Chapter 13: A Chance to Make a Name for Oneself!

  Thank you Hell Girl and decadent 11 for the encouragement. By the way, how do I reply to comments in the book review section? I've been stuck on this page for half a day and can't seem to reply... What's going on?

  I've marked all your comments as excellent! Thank you!

  Christina wasn't aware of the change in her mindset, she just furrowed her brow for a moment before resolutely agreeing: "Okay! If I lose, I'll give you a kiss, but you can't move or do anything else, otherwise, we'll fight to the death!"

  Zhou Shaoming knew that this beautiful and sexy Christina was not a timid person. When he first tied her up, she didn't surrender even when he used all means to make her do so, but instead scratched his hand. This kind of courage and bravery deserved his respect.

  "Alright! It's settled then!" Zhou Shaoming stretched out his palm and gave Kristen a light slap.

  "Alright! Let's get started!" Christina said, then furrowed her brow and added: "Wait a minute, let me get into the zone."

  Taking a deep breath, Christina closed her eyes and muttered to herself: "Mirror, mirror, this is my chance to make it big, I must succeed!"

  Although acting is only 55 points, professionalism should be above 80! Zhou Shaoming looked at Kristina who made himself calm down and sighed.

  As Christina murmured, her long eyelashes fluttered occasionally, and the warm light shone on her face, making her delicate features exceptionally holy. That focus, that attitude, moved Zhou Shaoming's heart in an instant.

  Perhaps Christina's road to stardom was not smooth, and she did not become a household name after starring in Terminator 3, but her dedication and passion for film had already taken root deep within her heart, blood, and soul.

  "Alright, let's get started!" Christina opened her eyes and coquettishly tucked her blonde hair behind her ear.

  "This is a continuous test, this is a trial! You must react in three seconds, absolutely cannot exceed the time!" Zhou Shaoming said seriously, helping Kristina deepen her sense of immersion.

  "I understand!"

  "Alright, let's get started! You're a pregnant woman trying hard to give birth!"

  Christina immediately grabbed the back of the chair, stretched out her legs and spread her fiery body, with a painful expression on her face, looking at her lower part: "Ah, ah! Oh my god, I'm going to give birth, it hurts so much!"

  "The son was born!"

  As if shedding a heavy burden, Christina relaxed her grip and pretended to wipe away sweat from her forehead.

  "Your husband rushed in excitedly and ended up falling down dead!"

  "Ah! No! God!" Christina's eyes widened in terror, staring straight at the door, trying to convey pain and misfortune.

  "The son is a genius, he can call you mom as soon as he was born!"

  "Huh? Wha...?" Kristina's terrified expression gave way to a bewildered look.

  "My son doesn't have a small penis!"

  With a look of near hysteria, Christina flailed her arms wildly, causing the handcuffs to clank loudly.

  "You've won the lottery, and it's the jackpot! A whopping $19 billion!"

  "Oh, thank God!" Christina grabbed a newspaper from the table as her lottery ticket, overjoyed.

  "My son is dead!"

  "Ah...!!! Son, you can't die!" Kristina picked up the newspaper, rolled it into a paper tube, and gritted her teeth as she hit Zhou Shaoming on the head with it.

  "Stop messing around, your husband is awake, he's getting up!" Zhou Shaoming pushed aside the paper tube, thinking that Kirsten was still performing.

  "He's getting up? Then I'll knock him down again!" Kristina glared with her beautiful eyes, ferociously hitting the paper tube at Zhou Shaoming's head like a rain of dots.

  "Ah yo ah yo, I declare you failed this audition! You lost!" Zhou Shaoming was beaten up and rushed to the room with a bandaged head.

  "You think you can still run? You come up with such a ridiculous question to test me and make me take it seriously, you're dead this time!" Kristina cursed, pulling hard on the handcuffs, wildly waving the paper tube as she chased Zhou Shaoming.

  "You lose, kiss me now!"

  "Kiss you? What a lovely thought! Let this newspaper give you a crazy kiss on your face for me!"

  "Stop it, stop hitting me! If you hit me again, I'll get revenge!"

  "I'm not afraid of you! I'll beat you until your face is covered in bruises!"

  A man and a woman's cries of surprise, laughter and scolding, echoed in this secluded house, making the shy moon hide behind the clouds.

  The next day was another big harvest day, Tobin spared no effort to help Zhou Shaoming introduce advertising clients. Coca-Cola, the world's largest beverage giant, intended to invest $500,000 as an advertising placement fee and had initially reached an agreement. Although he hadn't received the money yet, it was enough to make Zhou Shaoming excited and happy, almost flying high.

  Back home, Zhou Shaoming was overjoyed and even spun around several times with Kristen in his arms. Then, looking at Kristen's slightly flushed face, he blurted out: "Today, let's go out for dinner to celebrate!"

  "Take me out?" Kristina's eyes widened in surprise, staring at Zhou Shaoming incredulously, excitedly grabbing his arm: "You really take me out? Aren't you afraid I'll shout for help?"

  Zhou Shaoming was momentarily speechless, he had only been acting on a whim, mistakenly taking Christina as one of his good friends, and that's why he suddenly wanted to take her out for dinner, completely ignoring the relationship between him and her. Now hearing her speak, he realized that he was actually a kidnapper, and Christina was a meat ticket.

  Really take her out? Won't the risk be too great? Zhou Shaoming hesitated, mumbling to himself, his face also looking unpleasant.

  "Never mind, I think we'd better just stay here. There's nothing to see on the streets anyway, it's all crowded and annoying." Kristen felt Zhou Shaoming's unease, her excited heart gradually calming down, and with some disappointment, she let go of Zhou Shaoming's arm, saying in a flat tone.

  Zhou Shaoming saw the light on Christina's face quickly dimming, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. After thinking for half a day, he finally made a major decision: "Hey, Christina, am I someone who doesn't keep my promises? Since I said I'd take you out, then I'll definitely take you out! Let's go!"

  "Haha! This is too wonderful!" Kristina jumped up excitedly, her blonde hair flying around her like a young and impulsive heart.

  As she looked at Zhou Shaoming, her eyes inexplicably took on a hint of sentiment.

  "Ding, Christina's favorability towards the host has increased, currently at 45."

  Good feeling has increased again? What's this time for?

  Zhou Shaoming was somewhat perplexed.

  "Well, Mr. Zhou, is there anything else I can ask for?" Kristina looked at Zhou Shaoming with a frown and said hastily: "Absolutely reasonable and reasonable, and, and..."

  She bit her tender lips and said shyly: "And it's also considered cheap for you."
