1 Chapter 1. Don't move!

Machine Translation

A big bed in a five-star hotel.

Under the bright crystal chandelier, Guan Xi was lying on the huge bed, her face covered with a black cloth.

The man that was with her was just about to make a move when he suddenly found their positions reversed. The girl was now leaning over him, pressing a gun to his head.

Smooth and swift.

"FREEZE! Police! "

The girl who had been defenseless just a moment before was now looking at the middle-aged man with cold, hard eyes.

“Move and I’ll shoot.”

... . . . . . . . .

"Cut! "

Satisfied that the scene was shot well, the director said, "Guan Xi, you're done. Xia Mei, you’re up, and make sure to get the gun placement right…”

Guan Xi got off the bed to make way for Xia Mei.

She walked to the corner, wincing as she started flexing her wrist.

Damn it.

The old man who was acting with her just now didn’t exactly have the best reputation in the industry for being careful. Just a few minutes of acting with him and he’s already hurt her wrist.

Bai Xiaomi walked over to her and exclaimed, “Xi Xi, you did so good! I was almost mesmerized by how fluid your movements were.”

“Really?”

.

“Yes, of course!” Xiaomi nodded eagerly, her eyes twinkling. “I think your acting is so much better than Xia Mei's and you're so beautiful. If you were the main character in this movie, it would definitely be a hit."

.

Bai Xiaomi might have just been buttering Guan Xi up, but what she said was all true.

Xixi was beautiful and has a wide range of skills and experience. Not only could she act, but she could also perform difficult martial arts scenes.

She has done 60% of Xia Mei’s acting and yet, she’s remained the ‘double’.

It was really unfair.

Guan Xi, however, didn’t share Bai Xiaomi’s opinion, which is why when she had the chance to appear on the screen as herself before, she didn’t take it.

Guan Xi didn’t pay a lot of attention to what Xiaomi said and instead focused on getting ready to go home, hastily changing her clothes and removing her makeup.

It was already 8:15 pm and if she doesn't hurry, she won’t make it home in time.

And if she’s late, there would be tragic consequences.

She was just about to leave to hitch a ride when Producer Xu stopped her.

"Guan Xi!"

She stopped in her tracks and smiled up at him. “What’s up, Producer Xu?”

"Are you free tonight? There's a party at this bar that I frequent in and I want you to come with me. If you do, I can make it worth your while…” Producer Xu said, gesturing suggestively.
