Chapter 309: Chapter 309 - 305: This Man’s Jealousy Is Terrifying

Shi Su answered intermittently, "I didn’t... didn’t agree to him..."

She really couldn’t handle the man’s assertiveness at that moment, so like a little hedgehog, she tried to curl up in his arms, hoping he would be a bit gentler, "And... I also said... I have a boyfriend..."

After saying this, she thought he might soften up a little, but instead, she was met with another wild wave of passion.

With a crying tone, she promised to keep an even more distant and cold relationship with male actors in the group in the future. Although she felt she had always maintained a proper distance with them, it was clearly not enough.

She thought Jing Jihan was such a broad-minded and considerate man, but he could actually be so domineeringly jealous over such a trivial matter.

And it’s just so...

Overwhelming.

...

It was until the middle of the night that Mianmian finally woke up. Since it was midnight, even though the little girl had slept well, her biological clock still affected her, and she sat on the bed in a daze, as if she could fall back asleep at any moment.

Shi Su was in no condition to leave the bathroom to soothe the child. Jing Jihan put on a robe and went out to hear Mianmian saying she was thirsty, so he poured her some water to drink.

Mianmian sat on the bed and asked absentmindedly, "Where’s Mommy?"

"In the shower." Jing Jihan sat beside the bed, patting her little head, "Do you still want to sleep?"

"I do, but I also want Mommy." Mianmian pouted and snuggled into his arms, "When will Mommy be done showering?"

"If you want to sleep, go ahead and sleep a little longer. I’ll wake you up later for something to eat." Jing Jihan coaxed her softly, "Weren’t you too excited to eat dinner after arriving in H City? I’ll have someone bring us some supper, and then you can get up to eat, okay?"

"Okay, will Mommy eat with us too?"

"Together."

"Alright!"

Mianmian was indeed still sleepy and quickly fell back asleep in his arms with her eyes closed.

After a few minutes, the little girl’s breathing became even once more, and she was soon back in slumber.

Jing Jihan stood up, laid Mianmian back in the bed, covered her with a blanket, stroked aside the soft, fuzzy strands at her hairline, and only when he saw she was deeply asleep did he return to the bathroom.

Shi Su was lying weakly in a tub full of warm water, her whole body even her legs trembling, taking a rare break now that Mianmian had woken up so she could finally catch a breath.

She was enjoying herself with her eyes closed when suddenly she heard the bathroom door open again, and the man’s voice sounded above her, "How’s the water temperature?"

"It’s fine, very comfortable." Shi Su, thinking everything was over, let her guard down against the man who returned to the bathroom, leaning quietly in the bathtub and responded softly.

With a splash, before Shi Su could react, she was suddenly pulled out of the water by the man.

Startled as she opened her eyes, she had no chance to react before she was lifted against the bathroom wall, pressed against the ceramic tiles.

She only managed a startled shout, "Jing Jihan, you... hmm!"

Her lips were sealed shut.

...

Too terrifying.

A man jealous is too terrifying.

Saying it’s bribing the sponsor, but this bribery is way too intense.

Later, when Shi Su returned to soak in the tub, she was shivering, not only from the encounter but also because she hadn’t eaten much on set before returning to the hotel that evening and was feeling a bit hungry now.

She was hiding in the bathroom, reluctant to come out, when she vaguely heard the doorbell ring outside but lazily kept her eyes closed and ignored it, leaving Jing Jihan to answer the door.

Not long after, she was once again lifted out of the water by the man, who this time helped dry her off and wrap her in a bathrobe.

It’s not that Shi Su was being overly coquettish; she was genuinely... exhausted to the point of feeling boneless, half-closing her eyes and leaning in his embrace, murmuring, "Jing Jihan, you’re not allowed to touch me for at least a month..."

The man chuckled from his chest as he carried her out of the bathroom, clearly indicating that such a promise was impossible.

Shi Su then started to wonder if she had any out-of-town trips planned soon; she needed to keep some distance from Jing Jihan.

She couldn’t even imagine what kind of life she’d lead once she actually moved to the thirty-second floor...

Oh, heavens.

The thought alone made her scalp tingle, her whole body ache, and her legs tremble.

Shi Su didn’t know when Jing Jihan had ordered supper from the hotel, but once she was carried out and seated by the table by the man, she gained a little bit of energy at the sight of several easily digestible dishes that she liked.

Mianmian was awakened to eat, and she ran over to Shi Su’s side, clinging to her leg, "Mommy, Mommy!"

Shi Su instinctively wanted to pick Mianmian up and sit her in her lap, but Jing Jihan, knowing she was out of strength, reached over to help lift Mianmian onto the chair closest to her.

"Mommy, you took such a long bath." Mianmian said, seeing Shi Su in her bathrobe, reaching for a small spoon while remembering Shi Su’s bath earlier.

Shi Su: "..."

"Ahem, eat something." Shi Su quickly picked up a small piece of tofu for Mianmian, "It’s really late now, eat something soft and easy to digest to avoid stomach discomfort when you go back to sleep later."

Mianmian was truly hungry, and sat beside Shi Su obediently eating. After a few bites, she looked up and asked, "Uncle Ji Han, can we stay here with Mommy all the time?"

"Aren’t you going to kindergarten tomorrow morning?" Jing Jihan picked up two pieces of fish, carefully removing the bones before placing them on the plates in front of them, "I’ll take you back when it gets light, and your mom will return to Jiang City tomorrow afternoon. First, you need to go back obediently and attend kindergarten."

"Oh." Mianmian picked up the fish Uncle Ji Han had deboned for her and put it in her mouth, puffing her cheeks as she said, "Oh right, the day after tomorrow is the first of January, and Mommy said she’s preparing a gift for Uncle Ji Han tomorrow night!"

"Cough... cough, cough..." Shi Su had just taken a sip of fish soup and was suddenly choked, turning her eyes to glare at Shi Mianmian.

Shi Mianmian blinked innocently at her, "Mommy’s been preparing for a long time! Wasn’t I supposed to say?"

"It’s not that you can’t say it, just not right now!" Shi Su glared at her, giving her a look that said to change the topic.

"Oh, but Mommy really has been preparing for a long time." Mianmian muttered quietly, then stopped talking about it, turning her gaze back to Jing Jihan.

Jing Jihan, who was periodically deboning the fish for them, seemingly also picked up on Shi Su’s unwillingness to say more, and discreetly continued eating with them as if he hadn’t heard anything.

After the meal, Shi Su called Mianmian to bathe and brush her teeth. The little one, freshly washed and fragrant, obediently crawled back to the middle of the bed intending to sleep, calling out, "Mommy, sleep with me~"
