“I know Li Yining is going to marry that old man, Xiao Cheng,” Xie Siqi smiled confidently. “I happen to know someone from the Xiao family. I can tell you how she’s doing.”
In Yang City, the relationship between Qiao Yanze and Li Yinian was no secret.
Upon hearing this, the smile on Qiao Yanze’s face disappeared.
The man’s handsome face was seductive when he smiled, but when he looked solemn, he looked detached.
Xie Siqi suddenly became nervous but she didn’t back down. She lifted her chin and said, “Xiao Cheng is already in his sixties, and I heard that he isn’t in good health…”
Qiao Yanze sneered and interrupted her. “Ms. Xie, I need to change my clothes. Or do you plan to let me help with the issue of you being drugged?”
He put his hands on her waist as he said that. It was as if he was about to take the towel off at any moment.
Xie Siqi face turned red. She hurriedly turned around and walked toward the door.
Before leaving, she said, “Please reconsider what I just said. I know you can’t bear to part with Li Yining…”
“Scram,” Qiao Yanze said coldly.
Xie Siqi gritted her teeth and closed the door.
Qiao Yanze smiled grimly, changed into his pajamas before picking up his phone and dialing a number.
“As you expected, she really got the key to your room,” Qiao Yanze said with a hoarse voice. “I’ve already asked her to leave.”
On the other end, Ji Shiting thought for a bit.
“Could it be that she only wants me?”
“I say, Young Master Ji.” Qiao Yanze smiled jokingly. “Can you have some faith in yourself? You alone is enough for her to go through all this trouble.”
Ji Shiting ignored his teasing and hung up.
Qiao Yanze found it amusing hearing the busy tone on the phone. Did that guy think Xie Siqi got close to Grandpa Ji because she wanted to seize the Ji family’s inheritance?
He put down his phone and threw himself on the bed, thinking about what Xie Siqi had said.
Couldn’t bear to part with Li Yinian?
Geez.
…
In guest room 203, Ye Shengge was still showering in the bathroom. She was dithering and did not dare go out.
What was there to be afraid of? That man had always disliked her, and he didn’t even want to touch her when he was sober.
But… Even if the birthmark on her face didn’t affect her acting, she still needed to get rid of the birthmark if she wanted to get a role in future films.
Shooting of ‘Xue Ning’ would only last three to four months at most. She had to sleep with that man enough times in the next three to four months. She finally had a chance, yet she was actually backing down now?
She should just walk out without wearing anything and seduce him!
However, she was already blushing just at that thought, not to mention summoning her courage.
How useless!
She couldn’t help hitting her own head.
If only there was alcohol in the room. Then, she might have the guts to get half drunk.
After a long time, Ye Shengge put on her clothes and walked out. She couldn’t stay in the bathroom all night.
She walked out and saw Ji Shiting sitting on the edge of the bed. He was leaning against the head of the bed and his eyes were closed.
He didn’t look too comfortable.
“What’s wrong, Mr. Ji?” she asked carefully.
Ji Shiting suddenly opened his eyes. There was a dark look in his eyes that seemed filled with aggression. This made Ye Shengge’s heart pound rapidly.
“I think someone drugged me.” His voice was hoarse as he breathed out slowly. “You should leave. Just in case.”
