Chapter 85

Zhou Jin answered the phone.

Nazha's voice was a bit nervous: "Brother Jin, have you seen those comments online?"

"Of course I have."

"The entertainment industry is like this; the more popular you are, the more they find you an eyesore; I was like this back then too."

Zhou Jin listened to her concern and said with a calm smile: "Don't worry, I had already anticipated these negative reviews, I haven't taken them to heart at all."

Hearing Zhou Jin's relaxed tone, and that he really hadn't been hit by anything, Nazha finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

Zhou Jin returned to his hotel room from the set.

Li Yitong naturally had also seen those surging malicious reviews online.

In order to comfort Zhou Jin properly, she had specifically dressed up carefully tonight. This book is first published on Tian Tian Kan Xiao Shuo, ⓣⓣⓚⓢ. ⓣⓦ, super awesome, providing you with an error-free and non-disordered reading experience.

As soon as Zhou Jin pushed open the door, the scene in front of him made his breath hitch.

Li Yitong was wearing an extremely thin and sexy black lace deep-V camisole nightdress, with pitifully little fabric, the hem barely covering the base of her thighs.

Her snow-white skin looked exceptionally dazzling against the black lace, and that slender waist and the spring scenery about to burst out from her chest had an even greater visual impact.

Li Yitong smiled with her eyes narrowed: "Today's clothes are easy to tear, specifically for you to vent, Brother!"

Actually, although Zhou Jin had long been mentally prepared for the movie's reputation, it would be a lie to say he wasn't angry at all when looking at those deliberate smears online that didn't distinguish right from wrong.

After all, he was a living person, not a machine without a temper.

At this moment, the fire he had been holding back in his heart was completely ignited the moment he saw the sexy and enchanting Li Yitong in front of him, transforming into another kind of burning impulse.

Zhou Jin walked up in large strides, pulled Li Yitong tightly into his arms, lowered his head, and kissed her red lips fiercely.

His movements carried a hint of impatience and roughness, and with a soft "rip" sound, the already thin and fragile lace nightdress was torn open by him and slid to the floor along her fair shoulders.

……

More than an hour later.

Li Yitong lay limp on Zhou Jin's sturdy chest like a docile little kitten.

She was panting slightly, her voice carrying a hint of sadness and disappointment: "*Above the Clouds* is officially starting filming tomorrow, I have to leave here tomorrow."

Having lived in Zhou Jin's hotel room for more than half a month, the two had been inseparable every day; now that she suddenly had to move to her own crew's hotel, Li Yitong was ten thousand times reluctant.

The more she thought about it, the less she wanted to leave, so Li Yitong simply gritted her teeth and flipped over to sit directly on Zhou Jin's stomach.

A hint of cunning and enchantment flashed in the eyes of this "evil little kitten."

She leaned down slightly, her red lips parted slightly, and she actually pulled out an unopened Durex from somewhere and held it in her mouth, then blinked at Zhou Jin playfully and provocatively.

Zhou Jin was already full of vigor and vitality, and the fire from just now hadn't been completely vented; how could he withstand this straightforward temptation now?

Facing Li Yitong's bold provocation, Zhou Jin flipped over and hugged Li Yitong.

The battle for this whole night was extremely intense.

……

The morning sun spilled into the room through the gap in the curtains.

Li Yitong woke up groggily, and like a lazy kitten, not only did she not get up immediately, but she took the opportunity to burrow even deeper into Zhou Jin's arms.

Her soft body was pressed tightly against Zhou Jin, her hands wrapped firmly around his waist, and she kept rubbing her cheeks against his chest, her eyes full of reluctance.

Zhou Jin looked at her kitten-like, coquettish appearance, smiled, reached out, and gently wrapped his arms around her smooth, rounded shoulders.

Li Yitong pouted and said coquettishly in a soft voice, "Brother Jin, I really don't want to leave, I really don't want to part with you."

Zhou Jin patted her back gently, coaxing her patiently like a child for a long time, before Li Yitong finally got up to get dressed.

Before leaving, she suddenly stopped and turned to lean into Zhou Jin's ear.

Her warm breath hit Zhou Jin's ear, and she said in a low voice, carrying a hint of cunning and ultimate enchantment.

"Brother Jin, actually I not only have Guo Fu's costume, I also have a set of Little Dragon Girl's clothes."

"Next time we meet, I'll wear Little Dragon Girl's clothes for you to see; then you can be Yang Guo, and right there on the bed, punish your disobedient Little Dragon Girl fiercely."

Listening to this explicit provocation full of imagery, a ball of heat suddenly surged in Zhou Jin's heart.

His breathing couldn't help but quicken a bit.

This evil little kitten is simply too deadly.

As Li Yitong left dragging her suitcase, Zhou Jin's room returned to quiet.

*The Breakup Guru* in the cinema was still playing hotly.

Although the subsequent daily box office didn't break 100 million like the first day, under the blessing of huge buzz, the box office was still rising steadily.

Even if the screen was full of negative reviews, that was still real traffic.

In the memory of Zhou Jin's previous life, the final box office of *The Breakup Guru* was only about 700 million.

But now, under the hard push of this unprecedentedly huge wave of traffic, its total box office had actually been forced up to the 1.1 billion mark.

You know, at the time point of 2014, there were only three domestic films in the country with a box office exceeding 1 billion.

They were *Lost in Thailand*, *Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons*, and *The Monkey King*.

And now, *The Breakup Guru* successfully squeezed into this ranks, becoming the fourth domestic film to break 1 billion at the box office.

Once this astonishing result came out, those so-called professional screenwriters and directors who were already extremely dissatisfied with *The Breakup Guru* became even more furious.

In their eyes, how could this kind of movie with no logic, which they were crazily bearish on, get such a high box office?

Consequently, the buzz of negative reviews originally targeting *The Breakup Guru* had just decreased.

This group of directors, screenwriters, and film critics gathered again and launched an even crazier verbal attack on *The Breakup Guru* on major social platforms.

And this time, they aimed their guns directly at Zhou Jin, starting to examine her acting skills with a magnifying glass.

At this time, experts, directors, and screenwriters still had a certain authority.

Zhou Jin's acting in *Swords of Legends* and *The Breakup Guru* wasn't good enough for everyone to recognize.

Most of the onlookers online actually didn't have any ability to distinguish, so they followed blindly when they saw what these people with authoritative expert titles said.

Under the instigation of those so-called professionals, Zhou Jin was forced to be labeled with "bad acting."

However, these online storms had nothing to do with Zhou Jin anymore.

Today was the last day of filming for *The Left Ear*.

The set was silent, and all the lights and cameras were in place.

Behind the monitor, Su Youpeng raised his walkie-talkie, held his breath, and shouted: "Ready, start!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhou Jin's entire aura changed instantly.

One second he was still the gentle and sunny Zhou Jin on the crew, the next second, his eyes were filled with the forbearance, pain, and desperate entanglement belonging to the character.

Chen Duling had been a bit nervous, but the moment she touched Zhou Jin's eyes, she felt a powerful pull, and her whole person was forcibly dragged into the drama.

Her eyes were red, and her cold face was full of stubbornness and heartbreak.

Zhou Jin interpreted the pain of adolescent tearing vividly, and the powerful aura even brought Chen Duling's performance to an unprecedented peak.
