Chapter 62: Shameless Rascal

Wait a minute!

The director’s brief statement carried a lot of information!

Going to a private island to film the show, and then enjoying the most luxurious vacation after work for free???

And the reason why the big sponsor was so generous was because a certain female guest wanted to see the sea???

The guests momentarily forgot about the fact that they were going to enjoy life on a private island, and their eyes started scanning around.

Who?

Who?

Who exactly is that female guest???

Bai Ruoruo slightly lowered her blushing face, looking both shy and as if she was trying to avoid attention.

Chen Wanruo bypassed the delicate and pretentious Bai Ruoruo with her gaze, scoffed lightly, and directly looked at Lu Yu and Jiang Mi.

Lu Yu blinked twice and suddenly grabbed Jiang Mi’s wrist.

Jiang Mi’s beautiful face remained calm, revealing no emotions.

[Ahhh, what kind of real-life drama is this? Treating someone to a private island, it’s just too indulgent!]

[Who is the female guest that the sponsor favors so much? Come out and let me swoon over you!]

[Chen Wanruo and Lu Yu look so curious, glancing around like they have no idea. Jiang Mi’s expressionless face doesn’t look surprised either, but Bai Ruoruo is blushing shyly. It must be her!]

[Heh, she’s pretending. If it were really her, she’d have already boasted about it openly. There’s no way she’d stay this quiet.]

[I totally misjudged her. I always thought she was some pure little fairy, but it turns out she loves riding the wave of popularity the most.]

[I feel like Mimi is suspicious. Everyone else is watching the drama, but she’s the only one who looks indifferent and isn’t saying a word.]

[Remember the ultra-luxurious seafood feast from the last episode? There were rumors that it was for Jiang Mi. Now, with this private island, and the director directly saying it’s because of a female guest, hmm…]

[It’s all coming together now. Mimi is a top-tier heiress, so having a boyfriend from another top-tier wealthy family isn’t too far-fetched, right!]

[But wait, this is a romance show!!! If the investor is spending all this money and providing an island, isn’t it odd that they’re watching their little darling date other men???]

[Could it be that the big-shot investor is actually Jiang Mi’s dad?]

The lively chat suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

Jiang Mi also remained quietly still.

She had gone through the most heartbreaking betrayal, and later, she experienced countless missions across different worlds, so she was long used to bearing things on her own.

But now, she realized that being cared for, cherished, and tenderly protected could feel so sweet and wonderful.

A small, offhand wish she mentioned was seriously remembered and fulfilled by the man.

Her heart swelled with a bittersweet emotion.

Suddenly, Lu Yu excitedly shook Jiang Mi’s arm, “Ahhh, so jealous, so pampered! Mimi, who do you think that lucky female guest is?”

Jiang Mi pulled herself out of her thoughts, her smile gentle and intoxicating, “Yes, who could it be?”

“Hey, what’s with your voice—”

Lu Yu was about to finish her sentence when Jiang Mi interrupted, “Be sure to thank him.”

Lu Yu froze for a moment and noticed the unusual redness at the corner of Jiang Mi’s eyes, as if she had been crying.

Lu Yu was about to ask when she saw Jiang Mi turn to look at Gu Chuan.

The person Jiang Mi wanted to thank was Gu Chuan?

Wait a minute, because a certain female guest wanted to see the sea, the sponsor specifically provided a private island, and now Jiang Mi said she needed to thank the sponsor and then looked at Gu Chuan!

In an instant, Lu Yu’s eyes widened in realization, filled with gossiping curiosity, “Mi—mmph?”

Her mouth was suddenly covered by a warm, dry hand. Confused, Lu Yu turned her head and found herself staring into Fu Li’s narrow eyes behind his glasses.

Immediately, her fair cheeks flushed slightly.

Fu Li’s voice was deep, “Be good, don’t be a third wheel.”

Lu Yu’s face turned bright red. She hadn’t intended to interrupt Gu Chuan and Jiang Mi. She wasn’t a third wheel at all!

The light reflected off Fu Li’s glasses as he released his hand from her mouth.

Lu Yu breathed a barely noticeable sigh of relief; the man covering her mouth had made her too nervous to even breathe.

But the next moment, the man gently pinched the soft flesh of her cheek, his voice teasing as if savoring the moment, “Just as soft as I imagined.”

Lu Yu’s eyes instantly widened, as if she had suffered a great grievance, and they welled up with a thin layer of tears. “Shameless rascal!”

Fu Li: “……”
