Quick Transmigration: Will Even a Foolishly Popular Person Be Forced to Love Him?

Chapter 41 Disqualified Little Idol 6

The air in the lounge seemed to have been sucked out, so thick and sticky that it was hard to breathe.

Qi Li held Yun Zhi in his arms, his tall and upright figure like an impenetrable net, sealing off all her escape routes.

He lowered his head to chase Yun Zhi's lips, his usual gentle and refined facade long gone, replaced by a deep and intense infatuation in his eyes.

Even though someone was knocking on the door, Qi Li ignored it and instead parted Yun Zhi's lips, greedily stirring them in her warm and fragrant mouth.

Only Yunzhi seemed like a kitten frightened by the thunder and rain, her whole body trembling slightly.

"Qi Li, there are people around, stop kissing, someone will see us—"

Yun Zhi was terrified. Her snow-white legs kicked wildly in the air, but were quickly pressed down by Qi Li's burning palm.

"That's great, I'm ready to announce it to you anytime."

Qi Li didn't care at all; in fact, he was quite happy to have his relationship with Qi Li discovered.

He was willing, but Yunzhi wasn't!

As a minor idol, her fans are watching her more closely than anyone else.

Qi Li was already out of her options; Yun Zhi didn't even want to think about it if people found out and it caused a scandal.

"No, no, I can't be found out, you promised me, waah!"

Yun Zhi's embarrassed gasps were completely swallowed by Qi Li. She was both angry and anxious, and bit him, but Qi Li, who was strangely excited, kissed her even deeper.

"Knock knock".

Two more slow knocks sounded at the door, accompanied by a slightly cold voice.

"Alright."

The soundproofing of the lounge door is so-so; it doesn't prevent the voices of people standing at the door from clearly penetrating through it.

"Have you gone crazy enough? Do you know what we're going to do next?"

The familiar, harsh tone made Yun Zhi's eyes widen instantly. Her previously flushed face turned pale, and she was so frightened that tears streamed down her face.

—It's Xie Yuan.

It was the director of the film Yunzhi had shot, and also the film she was going to promote during the roadshow. He was Xie Yuan, the guy who looked at people with eyes like a dead object, fierce and frightening.

He was already dissatisfied with Yun Zhi, the female lead who had been forced into the role, and his gaze towards her was colder than anything else.

If Xie Yuan found out that he and Qi Li were hanging out here—

"Qi Li, Qi Li...!"

Perhaps because Yun Zhi was too pitiful and frightened, Qi Li finally stopped moving.

He didn't release Yun Zhi immediately, but instead turned his head slightly and kissed her cheek reassuringly without lifting his head.

"I know what I'm doing, you don't need to tell me, get lost."

"Young Master Qi's temper has really grown, and the Qi family's upbringing is quite unique."

Xie Yuan, standing outside the door, was clearly not intimidated by him. He even pushed open the unlocked door with a cold expression.

He was tall and handsome, with very light-colored eyes that exuded a faint coolness, like thin ice in early spring.

The female lead, who was seemingly indifferent to her surroundings, was being held in someone's arms and kissed until she cried.

Having filmed her for so long, Xie Yuan already knew what kind of person Yun Zhi was.

He was dull, clumsy, slow-witted, and weak, and came from District E, which was the type Xie Yuan used to hate the most.

Not only are they unable to see the situation clearly, but they also dare to leave themselves alone.

Therefore, at this moment, Yunzhi, who disliked exercise, didn't even have the strength to struggle.

Unable to refuse or resist, she was forced to raise her slender neck and let her mouth swell up from being eaten.

...You little good-for-nothing.

So incompetent that they can't even protect themselves.

If discovered, they could only tremble and cower in the culprit's arms, not even having the courage to raise their heads.

If someone can be forced to kiss you like this in a crowded place, especially when you're alone in the lounge, what would happen if you were in a secluded spot?

I'm afraid I'll be so upset that I won't even be able to cry anymore.

Qi Li lovingly licked away the wetness from Yun Zhi's lips before raising his head and looking at him with icy eyes.

"How come I didn't know Director Xie was so free? Did he really need someone as busy as you to come and inform him about something so trivial?"

He was so idle that even Qi Li's assistant, who was stationed outside, couldn't stop him.

Xie Yuan slightly raised his chin and spoke slowly and deliberately:

"This isn't some young master who doesn't care about the situation and just throws tantrums anywhere. It's disgusting."

His gaze swept lightly over Yun Zhi's disheveled face, his eyes narrowed, and his tone carried a hint of disgust and mockery:

"Just a heads up, the roadshow outside starts in twenty minutes. I don't care what you look like, but she—"

Xie Yuan stopped looking at Yun Zhi, who was engrossed in preparing the quail, and coldly scoffed:

"I don't want people to say I have bad taste. It's my first time filming a poor person from District E, and it's already caused a scandal within a few days."

After saying that, he ignored the commotion inside the door and turned to leave.

Qi Li didn't speak again. After watching him leave with a cool gaze, she looked at Yun Zhi.

Yun Zhi's lips were now even redder from his kisses, and her beautiful face was flushed with a rosy blush.

"Has he...he left?"

Although Yunzhi prayed in her heart that Xie Yuan wouldn't find out, she knew it was impossible.

In that brief moment when their eyes met, Xie Yuan's expression was even worse than when he was cursing on set.

However, given Xie Yuan's personality, he couldn't very well ask someone to leak information about her... could he?

"He's gone, Zhizhi, don't be afraid."

Qi Li leaned close to her ear and said in a voice so gentle it was almost a whisper, yet chillingly tender:

"He's just an insignificant piece of trash. Zhizhi doesn't need to listen to him, nor does she need to care about what's going on outside."

"Relax a little, okay?"

A lot of people came to the roadshow.

Even before the main actors appeared, everyone's faces were already filled with barely suppressed excitement.

The film "The Crime" was an instant hit upon its release, sweeping the entire market and heading straight for the top spot at the box office.

The film leans towards suspense, telling the story of a battle of wits between a genius criminal and a genius police officer.

Criminals don't commit crimes themselves; they're more like crime consultants, adept at instigating others to commit crimes while managing to absolve themselves of all responsibility.

The police officer comes from a prominent family and was groomed as their successor from a young age. He is self-disciplined, courteous, upright, and brave.

The two sides are contrasting examples, their lives are vastly different, yet they are in a predator-prey relationship.

As for Yunzhi...

She plays an innocent girl who is accidentally targeted by criminals.

Although this character is said to be the female lead, she doesn't actually get much screen time; she only spends a little over twenty minutes on the role.

She only happened to brush past the criminal on the street, but the criminal targeted her as if she were his prey. The police officer even developed some strange feelings for her while protecting her.

Such a character is actually quite one-dimensional.

Because it's difficult to convince the audience that such a person exists, it's easy for them to be portrayed as a decorative vase with no real presence.

—Ke Yunzhi is so beautiful.

When someone is so beautiful that you can't help but feel protective and affection towards them, deep down you may also be churning with intense destructive and sadistic desires.

The criminal, who was born with a cold heart, wanted to turn her into his most perfect creation the moment he saw her.

The righteous police officer, who was supposed to protect her, often looked at Yun Zhi with a gaze no more innocent than that of a criminal.

This exaggerated setup was confirmed the moment Yun Zhi made her appearance.

The high-definition camera focused on her, and the audience was captivated the moment they saw her, even before the criminals and police officers.

In the film, the two sides engage in fierce combat while surrounding Yun Zhi, creating an undercurrent of tension.

When he was arrested, the criminal looked at the police officer who represented justice, and at Yun Zhi, who was nestled tightly in the officer's arms and was as delicate and pale as a doll princess, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly.

"You will be just like me."

He said with certainty.

I am convinced that this person who represents justice will eventually fall into the same boundless darkness as me.

The criminal became so certain after accidentally witnessing the way the police officer looked at Yun Zhi when no one was watching her.

At the end of the film, the police officer simply lowered his eyes and gently touched Yunzhi's long hair.

The young man had large palms, and there was a faint, healed scar on his index finger.

The camera focused on his face, the shadow of his police cap obscuring most of his expression, revealing only a faint curve at the corner of his lips.

"...Will I end up like you?"

The film ends here.

If that's all there is to it, it probably doesn't prove anything.

But there's a little Easter egg at the end of the movie.

After the criminals were arrested, nothing else really happened.

On a sunny afternoon, Yunzhi was watering flowers in her yard.

The bright light made Yunzhi even more beautiful.

She remained pure white and gentle, like an angel fallen to earth.

If the camera doesn't then move to a hidden camera.

As the camera faded away, the final image focused on a finger with faint white marks—

He turned off the surveillance camera feed.

When this scene unfolded, everyone in the audience fell silent.
