The farce left Gu Baiwei even more exhausted, and she soon drifted off to sleep after lying in bed for a short while.
Before going to sleep, I was wondering why no one upstairs reacted to such a loud noise. Did they not hear it? Or did they simply not want to get involved?
Guo, the assistant director, was probably exhausted from working so hard last night. What about the others?
If I remember correctly, besides them, Su Peipei, Su Muqing, and Du Qingyan also live on this floor. Why aren't these three reacting? Are they sleeping so soundly?
The next morning, Gu Baiwei was startled when she opened her door and was startled by a figure that suddenly appeared at the doorway.
Liu Ming was wearing a blue floral shirt and ripped jeans. His hair was neatly combed back, and he was holding a bouquet of roses. When he saw her come out, he immediately tossed his hair and said in what he thought was a dashing manner, "Good morning, Miss Gu."
This old-fashioned way of striking up a conversation, along with that greasy outfit, made Gu Baiwei want to roll her eyes, but she managed to hold back thanks to her strong willpower.
I greeted him with a smile: "Hello."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the door clicked open, and Shen Xuan strode out of the room.
He wore a simple white printed T-shirt and khaki jogger pants. With his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs, standing next to Liu Ming, he was a clear visual stunner.
"Good morning, sister."
Shen Xuan saw the smile on her face and naturally walked towards her, conveniently shielding Liu Ming behind him.
As she passed Liu Ming, her smile paused for a moment: "Good morning, sister."
"morning."
Gu Baiwei responded politely, and the two walked out one after the other, completely ignoring Liu Ming standing to the side.
Liu Ming, holding the flowers, followed after her somewhat reluctantly: "Miss Gu, these flowers are for you. I don't know if you like them?"
He stared at Gu Baiwei's face with fascination; he had never seen such a beautiful woman in his more than twenty years of life.
Su Peipei happened to come out of the room and saw this scene. She secretly took out her phone, found an angle to take a few pictures, and looked at the photos. She sneered as she looked at the pictures. This vixen only knows how to seduce men. Sooner or later, she will ruin her reputation.
Gu Baiwei was so annoyed by Liu Ming's nagging that she didn't even notice Su Peipei secretly observing them from a short distance away.
"Excuse me, I don't like flowers, thank you."
She refused without hesitation and quickened her pace to leave, but Liu Ming was unwilling to give up so easily: "Miss Gu, what do you like? I'll get you something else next time, okay?"
Gu Baiwei pressed her temples. Was this person deaf? Hadn't she been tactful enough in her refusal?
"I'm sorry, my boyfriend will get me whatever I want, so you don't need to bother."
As she spoke, she continued walking out, completely ignoring Liu Ming.
Liu Ming raised his foot to chase after him again, but Shen Xuan blocked his way.
Shen Xuan deliberately slowed his pace to distance himself from Gu Baiwei, his deep eyes looking at Liu Ming with a faint smile on his lips, but his eyes were icy cold: "Get lost!"
Liu Ming was startled by his sinister tone and instinctively stopped in his tracks.
Shen Xuan turned around and followed Gu Baiwei, still smiling as he chatted with her about the filming schedule for the day, completely unlike the gloomy and violent demeanor he had shown when facing Liu Ming earlier.
Liu Ming stood there stunned for a moment before he came to his senses. Just thinking about Shen Xuan's extremely sinister eyes made his legs go weak. He felt that this pretty boy was a bit eerie.
While he was still in a daze, Shen Xuan had already followed Gu Baiwei out the door.
The two walked out while discussing the scenes they were going to film that day.
When I got to the door, I saw a black Maybach parked on the roadside not far away.
Gu Baiwei couldn't help but take another look. If it weren't for the local license plate, Gu Baiwei would have suspected that it was Shen Yanqing's car.
Shen Yanqing's car had a license plate from Linhai City, and the number was a lucky one—a string of eights.
When Gu Baiwei learned that the license plate was worth five or six million, she was so shocked that her eyes almost popped out.
Is Shen Yanqing just burning money by spending so much on a license plate?
Unexpectedly, there are people as extravagant as Boss Shen, and they even share the same hobbies, with the same car brand and model.
Just then, the car door opened, and a pair of long legs encased in well-fitted dark gray suit trousers emerged from the car.
Gu Baiwei was stunned for a moment, and then she saw Shen Yanqing get out of the car. He still had a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose. His deep and handsome features, as well as his noble temperament that could not be ignored, easily attracted everyone's attention. It was as if he was born to be admired.
Gu Baiwei was surprised to see him so early in the morning, and for a moment she forgot how to react.
Shen Yanqing looked at her with gentle eyes, but when he saw Shen Xuan standing next to her, his face instantly turned cold: "What are you doing here?"
Meeting his cold gaze, Shen Xuan smiled gently as always: "Of course I'm here to film, brother."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Shen Yanqing with a smile in his eyes, as if they were really just ordinary brothers.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yanqing frowned in disgust: "Don't call me that, you're not worthy!"
He reached out and took Gu Baiwei's hand: "Weiwei, come with me for a moment."
Pulled by him, Gu Baiwei belatedly realized that the two of them actually knew each other, and Shen Xuan even called Shen Yanqing "brother"? But wasn't Shen Yanqing an only child? Could they be cousins?
Lost in thought, Shen Yanqing had already pulled her by the hand and dragged her into a small grove of trees.
As soon as I stood still, I smelled the familiar, cool scent of pine wood, and my cheek was instantly pressed against a hot, firm chest.
"Weiwei."
Shen Yanqing held her in his arms, inhaling her delicate fragrance, and felt that the longing he had felt over the past few days was now relieved.
He has always been a very detached person, and apart from power and status, nothing else can disturb his emotions.
Countless women have tried to get into his bed, but no matter how beautiful a woman is, she is no different from a piece of wood in his eyes.
But when he saw Gu Baiwei walking with his nominal younger brother, he felt incredibly annoyed.
He found it extremely offensive to see the two of them chatting and laughing, and wished he could make this bastard disappear completely, just like his shameless mother.
He rested his chin on Gu Baiwei's neck, inhaling her sweet kisses, and his restless heart slowly calmed down.
“Weiwei, Shen Xuan isn’t as good as he seems. You’d better stay away from him.”
Hearing Shen Yanqing say this, Gu Baiwei suddenly became a little curious. What exactly was the relationship between Shen Xuan and Shen Yanqing?
Regarding the novel's content, she only knew a few main characters and didn't have much of an impression of Shen Xuan. However, she did remember that Shen Yanqing seemed to have a half-brother. Could Shen Xuan be...?
