Chapter 266: Chapter 365: She pulled him into her chest
In the evening, they had to shoot the scene where Xie Tianyu’s character sacrifices himself to save the female lead, Peerless.
Under the moonlight, his dying wish was to have Peerless kiss him once.
According to the script, Peerless was supposed to kiss the corner of his lips.
Even though it wasn’t a very intense kissing scene, Xie Tianyu was still extremely nervous.
He brushed his teeth over and over and chewed mint-flavored gum.
Ming Yao, on the other hand, didn’t take the kiss scene to heart, since actors should maintain a certain level of professionalism.
Beneath the pale moonlight, Xie Tianyu took two arrows and fell to the ground.
Ming Yao stepped forward to hold him, tears welling up in her beautiful eyes, her voice trembling as she spoke, “Don’t die… I will definitely find a way to save you…”
Lying in Ming Yao’s arms, Xie Tianyu’s face was pale and his breathing rapid, “Sister Peerless, I’ve had a secret crush on you for many years, can… can you kiss me?”
At this time, Peerless also had certain feelings for Xie Tianyu’s character.
Her tears fell on his face.
She slowly lowered her head, moving closer to his handsome face.
However, just then, a tall and imposing figure walked behind the camera.

Seeing the two intimately embraced and Ming Yao about to actively kiss Xie Tianyu, his expression turned as frosty as cold ice.
He raised his long palm and directly turned off the camera’s power button.
Director Jih, who had been moved by the emotion of the two actors, felt that they, as newcomers, were performing touchingly, when suddenly the screen went black.
He looked confused.
Turning his head, he was surprised to see the man behind him.
“Fourth Master, what brings you here?”
Gu Siting’s expression was dark, “Why is there a kissing scene in the script?”
Director Jih, looking at Gu Siting’s dark face, felt his scalp tingle, “Fourth Master, please don’t misunderstand, it’s just a very aesthetic touching kiss.”
“Change it,” he spat out coldly.
Director Jih, “…”
“Hugging, kissing, bed scenes, any scenes with too much physical intimacy, all of them, change it!”
His voice was deep and brooked no argument.
Director Jih’s mouth twitched.
As an investor, Fourth Master had invested in many dramas and had never interfered with his screenplays before.
But now—
Director Jih glanced at Ming Yao and spoke in a lowered voice, “Fourth Master, isn’t your possessiveness a bit too strong?”
Without those scenes, how was he supposed to develop the emotional part of the drama?
Gu Siting’s handsome facial features tensed, “So many dramas don’t have these scenes and still achieve high box office. If you can’t do it, I’ll find someone else to shoot it!”
Knowing Gu Siting’s irrefutable nature, Director Jih felt a headache coming on and said, “Fine, fine, fine, we won’t shoot tonight, I’ll have the screenwriter change the script overnight!”
Ming Yao was immersed in the character’s emotions, thinking she would be able to kiss Xie Tianyu’s lips with professionalism.
But involuntarily, the image of a face, handsome as if carved from stone, flashed in her mind.
Knowing his domineering and arrogant nature, she wondered what he would look like if he knew she had performed a kissing scene.
He would surely be super annoyed, right?
Thinking about it, looking at Xie Tianyu’s puppy-like face, she suddenly couldn’t bring herself to kiss him.
Dammit, she really had been deeply affected by Tyrant Gu!
At the very moment she needed to demonstrate professionalism in acting, she choked up.
Just then, Director Jih also called out “cut.”
Ming Yao let go of Xie Tianyu and stood up, walking towards Director Jih, “Sorry Director Jih, I need to think through this scene a bit more, adjust my emotions!”
Director Jih waved his hand, “No worries, we are not shooting tonight. Everyone go back and rest early.”
Not knowing if it was just her feeling, Ming Yao distinctly sensed that Director Jih seemed somewhat dejected.
Zhong Ling followed Ming Yao back to the makeup room and hurried after her. “Sister Yao, I have something to tell you…”
Ming Yao turned her head to look at Zhong Ling, “Let’s talk later, my clothes are wet, and it’s uncomfortable to wear them.”
“Fourth Master, he…” Zhong Ling hadn’t finished her sentence when Ming Yao entered the makeup room.
She was the lead actress; Director Jih had prepared a separate room and makeup room just for her.
Ming Yao unfastened the belt of her long dress and was about to take it off when she suddenly heard a faint sound.
Ming Yao paused in the act of undoing her belt.
She turned around and saw a tall and stern silhouette standing in the corner, with slightly bent legs, the fingers toying with a lighter.
The blue flame flickered to life, casting a light on the man’s face, handsome and perfect as if sculpted.
Harsh and incisive.
Under the dim light, the man stood tall and straight, the flame from the lighter in his fingertips flickering on and off.
Ming Yao saw Gu Siting suddenly appearing here, and surprise flickered in her eyes.
When did he arrive?
Remembering his recent coldness and the oil paintings in the room on the third floor, Ming Yao was shocked but quickly calmed herself down.
She didn’t want to talk to him now.
Because once she did, she didn’t know what sort of harsh words she might say!
Ming Yao re-tied her belt and turned to leave.
But just as her fingertips touched the doorknob, her wrist was caught by a large hand.
The man pulled with strength, drawing Ming Yao into his chest.
She bumped her nose against his firm chest, causing her to sharply inhale from the pain.
Before she could relieve the pain in her nose, the next second, he spun her around.
Their positions reversed, and she was pressed against the door frame by him.
Outside the door, the voices of other actors talking could still be faintly heard.
Ming Yao’s lower back was pressed against the cold doorknob, as she looked with cold eyes at the man’s handsome face so close to her.
Her runaway heartbeat slowly returned to calm.
“Gu Siting, let go of me!”
Gu Siting didn’t let go of her.
But he clearly sensed her displeased mood.
His large palm wrapped around her slender waist, and he was surprised to discover that her waist seemed even slimmer than before.
Had she not been eating properly these past few days?
Many actors, for the sake of looking good on camera, would become as thin as telephone poles.
He frowned slightly, and in a deep voice, he said, “Did you see the trending topic this morning?”
He was very close to her, his hot and clear masculine scent filling her senses.
It was a familiar scent she liked.
But now, she just wanted to get away.
Before she could get away, though, there were things that needed to be made clear.
After taking a deep breath, she began, “Do you know why I don’t want to bother with you? First, you’ve been cold to me for no reason after the medical competition, second, you said that your White Moonlight isn’t Shi Ying, but why do you visit her grave every year, without fail? And that forbidden room on the third floor, why is it full of her oil paintings?”
Ming Yao said everything in one breath, and she could palpably feel the air around them growing colder.
A violent aura erupted from the man.
Ming Yao knew it was wrong to pry into his privacy, but since she had already done it, there was nothing to hide.
She pursed her red lips, and with clear and cold eyes, she said, “Do you know what I despise the most? Hypocrites, who act one way to your face and another behind your back, who treat me like a fool!”
With that, she pushed hard against his chest, and the man, who had seemed as immovable as a mountain, was suddenly pushed away!
