“Xia?” Xuan Sheng’s eyes lit up and he put down his legs. “Then why haven’t you invited her in?”
The corners of the butler’s lips twitched. ‘You said you were going to kick her out just now.’
“Forget it, I’ll pick her up myself.” Xuan Sheng stood up and strode out the door. The butler was stunned. What kind of fairy could make our young master so excited?
When Xuan Sheng happily brought her in, the butler only saw a woman wearing sunglasses and a mask. He did not know why Young Master was smiling so happily without even seeing his face.
The two of them sat in the pavilion. Xuan Sheng dismissed everyone. Only then did Xia Wanyuan take off her mask. Xuan Sheng personally made her a cup of tea.
“How is your body?” Xia Wanyuan looked at Xuan Sheng and saw that his expression was not bad. However, his right wrist was still wrapped in a thick bandage. Xia Wanyuan’s eyes narrowed.
“My injuries are so serious. I feel like I’m going to die. You have to marry me to make me happy.” Xuan Sheng winked at Xia Wanyuan.
“Has it scabbed?” Xia Wanyuan was already used to the teasing in Xuan Sheng’s words. She pretended not to hear and pressed on.
“Hey, I’m used to bumping into things since I was young. These are all small injuries. I’ll be fine in a few days.” Feeling the genuine concern in Xia Wanyuan’s eyes, Xuan Sheng felt a little unnatural.
“Thank you.” Xia Wanyuan looked at Xuan Sheng seriously and took out a small box from her bag. “I know you don’t lack money either. These are a few songs that I specially recorded for calming the heart. I’ll give them to you. They can help you sleep.”
As Xia Wanyuan spoke, she handed the box to Xuan Sheng. However, Xuan Sheng seemed to be in a daze and didn’t reach out to take it.
“CEO Xuan?” Xia Wanyuan could not help but call out.
“Xia Wanyuan.” Xuan Sheng suddenly smiled. Unlike his usual sinister smile, this smile was real. “Has anyone told you that you’re quite a good person?”
Xia Wanyuan was stunned. She recalled that Jun Shiling had said so before.
Touching the sudden gentleness in Xia Wanyuan’s eyes, Xuan Sheng recalled that back then in the cave, Xia Wanyuan had subconsciously called out “Jun Shiling.”
He, who was originally very happy, suddenly felt irritated.
He, who had been smiling just now, suddenly changed his expression. “Alright, you’ve seen my injury and given my gift. Miss Xia, please leave.”
“I’ll leave this here. I’ll leave first.” For some reason, Xuan Sheng’s expression suddenly changed. Since he had given the order to chase her out, Xia Wanyuan did not stay any longer. She placed the box on the table and stood up to leave.
Seeing Xia Wanyuan’s distant back, Xuan Sheng opened his mouth. He wanted to keep her, but what was the use of keeping her? She would leave sooner or later. In the end, Xuan Sheng watched Xia Wanyuan leave in silence.
“Young Master, Miss Xia has already left.” Xia Wanyuan had already disappeared at the door, but Xuan Sheng was still looking in that direction. The butler stepped forward to remind him.
“Move this chair in and keep it properly.” Xuan Sheng pointed at the place where Xia Wanyuan had sat just now. He reached out to take the box on the table and pressed the play button. The gentle music instantly poured out.
Xuan Sheng put on his headphones and leaned on the recliner with his eyes closed. He listened for the entire afternoon.
——
Xia Wanyuan left Xuan Sheng’s house. Seeing that it was still early, she drove to the film studio to see where the production team was progressing. She also communicated with Li Heng about the parts she needed to film.
The car slowly drove into the film studio complex and saw Tang Yin standing in front of Shi Tian in the distance. Shi Tian had an arrogant look and the two of them seemed to be arguing about something. Shi Tian raised her arm and pretended to want to hit Tang Yin.
