Chapter – 69
Fang Xinhua saw that her second baby looked at the message and was no longer sad. Instead, she looked quite angry. She thought to herself, could it be that Bai Wenxi acted so quickly? Did she already clarify things to Lin Qingyi? Did Lin Qingyi immediately start comforting Er Bao? If that was the case, she could barely forgive her.
Lin Qingyi’s message was like a hook buried deep in Qin Shiyue’s heart. She could not pull it out, and she could not ignore it.
After returning to her hotel, Qin Shiyue finally could not hold back.
“You just said you didn’t know me and weren’t familiar with me. So why are you asking me to come over now? I’m not going.”
Qin Shiyue purposely sent a voice message instead of typing. She felt words could not fully show how angry she was. Even if Lin Qingyi wanted her to go over, she should at least use a better attitude. That commanding tone was annoying.
But after sending the message, she realized only five minutes had passed since she received Lin Qingyi’s message. She felt she had replied too quickly, as if she cared too much. Even if she withdrew the message now, it would still leave a withdrawal notice. So there was no point.
What made Qin Shiyue even angrier was that she had already replied, yet that woman did not reply instantly. One minute passed. Two minutes passed…
There was no response. She was being ignored.
So annoying! If I talk to Lin Qingyi again, I’m a puppy! Qin Shiyue thought angrily.
Actually, it was not Lin Qingyi’s fault. At that moment, the doorbell rang, and she went to open the door.
“I have something important to report,” Bai Wenxi said immediately after Lin Qingyi opened the door.
Lin Qingyi looked at Bai Wenxi and had no intention of letting her in. She gave her three minutes. Keep it short. She was not in the mood for other matters.
“This afternoon, the reason President Xiao Qin appeared with her ex-wife was because Song Chengmu was feeling unwell, so she finished work early. She came to our filming set mainly to visit you. Meeting Kong Huizhi at the entrance was just a coincidence.”
Bai Wenxi said everything in one breath.
Not skipping work on purpose for Kong Huizhi? Just a coincidence?
At that moment, the frozen lake in Lin Qingyi’s heart began to crack. The ice sank to the bottom, and ripples spread across the water. It was as if winter suddenly turned into spring.
“Did you specially ask Fang Xinhua?” Lin Qingyi asked calmly. Her heart had melted, but her face showed nothing.
This was hard to answer. Would her boss think she was being nosy?
Although Bai Wenxi had indeed been meddling a lot lately, seeing that her boss’s mood had improved, she decided it was fine.
“Alright, I understand,” Lin Qingyi said lightly and did not make things difficult for her.
Bai Wenxi finally relaxed. It was not scary if you could not guess the boss’s thoughts. What was scary was when the boss said one thing but meant another.
“Oh right, do you still want to drink the lemon water President Xiao Qin gave you?” Bai Wenxi did not forget to deal with the lemon water she brought back in the afternoon.
“Alright.” Lin Qingyi sounded a little reluctant.
Bai Wenxi quickly returned to her room and took the lemon water from the small fridge, then handed it to Lin Qingyi.
After Lin Qingyi took the lemon water, she closed the door. She had planned to insert the straw and drink it, but after thinking for a moment, she placed it on the table. She could use it later to coax her little vase.
When Lin Qingyi returned to her room and picked up her phone again, five or six minutes had already passed. She did not know how many times Qin Shiyue had gotten angry in those minutes or how many times she had cursed her in her heart.
Now, when Lin Qingyi looked at Qin Shiyue’s message again, her mood was completely different.
She played Qin Shiyue’s voice message on speaker. Hearing that angry voice, she could not help but smile.
She thought, if the little vase really did not want to come, she probably would not have replied at all. If she replied, and even in an angry tone, it meant she wanted to be coaxed. Since the little vase was not that disappointing, she would coax her later.
“Bai Wenxi came to see me just now. I didn’t have my phone with me,” Lin Qingyi explained why she had not replied in time.
Qin Shiyue said that if she responded again she would be a puppy, but the moment she received the message, she could not wait to read it. After seeing Lin Qingyi’s explanation, her anger lessened a little.
“Why do you want me to come over?” Qin Shiyue asked sharply, showing she was still upset about Lin Qingyi suddenly turning cold earlier.
“You’ll know when you come.”
Lin Qingyi only wanted her to come. What they would do did not seem important. Curiosity could kill a cat.
“If you don’t say it, I’m not going,” Qin Shiyue said firmly.
“Really not coming? Aren’t you curious?” Lin Qingyi sent a voice message. Her voice sounded charming and seductive, deliberately teasing her.
“I’m not going!” Qin Shiyue insisted. But she thought, you were so cold just now, and now your voice suddenly sounds so flirtatious—what are you doing?
“I’m going to take a shower first. I’ll wait for you.”
Lin Qingyi did not mind Qin Shiyue’s refusal. She believed the little vase would come. She would take a shower and wait for her, smelling nice.
Qin Shiyue struggled in her hotel room for twenty minutes. In the end, she could not suppress her curiosity. She wanted to know why Lin Qingyi called her over, and she also wanted to know why Lin Qingyi suddenly changed her attitude earlier. If she did not know the reason, it would always bother her.
In the end, Qin Shiyue accepted her fate and left her hotel. She did not tell Fang Xinhua. It would be embarrassing if Sister Fang knew she went to see Lin Qingyi again. So she went alone to Lin Qingyi’s hotel.
When Qin Shiyue arrived, Lin Qingyi had just finished showering.
Lin Qingyi’s pajamas tonight were a little sexy.
