Showbiz Scandal: The Official Announcement of My Ex and Myself-Chapter 167: The Maniac Who Knocked on the Door at Midnight
After practicing martial arts moves for half a day, when the film crew served food, Yu Xia devoured a lunch box and a bowl of chicken soup with pork stomach brought by Xie Qingci.
Xie Qingci didn’t eat much though.
He sweated a lot and went back to shower before returning, by then the food was cold. Fortunately, his assistant ordered a separate dinner for him, no main course, just chicken breast and protein.
She glanced at it and asked him, "What are you going to do, build muscle?"
Consuming large amounts of protein is usually for muscle building.
Xie Qingci nodded, "There’s a scene later where I have to show my upper body."
Yu Xia raised her eyebrows high.
She knew that scene because it’s a scene where they act opposite each other, and he’ll need to be whipped by her.
Ugh, just thinking about it is exciting.
"So you’re going to train your muscles temporarily?" Her gaze seemed to penetrate his clothes, scanning him as if nothing happened, "Training too hard won’t look good, you’re still a boy band member."
Xie Qingci put down the piece of chicken breast he had picked up and gave her a deep look.
Yu Xia didn’t quite understand his look at first, but by evening, she understood completely.
Xie Qingci, as if a visitor during the New Year, knocked on her room door as usual at night.
He came in wearing a black baseball cap and all black, looking like he was meeting secretly with a secret organization for some shady transaction.
When they met, her first line was, "Why are you here again? You’re not afraid?"
Xie Qingci gave her a very detailed answer.
He grabbed her hand and tucked it inside his shirt, letting her palm rest on his lower abdomen, pausing as if waiting for her to feel it, then he led her hand all the way up, and stopped.
"Discussing my physique with my girlfriend."
Yu Xia: "!"
This won’t do!
She immediately wanted to withdraw her hand, but it was held down by Xie Qingci.
"You don’t want to touch? Don’t you like it a lot?"
"Like... don’t do this! I’m a decent person!"
Xie Qingci: "Then please don’t pinch."
She coughed once, simply let both hands go inside.
"Why not, this is my territory. So warm."
He looked down at her, "Didn’t you say you’re a decent person?"
"Enjoying the benefits of one’s territory is the reward that a decent person deserves." She said brazenly, at the end even moving closer, hugging his waist with both hands to seek more warmth.
Xie Qingci was chilled by her hands, gasped softly, seeing her enjoying it, reached out to hold her again.
"Sis, let’s first talk, don’t you like me building muscle?"
Yu Xia refused to admit, "I never said that."
"Really, if I train more, you won’t like it, right?"
After all, over time, he has learned her preferences.
Doesn’t like too skinny bodies, doesn’t like muscles too much either, occasionally when the abs are just right, she would kiss them and praise him without reservation, if not to her liking, she would look at them regretfully and sigh, making him twitch.
Yu Xia cleared her throat, "You make it sound like I’m very shallow."
"To be honest."
"...Okay, indeed, more training won’t look good, after all, you’re still an idol, the general public appreciates idols who are fair and thin, muscles too developed would look too different from others, it won’t be harmonious with the team."
Every word was truthful, every word was thinking of him.
Xie Qingci nodded, "Right, you won’t like it, fine, I won’t train."
"...Why do you talk to me when you’ve already decided without consulting me, Xie Qingci?"
He chuckled softly, lowered his head and kissed her.
Yu Xia had already understood from experience, no matter what was said, in the end, it would turn into a passionate kiss; any topic was just an excuse, he came for the cuddling and kissing.
While the two were kissing passionately in the room, suddenly there was a knock on the door from outside.
Yu Xia stiffened, patted Xie Qingci, he released her breathily, but quickly lingered back between her lips and tongue, and his movements became fiercer.
She opened her eyes wide and struggled a few times, couldn’t push him away, couldn’t bite him.
At this time, the person outside knocked again, followed by a low "Yu Xia."
Clearly a man’s voice.
This time Xie Qingci really stopped, but Yu Xia was sweating on her forehead, holding him and not letting go.
The hand resting on her lower back gently stroked her, he said nothing, his dark gaze fell on her lips, then he softly said, "Go, open the door and see, maybe he’s looking for you for something?"
Her back tingled, but thinking about it, it was only the second day of shooting, she hadn’t had much interaction with other male actors, maybe it was something important.
She faced Xie Qingci’s gaze, walked step by step to the door. Just then the person knocked again, she opened the door a crack, looked at the visitor.
Not bad looking, not an actor from the crew, looked a bit familiar but couldn’t recall the name.
"Who are you? What’s up?"
The visitor smiled confidently, spoke with a deep voice, "There’s something to discuss with you. Can I come in?"
She was surprised, then frowned tightly, "Do I know you? Say what you have to say."
"I’m from the crew downstairs, we met in another crew before, you even gave me your number, did you forget?"
At that moment, in the dark corridor, Yu Xia felt her back covered under the burning sun.
She immediately countered, "That’s impossible. You say you have my number, show it to me."
The visitor really took out a phone, and sure enough, her number was there.
This time she really felt cold, "There are quite a few who have my number, definitely not me who gave it actively, what exactly do you want?"
"We had a good conversation before in the crew, I liked you back then, can we not..."
"Get lost." She slammed the door closed.
Turning back, Xie Qingci still stood in the middle of the room, his clothes disordered, not arranged, frowning as if pondering something.
She walked over, leaned into his arms, whispered, "This guy has issues, I don’t know him, didn’t give him my number."
He made a sound, tilted her chin up, their eyes met, he said, "I’m not someone who can’t tell right from wrong. But he deliberately tried to get involved with you, and quite possibly won’t give up, still waiting outside."
"So?"
"So I’m staying here tonight."
After saying this, he asked her opinion, "Is it okay?"
Asked casually, as if not caring much about her answer.
Yu Xia bit her lip, thinking for a moment, that strange person outside might really be waiting, leaving now would be inappropriate. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
So she nodded, "Okay."
Xie Qingci smiled, "Sis is so nice."
Then the next second he restrained his expression, wrapped his arms around her, threw her onto the bed. Then leaned over, sealed her lips, reached out and "pop," the room fell into darkness.
Thick night enveloped them, warmth spread, subtle motions continued, but only one line was distinctly heard.
"Sweetheart, no one loves you more than I do."
