Ducks and drakes beneath the cover of night, a single pear blossom pressed upon the begonia.

When Jiang Chen awoke on the first day of the New Year, he found a pair of intoxicating eyes lying beside him, staring at him.

Even though it was not the first time, and he hadn't been drinking, there was still a strong sense of unreality.

Of course.

Reality is reality.

The warmth conveyed, the fragrance at the tip of the nose, and everything he could see, all indicated it wasn't a dream.

"Why didn't you run away?"

Facing the beauty beside him openly, a trace of a curve escaped Jiang Chen's lips.

He remembered the last time.

Before he could wake, she had already fled in haste.

"Why run?"

Because of the lying position, the black hair cascaded down, forming a stark color contrast with Pei Yunxi's face.

The blush must have long faded, her face akin to luminous jade, providing a strong visual impact.

If the angle moved further down...

She didn't know how long she had been awake, but through the brief scenery exposed from beneath the quilt, one could see the sacred snow mountains, revealing she still had not a thread on.

The night of spring is short, rising when the sun is high, from now on, the emperor will not attend court early.

Question the foolish king.

Understand the foolish king.

"The first time, didn't you run quite fast?"

Jiang Chen brought up an indiscreet topic, not expecting her to remain indifferent.

"These things are quite normal in the adult world."

Indeed, very normal.

One-night stands where participants don't recognize each other after getting out of bed are countless.

But that's others.

Seeing that she seemed to define last night as a momentary indulgence in pleasure seeking, Jiang Chen restrained his smile.

"I am not a casual person."

Hmm.

The tone was quite serious.

Not self-praising, but in fact, it was indeed the truth in objective terms.

With his current power, wealth, social status, coupled with his appearance and age, if he really indulged in debauchery, to exaggerate, let alone from Hui City to East Sea, women would scramble to line up from here to East Sea.

So.

The satisfaction of lust is too low-level.

The essence of harmonious unity lies in the clash of souls.

If the first time was due to drunkenness, not his initiative choice, but last night he was very sober, so there were no excuses to invoke.

Of course.

Not preparing to invoke excuses either.

A man should take responsibility for his actions.

And before taking action, he should be ready to take responsibility.

"You shouldn't act anymore, if you really love this industry, you can switch to directing or producing."

Jiang Chen suddenly said, in a tone that left no room for doubt.

An actor turning to directing or producing is quite normal, many artists have taken this path.

Only in this scenario.

Lying stark naked in the same bed, inexplicably bringing up work and career, isn't it too much of a buzzkill?

But it seems it's not purely business.

"Why?"

Pei Yunxi rightfully questioned.

"Why do you think?"

Jiang Chen said: "Why Uncle Pei opposed you entering this industry is because artists' romantic lives are chaotic, I'm not saying you. Some celebrities do maintain decency, but the nature of this profession often leads to situations beyond control. For instance, promoting a scandal for publicity is part of the job, sacrificing for a work is equally a duty..."

"Do you know what my dad's educational background is?"

"Your dad's education is not important, I'm not being feudal, and I don't think Uncle Pei is either. Don't talk about using a stand-in or perspective tricks, why do entertainment circle couples or spouses have issues so easily, it's because acting facilitates sparks. Filming a movie requires a crew to work together day and night for months, and also perform opposite roles, it's normal to blur the lines between acting and reality."

"Of course, I'm not talking about you. You can guarantee yourself, but can you control others? Your charm, you should be aware."

Is this a compliment?

Anyway, it seems impossible to get angry.

"This is my own business."

"Not anymore now."

A man's fickleness indeed doesn't come out of nowhere, after getting into bed, everything changes.

Previously, Boss Jiang wasn't this overbearing?

"My woman, no one else can touch a finger, not even think about it."

Intimate scenes can use stand-ins or double takes, but movies have more than just intimate scenes.

With this standard, indeed, you really won't need to act anymore.

This is great then.

At the beginning of the New Year, after just a sleep, waking up to someone telling you to abandon the career you've fought for, who can accept that?

"Have you forgotten, you have a girlfriend."

Facing her reminder, Jiang Chen remained expressionless, and returned calmly and resolutely: "It doesn't affect."

What is shamelessness.

What is a scumbag.

Having a girlfriend, yet attempting to control someone, and when pointed out, he casually said it's not important.

If that's not important, what is?

"You have no right to interfere in my life."

Naturally, Pei Yunxi would not submit, and made a gesture to lift the quilt and get out of bed.

Beautiful moments are always short.

The atmosphere last night was so beautifully intense.

"If you don't agree, then I'll do it myself. Any director, producer, or male actor who dares to choose you, I will make sure they can make no film in the future."

Pei Yunxi paused.

She certainly understood who the man lying beside her in bed was.

Being unable to film is quite an understatement.

If he wants to, anyone who dares to work with her may likely find no way forward.

Words become laws.

Easily determining the fate of others.

This is what countless people crave—the position and power.

But before, he hadn't applied it on her.

"Don't you think you're going too far?"
