《Abstinence》First Movement: 《Private Life Fan》
Chapter Three: Intense Love at the Boundary
The days under the sun were like an unfinished song, with the rhythm growing faster, yet shadows always lurking in the melody.
Those anonymous messages were like ghosts, popping up from time to time to remind her: someone was watching.
Last night’s intimacy made her feel protected, but upon waking, Zi Ang’s note and that mysterious scent left her vaguely uneasy—
Everything was going too smoothly, as if fate was toying with her. She shook her head to clear her thoughts.
Today was the new song MV shoot day; she had to focus. In the mirror, her makeup was flawless, yet it couldn’t hide the exhaustion in her eyes.

1）First Encounter in the Makeup Room
Inside the set’s makeup room, the air was thick with the scent of styling products, the mirror lights glaringly bright. Tai Yang sat in the chair, letting the makeup artist adjust her eyeliner, feeling slightly nervous.
This was her first collaboration with the popular actor Han Yi Chen, known for his superb acting, handsome looks, and countless fans.
She had read the script and knew there was a kissing scene, her heart fluttering like a nervous deer—this was her first kiss scene, and she feared she might be too awkward.
The door suddenly opened, and Han Yi Chen walked in wearing a simple white shirt, his smile radiant.
“Hello, Tai Yang, I’m Han Yi Chen. It’s a pleasure to work with you.” His warm voice instantly warmed the atmosphere in the makeup room.
Tai Yang immediately stood up, extending her hand to shake his, feeling his palm dry and strong. “Yi Chen-ge, it’s truly an honor! I’m one of your fans.” She smiled awkwardly, her heart racing.
Han Yi Chen gently tightened his grip during the handshake, his eyes kind: “No need to be so formal, just call me Yi Chen.
I’ve read the script; it feels like it’ll be great.
Shall we chat about the scenes first to build some chemistry?” He pulled up a chair and sat beside her. The two began talking, from plot to daily life, laughter filling the air. Han Yi Chen shared his experience with kiss scenes: “Don’t be nervous, just go with the feeling.” Tai Yang nodded, a warmth rising in her heart. This interaction helped her relax a lot, adding warmth to the upcoming sweet scenes.
After reviewing the script details, Han Yi Chen smiled at her.
“About the kiss scene… please guide me. I haven’t filmed one before…” Tai Yang shyly lowered her head, not daring to meet his deep eyes.
Han Yi Chen smiled shyly: “It’s nothing. I can lead you; just follow the feeling.” He reached out to pat her head, like soothing a child, making Tai Yang’s face even redder, her heart pounding like a nervous deer—
This gentleness was like a ray of sunlight, temporarily dispelling the shadows in her heart.

2）The Sweet Illusion of the MV
The MV shoot went smoothly, like a dream. The story was about a love-filled relationship forced apart by family business. Their final sweet date, parting on good terms, ending with a rainy kiss. Tai Yang portrayed a deeply affectionate girl, Han Yi Chen her lover, the camera capturing every interaction.
First scene, watching a movie: They sat in a virtual theater, feeding each other popcorn. Han Yi Chen’s fingers lightly touched her lips; Tai Yang smiled shyly, but her mind recalled Zi Ang’s touch, making her slightly dazed. The director shouted: “Good, it feels very natural!”
At the amusement park riding the roller coaster, screaming while holding each other’s hands tightly.
In the haunted house, terrified, Tai Yang clung completely to him, feeling his body heat. Lights flickered, screams echoed, her heartbeat accelerating in sync with the plot.
On the carousel, she played happily, smiling at Han Yi Chen: “Today is so wonderful.”
