After feeling Chen Jincheng’s chest muscles, Li Muchen’s pretty face quickly flushed with shyness.
’Am I being taken advantage of here?’
’And why am I even paying attention to his pecs?’
’The friction between my back and his chest... So mortifying!’
"Mr. Chen, I’m done stretching. I’d like to get down now." Li Muchen found the position far too intimate and quickly spoke up.
The contact during the stretch made her body tense up in a strange way, leaving her feeling a bit weak.
Chen Jincheng chuckled and released her hands.
Li Muchen hurried off the stretching machine, finally letting out a sigh of relief.
But then Chen Jincheng took out a pack of tissues, pulled one out, and reached over to her sweaty forehead to wipe it for her.
"???" Li Muchen froze. She had never imagined that even after getting off the machine, he would do sothing so intimate. For a mont, she didn’t know how to react, and soon a blush of embarrassnt crept onto her cheeks.
’What is he doing all of a sudden? What does he want!’
Faced with this inexplicable situation, she was panicking inside.
Seeing Chen Jincheng toss the tissue into the trash, she did her best to take a deep breath and seized the chance to ask, "Mr. Chen, do you think I’m suited for making story-driven videos?"
’He’s already been so intimate with . If I ask him now, surely he’ll agree, right?’
Chen Jincheng finally smiled. "Miss Li, you’ve finally said it. I thought you were going to keep holding back."
"???" Li Muchen stared blankly, then it dawned on her. "Mr. Chen, you knew why I was being so friendly all along? So you’ve just been teasing these past few days?"
"Can’t have my workouts with a beautiful woman be too boring," Chen Jincheng admitted freely.
His words made her sigh. ’Just as I thought.’
"Mr. Chen, in that case, do you think I’m suited for making story-driven videos? I truly want to join Second-Life Star."
"Aren’t I already helping you film a promotional video?"
"???" Li Muchen was visibly stunned.
’When did he film anything?’
Right on cue, Xing ca over and handed a cara to Chen Jincheng. There was only one video on it, showing the scene from monts ago: Chen Jincheng behind Li Muchen, guiding her stretches, and then intimately wiping the sweat from her brow with a tissue.
Chen Jincheng played the video and held the cara out for Li Muchen. "Miss Li, have a look. How’s this hype video I shot for you?"
Li Muchen instinctively looked at the video. She saw Chen Jincheng walking up to her, moving behind her, then intimately taking her hands and guiding her through the stretch on the machine.
And at that key mont, the video even cut to a close-up of her back brushing against Chen Jincheng’s chest.
The video ended with the scene of Chen Jincheng taking out a tissue and wiping her sweat.
For so reason, as she watched the video, she felt not only a sense of shyness but also an air of sweet intimacy between a man and a woman, especially during the close-up of her back against his chest.
Chen Jincheng explained with a smile, "We’ll set the video to so rather suggestive music. The opening shot of walking toward you and the close-up of our back-to-chest friction will be in slow motion. We’ll also add heart effects and a pink filter to the screen when I’m wiping your sweat. The main selling point is intimacy."
As Li Muchen listened to his description, she could already picture it in her head.
’This twists the whole thing into sothing else entirely... It’s completely divorced from reality...’
’A video clip to start, and the story is all in the edit?’
However, she also understood. He was planning for her to debut as a Miss Cheng. After all, there was already buzz online about him coming to the gym just for the girls there. With a little hype now, it would be easy to get a lot of attention.
’In other words, I misunderstood him just now. He wasn’t actually taking advantage of .’
’But he didn’t tell beforehand. It’s no wonder I thought that.’
’Still, I feel a little bad for misjudging him.’
Chen Jincheng took back the cara and said with a smile, "Miss Li, go find Sister Hong and sign the contract. I’ve left your script with her as well. Study it carefully; we can start filming tomorrow. This video will generate so advance buzz for you, so people will be paying attention the mont your story-driven video drops."
Li Muchen was taken aback by his words.
’Not only was the script ready for , but he’d even arranged the promotional hype video?’
’In other words, he had everything planned out for from the very beginning. All these days I spent working out with him, looking so conflicted... I must have been his personal entertainnt, right?’
But for so reason, the fact that he had everything planned out for her, even to the point of her becoming his entertainnt, didn’t make her angry. In fact, she felt a little thrilled.
’He even has a script ready. How could I not be happy about that?’
’Other people would kill for an opportunity like this, wouldn’t they?’
"Mr. Chen... Boss, I’ll go find Sister Hong now," Li Muchen said, promptly changing her form of address.
Chen Jincheng nodded and handed the cara to Xing. "Give this video to Xiaoliao. Have him edit it as I instructed, then post it from the lifestyle account. Get Yijin’s clip accounts to share it too. Today we need to get Li Muchen, this Miss Xin Cheng, trending."
"Understood." Xing nodded, then turned to Li Muchen with an invitation. "Mu Chen, shall we go down together?"
As a classic "green tea girl," even knowing this Miss Xin Cheng would soon be a competitor, she extended the invitation with a beaming smile.
’The first rule of the ’tea arts’ was to always appear harmonious in front of the boss. Besides, what’s done is done. It was far better to be on good terms with the other girls around the boss than to have a bad relationship.’
