Chapter 25.1

Jin Lie’s face looked a bit off. The script had already been turned to the page that Su Qian was supposed to act on, but he was still stuck on that hurdle, his mind constantly thinking about that bed scene.

“Can there be bed scenes in TV dramas now?” His tone was very light, as if he was casually asking.

Su Qian shrugged, “Of course there can be. But they are all relatively subtle.”

Wait, what’s with this disappointed expression?!

Jin Lie sneered, “You seem to be quite regretful.”

“Not really. But the male lead is really handsome.”

That muscular body bursting with hormones, plus the character’s charm, it’s estimated that it will attract a lot of fans after it airs.

“Is there anyone you don’t find handsome?”

“Of course there is! Like the guy who acted with me today.” Bad in the drama and bad outside, “As soon as I see him, my fists get hard!”

Jin Lie said coldly, “Don’t mention you, even I feel hard when I see him.”

The atmosphere suddenly quieted down.

Su Qian’s eyes were spinning around, and her ears were a bit hot.

This sentence didn’t seem strange at first, but it did sound a bit strange when listened to carefully.

Jin Lie seemed to feel it too, he coughed lightly with his fist, and picked up the script in a pretentious manner, “I think the bed scene part is open to discussion.”

It would be best if the director knew better and could cut it out.

Su Qian glanced at him, “There used to be an investor who pointed fingers at the script, and later he became bald.”

“Even if I’m bald, I’m still the most handsome.”

She calmly stabbed, “No matter how handsome, there’s no hair. Why can’t you insist on being a handsome guy with hair?”

Jin Lie: “……”

“Are you going to act or not with all your rambling?”

It’s clearly you who’s rambling! Look at what you’ve said!

Su Qian tugged her hair around her ears and said lightly, “Of course I will, I’m going to get a marker.”

She ran to the room, came back with it, and threw a can of drink at Jin Lie, which happened to hit him.

Jin Lie bent over with a painful groan, and Su Qian was startled, quickly removing the drink and subconsciously rubbing him a couple of times.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to, are you okay?”

Jin Lie felt like he was jumping back and forth between heaven and hell. He gritted his teeth, and said, “Stop it now.”

Su Qian stiffened, finally reacted, and immediately put her hands behind her back.

Time seemed to freeze, and everything around seemed to stop at this moment. Only the sound of irregular breathing echoed in the room.

Someone’s heart was pounding like a drum.

“You, you…” She stuttered, and her face completely red.

Jin Lie’s voice was hoarse, and he said irritably, “What you, it’s all because of you!”

Boom——

This meaningful sentence exploded like a huge firecracker next to Su Qian’s ear. For a moment, she was somewhat at a loss.

She had grown up so much, although she understood a lot of theoretical knowledge, but because she was a solo from the womb, she had never had a bit of practical experience.

“Shut up!” Her ears were so red that they looked like they were about to bleed, she didn’t care about anything else and moved back haphazardly. She took a few deep breaths and said, “You… you solve it yourself.”

Although this feeling was a bit uncomfortable, Jin Lie was still amused by her reaction, “Can you teach me how to solve it?”

“What… what am I teaching you?! Don’t… don’t you have hands?!”

Oh my god, what is she talking about?! It seems like they are not in a relationship where they can talk about these things!

“Oh,” Jin Lie shrugged, “I don’t like using hands.”

Who cares what you like! Su Qian’s face was burning hot, and she turned her back to him. Her hand seemed to still feel that strange touch.

Jin Lie: “Now you know.”

“…Know what?”

Jin Lie laughed softly, “Whether I really need to take the medicine my mom sent me.”

Su Qian: “……”

“Who cares about you.”

She fanned the heat on her face, and got up to open the curtain a bit. Someone rang the doorbell as if they had timed it well. Su Qian’s heart jumped, she walked over like a thief and pulled up Jin Lie, “Someone’s here.”

Jin Lie lazily got up, “So what?”

“With your current state, it’s best if you shut up and don’t make a sound!” Saying this, Su Qian pushed him into the room and closed the door, “You better behave in there.”

Su Qian calmed down a bit to making herself look normal, and went to open the door.

Outside stood a male actor from the crew. He had a cheerful personality and got along well with everyone.

He handed over a bag of fruit and said, “I thought I’d send it over earlier, but I’ve been busy.”

Su Qian said politely, “No need, you keep it and eat it.”

“The assistant bought too much, it’s really sweet, I’m not lying to you.” After saying this, he stuffed the bag into her hand, “I’m leaving, good night.”

“……Thank you.”

The male actor waved his hand, “They’ve all been washed so you can eat them directly.”

Su Qian smiled, watched him walk away, and closed the door.

This crew is really lively. There hasn’t been a quiet moment all day.

She opened the bag and looked inside. It was filled with all kinds of fruits, which she recognized at a glance since she often ate them. These things were sold in the most famous market in Chuan City, and the prices were not friendly at all.

Su Qian picked up a grape and put it in her mouth.

“Mmm, it’s so sweet.”

She ate one after another, and unable to stop. It was only after five minutes that she remembered there seemed to be someone else in the room.

…When did he become so honest?

She ate another grape and called out, “Come out! The person has left.”

The door slowly opened, and Jin Lie walked over with a dark face. She didn’t know what he had been doing inside, but his bathrobe belt was undone, and revealed a clearly defined set of abs.

“Why are you so disheveled, what were you doing just now?”

Jin Lie retorted coldly, “You were the one who dragged me in there.”

Oh, so she was the one who had pulled it open.

Su Qian coughed lightly and didn’t say anything.

“I was about to fall asleep in there, why did you take so long?”

“Oh. We chatted for a bit.”

The crystal ashtray on the coffee table was filled with wet fruit peels. Jin Lie glanced again at the bag in her hand and asked with a gloomy tone, “Were you discussing how to eat grapes without spitting out the skins?”

Su Qian picked up a grape and handed it to him, “Don’t be so mean, try it, it’s delicious.”

“All you know is eating.” He grabbed her wrist and took the grape into his mouth with her hand.

Su Qian’s body trembled as her fingers were wrapped in warmth. She quickly retracted his hand and rubbed her fingertips involuntarily.

Jin Lie noticed her small movement, his Adam’s apple bobbed, and said with a hoarse voice, “You’re right, it’s very sweet and delicious.”

—

The next day, Su Qian woke up leisurely before seven o’clock. Probably because there were too many things the day before, which made her sleep particularly deep.

She rubbed her eyes and got out of bed, only to find that Jin Lie was no longer in the room. She thought he was in the bathroom, but when she came to the sofa, she saw the note he had left on the coffee table.

【Going back to handle some things, contact me if needed – Jin Lie】

His handwriting was in beautiful thin gold script. There were no flamboyant strokes, but each stroke was powerful and exuded a unique character.

After Su Qian finished reading, she tore up the note and threw it into the trash can before going to the bathroom. After washing up and coming out, the door was knocked. It was a tall man in a black suit.

“Miss Su, your breakfast has arrived.”

Su Qian thought it was a customer service staff, so she let him push the meal cart in. The man arranged the breakfast one by one and said to her, “I’ll wait at the door, just let me know if you need anything.”

“Wait.” She looked at him suspiciously, “You are…”

“I am Mr. Jin’s bodyguard, you can call me Ah Yi. This morning before Mr. Jin left, he instructed that I am responsible for your safety during the filming period.”

It seemed that she didn’t expect Jin Lie to be so thoughtful, and a subtle feeling welled up in Su Qian’s heart.

It was a long-lost sense of security, allowing her to live a solid life, letting her know that there is a strong backing she can rely on.

Su Qian picked up the cup and took a sip of milk, and pursed her lips. It seemed exceptionally sweet.
