Rival In Business - Chapter 56
“What’s so sour?” Lin Yi, who was in a fit of anger, didn’t realize it for a moment, she lowered her head and sniffed: “Isn’t the perfume I sprayed today the same as yours? Where—”
The words got stuck here: “…What are you talking about!?”
There were people coming and going in the backstage, the two of them stood in the corridor to catch people’s eyes, and many staff took out their mobile phones to shoot them, Zhou Shichen pulled her aside, and said with a smile: “What did you say?” Don’t know?”
“I’m not here…” Lin Yi hurriedly argued, and then lowered his voice as if remembering something, “I’m not jealous!”
Zhou Shichen nodded and followed her: “Okay, you are not jealous.”
Lin Yi also nodded: “It’s good that you know!”
“Then I’m going to find Yanyan now, do you want to go with me?” Zhou Shichen brushed her long hair back and shook the pearl hairpin pinned to her hair: “If you don’t want to see her, you can go back to the scene first. Isn’t Shen Yujia coming out soon?”
“…” Lin Yi’s footsteps moved, she wanted to leave but was unwilling, and whispered: “I said she was talking to someone else, why don’t you disturb them when you go in?”
“What are you bothering me? Let her introduce me to another friend.” Zhou Shichen didn’t care. “I haven’t seen Yanyan for more than half a month. I miss her. I can’t wait until the end.”
“You miss her?” Lin Yi raised her voice.
Zhou Shichen nodded frankly: “I want to. Don’t you want to?”
Lin Yi immediately said: “Of course I don’t want to!”
Zhou Shichen snorted: “Then you go back first. I’ll come as soon as I talk to her.”
Lin Yi: “I—”
“Okay.” Seeing that she wouldn’t leave, Zhou Shichen helped her turn her body in another direction: “Good boy. You don’t want to see Yanyan and I won’t force you. You can’t stop me from seeing her, can you?”
It makes sense.
Lin Yi took two steps forward, her high-heeled shoes thumped on the marble floor, she defended in a low voice: “I didn’t stop you from seeing her, I just, just…”
After a long time, there was no reason, but Zhou Shichen had already gone to Xu Shuyan’s lounge.
Lin Yi: “…”
She clenched her hand slightly by her side, and the ring on her long finger with well-defined knuckles gleamed faintly. Complex emotions surged in her heart, grievance and anger coexisted, mixed together, and she tasted all kinds of tastes at this moment.
She thinks that Xu Shuyan is really disgusting. After going to LA for half a month, she obviously attended the same event with them, but she didn’t say it beforehand. She was surprised by singing a song like that on the stage, and ran over after stepping off the stage. , but saw such a scene.
Yes, such a scene is too normal.
It’s just that Xu Shuyan is talking to others, there’s nothing wrong with smiling, but do you need to smile so brightly?
She was just upset, upset that Xu Shuyan smiled so happily, upset that she rushed here excitedly and was poured with a basin of cold water, upset that Xu Shuyan could disturb her heart recklessly without saying anything.
“Ms. Lin?” A passing staff member stopped and asked her with concern, “Do you need any help?”
Lin Yi came back to his senses, shook his head, and asked, “Where is the scene going?”
The staff said: “The contestants are divided into two groups AB to perform, and now group B has just started.” She smiled again: “I know you are here for Teacher Shen Yujia Shen, if you are tired, why don’t you go to the lounge first Rest, I will call you before Teacher Shen comes on stage?”
Lin Yi shook his head: “No need.”
She lifted her skirt and stepped aside: “I’m going back to the scene now.”
The staff member said, “Okay, then I’ll take you there.”
Lin Yi nodded distractedly. She was in such a distracted state that she really couldn’t get back on her own. After walking behind the staff for a while, he stopped again.
Staff: “Teacher Lin?”
Lin Yi closed her eyes and said, “It suddenly occurred to me that I need to find Shichen for something, so I have to go back. Do your work first, and leave me alone.”
After the staff left, she hesitated for two seconds, and instead of going to the scene or looking for Zhou Shichen, she walked into the lounge arranged by the organizer.
She is messed up now.
There is no way to face the camera, and no way to meet Xu Shuyan.
The room in the lounge is small, and the heating is more sufficient. Slowly climb up her exposed cold skin, warming up slowly, she took off her high-heeled shoes and placed them next to the sofa, staring at the dark night outside the window in a daze.
City B has officially entered winter, the night is dark and cold, the glass is covered with a thin layer of frost, and even the night is somewhat blurred.
It’s like her heart that she can’t even figure out.
There were 800 posts on the forum guessing what would happen when she went to the backstage to find Xu Shuyan, and directly defined the two as a young couple who had been in a long distance relationship. Red rope with a dead knot.
Lin Yi thought of the kiss in the snow in the dream.
It was obviously something that never happened, but the collision between the lips was so real.
Later, she thought, it should be the remaining physical memory of Chen Yuan’s wedding night. Xu Shuyan must have kissed her like this, pressing her on the bed, body to body, lips to lips, and the tip of her tongue touching the tip of her tongue. Snow is much more restrictive.
…She has not been officially kissed by Xu Shuyan when she is fully awake.
Thinking of this, Lin Yi shook her head violently, the scene she saw in the lounge was swaying in front of her eyes, she thought bitterly, kiss her ass, Xu Shuyan wants to kiss her, but she won’t let her!
There is also a TV in the lounge, which is broadcasting the program silently. Lin Yi turned up the volume, and heard the host announce: “There are kickers! Shen Yujia!”
Is Shen Yujia going to play? !
While staring at the TV, Lin Yi reached for the high-heeled shoes next to the sofa. As soon as she touched the side, she heard the knock on the door of the lounge. A beat.
thump.
Plop plop.
Lin Yi licked her lips nervously, thinking that it should be Zhou Shichen, after meeting Xu Shuyan after talking with Xu Shuyan, she remembered that she was here, right? You want to ask her to go to the scene together, right? But-
But this lounge also belongs to Zhou Shichen, will she knock on the door?
People outside are still knocking on the door.
Like Xu Shuyan Fei LA’s doorbell that morning, waiting patiently and attentively for her to open the door, as if she was sure that she would come sooner or later.
Lin Yi has thought about it, she hates the feeling of being guessed by others, she wants to regain control, but there is a small voice in her heart urging her: Go and open the door, do you know who is knocking on the door? , People come and go outside, everyone’s eyes will fall on the person knocking on the door, or suspicion or gossip, how embarrassing. Just open the door and…
The little voice said again, “Don’t you miss her?”
By the time Lin Yi realized it, she had already called out, please come in, the outside was quiet for two seconds, the doorknob was turned, and the moment the door was opened, she heard Shen Yujia’s self-introduction. It seemed abrupt on the court, but it reflected the atmosphere in the lounge at the moment.
It was suffocatingly quiet, only the deafening heartbeat could be heard.
Xu Shuyan was still wearing the same outfit as before, white shirt and plaid skirt, and her makeup was sweet and Japanese, like a schoolgirl stepping on the sun to see the cherry blossoms on campus in spring. She turned sideways and closed the door, stretched out her hand and snapped her fingers in the air: “What are you thinking?”
Lin Yi blinked and said nothing.
“Shichen said that you came to find me.” Xu Shuyan walked over hesitantly, her long legs were fair under the sharp folds of her skirt: “Then why did you leave without talking to me? Do I sing well? Compared to the previous concert Has there been any progress?”
Lin Yi still didn’t speak, but her gaze followed the buttons of the white shirt and landed on Xu Shuyan’s face.
thinner.
Lin Yi thought, she was too far away and too hasty just now, she didn’t look carefully, but now that she was close and had enough time, she realized that Xu Shuyan was thinner, her waist was more slender, unbearable to hold, and her face was small. The baby fat has faded, and the lines of the side face are more distinct, and it looks clear when he smiles at her.
“Why don’t you talk?” Xu Shuyan walked up to her and squatted down, glanced to the side: “Do you want to wear shoes?”
Lin Yi opened his mouth: “I—”
After uttering one syllable, she was startled by Xu Shuyan’s actions and swallowed the rest of the words—Xu Shuyan naturally held her feet and carefully put them into the high-heeled shoes. Xingguang: “Put on my glass slipper, can you go home with me?”
Lin Yi’s rationality gradually came back, and when she heard Xu Shuyan’s words, she blushed, pulled her foot out lightly, and replied awkwardly to Xu Shuyan: “It’s the prince who wears the glass slipper for Cinderella, okay?”
“What year is it?” Xu Shuyan pulled the corner of his mouth: “It’s not the princess’s turn to dress Cinderella yet?”
“When did you say it’s not my turn? I mean the original work—” Lin Yi reacted and glared at Xu Shuyan: “You’re a princess and I’m Cinderella, right?!”
“It’s fine if you’re a princess and I’m Cinderella.” Xu Shuyan sat next to her, resting her chin, and thought seriously: “You should be Sleeping Beauty. Chance sneaked into the palace, and in the middle of the ball, I sneaked out.”
“…What about writing novels here?” Lin Yi was annoyed.
“Listen to me.” Xu Shuyan patted the back of her hand lightly, causing her heart to beat wildly again, before continuing: “Oh, because I want to come to you, I swore to defend the crystal slipper to the death. That cannon fodder prince doesn’t need to look for me anymore. I just sneaked to your bed.”
Xu Shuyan paused and stopped talking.
Lin Yi listened vigorously and gave her a push: “And then?”
Xu Shuyan grabbed her hand and asked her back with a smile, “What do you say next?”
Lin Yi’s face was still red, and she was about to pull out her hand, but Xu Shuyan exerted all her strength, but she couldn’t move it, and said angrily, “How would I know then? I won’t tamper with other people’s stories! If I Author, I have to sue you for copyright infringement!”
“The copyright period has passed.” Xu Shuyan said helplessly: “Is this the point?”
Lin Yi talked about him: “Why not?! This shows that I have copyright awareness and respect the original work. If you make random changes like you, you will be called OOC!”
“Then I kissed you.” Xu Shuyan said.
“…”
On the TV that was still broadcasting live, Shen Yujia’s song had already come to an end, and there was the sound of rain dripping in the lingering sound, and Lin Yi’s heartbeat, which became more and more hurried and flustered.
Xu Shuyan is so serious.
She just stared at her like this, her bright eyes were like a vast universe, and she was the only one, focused and affectionate. She was going to be unable to hold on any longer, the hand grasped by Xu Shuyan moved inadvertently, like a feather sweeping, giving Xu Shuyan a signal, Xu Shuyan approached tentatively.
As it got closer, the breath became hotter and hotter.
Another centimeter, anyone who goes one centimeter forward, and the lips will touch together.
Like the chaotic night on the bed, like in her dream on the snow, followed by a long, warm or lustful kiss, which is also in line with all the results guessed by the forum for their meeting this time.
Just get a centimeter closer.
“Welcome! Welcome Shen Yujia!”
The host’s voice suddenly sounded, breaking the silence, and also made Lin Yi wake up suddenly. She quickly leaned back, trying to escape the ambiguity of this moment, but after seeing the flash of injury in Xu Shuyan’s eyes, she My heart softens.
So pitiful.
Xu Shuyan like this showed her fragility and softness, and also handed her his weaknesses and emotions, she couldn’t bear it. After hesitating for a while, she raised her other hand and put it in front of Xu Shuyan’s lips.
Xu Shuyan lowered her eyes, her thick eyelashes revealed her emotions, she was nervous, she was not as calm as she looked.
Lin Yi suppressed her heartbeat and tried her best to make her voice sound stable, but people could still hear a trill: “I…Xu, Xu Shuyan, I haven’t made up my mind yet.”
“I…” She pursed her lips, and then said firmly, “Give me a little more time, okay? I’m so messed up, I want to think more clearly.”
Xu Shuyan raised his eyes slowly.
There was water in her clear eyes, she looked at Lin Yi pitifully, after a while, she suddenly smiled, tears fell down: “My Sleeping Beauty is still unwilling to wake up, it’s okay.”
Lin Yi panicked: “You, don’t cry!”
Xu Shuyan sniffled: “Did I cry?” She wiped away her tears: “I didn’t cry.”
“You’re talking nonsense with your eyes open, aren’t you?” Lin Yi couldn’t see Xu Shuyan’s stubborn mouth, and touched the corner of her eyes to find evidence: “You don’t look like tears? Don’t cry, I tell you, give me some time, I’ll think about it, I don’t want to start out like this, I-“
The wrist was grabbed by Xu Shuyan, and it went upwards, the palm of the palm was close to hers, and it was stuck to the face.
Lin Yi: “!!”
She was anxious: “What are you doing!”
Xu Shuyan curled his lips: “I won’t cry if you do this.”
Lin Yi: “…”
Ahhh, Xu Shuyan is so annoying!
Looking at the TV again, Shen Yujia has already sat on the contestant’s bench, and she is here to talk about love with Xu Shuyan… Bah, bah, bah! What love talk! No! She meant that she actually broke up with Xu Shuyan here and missed Shen Yujia’s scene!
Feeling angry at this thought, Lin Yi pulled back his hand, wondering if it would be too late to sneak back, but then heard Xu Shuyan ask: “You just asked me, why didn’t you come in?”
It’s good that Xu Shuyan didn’t mention it, but when Lin Yi mentioned it, she remembered again, she ground her teeth: “Because I don’t want to disturb you.”
Xu Shuyan was stunned for a moment: “What are you bothering?”
Lin Yi thought that he was still pretending, and his tone became more and more eccentric: “Excuse me for exchanging feelings with international friends. Wow! I have seen it, our high-cold rapper from Thenotes smiled like a flower, and he collapsed when he said it Let’s set up the characters!”
“What international friends? Why are you smiling like a flower?” Xu Shuyan was confused, and belatedly said, “You mean Sarah?”
Sarah?
Lin Yi said: “I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t understand.”
Xu Shuyan said: “She is the director of my MV for this time, and she has always wanted to come to China to play. This trip just happened to catch up, so she came back with me.”
She tugged Lin Yi’s arm: “I have nothing to do with her!”
“Don’t pull me!” Lin Yi shook off her hand, and said solemnly: “It doesn’t matter what you have with her! I am not yours, what are you explaining to me here? Others will misunderstand of!”
Xu Shuyan laughed, and continued to tease Lin Yi relentlessly: “I will explain to anyone who is jealous.”
“You, you, don’t talk nonsense!” Lin Yi stammered, and glared at her sternly: “I can sue you for defamation and rumors! I have my own studio now, and I will send you a lawyer’s letter!”
Xu Shuyan nodded slowly: “It’s okay, the first lawyer’s letter issued by Kai Studio was sent to me, it’s a great honor.”
Lin Yi: “…Get lost!”
She hummed: “Then our cp is dead?”
Xu Shuyan was puzzled: “Is this also smoking?”
You don’t understand Lin Yi’s expression: “BE is popular now, the more BE, the more real, the more BE, the more superior. If we tear our face like this, it will be better.”
“Why is it easy to drink?” Xu Shuyan asked shamelessly.
“It’s not decent to be like this, must have loved?” Lin Yi said.
“Yes, I have loved.” Xu Shuyan continued.
“…” Lin Yi glanced at her angrily: “Ever loved?”
Xu Shuyan said seriously: “I love you.”
Lin Yi: “…”
Xu Shuyan struggled with a new question: “Then the two of us will be unbound and closed for business, won’t they still continue to smoke?”
Lin Yi tapped her forehead lightly: “Stupid or not? This is not a wave of people.”
Xu Shuyan sighed slowly, touched the forehead that Lin Yi touched, and asked, “Then can we have dinner together tonight?”
“…No more.” Lin Yi said, “I have an appointment with Shen Yujia.”
Xu Shuyan muttered in a low voice, it was Shen Yujia again, but Lin Yi didn’t hear clearly, and asked: “What?” She showed a sunny smile again: “It’s nothing. Then I’ll go eat with Shichen.”
Lin Yi asked, “Aren’t you going to the celebration banquet?”
Originally, the finals were over, and the organizer was going to hold a celebration banquet. Even if the guests didn’t want to participate, they had to go through the motions. But with Shen Yujia’s windy personality, she naturally refused when she didn’t want to deal with the occasion, and asked Lin Yi instead. Lin Yi came to the finals to support the scene, so he also refused the celebration banquet by the way.
Xu Shuyan shook his head: “I’m just here to sing a song, I’m not interested in the show.”
— just to sing a song.
Sing a song for her?
Lin Yi blushed, and murmured vaguely: “Go to the scene.” After a pause, he said: “I’ll go first, you can go there in a few minutes.”
Xu Shuyan: “…OK.”
Why do I feel like I’m having an affair?
[What exactly did Lin Yi and Xu Shuyan do? Why don’t you come back? The finals are coming to an end! Wouldn’t it be passionate doi in the lounge…is this appropriate! Please respect the game! It means just do it once, don’t waste too much time! ]
[Zhou Shichen: Where are my teammates? What about my two big teammates? ]
[I’m drooling at the lounge play hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee hee room I made when I said something about the passion code tonight]
[Lin Yi fans at the scene said that Lin Yi is back! No messy hairstyle and no lipstick! She and Xu Shuyan are innocent! No do! No kissing! ]
[Retouched makeup. ]
[What are the benefits of being mad at Wei Fan to you? ]
[Xu Shuyan is back too! A sweet little couple! Actually diverted back! Do you think that I don’t know that you two are in the lounge! ]
[Hehe, I have long seen through the tricks of the young couple…]
[After the show is over, go back and have a good time! ]
CP fans eagerly waited for Reuters ahead, hoping to hear the news that Lin Yi and Xu Shuyan would go to a dinner party or a celebration banquet together after the game, but they did not expect to wait and wait until “I met Zhou Shichen and Xu Shuyan at the barbecue restaurant.” news.
CP powder:? ? ? Did you miss anyone?
Encounter passers-by: only the two of them
CP fan: I don’t believe it! Explore again! Report again!
Twenty minutes later, someone tweeted again: “Oh my god! I actually met Lin Yi at a hot pot restaurant! The one next to her is Shen Yujia who successfully kicked off today?!”
CP fan: …Is this the sadomasochistic love that you love to eat hot pot and I love to eat barbecue, and we have to separate? Woohoo, Xu Shuyan! You used to love Lin Yi so much, you loved it so much that you went to eat Jiugongge with her! now what? Now you have Zhou Shichen, she has Shen Yujia, you all met better people, right?
Lin Yi and Shen Yujia had a very happy chat. They didn’t know that CP fans had emo’d for a round, but when they remembered to look at their phone, they realized that Xu Shuyan had sent her a message within half an hour.
AAA Xu Shuyan: The program team didn’t arrange a place for me to stay, and this hotel has no vacancies, what should I do?
Another ten minutes.
AAA Xu Shuyan: I am in Shichen’s room now, and she said she can take me in.
And then the latest news.
AAA Xu Shuyan: But I want to share a room with you.
Lin Yi replied: There is only one bed in my room
AAA Xu Shuyan: Yes
AAA Xu Shuyan: Shichen’s room only has one bed
Lin Yi: “…”
Xu Shuyan is asking her to choose, whether to watch Xu Shuyan and Zhou Shichen share the same bed, or let go of her last precautions and let Xu Shuyan let her share the bed.
…good and bad.
How come I didn’t realize Xu Shuyan was so listless before?
Lin Yi held her face reddened by the heating, and struggled for a while. When she typed “Come to my room”, she realized that her struggle was useless, and she already had the answer in her heart.
Now she likes a little bit…Xu Shuyan, how could it be possible for Xu Shuyan to sleep with someone else?
Lin Yi’s heart was full of alarm bells. She didn’t like Xu Shuyan that much, and she couldn’t stand Xu Shuyan being like others. What should she do when she likes Xu Shuyan very much?
No, I can’t like Xu Shuyan too much.
Having made up his mind in his heart, Lin Yi nodded solemnly, and then looked at the dialog box, Xu Shuyan sent a new message: “Then when will you come back?”
Lin Yi has no confidence: “I’ll be back when I’m done!”
AAA Xu Shuyan: When was that?
Lin Yi: …soon.
AAA Xu Shuyan: Waiting for you
In the past, she had been in the same dormitory with Xu Shuyan for these years, if Xu Shuyan sent her a message saying that he was waiting for her in the dormitory, he would definitely settle with her. Lin Yi could delay it as long as he could, preferably until Xu Shuyan fell asleep. Get it and go back.
but now-
Lin Yi paused for two seconds, put away her phone, and asked Shen Yujia, “Shall we go back to the hotel now?”
Shen Yujia hummed suspiciously: “Aren’t you going to shop anymore?”
Lin Yi shook his head: “I’m in a hurry.”
Shen Yujia also stood up and asked casually, “What’s the hurry?”
Lin Yi was confused: “It’s just… well, a little urgent.”
It’s not urgent, after all, she doesn’t like Xu Shuyan that much.
But, Lin Yi thought, her future wife is waiting for her on the bed now, she must be allowed to be a little anxious, right?
