Chapter 248 First On-Screen Kiss
……

……

After dinner, filming began.
Time flies when you're on set; half a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

Gu Qing and Liu Shishi finally shared the scene from the script where they secretly pledged their love with a kiss.

Screenwriter Zhang Wei was inspired after seeing the elegant and refined, classically charming appearances of Gu Qing and Liu Shishi.

They excitedly added a lot of "explicit" scenes, all in pursuit of that irresistible sense of "debauchery".

Not only does it retain the forced love after Zhu Qiyu's ascension to the throne and subsequent dark turn, but it also adds many sweet and affectionate interactions in the early and middle stages.

at the moment,

The scene to be filmed is this secret kiss, a moment of unspoken affection and a promise of lifelong commitment.

The plot is set against the backdrop of a power struggle between Emperor Zhu Qizhen and the Empress Dowager. Emperor Zhu Qizhen feigns rebellion and, out of spite, appoints Yunxian's father as a fourth-rank general.

Yunxian's father was ridiculed by his colleagues and felt extremely ashamed and indignant. Fearing that his daughter would be favored by the emperor, he decided to marry her off as soon as possible.

So after returning home
She hastily hung the "red scarf" for the marriage proposal on the embroidered tower.

By a twist of fate, the red scarf was spotted by Zhu Qiyu, played by Gu Qing.
He mistakenly thought this was a sign that Yunxian had agreed to the marriage.

Unable to contain his joy, he sneaked into the Hang residence late at night to secretly meet with Yunxian.

The two poured out their hearts to each other, and when their feelings were at their peak, a kiss sealed their love.

After reading today's script, Gu Qingzao stopped worrying about the logic. Since he had already accepted the role, he would just do his best to film it.

What made him hesitate was that today's filming seemed to be his 'first on-screen kiss'?

Previously, Gulnazar's staged kiss and Ma Sichun's repeated NGs were seen as attempts to steal the kiss, but in the end, one was staged and the other was actually a kiss on the cheek.

Today, however, we are truly interdependent.

"younger brother."

A clear, slightly teasing voice rang out, and Liu Shishi strode over, her fingertips slightly cool.
Gently pinching Gu Qing's cheek, "I've seen you holding the script and pondering it all afternoon. You know there's going to be a kissing scene, are you shy?"

She deliberately lowered her voice, feigning a slightly roguish tone, "Don't worry, I know this is your first on-screen kiss, I promise... I'll be very gentle."

In the entertainment industry, "first on-screen kiss" is a hot topic.

Especially for a top idol like Gu Qing, he is of paramount importance to fans.

The production team was naturally happy to use this for marketing, and the fan base was bound to be stirred up.

Liu Shishi is quite frank about this, even though it has been five years since "Scarlet Heart" became a huge hit and she hasn't had many breakout works in recent years.

However, her public image and reputation have always been among the best of the "Four Little Actresses".

Even though she was briefly overshadowed in terms of popularity by Yang Ying, who recently became a sensation through a popular national variety show, her own status remains stable.

After the production team released news about the kissing scene, she also quietly paid attention to the online sentiment.

Apart from a small group of "pure love" fans who are dissatisfied with everyone, most of Gu Qing's fans actually approve of her and feel that she "deserves" her.

This left Liu Shishi feeling strangely flattered.

What made her even more speechless was that...
Her group of "little lion" fans actually took the news that she and Gu Qing filmed a kissing scene and went to Yang Ying's comment section to "go all out" and play the role of "cuckolds" in person:

"Your favorite little brother is in my Shishi's arms tonight."

"The number one CP in the Chinese entertainment industry? Didn't our Lion Lions take the lead? Aren't you angry?"

Even more extreme, some people directly messaged her: "Please make her do a few more takes! Kiss her hard! She has to avenge us!"

Liu Shishi wanted to cover her face in embarrassment. Was this script of jealousy and rivalry reversed? She was a woman, after all!
However, there are clues to why the fans ship her and Gu Qing as a couple.

From Gu Qing's fleeting cameo as the young master of the Yan family in "Brotherhood of Blades," to their stunning cosplay at anime conventions, and his repeated interventions to help her out in media interviews—this series of interactions...

It was indeed pleasing to the eye for some fans.

God knows how scared her fans were when rumors circulated after "Scarlet Heart" that she had fallen in love at first sight with a "man" twenty years her senior.

It's like watching your own fresh, plump cabbage being...
Now that I've seen such a handsome and eligible bachelor, shouldn't I hurry up and try to match them up?
Do you have a favorite fruit?

Gu Qing gently slapped away the jade-like hand that was still pinching her cheek, and looked up to ask.

"Hmm? I like blueberries."

Liu Shishi answered subconsciously, then realized what she meant and a bright, slightly mischievous smile instantly bloomed on her face, a barely perceptible blush rising on her cheeks.

She reached out and gently tapped Gu Qingqing's nose with her finger.

"You know quite a lot~ I was actually thinking of chewing a scallion."

"onion?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Qing pretended to turn her head and shouted, "Sister Xiaoya, go buy a head of garlic, let's hurt each other!"

"No, no, no, I was just joking."

Liu Shishi smiled and quickly grabbed his raised arm, magically pulling two pieces of chewing gum from her pocket and waving them in front of him. "See, I was ready a long time ago."

Soon, the night spread as dark as ink.

The crew meticulously arranged the outdoor lighting of the boudoir scene, creating a private and enchanting atmosphere.

Gu Qing took the jar of fruit from Zhao Ya, opened it, paused for a moment among the dazzling colors, picked out a deep blueberry and put it in her mouth.

But at this time,
Before her, a slender, fair hand reached out, palm facing upwards. Gu Qing looked up and met Liu Shishi's smiling eyes. Liu Shishi raised her eyebrows slightly, her expression carrying a silent urging.

Gu Qing lowered her eyes, her fingertips fiddling with the candy in the box for a moment, and finally chose a translucent lemon-flavored one, gently placing it in her warm palm.

After the area was cleared, leaving only the necessary director, photographer, and lighting crew, the onlookers dispersed with regretful sighs.

Filming has officially begun.

With a soft thud, Gu Qing, playing Zhu Qiyu, nimbly and gracefully scaled the courtyard wall, landing lightly with youthful eagerness and excitement.

He quickly arrived at Yunxian's bedroom window and gave the agreed-upon signal.

inside the house,

Liu Shishi, who plays Yunxian, is sitting alone by the candle, her hands supporting her chin, a hint of sorrow in her eyes, deeply worried about her father's hasty marriage proposal.

Suddenly, she heard a familiar coded signal. She was stunned in disbelief at first, then overwhelmed with joy. She hurriedly got up and opened the door.

outside the door,

The moonlight outlined the tall and handsome figure of the young man, who was none other than Zhu Qiyu, the Prince of Cheng, whom she had been longing for.

"Qi Yu! What brings you here?"

She lowered her voice, nervously looked around, and after confirming that no one was there, she mustered her courage and pulled the person into her boudoir.

"Yunxian, I saw the red scarf outside the door. You've agreed to marry me?!"

Gu Qing was overjoyed and grabbed Liu Shishi's shoulder.

"Qi Yu, about the Red Scarf..."

Liu Shishi instinctively wanted to explain the truth. However, before she could speak, a strong sour taste came from the tip of her tongue, and the aftertaste of the lemon candy spread between her lips and teeth.

As she spoke, she felt her mouth watering and secretly complained, "You brat, why give me lemons of all things? Are you trying to kill me with sourness?"

"Yunxian, don't worry!"

Gu Qing looked at Liu Shishi, who had turned her head to the side, and, suppressing his confusion, continued to express his deep and sorrowful feelings: "I have already had someone secretly mediate this matter, and I will definitely not put you in a difficult position. I just want to ask you, was choosing me truly your only option?"

He cupped her face in his hands, forcing her to look at him, his eyes filled with cautious inquiry and a hint of sadness.

"Qi Yu!"

Liu Shishi pressed down on his hand that was cupping her cheek, feeling the warmth of his palm. She lowered her head slightly, her long eyelashes trembling like butterfly wings, her voice soft yet clear, "From the moment you saved me on horseback, my heart has never wavered."

She took a deep breath, mustered her courage, and looked him straight in the eye. "I dare not agree to your request hastily, but I'm afraid my reputation will tarnish yours, and even more afraid... that you'll regret it in the future..."

By the end, her voice was barely audible, carrying the trepidation typical of a young woman.

"Yunxian, in this life and the next, I will never betray you!"

After Gu Qing finished reciting the scumbag's quote, their eyes met, and the candlelight flickered in their eyes, reflecting the deep affection between them.

Gu Qing slowly lowered her head, and Liu Shishi's long eyelashes trembled slightly.
The warm aroma carries a subtle fragrance of blueberries and lemon, which intertwine and entwine in a strange way.

at last,

Soft, slightly cool lips met.

With a sweet, fructose-like texture, Gu Qing clearly felt a warm, moist sensation on her lips.

Two seconds later,

To prevent the scene from becoming a stalemate,

Liu Shishi wrapped her jade-like arms around his neck and deepened the kiss.

The two stumbled and fell onto the soft boudoir bed. The candlelight flickered, casting shadows on the gauze curtains.

Lips and teeth intertwined, breaths mingling.

Gu Qing responded by recalling the "techniques" that Teacher Zhao had once shared.

I do not know how long it has been,

Gu Qing buried his head in Liu Shishi's swan-like neck.

Oh no... I'm covered by a thin veil.

"Crack——!"

Behind the monitor, Director Li smiled slightly before calling a halt, "The first take went well! The emotions were spot on! Let's take a break, we'll shoot the second take later."

Liu Shishi's pretty face was still flushed, and she had her arms wrapped around Gu Qing.

She felt the hot breath and slight trembling on her neck, and a sly smile curved her lips.

Liu Shishi turned her head, her soft lips lightly pecking Gu Qing's earlobe, her warm breath carrying an ambiguous dampness as it brushed against his earlobe.

In a soft, whispered laugh, only the two of them could hear:

"Your Highness Prince Cheng, shall we... practice a few more times?"
