I am a historical film director in the entertainment industry.

Zeng Li, however, is different. She never relies on filters to cover up imperfections, nor does she try to achieve any age-defying miracles. Instead, she is open, honest, and elegant to the core, taking the word "mature" to a new level.

The camera cuts to her face, revealing clean lines, a captivating aura, expressive eyes, and alluring figure. Isn't she the epitome of the "ideal wife" that countless people dream of?

It's no exaggeration to say that Zeng Li is the pinnacle of "mature wife charm".

She possesses the kind of aura that "everyone has around her"—elegant, composed, emotionally rich, and knowing how to behave appropriately. That charm, refined by time, can't be captured by any filter.

Her performance is like a fine wine, the more you savor it, the more flavorful it becomes. It's not greasy or pretentious, nor is it affected or pretentious. Instead, it's a genuine "life-like" performance, making you feel like she's the gentle older sister you pass by, someone you can't help but glance at a few more times.

Looking at Zeng Li's appearance, she is tall and slender with striking features, and her smile has a healing quality that evokes a sense of tranquility and peace.

Standing next to those female stars who desperately pursue a youthful image, Zeng Li is like a beam of light in the crowd, quietly dazzling.

Interestingly, Zeng Li's "wifely" image wasn't something she cultivated through her roles. Her life is equally low-key, with almost no scandals, and she rarely engages in self-promotion. In interviews, she speaks with great tact and discretion.

Unlike some female stars who can't survive without the entertainment industry, she is in a state of "being able to leave at any time and still remain noble".

She is a walking "second spring," translating the term "mature woman" from "midlife crisis" into "the second highlight of life."

To put it simply, Zeng Li is the kind of person who stands out in a crowd without trying to steal the spotlight, yet is the most eye-catching.

She is the textbook of "wifely charm" and a living example of "mature woman aesthetics".

She made people understand that a woman's beauty has nothing to do with age, but with her story and her confidence.

She tells you in her own way that every stage of life is worth loving, and every state of being can be lived beautifully.

Although Cheng Sheng was not a traitor like Cao Cao, he shared the same hobby as Cao Cao: he liked mature older women.

Zeng Li was to his liking.

Moreover, Cheng Sheng believed Zeng Li when she said she wouldn't get married.

Even when Zeng Li said she was against marriage, Cheng Sheng believed her.

Because Zeng Li will be almost fifty years old in the future and still single.

Therefore, this is also why Cheng Sheng respects her; he doesn't force her to get married.

Hearing Cheng Sheng's words, Zeng Li was very happy and snuggled closer to him.

Cheng Sheng wrapped his arms around her waist and lowered his head to bite her luscious red lips.

Zeng Li felt a burning heat and shyly pushed him away, saying, "Cheng Sheng, get up quickly."

Last night, her desires were satisfied, and this morning she indulged herself once, which was enough. She couldn't bear to be hurt again.

Cheng Sheng let Zeng Li go, sat up slightly, hugged Zeng Li, and kept playing with her collarbone: "From now on, we'll greet each other normally in public, but in private we'll be a couple, just like last night."

Zeng Li drew circles on Cheng Sheng's chest and said coquettishly, "Okay, but you can't act like a bull anymore, or I'll get angry."

"Ah."

After their personal matters were settled, the two lay on the warm bed and started talking about business.

Zeng Li put her arm around Cheng Sheng and asked, "Where's your new movie script? Let me see it."

Upon hearing this, Cheng Sheng released Zeng Li, got out of bed, went to the study to retrieve the script, and gave it to Zeng Li.

Cheng Sheng got back into bed and held Zeng Li's warm body. Zeng Li took the script and turned the pages one by one, the only sound the rustling of the pages. She was completely absorbed in the story, and even when Cheng Sheng moved his hands on her body, she only gently pushed them away.

More than half an hour later, Zeng Li gently closed the script: "This story is good, very touching. Are you aiming for an award?"

"So, do you think you can play the female lead well?"

Zeng Li raised her lips slightly and said, "You don't believe in my acting skills?"

“Sister Li, this isn’t about acting skills; it’s about disfiguring performances. That’s why I’m sending you to a remote village to experience rural life, since the female lead comes from the countryside.”

“I can do it,” Zeng Li said through gritted teeth.

It's just living in the countryside of Xijiang for a month!
She's fine.

Seeing Zeng Li's determined expression, he reached out and put his arm around her: "If you want to act, you have to listen to me."

"Ah."

Cheng Sheng continued, "You'll have to farm, do manual labor, and herd cattle. You'll have to learn the lifestyle of rural women. After filming this movie, you might suffer psychological trauma!"

He laid out the difficulties, wanting Zeng Li to make the decision herself.

After hearing this, Zeng Li, though she loved beauty, did not want to be just a pretty face. Without fear, she nodded and said, "I can do it. I'll go to Xijiang Village tomorrow."

After watching the movie "Ten Red Army Soldiers Sent Off," she really liked the character and was willing to give everything for it.

Cheng Sheng smiled helplessly, not expecting Zeng Li to have such an artistic side.

Once you get to the countryside, I hope you won't give up!
Having never lived in the countryside, I don't know the hardships of rural life, especially in remote villages.

"Sister Li, lie down," Cheng Sheng said, giving Zeng Li a hard slap.

"What do you want me to do?" Zeng Li asked, confused.

"This is an unspoken rule. Don't you understand this? If a female celebrity wants a role, doesn't she know how to please the director?"

"Cheng Sheng, you..."

Zeng Li rolled her eyes, but she still turned over and lay down honestly, showing off her beautiful S-curve.

Cheng Sheng admired the beautiful scenery.

No wonder so many directors like this approach; there's a reason behind it.

He lowered his head and bit his luscious red lips; a delicate fragrance entered his heart through his nostrils…

An hour and a half later, Zeng Li went back to her house across the street because Mei Ting had called five minutes earlier to say she would be coming over in a little while.

Since she wanted to keep her relationship with Cheng Sheng a secret, Zeng Li didn't plan to tell anyone, not even her best friend Mei Ting.

After indulging herself, she felt a sense of pleasure, but it was all too painful.

Upon entering the room and seeing that Mei Ting had not yet returned, Zeng Li breathed a sigh of relief. She then took off her clothes, which were already covered in Cheng Sheng's scent. She needed to clean them thoroughly, otherwise Mei Ting would become suspicious if she smelled them.

Feeling the soreness in her body, Zeng Li couldn't help but complain inwardly. This little brother was really too much; he didn't know how to be gentle with a woman at all. (End of Chapter)
