"Lingxi, wait a minute, there's something I want to ask you. Is now a good time?"
Seeing that Mu Lingxi was about to leave, Qin Che suddenly became anxious. No, he couldn't just do nothing.
Qin Che grabbed Mu Lingxi's wrist, his grip tightening considerably, fearing the girl would leave.
He was genuinely a little scared, after all, the girl had been attracting too much attention lately.
Qin Che saw all those infatuated gazes and felt anxious.
He clearly remembered that he was the one Mu Lingxi had chosen from the very beginning!
Now, seeing that Bo Changling, Han Jin, and the others are able to win the favor of girls, while he himself is lagging behind, how can he be willing to accept this?
Thinking this, Qin Che's eyes became even more determined, and he gripped Mu Lingxi's hand even tighter.
With this exertion, Mu Lingxi cried out in pain, but her cry was as melodious and pleasant as a nightingale's song.
"ah--"
Mu Lingxi felt that Qin Che's hand was like a merciless iron hand, gripping her so tightly that her lips cracked from the pain.
"I'm so sorry."
When Qin Che realized he had made a mistake, it was too late. He released his grip, leaving a large red mark on Mu Lingxi's arm.
The girl's skin was so delicate that it would turn red with just a little force, let alone with the force Qin Che used.
Qin Che's eyes were filled with self-blame. He kept saying sorry, but it was no use and he couldn't undo the damage.
On her jade-like skin, that red mark was so glaring that it made the audience feel pain as if they were watching her.
"Oh my god, what does Qin Che mean? Why is he gripping so hard? He's made Mu Lingxi's hand red."
"Why can't you just say what you want to say? Why do you have to resort to violence? See? I knew Qin Che had ulterior motives."
"But hasn't anyone noticed that Mu Lingxi's skin is very delicate, which is why it turns red so easily?"
"What? It must have been from exerting force to turn red. It turns red with just a touch. This shows that Qin Che must have used a lot of force."
Qin Che was extremely anxious at this moment. He hadn't done it on purpose, but the girl's injuries were just too heartbreaking.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I used too much force just now... I'll go get you some medicine."
"Don't make such a fuss, it will go down on its own in a bit."
Although Mu Lingxi said that, the burning pain in her arm still brought tears to her eyes.
She gasped, her lips pursed, trying to swallow the sour taste, but she failed.
However, Qin Che still found her tearful appearance beautiful and wished he could kiss away the pearly tears from the corners of her eyes.
He swallowed hard, concealing the covetous look in his eyes, and carefully took the girl's small hand.
"Go to the storage room, I'll apply the medicine for you, and by the way... I have something I want to tell you."
"Oh, no need."
As soon as Mu Lingxi uttered her refusal, Qin Che led her away.
This time, Qin Che was very careful with his strength, appearing quite cautious, so that Mu Lingxi did not feel uncomfortable.
Only after the two figures completely disappeared from the living room did Song Bao'er finally lose her temper and jump up from the sofa.
This stop was quite abrupt, startling Bai Mengmeng who was standing next to her.
"Bao'er, what's wrong?"
Bai Mengmeng was confused. She hadn't been paying attention and didn't know what had happened or what was wrong with Song Bao'er.
She was still lost in thought, wondering if she could skip sending the "heartbeat" text message later, and even wanted to discuss it with the production team.
There's nothing Bai Mengmeng can do; she's become somewhat indifferent to things now. She can't win an argument anyway, so what else can she do?
It's better to ignore it than to make yourself angry.
but--
She looked at Song Bao'er standing beside her, and seeing that the other woman's anger had not subsided, she poked her arm.
Bai Mengmeng carefully observed Song Bao'er's expression and found it to be extremely unpleasant. What could be wrong?
"Baby, baby?"
Bai Mengmeng couldn't figure out what Song Bao'er was angry about right now. Was it because her attempt to sow discord had failed?
Following Song Bao'er's gaze, Bai Mengmeng noticed that she was staring intently at Qin Che.
How to put it... that look in her eyes seemed to be both resentful and jealous.
Um?
Something just doesn't look right.
Just now, Song Bao'er was talking badly about Qin Che to Gao Yue, so what's going on now?
Could it be that Song Bao'er has fallen for Qin Che?
That's impossible. When did this happen? How come she didn't know?
Bai Mengmeng became increasingly determined to find out what was going on.
"Baby, baby, what are you looking at?"
However, Bai Mengmeng's calls to Song Bao'er went unanswered.
Song Bao'er was furious. She could tolerate Qin Che being with anyone, but she couldn't tolerate him getting involved with Mu Lingxi!
Qin Che should be on her side, how could he fall for Mu Lingxi?
No, she had to stop them.
Thinking this, Song Bao'er threw down the cushion without saying a word and walked towards the storage room, ignoring Bai Mengmeng's incredulous gaze.
This outburst of temper was a stark contrast to her gentle demeanor just moments before.
Since Song Bao'er was recognized as a rich and beautiful woman, she has been labeled as gentle and elegant.
In addition, her positive comforting of Gao Yue just now gave people a feeling of being very loving and kind.
But it wasn't long before they were proven wrong?
The audience was confused by Song Bao'er's inexplicable actions, since in their view, Song Bao'er's relationship with those two people wasn't exactly good.
