Chapter 16 Almost Fond of Oneself

Vincenzo's eyes turned cold, he pushed away Yoo-na hanging onto him like a water snake, and said darkly, "You guys are filming, I just happened to come in and take a look."

"Yes, yes, get Yoo-na ready and film a scene," the director shouted loudly, pulling Vincenzo to sit on the director's chair like a lackey.

She had enough photos already, Lilian hesitated whether to leave or not, but she saw Vincenzo's cold and gloomy eyes cast over.

Looking around and making sure there was no one else summoning him beside her, Lilian had no choice but to walk over and bend down to whisper in his ear, "I'm leaving first."

*This ungrateful woman.**..*

*He put down his work to pick her up, and she* *was* *just **leaving**turned and left**?!*

"Did I let say you could leave?" Vincenzo said asked coldly, reaching out and forcefully making her sit on his long legs, his warm palm rubbing vindictivelyhurtfully on her slender waist.

"Ouch..." Lilian curled up in his arms, wanting to push him away but he held her tighter.

"Do you want me to spoil you?" Vincenzo deliberately twisted her meaning, whispering ambiguouslydubiously in her ear, "This is a public place, but I'll have no problem spoiling you at home."

...

*This man's mind is never clean**, even just* *for a moment.*

Yoo-na sat on the ancient-style palace bed and stared hatefully at her. Lilian felt uncomfortable all over from the crazy jealousy in her eyes, but Vincenzo's hand continued to roam on her back as if nobody else was around.

Fingers teasingly caressed her back, but his handsome face held a stern expression, as though he was at work.

But sheShe gradually couldn't resist his teasing. Restricted by the multitude of people in the studio, Lilian could only secretly reach behind her and push away his roving hands.

Chapter 17, Almost Fond of Oneself

Just as she pushed it away, his large palm immediately touched her again...

Fortunately, just then the director called for shooting to start, and everyone's attention focused on Yoo-na.

Lilian sat on Vincenzo's lap, picking up the script next to her and reading it.

This scene was about the female protagonist, played by Yoo-na, sacrificing herself to the enemy's tyrant for the sake of her country, but her heart still longed forfor her lover from her hometown...

The man playing the king was a rugged middle-aged man. In the scene, he pinned Yoo-na down on the bed.

It seemed that Yoo-na was more excited than before when acting, perhaps because Vincenzo was present. Her moans were particularly loud, causing Lilian, as a woman, to shudder involuntarily.

"You're not acting right," Lilian murmured unconsciously, putting the script aside.

Vincenzo bit her ear and said, "Hmm, she doesn't moan as sweetly as you."

"...RogueScoundrel," Lilian muttered under her breath.

"Yoo-na, you're not acting right. You need to show the inner struggle. Although your body is being forcefully taken by the emperor, your heart is thinking about your real lover. Your eyes should..."

"Oh, this is going to be interesting! It's not enough to just moan loudly in bed!" The director couldn't help but stand up and shout cut...

"Why am I out of the scene?!" Yoo-na pushed the man off of her, dissatisfied and sat up on the bed, excitedly retorting, "It's not my fault if you can't capture the intensity I'm supposed to act! It's not my problem!"

She couldn't act out that kind of inner turmoil herself, and yet she blamed others for not capturing it.

The leading actress...

Just that much?

"You..." The director couldn't curse openly because Vincenzo was present, so he could only say, "Everyone, let's prepare for another take."

In the shot, Yoo-na was once again overwhelmed on the bed, still panting and looking alluring.

"Cut! Not good-"

"Cut! Let's do it again!"

"Cut, cut, cut! Yoo-na, I said it's not just about being loud! We're not shooting a pornographic film!"

...

The director called cut over and over again, and Yoo-na's face became more and more displeased as she was repeatedly pushed onto the bed by the man touching her.

Lilian watched quietly, and when Yoo-na's gaze shifted towards the camera, she suddenlyunexpectedly tilted her head and kissed Vincenzo's eye, lingering for a while without letting go.

Everyone saw it, and silence fell all around.

Vincenzo's eyes darkened, and he lowered his head to kiss her lips, but Lilian quickly turned her face away, denying him.

She didn't forget that his lips had just passionately kissed Yoo-na, which disgusted her.

She didn't forget that his lips had just passionately kissed Yoo-na, which disgusted her.

Yoo-na lost her voice, her eyes widened suddenly. The director didn't call cut, and she couldn't do anything. Her beautiful eyes were filled with both sorrow and jealousy...

But what appeared on the screen was Yoo-na's struggling and conflicted appearance.

Although it deviated somewhat from the script, it was still Yoo-na's best performance of the day.

"Cut! It's a wrap!" The director excitedly called cut, then turned to Lilian and gave her a thumbs up, admiringly saying, "LilianMiss, you're very clever."

*Using jealousy to get Yoo-na into the scene.*

*Otherwise, with Yoo-na's current state, who knows how long it would **have **take**n* *to finish filming th**is**e* *scene.*

"It's nothing." Lilian politely smiled and indulged herself in the thrill of directing for a moment. She knew she wouldn't have a chance to fulfill her dream of becoming a director in this lifetime, so she might as well enjoy it while she could.

Vincenzo naturally understood what was going on and his face turned ice-cold. He pushed Lilian away and walked out, his back emanating a chilling aura.

The crowd was in an uproar, and Yoo-na anxiously tried to follow him but was stopped by her assistant.

*Did she provoke him again?*

Watching Vincenzo's departing figure, Lilian felt helpless. She bid farewell to the director in a low voice and then firmly held onto her camera as she chased after him.

After Vincenzo got into the sports car, he slammed the door shut heavily, his voice booming.

Lilian bit her lip, got into the backseat of the car behind him, and innocently asked, "What's wrong with you?"

*How dare she ask what's wrong?*

*When did Vincenzo become someone she could use?*

He kissed Yoo-na in front of her, and yet she still went to help Yoo-na.

"Are you getting into character? Does this woman even know that he is her man?!"

"Get out." Vincenzo growled lowly, his fist pounding on the windshield, his face dark.

"Oh."

Lilian opened the car door, ready to get out, but Vincenzo's sinister voice sounded from behind her,

"I Ddare you to get out of this car and then try to guess what happens next!"

...

*Should she get out of the car or not?! *

*Does this man dare to be more contradictory?! Dare to be more unpredictable?! *

Lilian maintained the posture of pushing the car door but didn't actually get out, she didn't want to provoke Vincenzo.

Looking at Vincenzo's cold profile, he didn't say anything and she didn't know what to say either. The two of them remained in this deadlock.

The air inside the car was oppressive and suffocating.

She really didn't understand why he was so angry. She helped his female star get into character and didn't get a single word of thanks, and he gave her a scowl.

*Did she owe him something?! *
