Chapter 49 Where did the arrogance that coaxed me back then go?
Quan Jing slowly finished his cigarette and told Shan Qingshan to get some rest, as they had to get up early tomorrow.
After Quan Jing left, Shan Qingshan saw a message from Zhou Chong on his phone.
Are you asleep?
Shan Qingshan replied, "Not yet, I'll go to sleep after taking a shower."
[Want to go live? I'll send you gifts!]
Dan Qingshan read the message, replied with "Get lost," and tossed his phone aside to take a shower. When he came out, he saw a number of messages on his phone.
"If you won't let me see, then let's shower together?"
Why isn't my brother saying anything?
Silence means agreement.
I count to three.
【one】
【two】
2.5
Then came two video calls.
【three】
Okay, we'll shower together from now on, it's settled then.
Shan Qingshan felt as if he had been hit on the face by abacus beads.
I was both annoyed and amused.
Reply to him: 【Boring】
【I slept】
The reply came instantly: "Goodnight."
Putting down his phone, Zhou Chong continued to pick out all the orange vitamin gummies and put them into the jar of freebies that You Liang and Zhou Shuo had half-eaten.
You Liang: "Brother, what are you doing?"
"Xiao Bao is allergic to mangoes, so from now on, if you're craving mangoes, eat these. Don't touch the big ones, understand?"
Looking at the jar of orange gummies, You Liang felt rather desolate.
"Brother, are you sure he's only allergic to mangoes? Is there anything else?"
For example, grape flavor, apple flavor, strawberry flavor...
Zhou Chong glanced at him.
You Liang quickly turned his back and shared the candy with Zhou Shuo.
The second day of filming at Shanqingshan was packed with activity, and they didn't wrap up until 4 a.m. By the time they got to the village, it was already past 9 p.m., and the live broadcast had ended.
The newly paved cement road was not yet dry, so the car entered the village via another road.
The director approached, saying shrewdly, "You've worked hard, Chief, bringing Shan Qingshan back so late. Have you two had dinner yet? If not, why don't you grab something to eat in the village? It's getting late, Chief, if you don't mind, you can make do in the village for the night?"
"good."
Director: "Since everyone is so busy, shall we not disturb them...?"
What did she just say?
good?
Get off the bus in complete silence.
Where do I live?
The director's CPU was overheated by that one word "good" and couldn't keep up for a while.
Zhou Chong heard the car and ran out.
"Qingshan Xiaobao! Why are you so late? Have you had dinner yet? You've been in the car for so long, aren't you tired? Does your butt hurt?"
Shan Qingshan tugged at him, and only then did Zhou Chong notice that there was a cool girl next to him.
Who is this?
"Quan Jing is in charge of the promotional filming for Shanqing Mountain this time."
Zhou Chong glanced at her.
She possesses an extraordinary temperament.
He's definitely not some kind of errand-running civil servant.
"Hello."
"Hello," Quan Jing asked the director again, "Where do I live?"
Director: "Let me think about it."
Zhou Chong had a flash of inspiration.
"If you don't mind, how about we go to Xiaobao's? I was worried Xiaobao hadn't eaten dinner, so I made some porridge. Jingjie, are you allergic to seafood? Want some to eat together?"
Quan Jing said, "I'm not allergic."
"Let's go then."
Zhou Chong grabbed Shan Qingshan and left.
After taking a couple of steps, Shan Qingshan realized what was happening and whispered, "Where in my house is there a bed?"
Zhou Chong couldn't help but chuckle, "Why don't you just sleep with me? It's not like we haven't slept together before."
"..."
"Don't worry, I've liked you for a long time. If I wanted to do something to you, I would have done it already. If you really don't want to, you can still kick him out now."
"..."
That's easy for you to say.
People in rural areas go to bed early.
How many houses have their lights on right now?
Shan Qingshan withdrew his hand and said coldly, "This is the last time."
Zhou Chong's treacherous scheme succeeded, and his steps home were incredibly light.
There was indeed porridge simmering in the rice cooker at home.
Zhou Chong served two bowls.
Quan Jing: "Boat congee? Such good conditions?"
Only then did Shan Qingshan notice that there were many things piled up against the wall in the kitchen.
He looked at Zhou Chong.
Zhou Chong quickly explained, "Your last medical report showed that you were malnourished and need to improve your health."
"The production team has no objections?"
"Why don't you ask the production team?"
He promised not to lie to Xiaobao.
But if the production team lies, then it has nothing to do with him.
The director, who happened to be passing by, was speechless.
The director poked his head out and said he needed to speak with Shan Qingshan. As he pulled his head back, he saw Zhou Chong's warning look and knew that if he dared to say anything more, he would be in trouble, so he silently kept his mouth shut.
The director came for product placement in the live stream.
Because of Zhou Chong's questionable actions, the sales of the products appearing in Shan Qingshan's live broadcast room have increased by at least 100%, and by several times, with some companies even seeing their market value double.
Director: "Several companies want you to be their spokesperson, and here's a stack of products they want to feature. Take a look when you have time and give me an answer before New Year's Day."
"good."
Shan Qingshan then asked, "Are the things Zhou Chong brought back alright?"
The director dared not tell the truth.
What's done is done.
All we could say was, "It's okay, we all know, we understand, we're considerate, no problem."
Shan Qingshan said nothing more and went back with the documents in his arms.
Zhou Chong picked it up casually, flipped through it, and said unhappily, "The endorsement fee is too low."
Shan Qingshan poked his head out. "That's quite a lot."
Zhou Chong pondered for a moment, then asked, "Sister Jing, when will your promotional video be released?"
Before New Year's Day.
Zhou Chong put the contract aside and said, "Then I'll talk to them after the video comes out."
"good."
Zhou Chong got up and changed the quilt cover and sheets on the bed where Shan Qingshan was sleeping.
It's okay to stay here, but I can't sleep in the room that Xiao Bao has already slept in.
He had already thought of an explanation, and he said in a grand and respectable way that Quan Jing was a guest and, being a girl, should sleep with someone clean.
After washing up, Shan Qingshan opened the door and found Zhou Chong already in bed, looking at him with shining eyes.
"Xiao Bao, come here quickly, I've warmed the bed for you."
"..."
Shan Qingshan suddenly felt as if he had entered a spider cave. Although there was only Zhou Chong in this cave, it was extremely powerful and could absorb all his vital energy in one go.
It's a little difficult to take that step.
Why hasn't the bandage on your head been removed yet?
"The doctor said we have to wait two more days."
"oh."
Shan Qingshan lifted the covers and lay down on the bed.
Zhou Chong asked, "What official position does Quan Jing hold?"
"minister."
"minister?"
Zhou Chong was so shocked he almost sat up.
"What's wrong?"
"As far as I know, someone at the ministerial level wouldn't take you on a filming trip... Could she have taken a liking to you?"
Zhou Chong thought about it more and more and it seemed very possible.
"Holy crap! I shouldn't have let her stay!"
Zhou Chong felt more and more regretful.
"If she tries to stay tomorrow, I'll kick her out. Just changing the sheets and blankets was too careless; I should change the whole thing, what if she secretly smells it in bed?"
"..."
Zhou Chong thought about it more and more and it seemed possible. He couldn't help but want to get up and take a look, but Shan Qingshan held him down.
"Where did you get such a twisted idea?"
"I..." It's not easy to explain.
Shan Qingshan gradually realized something.
"Did you do this while I wasn't home?"
Zhou Chong avoided eye contact.
The air pressure in the room gradually decreased.
Zhou Chong quickly explained, "I just lay down on it and smelled it, I didn't do anything else."
"What else can we do?" Shan Qingshan didn't realize the seriousness of the situation.
"...You want to know?"
Shan Qingshan realized the seriousness of the situation and closed his eyes.
"I don't want to, so shut up."
Zhou Chong obediently shut up.
Because Quan Jing was at Shan Qingshan's house, it was inconvenient for Shan Qingshan and Zhou Chong's live stream to be open. The production team was worried that netizens would investigate further, so they simply postponed everyone's broadcast time due to weather and equipment malfunction. The live stream would start after Quan Jing left at 8:30.
The other guests received notification of the live broadcast postponement the following morning.
Qian Wei asked in surprise, "Is it Qingshan's younger brother who's back?"
"yes."
"Then I'll go find him."
Qian Wei excitedly carried the steamed sweet potatoes and passed by Dong Hailan's house, asking, "Teacher Dong, would you like to come with me to find Qingshan, and then we can do the mission together?"
Dong Hailan came out and was about to say yes when she saw a familiar figure in the distance.
She changed her mind, saying, "I'm not going, I'll wait a bit."
Qian Wei, unsuspecting, hurried away, worried that the sweet potatoes would get cold.
Dong Hailan stayed in her room for a while, figuring that Quan Jing should have left, before opening the door and coming out.
The courtyard was deserted; there wasn't a single staff member present.
"Why are you hiding?"
Dong Hailan was startled.
Quan Jing was leaning against the wall, and she didn't even see her!
Quan Jing looked straight at her and walked towards her.
Where did your swagger go when you were coaxing me into taking off my clothes?
