Chapter 224

Dressed in a bright red dress, Qiao Anhao danced barefooted on a white marble stage .

The director had decorated the set exquisitely . There was a wide full-length window behind her, and outside, bright fireworks lit the dark skies . The curtains were milky white and even the walls and ceilings were the same shade of white . The pale background directed all the attention onto Qiao Anhao who was dressed in the fiery red dress .

In order to set the mood, background music was playing in the back . Other than the melodious music, nothing could be heard .

Gracefully, she bent, lifted her legs up high and leaped forward, her red dress flying wildly .

Without shoes, her tiny feet appeared delicate in contrast to the fiery dress .

Lu Jinnian stood beside Song Xiangsi . He took out his phone, pretending to read a text before looking towards Qiao Anhao in frustration . The moment he saw her dancing, he fell into a daze .

In that instance, he was captivated . He was supposed to look down at his phone once again, but all he could do was to continue staring at her . He seemed to have completely forgotten that the cameras were rolling, an unknown heat stirred internally .

From afar, the director frowned slightly . He hadn’t shouted “Cut”, assuming that Lu Jinnian wanted to add his own scenes .

But after a while, Lu Jinnian still remained motionless .

Song Xiangsi, who was standing beside him, seemed to have caught on . She turned to look at him, realizing that he was in a daze . Instinctively, she looked towards the director who was frowning, clearly displeased .

Song Xiangsi faltered, pretending to loosen her grip, dropping a cup of water . “Pang!”, the cup smashed into bits .

The sharp thud shocked Lu Jinnian out of his daze .

The director could no longer keep his frustration, shouting loudly, “CUT!”

Before waiting for the director to speak , Song Xiangsi graciously apologized, “I’m sorry, I seemed to be in a daze just now . I promise it won’t happen again . “

The director was appeased by her attitude, signaling for the crew to touch up her makeup .

In the midst of the frenzy, Song Xiangsi whispered in Lu Jinnian’s ear, “Mr . Lu, even though she’s pretty, I hope you’ll remember that we are filming . I’m sure you won’t want the entire crew to know you have a thing for her . “

Song Xiangsi didn’t mince her words, turning to leave after reminding Lu Jinnian .

Lu Jinnian remained emotionless, but deep inside he was in shock .

He had actually forgotten that they were filming, he had even felt his body reacting to her . . . If it weren’t for Song Xiangsi, he would have exposed his feelings to the entire crew . . .

All these years he had hidden his feelings so well, but only now did he realize that he had been overestimating his willpower . Or rather, he didn’t have much restraint when it came to her .

Lu Jinnian shut his eyes, taking a deep breath internally, trying to suppress the frustration in his body .
