39: The experience faction has a lot of stamina

As the two drew closer, Pham Huyen My carefully felt the warmth of Li Qinghe's body.

She meticulously scrutinized Li Qinghe's features, continuously hypnotizing herself that the man in front of her was handsome, and that he was her boyfriend.

He possessed extraordinary strength, and he was also very thoughtful.

Under the acting coach's step-by-step guidance, Pham Huyen My even had Li Qinghe tightly embrace her with his strong arms.

She rested her head on Li Qinghe's chest, feeling his powerful heartbeat.

At first, Pham Huyen My felt a bit awkward; it was her first time having such intimate contact with a man in 19 years, leaving her feeling both uncomfortable and a little excited, with a slight tremor.

She could only keep convincing herself that it was fortunate she had chosen this man herself, making it easier for her to accept psychologically.

After several minutes of embracing like this, Pham Huyen My's heart suddenly skipped a beat.

A strange sensation surged through her body, and she slowly extended her hands, tightly embracing Li Qinghe's waist as well.

In that instant, she even felt that it would be wonderful to remain embraced like this forever, to hold each other until the end of time.

Pham Huyen My herself didn't even realize it, but when she looked up at Li Qinghe at that moment, her eyes were already veiled with a layer of moisture.

“Mei Jie, excellent, maintain this state, remember this feeling.”

The acting coach's voice came from the phone nearby, waking Pham Huyen My up.

She shyly extricated herself from Li Qinghe's embrace, yet felt an urge to return to it.

Fortunately, she held back, chatted with the acting coach for a while, and then hung up the video call, asking for advice on how to disengage from a character's state and techniques.

After filming the commercial, Li Qinghe could only be a regular friend.

“Mei Jie, this is the video we just shot.” Xiaoyun approached with two phones.

As a popular internet celebrity, she was accustomed to documenting her daily activities, and even more so now that she was honing her acting skills, Pham Huyen My had Xiaoyun set up two phones from different angles to film.

Now was the time to observe the changes in her state; Pham Huyen My took out her laptop and transferred the recently shot videos.

“Brother Qinghe, come and watch it together.”

Before playing the video, Pham Huyen My patted the sofa next to her and gestured for Li Qinghe to join her.

She was still consciously cultivating their intimate relationship.

After playing the video, Pham Huyen My carefully watched the process, recalling her feelings at the time from her expressions and actions, paying particular attention to her facial expressions when her inner feelings changed.

However, repeatedly replaying that feeling made Pham Huyen My feel quite conflicted; inwardly, she knew it was just an experience, but facing reality brought a sense of loss.

Meanwhile, Li Qinghe, observing the earnest attitude of the girl beside him, realized that apart from the system, many things truly couldn't be easily obtained.

For Pham Huyen My to become such a popular internet celebrity, besides her external attributes and talent, her hard work was also indispensable, which could be seen from her focus and dedication when learning in unfamiliar fields.

While appreciating Pham Huyen My's learning attitude, this also stirred Li Qinghe's ambition.

As a system-wielding cheater, there was no reason for him to be inferior to a mixed-race girl.

One day, he would turn this girl into a series in his account.

After finishing the commercial today, he would go back and brainstorm some ideas, then shoot more videos with A Ling; with more advanced photography techniques now, the visuals would definitely look more comfortable and appealing.

By the time Pham Huyen My had replayed the video several times, she already knew what her expression was like in that moment of attraction; so, this was what it felt like to secretly like someone.

Pham Huyen My gained many insights.

Xiaoyun, watching the two nestled on the sofa reviewing the video, suddenly felt a pang of jealousy.

She also wanted to participate in such an experience; a man with a handsome appearance and extraordinary actual strength was not that easy to find.

Even if she met one in real life, they usually belonged to someone else.

But she quickly brought this emotion under control.

The captivating woman on the sofa was her boss.

Everything had to prioritize serving her boss; she still wanted to keep this assistant job for a few more years.

While the three in the lounge were each lost in their thoughts, there was a knock on the door.

It turned out to be the director's assistant, who came to ask the male and female leads of the commercial to go to the set, as a new plan had been finalized.

The two quickly got up and brought Xiaoyun to the set.

After greeting the Director Li, the staff explained the new shooting plan to them, which included Li Qinghe's impressive display of strength, as well as Pham Huyen My and Li Qinghe's couple's fitness exercises.

At the very end, Pham Huyen My would be holding an energy drink and winking at the camera, while she was seated cross-legged on Li Qinghe's horizontally raised arm.

Since Pham Huyen My only needed to be beautiful and sexy in the commercial, the strenuous strength work was left to Li Qinghe, the strongman.

This showcased Pham Huyen My's beauty, and Li Qinghe's strength display in the background symbolized the power of the energy drink.

They were given half an hour for Pham Huyen My and Li Qinghe to adapt to and memorize the shooting content.

Pham Huyen My then pulled Li Qinghe to practice the couple's fitness moves and the final finishing pose.

When the shooting time arrived, Director Li started filming directly.

Thanks to the earlier practice, Li Qinghe and Pham Huyen My completed the shooting task perfectly after just two takes.

Director Li highly praised Pham Huyen My's portrayal of infatuation and dependence on her boyfriend in the commercial, believing her performance showed great potential.

Mid-shoot, a representative from the sponsor came to watch for a while and was very satisfied with the footage already shot.

This sponsor was also an open-minded person; seeing that the shooting process was smooth and the results were good, he simply left all the work to the Director Li and went off to meet his new lover for a date.

Director Li was very satisfied after watching all the filmed material behind the monitor, but to be on the safe side, he shot an extra take for some scenes as a backup.

At this point, their work was considered complete.

The shooting process seemed to fly by; when Li Qinghe checked his phone for the time, he found it was already past 8 PM.

Because they were rushing to meet the deadline, the crew didn't have time to eat the dinner prepared, and as soon as work finished, the entire studio was filled with people hastily eating.

Although the crew had saved meals for both Li Qinghe and Pham Huyen My, neither of them wanted to eat there.

“Brother Qinghe, let's go, I'll treat you to steak; there's an American steakhouse in Ba Dinh District that's incredibly delicious.”

Pham Huyen My smiled as she invited Li Qinghe out to eat, feeling that the after-effects of the experience hadn't worn off yet; it seemed the lingering feeling was quite strong.

Looking at the affectionate girl, Li Qinghe didn't stand on ceremony and readily agreed.

Li Qinghe and Pham Huyen My changed their clothes and left the studio, located in an office building, with Xiaoyun.

Pham Huyen My drove a BMW 5 Series herself and initially suggested Li Qinghe ride with her, but Li Qinghe chose to ride his motorcycle instead.

Because he planned to take Nguyen Thi Linh to buy a motorcycle tomorrow morning, he didn't want to come all the way back here to pick up his bike tomorrow.

Ba Dinh District, as the political center of Hanoi, is the most prime district in all of Hanoi, where all foreign affairs institutions, dignitaries, and wealthy individuals are primarily concentrated.

Therefore, it is Hanoi's shopping paradise, home to many of Hanoi's major fashion shopping centers.

The steakhouse Pham Huyen My mentioned was in a very new shopping center, Lotte Center; its basement floor gathered numerous restaurants and coffee shops, and although prices were slightly higher than other restaurants in Hanoi, it included many gourmet options, including Michelin-starred ones.

The assistant Xiaoyun sat next to Pham Huyen My, with Li Qinghe sitting opposite them.

As a good boss, Pham Huyen My never excluded Xiaoyun when eating out, always taking her to experience various cuisines.

However, Xiaoyun felt a bit uncomfortable today; she had met many friends with Pham Huyen My, but never before had she felt so superfluous as she did today.
