Reborn! Caught Up by the Critically Obsessed Actress - Chapter 38

“I understand that you don’t like me, and it’s perfectly normal for you to refuse.”

Just as Song Qingxing was about to think that the Movie Queen Xie was being understanding, Xie Jingcheng immediately uttered a whisper that sounded like the devils.

“However, we have an agreement, don’t we?”

Xie Jingcheng suddenly turned around. They were currently on a tree-lined avenue on campus, not far from the nanny van. Xie Jingcheng did not own a property nearby.

Therefore, the car had been driven over from the company under the Xie family’s name. Even as a company vehicle, it didn’t look inferior when parked next to Song Qingxing’s million-dollar nanny van.

Warm fingertips touched her cheek.

Xie Jingcheng had completely let herself go at this moment. Love is love; there was no need for her to suppress it.

She would kiss when she wanted to, and embrace when she wanted to.

Although it was a bit of a slap in the face to her past self, Xie Jingcheng didn’t mind having her face swell, because Song Qingxing’s charm was indeed greater than she had imagined.

“You are mine.”

“So before you fall for me, you cannot like anyone else.”

Song Qingxing: …

Wow, so domineering!

She couldn’t help but inwardly make a small. If this were anyone else, Song Qingxing would certainly have said it out loud.

But while others might be clowns, Xie Jingcheng was absolutely not. She genuinely had the capability to back up her words, especially if she pursued her relentlessly.

Song Qingxing didn’t know how long she could guard her heart, perhaps not even a month. After all, sometimes people are just that fragile, and just that susceptible to loneliness and emotional emptiness.

Otherwise, why would so many people, unable to withstand loneliness, engage in affairs?

“Mhm.”

Song Qingxing merely nodded.

Yu Zhi, who was behind them, didn’t dare to get closer. Xie Jingcheng had only brought one or two bodyguards this time, no assistant.

The two bodyguards held cigarettes between their fingers, deliberately walking slowly. Their leather shoes made a crisp “da-da” sound on the campus brick road.

Yu Zhi was carrying their belongings.

Have you ever experienced this feeling? In front of you is your superior engaged in a romantic moment, and behind you are two bodyguards like hungry wolves.

She felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand up completely. In the past, when she walked on a tree-lined path like this late at night, she worried about a large, hideous-faced ghost jumping out of the bushes.

But now, while Yu Zhi had a complete sense of security, the pressure was equally intense.

Fortunately, this stretch of road was not long. Soon they reached the car. Xie Jingcheng sent the two bodyguards back to the car they had arrived in.

She then followed Song Qingxing and boarded the black nanny van with her.

“How is the hotel you’re staying at?”

Xie Jingcheng took out her phone, sending messages to someone. She was wearing contact lenses today, which lessened her usual cool and distant look.

Instead, she gave off more of a dominant CEO vibe.

Song Qingxing didn’t know why she was thinking this way—it was terrible!

“It’s alright. It’s not a five-star hotel. The company pays for it, so I don’t have the luxury of choosing.”

Song Qingxing answered languidly, then, as if realizing something, quickly tried to make up for it.

“If you find it uncomfortable, we can move to a five-star hotel. It’s just that it might be difficult to find one near the school on short notice.”

Seeing the little bunny so frantically trying to make amends, Xie Jingcheng couldn’t help but want to smile, but she merely shook her head.

“No need. Staying with you is good enough.”

“I looked through the script today. I can run lines with you before you start filming.”

Xie Jingcheng opened her phone album, which showed pictures of the script she had taken. The script was densely covered with detailed annotations written in red pen.

Song Qingxing leaned over to look, momentarily moved beyond words. She hadn’t expected that after just a casual mention, the other person would be so thoughtful.

It seemed that Xie Jingcheng genuinely liked her.

She just wondered if Xie Jingcheng was a “face-lover” or something else?

But when it came to looks, the other person wasn’t any less attractive than herself. Perhaps this was true affection.

Song Qingxing was conflicted and hesitant. She decided not to overthink it; otherwise, she would use up all her brain cells and become mentally slow.

People say a bridge will be there when you come to it ship to the bridge, it will naturally straighten.

She should probably be the same, although it was highly likely that the ship would naturally bend when it came to the bridge.

“Thank you for the trouble.”

Song Qingxing expressed her gratitude. However, Xie Jingcheng just shook her head and leaned in completely. The distance was so close that Song Qingxing could even smell the faint, almost entirely dissipated perfume on her body.

The subtle fragrance lingered around her nose.

“You don’t need to thank me. Thanks to you, An Wenqing hasn’t bothered me for days.”

Xie Jingcheng nestled her whole body on Song Qingxing’s shoulder, speaking softly. Her breath was warm on Song Qingxing’s neck.

It was ticklish.

“So, I should be the one thanking you.”

Song Qingxing felt her heart beating very fast. It had been like this for the past few days. Anyone unaware might think she had a heart problem.

But only she knew that she was falling.

…

The car returned to the hotel, and the two of them got out.

Song Qingxing had only walked a few steps when she noticed the two bodyguards getting out of the other car.

It seemed they were staying here tonight too.

After all, Xie Jingcheng was staying with her, so the bodyguards naturally followed Xie Jingcheng wherever she went.

The two bodyguards were also carrying things.

“Miss.”

Their attitude was respectful. Even the burly, bearded man didn’t have a fierce look in his eyes, only reverence.

Indeed, there are only two things in this world that command respect: superior status and unparalleled wealth. Xie Jingcheng possessed both, so her bodyguards were unusually submissive and not fierce at all.

“Thank you.”

Xie Jingcheng said only one sentence before turning around. She held the gift in one hand, and her free left hand reached out, seeming to want to hold Song Qingxing’s hand.

However, her fingers dangled in the air, unable to grasp, as there was still some distance between them.

Song Qingxing hesitated for a moment, then actively walked over, letting Xie Jingcheng’s slender fingertips hook into her palm.

“How come you have something in your hand, and you don’t even know how to hold someone’s hand?”

Song Qingxing said with a playful smile. Xie Jingcheng just lowered her head and remained silent.

“I don’t know if you will like this gift.”

She had carefully selected it, but sometimes the gift you love might not be loved by your lover or your friend.

The feeling of disappointment is unpleasant, but Xie Jingcheng still trusted her judgment—Song Qingxing should like jewels.

No beautiful girl could refuse something shiny and sparkling.

Right?

Xie Jingcheng wasn’t entirely sure.

Because her background was too unique, Xie Jingcheng had grown tired of all those dazzling, pearl-and-jewel-laden things since she was very young.

If Song Qingxing could have overheard Xie Jingcheng’s inner thoughts, she would definitely have given a tǔcáo or two.

Movie Queen Xie, do you know you are humblebragging right now!

The two walked back to the hotel. Song Qingxing closed the door, and before she could take any further action, Xie Jingcheng handed over the gift box.

“Open it.”

“If you like it, we can take things a step further today.”

Xie Jingcheng pulled something out of her clothing pocket. Song Qingxing stood on her tiptoes to look, and her ears instantly flushed crimson.

That… that was a transparent finger condom!
