Lo's comedic style leans more towards nonsensical humor, which is a completely different system from Jackie Chan's comedic style.
Putting these two things in the same frame just doesn't look right.
As for Ouyang Nana
Gu Qing thought of this little girl he had seen on "Up Idol," whose acting skills were beyond question.
The wooden fish-like recitation, the blank expression, and the complete lack of transition and layering between emotional ups and downs.
Those few awkward lines alone made the audience feel uneasy and embarrassed.
The person and the movie are completely disconnected.
Gu Qing rested her elbow on the armrest, her fingertips touching her forehead, feeling that her ability to control her facial expressions was beginning to crumble.
Suddenly, his sleeve was gently tugged.
He turned his head to look inside, his eyes expressing doubt in the darkness.
Liu Tianxian turned sideways and leaned towards him.
She had taken off her mask and sunglasses sometime earlier, leaving only a faint mark on the bridge of her nose.
She waved to him, signaling him to come closer.
Gu Qing hesitated for a moment, then turned slightly to her side.
When she leaned closer, a faint fragrance wafted from her.
Liu Tianxian's lips were almost touching the edge of his mask, her voice extremely low and urgent.
"Junior brother, do you like me?"
"???"
Gu Qing's eyes widened in the darkness, her pupils filled with disbelief.
What exactly are you talking about?
He tilted his head back slightly to get a clear look at her expression.
Gu Qing turned her head and focused on watching the movie again.
"Hey, tell me, you asked me that before, so it's fair that I'm asking you back now, right?"
Liu Tianxian's fingertips quietly slid across the armrest and poked Gu Qing's hand.
She noticed that Gu Qing still didn't respond; he simply took his hands off his knees and put them back in his coat pocket.
"Junior brother? Gu Qing!"
Liu Tianxian gently nudged Gu Qing's leg with her knee.
Are you trying to act like a wooden doll?!
Liu Tianxian gritted her teeth and leaned back in her seat.
"Um?!"
Gu Qing, who was watching Uncle Long and the villain wrestling on the roof of a speeding train on the screen, suddenly felt a sharp pain on the outside of his thigh.
"Snapped!"
Gu Qing's expression changed, and his hand firmly grasped the white jade hand that Liu Tianxian was using to pinch him.
The back of her hands was cool, but her palms were warm.
The hand he was holding was still struggling relentlessly to slip through his fingers and continue committing the crime.
"What are you doing?!"
Gu Qing lowered her head slightly, her lips moving gently behind her mask, her voice kept to a minimum.
"You're not replying to me. I asked you if you like me, give me an answer."
Even with his right hand in her grasp, Liu Tianxian didn't stop. She turned her nails around and gently pinched the soft flesh of his palm, saying fiercely, "Hurry up and confess honestly!"
"I do not like."
Gu Qing sighed, let go of her hand, and gently pushed her hand back to the armrest.
"Junior brother, do you like me or not? I'm not kidding you."
Liu Tianxian paused for a moment, then her fingertips quietly slid across the armrest again. This time she didn't pinch, but just gently poked it.
"Senior sister, I'm not joking."
Gu Qing's lips twitched slightly beneath her mask, feeling it necessary to make things clear.
He probably saw Liu Tianxian more times than he saw Yang Mi.
after all,
I did work with Yang Mi before, and we spent several months together on set.
What about him and Liu Tianxian?
They've never even acted together, and they've never spent more than a day together, so what's the joy in that?
"Junior brother, I'm serious, please stop messing around. Do you like me or not?"
Liu Tianxian felt exhausted. Why couldn't this child tell the truth?
Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she gently turned her body to press close to Gu Qing's shoulder.
The distance between the two people has shrunk from half an arm's length to almost no distance.
She turned her head slightly to the side. "Junior brother, just tell the truth. What's there to be afraid of saying?"
Gu Qing: "..."
What else can I say?!
Am I only allowed to have one answer?
Gu Qingsheng tilted his head to one side with a look of utter despair, turning his face toward the screen, his head almost touching the headrest of the seat.
"Junior brother, are you angry with me?"
Looking at Gu Qing, Xiao Liu suddenly felt that he had figured out the key to the problem.
She went through her reasoning in her mind from beginning to end.
On the red carpet, Gu Qing asked her, "Senior sister, do you like me?"
That was a test of her attitude.
But she refused without hesitation.
Although afterwards,
Gu Qing laughed nonchalantly, saying that she had to focus on her career and couldn't date.
But this is clearly using a smile to cover up her sadness!
"Are all little boys like this? They sulk when they get rejected after confessing their feelings?"
Liu Tianxian was very distressed, feeling that she had hurt the self-esteem of a young boy.
As the older sister, shouldn't she take the initiative?
"Junior brother, don't be angry. I was just joking with you. I actually like you quite a bit."
Liu Tianxian stopped scratching and clawing, and instead gently patted Gu Qing's leg with her hand, her voice softening.
"Boom—"
The explosions in the movie suddenly erupted, and the surrounding surround sound was like a giant beast being awakened.
The seats in the entire theater were trembling slightly, startling the drowsy audience awake.
Gu Qing's eardrums were also violently struck by the sound wave.
"what?"
He turned his head and looked at Liu Tianxian blankly.
"Hehehe, don't be so happy."
Even through the mask, Liu Tianxian could see Gu Qing's slightly open mouth and wide-open eyes.
Her eyebrows arched slightly, a hint of shyness in her eyes, and she took the initiative to reach out her delicate hand and hold Gu Qing's hand in the darkness where no one could see her.
Her hands were cool, while the palm I held was warm and dry. I shook it gently and excitedly.
"Senior sister, what are you doing?"
Gu Qing's hand was suddenly grasped, leaving her completely bewildered.
Just a moment ago they were pinching each other's thighs, how come they're holding hands now?
He glanced down at their hands clasped together below the armrest, then looked up at her, completely bewildered.
"Can't I hold it for a while?"
As Gu Qing approached, Liu Tianxian gave a soft snort, gently pressing her fair forehead against his temple, pushing his head away from her.
"Fine, fine, do whatever you want."
Gu Qing rubbed her forehead and sat back down.
He admitted defeat; he was afraid.
He was genuinely afraid that after he pulled his hand back, his senior sister Liu, who refused to accept the truth, might do something in the movie theater.
"You wish—I'm not doing it."
Liu Tianxian gave him a reproachful look, her jade-like earlobes glowing pink in the changing light and shadow of the screen, her pearly teeth gently biting her lower lip, her heart in turmoil.
"It's better not to do it."
Upon hearing this,
Gu Qing silently breathed a sigh of relief.
Let's just hold hands, at least it won't hurt us.
