Chapter 52 I'm Feeling the Spring
After drinking half a glass of water in one breath, Li Qin regained some sobriety, looked at Meng Bai beside her and asked, "Where's Jia Jia?"
"I just called her, she should be here soon."
"Oh."
The room fell silent, and there was a faint awkward and ambiguous atmosphere in the room.
"Ahem." Meng Bai coughed lightly, breaking the silence in the room: "I just talked to Leshi, and the revenue settlement can be done before the end of the month. When the accounts are divided, we will divide our own."
Speaking of the revenue, Li Qin also became excited: "How much can it be?"
"I don't know the exact number, but according to the data I know, the total revenue of the drama "Pendulum" is at least more than 20 million. According to the best estimate, we can at least get... 6 million."
"So much!" Li Qin said in surprise, and even sobered up a little.
"It's just my personal guess, I don't know how much it will be yet."
Although Meng Bai said so, Li Qin was still very excited, this was much more than she had expected at the beginning.
She couldn't help but think of the afternoon half a year ago when Meng Bai appeared in front of her and told her, who was crying, that there was a way to get back the money that was cheated. Would she like to join?
Thinking of this, Li Qin looked at Meng Bai, suppressed her excitement and said seriously: "Thank you."
"Hey, we help each other. Without you, I would not have been able to get a profit-sharing agreement with Leshi." Meng Bai waved his hand indifferently, and said jokingly: "But if you must thank me and are going to give up one or two points of profit, then I can barely accept it."
"Then you think too much. The profit will never be given to you. But... we can change it in another way."
"What... huh?"
Meng Bai paused, and saw Li Qin gently leaning forward, raising her face, and then quickly pecked him on the face.
The girl's movements were so fast, like a startled beauty, that Meng Bai even doubted whether it was his illusion just now.
Li Qin sat on the bed with her body huddled up, feeling her heart beating so fast, and she didn't understand why she made such a bold move just now.
It seems that she doesn't like Meng Bai, at most she has some good feelings for him.
Moreover, this guy has a bad temper. He always likes to tease her and often chokes her with a sentence. If he wasn't so handsome, she would really want to bite him to death every minute.
It must be the exciting atmosphere of today's celebration banquet that affected her, coupled with the intensification of alcohol, which led to her impulsiveness.
Yes, that must be the case. It's all my fault for being drunk!
Li Qin tried hard to find excuses for herself in her heart, while Meng Bai on the other side looked at the girl in front of her who bowed her head and said nothing in confusion.
No, what's going on? Just like that? Let's continue later!
"You..."
"Don't think too much! I just... just want to express my gratitude. Yes, thank you!"
Meng Bai was about to speak when he was interrupted by Li Qin. Hearing this, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Your way of thanking is quite unique. But..."
"But what?"
"But as the saying goes, a drop of water is repaid with a spring of water. If you want to thank me, this is not enough."
"Ah? What... um!"
Li Qin was about to ask what he meant, but saw Meng Bai grab her wrist, pull her into his arms with force, and then lower his head and kiss the girl's lips directly.
"Hmm!!!"
Li Qin's eyes widened.
Wait, something's wrong, how did it suddenly become like this.
Li Qin raised her hand and knocked on Meng Bai's chest, trying to push him away, but the strength and action made anyone feel that she was more like a spoiled child.
After "resisting" for a few times, seeing that it didn't work, Li Qin only felt a heat rising from her body to the top of her head, burning her dizzy. The hand that was originally patting the other party was put down at some point, and subconsciously wrapped around Meng Bai's waist.
The room became quiet, with only two panting sounds, one light and one heavy, and the sound of swallowing saliva.
After a long time.
Lips parted, Meng Bai raised his head and looked at Li Qin. The girl had long lost the consciousness of "resistance". Her face was flushed, and she looked at Meng Bai with blurred eyes, as if she didn't understand what was going on, and seemed to be asking him why he stopped.
The posture of the two had changed from sitting upright to half leaning against the head of the bed. Li Qin had only two pillows under her body for support, which was no different from lying on the bed.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I just suddenly thought that your assistant should be back soon."
As soon as Meng Bai finished speaking, there was a knock at the door of the room. Then, the voice of the assistant Jia Jia sounded outside the door: "Is it this room... Sister Qinqin, it's me."
Li Qin was like a bucket of cold water poured on her forehead, and her originally hot mood immediately calmed down. She glanced at Meng Bai's hand that had already reached into her clothes, and said coldly: "Why don't you let go?"
Meng Bai let go of his hand and stood up with an innocent expression on his face.
Li Qin sorted out her messy clothes and felt that she was almost done. Then she said to Meng Bai, "I'll go wash my face. You go open the door."
Meng Bai didn't say anything, but walked out of the inner room.
Although he was not experienced in this kind of situation, he had some experience. He knew that the girl was in a state of shame and anger. His best choice was to be quiet and not speak.
The assistant outside the door knocked on the door a few times. Seeing that there was no movement inside, he was ready to take out his mobile phone to make a call. Just as he was about to dial the number, he saw that the door of the room was opened.
"Sister Qinqin, are you okay...ah, Meng, Brother Meng."
Looking at the confused expression of the assistant, Meng Bai said calmly, "I'm back at the right time. Teacher Li drank too much and is resting inside. You take care of him."
"Ah, okay, okay." The assistant responded, looked at Meng Bai suspiciously, and walked towards the inner room in a few steps.
Just then, Li Qin, who had washed her face, came out of the bathroom. Seeing the assistant coming in, he took the hangover medicine handed over by the other party naturally and laughed a few words.
Seeing the situation like this, it would be awkward to stay any longer, so Meng Bai wisely chose to say goodbye: "Since Jiajia is back, I will leave first."
Li Qin came over, with a "sweet" smile on her face with a little water stain: "I really troubled Teacher Meng tonight!"
"It's okay, it's what I should do." Meng Bai said with a look of "don't worry about it": "Next time if you have any questions, you can contact me."
"..." Li Qin's breath stagnated, and she resisted the urge to roll her eyes.
The assistant next to her was confused. Why did the conversation between the two sound a little difficult to understand, as if they were both drunk.
After "driving" Meng Bai away, Li Qin returned to the room. Leaning against the head of the bed, he said to the assistant, "Jia Jia, pour me a glass of water."
"Okay." The assistant responded, and just as she was about to turn around, she seemed to see something and pointed at her lips and said, "Sister Qinqin, your lipstick seems to be smudged here at the corner of your mouth."
Li Qin was startled, then raised her hand and gently wiped the corner of her mouth, explaining, "Oh, maybe I wiped it when I washed my face just now. It's okay, I'm not going back tonight anyway, so let's just leave it like that."
"Oh." The assistant didn't notice anything wrong, responded and walked out.
Watching the assistant leave the room, Li Qin groaned and pulled up the quilt and buried her face in it.
Damn, tonight is really too bad!
Not to mention that the guy took advantage of me, the key is that I took the initiative.
My nose twitched slightly, and I seemed to be able to smell the guy's scent. Then Li Qin suddenly remembered that the two of them seemed to be in this position just now...
ah, help, why did I think of the scene just now!
Speaking of which, that guy is so skilled in this kind of thing. I was completely ignorant, and he was almost the one leading and guiding me throughout the whole process.
Thinking of this, Li Qin threw the quilt in her hand to the side fiercely - humph, scumbag!
But after a while, she pulled it back, half covering her face, not knowing what she was thinking about, and couldn't help laughing softly.
The warm sun and clear wind broke the frost, and the willow eyes and eyebrows were already full of spring.
