The Reigning Star: Tycoon's Exclusive Obsession

Feeling the burning gaze of the little woman opposite, Lu Beichen curled up a smile and asked, "With you staring at me like that, I don't really want to eat anymore."

I'd rather eat you!

Being exposed like this, she quickly withdrew her gaze, her face slightly flushing, Lu Beichen's smile grew wider, "My Mrs. Lu seems to be very easily shy."

"Not at all!" She hastily retorted, she's clearly not someone who gets shy easily, so why does she always feel so uneasy in front of him?

"I will do a great job in playing the role of Shen Xiaole!" She changed the subject and then encouraged herself, "This is my new beginning!"

Lu Beichen placed a piece of meat onto her plate, "You're too skinny, eat more!"

He commented on her thinness again, but she just can't put on weight!

Early the next morning, Ji Niandong got up to prepare to report at Yi Tai, Lu Beichen was up even earlier, dressed in sportswear, presumably having just finished running from the upstairs gym.

He was still covered in sweat, his short bangs hanging wetly on his forehead, tank top, shorts, sneakers, quite a contrast to his usual appearance.

No wonder he's in great shape, turns out he exercises!

Ji Niandong thought of his perfect V-line and abs and swallowed hard.

Seeing she was up, Lu Beichen casually greeted, "Good morning!"

She still with sleepy eyes, her pure face incredibly clean, her hair slightly tousled, indeed casual, yet without losing innocence.

"Mrs. Lu looks more like a high schooler when she wakes up in the morning!" Lu Beichen leaned against the fridge, drinking water, and laughed.

Ji Niandong then glanced down at herself, ruffled her messy hair, and turned to enter the bedroom.

A while later, she came out tidied up, Lu Beichen had also finished showering and changing clothes, ready with bread and milk for breakfast, plus a fried egg.

Putting his best culinary skills to use, Ji Niandong smiled and quietly ate her breakfast.

"Why are you smiling?" Lu Beichen asked lightly.

"Nothing!" She shook her head, still smiling contentedly.

"Silly! Eat well, once you finish... shall I take you there on my way?" He asked a bit worriedly.

Ji Niandong shook her head vigorously, the latest model of a business Cayenne, everyone knows it's Lu Beichen's car, she didn't want to get out of that car in broad daylight, "I'll just take a taxi there myself!"

"Then I wish you all the best!" He raised a milk-filled glass, clinking it with hers.

Then the two exchanged smiles and downed their glasses together.

This morning's Weibo hot topic was once again occupied by "Choked Love," saying most of the cast had been set, just waiting for the official announcement.

A bunch of actor names was listed below, with discussions tallying up to billions, everyone eagerly awaiting the announcement, some book fans even pleading not to ruin the original work.

As soon as Ji Niandong entered Yi Tai, she was guided inside, the large studio filled with confirmed cast members and the "Choked Love" staff.

Zhou Yiqing spotted her at once, ran over to sit next to her, excitedly asked, "Tongtong, you passed the audition too, that's great, I knew you wouldn't have any issues, we can film together again! What role did you land?"

Ji Niandong was also genuinely delighted to encounter a familiar face, "Shen Xiaole, Shen Xiaoke's sister!"

"I heard many post-95 young ladies fought tooth and nail for this role, how did you get it?" Zhou Yiqing asked with envy, then excited curiosity, "Guess what character I'm playing?"

Ji Niandong glanced with those discussions in the news, fairly certain who played who, couldn't imagine what role was Zhou Yiqing's, a little embarrassed, replied, "I can't guess."

"It's related to yours!" She pursed her lips in a playful smile.

Ji Niandong suddenly realized, "Shen Xiaole's good friend Xiao Xing?"

Zhou Yiqing nodded, opened her arms to hug her, "Tongtong, we're so meant to be, friends both on and off the screen!"

"Mhm mhm!" Ji Niandong was also moved to the core.
