Chapter 49: Chapter 49

Yu Xia opened her eyes wide, wanting to push him away.

But Xie Qingci’s strength was inexplicably strong, she couldn’t push him away at all. His hand pressing on the back of her head even pushed her hair onto her cheek, tickling her.

She breathed anxiously, their hot breaths burning each other.

This posture was really not suitable for kissing. Her neck was craned and her body twisted, feeling very uncomfortable, unable to speak, she could only hum a sound.

Xie Qingci soothingly stroked the back of her head, then pushed the chair away with the other hand, directly gripping her waist to lift her up.

Yu Xia let out a startled gasp, which got stuck in her throat, and her legs instinctively wrapped around his waist.

"I’ve closed the door, if anyone comes in, there will be a sound, and they can’t see here. I’ve finished filming, others will take a while, they won’t return now. This place is used by some as a temporary changing room, there won’t be any surveillance."

His words were fast, his voice low and soft, with his lips close to her ear as he began and ended his sentences.

She felt electrified all over listening to his words.

Before she could come to her senses to scold him, he turned her towards the wall, pressing her and kissing her again.

This time, he tilted his head upwards, and his target wasn’t her lips anymore but buried his head in her neck, nibbling at her earlobe and neck.

It was scorching, she trembled slightly.

The words "Damn, you even chose the perfect time" were swallowed back, replaced by a gritted response:

Xie Qingci’s lips were pressed against her skin, breathing as he responded: "Yes. Your dog."

"......" Damn, she couldn’t handle it.

But at times , in this place, she had to hold it together.

She pushed at his head with both hands, glanced outside the clothing rack, and lowered her voice to curse him:

"Why are you being crazy?! Look at what you’re doing right now, do you know where this is?!"

He got pushed away but pressed her back against the wall, looking at her with deep, dark eyes. Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on novel_fіre.net

"If not in this place, then where would I be? On the show? In the studio? Or in that unseen corner of the base?"

Yu Xia was speechless, knowing that yesterday’s incident where he saw her and Song Xi coming out of a corner wasn’t over.

She was about to say something, but he turned to look at the untouched cup of coffee on the makeup table.

Then he extended his hand to push it over. The coffee spilled directly into the small trash can below.

"..." She was speechless again, "That was kindly provided by the brand and I hadn’t even drunk it."

"You still want to drink?" His tone was biting cold.

He turned back, placing both hands on her waist, their bodies tightly pressed together.

Yu Xia finally sensed something wasn’t right.

Was their relationship such that they could kiss and embrace?!

"Let go! I think you’re out of your mind, coming in to harass a female senior!"

"Senior?" He repeated the word.

"What else? Let go! If anyone finds out, you might as well pack your bags and go home!"

Xie Qingci refused, even pressing in further, seeing her struggle uncomfortably, he freed a hand to hold her thigh.

"If that’s the case, shouldn’t you be slapping me? After all, I barged in here and kissed you and even licked your ears and neck..."

"Shut up!" She quickly covered his mouth, furious.

Seeing the lipstick smudged on his lips, she got even angrier.

"I think you’ve lost it!"

"I lost it a long time ago," he closed in, brown pupils reflecting her face, "since you had your fun and then tossed me aside!"

"... Speak properly!" What was with the talk of fun and games.

She instinctively turned her head to avoid his sharp gaze, breathing erratically as she lowered her eyes.

Xie Qingci watched her, swallowed, then buried his head in her neck, whispering, "I won’t dwell on the past, can we reconcile now?"

Yu Xia slapped his arm.

"Are you out of your mind... what are you doing?!"

Xie Qingci simply used his teeth to pull open her collar, lightly biting her collarbone.

The skin there was tender, she really felt at any moment he might bite through and her voice got stuck.

Xie Qingci felt her slight tremble, unwilling to let her go while simultaneously begging for her forgiveness.

"It’s okay if you disagree, someday you will agree."

"I’m sorry, I really offended you."

"But I can’t help myself, why did you go to help Song Xi? Do you like him now?"

"Why did you accept that person’s coffee? You two have had rumors, were you involved with him?"

"After having me, can you still look at others? Can anyone be better than me?"

"Sorry, I’ve smudged your lipstick on your lingerie."

Yu Xia’s breathing became increasingly unstable, hearing the final sentence, she nearly wanted to slap him dead.

He refused, raised his head again, blowing air beside her ears, stubbornly yet sneakily making his demands:

"Keep Song Xi and that manager away from you, if you want coffee, I’ll buy it for you."

Is this really about coffee?!

"What’s our relationship, do you have the right to interfere with me?"

Xie Qingci: "I don’t interfere with you, I meddle with them."

"As for the relationship, it’s one where you will eventually wake up every day only seeing me."

Yu Xia’s ears were burning, she gritted her teeth and pinched his arm: "Go away after you finish your madness!"

The trainee’s shooting was still ongoing, and someone else came in to get stuff.

Yu Xia was touching up her lipstick in front of the mirror, then started chatting with the stylist who came in holding a bunch of clothes.

"Is President Gao still busy?"

"The bunch of youngsters out there are still shooting, it’s stalled, everyone is there, why don’t you go out and find him?"

"Alright." She politely thanked him, putting on a bored expression as she walked out.

The shooting outside did stall, a few juniors were newcomers, lacking experience, either trying too hard in front of the camera or their actions were stiff and their lines not smooth, the photographer was getting impatient.

President Gao was watching, getting irritated as well, so he went to the side to speak with her.

After the talk, Yu Xia didn’t linger, waving goodbye to the group of juniors and left by car.

Returning home, Yu Xia directly went to the bathroom.

Pulled off her clothes.

Sure enough, her collarbone was red all over, and there was a smudge of her lipstick on her light-colored lingerie.

She leaned her hands on the bathroom sink, closed her eyes for a moment, and looked at herself in the mirror.

Biting her lips, her watery eyes, long hair cascading down her shoulders, with a strand slipping into the cleavage.

In a daze, she seemed to see another self in the mirror.

Her shoulder partly exposed, with a satisfied expression, lazily turning back to kiss the man behind her full of scratches.

She cupped cold water and splashed it on her neck, shivering as her body trembled.

Then she went through her usual routine, removing makeup, washing up, skincare, followed a video to review the dance she learned two days ago, forcibly calming down.
