Chapter 13: Beautiful
The next morning, Qi Xing went to Lin Zhinian's studio again.
Lin Zhinian had just come back from taking notes and was cleaning up the messy studio with a few assistants. Qi Xing came in to greet him. He stood up, looking a little embarrassed: "Sorry, Mr. Qi, it's still a mess here, so I can't entertain you."
Qi Xing waved his hand: "Teacher Lin, please sit down and rest for a while. You are sweating. How is your hand?"
"I'm fine," Lin Zhinian said, "Is Mr. Qi here to get his phone?"
"I came to see you and get my phone." Qi Xing picked up his phone from the table and put it in his pocket. "When will you be well? Come with me for lunch?"
Lin Zhinian looked embarrassed: "I'm afraid it won't work today. I definitely won't be able to finish it before noon. I have an appointment with a lawyer to negotiate with the agency this afternoon. I don't want to go out."
"Lawyer?" Qi Xing asked casually, "Did Ye Xingzhou find a lawyer for you?"
Lin Zhinian nodded: "Well, fortunately, Xingzhou is here to help."
Qi Xing said unhappily, "If you had told me earlier, I could have helped you find a lawyer. The legal advisors that my dad's company works with are all capable. It's just a small matter."
"It's better not to bother you. Thank you." Lin Zhinian thanked him again.
Qi Xing felt unhappy. That bastard Ye Xingzhou was cold and boring, and there was something wrong with his brain. He didn't know what Lin Zhinian saw in him.
"I asked you about the flowers last night. I really sent you a bouquet of flowers before. I sent it directly to the art exhibition, but Ye Xingzhou threw it away. He is shameless and treats other people's things casually. What's the difference between him and a thief?"
Qi Xing spared no effort in fabricating his love rival, trying his best to make Lin Zhinian recognize Ye Xingzhou's true face.
However, Lin Zhinian did not appreciate it and his expression became more and more embarrassed: "Xingzhou probably didn't mean it. He knows that I am allergic to flowers. Sorry, Mr. Qi."
"Okay, what do I need you to apologize for?" Qi Xing was not interested in listening to him. "Are you really not going to eat?"
Lin Zhinian: "No, maybe next time."
Qi Xing curled his lips: "Okay, next time."
Before leaving, he asked one last question: "Will Ye Xingzhou come to accompany you to see the lawyer this afternoon?"
Lin Zhinian paused and replied, "No, he is busy with work."
Qi Xing was satisfied, and walked away with his tail up in a proud manner. Ye Xingzhou was so indifferent to Lin Zhinian, so if he kept working hard, he would be able to win the beauty sooner or later.
Since he failed to make an appointment with Lin Zhinian, Qi Xing drove around the street, which was boring, so he finally went to the company.
He had just graduated from college and was just getting by in his own company, temporarily working as a deputy manager of a marginal department. He came to work after 10 a.m. every day and left before 5 p.m. He wouldn't come if he had something else, and no one could say anything to him.
Qi Xing has no ambition. After all, his father is too lucky and good at making money. He can spend all the money he has in his lifetime. Why should he be a social animal when he can be a spendthrift?
When Qi Xing was bored, he remembered what Ye Xingzhou asked him to do last night to compensate for the tie. It was just a tie, he could afford it, so he called his father's personal assistant, who readily agreed and said that he would get it done at noon.
After the explanation, Qi Xing was too lazy to care about the matter anymore and simply put it out of his mind.
At 4:30, Yang Kaiming called and asked him to go out for drinks in the evening, and asked him if he had got the car last night.
Qi Xing only had two words to say: "Bad luck."
He didn't want to go, as he would be teased by Yang Kaiming and his gang if he went. However, Yang Kaiming told him that Ye Wanqi's grandson would most likely go to the nightclub they often went to tonight, allowing him to take revenge and complain.
Qi Xing held the phone in his hand and changed his mind: "Then go."
At eight o'clock in the evening, Qi Xing appeared in the nightclub, and Yang Kaiming and his friends had just started their first round of drinks.
As soon as Qi Xing sat down, he became the focus of everyone's attention. Everyone asked him whether he had defeated Ye Wanqi last night. Qi Xing didn't want to talk about it: "Where's the grandson? Didn't they say he would come? Why didn't I see him?"
Yang Kaiming said: "Not so early, probably the second batch will come here, don't worry, Qi Shao, I have someone watching them, they can't run away."
Qi Xing was a little unhappy. He drank two glasses of wine, chatted with others idly, felt bored, and got up to go to the bathroom outside.
As soon as he walked in, he ran into someone he knew. The other person came over to greet him timidly, and said in a gentle and resentful voice: "Mr. Qi."
Qi Xing glanced over and saw the little star he had fancied before. He had almost forgotten about this person.
The little star approached him with a wronged expression on his face: "Mr. Qi, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you busy recently?"
Looking at the other party's pretentious appearance, Qi Xing felt disgusted and suspected that he was really blind to fall in love with this kind of thing.
He didn't say anything, just stared at the other person, not sure what he was thinking, so he bit the bullet and said ingratiatingly, "Master Qi, I have a new movie coming out soon, do you want to go see it? I'll give you a ticket."
Qi Xing asked slowly, "What role do you play in the movie? Can your role be three minutes long?"
The little star looked embarrassed: "Yes, yes, almost."
"It's only three minutes. Isn't that a waste of my time?" Qi Xing's face turned cold. "Do you think I have nothing to do?"
Little Star: "Master Qi said before that he wanted to see..."
"I wanted you to sleep with me before, but you refused?" Qi Xing interrupted him rudely.
The little star blushed and said, "Now you can."
Qi Xing: "Forget it, I can't."
Being rejected by him outright, the little celebrity's face turned even redder: "I was ignorant before, Mr. Qi, please don't bear grudge against me..."
"Who would argue with you?" Qi Xing said impatiently, "Stop flattering yourself. What? You didn't hook up with the rich lady, and now you're thinking about me, the young master?"
"Okay, if you kneel down and lick my shoes clean, I'll reluctantly give you a chance to mend your ways."
Qi Xing had no psychological burden when humiliating people. The little celebrity pretended for a long time, but finally he couldn't hold it anymore. There was a fleeting anger in his eyes. He met Qi Xing's sarcastic gaze, but he held it back. He gritted his teeth and squatted down, holding one of Qi Xing's shoes with both hands.
Seeing that he was hesitating and had no next move, Qi Xing raised his foot and hooked his chin with the tip of his shoe. Looking at the funny expression on the little star's face, which was humiliated and angry, and had to hide it desperately to please him, he said with a smile: "Tell me, are you a bitch?"
"I was sincere to you before, young master. You were so coy and refused to obey me, so I thought you had a backbone, but you ended up hooking up with a rich woman who is old enough to be your mother. What do you want?"
"Just because she's a woman and I'm a man? Young Master, I'm as beautiful as a flower, how can I be wronged by you?"
After he finished speaking, a chuckle suddenly came from outside the door. It was not obvious, but hard to ignore.
Qi Xing frowned, retracted his legs, and took two steps back to the door. It was indeed Ye Xingzhou, leaning against the wall outside the bathroom, smoking. It was unknown how long he had been eavesdropping here.
"What are you laughing at? Does Young Master Ye like being a thief so much?" Qi Xing started cursing.
Ye Xingzhou's smile faded, and he glanced over, raising his eyebrows: "As beautiful as a flower?"
Qi Xing: “…”
Someone come and sew up this man's mouth, even if it's just your own mouth that you sewed up two minutes ago.
The little star also came out, still not giving up, and hesitantly called Qi Xing. Qi Xing glared at him and said, "Get lost."
The little star walked away dejectedly. Qi Xing ignored Ye Xingzhou and went back into the bathroom.
Ye Xingzhou followed in. Qi Xing turned around and saw him, becoming more and more impatient: "You want to watch me pee too?"
Ye Xingzhou continued smoking by the sink, showing no intention of leaving.
Qi Xing was too lazy to talk to him anymore and turned back to deal with his own issues.
Ye Xingzhou's gaze fell on his butt, and he slowly exhaled a puff of smoke.
The boy was wearing slim-fit suit pants, with light grey fabric wrapped around his plump and round buttocks. His buttocks unconsciously tightened towards the middle due to the action of urinating, but he himself was unaware of it.
Two minutes later, Qi Xing walked back to the sink to wash his hands refreshed, and tidied up his messy hair.
He looked at his face in the mirror and still felt that what he had just said was not wrong. He was already as beautiful as a flower, and it was that little star who was blind.
When he looked away, he saw Ye Xingzhou staring at him from behind in the mirror. Qi Xing asked unhappily, "What on earth does Ye Shao want to do?"
He turned around and was about to say something, but Ye Xingzhou suddenly leaned forward, holding a cigarette in his mouth, and flicked his newly wet hair with his fingers.
Qi Xing was stunned. Ye Xingzhou's hand had already slid down and brushed his face. Qi Xing was so frightened that he slipped and almost fell down, but was supported by Ye Xingzhou's arm.
"Are you a pervert?" Qi Xing came back to his senses, angry and embarrassed.
Ye Xingzhou took his hand back slowly: "I said last time that if someone touches you casually, you will look like you have been flirted with. With your expression, why are you trying to imitate others in chasing men?"
Qi Xing: "You fucking..."
Ye Xingzhou: "Don't say bad words."
"Why does my pursuing Mr. Lin bother you? You don't like him, but you don't let me pursue him. Do you have any fun? Why do you have to keep things you don't like away from others?"
Qi Xing was really annoyed. He had been used to having everything go smoothly since he was a child. This was the first time he encountered a disaster and nemesis like Ye Xingzhou. And this person always appeared in front of him.
Ye Xingzhou: “Yeah.”
Qi Xing: "Hmm what?"
Ye Xingzhou seemed to be pleased by his breath-holding appearance, and said in a cheerful voice: "She is as beautiful as a flower, quite suitable."
Qi Xing: "I'll give you these four words. Master Ye is more suitable."
Ye Xingzhou didn't care. He casually put out his cigarette butt on the sink and said slowly, "It doesn't matter whether I like it or not. It's my stuff, and I hate others touching it."
Qi Xing understood: "So if your car was hit by someone, you would rather burn it? Are you crazy?"
"Just assume it's there," Ye Xingzhou raised his eyes and looked at him, "If it's something I like, I'll be even more unhappy if others touch it. If anyone dares to touch it..."
Qi Xing subconsciously asked: "What if I touched it?"
Ye Xingzhou said in a faint voice: "Then let's give it a try."
Qi Xing felt uncomfortable listening to this and thought, who are you threatening? I just want to touch you.
Besides, this person obviously doesn’t like Lin Zhinian, so what nonsense is he talking about.
He had no interest in talking nonsense with Ye Xingzhou anymore, so he turned around and walked away. Suddenly, a hand reached out and grabbed his wrist, dragging him back violently.
Without waiting for Qi Xing to react, Ye Xingzhou's other hand quickly slid from his waist to his buttocks and rubbed them in an extremely erotic manner. Qi Xing's eyes widened, and if his right hand had not been held by Ye Xingzhou, he would have already punched him.
"you--"
Ye Xingzhou quickly let him go and stepped back, as if nothing had happened, as if what happened just now was Qi Xing's illusion: "Let's go."
Qi Xing's mind went wild, and he was about to beat someone up on the spot. Yang Kaiming's voice came from outside: "Qi Shao, are you growing mushrooms in the toilet? Why haven't you come out yet?"
Ye Xingzhou reminded him leisurely: "Your friend is here."
Qi Xing endured it for a moment, took a deep breath, and said viciously: "I'll settle it with you next time."
Seeing Qi Xing coming out of the bathroom angrily, Yang Kaiming was about to ask, but Ye Xingzhou followed him out and glanced at him coldly.
Yang Kaiming choked for a moment. Qi Xing had already left. He quickly chased after him and lowered his voice: "Why is Ye Xingzhou here? Did he do it to you in the toilet, Mr. Qi?"
Qi Xing: “…get out.”
