54 The New Male Guest
“Oh right, we even took a video yesterday!” Fang Tongtong knocked her own head.

She hastily retrieved the flash drive from her purse.

“I had the company cut the video yesterday! I can’t believe I forgot about that.”

Ji Wenfeng took the USB drive and turned on the computer in Shi Ran’s study.

Seeing how relaxed Shi Ran was, Fang Tongtong rushed over.

“Sister Ran, you have a good temper. You don’t even know how overboard this person is.”

“How overboard?” Shi Ran looked up from her script.

“Look!” Fang Tongtong handed the phone to Shi Ran.

Shi Ran glanced at it, unconcerned. ‘Who do you think did it?’

“Must be anti-fans,” Fang Tongtong said with a pout.

“If you get it right, we’ll have a hotpot tonight.”

Fang Tongtong’s eyes lit up for a moment. She frowned and started thinking.

“She took such a good picture of Wen Yufei and you, Sister Ran. Either she’s deliberately comparing you to…”

She was enlightened. “Wen Yufei’s people! It must be that arrogant assistant!”

“What hotpot are you planning for dinner?”

“It’s actually her!” Fang Tongtong stood up angrily. “The thought of it being her makes me even angrier. She’s the one who set us up!!”

Shi Ran couldn’t help but laugh.

Yesterday, when Wen Yufei’s assistant secretly took photos of her, she had dropped something and was bending down to pick it up. Hence, Shi Ran had already seen her doing that.

Ugly photos didn’t bother her.

After all, actors spoke with their work.

Crew dressing room

“Sister Yufei, Shi Ran is being criticized badly now. Hahaha.” Xiao Qi sat on the sofa and said excitedly.

Wen Yufei was putting on makeup.

When the makeup artist heard this, she asked suspiciously, “What happened to Shi Ran?”

“I’ll show you.” Xiao Qi immediately got up and showed the makeup artist the post.

After the makeup artist finished reading, she mocked, “Comparing Shi Ran to Sister Yufei? Aren’t you asking for trouble? Our Sister Yufei is known as an unedited photo killer.”

“She’s the only one in the world who’s worthy of Third Young Master!”

Xiao Qi was Wen Yufei’s die-hard fan.

Wen Yufei smiled helplessly. “Xiao Qi, why are you more hostile to her than me?”

“I just think she’s a toad lusting after a swan!”

“I don’t treat her as a love rival. She can’t enter the Chu family, and Jinchen won’t just like anyone.” Wen Yufei’s tone was gentle but her words were arrogant.

“That’s true, but the fans of the original novel are very resistant to Shi Ran joining now. If the production team can’t stand the pressure, they might just replace her.” Xiao Qi was smug.

“Returning with the King was originally an adaptation of a popular novel. For the beginning, they will have to rely on fans of the original work. So, the production team is probably under a lot of pressure now,” the makeup artist echoed.

“I’m going to check Shi Ran’s Weibo and see how badly she’s being scolded.”

Xiao Qi clicked on Shi Ran’s main page happily.

The next moment, the smile froze on her face and she brought her face closer to the phone in disbelief.

Shi Ran’s studio released a video of Shi Ran taken during her photoshoot session.

In the video, everything from makeup to coming out of the changing room after dressing up, to the filming and Kell’s praise were all filmed.

Whether it was the first look or the second, they were no different from the official makeup photos.

In fact, because it was a video, Shi Ran appeared even more lively than in the photo.

[!!! Why is this completely different from the previous photo?]

[It’s so dark in the raw photos. This place is practically glowing white. Did they add filters to the videos?]

[Whoever said filter, look at the staff next to her.]

[I’ve seen Love Warning. Our Master Ran is a fair-skinned person.]

[That photo was obviously taken by anti-fans. They deliberately posted it. They’re Wen Yufei’s fans, right?]

[I’ve wanted to say this for a long time. That raw picture didn’t even show her face clearly.]

[It’s so beautiful!! I love the second set. The dark Bai Lan is so enchanting!]

[The studio directly slapped their faces. I wonder if that marketing account’s face hurts.]

[To be honest, she’s much prettier than Wen Yufei, okay?]

“What’s wrong?” Wen Yufei saw Xiao Qi’s reaction through the makeup mirror.

“Shi Ran and the others had actually taken a video!” Xiao Qi was so angry that she wanted to smash her phone. “Someone even said that Shi Ran is prettier than Sister Yufei!”

“Her manager is Wenfeng. An ugly photo is a small matter to him.” Wen Yufei looked at her face in the mirror and narrowed her eyes.

Is Shi Ran really better looking than her?

Did Jinchen feel the same way when Shi Ran was racing that day?

… .

The second week of “Love Warning” was being recorded at the beach house in F City.

Shi Ran and Fang Tongtong had checked into a nearby hotel a day earlier.

After checking into the hotel, Shi Ran went straight to the gym on the second floor of the hotel.

She was wearing a matcha-green workout shirt and dark gray workout pants. The tight design showed off her perfect figure.

It was eight o’clock at night, and the gym was still crowded.

She walked all the way to the treadmill, turning heads frequently.

Shi Ran started running with her earphones on as she could sense the gazes of the people around her.

She ignored them.

But there was only one burning gaze she couldn’t ignore.

She turned to look and met the demon’s half-smile.

“Why are you here?” Shi Ran was puzzled.

“On business,” Chu Jinchen said.

Shi Ran didn’t ask any more questions, but continued to run as she listened to the music.

An hour later she stopped moving and bent down to pick up her water bottle.

She looked around the gym as she drank,

realizing that she and Chu Jinchen were the only ones left in the gym.

Chu Jinchen was training his chest in a sitting position.

The two of them didn’t have much to say. They were both working out, and the atmosphere was inexplicably warm.

Two hours later, Shi Ran left the gym.

The Special Assistant happened to be walking over and brushed past Shi Ran. Seeing that she’s here, he suddenly understood.

He had wondered why Third Young Master had suddenly said that he wanted to clear the area and even asked someone to invite the rest of the gym users away.

It was probably because Miss Shi was around and he wanted to be alone with her.

What the Special Assistant did not know was that he had overestimated his Third Young Master as someone romantic.

The next morning, everyone met at the entrance of the hotel and took the production team’s bus to the recording venue.

“I heard that there will be a new male guest today and new rules. I’m inexplicably looking forward to it,” Shi Wenfei said sweetly.

Shi Ran sat in the last row with her eyes closed and did not speak.

Yu Ziqian took over the conversation. “Why don’t we all guess what profession the man holds?”

“We have singers, actors, anchors, CEOs now. I don’t suppose the new male guests are in those categories.”

“I’m looking forward to it.”

They drove all the way to the beach.

Everyone got out of the car as the refreshing sea breeze brushed against everyone’s face.

They walked along the beach and saw a two-story cottage in the distance.

And in the doorway of the cottage was a tall man with his back facing them. And to his right was a black suitcase.

The man was wearing a white shirt and black pants. His figure was absolutely proportionate.

He rested his arm lazily against his suitcase, his designer wristwatch in full view.

No one could see the man’s face clearly, but just from his back, it was obvious that this male guest was not bad-looking.
