Chapter 49: 4.9 Billion "Love Rival Face to Face"
Qin Mo dusted himself off and was surprised when he saw Xin Jingli.
At first, he saw her as a girl with superior appearance whom he had never met before, and he wanted her to join the band he formed to serve as a front for the band, so he followed her.
I didn’t expect that the person opposite me was Xin Jingli.
How did she become so beautiful? So beautiful that he couldn't recognize her, so beautiful that she stood out in the crowd, so beautiful that he, the great Young Master Qin, would condescend to follow her.
This is unfortunate. I should build a good relationship with her and make up for the previous conflicts. Then Mr. Qin will be happy and he won't have to be scolded every day.
In Qin Mo's opinion, there is no good-looking girl who doesn't want to be famous and become a star.
"Do you want to join my band? You don't need to be able to sing or play any instrument. Just based on your looks, I have a way to make you a top star." Qin Mo asked Xin Jingli with his chin raised, feeling confident.
Xin Jingli looked him up and down and felt that Qin Mo was extremely childish.
Regardless of whether she was willing to participate or not, just based on what he said about being famous even if he had no ability, she felt that Qin Mo was not very smart.
She has money and good looks. If she wants others to admire her, she can just find a few dogs to boot. Is it necessary for her to go on stage and work hard, and risk being smeared to please fans?
Qin Mo didn't realize the look Xin Jingli gave him as if he was just an idiot, and continued, "My band disagreed with my marketing model a few days ago, so I kicked them all out. But don't worry, with you here, all operations will be under your command."
"What is your marketing model?" It was rare to hear about career from the playboy, so Xin Jingli was a little curious.
"It's all hype marketing. If you want to be famous now, don't you have to resort to scams?"
Xin Jingli: ...It was a waste of time. I really thought that a dog could spit out ivory.
A band doesn't sing or create, but instead focuses on traffic. Fortunately, those people left, so that they would not be delayed by Qin Mo.
"Play by yourself, I'm not interested."
"Hey? Let's add a good..."
Before Qin Mo could finish speaking, Xin Jingli turned and left.
Qin Mo appeared but there was no system prompt. He must be a bad person and cannot be a close friend.
However, she suddenly became curious about Qin Mo's data, "Little system, take a look at Qin Mo's data panel."
System voice sounded: [Name: Qin Mo
Age: 18
Height: 188cm
Weight: 69KG
Appearance: 8.8
Character failed.
Current favorability towards the host: 74
Does not meet the host's goal of "gaining favor"]
74?!
No, he really didn't mean any harm just now?
Xin Jingli was dumbfounded. Did they really come here to discuss the band? Didn't he mean it just now?
Besides, when did his favorability increase? During the Ferrari incident, Qin Mo had threatened to kill her.
Could it be that Mr. Qin told Qin Mo about her identity? So Qin Mo came to please her?
However, no matter which one, Qin Mo did not meet the prerequisite of character, so everything was in vain.
Xin Jingli didn't take it seriously. He walked into the street and was about to go to the live house. Just as he reached the door, Xu Zhanyan's surprised voice rang in his ears.
"Sister, why are you here?"
Xin Jingli turned his head.
Under the street light, Xu Zhanyan was still wearing a washed-out T-shirt, carrying a black shoulder bag, and holding a flyer in his hand. The wind blew, and the strands of hair on his forehead fluttered slightly.
After she turned her head, he looked at her with a look of excitement that seemed to come from another world.
In fact, they had not seen each other for only a few days, but for Xu Zhanyan, the fact that she had touched him all over before they separated made him miss her even more. Every day he looked forward to when she would ask about the defense system.
Unfortunately, she seemed to have forgotten him.
Perhaps it was because he missed her too much, but when they met again this time, Xu Zhanyan felt that Xin Jingli had become much more beautiful, so beautiful that he couldn't take his eyes off her.
It is true that beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.
"Sister, are you here to see the live house?" Xu Zhanyan asked expectantly.
After all, if it was, they could watch it together.
Xin Jingli nodded.
She thought, Xu Zhanyan's favorability was 94, one point short. Last time, she couldn't find where that point should be. Why not try this time?
"You too? Do you want to join us?" Xin Jingli approached him and asked, looking up.
Xu Zhanyan was planning to invite her, but he didn't expect Xin Jingli to ask him first. When she came closer, her delicate skin magnified in his eyes, and Xu Zhanyan's Adam's apple rolled impatiently.
He smelled the faint scent of perfume on her, but in the noisy street, he could only hear her voice. Her breathing, so light that it could be ignored, was deafening in his ears.
Xu Zhanyan clenched his fingers, causing wrinkles in the flyer.
"Okay." He couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
Remembering something, he moved closer to her, opened the flyer and handed it to her.
"Sister, this is my friend's band. They were just fired by their boss a few days ago and are now promoting their own music. I'm here to help. Can we go see this? I'll support them."
Yi Yi is the band's guitarist, so we asked him to join the group.
Xin Jingli took it, glanced at it, and was surprised.
【Jiyue Band】
Isn’t this the band that Qin Mo just mentioned, the one he threw away because they were unwilling to cooperate with the hype?
What a coincidence? She's actually Xu Zhanyan's friend.
So Qin Mo is suppressing them and wants to form a new band to compete with the Jiyue Band?
Then she has to take care of it. Besides, investing in a band is also worthwhile, right?
"Okay, take me there." Xin Jingli said.
She raised her eyes and met Xu Zhanyan's affectionate gaze, and her breathing stopped for half a second.
While she was thinking just now, Xu Zhanyan had been looking at her.
The little boy was experiencing love for the first time, and his eyes were too straightforward. The burning gaze was in stark contrast to his thin and cold figure, but Xin Jingli accidentally saw his joy.
Perhaps because of his background, Xu Zhanyan was too innocent and pure. She suddenly felt guilty. What should she do if he became a bootlicker and she couldn't explain to him?
She wanted to wait for the system to give her some advice, but there was no response. Xin Jingli then remembered that the system had been "muted" by her, and it could not retrieve her consciousness at this moment, making it impossible to communicate.
Forget it, I’ll ask the system when I get home tonight.
Xin Jingli followed Xu Zhanyan into an undecorated house. The lights changed rapidly. There were microphones and musical instruments on the stage. The band members had not yet come on stage. There were tables and chairs sparsely placed below the stage, and only half of them were occupied.
They sat down at an inconspicuous table in the corner of the stage.
"Sister, what would you like to drink?" Xu Zhanyan asked while holding the menu.
"It will be all right."
"Juice bar."
Xu Zhanyan called the waiter and ordered two glasses of juice.
The waiter was taking notes with a piece of paper and a pen and was about to leave when someone passed by and bumped into the waiter. The waiter staggered and was about to fall, and the tip of the pen stabbed Xin Jingli's neck.
"careful!"
Xu Zhanyan was quick to act, and he put his arm around Xin Jingli's shoulders, holding her in his arms.
The pen tip landed on the table, the waiter stood firm, and no one was hurt.
"Sorry!" The waiter apologized immediately. He was also shocked by the sudden incident.
Xin Jingli just waved his hand and said, "It's okay, go ahead and do your work." It wasn't intentional anyway.
After the waiter left, Xin Jingli turned her head, and in an instant, a warm breath passed over her forehead, as if it was just 0.0001 mm away, and the soft lips kissed her forehead.
She was stunned.
Only then did he realize that he was leaning in Xu Zhanyan's arms.
Xin Jingli raised his head, his pupils trembling.
Xu Zhanyan half-closed his eyes and stared at her quietly. The dancing and changing lights hit his eyebrows, which was affectionate and moving.
He gradually tilted his head and moved closer to the corner of her mouth.
Xin Jingli froze, not knowing how to react.
Push it away?
She actually didn't want to. Xu Zhanyan was a handsome, careful, and clean boy, and kissing him didn't seem like a bad thing.
And she had to admit that at the age of 23, she was indeed vaguely attracted to good-looking men.
Besides, would this kiss make Xu Zhanyan's favorability jump to 95, and immediately turn him into a bootlicker?
Don't push it away?
But this kind of ambiguous kiss didn't seem right, did it? It felt like something was missing, and it made her seem like she wasn't a good person, but rather... a wealthy mother supporting a gigolo.
But……
Forget it, being a dog licker is more important. I have to first figure out whether kissing is the last hurdle for being a dog licker. This way it will be much easier to deal with people like Xi Jiyu in the future.
Profits are the most important thing in everything.
Xin Jingli blinked slightly and slowly tilted his head.
She placed her hands on Xu Zhanyan's chest. Perhaps sensing her cooperation, Xu Zhanyan's heartbeat quickened, thumping against her palms as if it was about to rush into her body.
It was Xin Jingli's first time to have such close contact with such a handsome man, and she couldn't help but feel touched, and her cheeks became hot involuntarily.
As the distance shortened, Xu Zhanyan's body temperature rose, his breath became hot, and it hit the tip of her lips, making her feel numb and tingling.
She heard the sound of Xu Zhanyan swallowing, the movement of his Adam's apple, and the uncontrollable breathing rate of excitement when they were about to make contact.
The second before the two hormones intertwined wantonly.
Buzz-
Xin Jingli's cell phone rang at an inopportune time.
Neither of them was good at love, and being interrupted was enough to make them blush.
Xu Zhanyan immediately let go of her and turned to look at the stage. His earlobes were burning purple, and he kept clearing his throat and licking his dry lips.
Even though he didn't kiss her, the fact that she didn't refuse just now showed that she was still interested in him.
Xu Zhanyan couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.
Xin Jingli also blinked, took a deep breath and adjusted herself, then opened her phone and was told to move the car.
Move the car? Wasn't she parked in the parking space?
Not knowing whether it was true or not, she told Xu Zhanyan something and then got up to go out and see what was going on.
Xu Zhanyan watched her leave and began to look forward to watching the live house scene together when she came back.
The lights dimmed, and he let it go and held hands. It must have been very romantic for her to not refuse like she had just done. It was the first time he wanted to have physical contact with a girl so much.
He lowered his eyes and looked at his chest which she had just touched, and couldn't stop smiling.
Someone sat down next to her, and Xu Zhanyan looked up, thinking it was her, and her smile froze.
He was the man who rode his bike home with Xin Jingli at Chenhong’s door.
Why is he here? Shouldn't he be secretly protecting Xin Jingli? She went out, why didn't he follow her? Or did she come back too?
Xu Zhanyan looked in the direction Xin Jingli left.
"Don't look at it." Jin Jingfang said coldly.
"What does this have to do with you?" Xu Zhanyan's face darkened.
Xin Jingli had told him at the beginning that she and Jin Jingfang had no relationship and were not a couple.
That is, a love rival.
Xu Zhanyan didn't want to admit it, but he was indeed jealous now. Feelings were selfish. He hated any opposite sex around Xin Jingli and wished they all died so that his sister would be his alone.
"It was you who sent a message to your sister just now. You were jealous when you saw her wanting to kiss me." Xu Zhanyan rubbed salt into Jin Jingfang's wound.
