Yan Qingsi bothered explaining to Song Qingyan because she respected him as an actor and his talent. If it was anyone else, she probably would not have bothered.
Song Qingyan listened to Yan Qingsi intently — it was the first time he realized that this actress, whom many thought was promiscuous, might… not be like that in reality.
Song Qingyan said, “My apologies, I understood it wrongly.”
Yan Qingsi shrugged. “It’s alright, I’m used to it.”
Little Xu and Ji Mianmian ran over and handed Yan Qingsi water. She nodded towards Song Qingyan before leaving.
Song Qingyan frowned. Used to it — those three words sounded like complete disappointment to him. No one is really used to being misunderstood, being criticized, unless… she no longer had any hope for people and the world.
How would that feel like?
…
After a full day of shooting, Yue Tingfeng waited at the studio — he did not go anywhere, and his eyes were focused on Yan Qingsi.
The shoot ended at 9pm. On the way back to the hotel, Yue Tingfeng got a call from Mrs. Yue to ask him to bring Yan Qingsi and go to the Su Family Restaurant. They drove there right away.
Ji Mianmian realized that the boss was still not leaving, and she whispered, “Sister… what do we do now?”
Yan Qingsi said softly, “Wait for a little longer, we’ll escape when there’s an opportunity to.”
Yue Tingfeng’s cold voice spoke. “Escape to where?”
Yan Qingsi gritted her teeth and said with a smile, “Oh… I said, I said after dinner, I want to go for a stroll.”
“Okay, I’ll accompany you after dinner!”
Ji Mianmian collapsed into the backseat of the car, and a confused Lil Xu asked, “Mianmian, you want to take a stroll? I can come along.”
Ji Mianmian replied, “There’s no need for that, I prefer to hang out on a beanbag chair rather than taking a stroll.”
Lil Xu scratched his head.
…
Once they reached, Su Xiaoliu said to Yan Qingsi excitedly, “Cousin, I heard from Aunty that you’re good at playing mahjong, why don’t we play some tonight?”
Before Yan Qingsi could speak, Yue Tingfeng said, “Sure, we’re already here anyway, let’s do it tonight, Qingsi doesn’t have a shoot tomorrow anyway.”
He believed that there was no way he could lose sight of Yan Qingsi through mahjong tonight.
“…” Yan Qingsi was speechless.
Ji Mianmian cried inside. My goddess was supposed to come along with me to end the ladyboy tonight, don’t you snatch her away from me.
She shouted this about 800 times in her heart, but she did not have the courage to say it out loud after all.
Mrs. Yue saw the sourness on Yan Qingsi’s face and asked, “What’s wrong, Qingsi? Is there a problem? Are you exhausted?”
Qingsi replied, “I…”
Yue Tingfeng hugged Yan Qingsi and said, “Mom, of course not, Qingsi thought about your skills and did not feel like it’s polite to play with you. She was afraid to win all your money.”
Mrs. Yue slapped Yue Tingfeng on his hand and said, “Move…”
Yan Qingsi felt troubled. How could she come back from that? Yue Tingfeng, what a trash who accuses people.
It seemed like there was no way she could escape tonight.
She smiled and said, “Aunty, I don’t mean it that way, don’t listen to him… since you want to play, let’s play… let’s play.”
Ji Mianmian scrunched her lips. She looked down and scratched her own fingers thinking to herself, that’s it, my goddess has been stolen from me.
Yue Tingfeng’s lips curved, and a sinister smile briefly appeared on his face.
After dinner, Yue Tingfeng told Lil Xu and Ji Mianmian to go back to the hotel.
Ji Mianmian was unwilling to leave, and Yue Tingfeng pulled Yan Qingsi into an embrace.
