Chapter 556: Already Won
Ling Sheng nodded. She really did not want to talk to him. The eyes of the public were sharp, but his actions were extremely childish.
Lu Yubai showed the voting results to Huo Ci. “Mine is the best. Do you see that? Mine is the best.”
Huo Ci was playing Tetris with Xiaoqi and had no time to pay attention to him. He did not even look at him. Anyway, he did not care. He had already won.
Lu Yubai pointed at them indignantly.
Okay, your family is impressive! If I play such a childish game with you again in the future, my surname will not be Lu anymore!
Ling Sheng stayed at home for eight days.
She would arrive in the Maldives on the 9th of January. On the 10th, the commercial would start being filmed officially. In order to have the best filming effect, the filming period would be one week.
The day before Ling Sheng went to the Maldives, her grandma packed her luggage in advance. She packed two big suitcases to the brim.
“Grandma, the Maldives is a tropical country. There’s no need to bring so many things.” Ling Sheng’s heart warmed, but she felt helpless. She took some things out as she spoke.
Su Xiyin looked at the items she had taken out. After rummaging through them for a long time, she stuffed a long coat back in a suitcase. “I saw the weather forecast, and there will be rain in the next few days. The temperature will be at a minimum of 26 degrees. Get two more coats.”
Ling Sheng did not have many summer clothes, so she could not find a pretty dress even if she wanted to. When she had first arrived, it had been summer. However, her relationship with her father had not been good at the time, and she had been short on money. She had not had the spare money to buy clothes. After searching for a long time, she had only found a few dresses that did not suit her taste.
It was winter now, so she could not buy a summer dress even if she went to the mall. She could only shop for pretty dresses in the Maldives.
The next morning, Ling Sheng left early. Her grandparents took Xiaoqi to the airport and watched as she passed the security check before leaving reluctantly.
This was her first time overseas, so Sister Mei was worried. She had thus asked Zhou Zhou and Su Ye to follow her. She had initially wanted to bring two more bodyguards for her, but she had rejected her idea. It was just an advertisement. There was no need to make such a big fuss.
When she reached the hotel booked by the advertising company, it was evening. Ling Sheng went to the washroom first.
The staff in charge of liaising had already given Xiao Ye and Zhou Zhou their room cards. Zhou Zhou went to the front desk to talk with the receptionist and check in. However, his English was not good, so he could not explain clearly even after speaking for a long time.
In the resting area not far away, Du Manqing saw Ling Sheng enter with her two assistants immediately. Her eyes darkened, and she picked up the man’s leather bag opposite her as though nothing had happened and took out a room card. She called her assistant over and whispered something in his ear before handing the card to him.
Upon receiving the order, the assistant walked over to the anxious Su Ye and smiled. “Miss, are you going to the front desk? I’ll help you watch your luggage!”
Su Ye was a little anxious when she saw that Zhou Zhou could not explain anything after a long time. She wanted to do something herself, but she was watching her luggage, so she could not leave. However, she did not know the man, so she rejected him politely. “There’s no need.”
“We’re all Chinese. Everyone says that we rely on our parents at home and on our friends when we’re out. I don’t have anything to do now, so I’ll help you keep watch. You can go over.” Upon seeing that she was quite vigilant, the assistant gave her an even kinder smile.
Su Ye thanked him gratefully and ran over to Zhou Zhou.
When the assistant found Ling Sheng’s room card in Su Ye’s bag, he tore off the name tag and pasted it on another room card.
Chapter 557: Mistress Ling Sheng
After doing all this, he waited for Xiao Ye to arrive as though nothing had happened.
Xiao Ye was more professional than Zhou Zhou, so she quickly took care of the check-in procedure. After she thanked him, Ling Sheng came out of the washroom and the three of them got in the elevator.
Du Manqing deliberately lowered her hat and watched Ling Sheng and the others enter the elevator before taking off her sunglasses. Then, she took out her phone and sent a message to the paparazzi she was familiar with: I’ll give you a big scoop. Sun Island XD Hotel, Room 1208.
A handsome middle-aged man standing not far away walked over and sat across from her. “Sorry for making you wait so long, Manqing.”
“Director Feng, you’re being too serious.” Du Manqing looked at the man in front of her humbly. “I’ve been wanting to meet you for a long time.”
“I didn’t expect to meet you here. It was really fate. Do you have a strict schedule?” Director Feng asked her.
Du Manqing smiled elegantly and passed the man a glass of champagne. “I’m here to shoot a magazine cover. Director Feng, you are here to film an advertisement, right? The female lead, Ling Sheng, is my junior at our company. She achieved great results in just half a year. I’m really happy for her.”
The man opposite her was Feng Yao, a gold-medal advertisement director in the country. He had won countless awards and had been filming movies for the past few years. He had also achieved very good results. He was over 40 years old and he looked very handsome.
Most importantly, he had started filming a husband-and-wife variety show, Husband and Wife, with his wife last year. There was a total of four couples on the show. They were all celebrities in the entertainment circle who had been married for more than 15 years. There were old actors and directors among them.
However, he was the most popular. Countless people liked him and his wife. The way they interacted with each other made them melt. They were a loving couple that everyone envied. He had also become the best choice for a good husband in the hearts of countless women.
If there was a scandal between him and Ling Sheng, regardless of whether Ling Sheng had recommended herself by climbing into Director Feng’s bed or Director Feng had cheated to be with Ling Sheng, she would definitely be sentenced to eternal damnation.
“I heard that you and Ling Sheng are artists working under Manager Mei. Even if you terminate your contract, your future will be bright!” Feng Yao raised his glass and nodded slightly at her before taking a sip of champagne.
“Thank you for your kind words, Director Feng. I hope we will work together in the future.” Du Manqing picked up her champagne glass and finished it in one gulp. “I’ll drink first.”
Feng Yao, who was a big man, also raised his glass and finished it in one gulp. “It would be my honor to work with you, Manqing.”
When she saw the man finish the champagne, Du Manqing’s lips curled up in satisfaction. She said apologetically, “Director Feng, I need to run to get to my next appointment. Let’s talk again. I’ll treat you to a meal next time.”
She had mixed something in the champagne. Even if Ling Sheng was unwilling, a man should not be able to control himself under the circumstances.
Feng Yao took Du Manqing to the entrance of the hotel. Upon seeing her car disappear in front of him, he turned around and entered the hotel. He planned to rest for a while before finding the main cast and having a meeting to explain the advertisement they would be filming tomorrow.
Du Manqing sat in the car, her lips curling up smugly and her eyes full of victory. In less than an hour, the scandal would spread everywhere.
She had even thought of titles for it.
# Ling Sheng became a mistress and interfered in someone else’s marriage#
# Feng Yao cheated with Ling Sheng#
He would become a black mark in the entertainment circle and would not be able to make a comeback. He would be a drug addict, a scumbag, a cheater, and a prostitute’s client.
Mei Xuelin had treated Ling Sheng like a treasure and given her all the resources, causing her to have no choice but to terminate her contract and find another way out. She did not know if Mei Xuelin would be able to make a comeback and support her after Ling Sheng became the third party in someone else’s marriage!
Chapter 558: My Room
Ling Sheng had been on the plane for nearly ten hours, and she was so tired that her bones were falling apart. When she reached her room, she threw her luggage aside and entered the bathroom. She would take a nice hot shower, put on a facial mask, and have a good night’s sleep. She would get up tomorrow looking all beautiful to film an advertisement.
Half an hour later, Gu Shen opened the door and came in with a suitcase. After Chen Ge had taken him to the hotel, he’d said he wanted to meet an old friend, so he had let him go.
The lights in the room were actually on. On the ground were women’s clothes, a beige-white dress and beige underwear.
Gu Shen’s eyes darkened. He thought he had entered the wrong room. He took the room card and retreated to the door to take another look. There was no mistake. This was his room number.
Ling Sheng, who was taking a 30-minute shower, was feeling so comfortable that she was about to fall asleep in the bathtub. She got up in a daze, wrapped herself in a towel, and opened the bathroom door barefoot.
Gu Shen had already called room service and complained. How could there be a woman’s clothes in his room? What did the cleaners do? Was this the hotel’s attitude toward guests?
He was waiting at the door for the hotel staff to arrive. However, he saw a woman walk out of the bathroom, only wearing a pink towel. He did not know why, but he subconsciously did not ask her to get lost. Instead, he closed the door.
The woman had just taken a shower, so her hair was still wet. She had a fair, swan-like neck, exquisite collarbones, and long, straight legs.
Gu Shen was immediately infuriated.
Ling Sheng!
Why her again?
That d*mn woman. Why was she in his room? She had said that she hated him and that he was imagining things. What about her? She had tried to get close to him.
Now that she had come knocking on his door, he had every reason to suspect that she had done it. She had taken his room card and entered his room to seduce him and climb into his bed.
The suite was quite big, and there was a corridor that led from the entrance to the living room. Ling Sheng did not notice that there was someone else there besides her. While humming a song, she bent down to pick up the clothes from the ground. Just as she’d gotten hold of them—
“Ling Sheng, is this your goal?” Gu Shen suddenly spoke up. Upon seeing the woman’s eyes widen in shock, he let out a mocking laugh. “What are you pretending for? Don’t tell me you didn’t know. Your sudden appearance in my room was an accident? Are you innocent?”
That d*mn woman!
What kind of expression was that? She was quite good at pretending. When the director she had worked with had complimented her acting skills, he had been full of disdain. Now, it seemed like she had indeed been born to be an actress. Look at her innocent look. She acted so well.
“Ah!” Ling Sheng had not expected someone to suddenly appear at that moment. After a short scream of fright, she crossed her arms and pointed at Gu Shen. “You pervert! Why are you in my room?”
Gu Shen’s eyes blazed as he walked toward her in disdain. “Ling Sheng, stop pretending in front of me.”
Chapter 559: Self-Directed Performance
Ling Sheng only had a towel wrapped around her, so she did not dare make any big moves. She was afraid that the towel would fall off and expose her body. When she saw Gu Shen walk over, her nervous voice changed. “Gu Shen, let me warn you. I’m your Third Aunt. I’ll count to three. You’d better get out of my room, or I’ll find your Third Uncle and he’ll beat you to death, you pervert!”
“Ling Sheng, who’s the pervert?” Gu Shen looked at her in amusement. She continued to pretend. How could she say that she was his Third Aunt when she was naked in his room? “My Third Uncle would not like a cheap woman like you!”
Then, he threw the room card in his hand at her. “Open your eyes and take a good look. Why are you in my room?”
Ling Sheng looked at the room card with the name “Gu Shen” written on it. She did not know how this had happened, but she was forced to take a step back. “Let’s talk nicely. Really, this must be a misunderstanding. If you don’t believe me, go and take my room card. You’ll understand. I’m not that kind of person. I know you’re not that kind of person either.”
D*mn, the scumbag in front of her was a little aggressive today. His aura was kind of strong. She did not know if it was because of her clothes, but she was a little scared.
“You think I believe you? Everything was orchestrated by you!” Gu Shen took off his suit jacket and started tugging at his tie. Upon seeing the sinister smile on her face, he said, “Ling Sheng, since you like me so much that you insist on having me, I’ll grant your wish today. After all, you’ve come knocking on my door.”
When she saw him start undressing, Ling Sheng’s face darkened. She picked up a vase from the table and defended herself. “I’m warning you. Be nicer. This must be a misunderstanding.”
Why did nothing good ever happen every time she met this scumbag? If he dared to come over, she would smash him to death!
“What misunderstanding? Did I misunderstand you?” Gu Shen let out a mocking laugh. “Ling Sheng, since you had the guts to do it, don’t pretend to be a chaste woman in front of me.”
Upon seeing that Gu Shen was about to reach her, Ling Sheng retreated to the French balcony windows with the vase and pressed her body against the glass. “Gu Shen, I’ll say this one last time. I don’t know what’s going on. If you come close again, don’t blame me for being rude.”
Gu Shen’s smile was full of mockery and disdain. He pointed at his head and said word by word, “Smash it, Ling Sheng. Smash the vase here if you have the guts.”
He bet that she would not dare make a move. She had schemed all along just to climb into his bed.
“Nothing good comes out of a dog’s mouth!” Ling Sheng bellowed angrily. F*ck you. Her evil intentions had been aroused. She raised the vase in her hand and smashed it forcefully against Gu Shen’s head.
Porcelain shards flew everywhere.
The vase hit Gu Shen’s head, causing blood to flow out immediately. He widened his eyes in disbelief as he looked at the woman in front of him and bellowed in anger, “Ling Sheng!”
She had really dared to hit him!
She was courting death!
Before Ling Sheng could react, she saw the man opposite her rush over, waving a fist furiously. She subconsciously picked up a chair that was beside her and prepared to fight it out with him.
However, before the duo could do anything, Gu Shen was kicked away the moment she raised the chair.
Chapter 560: Well Done!
Ling Sheng’s eyes widened in disbelief when she saw a naked man in flowery pants blocking her way.
The man’s back was facing her. He was more than 1.8 meters tall, with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs. He had quite a nice build, a very eye-catching one at that.
“Gu Shen, are you even a man? You tried to hit a woman.” The man in the flowery pants looked at Gu Shen mockingly.
When Ling Sheng heard his voice, she felt as though she had been struck by lightning. Why was Huo Xuanzhou on the balcony? Why was he dressed like this? It was easy to misunderstand his intentions!
“So there’s already an adulterer here.” Gu Shen had not expected a man to suddenly walk in from the balcony. He was only wearing a pair of pants. He wiped the blood from the corner of his lips, his eyes full of mockery. He was fuming from anger as he bellowed angrily, “Ling Sheng, how dare you!”
Ling Sheng shrugged innocently. I really don’t know how this young master got in or why he’s dressed like this. This is definitely a misunderstanding.
Huo Xuanzhou was a shameless person with no bottom line. He thus smiled casually and said, “Sorry, I was on a date with someone upstairs. If you want to call me an adulterer, I guess it’s true. That Hollywood star is actually a married woman. Her husband rushed in with a gun. F*ck, he ruined my mood!”
Ling Sheng’s forehead darkened*. So you were having an affair up there, and her husband came to catch the woman. Did you jump down? How could you have the cheek to say such a thing?*
The simple-minded man in front of her seemed to have a different way of thinking than others. Judging from his tone, he seemed to quite regret that he had not had enough fun. Brother, you were chased by a man with a gun!
Gu Shen’s face was still bleeding, but it had already darkened like the bottom of a pot. He was cold and scary. “Do you think I’ll believe anything you say? Huo Xuanzhou, do you know who she is? She said she likes my Third Uncle and tried to seduce me at the same time.”
Huo Xuanzhou frowned and took a look at Ling Sheng. Fine, she had been disobedient and had gotten together with Jun Shiyan again. However, he had to protect Sixth Uncle’s people a little. “Gu Shen, I’m warning you. She’s my Sixth Aunt. Don’t spout nonsense.”
Gu Shen let out a mocking laugh. “So Ms. Ling likes to seduce her nephews in the name of being their aunt. Do you find incest very exciting?”
“Gu Shen, are you out of your mind? I jumped down the building.” Huo Xuanzhou went forward and looked down at him. He raised his eyebrows and smiled. “Do you want me to tell you something fun? Your ex-girlfriend, Luo Xin, is into this!”
When he heard Luo Xin’s name, Gu Shen’s eyes reddened instantly. “Huo Xuanzhou, if you wanted to deliberately make me angry, you miscalculated. I’ve already broken up with Luo Xin.”
“If you hadn’t broken up, I’d have suspected that you, Master Gu, were interested in getting it on with someone I’m done with.” Huo Xuanzhou smiled arrogantly.
Any man would get angry when he heard another man say right to his face that he had once had the same woman. Gu Shen was no exception. “Nonsense. When Luo Xin was with me, she was obviously…”
