My lord, hold me tight! (Quick Transmigration)

-

The graceful woman's light red skirt swept across the grass, and as she turned and swayed, her clothes brushed against the exquisitely beautiful flowers.

Her exquisitely made-up face revealed a captivating beauty, and her graceful movements exuded the air of a noblewoman. If it weren't for the arrogance in her eyes that somewhat marred her beauty, she would likely be even more stunning.

"Miss, I heard that the Empress Dowager is going to select a concubine for the Ninth Prince. This time, the Empress Dowager summoned you, and she probably has your eye on you..." The pretty maid behind the girl in the light red dress stepped forward and whispered.

The girl's eyes lit up, revealing a blend of girlish innocence and womanly charm. She lowered her head slightly, her cheeks flushed, like blooming red flowers, making her even more exquisite and breathtakingly beautiful. The joy in her eyes sparkled brightly, and even the maid beside her couldn't help but be stunned, marveling that her young mistress was indeed the most beautiful woman in the capital, her stunning beauty was no exaggeration.

"Really?" The girl's voice was clear and melodious, rising slightly as the expectation in her tone added a touch of charm.

"Of course!" the maid replied with a fawning smile.

The girl gazed into the distant void, her pretty face flushed with spring, a seductive glint in her eyes, and a hint of almost frenzied infatuation in her gaze. She murmured, "Ninth Prince..."

She lowered her head slightly, the light in her eyes obscured by a few strands of hair, and murmured enigmatically, "You belong to Wan'er... no one can take you away..."

The sound dissipated in the wind, and the maid behind her could only hear some fragmented words.

As if remembering something, the girl smiled shyly, the gloom and darkness of the moment vanished, and she left the place with her head held high and graceful. The joyful smile on her lips made her face even more beautiful.

“C!” The monitor froze on a close-up of Qi Nuan’s enlarged face.

Director Zhang nodded in satisfaction; this was exactly the feeling he wanted!

Mu Wan'er, the only daughter of Prime Minister Mu, was pampered and spoiled from a young age. She was arrogant and domineering, and possessed amazing talent and beauty. She was known as the most beautiful woman in the capital. Qi Nuan perfectly portrayed her.

He glanced at Qi Nuan again, slightly disappointed. How could someone criticize such acting skills as "no acting skills"? It seems these media outlets have become increasingly adept at making things up; even a perfectly good girl can be portrayed in such a way!

The staff who had initially questioned Qi Nuan's acting skills and were ready to see how Director Zhang would scold her changed their gaze towards her. They were surprised that she performed so brilliantly in her first audition, which was truly amazing.

However, some people still scoffed, believing that she was just playing herself, which is why she portrayed the character so well.

"Qi Nuan, not bad!" Director Zhang praised, knowing that this "famous director" rarely praised stars on set.

"Hmph... Sister Hao, it's so hot, so hot!" After the scene was finished, upon hearing Director Zhang's praise, Qi Nuan merely glanced at him haughtily, then her reserved and beautiful smile vanished instantly, and she frowned and grumbled impatiently, displaying the full airs of a young lady.

Director Zhang was ignored by her. He touched his nose to hide his embarrassment, but he wasn't angry at all. Instead, he thought the girl was straightforward and cute. If it were any other actor, they would probably have said some polite words to him, but she accepted them directly without the slightest bit of embarrassment.

Sister Hao and Qi Nuan's assistants were stunned. Who would have thought that this girl would have such a brilliant acting performance and even receive praise from Director Zhang?

Upon seeing her again, she reverted to her true colors. Sister Hao's face stiffened for a moment before she immediately moved closer to Director Zhang: "Director Zhang, our Xiao Nuan has a rather straightforward personality, please don't take it too personally!"

"Haha, of course not, I think this girl has a very cute personality!" Director Zhang said with a smile.

The two of them managed to ease the awkwardness from the previous exchange.

Qi Nuan, wrapped in layers of exquisite ancient costume, and with the weather truly scorching, saw Sister Hao and Director Zhang chatting happily. She pursed her lips, passed by the staff members who were giving her strange looks, and left alone to go to the lounge to change clothes.

Just as Qi Nuan's hand was about to touch the doorknob, a clear male voice that was captivating suddenly came from the lounge not far away. Even just a soft humming sound could immerse one in his wonderful musical world.

"Clap clap clap!" Qi Nuan pushed open the door at some point and leaned against it, clapping her hands.

Qi Nuan walked straight in, ignoring the slightly confused look in the other person's eyes. She went directly to the air conditioner, felt the coolness, sighed, and said, "Qin Zhihuai, you sing so well!"

Qin Zhihuai listened to her simple and unpretentious praise, then raised his melancholy and clear eyes to look at her.

She was dressed in ancient costume and looked like an actress who had just come off the set.

In Qin Zhihuai's world, everything revolves around music. In his eyes, the only standards for a person's appearance are good-looking and bad-looking. Clearly, the ancient beauty in front of him belongs to the good-looking category.

"Who are you?" he asked, his voice clear and pleasant without a trace of impurity, no less beautiful and melodious than his singing.

"I am Qi Nuan..." Qi Nuan had been enjoying the air conditioning for a while and felt refreshed all over. She turned around to answer the other person's question.

Qin Zhihuai thought for a moment; he didn't recognize him.

When Qi Nuan met Qin Zhihuai's gaze, she said, "Qin Zhihuai, you are really handsome!"

Qin Zhihuai was taken aback, not expecting her sudden words. Qi Nuan stared at him, her eyes filled with undisguised amazement.

The original owner hadn't paid much attention to him before, and had only seen Qin Zhihuai's posters and photos. She didn't expect him to be even more handsome in person, and was stunned for a moment.

His blue and white ancient costume and half-tied-up long hair accentuated his elegant and refined temperament, making him look like a noble young master from ancient times without any sense of incongruity.

His melancholy gaze was captivating, his clear pupils as pure as ever. When he looked up at you as if nothing had happened, Qi Nuan's thoughts at that moment could be described as breathtaking.

She didn't realize how much of a dazed look she gave him. Staring at him with wide, blank eyes, Qin Zhihuai found this woman strange. It wasn't that no one had ever stared at him in a daze before, but she was the first to be so blatant and unabashed in her gaze.

"Huai, are you ready? We'll be right there..." Qin Zhihuai's agent, Meng Hao, walked in and asked.

He saw another person in the lounge, none other than Qi Nuan, who had just overturned everyone's expectations.

"Miss Qi, what are you doing here?" Meng Hao asked, puzzled.

Qi Nuan ignored him and turned her head to continue enjoying the air conditioning. She only recognized Qin Zhihuai.

"..." Meng Hao was a little embarrassed and looked at Qin Zhihuai.

"Let's go." Qin Zhihuai got up and walked towards the door, with Meng Hao following behind.

Seeing his movement, Qi Nuan immediately followed, taking three steps at a time to get behind Qin Zhihuai.

Qin Zhihuai looked at her.

"Miss Qi, what's going on?" Meng Hao asked again.

“I’m going to the film set too,” Qi Nuan replied, glancing at him.

"But..." There are no more scenes for her.

"Hurry up, hurry up, isn't it in a big hurry?" Qi Nuan was getting impatient.

Meng Hao had learned from many people in the industry that she had a bad temper, so in order to avoid trouble when they worked together on the same set in the future, he accommodated her and let her go with them.

After exchanging pleasantries with Director Zhang, Sister Hao discovered that Qi Nuan had already disappeared. She quickly sent out a group of assistants to search for her, praying that this young lady wouldn't cause her any more trouble.

Just as her assistants returned one by one to report that they hadn't found it and were as anxious as ants on a hot pan, Qi Nuan suddenly appeared in her sight.

"Oh dear! Where have you gone, my little darling?" Sister Hao asked worriedly.

"It's so hot, of course I'll go to the lounge," Qi Nuan replied simply.

Sister Hao wanted to say something more, but suddenly noticed Qin Zhihuai next to Qi Nuan. Her eyes lit up. He was a very popular soul singer right now, and he had many fans even in the industry!

When Qin Zhihuai saw Qi Nuan's agent appear, he nodded to her and walked towards Director Zhang.

Meng Hao smiled politely at Sister Hao and followed her.

Sister Hao asked, "Nuan Nuan, when did you meet Qin Zhihuai?"

"Just now... Sister Hao, I think... I've fallen for him..." Qi Nuan said suddenly, her cheeks slightly flushed as she looked at Qin Zhihuai's back.

Sister Hao was completely confused; she couldn't understand what she was saying.

Qin Zhihuai likes Qi Nuan?

"Nuan Nuan..." Sister Hao was shocked and called out, but Qi Nuan had already walked away towards Qin Zhihuai.

Qi Nuanhao sat down next to Director Zhang without any hesitation, and stared intently at the man on the monitor.

Director Zhang glanced at Qi Nuan and saw that she was staring intently at Qin Zhihuai. As a veteran in the entertainment industry, he understood and let her be.

Qin Zhihuai plays the second male lead, the Ninth Prince Chunyu Xiu, who is aloof and otherworldly, with outstanding looks and known as the most handsome man in the capital. His indifferent nature, handsome appearance, and illustrious princely background make him a "divine" figure that women in the capital can only admire from afar.

Qi Nuan looked at Qin Zhihuai, who simply stood there quietly, effortlessly conveying the character's personality without any acting effort.

Director Zhang truly lives up to his reputation as a "renowned director." The moment he saw Qin Zhihuai, he knew he was perfect for the role of the second male lead, and now it seems he was indeed the most suitable choice.

Qin Zhihuai didn't have many lines. This scene was mostly filming him, with close-ups of his face, and it was finished in a short while.

Qi Nuan saw him come down from the camera and quickly went to greet him.

"Let's get to know each other again. I'm Qi Nuan, and I'm Mu Wan'er, the second female lead you're acting with," Qi Nuan said generously, her pretty face beaming.

"..." Qin Zhihuai nodded, gently squeezed her hand, and left.

"Goodbye, Qin Zhihuai!" Qi Nuan behind him didn't mind his indifference at all, and waved with a smile. Her outstanding appearance amazed many of the staff who passed by.

Back at the hotel that evening, Qi Nuan, unusually dedicated, began to carefully study the script, much to the alarm of Sister Hao, who stared at her with fear in her eyes.

"Warm you up..." Sister Hao swallowed hard.

"Sister Hao, you're still here?" Qi Nuan looked up at her. "Is there anything else? I still need to look at the script."

"...It's nothing, take your time reading..." Sister Hao left with an embarrassed smile. Although she didn't know why Qi Nuan had suddenly changed her usual lazy attitude, wasn't this a good sign? She breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that Qi Nuan wouldn't cause her any more trouble.

The phone started flashing, attracting Qi Nuan's attention.

"Hey?"

"Nuan Nuan..." The man's gentle, deep voice sounded in her ear.

"Cousin!" Qi Nuan put down the script and called out happily.

"How's the little girl doing on set?" the man asked.

"I'm great, just wait and see how I become tomorrow's star!" she said confidently.

Hearing her innocent words, the man chuckled.

"Okay, okay, cousin is waiting!"

"...By the way, cousin, do you know Qin Zhihuai?" Qi Nuan asked subtly.
