Seventeen Imagines III

#77 When Seducing Went Wrong (4)

Seducing the next target, Choi Seungcheol, is a mission impossible unless I succeed on creating connection with the rising star, Mingyu. Main reason why, is because...

"Cut! Miss Olivia, how many times should we shoot this scene?" Loud voice halted the filming site. Then, a man with great muscle build, fair snowy skin, thick brows and long lashes, sharp jaws, husky voice and triangular red lips, stood up while placing his hands on the sides of his waist.

Everyone looked at the talented and passionated, yet hot tempered director of the drama, "The Soil needs Fertilizer." It is the series Mingyu is working on as the male lead.

Making it short, to seduce that handsome scary director, Seungcheol, I need acquaintance to approach him naturally. Fortunately, I am working as Mingyu's driver for the meantime so that's the reason why I am present at the film location.

"Argh. This will be a long day again," Mingyu murmured by the side, sitting and drinking lemon juice. His eyes caught me and a frown quickly drawn on his face. "What are you looking at?" He asked in perturb tone.

'If only he's not also target, I already killed this guy,' I swore to myself while smiling at him before I shook my head.

Out of the four male leads, Mingyu is the hardest obstacle. However, I won't deny that he played a big role in saving my life.

[ "Act natural. I saw someone following you from behind. And he has... a knife on his hand." ]

That day, I really thought it's my last day.

Mingyu helped me and even used his influence to check the CCTV footages in the underground parking lot. We were unable to see the face of the mysterious guy who was following me but that doesn't mean that I'll be at ease.

'Isn't it unfair that a nameless extra of the original story will die by a hand of her stalker or whoever it is?'

On the other hand, this world I am living is only a novel where everyone will die in the end. That's why I am doing my best to save everyone! But if death is also a part of my end, what should I do now? It's not like I can say to everybody that: 'Hey guys! We are all just characters in the book and we need to reunite to kill the villain!'

'Surely, they'll send me to the mental hospital,' sighing at this thought, I looked at Mingyu once again.

The day when he helped me, a reporter saw us together. To avoid scandal, Mingyu lied by saying that I am his newly hired driver. His agency begged me to start working just for a month and because it'll help my plan, I accepted it.

'That's right. I already started this so let's find a way to escape our death flags together!'

"I am doing my best, director Choi. What's more do I need?!" Olivia, the pretty actress, shouted in annoyance. Her manager tried to hold onto her in case she throw a fit.

"I told you that we need to emphasize more emotion to this scene," Director Seungcheol said while pressing his temples.

In the original plot, Seungcheol fell in love with Jasmine after getting a motivational words. (Seriously, Jasmine is such an annoying female lead who always butt into other businesses.) But it still months before they'll meet. If Seungcheol and that actress will fight, then it's a chance for me!

"Here we go again," Mingyu sighed, rolling his eyes as if he is watching a scene that he already watched 100 times.

"I did," Olivia cried.

"H-Hey, why are you crying again?" Seungcheol panicked.

"I don't know! Argh, I hate you director! I hate working with you!" Then she walked out.
