So You're Such A Doctor Song - Chapter 163
Chapter 163: How Can He Be So Romantic?
Chi Yining’s legs trembled. In front of him, she subconsciously felt afraid. She didn’t know where Changqing found this savage man from.
Even her manager felt that if the two said one more line, this man would strangle them to death. “Yining, take a seat first.”
Her manager tugged Chi Yining and she took this opportunity to escape the situation. After she was seated, she glanced at the bodyguard who passed by again from the corner of her eyes and she still felt a little scared.
Upon seeing this, Wen Tong laughed secretly and went up to Changqing, saying softly, “Aye, where did Song Chuyi get this horrifying bodyguard from?”
Changqing cleared her throat and raised her voice purposely, “I heard that he used to be a mercenary in the Middle East but came back after he retired from the military. He’s not someone a normal person can hire.”
Chi Yining and her manager exchanged glances and saw incredulity in each other’s eyes.
“No way.” Wen Tong shocked and shoved Changqing. “Don’t boast.”
“I’m not boasting; it’s true,” Changqing said seriously. “When Song Chuchu told me in the morning, I was shocked too.”
“Song Chuchu is too impressive. With him around, if Zhao Zhu dares to bully you, just get him to strangle her to death,” Wen Tong said fiercely.
Changqing chuckled upon hearing that.
Suddenly, she recalled something and opened her purse quickly. This time, there were no Hong Kong Dollars but there was an extra card.
Changqing took the card out and kissed it roughly. She knew that Song Chuchu wouldn’t let her go there empty-handed this time.
She wondered how much money was on that card.
The moment they reached the Hong Kong International Airport, Changqing gave Song Chuyi a call. “Chuchu, how much money is in the card?”
“Five hundred thousand. The password to the card is your birthday.” Song Chuyi already expected her to call and said lightly, “If five hundred thousand isn’t enough for you to spend, use your own money.”
“I’ll be filming every day—why would I need to use so much money?” Changqing spoke humbly, but inside, she was so overjoyed that she almost jumped.
Five hundred thousand. That was so, so much—enough for her to shop till she dropped in Hong Kong.
In the past, whenever she went to Hong Kong, although she always shopped, Yan Lei only gave her a maximum of two hundred thousand and she would have to use her own money for the remainder. She couldn’t really bear to use her own money.
This time, she was using her husband’s money and she didn’t have to save at all.
After hanging up, Changqing still had some things to say that she was embarrassed to say over the phone. Hence, she sent a text of a few kissing emojis over with an additional message: Chuchu, you’re the world’s most generous husband.
In the hospital, Song Chuyi took a look at his phone and laughed.
This woman was so easily satisfied.
Five hundred thousand wasn’t considered a lot in a high-consumption city like Hong Kong. It was only that he couldn’t give her a limitless card. Otherwise, she would really spend as much as she could.
In the afternoon, Changqing went to see the production team along with Yan Molun.
Yan Molun’s tall stature put pressure on the bodyguards whom the other actors brought with them. Compounding that was Wen Tong shooting her big mouth off to whoever she met, bragging about Yan Molun being an ex-mercenary and killing people without blinking an eye.
Director Su felt scared upon hearing that and told Changqing privately, “Changqing, mm, this is the production team, after all. Don’t let your bodyguard do things casually. Considering his size, one move could either kill or seriously injure someone.”
Changqing quickly replied, “Director Su, don’t worry; I’ve given him instructions already. As long as no one provokes me, he definitely won’t do anything.”
That meant that if someone provoked her, her bodyguard would take action.
Director Su wiped off his sweat. When others were shooting, it would always be the actors feeling wary of the director, but for him, he always had to be wary of the actors. Were things easy for him?
At night, back at the hotel, Zhao Zhu tossed her hair in disdain. “What’s the big deal? Isn’t he just a mercenary? I can find one whenever I want; it’s just that there’s no need for it. However, who knows if she was telling the truth or not? I think she’s just boasting.”
Meng Peng also said with a smile, “I think so too. Would a Middle Eastern mercenary protect a small little host like her?”
“Brother Meng, Yan Molun was really a mercenary in the Middle East.” Just then, Cheng Gang, Zhao Zhu’s bodyguard who had been standing beside Meng Peng, spoke suddenly with a low tone, “I’ve seen him once before.”
Zhao Zhu frowned when she heard that and looked at him. Cheng Gang was also a bodyguard her father paid a high price to hire. He even came from a family of martial artists. If he testified to it, then it had to be true.
“The last time I saw him, it was when Li Shaobin brought him along to trash the Northern City’s Bao Lin Casino.” Cheng Gang said, “Bao Lin Casin’s top bodyguard had his arm maimed by Yan Molun easily. Then I heard other people mention him. In the past, when he was in the Middle East, he specifically worked as a hired killer. There were at least a few hundred, if not a thousand people, killed by his hands. Afterwards, he retired and he escorted a few rich merchants and government officials, and after that, he disappeared without a trace. I heard that many rich people wanted to hire him but they couldn’t manage to do so. To think he would actually come to protect Yan Changqing.”
Zhao Zhu felt spiteful. She didn’t think that Yan Molun would have such a backstory. “From what you said, Yan Molun is under Li Shaobin, right?”
“That… I’m not very sure about that either.” Cheng Gang frowned. “However, someone like Li Shaobin must know all kinds of people. The Li Family people isn’t to be easily trifled with either. With Li Shaobin and Yan Molun’s friendship, no one would really dare to do anything to Li Shaobin. Besides, Yan Molun is very loyal and isn’t one you can bribe with money. I feel that you should just concentrate on filming on this trip to Hong Kong, Miss Zhao.”
Meng Peng also nodded quickly the moment he heard it. “Right, right, focus on the filming. After all, there isn’t much of a feud between you and Yan Changqing.”
“Now, her second female lead has more scenes than I do, yet you still say there’s no feud.” Zhao Zhu shrieked angrily.
Meng Peng thought to himself: If you didn’t lace her makeup with poison, would things have come to this state?
Picking up such an artiste, he had to treat her as his ancestor. “Even if you want to take revenge, you shouldn’t be rushed. There will be a time for that. Besides, if something happened to Yan Changqing during filming this time, people wouldn’t need any evidence for all the fingers to point towards you. If I were to say, this time, not only do you have to film with Yan Changqing peacefully, but you also have to ensure that she completes this drama safe and sound.”
Zhao Zhu let out a cold laugh, not taking it to heart. She just didn’t believe there was no other way.
Changqing had no idea about Zhao Zhu’s thoughts.
However, ever since Yan Molun started protecting her, no matter what food or drink it was, Yan Molun would always check it before passing it to her hands.
That made Changqing feel like a fish in water throughout her days with the production team.
On the third day in Hong Kong, Jiang Duoyao called her. “Changqing, I’ve come to Hong Kong to attend a prize-giving ceremony. I’ll be free this evening, so let’s meet up.”
“Sure, sure.” The two hadn’t met in ages. Besides, Changqing always felt that she had a lot to tell Jiang Duoyao and immediately set to meet up with her at a food stall at ten.
The moment Wen Tong heard they actually even wanted to go to a food stall, she was shocked. “The two of you are insane, especially Jiang Duoyao. She’s so popular, yet she still wants to eat at a food stall, not even afraid that she could be recognized.”
“We’re not going to do anything bad; we’re just eating. Besides, the place we’re going is quite secluded.” Changqing waved her hand. Now that she had a bodyguard following her, she wasn’t afraid to go anywhere.
At night, after Changqing wrapped up her shoot, she proceeded to the food stall they agreed on.
Jiang Duoyao had already arrived and ordered a table-full of Hong Kong specialty delicacies.
There weren’t many people at the food stall. When Changqing rushed over, Jiang Duoyao saw the bodyguard that she brought along and sucked in a deep breath of cold air. “You’re capable; your bodyguard is way more formidable than mine. Your Dad arranged him for you? However, he’s a little too handsome, a little like Hollywood’s… what’s he called…? Tom Cruise.”
Changqing laughed awkwardly, holding onto her milk tea as she bit the straw.
“… Or was he arranged by Song Chuyi?” Seeing Changqing remaining silent, she asked again after a moment of silence.
“Mm…” Changqing nodded. Although she was happy Jiang Duoyao still asked her to come out like in the past, she felt that things weren’t as easygoing as before.
Jiang Duoyao sighed. “Looks like he’s really not bad to you.”
“Sorry…” Changqing was guilty.
“Why are you apologizing to me?” Jiang Duoyao shook her head. “Ruan Yang said it; it was because I told you before that Song Chuyi was incapable in that aspect and that was why you looked for him. However, I’m really quite curious—is he capable or not?”
Jiang Duoyao looked at her with a face full of questions.
Under those large, innocent eyes, Changqing’s thin face started to blush into an abnormal red colour and even her cheeks felt hot.
She quickly took two large mouthfuls of the iced milk tea.
“Oh, I get it. He must be very capable.” Jiang Duoyao chuckled as she smiled and held her wine glass as she said, “Come, come, come. Let’s celebrate you finally losing your virginity.”
“Cough” Changqing’s face was red from choking. She looked around and said with distress, “Softer.”
Jiang Duoyao shut her mouth quickly. After a while, seeing that nobody had taken notice of them, she said gloomily, “However, Song Chuyi is obviously very capable, so why did Guan Ying lie to me then?”
With regards to this, Changqing had felt glum. Song Chuyi said he had never touched Guan Ying, but he was obviously like a wolf, so Changqing had no idea what actually transpired between them.
However, the reason Guan Ying might’ve lied was analyzed by Ruan Yang before and Changqing could roughly understand it, but she didn’t want Jiang Duoyao to overthink it. So, she shook her head. “No idea.”
Jiang Duoyao pondered it for a while. Suddenly, she said, feeling a little upset, “Now between the few of us, I’m the only inexperienced one. Aye, in the past, I kept thinking that I had you for company. Now you’ve left me alone too.”
“Erm…”
“Aye, let me ask you—is it really very painful during your first time?” Jiang Duoyao suddenly lowered her volume as she asked.
Changqing rubbed the back of her head awkwardly. “That… it was very painful.”
“Then is it really as pleasurable as we see on television after the pain’s gone?” Jiang Duoyao became more interested as she asked.
Changqing was about to break down. Could they stop talking about this topic? “Why do you keep asking me? You should ask Ruan Yang.”
“Aiyo, because only the two of us are rookies. Besides, it’s quite embarrassing to ask them.” Jiang Duoyao asked excitedly, “Does it hurt? Does it hurt?”
“In any case… it only went in after several tries,” Changqing replied with embarrassment. She had to give in. Jiang Duoyao was just like her—outwardly cold and inwardly passionate. They had evil intentions but never the guts to carry them out.
“Dang! I didn’t think that Dr. Song would actually be quite big despite looking quite skinny… Looks like I should find a smaller one in the future so it won’t be that painful.”
