Director Qu chuckled twice, ignoring his wife's complaints, when his phone rang.
He answered the phone without even looking at the number, "Hello, who is this?"
A female voice came through the microphone, "Director Qu, I heard your drama is about to start filming. Do you need investment?"
Director Qu chuckled inwardly, "Yes, of course we're short of investment." He'd had a bit too much to drink and his reactions were a little slow, but his brain had some conditioned reflexes; whenever someone said they were short of investment, he would subconsciously say, "Yes, we're short of investment!"
“Our company can invest 20 million, but the role of Song Sheng has to be given to us.”
Director Qu's drunkenness vanished instantly, and he stood up from the sofa. "May I ask your surname?"
My surname is Chen.
Director Qu chuckled, "But, Ms. Chen, this role has already been signed, and terminating the contract would incur a penalty."
"Just compensate her. Of course, it would be even better if Director Qu could get the other party to breach the contract. That way, Director Qu wouldn't have to pay anything and could even get a free compensation. Why not?"
...
Li Ruan made dinner herself, and after eating, she watched TV in the living room, studying how those movie stars acted, until ten o'clock, when she turned off the TV and went back to her room to take a shower.
Warm water splashed on her body, leaving countless glistening droplets on her fair and smooth skin. The droplets slid down the contours of her skin, eventually merging and disappearing. Suddenly, a click came from the door.
Immediately afterward, footsteps sounded in the living room, heading straight for the bedroom. Then the bathroom door was opened. In her panic, Li Ruan only had time to hide in a corner of the bathroom, turning her back and hugging her private parts with both arms. Like a frightened little rabbit, she turned her head to look at the doorway, her eyes filled with horror.
The newcomer chuckled softly: "What's there to be afraid of?"
"How did you get in? You scared me to death!" As she spoke, Li Ruan's eyes reddened, and tears instantly fell.
Xi Leng's eyes also reddened. He didn't say another word, took off his coat, threw it aside, and stepped into the bathroom.
"What are you doing...?"
Xi Leng leaned down and sealed his lips with a kiss.
The hot water kept pouring down, and even the steam in the bathroom seemed shy, unable to shut out the sounds even with the tightly closed bathroom door.
An hour later, Li Ruan was carried out of the bathroom. Her body was covered in a light pinkish hue, like a delicious cotton ball, tempting one to want to lick it.
However, there were two unsightly bluish marks on her slender waist. Xi Leng pursed his lips. He had been very careful, but her skin was too tender and delicate. It seemed that even a little bit of force would leave marks.
He lay down on the bed, his large hand stroking her bruises. "Does it hurt?"
It's strange. He wouldn't even flinch if he broke his own bone, but he felt incredibly distressed when he saw that she only had a bruise on her body.
The person on the bed gave a soft snort and kicked his shin with her little foot again. "You still dare to ask? It's all your fault for being so rough. Do you think he's one of you rough men? You wish you could just kill him."
Xi Leng: ...Whose little lover is like this, kicking people at the drop of a hat!
And she was really unreasonable. Last night she kicked him out of bed, and this morning she made him go to work with a lipstick stain on his face, making him a laughing stock in the whole company. In the afternoon, she deliberately didn't add his contact information.
Now they're blaming him for being too rough, and besides, where is he rough? But compared to her, he is indeed a bit rough.
Seeing that the man didn't react for a long time, Li Ruan got angry again and reached out to turn the man's face up. "You still dare to ignore me? Tell me, were you thinking about some little vixen just now? Sure enough, men are all big pigs, they don't cherish what they have."
Xi Leng was amused by her. She really dared to say that. If he had other little vixens, what would she have to do with it?
They really need to be taught a lesson!
She's not getting any sleep tonight!
Even though it had only been a day, the little fairy seemed even more beautiful, and her skin looked even better, like the finest silk, delicate, smooth, and warm like jade. He really couldn't bear to touch it.
...
He Cheng looked at the time on his phone, then at the tightly closed door, looking utterly dejected. He was asked to come and deliver clothes at six o'clock. He knew the president's schedule well; he got up at six without fail. He even arrived ten minutes early, afraid that the president would be getting impatient.
But now it's already 6:45, and there's still no movement inside.
Even if you indulge in pleasure for a while, you can't lose control of yourself.
She's too greedy; she doesn't even care about him, this eternal bachelor!
At 7:01, He Cheng's phone rang. He quickly answered, "President, I'm right outside the door. The clothes are ready."
Half a minute later, the door opened, and a large hand reached out. He Cheng quickly handed over the bag, which was then taken away, and the door slammed shut behind him.
Xi Leng untied the pink bath towel from his waist, took out the toiletries inside, and went into the bathroom. When he came out, he was already dressed.
The pear was poisonous, and so was her bed; today, he actually overslept.
Inside the room, Li Ruan also came out wearing pajamas. A pink spaghetti strap nightgown hung on her shoulders, revealing a large expanse of fair and smooth skin on her chest. Xi Leng glanced at her and then looked away. No one noticed that his Adam's apple bobbed up and down rapidly.
Pear's soft voice was no longer as crisp as yesterday, but had gained a more charming huskiness, "Mr. Xi, you still haven't told me where you got my house key?"
Whether it was the beautiful scenery before him or the husky, sexy voice that made Xi Leng's ears feel slightly warm.
However, he did not answer Li Ruan's question, saying, "Your apartment is too small. Go back to the villa tonight."
Li Ruan: "My agent asked me to take acting classes. This place is close to the company, and I don't think it's small at all." Although it's only a one-bedroom apartment, it's enough for her alone, and it's easy to clean.
Leaning against the door, Li Ruan casually surveyed the man before her. His upper body was wrapped in a gray-blue shirt, revealing the outline of his abdominal muscles. His narrow waist was completely hidden by the clothes, and only she knew just how powerful that waist was.
Xi Leng's mind was far from calm. Yesterday, he had intended to go straight home, but halfway there, he changed his mind and instructed the driver to take him to Li Ruan's apartment.
Moreover, he lost control the moment he opened the bathroom door.
He seems to be excessively infatuated with this woman; this won't do.
He took a deep breath and said, "Do as you please. I'll call you if anything comes up."
Does that mean we shouldn't contact each other unless necessary?
Li Ruan understood what he meant, but pretended not to understand and went over to snuggle into the man's arms, saying in a sweet and coquettish voice, "Mr. Xi, I will be good."
Obediently do what you ask, be an emotionless canary.
