“Take it now so that you can go to bed early.”
“Got it.” With that, Xiao Qing entered the room.
She had just closed the door when her phone rang. She took a look and saw that it was Shen Mubei!
Why was he calling her? Was he going to question her?
No, she wasn’t the only one at fault in this matter. He had also taken the initiative. Both of them were at fault. They were even, so why did he want to question her?
When she was done thinking, the phone stopped ringing.
Immediately, the phone rang again. It was still Shen Mubei calling.
Xiao Qing felt as though there was a bad itch all over her body. She wanted to answer the call, but she hesitated. She was afraid that after she answered it, he would tell her righteously that she should take the morning after pill or say something else unpleasant.
Instead of listening to those words, it was better not to answer the call. At the thought of this, Xiao Qing immediately stuffed her phone under her pillow and went into the bathroom to soak in the bathtub.
Just like that, after she was done bathing, not only did she not take the hangover medicine, but she also did not take the morning after pill. She lay on the bed and fell asleep in a daze.
The next day, when she woke up and brushed her teeth, Mrs. Xiao said, “Sigh, Mubei called last night and asked if you were back. Mubei is such a responsible child. I heard that he went to the event location last night. It’s so nice that he called to ask about you. If it weren’t for the fact that you don’t like him, I would’ve arranged for the two of you to go on a blind date.”
“Mom, don’t mess around! It’s impossible between us!” Xiao Qing immediately said. “Besides, he has a girlfriend. It’s just that he hasn’t brought her home yet.
Don’t cause trouble.”
“I know, I know.”
After Qiao Weiyang arrived at the set, she filmed her scenes in the morning. At noon, she took a lunch box and realized that Shen Mubei was also there.
As far as she knew, Shen Mubei had always been generous to his subordinates and had never interfered in the specific matters of filming. Why had he become addicted to visiting the set recently? Was this place so good?
On second thought, since Zhao Xinshu was on set, Shen Mubei might be here to accompany her. There was nothing strange about it.
She sat down and lowered her head to eat.
Another lunch box was placed in front of her. Shen Mubei’s voice sounded. “Can I sit here?”
“It’s up to you, President Shen.” Qiao Weiyang smiled. This was a public area with air conditioning. Anyone could sit here.
Qiao Weiyang didn’t like the smell of food in the dressing room, so she chose to eat here.
Shen Mubei sat down and slowly ate the lunch box in his hand. It was a little difficult for him to eat it. It was obvious that he was not used to the taste.
Qiao Weiyang ate the food seriously.
Just then, Shen Mubei asked, “Xiao Qing didn’t come?”
“Huh?” Qiao Weiyang looked up. “Are you asking whether Xiao Qing came to the set today?”
“Yes. Didn’t she come here before?” Shen Mubei had a businesslike expression.
“She doesn’t have a position here? The filming schedule can’t be delayed.”
“She was just here to visit. She doesn’t work here,” Qiao Weiyang explained.
“President Shen, why are you looking for her?”
Shen Mubei shook his head. “I’m not.”
Qiao Weiyang felt that he was strange today, but she couldn’t tell what was strange about him.
However, since it concerned Xiao Qing, she was very cautious. She would never mention anything if Shen Mubei did not take the initiative to speak.
She had just lowered her head when she heard Shen Mubei ask, “Do the two of you have something against me?”
Qiao Weiyang choked on a mouthful of soup. Shen Mubei handed her a tissue gentlemanly. She took it and covered her mouth. Seeing that Shen Mubei was being businesslike again, her gaze seemed to be saying, ‘As a leader, I hope you won’t have any prejudice and continue to have a peaceful cooperation with me.’ He was just a capitalist in her eyes.
“President Shen, you’re thinking too much. How could we have any objections against you? We’re just focused on our jobs. We’re loyal to our professions. We just have to cooperate with our colleagues and be responsible to our superiors.”
Shen Mubei was deep in thought. There was a question he wanted to ask, but he could not bring himself to voice out.
Qiao Weiyang was cold and indifferent. She took work more seriously than anything else.
As for Xiao Qing… He reached out and pressed the space between his eyebrows heavily with a solemn expression. He did not know why he suddenly had such an entanglement with Xiao Qing.
He was clearly not a lustful person. It could even be said that he was very indifferent, but he did such a thing with Xiao Qing.
He was sure that he was completely sober at that time. He did not drink too much and was not drugged. He was so sober that every feeling and touch was still vivid in his mind.
It was so vivid that… he wanted to pull Xiao Qing into his arms again and replay what had happened.
Seeing that he was deep in thought, Qiao Weiyang tugged at her collar in frustration. She didn’t know what he was troubled about and didn’t ask. She just lowered her head and continued to eat silently.
When Zhao Xinshu heard that Shen Mubei had come to the set again, she was so happy that she did not even eat. She checked her makeup before going over.
As she walked, she reminded her manager, “Go and order food from Hua Man Lou. Mubei hates the smell of rice the most. It has to be mild. You have to order the prawns he likes.”
“Got it, Xinshu. I’ll go over quickly and place the order.”
Zhao Xinshu ran over happily.
Unexpectedly, the first thing she saw was Shen Mubei sitting opposite Qiao Weiyang with a lunch box in front of him.
Although he hadn’t finished the food in the lunch box, it was obvious that he had eaten some of it.
Her heart sank to the bottom. After a while, she smiled and shouted, “Mubei.”
When Shen Mubei saw her, an unusual emotion flashed across his eyes. He stood up.
“Why are you suddenly eating lunch boxes? The dishes from Hua Man Lou are about to be sent over. If you have work to discuss with Weiyang, why don’t I get someone to bring them over and Weiyang can join us too?”
“We’re done discussing,” Shen Mubei said coldly. “Let’s go.”
Zhao Xinshu glared at Qiao Weiyang. Qiao Weiyang really wanted to seduce Shen Mubei. What was wrong with her? She actually dared to do that in front of his girlfriend. Did she think that Zhao Xinshu didn’t hate her enough?
Qiao Weiyang watched the two of them leave. She was immersed in her own thoughts. Once they were far away, she lowered her head and continued to eat.
Zhao Xinshu followed Shen Mubei. Seeing that his expression could not be read, she quickly said in a low voice, “Let’s go eat first.”
“I’ve already eaten. Go ahead.” Shen Mubei sat down in her dressing room.
The manager had already placed the exquisite dishes on the dining table before leaving.
“Eat a little more. I ordered prawns. The other dishes are also your favorites.”
After saying that, Zhao Xinshu washed her hands, peeled two prawns, and placed them in the bowl in front of him.
Shen Mubei did not touch his chopsticks. Instead, he said, “Eat first. I have something to tell you after you’re done..”
