Chapter 86
Chapter 86
Since that day, Shen Yang never mentioned pursuing her again.
He took a step back, and Ji Ning also gave in.
The two of them seemed to have really returned to the mode of getting along as ordinary friends, and from time to time they could still chat and joke with each other on WeChat like before.
It's just that Ji Ning's way of scolding him has gradually changed from "You're so annoying" to -
"Why are you so annoying? You deserve to live a long life."
Therefore, Shen Yang's enjoyment of being scolded by her rose to another level.
Once again, the filming went on until midnight. Ji Ning leaned back in the car seat, half asleep. From the corner of her eye, she noticed Ning Ning's expression of anger and frustration. She raised her eyes and asked, "What's wrong?"
Ning Ning hesitated to speak, but finally couldn't hold back her anger: "Li Yankai's fans are too much! What do they know? They are just lying there, wishing they were being persecuted!"
Ji Ning knew what she meant.
Ever since it was decided to shoot according to the original script, she has become the target of public criticism.
Li Yankai's fans almost all believe that she has a backer and is using Li Yankai as a background to set off her, so that her private messages on Weibo are almost filled with inexplicable insults and ridicule every day.
But she wasn't one to be affected by outside comments, so she didn't take it to heart. She even patted Ningning's shoulder in a good mood and said, "Don't be angry. I'll give you paid leave after we wrap up."
"Thank you, Sister Ning." Ningning's face finally showed a bright smile again. "But I really don't want to leave. The grilled bullfrog here is so delicious. I don't know when I can eat it again."
It would have been fine if she hadn't mentioned it, but as soon as she did, Ji Ning's stomach growled.
While the agent was away, Ji Ning whispered, "Why don't you buy some when we get to the hotel? I really want to eat it too."
Ningning naturally had no reason to refuse.
So as soon as the car stopped at the hotel entrance, Ningning got out first and ran towards the food street not far away.
Ji Ning put on the baseball cap next to him, looked down at his phone, and walked into the hotel lobby.
When I reached the elevator, a message from Shen Yang popped up on my phone: [Arrived at the hotel, want to have a midnight snack together?]
Ji Ning stopped in her tracks, and her first reaction was that she should not have let Ning Ning buy bullfrog.
When this thought popped up, Ji Ning realized that she seemed to be looking forward to his arrival.
【OK. 】
After she sent the message, before she had time to look back at the door, someone patted her shoulder. Thinking it was Shen Yang, she turned around with a smile, but saw a pair of eyes full of anger.
The person was wearing a black mask and a black baseball cap, so her appearance couldn't be seen clearly, but she was shorter than her. Judging from her features, she looked like a girl.
Ji Ning was stunned for a moment, and before she could react, she saw her holding a glass in her right hand and pouring it forward.
Transparent liquid splashed out of the cup, and Ji Ning instinctively stepped back. At the same time, a tall figure suddenly rushed out from the side and blocked her way.
He faced her, held her in his arms, and protected her tightly with his body.
The warm body temperature made Ji Ning, who was stiff all over, react quickly. She shouted loudly: "Security!"
The security guard at the door ran in immediately.
The other party then started to panic and ran towards the elevator as if she was lost, but the elevator did not arrive for a long time and she was quickly controlled by two security guards.
The hat and mask were forcibly taken off, and Ji Ning could see her face clearly. She was a little girl who looked underage. She struggled in vain, lowered her head, and her face was so red that it seemed like it was burning. It was unclear whether it was because of anger or panic.
Ji Ning didn't want to care about what was happening over there anymore. She anxiously turned Shen Yang's body around, lifted up his T-shirt with trembling hands, and checked his back.
Fortunately, it’s just water.
It's not a corrosive liquid.
She breathed a sigh of relief and heard him ask, "Are you okay?"
Ji Ning was not moved at all. Instead, she kicked him: "Why are you pretending to be a hero? What if there is sulfuric acid in her bottle?"
Shen Yang smiled faintly: "It's better to hurt my back than your face, right?"
Ji Ning lowered her head and stared at the wet spot, feeling uncomfortable.
Shen Yang asked again: "Do you know him?"
Ji Ning shook her head: "But I can probably guess a little bit. Maybe it's a crazy fan."
The hotel lobby manager also rushed over and helped call the police while asking about the two people's situation.
After a while, the police arrived. The little girl seemed to realize the seriousness of the matter. She trembled and cried, saying that she had just seen Ji Ning and remembered that the big fans said that she relied on the power behind her to bully her idol, so she impulsively wanted to teach Ji Ning a lesson. Now she knows she was wrong.
Because no substantial harm was caused and the other party was a minor, the police gave her a lecture. Seeing that her apology was sincere, Ji Ning did not pursue the matter any further.
When I returned to the room, it was already past midnight.
The clothes on Shen Yang's back were still half wet. Ji Ning pointed and asked, "Do you want to change clothes?"
"I didn't bring it."
"I have it here." Ji Ning opened the wardrobe and took out a black T-shirt. Judging from the size, it was obviously a boy's shirt.
She handed it to him, but Shen Yang didn't take it, his eyes filled with a slight grievance.
"Why do you have men's clothes here?"
Ji Ning was stunned for a moment and explained simply: "A friend of mine runs a trendy brand and sent me a few pieces, both men's and women's. I didn't need the men's clothes, so I threw them in the closet."
She didn't know why she needed to explain herself, but Chen Yang seemed to have this ability to make her soften her heart again and again, and lower her bottom line again and again.
Shen Yang's expression instantly turned from gloomy to cheerful. He took the clothes and said, "Let me borrow your bathroom to take a shower."
"Why do you need to take a shower?"
"Who knows what kind of water this is? What if it's foot washing water?"
"..." Ji Ning waved her hand, "Whatever you want."
Shen Yang turned and went into the bathroom, and came out again not long after.
He wore a black T-shirt on the upper body and his own casual pants on the lower body.
He was drying his hair with a hair dryer, so Ji Ning planned to go to the bathroom to help him wash his clothes.
But when she walked past him, he grabbed her arm and the sound of the hair dryer suddenly stopped. He pulled the clothes out of her hand and threw them on the table behind him.
"You don't have to wash it."
"It's just a matter of convenience." Ji Ning's right hand went around his side, trying to grab the clothes, but she never thought that because of this action, the distance between the two of them was shortened in an instant.
Her face was almost pressed against his chest.
When he lowered his head, his chin just brushed against the top of her head.
Her heart skipped a beat. Ji Ning's arm stiffened. Just as she was about to pull it back, Shen Yang took advantage of the situation and grabbed her wrist. He leaned over, slowly tightening his grip and resting his forehead on her shoulder. His voice was filled with relief at having survived a disaster: "You scared me to death."
It happened suddenly just now, and Ji Ning was fully focused on whether he was injured or not. She didn't feel anything about his hug.
But it was different at this moment. The faint scent of freesia shower gel on his body was like an aphrodisiac in the midnight. Ji Ning felt as if her whole body was about to burn.
She suppressed her inner fluctuations and said coldly: "Can you please stop being so desperate all day long?"
"Oh." Shen Yang was quite obedient and immediately changed his words, "I'm so scared."
Ji Ning: "..."
Ji Ning attributed the throbbing that night to the suspension bridge effect.
She accurately realized that her feelings for Chen Yang could no longer be defined as "friends" not long after, the night before the filming was completed.
According to the script, she was supposed to have a light kissing scene with the male lead the next day.
Ji Ning had never filmed a kissing scene before. It was not that she was unwilling to do so, but the few films she had filmed before were all dramas and suspense films, which basically did not involve emotional scenes, so there was no opportunity to film a kissing scene.
But at this moment, looking at the prompts on the script, Ji Ning's first reaction was: I wonder if Shen Yang would care.
If you really only consider him a friend, why bother about whether he cares or not?
Just as Ji Ning was stunned by the scene, the doorbell rang.
Shen Yang held up a cake and asked her, "Want to eat?"
Ji Ning made way for him and waited for him to come in. As she closed the door, she complained, "You always bring me food. I've gained two pounds recently and I need to lose weight again."
Shen Yang put the cake on the coffee table and looked back at her: "I have never seen a girl thinner than you, why are you losing weight?"
"You're just kidding." Ji Ning didn't believe it at all, but that didn't stop her from happily opening the cake box.
Shen Yang sat beside her, holding a knife in his bony hands and slowly cutting the cake.
Ji Ning lowered her head and her eyes fell on his slender fingers. She suddenly remembered that at the very beginning of the story, she seemed to be attracted by this pair of beautiful hands.
"What are you looking at?"
Shen Yang's words interrupted her thoughts.
Ji Ning bit her fork, her eyes wandering and unfocused, and whispered, "Your hands are beautiful."
Shen Yang followed her gaze and looked down at his hands, chuckling softly, "Is there something else about me that doesn't look good?"
Ji Ning raised her head and her eyes met his.
She thought, that’s not true, his eyes are also very beautiful, with deep double eyelids, narrow eye corners, and dark pupils that make people unconsciously fall into them.
Those thin lips are even more beautiful.
Although it was a filming, Ji Ning couldn't help but feel a little regretful. She had never tasted the feeling of kissing someone she liked, but because of work, she had to kiss a man with whom she had no contact except for work.
What if... and Chen Yang?
The moment this thought came into her mind, Ji Ning was frightened herself.
What's even more frightening is that she found that she didn't reject this.
Taking the cake from his hand, Ji Ning took a bite hesitantly. The light aroma of cream filled her mouth, and the sweet taste did not divert her attention. Instead, it made the urge in her heart burn more and more.
She has always been a casual person. Once she makes up her mind, she is unlikely to regret it.
Ji Ning's action of putting down the cake caught Shen Yang's attention. He asked in a gentle voice, "Is it not tasty?"
Ji Ning shook her head and looked up at him: "I have a kissing scene tomorrow."
Shen Yang's Adam's apple rolled, he looked away, and put a piece of cake on the plate in his hand: "Don't tell me, this is your job, and it's your freedom."
This person clearly cares a lot, but he pretends to be magnanimous.
Ji Ning then added, "I haven't kissed anyone yet, so I don't know how to take a photo."
Shen Yang's right hand trembled, and the fork in his hand fell onto the cake.
He simply put the cake down, leaned back, and asked her lazily, "So?"
"So..." Ji Ning grabbed his tie and pulled him forward. As her lips touched his, she said stubbornly, "Please help me try the show first."
Even though she had never eaten pork, she had seen pigs run. Ji Ning had seen many kissing scenes in various movies, but when she applied the theory to practice, she found that it was not that simple.
Especially when the other party does not respond at all.
She looks like a gangster.
The action of stroking his lips slowed down. Frustrated, Ji Ning's heart was full of curse words. Her hands were against his chest. She was about to move away, but her lips were less than a centimeter away when a pair of strong hands touched the back of her head and pressed her head back.
This time, Shen Yang took the initiative.
Ji Ning secretly opened her eyes a little, her long eyelashes close to him. He closed his eyes and kissed her very passionately.
The room was so quiet that Ji Ning seemed to hear a violent heartbeat, but she didn't know whose it was.
Gradually, her attention was drawn to the lingering taste of cream between her lips and teeth, and she could no longer care about anything else.
After kissing for almost a minute, Ji Ning's cheeks flushed and she was a little breathless. She found that his lips moved away a little. She thought it was over, but then she heard him panting and asked, "How deep do you want to kiss in tomorrow's scene?"
Ji Ning lowered her eyes, stiffened her neck and said, "French kiss."
"Oh." Shen Yang kissed her again, using the tip of his tongue to pry open her teeth.
Ji Ning's body gradually became limp, and she fell back on the sofa unconsciously. Shen Yang placed his right hand under her head, and his left hand on her waist. His thumb gently stroked the skin on her waist through the thin fabric.
Ji Ning felt a wave of tremors in his body, and his right hand wrinkled his tie into wrinkles.
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Yang finally stopped, their lips only inches away. He looked down at her, his eyes slightly red, his voice hoarse, "Is this enough?"
Ji Ning shook her head: "I haven't learned it yet."
Shen Yang laughed and kissed her again.
She seemed to have forgotten that as an investor, he had read every page of the script.
The next day, Shen Yang did not show up at the filming site.
But it was not until Ji Ning arrived that she found out that the team of the male lead Li Yankai asked to delete the kissing scene because it was strongly protested by fans after the notice was leaked.
This was exactly what she wanted.
After a busy day of filming, Ji Ning returned to the hotel holding a bouquet of flowers.
They will be able to leave the film and television city tomorrow. When opening the door, Ji Ning felt very relaxed and hummed a little tune with light steps. However, as soon as she changed into slippers and looked up, she saw a man with a serious face.
It was she who asked Ning Ning to open the door for Shen Yang first, so Ji Ning was not surprised to see him sitting on the sofa.
As if nothing happened last night, she calmly placed the bouquet on the desk and asked him like a friend, "What do you want to eat tonight? I'll treat you."
The joy between her eyebrows was visible to the naked eye. Shen Yang looked up at her expression and said with a bit of sourness: "It's just a kissing scene, are you so happy?"
"Yeah." Ji Ning raised her eyebrows slightly, deliberately provoking him with some malicious intentions, "Li Yankai's kissing skills are not bad."
This seemed like a mockery of his poor kissing skills last night.
Shen Yang clenched his right fist and suddenly stood up and walked in front of her.
Ji Ning sensed something was wrong and took a step back, only to find the bed behind her. Her calves were against the edge of the bed, and her hands were on his chest: "What are you doing?"
Shen Yang's right hand firmly pressed against her lower back, and he leaned over and kissed her: "With more practice, I can be better than him."
Ji Ning was amused by the unconvinced tone in his words. She did not refuse. She placed her right hand on the back of his neck and gently stroked the ends of his hair with her index finger.
Last night, she could still comfort herself by saying that she was not awake late at night, but at this moment, the setting sun outside the window shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows and fell on the carpet without any cover. The room was so bright that she even felt that she could count how many eyelashes he had.
She found that she still wanted to kiss him and be kissed by him.
This throbbing didn't diminish at all after one night, but instead felt like I was getting addicted to it.
Ji Ning pulled his collar and fell backwards. The mattress sank and bounced back under the weight of two people.
This kiss made both of them more confused, but also made them more sober.
Ji Ning clearly realized that she had fallen in love with the man in front of her.
And the same is true for Shen Yang.
Because of her change in attitude, he had the courage to test her. Panting slightly, he buried his head in her neck. He said unwillingly, "Ji Ning, I don't kiss my friends like this."
"Yeah." Ji stared at the ceiling and chuckled, "I only kiss like this with my boyfriend."
Shen Yang's body seemed to stiffen for a moment, but the next second, he hugged her tighter: "Are you sure? What if I..."
Ji Ning turned her head and blocked his next words with her lips. She pressed her lips against his and said firmly, "Chen Yang, you will live a long life."
Shen Yang was silent for a moment, then lowered his head, sniffing her delicate fragrance with a certain greed. "In the past, on my birthday, my parents, my brother, my grandmother, almost everyone would make a wish for me, hoping that I would live to be a hundred years old. But I never made this wish because, for me, life doesn't have much fun. Living to be thirty, fifty, or a hundred is all the same to me."
"Now, I still don't ask for a long life, but I hope—" Chen Yang's kiss landed lightly on her earlobe, "I can stay with you until the last second of your life."
"Haven't you had the check-up? The doctor said your condition is very stable. As long as you maintain a good lifestyle and have regular physical examinations, there will be no problem." Ji Ning didn't want to continue such a heavy topic. She put her hands on his shoulders and forced him to turn over.
Her long hair was gathered to one side, and the ends of her hair rubbed against his arm, causing a wave of itch.
Ji Ning smiled and kissed his lips: "I think your mouth is cuter when you don't speak."
Shen Yang really shut up obediently.
The weather in early summer was already hot and humid. As they were making love, a thin layer of sweat unconsciously appeared on Ji Ning's back, and her rapid heartbeat did not slow down for a long time.
She suddenly remembered something, stood up and distanced herself from him, and asked with rapid breathing, "Will this be bad for your heart?"
"No." Shen Yang turned over and pressed her under him again.
Ji Ning didn't notice it just now, but now that her lower bodies were pressed tightly together, she realized that something seemed wrong.
She rubbed her thighs gently to make sure something was really wrong.
"You..." She stumbled and blurted out, "So, you can do it."
Chen Yang:?
Ji Ning realized that she had said the wrong thing and was about to pull away, but was pulled back by Shen Yang's arm. He narrowed his eyes and asked her, "What do you mean by 'originally'? When did I say I couldn't do it?"
"You didn't say that, I thought..." Ji Ning smiled flatteringly, "Illusion, illusion."
"You think I'm not capable, yet you're still willing to be with me?" Shen Yang flicked her forehead lightly, "Ji Ning, are you stupid?"
"That kind of thing isn't a necessity in life." Ji Ning patted his shoulder to comfort him. "I don't have any desire for that. I don't feel anything when I see sex scenes in movies. So if it's bad for your health, don't force yourself. Even if it's platonic, I can accept it."
Shen Yang was so angry that he laughed.
But I also feel that if I do that on the first day of our relationship, the progress will be too fast and I'm afraid she won't be used to it.
He kissed her lips fiercely:
"Just wait for me."
This wait lasted for a month.
Ji Ning was lying on the bed in dishevel, her long black hair spread out on the pure white sheets like seaweed, her chest heaving, her cheeks flushed.
The hand that she had once fallen in love with was gently twisted with her fingertips, as if to pound the red plums to extract the juice.
His warm fingertips moved down along the lines of his abdomen, and he wreaked havoc as if he had learned it by himself.
Ji Ning panted rapidly, and did not forget to praise him: "Now I think your hands are more than just beautiful."
"Hmm?" Shen Yang didn't look up. His hard hair rubbed against her tender skin again and again, which made her feel a little itchy and a little indescribably refreshing.
Ji Ning gently pulled the hair on the back of his head and smiled: "It's quite useful."
As soon as he finished speaking, as he applied force as if punishing her, Ji Ning let out a cry of surprise: "Ah."
Shen Yang opened the drawer under the bedside table and took out a box.
The sound of tearing the plastic film was infinitely amplified in the silent room. Ji Ning stared at his wet fingertips, her heart beating like thunder.
But at this moment, an idea suddenly came to her mind, and she grabbed his wrist worriedly.
"Chen Yang."
Shen Yang's body suddenly froze, and he stopped tearing the thing in his hand halfway.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't tell me you're not ready now."
"No." Ji Ning hesitated, her voice soft and unlike her usual outspoken self, "Are you sure you can? Do you want to call a doctor?"
"Ji Ning." Chen Yang tore off the condom and leaned over to cover her mouth. "Your mouth is cuter when you're silent."
Ji Ning completely lost the strength to speak, leaving only meaningless sobs.
The hair on his forehead was wet with sweat and stuck to his face. Ji Ning wrapped her arms around his neck and bit his shoulder in anger.
"Be gentle."
"Be gentle, I'm afraid you'll think I'm incapable." Chen Yang smiled and brushed the wet hair away from her face. "Will you dare to say I'm incapable next time?"
Ji Ning's words were shattered by the waves of trembling. She cursed concisely: "Asshole! Shameless!"
"You curse so nicely, come on again." Shen Yang was not ashamed, but proud of it.
Ji Ning gradually got used to this rhythm, but when it was over, she still felt exhausted as if she had run a marathon.
She closed her eyes and huddled in his arms. In her daze, she vaguely heard him calling her.
Ji Ning said "Hmm?" and felt a gentle kiss falling on her brow.
At that moment, she thought, she seemed to like shameless bastards.
