Chapter 9: Being a lickspittle for others
"Um."
Chu Xueyi looked down at the tip of her shoes, feeling a little uneasy, not knowing how to respond to Ji Qingshu's warmth.
It's obvious that this guy always has a sour face towards others.
It's a bit like a cat that is always arrogant and looks down on others, but will wag its tail at her.
This feeling is indescribably strange, mixed with a hint of happiness.
"Then let's go together. I'm going out too."
Ji Qingshu had a faint smile on his face and took Chu Xueyi's arm.
Only when you take the initiative can there be a story. This is what Ji Qingshu learned after reading several love magazines overnight.
The relationship between girls is different from the love between men and women. It is as thin as a layer of window paper that can be broken with just a poke.
Love between girls can easily be confused with friendship, so you must act a little more warmly to have the possibility of further development, and behave a little differently from friendship.
But so far, Ji Qingshu only dares to disguise this liking as friendship.
Otherwise, she was afraid of scaring Chu Xueyi.
Chu Xueyi's arm was touched by something so soft and warm again. She thought about it and felt that it was not good to maintain such an ambiguous relationship.
So he straightened up a little, his heels seemed to be nailed to the dormitory corridor.
"Why don't you leave?"
There was doubt in Ji Qingshu's eyes.
Chu Xueyi took a deep breath and looked at the person in front of her who had a pure yet beautiful appearance, as if she saw a superstar who would shine in the future.
It's really rare to see her being so clingy.
If I were my real 20-year-old self, I might not be able to see through the careful disguise of the person in front of me, but Chu Xueyi has been working in the entertainment industry for several years.
Already have the ability to understand people's hearts.
She could see Ji Qingshu's unconcealable love.
It turns out that, Ms. Ji, you also make mistakes in your acting.
"Ji Qingshu, I know that what I said is a bit narcissistic, but you should also understand that I like women."
Ji Qingshu nodded without letting go of her hand, just tacitly agreeing with Chu Xueyi's story.
"So, we should keep some distance between us, just like people of the opposite sex. Otherwise... I'm taking advantage of you."
Chu Xueyi didn't dare to directly tell the future film queen Ji that the other party was taking advantage of her.
So we can only remind you in a more tactful way.
"It's okay. I don't mind."
Ji Qingshu knew that he had been too enthusiastic recently, but since she dared to come close to him, she must have had an excuse in mind.
"It's just that I'm worried about you..."
Ji Qingshu led his men forward again. The two of them walked down the concrete steps one by one and arrived at the door of the dormitory building.
Chu Xueyi then realized that as soon as she went out, countless classmates looked at her and talked about her. Obviously... the incident at the performance venue had become a big deal.
When I received the text message in the morning, I should have known that so many people would be watching me downstairs.
Damn! I should have worn a mask earlier.
Chu Xueyi felt a little annoyed.
Chu Xueyi! Chu Xueyi...how come you've been a big star for so many years and still can't remember the importance of wearing a mask at all times!
"I'm worried that Zhao Chengjun might be plotting against you. Even though he was expelled from school, he must be fuming inside. People like him are the scariest..."
Ji Qingshu then narrowed his eyes and pointed at the steps in front of the dormitory door as if recalling the past.
"A few years ago, a once-in-a-lifetime incident occurred here. A wealthy second-generation man confessed his love to one of our senior students, but was rejected."
"The man got so angry that he brought sulfuric acid the next day and poured a whole bottle of it on the senior student's face."
"Although my life isn't in danger, as an actor, losing my looks... is unbearable."
After Ji Qingshu finished speaking, he found that Chu Xueyi's hair stood on end.
Ji Qingshu bravely moved his fingers down, slowly squeezing into the gaps between Chu Xueyi's fingers, and then moved close to Chu Xueyi's side, so that their arms were touching.
She also spoke with a firm tone.
"But it's okay, I'm here to protect you now."
Ji Qingshu glanced lightly, and the drama students who were still whispering or pointing fingers at each other fell silent instantly.
Obviously.
No one wanted to offend Ji Qingshu.
…
At this moment, two people were standing in the distance. They were Su Shiyu and her best friend. They had just finished their morning run, with towels still hanging around their necks, when they saw this scene.
As an actor, or more precisely, a reserve actor, there are very few people in the academy who do not pay attention to body management.
But there are also some lazy people.
Most of those people will choose cosmetic body shaping, extracting fat from the body, and then injecting various drugs to maintain muscle lines.
Su Shiyu is obviously not one of them.
There is a reason why Chu Xueyi likes her, but... most of the time, the good in the human body cannot overcome the evil.
At first, Su Shiyu thought that he should just reject Chu Xueyi directly and openly and not develop this ambiguous relationship.
However, Chu Xueyi was too generous.
Gold necklaces, jade, diamonds, and gemstone jewelry, anything that could be afforded was given to Su Shiyu.
Su Shiyu's heart was eventually corrupted, and he chose to maintain an ambiguous relationship with the person he liked while seducing Chu Xueyi.
"I was wondering why Chu Xueyi stopped being your lapdog. Turns out it's because...did she find Ji Qingshu?"
Ji Qingshu and Su Shiyu, even as Su Shiyu's good friends, knew it very well in their hearts.
In an ordinary university, as long as you are a little bit pretty, you can be called the class beauty or department beauty, but this is not the case in a performing arts university, let alone the top performing arts university.
Qingcheng Drama Academy has always been ranked first with another academy, and the competition between the two is fierce.
There have been more and more stars, actors and artists.
Hearing his friend say this, Su Shiyu quickly denied it, "No... but it looks more like Ji Qingshu stuck it on."
"Hahaha... How is that possible? How could someone like Ji Qingshu actively cling to others?"
"It's obvious that the two of them have a good relationship. Ji Qingshu has let down his guard."
Su Shiyu felt a little unhappy when he heard this. It felt as if the toy he was sure to get was suddenly given to someone else.
Why?
It's obviously just someone I don't like.
If you don’t love someone anymore, then you don’t love them anymore. At worst, just pretend nothing happened. When the wind blows, all your worries will disappear.
But why?
His eyes would still be fixed on Chu Xueyi.
The more Su Shiyu thought about it, the more annoyed he became.
At this moment, Ji Qingshu seemed to notice Su Shiyu hiding in the crowd, and she hugged Chu Xueyi's hand tighter.
Ji Qingshu raised his chin slightly, looking like he was declaring his sovereignty.
But it's obvious that there's only a vague ambiguity between the two of them. Are they competing to be the main wife?
Su Shiyu felt inexplicably amused.
The two of them walked faster and faster, and Chu Xueyi was about to pass by Su Shiyu. Su Shiyu hesitated for a moment, but then called out.
"Snow..."
But unexpectedly, Chu Xueyi was not as attentive as before. She just trembled, and left without even looking back.
It's like he doesn't want to have anything to do with himself.
Why? She was fine before she got sick.
Su Shiyu was puzzled.
