âUm... Iâm calling to ask if youâre here yet.â Ye Shengge suddenly realized something. âHave you had dinner yet? No, if itâs in France... it should be lunch.â
Ye Shengge had done a little calculation and it was around noon in Paris.
Ji Shiting nodded and said, âLunch just ended. And?â
And...?
Ye Shengge was dazed. She suddenly remembered how this man oftentimes didnât mean what he said.
âAnd... I miss you.â Ye Shengge covered her face and said. She couldnât help despising herself for being shameless. âThatâs the reason I called you.â
Ji Shiting paused and smiled, âReally?â
Ye Shengge was encouraged by his chuckle.
âItâs true! As true as steel!â Ye Shengge added. âYou have to take care and rest properly. My heart will ache if you get too tired.â
Her tone was so sweet that it sounded fake.
However, Ji Shiting couldnât help gulping.
âOkay, Iâll remember that.â He sounded amused. âWhat time are you filming tomorrow?â
âSix...â Ye Shengge said, and her ears started to burn.
âSleep early.â He smiled again. âGoodnight.â
âOkay... Bye!â Ye Shengge hung up the phone.
She held her burning face, and her heart pounded fast.
She didnât know whether it was her imagination, but Ji Shiting chuckled a couple of times on the phone tonight. Was it because of those sweet words?
Thatâs right. She was getting better at coaxing him. She knew that oftentimes this manâs harsh words werenât heartfelt. As long as she showed her concern for him, he would be easy to talk to. That had been the reason she blurted out those sweet words, but why was she blushing?
Besides, it felt strangely like she had been teased...
The more she thought about it, the more unsettled she became. Ye Shengge covered her head with the blanket and ordered herself to sleep.
...
The next day, Ye Shengge arrived at the set early. The first scene was hers.
After three scenes, she breathed a sigh of relief and went back to the makeup room to rest. However, Mu Xiaoya walked out from the opposite side and blocked her way, given her a look of sarcasm.
âMove aside.â Ye Shengge wasnât in the mood to argue with her.
Mu Xiaoya adjusted the necklace on her neck and chuckled. âActually, Iâm curious. Which rich and ugly person couldnât even get a newbie and had to choose you? Itâs been hard on you, to actually be able to sleep soundly at night. But then again, would there be any outstanding men that would like you? Youâve been with your brother for three years, yet he hasnât even touched you once has he?â
She sounded smug and vicious.
âI know, because Mu Yanhuai is sleeping with you,â Ye Shengge said. âI wonder if the rich second-generation heir whoâs been chasing you knows that youâre sleeping with your brother.â
Mu Xiaoyaâs face stiffened, then she sneered, âThatâs just a rumor. What evidence do you have?â
Ye Shengge looked at her and smiled. âDidnât Mu Yanhuai tell you? I replaced the video of the Prime Prize awards show. I still have the complete version so you better stay away from me. Otherwise, Iâll show it to your fans and show them how vile their goddess is.â
