269 The Ice Cold Devil Who Left Angrily (1/2)

Under the bridge, with lanterns that lit up the surroundings, the wind blew steadily as a young girl kissed a stunned young boy, separated by a mask...

This scene was unexpectedly more beautiful and moving than a direct kiss…

”Cut! Good!” Guo Qisheng came to his senses and called the scene to a stop.

”Not bad, Ning Xi, the way you dealt with this by hiding half of your face actually resulted in a better effect!” Guo Qisheng complimented, while the other crew members also nodded their heads in agreement.

”Director, as long as you’re satisfied, all’s good,” said Ning Xi, forcing herself to smile. Dang you! I was just acting out a romantic kiss scene, not a crime scene, yet I had to act till I was physically and mentally exhausted!

Ning Xi was taken aback by that sight, hurriedly turning around to leave.

”Sister Xi, where are you going?”

”The toilet!”

Then, this morning he saw the tabloid news about the both of you playing video games all night, so he immediately postponed a meeting and came here to inspect!”

[Did he let you know what he’s thinking about doing, or if he has any plans?] Ning Xi quickly asked, since she knew that the best strategy to win was to know her enemy!
