Chapter 24.4

“Someone sent you a bouquet of flowers.”

Su Qian took it and turned to go into the room.

Seeing her sneaky behavior, the assistant couldn’t help but be curious, “Sister Qian, what are you doing, is there something inside that can’t be seen?”

“Yes, there is a man as beautiful as a fairy hidden inside!”

She said confidently, holding the flowers and closing the door.

The assistant touched her nose, “Where did the man come from, did he fall from the sky?”

The flowers were lilies, Su Qian’s favorite. The faint fragrance of the flowers healed her previous irritability. She found a vase to arrange the flowers and found a card on it.

“The assistant is good, she even knows to send you flowers.” Jin Lie looked at the joy between her eyebrows and said.

Su Qian didn’t explain much, she just hummed lightly.

At this moment, the phone suddenly rang. She casually put down the card and picked it up, and Jiang Zhan’s voice came from the other end, “Did you receive the flowers?”

Su Qian moved to one side, “I received them, you don’t have to be so polite.”

Jin Lie, with his sharp ears, heard that the person speaking on the other end was a man, and he couldn’t help but squint his eyes. He slowly got up and walked over, picked up the card——

【Thank you for your care that night, I hope you will like the flowers.】

That night?

Which night?

Three minutes passed, and the phone call was not over yet. Jin Lie threw away the card, walked behind Su Qian, bent down and whispered in her ear, “Wife, I’m hungry.”

Su Qian and the person on the other end of the phone were silent for a moment, and a few seconds later, Jiang Zhan slowly opened his mouth, “Is there someone with you?”

“……I have something else to do, I won’t talk anymore, bye.”

After hanging up the phone, Su Qian glared at Jin Lie with annoyance, “Are you sick?”

He dared to call her wife without even knowing who was on the other end.

“Yes, I am sick. Didn’t you just help me apply medicine?”

“……”

He definitely did it on purpose!

Because of this, no matter how angry she was, she had to suppress it.

“If you’re sick, you should rest properly.” She muttered quietly.

“My wife is receiving flowers from other men and talking on the phone with other men in front of me, how can I rest?” Jin Lie crossed his arms, “Tell me, who is it?”

With this posture, it seemed like a wife catching a mistress.

Originally, Su Qian was upright and aboveboard, but being questioned like this, she suddenly felt a bit guilty.

“Who? I just saved a person on the side of the road yesterday.”

“Oh? And then?”

“And then, didn’t they send a bouquet of flowers to express their gratitude?”

Jin Lie nodded and focused on the key point, “The person on the side of the road even knows your phone number and address.”

Su Qian choked, “Doing good deeds without leaving a name doesn’t mean you can’t leave a phone number. And this face of mine… even if I don’t leave anything, wouldn’t it be found out?”

Does this woman think he’s a fool? The tone of her speech is so familiar, how could it be a person picked up casually on the side of the road.

Jin Lie’s face darkened, and he reminded, “I hope you remember what I said before.”

Su Qian didn’t understand, why did this man always feel that he was being cuckolded. Does he naturally like green or does he have a special affection for hats^[1]In Chinese culture, “wearing a green hat” (戴绿帽子 or dài lǜ mào zǐ) is an idiomatic expression used when a woman cheats on her husband or boyfriend. And this phrase sounds similar to … Continue reading?

She sighed, walked over and gently patted his shoulder, “You should have some confidence in your looks. Although you have a poisonous mouth and a bad temper, and often act strangely, your face wins too much.”

She admitted that she is a face dog, if it weren’t for the huge impact this face brought to her, she would have quit long ago.

Jin Lie sneered, “Wake up, I have no confidence in you.”

“Why? Do you think I’m a fickle woman who doesn’t abide by the woman’s way in your eyes?” Su Qian looked disappointed, and her tone became depressed, “Don’t worry, mom is so good to me, if I really want to find someone else, I will find it after the divorce. For the sake of her old face, I won’t let your Jin family be ashamed.”

Heh, heh.

“Thank you very much then.”

These heartfelt words did not win Jin Lie’s happiness, but instead made him eat with a cold face throughout. The ugly look on his face was as if someone had poisoned his food.

“If you could smile more often, you would look a lot better.”

Upon hearing this, Jin Lie hooked up the corner of his mouth and showed a cold smile. Su Qian trembled at the sight and waved her hand, “Forget it, pretend I didn’t say anything.”

He’s so creepy, don’t smile again.

It was already past nine o’clock, Su Qian left a sentence “do as you please” and went to take a bath. She believed that with Jin Lie’s extremely intelligent brain, he would definitely understand her meaning.

But twenty minutes later when she finished washing, she found him sitting on the sofa looking at documents, completely at ease, without any intention of leaving.

“Cough… um, it’s almost half past nine.”

Jin Lie raised his head, “Since you’re done, it’s my turn.”

Saying that, he got up and wanted to go to the bathroom.

Su Qian was stunned and reached out to block his way, “Wait, aren’t you leaving?”

“I didn’t book a room.”

“What about Zhong Ning…”

Jin Lie took it for granted, “I’d rather sleep here than sleep with him.”

Prefer.

What do you prefer?!

You must feel so wronged!

Su Qian pointed, “Then you sleep on the sofa.”

Jin Lie reached out and messed up her hair, “Don’t flatter yourself, I didn’t plan to sleep with you in the first place.”

“…”

Bragging without shame, pah!

Jin Lie quickly finished taking a bath. When he came out, Su Qian was nestled on the sofa watching something.

“Aren’t you going to sleep yet, are you waiting for me?”

Su Qian looked up and saw that he was wearing a bathrobe, which made her breathe a sigh of relief. Although it was loosely draped on his body, at least it covered what should be covered.

“Wishful thinking, I’m looking at the scenes I have to shoot tomorrow.”

Jin Lie sat down next to her and glanced at it casually. There were many colorful notes on it, showing that she had put in a lot of effort usually.

“Do you like this role?”

“I quite like all the roles I’ve played.”

She was relatively lucky in that she basically hadn’t taken any bad roles. The small roles she had taken before were all characters with distinct personalities.

Su Qian glanced at Jin Lie, “Since you’re not leaving, can you help me go through the script?”

This was something Jin Lie had never done before, and he was quite interested. He immediately took it and flipped through it casually.

【Chen Chuan pins Ye Lin on the bed, saying that he will definitely not let her go today.】

A bed scene?

Why would there be a bed scene in a good cop and robber movie?!

Jin Lie’s Adam’s apple rolled slightly, “Isn’t this a cop and robber movie, why should there be a bed scene?”

Su Qian couldn’t understand his thought process, “Is it strange for a cop and robber movie to have a bed scene?”

Of course it’s strange!

It couldn’t be stranger!

It seems very necessary to have a good talk with the director about the script, it’s not right!
