“Rehearsing?” He said. “Which parts of the scene still require rehearsing?”
“Bed… bed scene…” Ye Shengge hung her head not daring to look him in the eyes. “It’s just that… I’m afraid it won’t go smoothly, so I’m rehearsing in advance.”
“Mm.” The man still sounded calm. “Is it over?”
“It’s over! It’s over!” Ye Shengge finally breathed a sigh of relief. She turned around and said, “Teacher Qin, why don’t we call it a day?”
Poor Qin Youhui had just stood up, and he looked at Ji Shiting in bewilderment.
Qin Youhui didn’t know who he was, but he could tell what was going on based on the man’s superior aura, so he didn’t ask further. “Of course. Thank you for today, Teacher Ye. Let’s go, Xiao Liu.”
“Wait.” Ji Shiting looked at Xiao Liu’s hand and said. “Delete it.”
Little Liu was dazed for a bit, then he nodded and said, “Yes, yes.”
He immediately deleted the video.
Qin Youhui picked up his jacket from the sofa and walked out with Xiao Liu. He nodded at Ji Shiting when he walked past.
Ji Shiting shot him a cold glare.
Qin Youhui started to sweat. He forced a smile and left.
Ye Shengge held the man until Qin Youhui and Xiao Liu disappeared behind the door. She then grabbed his hand and said, “Come sit down. I’ll get you some water.”
Her tone was soft and cautious.
Ji Shiting looked at her and walked in, but he didn’t sit on the sofa. Instead, he sat down at the dining table.
Ye Shengge immediately poured him a cup of hot water and said, “I only have water here… Do you want tea or coffee? There seems to be good quality coffee in Director Xu’s room. How about I get you some?”
“No need.” Ji Shiting picked up his cup and looked at Lin Qi.
Ye Shengge slapped her forehead and walked to Lin Qi. She took her phone back and said, “You can get off work now. Go back and rest. You don’t have to come tomorrow morning.”
Lin Qi nodded and asked, “Sister Shengge, is … is he your sugar daddy?”
“…Don’t spout nonsense.” Ye Shengge said fiercely. She was furious seeing Lin Qi still staring at Ji Shiting. “What are you looking at? Stop looking! Hurry and go!”
Ye Shengge pushed her out and closed the door. She then turned around and looked at Ji Shiting, “Are you… angry?”
The man put down his cup and looked at her. He curled his lips and said, “Angry? With what status? Being your sugar daddy or your husband?”
…It seemed that he had heard what Lin Qi had said.
Ye Shengge rubbed her hands and smiled, “That’s my assistant. She doesn’t know any better. She’s just spouting nonsense…”
“So you didn’t tell anyone you were married, and you didn’t tell anyone about our relationship?” Ji Shiting said calmly.
However, Ye Shengge felt her hair stand on end.
“I… I thought that you didn’t want me to announce it,” she stammered.
