Ye Shengge pushed him and said, “Don’t touch me!”
The man grabbed her wrist and said, “You’re not wearing your seatbelt.”
“I’ll do it myself…”
“Don’t move,” Ji Shiting said as he grabbed the seat belt and buckled it.
However, he still leaned forward and pinched her chin with one hand. “Are you jealous again?”
“I’m mad.” She glared at him.
What she had been most worried about was Ji Shiting’s gratitude and guilt towards Ling Yutong. Indeed, that man had wavered just now.
“I won’t let you quit.” Ji Shiting curled his lips. “Otherwise, I won’t be able to take it if you get jealous.”
Ye Shengge blushed. She didn’t know whether it was because of that man’s indulgence, but she didn’t feel guilty about being jealous at all.
Perhaps because she was certain that he wouldn’t get mad and would try to appease her, she couldn’t help throwing a tantrum.
“Actually, I’d rather she choose to stay and let me quit,” Ye Shengge suddenly said.
Ji Shiting was surprised. He raised an eyebrow and asked, “Why?”
He thought that what Ye Shengge had said to Ling Yutong was to force Ling Yutong to back out.
“Then you don’t have to owe her anything.” Ye Shengge put her head on the man’s shoulder. “I think exchanging for the lead actress role for that is worth it.”
Ji Shiting was dazed, then he hugged her tightly.
“Does that mean I’m more important to you than your career?”
“Huh? No way.” She looked up and glared at him. “There are plenty of chances to act, and there are plenty of good movies. If I can’t act this time, there’ll be a next time. Besides, if I quit the show, your guilt will fall on me. At that time, won’t you think of ways to give me a better chance? I’d rather you feel that you owe me and not others.”
She seemed to be very calculative.
Ji Shiting pinched her chin and smiled. “That makes sense.”
“That’s right.” She looked at him. “Then… Do you feel more sorry for her now that she quit?”
“No,” the man chuckled.
“But she said she did it for you.”
“I don’t appreciate it,” he chuckled and stroked her face. “Are you satisfied now?”
Ye Shengge snorted but didn’t say anything.
“I’ll compensate her with something else.” The man stared at her eyes. “You don’t have to worry about me sacrificing you to fulfill her wish.”
“But…”
“Or do you not trust me?” The man interrupted her.
Ye Shengge was rendered speechless.
She suddenly bit the man’s wrist and said, “You cut ties with your ex, and I have to deal with the aftermath every time! How dare you blame me for not trusting you?”
“Cut off ties?” Ji Shiting didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He pinched her face. “Ye Shengge, you have to be reasonable.”
“I’m just unreasonable.” Ye Shengge snorted. “Blame yourself!”
He had spoiled her.
