Everyone in Beijing knows that Xiao XueZheng, the heir to a wealthy family, is pure-hearted and self-disciplined. At twenty-eight, he has never had a woman by his side, leading many to question his...
Chapter 428: He didn’t answer her call.
PS: (Written in the front) Regarding Bai Xue, this was a mistake made by Xiao Yao before. I was going to introduce Bai Xue’s background in Chapter 400, but when I was writing that chapter, I forgot to copy it from the coding software to the platform... Bai Xue is the daughter of the Bai family, a family friend of the Xiao family. She was also a playmate of Xiao Xue Zheng when they were young. Xiao Xue Zheng didn’t know her vicious heart, so he was more humble and caring towards her, which caused a series of misunderstandings between her and Run Run. But don’t worry, dear friends! Bai Xue, the green tea bitch, will be offline soon! From now on, it will be all sweet pets! Xiao Yao would like to say sorry for the trouble caused to the readers... muah! Bai Xue will be offline soon~
…
When she took the cup of water, Wu Chenyin's hand gently stroked the back of her hand, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
Shi Runrun immediately felt goose bumps on her arms. She quickly withdrew her hand and looked at him strangely.
But the other party looked calm, as if he didn't take what happened just now to heart.
Am I overthinking it? Shi Runrun thought to herself.
She picked up the cup to drink water, and glanced out of the corner of her eye, only to see Wu Chenyin suddenly stand up and sit next to her.
"Ahem!" Shi Runrun couldn't help but choke. Wu Chenyin immediately handed her a tissue and said with a smile, "Slow down."
Shi Runrun subconsciously sat a little further away and said awkwardly, "Mr. Wu, you..."
Wu Chenyin interrupted her with a smile, "Miss Shi, the dishes are here, let's eat first."
Looking at Shi Runrun's flushed face, Wu Chenyin felt that she was blushing because she saw him suddenly getting close to her.
Suddenly, he felt that the woman in front of him was no different from other women.
So what if it’s Mrs. Xiao?
Isn’t it possible to possess it easily just by snapping your fingers?
He picked up some food for Shi Runrun while chatting with her.
"After dinner, Miss Shi, are you going home?"
"Um……"
Shi Runrun felt a little awkward because they were too close, but Wu Chenyin looked very natural, which made her wonder if she was making a big deal out of nothing.
Wu Chenyin followed suit with a smile. "That's great. Both Miss Bai and you live locally, so you can go home after work. Unlike me, living alone in a hotel, I sometimes feel really lonely."
"...Really?" Shi Runrun felt that the topic was gradually going in the wrong direction, so she forced a smile and changed the subject. "That's good. I can have more time to figure out the script and character design..."
Wu Chenyin nodded, turned to look at her and said meaningfully, "But I'm a new actor after all, and my acting skills are not very good. If someone could come to the hotel to rehearse with me, it might be much better."
Having said this, he fell silent.
Wu Chenyin thought he had hinted clearly enough.
If Shi Runrun was smart, she would have agreed happily.
He didn't feel that he would be rejected at all. After all, this trick had always worked based on his past experience.
No matter how slow Shi Runrun was, he could hear the hidden meaning in the words.
Suddenly, her mind was confused. After she came to her senses, her heart skipped a beat and her whole body tensed up.
"Really..." She managed to raise the corners of her lips, but her thoughts were already in a mess.
She really didn't expect that she would encounter the unspoken rules of the entertainment industry so soon.
Wu Chenyin, who was standing beside her, had a very gentle face before, but now he looked like a wolf in sheep's clothing, staring at her with a fierce look, making her feel uncomfortable all over.
Seeing Wu Chenyin moving closer to her, Shi Runrun could no longer hold back and stood up suddenly.
Wu Chenyin was startled by her sudden movement, leaned back, and asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"
Shi Runrun was flustered, but she forced herself to smile calmly. "Mr. Wu, we've pretty much finished discussing the script. If there's anything you still don't understand, let's talk about it tomorrow during filming. It's too late now, and my husband is probably gone already. I have to go too."
She gritted her teeth and emphasized the word "Mr."
Without waiting for Wu Chenyin to say anything else, Shi Runrun smiled apologetically, picked up her bag and walked out the other side.
Wu Chenyin was left standing there in shock, staring at her back.
After coming out in a hurry, Shi Runrun looked back and saw that the other party did not chase him out, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
But thinking about what happened just now, she still felt a little scared, and subconsciously took out her cell phone and called Xiao Xue Zheng.
The call was connected quickly, but Shi Runrun reacted quickly and subconsciously wanted to hang up.
But the moment she raised her finger, she couldn't help but pause when she saw the screen that was connecting.
She inexplicably wanted to know whether Xiao Xue Zheng, who was accompanying Bai Xue, would answer her call after seeing it?
Thinking of this, her heart became inexplicably nervous.
The call was hung up.
It was like a basin of ice-cold water pouring over her head, waking her up completely.
It was almost autumn, the night wind was chilly, and Shi Runrun shivered unconsciously.
But no matter how cold it is, it can't compare to the pain and chill in my heart.
She raised her eyes and looked at the heavy traffic, bright lights, people coming and going in front of her, but her vision gradually became blurred.
She chuckled softly, lowered her head and shook it in self-mockery.
"Shi Runrun, ah Shi Runrun, what on earth are you dreaming about?"
On the other side, Xiao Xue Zheng accompanied Bai Xue to the hospital.
Bai Xue entered the examination room alone, and Xiao Xue Zheng waited quietly outside.
Just then, his cell phone vibrated. He took it out and saw that it was Shi Runrun.
He was a little surprised, but his heavy mood, which had been caused by accompanying Bai Xue to the hospital, felt much lighter.
Xiao Xue Zheng was about to answer the phone when Bai Xue came out of the examination room and saw this scene.
Bai Xue's heart tightened slightly, her eyes flickered, and she immediately called out softly, "Xue Zheng."
Xiao Xuezheng looked up and frowned slightly, "He came out so soon?"
Bai Xue smiled slightly, stepped forward and took his arm, "Yeah, it's just a checkup... Hey, who's calling?"
Xiao Xuezheng glanced down, his face tense for a moment, then he hung up the phone and said calmly, "Nothing."
At the same time, he easily broke free from Bai Xue's hand, staring at her with dark eyes, "When will the results be out?"
Although he once again avoided her intimacy, Bai Xue still felt happy when she saw him hang up the phone on Shi Runrun in front of her.
But she didn't show it on her face, she just said softly, "It should be soon."
Having said this, she lowered her head with a somewhat depressed look, her whole body emitting tension. She clasped her hands and said, "Xuezheng, I don't know why... I always feel a little uneasy."
"Xuezheng, do you think I will..."
"No!" Xiao Xuezheng frowned slightly and interrupted her directly, "Relax, nothing will happen."
In fact, Xiao Xue Zheng was not too worried about Bai Xue's current health.
Although her condition was still fluctuating, she had already passed the most dangerous period when she was discharged from the hospital.
Seeing this, Bai Xue smiled with relief and nodded slightly.
"Xuezheng, I feel much better now that you said that."
She turned her head to look at the examination room, then turned back and said, "Xue Zheng, can you wait here for me? I'm going to the bathroom."
Xiao Xuezheng glanced at her, nodded, and warned, "Be careful."
Bai Xue smiled slightly, "Yeah."
After watching Bai Xue leave, Xiao Xue Zheng was about to take out his cell phone to call Shi Runrun back when the door of the examination room opened and a doctor walked up to him.
"Are you a member of Snow White's family?"
