Why Does the Seductive Film Queen Keep Flirting with Me? - Chapter 48

Tang Wangyue had the strange feeling that she was dating Yun Chuxian, even though they hadn’t actually reached that stage yet.

That day, Yun Chuxian had arranged for her to rest in the RV, and the two had ended up kissing.

Tang Wangyue could feel Yun Chuxian teasing her, her advances relentless. Yun Chuxian kissed her lips, always maintaining the upper hand.

It wasn’t that Tang Wangyue didn’t want to take the lead whenever she tried to initiate a kiss, Yun Chuxian would deftly evade her.

Yun Chuxian held Tang Wangyue by the nape of her neck, preventing her from exerting any force or taking control.

Tang Wangyue was also worried that moving too much might cause the woman on her lap to fall.

They had finally achieved this rare intimacy, and she couldn’t bear to end it.

But the power remained entirely with Yun Chuxian. Whether the kiss deepened or retreated depended solely on her.

Suddenly, Yun Chuxian pulled back, her gaze lingering on Tang Wangyue’s slightly reddened lips before leaning in to bite them.

This act ignited something within Tang Wangyue.

She had been passively accepting the kisses, with no intention of resisting, but Yun Chuxian’s bite changed everything.

The metallic taste of bl00d spread through her mouth, sending a jolt through Tang Wangyue’s scalp. She abruptly sat up, seizing the initiative. One hand gripped Yun Chuxian’s waist, while the other intertwined their fingers.

Yun Chuxian’s hands were restrained as Tang Wangyue’s kiss drove her backward.

Her body seemed on the verge of collapsing, but Tang Wangyue steadied her, holding them in that position for a long moment.

Restricted by their posture, Tang Wangyue’s hands were pinned, unable to do anything else. As their breathing reached its peak, she reluctantly released Yun Chuxian.

Yun Chuxian immediately straightened up, swaying slightly. In frustration, she tilted her head and bit Tang Wangyue’s ear, then quickly grabbed her phone to check it.

She sighed in relief. Good, no swelling. If it had swollen, it would have affected the afternoon’s filming.

Tang Wangyue, realizing the same thing, chuckled dryly, eyeing Yun Chuxian’s lips. It’s fine for you, but I’m in trouble.

Yun Chuxian’s lips were only slightly reddened, the color fading quickly. Still, the obvious mark on her lips would be hard to miss—a clear sign of being bitten.

Who else could have bitten her lips?

This afternoon, you’re not getting out of the car, Yun Chuxian warned.

Yun Chuxian hummed softly, tugging Tang Wangyue’s hand toward the bed. She reached out to undress her.

What are you doing? Tang Wangyue asked.

Sleeping, Yun Chuxian replied, flicking her forehead. Unless you’d rather do that?

Not that I’d mind.

Tang Wangyue didn’t dare voice her thoughts. Yun Chuxian still had filming scheduled for the afternoon, and the RV was surrounded by people. Even though there were fewer people near Yun Chuxian’s RV, Tang Wangyue couldn’t bring herself to cross that mental barrier.

Intimacy was fine, but taking things further inside the RV was out of the question.

Tang Wangyue felt that if they were going to do anything, it would be better to wait until they returned to the hotel.

However, once they were back at the hotel, Yun Chuxian refused to come out. Tang Wangyue struggled to find excuses to see her, conjuring up various reasons.

First, she claimed to have run out of body wash, then face cleanser, repeatedly asking to borrow some.

Each time she asked, Yun Chuxian readily lent her what she needed.

When Tang Wangyue returned the items, she lingered, hoping to stay, but was always met with a closed door.

On one occasion, before she could even speak, Yun Chuxian snatched the item and slammed the door shut, so quickly that Tang Wangyue didn’t have time to react.

It was as if Yun Chuxian had become a completely different person from the one she’d been during the day. Now, even with excuses, Tang Wangyue couldn’t get into her room.

Before, when Tang Wangyue had refused to come, Yun Chuxian had always found ways to coax her in.

Little did Tang Wangyue know, Yun Chuxian was simply embarrassed. Since they’d met, she had always been the one taking the initiative. But when Tang Wangyue suddenly took the lead, Yun Chuxian found herself utterly defenseless.

It was as if Tang Wangyue’s slightest provocation made her extraordinarily sensitive, her breath quickening, her legs trembling.

Yun Chuxian had overestimated her resistance to Tang Wangyue. She had no resistance at all, and had been completely overwhelmed by Tang Wangyue’s counterattack.

Seeing Tang Wangyue reminded Yun Chuxian of her own lack of self-control. Could she admit she was addicted to Tang Wangyue’s passionate kisses?

However, before their relationship could even begin, public opinion intervened.

An insider leaked that Yun Chuxian was dating a screenwriter on set, providing detailed accounts and even photos.

The article claimed that a screenwriter named Tang frequently visited Yun Chuxian’s trailer, staying for over half an hour at a time, and sometimes even an entire day. It questioned what circumstances would require a screenwriter to stay that long.

Furthermore, the article noted that Screenwriter Tang would watch Yun Chuxian film her scenes, but was nowhere to be seen when others were filming. It also alleged that Screenwriter Tang was the primary force behind the demonically modified script for the popular drama The Eldest Princess.

Two hashtags quickly went viral

YunChuxianDatingScreenwriterTang

ScreenwriterTangDemonicallyModifyingHitIPTheEldestPrincess

Yun Chuxian’s fans were furious about both hashtags, unleashing a torrent of abuse against Tang Wangyue.

Gossip-hungry netizens, unfamiliar with any screenwriter named Tang, joined the fray, criticizing Tang Wangyue for daring to date Yun Chuxian.

Original fans of the novel The Eldest Princess were even more incensed, condemning Tang Wangyue for demonically modifying their beloved IP. To them, such alterations were an unforgivable sin, deserving of scorn for both the screenwriter and director.

Sun Ran had a solid reputation, and Yun Chuxian’s was impeccable. Over the years, they had consistently delivered high-quality work with minimal scandals. Even when rumors surfaced, they were clearly fabricated by others. Known for their professional competence, lack of scandals, avoidance of hype, and representative works, the question became who should be blamed? The answer was obvious Tang Wangyue.

Thus, three factions united to condemn Tang Wangyue.

Soon, someone uncovered Tang Wangyue’s full name and gender.

Wait, am I seeing this right? Screenwriter Tang is a woman?

Could this be a mistake? Or is Yun Chuxian gay?

What’s wrong with being gay? Regardless, Tang Wangyue’s demonically modified script is unforgivable. She deserves all the hate.

The demonically modified script is just a rumor. It might not even be true. Besides, Yun Chuxian is involved.

If they’re dating and Yun Chuxian is lovesick, what does it matter if Tang Wangyue rewrites the script?

Have you guys seen the leaked demonically modified script? It’s practically unrecognizable from the original novel. If they actually film this garbage, it’ll be a disaster.

Teacher Jianghu Zhaiyue, how heartbreaking must it be to see your masterpiece butchered like this?

It’s useless to tag her. She sold the rights. What can she do? Just curse Tang Wangyue.

Thus, Tang Wangyue, a minor screenwriter, became the target of a nationwide online backlash. She only learned about it while scrolling through videos.

Many marketing accounts were reviewing the upcoming demonically modified adaptation of  The Eldest Princess , starring Yun Chuxian.

 The Eldest Princess  had been demonically modified? How had she not known? If she hadn’t heard that Yun Chuxian was starring, Tang Wangyue wouldn’t have believed this was about the  Eldest Princess  they were currently filming.

The internet was truly omnipotent, even obtaining the script.

After reading the leaked script, Tang Wangyue could tell the person who rewrote it had put considerable effort into it. Otherwise, they couldn’t have come up with such an absurd plot.

These developments didn’t bother her much. What was truly awkward was the rumor that she and Yun Chuxian were dating.

Although they weren’t officially dating yet, they were close—at least in a state of ambiguous intimacy.

Not dating, but almost dating—that made her feel a little guilty.

One day, Mo Lai approached her, stammering, Have you… been online lately?

Tang Wangyue couldn’t help but laugh. You’re not going to ask me about the nationwide online backlash, are you?

Lately, everyone had been giving her strange looks, but no one dared to say anything.

These topics had been trending for days, showing no signs of fading. Instead, they seemed to be escalating, as if someone were deliberately fueling the flames.

Mo Lai nodded. The situation has blown up so much, there must be someone pulling the strings behind the scenes. Without a professional PR team, things could get very messy.

Your aunt even called me, worried about how this might affect you. She didn’t dare contact you directly.

Tang Wangyue’s mother only knew she was at home writing scripts and submitting them, unaware that none of her scripts had actually sold.

Tang Wangyue didn’t want to go into detail with her mother. In her mother’s mind, her daughter’s profession was to be a screenwriter, whether working for a company or writing independently. Either way, her education wouldn’t have been wasted.

Especially since her deadbeat father’s relatives had been harassing her mother less frequently since learning she was unemployed.

They probably figured they couldn’t squeeze any money out of her and gave up.

Besides, her deadbeat father had drunk himself to death years ago, so his relatives had no way of finding her.

Even if her grandparents were still alive, they had their own children and grandchildren. She, as a granddaughter they’d lost contact with long ago, might as well be a stranger to them. They might only know her name, not even her face.

A few years ago, when her cousin learned Tang Wangyue had graduated from university and tried to mooch off her, Tang Wangyue never even met him her mother had already sent him packing.

Tang Wangyue didn’t bother explaining much to her mother, partly to avoid worrying her. The older generation often struggles to understand the concept of freelance work.

Her mother was the same, always bearing her burdens alone and shielding Tang Wangyue from her troubles. Tang Wangyue, in turn, only shared good news, never bad.

After all, they were mother and daughter.

Hearing her mother’s concern, Tang Wangyue dropped her playful tone. I thought this would blow over in a couple of days, but it looks like it’s not going to end so easily.

Why don’t you reach out to Yun Chuxian? After all, she’s involved in this too.

Mo Lai reasoned that professional matters should be handled by professionals. Yun Chuxian had a dedicated PR team, making this a relatively simple matter for her.

Tang Wangyue also wondered why Yun Chuxian’s side remained silent, and why the production crew hadn’t taken any action.

I’ll contact the director first, then Ye Lingxi.

Tang Wangyue decided she didn’t want to involve Yun Chuxian unless absolutely necessary.

Mo Lai raised an eyebrow. That makes sense. This online mess isn’t just about you it affects the entire drama. The production crew needs to step up—or at least get the investors involved. Anything’s better than letting it all fall on your shoulders.

While Mo Lai’s words were logical, Tang Wangyue sensed the online frenzy had taken a darker turn. Though seemingly targeting her, the real target was Yun Chuxian, and by extension, the entire production crew. This was no simple misunderstanding.

Perhaps Yun Chuxian knew something she wasn’t revealing, which explained her continued silence.

At worst, I could just reveal myself as Jianghu Zhaiyue, Tang Wangyue thought. That would at least resolve the Demonically Modified Script issue.

But then it would just be her and Yun Chuxian’s scandal left to deal with. The production crew would escape unscathed, while she’d be half-submerged, and Yun Chuxian would be completely drowned.

To resolve this, the production crew couldn’t remain bystanders. Otherwise, it would all become a matter between her and Yun Chuxian.

Screenwriter Tang, my boss is looking for you, Bai Yu called out, stopping Tang Wangyue just as she was about to retreat to her room.

Tang Wangyue exchanged a glance with Mo Lai, who discreetly left. She stepped forward and asked, What does Teacher Yun want?

Bai Yu lowered her gaze, her voice tinged with resignation. She probably wants to ask if you two are planning to go public.

Go public? They hadn’t even discussed it yet. What was there to go public about?
