When Pei Hanzhou pushed the door open, Lin Luosang was secretly opening the small box that his assistant had just brought.
The man suddenly opened the door. She was startled and instinctively hid the things behind her. When she met his gaze, she was panicked for a moment.
Pei Hanzhou frowned slightly: "What are you doing?"
"No... nothing," she hid the box behind her again, swallowed her saliva and stepped back, even giving a fake smile to cooperate, "There's nothing I need to hide from you."
If she had acted calmer and more composed, perhaps he wouldn't have noticed if she did something bad in front of him. Unfortunately, she almost had the words "doing something bad" carved on her face, and the last sentence seemed to be an attempt to cover up the truth. Pei Hanzhou, who had just asked casually, suddenly realized the seriousness of the incident.
He didn't give her any room to react. He strode up behind her and quickly grabbed her wrist to prevent her from switching things up. Then, the man took out a... macaron from her hand?
Pei Hanzhou: “…”
She was so panicked that he thought there was a strange man hiding at home. She wanted to send a message to someone else, but after all this time, it turned out to be a pink macaron?
"What's so good about macarons?" The man wasted his expression, feeling relieved yet a bit speechless. "Is there a state secret hidden inside?"
"I wasn't planning on hiding. Who would hide something in the living room?" She snatched back her strawberry cheese macaron, cleared her throat, and switched to the righteous channel. "You came back so suddenly. Didn't you always take a long break before coming back? I thought you wouldn't come back today. Plus, I already felt a little guilty about buying this. When you scared me, I... subconsciously dodged."
Seeing that Pei Hanzhou didn't say anything, she stretched out her index finger and made a very tiny gap, and said pitifully: "I'll only eat a little, I promise."
The man was completely confused. "Is there any contract in your company that says eating dessert is illegal?"
"I need to manage my figure and not eat too much sweets. I'm also a self-disciplined artist," she patted her chest. "If you weren't tempting me with sweets at home every day, I'd only crave them once every six months."
She really only ate a little bit when she said she would. After taking a small bite, she was about to put the macaron back into the box. However, before she could reach out, someone interrupted her. The man leaned over and the rest of the food went into Pei Hanzhou's stomach.
After finishing the meal, this person shamelessly said, "It's not as good as mine."
Lin Luosang, who had recovered, curled his lips and slowly replied, propping up his head, "Of course. Who can compare to you? You are the origin of all things, the truth of the universe, the best in the world, a rare treasure beyond the reach of the human world. Your great achievements should be engraved on a stone tablet for eternity, for the world to read and admire."
“…”
Lin Luosang turned the box around and asked, "Why are you back at this time?"
Now it was the man's turn to ponder for a moment before saying, "Just looking around. The flowers haven't been watered yet."
Lin Luosang looked towards the balcony and hit the nail on the head: "If you water that flower again, it will die."
"Have you been quite free lately?" She remembered that he was home almost every day recently. She put her elbows on the edge of the table and asked, "Is the company running smoothly? Are there any problems?"
Thinking about his almost non-stop meetings and his average sleep time of no more than five hours, the man didn't know how he had become known as "very idle" in his wife's mind.
He glanced at her casually and said calmly, "Don't worry, I can support you even if something goes wrong."
"You don't have to be able to support me," she said, smiling innocently, "as long as you can support my music."
Pei Hanzhou: “…”
Lin Luosang is about to start producing her first album. She plans to make three music videos and hire the best recording studios, producers and bands. The budget starts from 10 million. Although she has the money herself, she also needs sponsorship from unscrupulous capitalists in many areas.
Besides, her money sometimes has to be used on stage or in many other places, and she can't just throw it away without a plan.
Thinking of this, she was overwhelmed by nervousness again and went into the study with her computer to get busy.
As soon as she started working on something, she returned to her usual habits, with her head full of pens, and when she encountered something difficult, she would stand up and change the composition location, with one earphone in her ear and the other hanging on her shoulder.
After working hard for more than half an hour, she vaguely felt that someone was looking at her. She turned her head and happened to meet Pei Hanzhou face to face.
He held a fresh mocha in his hand and leaned against the door frame, looking at her.
"You're so bored that you come to watch me make music, and you still say you're not free?"
Lin Luosang spoke hesitantly, "If the company has any difficulties, you can really tell me. I'm not the kind of person who would abandon her husband and children in times of crisis."
"If you're not daydreaming, why not think about your song?" the man put down his cup. "Even if the universe exploded, it wouldn't cause any harm to me."
As if to prove his point, the man left a short while later, heading for his new work assignment.
He didn't come back until after ten o'clock in the evening, and brought Luo Xun with him.
Lin Luosang had received a notice from the secretary in advance, so she was not surprised. Of course, the secretary also tactfully asked her to add Pei Hanzhou on WeChat, but she tactfully pretended not to understand.
As soon as Luo Xun saw her, he greeted her warmly: "Good evening, sister-in-law. Long time no see. How have you been recently? Are you going to perform on stage tomorrow? What are you going to sing?"
Lin Luosang opened his mouth and was about to answer, but before he could, the man pulled Luo Xun into the innermost conference room and said, "Finish your own business first before worrying about others."
Then he slammed the door shut.
Luo Xun persevered in opening the door, poked his head out, and smiled very honestly: "How can my sister-in-law's affairs be considered other matters? My sister-in-law's stage is my stage, and I am my sister-in-law's fan..."
The door closed again the next second. Pei Hanzhou pulled the door lock and turned the key a few times, locking Luo Xun inside.
"Come out after you finish sorting out the contract."
Luo Xun: “…”
Lin Luosang finally wanted to share his new ideas with others, but Luo Xun was busy with official duties. He asked regretfully, "What else does he want to do?"
"Many clauses in the contract need to be rechecked, and the information is all here, so I asked him to come directly."
She nodded, and when she turned around she heard the man's calm voice: "You really care about him."
"Of course, your business is my business, and your friends are my friends," Lin Luosang stroked his heart and said softly, "I care about you too. Are you hungry? I'll make you some bitter melon scrambled eggs."
Pei Hanzhou: “…”
"Go write some songs," the man said. "Your greatest concern for me is not going into the kitchen."
Lin Luosang gritted his teeth and turned around to write songs.
As she wrote, she thought of the stage that Luo Xun had just mentioned, and inexplicably rekindled her desire to rehearse, so she took the props and prepared to perform another impromptu performance.
The props for "Unbinding" were simple: a chair and a long bundle of rope, but the dance to be performed was very complicated. She sat on the bed, not wanting to move the chair around, nor leaving the warm bed, so she simply repeated the binding and unbinding movements with the rope at the head of the bed.
What she didn't expect was that the headboard and the stool were not made in the same structure, but she used the same binding method, so the final result was naturally... unable to untie them.
She tied herself to the head of the bed.
………………
She felt that she must have a grudge against Pei Hanzhou, which was why all the problems arose when she was with him.
Lin Luosang did not give up and continued to try to untie the rope for ten minutes. Finally, he collapsed on the bed due to exhaustion, and had the negative idea of just tying himself up and leaving it at that.
It wasn't until Pei Hanzhou came out of the bathroom after taking a shower that he frowned when he saw her expression and posture: "What are you playing at again?"
"It's a long story," she frowned in despair, her voice slightly hoarse from exhaustion, "Can you help me untie it?"
Pei Hanzhou: “…………What?”
"There's a rope behind my hands, it's tied up and I can't move."
"Who did it?" The man's brows deepened. "Luo Xun is out?"
"Myself."
When she finished speaking, the corners of Pei Hanzhou's eyes trembled, and the atmosphere fell into a strange and rigid silence.
Pei Hanzhou wiped his hair helplessly, sat on the edge of the bed and let her stand up, while he observed the situation behind her.
Lin Luosang asked, "How is it? Is it easy to solve?"
He didn't answer directly: "I'm thinking about a question."
"What?"
"If you're kidnapped in the future, I absolutely won't let you escape on your own," he said. "You'll only be driving yourself to death."
“…”What kind of bastard is this?
Lin Luosang stood up straight and wanted to kick him: "Can you please respect the victim's psychological condition a little? Don't you think I will collapse?"
"You're not the victim, the rope is." Pei Hanzhou touched the red part of her wrist. "You can still scream so loudly, it seems that nothing is wrong."
She was about to speak, and her wrist was a little itchy from his rubbing. Unexpectedly, she heard the man's low voice behind her, "Don't move. I'm going to cut it."
Lin Luosang, who cherished his life like gold, really didn't move. Listening to the quick, sharp sounds, he was afraid that he might miss his aim and cut his flesh. His scalp tingled as he trembled and made a request, "...Can you go a little slower? I'm a little scared of you."
"Relax a little."
"I can't relax."
The man must have been dealing with her wrist. When he lifted the rope, it squeezed her delicate skin. Hearing her gasp, he asked, "Does it hurt?"
"It's okay, just a little bloating and pain. The rope is too tight... Go on, finish it soon so I can go to bed early..."
Before Lin Luosang could finish her words, there was a dull sound of something heavy falling to the ground at the door. Pei Hanzhou ignored it and concentrated on cutting the rope. She leaned out to see.
Luo Xun had just come up to take credit when he heard the second half of the conversation, words like "don't move", "rope", "swelling and pain", "hurry up" and so on... Some unspeakable erotic scenes came to his mind. Even though Luo Xun was used to big scenes, he was frightened by his own imagination and fainted on the spot, dropping the computer to the ground.
At this moment, he picked it up with an apologetic and surprised look on his face, and asked cautiously: "Did I disturb you?"
Lin Luosang: “…”
"No, you misunderstood, listen to me—"
Luo Xun immediately covered his eyes: "No, no, no! I'm leaving right away! I've packed my stuff and put the computer at the door of your bedroom. It's in the folder. The third one should be fine. I'll take a taxi and leave later. Don't worry about me. I'm leaving like this!!"
Immediately afterwards, there was a sound of bangs coming down the stairs. Luo Xun left like the wind, and slammed the door with a high-decibel sound, as if to remind the two people in the bedroom: the light bulb is out, please continue with peace of mind.
Lin Luosang opened his lips, and thousands of words of explanation swirled around his lips before being swallowed back into his throat.
What kind of inexplicable misunderstanding is this?
She closed her eyes and her head ached.
Compared to her, the man seemed much more nonchalant, his breathing not even a bit disordered, and he even had the mind to make fun of her——
"Do you know how powerful I am? Will you dare to do it again next time?"
The ropes were finally untied, and she rubbed her slightly red wrists: "For the stage, I will dare to do it again next time."
“…”
Pei Hanzhou threw the rope into the trash can, paused for a moment and said, "When the time comes, you won't..."
"I won't make any mistakes during my performance. Please don't curse my stage," she replied immediately. "Today's problem only occurred because the bed and chair are constructed differently. On stage, I absolutely, absolutely won't make the slightest mistake."
After a moment's thought he added, "If I make a mistake I will eat the chair right there and then."
"Okay," Pei Hanzhou wiped his hair with a towel, "Let's wait and see."
On the day of the program recording, she planned to get up at six o'clock to go to rehearsal. Unexpectedly, the gloomy weather gave rise to people's desire to sleep. When the sharp alarm sounded, her subconscious mind chose "remind later" for herself without hesitation, and then waited peacefully for the next round of wake-up service, keeping the posture of holding the phone and closing her heavy eyes.
The wake-up service began to show results after five rounds of battle with her sleepiness. Lin Luosang suddenly woke up from her sleep, jumped up with a somersault, and lifted the quilt to wake herself up quickly.
Just as she picked up her clothes to put them on, she seemed to see something out of the corner of her eye. She slowly turned her head and met Pei Hanzhou's ambiguous gaze.
The quilt she had just lifted was now arrogantly covering his computer, blocking his display screen.
Lin Luosang laughed dryly without any emotion, pulled the quilt back to its original position on his side, and then coughed to explain: "I didn't expect you to be in bed. Sorry."
The man lowered his head and continued to work. She took the clothes she needed to change and went into the bathroom. While putting on her sweater, she was still wondering why he was in bed today.
According to past experience, he had either left home long ago or was busy working. In any case, when she woke up, there would be no warmth left on the side where he had slept, and she always woke up alone.
But there was no time to ask more questions. She drank a cup of hot water and immediately went to the studio.
Cereals and steaming porridge had been prepared for her in the lounge. The program crew followed Pei Hanzhou's instructions and installed an air purifier and air conditioner for her. There was even a piano and a guitar in the corner, and the sofa had been replaced. Yue Hui liked to take a nap here when she had nothing to do, saying it was comfortable.
Whenever he saw the scene before him, Yue Hui couldn't help but sigh, "Who could have imagined that things would change so drastically over time? Lin Luosang, who was originally playing the role of a runner-up, suddenly became the darling of the production team. From this moment on, we have the role of the heroine with a cheat code, an invincible monster-killing heroine."
Lin Luosang: “It’s hard to say.”
Yue Hui's heart skipped a beat: "What's going on?"
"Nothing stays the same forever. Don't be discouraged when you're suppressed, and don't get too complacent when you're in power. Just keep a normal mindset."
She requires herself to always have a sense of crisis, to always be sober, and not to be arrogant when she wins or discouraged when she loses.
Yue Hui suppressed the smile on his face: "That makes sense—but I'm still happy, hehe."
Lin Luosang glanced at him and threw the clothes over: "Is anyone rehearsing now?"
"I asked, and they said we can go directly there."
Lin Luosang originally thought he could go directly there because no one was rehearsing, but when he got backstage he found Ni Tong was practicing there.
Listening to the melody, Ni Tong should have the last
