Although Wang Xiaoqiang wanted to roll out noodle dough with Hee Saixue, he restrained himself, feeling that it wasn't the right time or place, and that if word got out, it would be extremely detrimental to him.

Hee Saixue actually made hand-rolled noodles and cooked several dishes. Then, the two sat down around the table and began to eat.

After the meal, Wang Xiaoqiang took Hee Saixue back to the film crew.

Three days later, Wang Dacheng came to invite Wang Xiaoqiang again.

With no choice, Wang Xiaoqiang went to Wang Dacheng's home again.

As usual, Wang Dacheng had prepared a table full of nutritious dishes for Wang Xiaoqiang, like black chicken soup and softshell turtle soup. Of course, his intention was clear: he wanted his wife to get pregnant and have a good offspring soon.

No alcohol had been prepared.

This was within reason. Wang Xiaoqiang wasn't keen on eating; what hadn't he tasted before? He wouldn't care about this meal. However, Wang Dacheng insisted on persuading him. After trying to persuade him for a while, Wang Dacheng picked up two bottles of liquor and left the house to wander in the fields, saying before he left, "Little brother Xiaoqiang, no rush, I'll be back only after it gets dark..."

Saying this, Wang Dacheng left the house feeling satisfied. After Wang Xiaoqiang had 'seeded' Li Ruifang last time, on his return, Wang Dacheng asked how his wife felt. Of course, Li Ruifang couldn't admit she enjoyed it and simply said, "I should be able to get pregnant."

Just that sentence made Wang Dacheng so happy he couldn't sleep all night. Of course, he didn't dare touch his wife again, believing that if two men shared the same woman, it would result in a hybrid. In the end, it might lead to the birth of some bizarre freak.

After Wang Dacheng left the house, Li Ruifang came out. She clearly had just showered. Her hair was wet, and she was emitting a faint fragrance. She was wearing a somewhat provocative red top.

Li Ruifang sat down and urged Wang Xiaoqiang to eat. Wang Xiaoqiang stared at Li Ruifang, "Sister-in-law, I just had a big meal before coming, I'm not hungry..."

"You need to eat a bit anyway, or you'll get hungry later," Li Ruifang flirted with a glance at Wang Xiaoqiang.

"Come on, Xiaoqiang, have some black chicken soup. I made it myself," Li Ruifang ladled a bowl of black chicken soup and brought it to his lips, wanting to feed him personally.

Wang Xiaoqiang took a few sips and said, "Sister-in-law, I'm really not hungry, I ate too much at home,"

"Well then, shall we..." Li Ruifang started to speak but stopped short, blushing.

Wang Xiaoqiang nodded and stood up...

After that time, Wang Xiaoqiang never visited again. Yet that month, Li Ruifang missed her period.

She was pregnant.

This made the young couple ecstatic. Wang Dacheng kept praising Wang Xiaoqiang for his prowess.

From then on, Wang Xiaoqiang no longer visited Wang Dacheng's home. However, after Li Ruifang gave birth to a son, during the baby's full-month celebration, he secretly sent a generous gift—100,000 yuan.

He didn't want his son to suffer after being born.

Wang Dacheng and his wife were adamant about not accepting it, but when Wang Xiaoqiang said it was a red envelope for the child, they accepted.

But this is another story, let's leave it for now.

After the film crew finished shooting the first part in Sanmiao Village, they moved to River City for the second part. The second part chronicled Wang Xiaoqiang's entrepreneurial journey, which involved a new female lead character, the beautiful bureau chief, based on the real-life Xu Qingxue. Director Zhao had cast a newly prominent movie star, Li Bingru.

Once Li Bingru joined the crew, she immediately became the center of attention. Li Bingru was simply too gorgeous, and with her arrival, Hee Saixue got significantly less screen time.

This made Hee Saixue feel greatly neglected.

That day,

the film crew was shooting a kissing scene between the male and female leads at Dragon Lake Plaza in River City, adapted from the "Kissing Contest" incident involving Wang Xiaoqiang and Xu Qingxue at Dragon Lake Plaza. While the script was a bit exaggerated, it wasn't too far from the truth.

Three years had passed, and Wang Xiaoqiang once again visited Dragon Lake. He remembered Xu Qingxue, the beautiful bureau chief, who had now become his woman and borne him twin boys. His heart swelled with contentment and reflection.

```

Three years had passed, the people were changed, but the objects remained the same.

Dragon Lake was still the same Dragon Lake it had been, unchanged.

Located to the east of River City, Dragon Lake spanned 4.4 kilometers east to west, 2.5 kilometers north to south, with a perimeter of 14 kilometers and a surface area of 11 square kilometers. Its water covered over 10,600 acres. Its grandeur and scale made West Lake in Hangzhou pale in comparison. The ancient city stood embraced by the lake waters, with the city standing tall within the lake; a city within a lake and a lake within a city, hailed as an inland marvel and a famous jewel of the Central Plains.

The meeting place for the lovesick couple described in the 'Book of Songs' and 'Chen Feng' was none other than the ancient and magical Dragon Lake shore. Poet Su Shi of the Song Dynasty was captivated by the lake's magical and beautiful natural scenery. In 'Following the Rhymes of Brother You's Feelings upon Willow Lake,' he wrote, "Only Willow Lake boasts ten thousand willows, dawn and dusk I share with thee... Morning sees the dense greens puffed up in pride, night loves the sparse shadows dancing in the clear garden, the wind whips up the snow-like spring catkins in disarray, the spring sounds absorb the wood's autumnal strength; each season's rise and fall has its own demeanor, their shedding and swaying evoke a poignant shock of cold and warmth..." These verses not only conveyed the great scholar's adoration for the vast Dragon Lake but also depicted and outlined the lake's natural beauty from perspectives of light and shade, day and night, winds and snow, and the four seasons. If one arrived at the lakeside in the early spring, when the warmth just began to thaw the chill, they might see flocks of wild ducks and egrets frolicking and chasing each other on the thawing ice, now diving under the water, now emerging atop, now flapping hurriedly into flight, disappearing into the misty light blue sky. This scene would surely transport you into the artistic conception of 'the spring river waters warm, the ducks are the first to know.'

In the blazing midsummer, the lake surface was mostly covered by overlapping layers of lotus leaves, with large lotus flowers nestled among them. Some were pink like rouge, others were white as jade, resembling demure and poised maidens, standing tall and charming without any need for makeup. Occasionally,

you could hear the "keng la, keng la" sounds of fishing and the silvery laughter of young girls picking lotus flowers. This was exactly the scene described by "South of the river, one can pick lotus leaves, so wide and lush they grow," and "Picking lotus at the southern pond in autumn, the lotus flowers tower over people's heads." In deep autumn, the lake's cattails were profound and dense, and the reeds were lush. Gusts of autumn wind brought flying catkin snowflakes that fluttered and swayed. If you could row a boat, cutting through waves and venturing into the hidden depths of the reeds, silently listening to the soft and melodious singing of a fisher girl in the distance, you would surely understand the longing in the 'Book of Songs' where it says, "The cattails are lush, and white dew turns to frost, the so-called beloved one, on the other side of the water." In the bitter winter, if you walked beside the lake after a heavy snow, you would see the vast ice-covered lake and the willows on the shore draped in silver, "Thousands of drooping branches like silver threads," and "The water's surface freshly polished like an autumn mirror," presenting a thousand miles of icebound scenery of the Northern Country, full of poetic and picturesque charm.

Longhu of Huaiyang is also "a palace of historical and cultural significance." Numerous famous landmarks are scattered like bright pearls along the shore and within the lake. Within the lake are the Hexagram Painting Platform, White Turtle Pond, String Music Platform, Sisheng Zhenzi Pavilion, Chen Chu Ancient City, and Su Zhe Reading Platform. Along the shore stands the majestic and imposing ancient architectural complex Tomb of Fuxi, the Great Hao, the thoughtful Cao Zhi's memorial mound, and the earliest ancient city site Level Grain Platform. In the past, pleasure boats wandered through these sites, and scholars composed poems and fished, creating brilliant chapters in the history of Ancient Chen Huaiyang and leaving behind a string of beautiful legends. It is in this ancient and magical cradle of Huaxia culture and the picturesque Longdu Lakeside Village that saints and scholars of past dynasties, as well as descendants of the dragon from across the seas, have revered and been enchanted.

On this day, the weather was clear and fine.

After the film crew arrived at Dragon Lake, they began shooting the kiss scene.

Wang Xiaoqiang had always been a bit envious of those male actors who could kiss beautiful actresses without any reservations. Now he was a male actor himself and could kiss a beautiful actress in public, with full legitimacy.

And this actress was quite famous, too.

The kiss scene finally started.

Li Bingru was in her early twenties, younger than Hee Saixue, but it was obvious that she was bolder than Hee Saixue. After all, this was not a violent scene, but a kissing one.

However, this kiss scene was extremely long. It lasted for 45 minutes, which was honestly unbearable.

Wang Xiaoqiang, however, didn't feel any agony. Because he was a Cultivator.

The scene started rolling.

Wang Xiaoqiang and Li Bingru kissed each other.

Li Bingru, true to her name, gave off a cold and icy vibe, presenting an aloof beauty that seemed to keep everyone at a distance. However, the more she did so, the more she incited a man's desire to conquer her.

But to conquer such an icy beauty was no easy task.

Today was different, however, because for the sake of the film, Li Bingru had to shed her icy demeanor and show a gentle and tender side, especially towards Wang Xiaoqiang, expressing the deep and affectionate love between lovers. Her sudden tenderness made the surrounding crew members overflow with envy, especially when the two kissed, all the male staff sported lecherous expressions...

Li Bingru was indeed a pure and genuine lady. Although she had held hands with male actors before, she had never truly kissed anyone,

But for the film, she couldn't push Wang Xiaoqiang away.

She had to endure! Endure, endure... like a ninja.

Hee Saixue was even more displeased.

Watching Wang Xiaoqiang's kiss scene with Li Bingru made Hee Saixue's heart heavy with gloom. She just felt a sour taste pervading her heart.

Contrarily, Wang Xiaoqiang was enjoying it quite a bit, and when he felt short of breath, he would release some Spiritual Energy, ensuring his breathing wasn't obstructed.

Just when both women were feeling aggrieved, Director Zhao was extremely pleased because a scene that initially seemed challenging looked like it would be completed in one take.

Wang Xiaoqiang's acting was simply superb; not only was he excellent in intense scenes, but his performance in the kiss scene wasn't bad either!
