Chapter 795

Golden Agent of the Adonis (115)

“Stop thinking about that for now. First, polish the script for the first part before discussing anything else,” the producer interrupted the screenwriter but with a happy expression. “The character choices are without a doubt: Chu Xiang, Zhenxuan, welcome to Case Investigation Adventure. And of course, the lovely little Xinxin. I have a feeling that you’ll dominate the Lunar New Year box office in six months!”

Chu Xiang smiled and said, “Thank you for your kind words. I hope Case Investigation Adventure will be a box office success.”

Their roles were set just like that. Fang Zhenxuan was in an unprecedentedly good mood as he finally snatched such excellent resources face-to-face from Xia Ze, especially the scene where Xia Ze was scared by Chu Xiang in the end. It was truly satisfying!

During the return journey, he quietly said to Chu Xiang in the car, “Thanks.”

Chu Xiang curled up the corners of her lips, lowered her head, and silently scrolled through Weibo without saying a word.

Their understanding went beyond just the on-screen chemistry. In their daily lives, they were already inseparable, always able to coordinate seamlessly with each other.

When news broke that Fang Zhenxuan was chosen as the male lead in the movie, Xia Ze’s fans were furious while Fang Zhenxuan’s fans celebrated and cheered for their idol once again. Sometimes, the fans’ victory or defeat depended on their idol. No matter how much the fans argued or made a fuss, if their idol lost, it meant they had lost.

Xia Ze had been defeated in the audition, so his fans holding on to the arguments of the investors was of no use. It only made them a laughingstock. It was like trying to regain lost prestige through self-deception, but others simply didn’t care.

After Chu Xiang and the others returned home and before going to the set, Chu Xiang had Fang Zhenxuan record a video in her bedroom.

“The movie is ours now. Let’s take advantage of this hype to promote it and increase everyone’s anticipation. Most importantly, let’s give the fans some benefits. You still haven’t released the perks for reaching ten million followers on Weibo. Now you’re almost close to 20 million.”

Chu Xiang pushed Fang Zhenxuan into the bedroom and closed the door, causing him to feel a bit nervous for no apparent reason. He coughed lightly and asked in confusion, “What are we recording here? What kind of welfare?”

Chu Xiang smiled slightly, “Of course, it’s the male beauty welfare!”

“Ah?”

Chu Xiang pushed the bewildered Fang Zhenxuan in front of the wardrobe and personally selected an outfit for him. “You haven’t worn this tailored suit yet. The cut is excellent. Let’s pair it with this tie. Do you know how to tie a tie?”

“Um, yes.”

“And a white shirt, trousers, belt, leather shoes… Well, that should be enough. Wait a moment, let me adjust your hairstyle.” Chu Xiang switched into work mode, just like a professional hairstylist.

Fang Zhenxuan sat on the chair, watching her bustling around him, and his gaze involuntarily softened. His lips quietly curved up into a smile.

He slowly clenched his hands into fists on his knees and controlled himself. He feared that he wouldn’t be able to resist reaching out and embracing her. But it wasn’t the right time yet. He needed to stand a bit higher and solve his own troubles first. For now, he would cherish this time alone with her. Besides, his heart felt just as sweet.

After Chu Xiang finished styling his hair and laid out the selected clothes at the end of the bed, Fang Zhenxuan looked at her for a few seconds, squinting his eyes, and asked, “Aren’t I supposed to change clothes? Aren’t you going to leave?”

Chu Xiang blinked. “Did I forget to tell you? We’re shooting a video of a lawyer dressed in formal attire. We’ll start with a white shirt. Of course, for the white shirt part, I’ll edit out any exposed skin. Then we’ll record buttoning up, tying the tie, and putting on the suit. Don’t worry, nothing will be exposed.”

Fang Zhenxuan felt his breath quicken. Yes, after video editing, nothing would be exposed, but when Chu Xiang films him, she will definitely capture the process of him taking off his clothes and putting on the shirt. Wouldn’t that mean… she would see everything?

He glanced at Chu Xiang, who was waiting with a camera in her hand, and suddenly smirked. He stood up and went to get his pants, placing one hand on the belt at his waist, as if about to undo it.

Chu Xiang immediately said, “We won’t record the lower part! Go to the bathroom and change your pants.”

However, Fang Zhenxuan dropped his pants down. “Now that you mention it, I remember I’ve been out all day and I’m covered in sweat. These clothes are still new. I’ll take a quick shower before changing. Don’t worry, I’ll be fast. Just wait for me.”

Fang Zhenxuan strode with his long legs and entered the bathroom in a few steps. Soon, the sound of the shower could be heard from inside.

Chu Xiang chuckled softly and calmly sat on the small sofa, waiting for him. A few minutes later, the bathroom door opened, and Fang Zhenxuan walked out with his bare upper body, wearing only a towel wrapped around his waist.

He walked straight up to Chu Xiang and bent down, placing his hands on the armrests of the sofa on either side, trapping her in front of him. He whispered, “Did I lose weight? I ordered that outfit a month ago. Do you think it might not fit?”

Chu Xiang raised an eyebrow lightly. “Then… should I measure you?”

“Huh?” Fang Zhenxuan didn’t expect her to suggest that and was momentarily stunned.

Chu Xiang pushed him on the chest and stood up with him. Fang Zhenxuan felt a burning sensation in the places where Chu Xiang had touched him, and his heartbeat became erratic. She assumed a hugging position, her hands wrapping around his back, fingers barely grazing his waist as they slid slowly from his lower back to his abdomen. She smiled and said, “You haven’t lost weight. Your waist is just right.”

As Chu Xiang raised her hand to measure other areas, Fang Zhenxuan grabbed her hands, swallowed hard, and took a step back, saying, “I, uh, it’s good that I haven’t lost weight. I’ll go change clothes.”

He hastily picked up his pants and rushed into the bathroom as if fleeing. Chu Xiang heard the sound of running water again, and this time it lasted for quite a while before stopping. She chuckled softly and opened the door, speaking up, “Sister Wen, could you please make a bowl of ginger soup? Zhenxuan might… catch a slight chill.”

Fang Zhenxuan heard her words from the bathroom and smiled wryly at himself in the mirror. He obediently changed his clothes.
