In a photography studio in the Magic City...
Su Qianmo and Gu Chenan sat on chairs behind the camera, waiting for Liu Mingrui to change clothes.
Meanwhile, the director, wearing a short-sleeved shirt, shorts, and flip-flops, with a prominent belly, kept his gaze fixed on the dressing room nearby.
Just moments ago, when Liu Mingrui arrived at the studio, she had left him speechless.
The reason was simple - Liu Mingrui's looks and figure were the most stunning he had ever seen in a female model!
Yet he had never even heard of such a beautiful model before. It was as if this Liu Mingrui had suddenly appeared in the Magic City out of nowhere!
"Liu Mingrui..." the director repeated her name, his eyes glued even more intently to the dressing room door.
At that moment, the dressing room door opened.
Liu Mingrui's long legs stepped out. She was wearing a light-colored dress, her face adorned with natural, elegant makeup. Her appearance instantly stunned all the crew members.
"She's so beautiful!"
"I've never heard of this model before. Is she new to the industry?"
"She must be, but one thing's for sure - her arrival is going to make waves in the Magic City modeling scene!"
The whispers of the crew reached Gu Chenan and Su Qianmo's ears.
"Mingrui looks quite suitable in that outfit. She looks pure yet alluring, like a ripe peach," Gu Chenan remarked with a smile.
Su Qianmo nodded, "I never thought Mingrui would actually agree to this. I thought someone with her personality would never agree to be a model."
She glanced at Gu Chenan, "She initially refused everything, right? How did you convince her after just one afternoon out? What method did you use?"
"Ah, haha," Gu Chenan laughed awkwardly. "What method could I use? I just persuaded her with my silver tongue."
"Hmm?" Su Qianmo felt something was off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
In fact, what Gu Chenan said wasn't entirely untrue. He did use his "silver tongue" to persuade Liu Mingrui.
To be honest, the hotel bed was quite soft.
Soon, the photoshoot began.
The on-site director was in full charge of this shoot. Originally, they only needed to capture Liu Mingrui's exquisitely sculpted face for this advertisement. However, upon seeing Liu Mingrui's impressive figure, the director decisively decided to include her full body in the shot.
Caiying didn't have a large cash flow, so the advertisement was set to be within thirty seconds. However, this thirty-second ad took a full two to three hours to shoot.
They constantly changed camera positions and adjusted shooting angles.
But Liu Mingrui's performance in front of the camera greatly satisfied the director. From start to finish, the director never once said that Liu Mingrui needed to improve anything; instead, he kept nodding in approval.
Liu Mingrui's highly professional performance even surprised Gu Chenan.
If he didn't know Liu Mingrui's background, he might have thought she was already in the entertainment industry.
Finally, with the director's call of "Cut!", the shoot came to an end.
"Thank you all for your hard work," the director stood up and bowed to everyone. Then, he took out his business card from his shirt pocket and approached Liu Mingrui, who was about to enter the dressing room to change.
"Hello, Miss Liu. I find your image and aura very much to my liking. This is my business card. If you're interested in working with me, feel free to contact me anytime."
Seeing the director's business card offered with both hands, Liu Mingrui was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved her hands.
"No, no, I'm not a professional model. I'm just here to help a friend."
"Huh?" The director was taken aback.
Not a professional model? How could someone who wasn't a professional be so skilled?
"Is this your first time shooting an advertisement?" the director inquired.
"To be precise, it's my first time in front of a camera," Liu Mingrui added.
Hearing this, the director's eyes lit up with amazement.
Her first time in front of a camera, yet she was so confident, elegant, and natural?
Add to that her stunning figure and breathtaking beauty!
This was truly a gift from heaven!
The director paused, then stood a bit straighter and said, "Miss Liu, I'm very interested in working with you. If possible, I'd like to sign a long-term contract with you. We can discuss the details further!"
"That won't be necessary," Liu Mingrui was about to say more when Gu Chenan walked over.
Hearing Gu Chenan address Liu Mingrui so intimately, the director immediately turned to him, "Hello, this Miss Liu meets all the conditions of a professional model. If possible, I'd like her to sign a long-term contract with our company."
Hearing this, Gu Chenan raised an eyebrow, putting on a look of amusement.
"Mingrui, what do you think?" Gu Chenan asked with a smile.
Liu Mingrui frowned, looking troubled.
To be honest, she had quite enjoyed the state she was in while shooting the advertisement. She had originally thought she couldn't do it at all, but unexpectedly found it came naturally to her.
The problem was, Gu Chenan had told her she was currently undocumented. How could an undocumented person sign a contract with a company?
"Chenan, can I sign?" Liu Mingrui asked.
This question wasn't about letting Gu Chenan make the decision for her, but rather to remind him about her identity issue.
Gu Chenan immediately caught on and said, "I'm sorry, director. Miss Liu is not in a position to sign contracts with any company at the moment. Perhaps we can discuss this another time."
Gu Chenan had only meant this as an excuse, but to the director's ears, it meant something else entirely.
Liu Mingrui had first asked Gu Chenan if she could sign, and then Gu Chenan said she couldn't sign with any company at the moment. What did this imply?
It implied that Gu Chenan was Liu Mingrui's agent!
Realizing this, the director suddenly held Gu Chenan in high regard.
To discover such a talented new model, what keen insight that must have taken!
"Sir, may I ask your surname?" the director inquired.
"Me? My surname is Gu," Gu Chenan replied truthfully.
"Mr. Gu, it's a pleasure to meet you. This is my business card. If you're interested in collaborating with our company, please feel free to contact me anytime," the director respectfully offered his card with both hands.
Taking the card, Gu Chenan looked somewhat confused.
What did this mean?
Did they want him to be a model now?
Come to think of it, were his physique and appearance really that impressive?
...
Soon after, Liu Mingrui changed back into her clothes and left the dressing room.
"Do you want to go?" Gu Chenan, leaning against the wall outside the dressing room, asked as soon as she came out.
"Go where?" Liu Mingrui didn't understand at first.
Gu Chenan took out the business card and said, "To become a professional model."
Liu Mingrui rolled her eyes disdainfully, "Me, the young miss of the Liu family, becoming a model? Please, that's impossible no matter how you look at it."
As she said this, Liu Mingrui had already started walking away. But after a few steps, she suddenly turned back, "If it's about being a female celebrity, I might consider it."

d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!

saw a female celebrity tied up and stuffed in the trunk! Little did he know, countless cameras were aimed at him at this moment - this was a new type of reality show. The first randomly selected passerby was caught in less than an hour. But when Xu Moru was selected, things started to take an unexpected turn. "Damn, this isn't how the script goes. This Xu Moru is too bold, he's not following the rules at all." "Crap, is this guy taking it seriously?" "The female celebrity has been scared to tears!"

esick Sect? Well, at least it's considered a respectable orthodox sect. Wait a minute— What kind of vibe are you all giving off? Shouldn’t this be a love-struck, romance-obsessed sect? Why does everyone here sound more like demonic cultivators? "Master, today he’s getting married. This disciple wishes to descend the mountain and crash the wedding, then toy with him to death right in front of his wife..." "Elder, I only got into your sect through connections, so why won’t you teach me anything?" "Because I also became an elder through connections." Thankfully, Su Ji was just an outer sect labor disciple. Surely, nothing too crazy would— "Junior Brother, you’ve broken through to Qi Refining. Once you sever your useless spiritual root, you can officially become an outer sect disciple." "The Great Dao is merciless. Don’t let a worthless spiritual root waste your essence and spirit, hindering your cultivation." Is this really the Lovesick Sect? ... Three years later, Su Ji sat in the seat of the Lovesick Sect’s sect master, sighing with emotion. His rise to this position all started when his junior sister adamantly insisted on preserving his "spiritual root." "Mmm... Senior Brother, what’s our relationship now?" "Stop talking. Keep going." "By the way, that newly promoted top-tier sect—didn’t they come to buy our Love Beans?" "One top-grade spirit stone per Love Bean—is that really so expensive?" "I suspect they’ve eaten too many Love Beans." "Now they’re lovesick." Well, this really is the Lovesick Sect after all.
