Chapter 8: 8

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Yun Xi had never been to a bar before, but she liked to drink.

She couldn’t hold her liquor very well, so after a few drinks, she was slightly tipsy.

When she was drunk, she liked to smile, which was very different from her usual aloof and restrained appearance.

She didn’t know that when she smiled, her eyes would close together, like two crescent moons. They were very beautiful.

Qi Chen ordered a fruit-flavored cocktail for her. It tasted pretty good. Yun Xi took a sip and raised her delicate eyebrows. It was a cute look of satisfaction.

“How have you been?” Qi Chen asked her.

The two of them used to live very near to each other and grew up together. Two years ago, Qi Chen graduated from university and moved to a nearby company. Only then did they grow further and further apart.

Yun Xi smiled. “Pretty good. How about you?”

Qi Chen said, “I heard about what happened at Yun Huai’s school.”

“You can sue him,” Qi Chen said. “Have you forgotten? I’m a lawyer. I’ll help you.”

The music in the bar was very loud. Under the dazzling lights, Qi Chen, who was wearing a white shirt, looked at her. The focus and gentleness in his eyes could almost drown a person.

“But, I don’t want to implicate you,” Yun Xi said. “I know how hard you worked to become a lawyer. If you go against the Jiang family now and lose the lawsuit…”

Qi Chen asked her back, “If you don’t try, how will you know?”

Yun Xi’s face showed a troubled expression.

Qi Chen couldn’t restrain himself and gently stroked her cheek, “Trust me, okay?”

Yun Xi had never seen Qi Chen like this. He had always been distant and calm, never showing the slightest bit of affection or love.

Yun Xi affectionately rubbed against his wide and dry palm.

Qi Chen’s eyes darkened, and he slowly moved closer, as if wanting to kiss her.

Just as Yun Xi’s heart was racing and she couldn’t help but close her eyes, her phone started to vibrate wildly.

“I’m sorry…” Yun Xi seemed to have woken up from a dream. She grabbed her phone and went to the bathroom.

Qi Chen sat where he was. His gaze was deep as he looked at her back. He raised his head and downed the wine in his glass.

It was a call from Ai Zhe.

“Tomorrow morning at seven o’clock, I’ll pick you up at your house,” Ai Zhe said. “The opening ceremony will be held at twelve noon. The producers and investors will be there. At that time, perform well and leave a good impression.”

Yun Xi was silent. She was still thinking about what Qi Chen had just said.

Qi Chen had said that he could file a lawsuit and then she wouldn’t have to pay so much money. Then, did that mean that there was no need for her to film such a scene?

Sensing that she was not in the right mood, Ai Zhe’s voice turned cold. “Where are you now?”

Outside the bathroom was the sound of music from the bar. Yun Xi looked back and covered her mouth with her right hand. “I’m going back soon.”

After thinking for a while, she asked, “Brother Zhe, if I, if I don’t want to take this script…”

“Of course you can.” Ai Zhe’s tone was still calm, but the meaning in his words made them couldn’t help but shiver. “I’ll talk about the penalty fee tomorrow.”

Penalty fee…

“How much is it going to cost?” Yun Xi’s heart was in her throat.

“About 150,000 yuan,” said Ai Zhe. “After all, your original salary isn’t high. The price is about the same.”

Yun Xi:”…”

“Forget I said that.” Yun Xi immediately changed her words. “I’ll wait for you at home tomorrow. Do you need to prepare anything?”

Ai Zhe really acted as if she hadn’t said anything. With a very natural attitude, he chatted with her about the things she needed to pay attention to before and after joining the group.

Yun Xi made a serious note. After about half an hour, she returned to the bar counter.

Qi Chen drank quite a few glasses by himself. His eyes seemed to be misty, moist and clingy. “Who’s calling?”

“It’s my manager.” Yun Xi finished the wine on the table in one gulp. At the same time, she picked up her coat and bag. “It’s getting late. Let’s go back.”

After saying this, she realized that Qi Chen was looking at her with a pitiful expression.

“What’s wrong?” Yun Xi was at a loss.

Qi Chen suddenly pulled her to him, raised her chin, and kissed her lips without hesitation..
