Chapter 607: This Is the Life

“Ahem, Panpan, isn’t that a bit… much?”

Reba was too embarrassed to say it aloud, feeling that using *that* part was a little strange.

‘And it’s definitely going to hurt a lot!’

“Oh, it won’t! If you don’t believe me, ask Qianqian and Shiwen. It feels great.”

Gu Pan lied through her teeth.

“Besides, I’ve already done it. What are you afraid of?”

“But…”

Reba was clearly still holding out hope she could get out of it.

“The filming schedule is so tight. If I… do that, I definitely won’t be able to act.”

“That’s easy. I’ll have my honey give the crew a day off. You’ll have time to recover properly. The first time is always the hardest, but you’ll get used to it and start to enjoy it!”

This time, Gu Pan wasn’t just tricking Reba; it really was a different kind of pleasure.

“I’ll… think about it.”

Reba had a feeling Gu Pan was up to no good, but she couldn’t bring herself to refuse her directly.

“Reba, don’t you see me as a sister anymore?”

Gu Pan immediately pouted, looking aggrieved. She was a total drama queen.

“Of course not! Of course we’re good sisters.”

Seeing Gu Pan’s “agree or our friendship is over” expression, Reba asked hesitantly.

“It really won’t hurt?”

“It’s just like when he… took you for the first time. Does that still hurt?”

Gu Pan’s words were so blunt that Reba blushed in embarrassment.

“Oh, okay. That’s good then.”

Reba thought about how someone as beautiful as Gu Pan still went to such lengths to please Qi Sheng.

Her own looks and figure weren’t as good as Gu Pan’s to begin with.

And she hadn’t been with Qi Sheng for very long. She really should be more proactive.

“Then… can you help me tonight? I don’t really know what to do.”

Reba finally gave in.

“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely help you get everything ready. Besides, Qianqian and Shiwen will be there too. Those two are very experienced.”

Seeing Reba agree, Gu Pan clapped a hand to her chest in delight.

“Mhm, we’ll help you!”

Tang Qian and Liu Shiwen caught Gu Pan’s signal and chimed in cooperatively.

“Thanks~”

Reba thanked them shyly, completely unaware that her three “sisters” were setting her up.

Just then, Qi Sheng walked over and saw them huddled together, whispering secretively.

“What are you all talking about?”

Qi Sheng asked with a smile.

“You’re in for a treat. Give the film crew a day off tomorrow.”

Gu Pan shot Qi Sheng a flirtatious eye-roll, her meaning perfectly clear.

“Ahem. The crew has been filming for a long time. They do deserve a break to rest and recuperate.”

Qi Sheng cleared his throat and called over Guo Hu.

“Give everyone the day off tomorrow. It’s important to balance work and rest.”

“Understood, Boss.”

Guo Hu would never question Qi Sheng’s decision. He turned and went to make the announcement.

A short while later, cheers erupted from the film set.

No one could refuse the joy of a paid day off.

But Qi Sheng was definitely a hundred times happier than any of them.

…

「Park Hyatt Hotel.」

Usually, after wrapping up for the day, Reba would take her van back here to rest.

As the biggest star on set, she had a suite reserved for her for the duration of the shoot.

But a regular suite was nothing compared to the presidential suite.

In terms of size alone, the presidential suite was seven or eight times larger.

Qi Sheng had booked a presidential suite for 38,000 a night.

With the 15% service charge, it came out to just over 40,000.

Pocket change.

Qi Sheng ordered dinner and added two bottles of red wine.

When Reba emerged from the room, her delicate earlobes were still flushed with a shy, lingering crimson.

Tang Qian had brought such a complete set of “tools” that Reba was starting to feel a little afraid of what the night would bring.

But she had already agreed.

Backing out now would surely displease Qi Sheng.

Reba could only pray that it would be just as painless as Gu Pan had claimed.

Qi Sheng, Gu Pan, and the others thoroughly enjoyed the authentic Jiangsu-Zhejiang cuisine.

Only Reba was distracted the whole time, with no appetite at all.

After the butler and his staff came in to clear the messy table,

Qi Sheng gave Gu Pan a look, and she pulled Reba into the master bedroom’s bathroom.

As the sound of running water went SPLASH, Qi Sheng found it truly difficult to suppress the smile on his face.

Gu Pan and the others might be teasing each other, but he was the one who reaped all the rewards in the end.

‘Sigh, why must women make things so difficult for other women?’

Qi Sheng sighed with mock sentimentality, but in his heart, he gave Gu Pan a million likes.

…

In the master bedroom, Reba was wrapped in a white bath towel.

Her exquisite and lovely face, with its exotic charm, was as smooth as a peeled boiled egg.

Fair and tender, she didn’t look at all like she was almost 30.

‘Could ordinary cosmetics even compare to the system’s methods?’

Qi Sheng gulped shamelessly. He had to give major props to Elder Zuo.

If the old man hadn’t reconquered the Western Regions, what a tremendous loss it would have been.

“Honey~”

Reba, being from an ethnic minority, was all the more proactive once she had steeled her resolve. She began to tease Qi Sheng, offering him a sweet, passionate kiss.

As their passion intensified, Reba’s fair, delicate body was pressed into a graceful arc.

Gu Pan and the others were in another bedroom, tacitly giving Reba and Qi Sheng space to be alone.

“It hurts so much! Panpan lied to me~”

Reba looked at Qi Sheng with teary eyes, feeling terribly wronged.

And to think she had trusted Gu Pan so much. It was nowhere near as easy as she had made it sound.

“It’ll stop hurting soon.”

Qi Sheng demonstrated his masterful skills, and Reba couldn’t help but begin to match his rhythm.

“Hah…”

After finishing, Qi Sheng cradled Reba, her beautiful back slick with fragrant sweat.

‘Women from the ethnic minorities are really something else.’

‘If this were Gu Pan, she would have been calling for reinforcements from next door long ago.’

But Reba had somehow managed to endure it all by herself, which even left Qi Sheng a little impressed.

Although it was a bit quicker than usual, it had still been an hour and a half.

Qi Sheng held Reba and whispered sweet nothings in her ear for a long time.

Reba was coaxed into smiles, snuggling happily in her boyfriend’s arms.

Ever since she moved to Universal Entertainment, Reba had finally understood what true happiness felt like.

She could film when she wanted to and just be a slacker when she didn’t.

It was nothing like before at Jiahang, where she was treated as a cash cow, and they wished she could be running from one engagement to another 24 hours a day.

In terms of film and television resources, she had been given two S-Level female-led dramas, each with a net investment of over 250 million.

Her commercial resources were just as amazing.

Although she had lost the global ambassador role for Dior’s makeup and fragrance lines, Qi Sheng had given her the global ambassador title for Chloé.

And this was as an ambassador for their entire product line.

Unlike the stingy Dior, which was only willing to give her the makeup and fragrance business lines.

In addition, he had also given her the global ambassadorship for Van Cleef & Arpels.

With two top-tier luxury endorsements in hand, Reba was bubbling with joy just thinking about it.

What’s more, she was also one of the “lady bosses” of Misha.

Every time she attended an event, the design directors of major brands would personally create a gown for her.

Without Qi Sheng, she couldn’t even dream of receiving this kind of treatment.

At this thought, Reba slithered under the covers like a beautiful serpent.

Moving up and down, she made a tent with the blanket.

Qi Sheng let out a long sigh, slightly regretting that he hadn’t brought a cigar in with him.

In a situation like this, smoking a cigar would be an unparalleled pleasure.

“So hot~”

Reba popped out from under the covers, revealing a flushed, exquisite face.

She shot Qi Sheng a coquettish glance and continued her diligent work.

“Well, well, Reba, still sneaking a treat!”

Gu Pan and the others had thought they were finished over here.

They hadn’t expected to walk in on such a titillating scene.

“Reba has been working so hard for so long. As her good sisters, shouldn’t you share the burden?”

Qi Sheng said suggestively.

Tang Qian thoughtfully brought in a cigar, cut it for him, lit it, and placed it at his lips.

“Good girl. I’ll reward you later.”

Qi Sheng patted Tang Qian’s head in satisfaction.

“Mwah! Thank you, Honey~”

Tang Qian happily knelt beside Reba, pulling Liu Shiwen down with her.

“Pervert,”

Gu Pan muttered under her breath.

But one look from Qi Sheng was all it took for her to obediently kneel beside them as well.

Qi Sheng smoked his cigar, exhaling blue smoke.

The indistinct figures of the four women were enough to make any man’s heart pound.

Smoke the most expensive cigars, drink the most expensive wine, and sleep with the most beautiful women.

‘Tsk, tsk. Now *this* is the life!’
