Chapter 67: Xun Sheng’s Dream
In late July, the sizes of He Qing and Lulu's co-branded products were finally adjusted.
Xia Cheng's focus shifted from the company to the model show, and she often had to go there to help.
This will inevitably conflict with things happening in the company.
Xia Cheng even felt that there was no need for her to intern in the company at all, because neither Xun Youdong nor Xun Sheng had any intention of entrusting her with any important tasks.
Even Han Wenya only treated her as a passing person to add a bright spot on her resume, and asked her to deliver some watches and make some coffee all day long. Even if Xia Cheng played games, she would not care.
Xia Cheng realized later that the entire company had been assigned tasks. What kind of trouble could she, an insignificant secretary with no support from anyone, cause?
The only person who cared about her was He Qing. During this period when Xun Mo was away, her attention was focused on Xia Cheng. She secretly asked Xia Cheng if she had any intention of developing in the entertainment industry.
In fact, being a star has always been He Qing's dream, but she married too early for her family. After giving birth to a child, she put this dream on hold because of Xia Cheng's disappearance. Now when she sees the commercials shot by Xia Cheng, her blood boils. The unfulfilled dream in her youth tells her that it is not too late, and she still has a daughter.
Letting Xia Cheng participate in the fashion show in collaboration with Lulu was her first step. She wanted to make Xia Cheng famous first. As He Qing's daughter, she naturally didn't have to play supporting roles like ordinary people.
The more He Qing looked at Xia Cheng, the happier she felt. Although Xia Cheng did not look like her, their personalities were exactly the same. She was not talkative, but had a lot of ideas of her own.
As a mother, her child is her heart and soul. She will use her connections to help Xia Cheng reach a high position, a place she has never reached but has always longed for.

On July 28, Xia Cheng and Chen Kelin went to He Qing's studio together. Chen Kelin warmly called He Qing "Auntie" and soon won He Qing's smile with sweet words.
After the two tried on all the clothes, He Qing instructed:
"You have no runway experience, so I've hired a teacher for you. You need to practice hard for the next two weeks. The fashion show is scheduled for August 20th. It's a tight schedule, so it will be very tiring. You have to practice every day."
Xia Cheng hesitated to speak, and He Qing saw through her words.
"I've talked to your father about it at the company. They'll count it as a regular shift. You don't have to go. Just have the logistics department clock in for you."
Xia Cheng looked at the pair of eyes that were bloodshot due to fatigue and thought for a moment.
This is indeed possible, it is just the right way to help Xun Sheng.
She nodded and agreed.
He Qing was so happy that he couldn't even hide the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes from laughing.
When he got home that night, He Qing patted the table and said to Xun Sheng with a smile:
"Chengcheng won't be going to the company anymore. She's busy with my fashion show. Please talk to the logistics department and have her work counted as normal."
Xun Sheng raised his eyes, his expression unremarkable, his gaze fixed on Xia Cheng for a moment.
"OK."
This was a small matter and He Qing didn't take it to heart.
But late at night, Xun Sheng tossed and turned, unable to sleep. These past few days, he couldn't sleep no matter where he went. In his own house, the moment he saw the bedroom, he would think of what happened that night. When he returned home, whenever he passed Xia Cheng's door, his thoughts would become confused.
Feeling so bored, he wanted to smoke again, but when he reached into the bedside table, he found there was nothing there. He buried his head and fell asleep.
It turns out that sleeping with emotions is bad for your health.
When Xun Sheng got up from the bed, he felt a dull pain in the back of his head. He took the pillow away and saw sweat on his forehead. As soon as he moved his body, his limbs touched a piece of cold skin.
He was so frightened that he rolled off the bed, hitting his jaw on the bedside table, but it didn't hurt.
Is there someone in the bed?!
Xun Sheng carefully opened the quilt and saw a sleeping face that looked innocent, buried in the quilt. The face had long, curly eyelashes and the skin was as delicate and milky white as a baby's.
It’s Xia Cheng again.
Xun Sheng subconsciously didn't want to disturb her sweet dream, but a strong sense of malice arose in his heart. This wasn't true dislike, otherwise he would have thrown the person out.
This is a way to protect his self-esteem. His whole body is clamoring to drive Xia Cheng away so that he can maintain his dignity!
He did wake her up, but as soon as Xia Cheng opened her eyes, she rushed towards him, just like that day, without any clothes on, and snuggled in his arms.
"roll!"
Xun Sheng cursed angrily, but he couldn't lift his hands to push the man out. What was going on? Was he crazy or was Xia Cheng crazy?
"Xia Cheng! Xia Cheng!" Xun Sheng called her name. Xia Cheng frowned, raised her body and kissed his mouth, which was still icy cold.
"Xia Cheng!"
Xun Sheng exclaimed and sat up from the bed.
The pillow covering his head rolled to the floor. He was sweating all over and breathing rapidly. It turned out to be just a dream?
Xun Sheng pulled back the quilt, and his pants were still there. Luckily...
"Brother?" A pair of delicate hands picked up the pillow on the ground, patted it, and handed it to Xun Sheng.
Xun Sheng looked in the direction of the hand and saw that it was still Xia Cheng. The door was open and Xia Cheng had actually sneaked in. Thinking of the dream just now, Xun Sheng was furious.
"Get out!" He yelled at her, and Xia Cheng actually started crying while hugging the pillow. Tears fell more and more, and then she threw herself on the bed and tore his clothes.
Xun Sheng didn't know where Xia Cheng got so much strength from. He couldn't move at all and could only resign himself to his fate by tilting his head back. If she really dared to kiss him, he would definitely make her pay!
Xia Cheng came closer with a pout. Xun Sheng turned his head, but stopped when he caught a glimpse of the red eyes.
If Xia Cheng really likes him, given their sibling status, she should be very sad?
After hesitating for a long time, Xia Cheng's lips brushed against Xun Sheng's jaw, and his skin felt like it was burning. Xun Sheng gritted his teeth.
"How on earth will you realize our relationship!?"
Xia Cheng leaned on his chest and cried again, her tears making his chest wet and slippery.
Xun Sheng lowered his head and saw that she was crying breathlessly. She didn't look like she could answer him at all. His heart softened.
"What do you want to do?"
Xia Cheng cried for a long time before she raised her head, like a fairy.
"As long as I kiss you once, I will never bother you again."
Xun Sheng never dared to think of such a thing.
He refused sternly.
But Xia Cheng acted as if he didn't hear anything and kissed him.
This time, he didn't dodge and even closed his eyes.
Xia Cheng only pecked it lightly and said:
"How shameless, Xun Sheng~"
Xun Sheng's whole body stiffened.
As expected, he fell into the trap.
He suddenly opened his eyes.
My vision was dark, my head was stuck between the pillow and the sheets, and it was difficult to breathe.
He kicked off the quilt, pulled off the pillow and threw it on the bed. Looking at the dark bedroom, he finally realized that the two scenes just now were dreams.
At this moment, I was sweating profusely.
My heart was beating so fast it was about to jump out of my chest, I didn't know if it was because of panic or because of Xia Cheng.
