I did consider breaking off the engagement, but then Ah Hui's situation came up.
She flew abroad overnight to bring Ah Hui back, but seeing the tense atmosphere at home, she didn't mention it again.
She's too lazy to do it now, and she can afford to wait.
Anyway, she wasn't the one suffering from this marriage.
Kong Xiaoxiao said angrily, "If the Gu family could control Gu Chunmian, they wouldn't have let her lock Xiao Yixue in the closet for four days, and Xiao Yixue almost died in the end. What did Gu Chunmian do? She didn't even say a word of scolding. It's only because Xiao Yixue is patient and didn't go astray, otherwise she would have gone crazy long ago."
Shen Fenghe thought, "That's about enough."
Seeing that Gu Yixue was deep in thought, Kong Xiaoxiao assumed she was considering how to resolve Gu Chunmian's situation, so she didn't disturb her and looked at Gu Yixue in the rearview mirror.
Gu Yixue had already put out her cigarette and was chatting happily with the woman opposite her.
After Shen Fenghe came to her senses, Kong Xiaoxiao asked, "Is Xiao Yixue in a relationship?"
Shen Fenghe: "Huh?"
"That woman across from her is quite pretty," Kong Xiaoxiao said. "By the way, she and..."
Kong Xiaoxiao paused for a moment: "I look a bit like you, have you noticed? Especially the eyes."
Shen Fenghe glanced at him: "That person is married."
Kong Xiaoxiao was stunned: "Huh? No way? Xiao Yixue is a mistress?"
Shen Fenghe: "..."
"What's wrong with your thinking?" Shen Fenghua was amused. "They're from the same film crew; they're actresses in her new drama."
Kong Xiaoxiao: "...Okay, that scared me to death."
Shen Fenghe stared at the man for a while, then tapped the steering wheel lightly with her fingers. "How does he resemble me?"
“Just look at the eyes,” Kong Xiaoxiao said. “The pupil color is similar, and the contours of the face are similar too. Even if you put her and Shen Hui in front of me and asked me to recognize each other, I might not be able to mistake Shen Hui for your sister.”
"Is it really necessary?" After listening to her exaggerated description and glancing at her a few more times, Shen Fenghe still said, "It's a pity that Shen Hui and I are biological sisters."
"I know, it's just a feeling of fate," Kong Xiaoxiao said.
Shen Fenghe stubbed out her cigarette and wiped away the smoke with her hand. "I do have a younger sister."
Kong Xiaoxiao: "..."
Shen Fenghe said expressionlessly, "It's a pity he died."
Kong Xiaoxiao: "..."
The car started and sped away.
Gu Yixue, who remained where she was, looked at the red light on the back of the car and then said to Liang Shi, "Let's go home."
Liang Shi looked at her, then at the car speeding away.
I think I understand something.
Gu Yixue then said, "By the way, don't even think about kidnapping people, it's easy to get into trouble."
Liang Shi: "?"
Chapter 150
Liang Shixian didn't react at first, and just blankly replied with an "oh".
When Gu Yixue's designated driver arrived, he turned and left. Only after Gu Yixue's car disappeared into the traffic did she realize what had happened.
Belatedly, he covered his face with both hands.
Ahhh!
How much did Gu Yixue actually hear?!
Liang Shi felt like he was being roasted over a fire until the designated driver arrived and politely asked, "Hello, did you place this order?"
Liang Shi then lowered his hands, only to be met with the surprised question from the designated driver: "Do you have a fever? Should we take you to the hospital?"
Liang Shi: "..."
She coughed softly, feigning seriousness: "Ah, no."
After saying that, he handed the car keys to the designated driver and got into the back seat of the car as if he were escaping.
It was a few degrees warmer inside the car than outside, and Liang Shi was still feeling the residual heat.
She didn't drink much; she only drank a few cups with Gu Yixue because she saw her drinking alone, but she was far from getting drunk.
But right now I feel inexplicably dizzy.
The driver hesitated after getting into the car, asking, "Are you sure you don't need to go to the hospital?"
Liang Shi declined, saying, "No need."
After saying that, he took out his phone and sent a message to Xu Qingzhu: 【Someone overheard us just now.】
She knew Xu Qingzhu was sleeping, so she only provided information from one side.
Our director was also in the stairwell at the time!
[She told me just now that it's best not to tie people up, it could cause trouble.]
Honey, I'm so embarrassed.
How am I supposed to face anyone tomorrow?!
Liang Shi was still typing when Xu Qingzhu's message suddenly popped up: [Wife, isn't she supposed to start filming the day after tomorrow? She has something to do tomorrow.]
Liang Shi: "..."
She suddenly realized what she was doing, so she quickly tried to undo it, but Xu Qingzhu sent her a screenshot.
Xu Qingzhu: [I took a screenshot.]
Liang Shi: [...Give them a little face.]
Xu Qingzhu: [It's legal, so what?]
Liang Shi: [...]
After a moment, Liang Shi changed the subject: "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
Xu Qingzhu sent a voice message, her voice slightly hoarse and soft, "I was asleep, but my phone was on vibrate. I woke up when you messaged me. Aren't you home yet?"
Liang Shi felt as if something had suddenly struck her heart. She leaned her head against the car window, her slender fingers poking at the screen: "Why aren't you in Do Not Disturb mode? I always have it on when I sleep at home."
"I opened it but couldn't get any messages from you." Xu Qingzhu was still not fully awake, and her voice was soft.
Even through the screen, Liang Shi could imagine her lying in bed, sending messages with her eyes slightly closed.
It makes you want to rub its head.
Liang Shi, mindful of the people in the front row, kept typing to her: "I can check my messages when I wake up; sleeping is more important."
Xu Qingzhu: "Actually, I wasn't that sleepy."
After a while, Xu Qingzhu sent another message: "I was a little bored while waiting for you."
Liang Shi: [...]
I clearly saw dark circles under my eyes when I was video chatting just now; it's obvious I stayed up too late and was drowsy.
Liang Shi didn't expose her lie. "Then you can sleep a little longer. I'll call you when I get back."
Xu Qingzhu: [Okay.]
After a while, Xu Qingzhu sent another seven-second voice message, which Liang Shi opened.
In her clear, husky voice, she asked in a bewildered whisper, "How did Director Gu know that kidnapping is wrong? Has she tried it herself?"
Liang Shi: "..."
One has to admire Xu Qingzhu's peculiar logic.
Even when I was drowsy, I still remembered these little details.
"And another thing," Xu Qingzhu sent another voice message, "What was Director Gu doing in the stairwell while we were on the phone? He was eavesdropping."
Liang Shi: "..."
Liang Shi paused for a moment before replying, "Maybe he's on a date with the mysterious older sister."
//
The situation was a bit awkward at the beginning.
Especially when it has just been exposed.
Afterwards, I went home and chatted with Xu Qingzhu for a while, and then I didn't feel anything was wrong.
I mainly forgot.
Xu Qingzhu provoked her with his words, making her take the tie out of the closet and cut it; the scissors were in the drawer of the coffee table in the living room.
Under her instructions, Liang Shi cut the strip into two pieces of different lengths.
Liang Shi said she was wasting things and squandering resources.
Xu Qingzhu lay on the bed and chuckled softly. She raised one arm over her head, her fair wrist bare, unlike Liang Shi, who occasionally wore small ornaments. Moreover, she was wearing the bracelet that Xu Qingzhu had previously photographed for her.
Even through the camera lens, the veins on her wrists are clearly visible.
The structure is very clear.
Her long hair was spread out like seaweed, her fingers were slightly curled, and her voice was soft with a laugh: "When you tied me up."
The black tie that Liang Shi was playing with in his hand suddenly became a little hot.
Even so, Liang Shi still said coldly, "Nonsense."
I just feel a little unsure.
"Then don't you like it?" Xu Qingzhu asked.
Liang Shi: "..."
