Lin Ye suddenly grabbed Su Xi's hand, his face serious, but the words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat and he couldn't get them out.

Seeing him like this, Su Xi thought he was feeling unwell. "What's wrong? Does your wound hurt?"

"fine."

Lin ultimately didn't say it.

He and Su Xi were very familiar with each other. Although they had been good friends since childhood, they had never crossed any lines.

He was afraid that suddenly revealing his true feelings would frighten Su Xi and change the nature of their relationship.

Su Xi had already treated his wound. She stood up and explained, "I'm not a professional, I just disinfected it for you. You can have a nurse at the hospital treat it again later."

"I'll go find Zhou Jingming first. Drive carefully."

Without giving Lin Ye a chance to speak, Su Xi hurriedly left again.

Having found Zhou Jingming's private room, Su Xi pushed open the door and went inside.

She happened to see Qiao Xing offering Zhou Jingming wine, and their bodies were so close that half of her breasts were about to press against the man's arm.

Su Xiyang smiled coldly.

She'd seen this kind of person far too many times!

Su Xi strode over, snatched the wine glass with one hand, and pushed Qiao Xing aside with the other. She then sat down in the middle, separating the two and cutting off Qiao Xing's attempt to seduce Zhou Jingming.

"Miss Qiao, your new movie starts filming today. Instead of filming on set, what are you doing at the bar?" Su Xi downed the strong liquor in her glass in one gulp. The hot liquor burned her throat, and she couldn't help but frown.

What kind of drink did that scoundrel order?

She cursed Zhou Jingming in her heart, but maintained her elegance on the surface, "Do the actors in your crew offer extra drinking services?"

Qiao Xing's face turned deathly pale.

She came to the bar because Zhou Jingming didn't attend her filming ceremony.

She had even gone to Su Xi's film crew to remind him, but the man still didn't come.

Qiao Xing had boasted to everyone that he would definitely make Zhou Jingming appear in person.

Zhou Jingming wasn't there, and everyone was laughing at her.

She's completely lost face!

Watching Miss Qiao's dramatic change of expression, Su Xi laughed and hooked her arm around Zhou Jingming's, playfully scolding, "Honey, Miss Qiao is very popular right now. If you have a big star like her pour you drinks, people will think she can do any job. That's not a good idea."

Her voice was soft and sweet; the sound of her calling him "husband" was like a gentle spring rain, smooth and alluring to everyone.

No wonder Zhou Shao was willing to get the marriage certificate; who could resist that?

Zhou Jingming chuckled softly, "My wife is right, it's really not a good thing."

"Young Master Zhou, you know me, I didn't..." Qiao Xing explained anxiously, her face flushed.

Zhou Jingming pulled Su Xi closer to him, saying, "You're not my wife, how would I know you?"

All the rich kids burst into laughter again.

Some people joked, "Young Master Zhou is now henpecked and has to be celibate in public."

"Miss Qiao, it seems your sincere feelings are going to be in vain."

Qiao Xing's eyes reddened, and she suddenly felt a little lost. She looked at Zhou Jingming, hoping that the man would help her.

Su Xi exclaimed, "Please don't say that, everyone. If someone with ulterior motives hears this, they might think that Miss Qiao is coveting someone else's husband and is eager to become a mistress."

"Su Xi, why are you saying such awful things?" Qiao Xing said anxiously, her eyes welling up with tears.

This pitiful appearance can really evoke a man's heartache.

Su Xi looked at Zhou Jingming expectantly, "Honey, did I say something mean?"

The scoundrel didn't contradict her at the crucial moment; he just played along, saying, "My wife is right."

Everyone was stunned.

Is this still the Zhou Shao they know?

He can't stop talking about his wife, and now he's even helping Su Xi humiliate Qiao Xing.

Could it be that she really changed her gender after getting married?

As Qiao Xing watched the couple's back-and-forth banter, her face flushed red, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Everyone was laughing at her.

Qiao Xing couldn't bring herself to do it, so she stomped her feet, wiped away her tears, and ran away.

"Young Master Zhou, this is a huge mistake. If Miss Qiao gets really angry and it affects the whole show, all the money you've invested will be wasted."

These rich kids never shy away from making trouble, and even when Su Xi was there, they still joked around.

Zhou Jingming took the wine from Su Xi, leaned back lazily on the sofa and sipped it. Under everyone's watchful eyes, he pulled Su Xi onto his lap and said, "My wife will help me make money."

The crowd gasped in surprise.

Everyone knows that this is Su Xi's first time acting, and she's not very famous. Even though she got the lead role, Su Rou is still the most popular choice online.

Not only have they not been criticized for their poor acting skills, but they're also trying to make money?

They don't believe it.

Su Xi smiled and agreed, "I will work hard to make my husband rich."

The couple displayed their affection in public, ignoring the onlookers and flirting with each other, which a group of wealthy young men found unbearable.

"Hey, I didn't drink enough wine, but I ate several pounds of dog food."

"From now on, everyone who asks Young Master Zhou to go out must report to his sister-in-law."

"Let's all go, don't ruin the young couple's happy time."

The group of people left laughing and joking, and soon only Su Xi and Zhou Jingming remained in the private room.

With no outsiders present, Su Xi left the man.

She abandoned her previous coquettish demeanor and grabbed his arm, saying, "We three grew up together, how can you be so cruel?"

"Feeling sorry for him?" Zhou Jingming groaned in pain, but his eyes were cold.

Su Xi gritted her teeth and said seriously, "He's a doctor. If you hurt him, how many patients will suffer because of you?"

"Who says doctors can't give injections?"

Zhou Jingming spoke casually, picking up his glass of wine and downing it in one gulp. "He attacked first. Are you expecting me to just let him hit me?"

That's not what I meant...

"If I were injured, would you feel sorry for me?" Zhou Jingming looked directly into her eyes, trying to see through her.

Who is Su Xi?

Master of Qianye Pavilion.

How could someone possibly see through me so easily?

She leaned closer to his face, kissed him, and chuckled, "Look at the question you're asking. You're my husband, of course I'd be heartbroken if you got hurt."

Zhou Jingming snorted coldly.

Is that really the case?

Lin also punched him, and he was injured on the corner of his lip.

This woman's attention was focused on Lin Ye from beginning to end; she hadn't said a single word of concern to him.

Is this what you call feeling sorry for someone?

Even though he was lying motionless on the ground, she calmly called an ambulance.

Seeing that he seemed genuinely unhappy, Su Xi wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned closer to his face again. "I know Lin Ye started it first, and you acted in self-defense, but could you please ask your husband to handle similar situations differently in the future?"
