The filming of was in full swing, and Qin Miaomiao arrived on set, glancing at the scene with a slightly dazed expression, looking somewhat nonchalant.
Jiaojiao, who had just completed a gunfight scene, had splatters of "blood" on her white shirt and her sharp short hair. This did nothing to diminish her handsomeness.
As she walked over, she wanted to hug Miao Miao but hesitated due to the "blood" made from tomato sauce on her body. Instead, she looked at her pitifully:
"Miao Miao, I’m so pitiful. Just look at my delicate skin—it’s all bruised."
"Here, here, take a look."
Saying this, she rolled up her sleeve. Her skin was fair, but there were patches of bruising. Shooting action scenes inevitably meant getting injured.
Qin Miaomiao immediately called Little Sixth to get some red flower oil to treat her wounds and rubbed it gently.
Frowning, she said, "Why are you hurt ? Maybe you should use a stunt double instead."
Jiaojiao grinned: "No need. I’m just a rookie and barely got the chance to play the leading lady. People are already gossiping behind my back, saying I got here through shady dealings—they’re super jealous. If I use a stunt double, their spit alone could drown me. Besides, Emperor Rong, such a big-name star, doesn’t even use a stunt double."
Following her gaze, Qin Miaomiao looked at Rong Lan, who was conversing with the director.
They say men are at their most attractive when they’re focused, and Rong Lan’s face was indeed the kind that could bring people to their knees. Across the entire entertainment world, probably no one could rival him—especially with his acting skills!
So, such a figure was practically revered as a deity.
Looking at him, Qin Miaomiao couldn’t help but think of Lu Qing. His nose was a bit straighter, his features more chiseled, his eyebrows thicker, and he was taller than Rong Lan. Even his aura felt sturdier. From a side profile? Her husband was still better-looking.
She shook her head, trying to snap out of her thoughts. What’s wrong with her?
Why did everyone make her think of him? Last night, for some baffling reason, she had confessed her feelings to him and ended up getting herself into trouble. According to Lu Qing, he had used his body to show her just how much he adored her.
Her waist was still sore even now!
"What are you grinning about? Your expression is so... suggestive."
Jiaojiao’s sudden remark jolted Miao Miao out of her trance, leaving her slightly flustered:
"Cough, cough, I wasn’t thinking about anything."
"Not thinking about anything? Your face is blushing like crazy. Who are you trying to fool? Were you thinking about your man? Speaking of which, I’ve noticed that Young Master Lu has been treating you pretty well lately. But you should still stay alert—who knows if this is just a phase? If he starts being awful to you later, just divorce him and take half of his assets!"
"Or better yet, let me find a few handsome guys for you and give him a green hat!"
Qin Miaomiao’s lips twitched. Honestly, if Lu Qing heard this, he’d probably lose his mind and kill her!
Not far off, Little Sixth glanced at Jiaojiao and scoffed. Saying such things? Her guts were out of this world.
Remembering Lu Qing’s strict orders—to ensure this girl stays away from the Young Madam—it made perfect sense. Always inciting her to flirt with other guys and cuckold Young Master Lu? She must be tired of living.
Qin Miaomiao couldn’t help but laugh: "Jiaojiao, don’t spout nonsense. My husband and I are doing great."
"Oh, calling him husband now, huh? Looks like he’s drugged you with some love potion. Anyway, all men are the same scummy breed. If he messes with you again, tell me—we can scheme something against him."
Little Sixth shot Jiaojiao an increasingly bizarre look, fully committed to supporting Young Master Lu’s mission! The Young Madam really needed to keep her distance from this tomboy woman who’s even cooler than most men!
"What are you discussing over here? Having so much fun?"
Rong Lan walked over. In the film, he played the big villain—a portrayal that was bleak and borderline psychotic. Yet, he remained breathtakingly handsome!
Little Sixth gave him a very wary glance. Strong danger alert! Young Master Lu’s rival was closing in—must stay extra cautious!
