Chapter 784 - The Favored One is Fearless
He gave her a small peck on her lips and went to the washroom. Lin Xiaojuan was blushing so much that it seemed like blood could drip off her face. She escaped into the kitchen in an attempt to engage in some activity that would divert her attention.
She rarely had any experience with kissing, and she could not help but think of the very little intimacy she ever had with Yan Jianming. She felt that this was heaven and hell. She used to despise such intimate actions.
Now that it was another person, she was moved by the behavior.
She found it hard to calm down the entire night.
What Jing Yun? What substitute? She stopped letting those thoughts occupy her mind.
Lin Xiaojuan was in such a good mood that she wanted to sing songs. Tong Hua had bloated himself with all the snacks on the table, but she was in a bad mood previously, so she did not eat much. She made herself two bowls of noodles. Gu Xie only came out when the noodles were ready to be eaten.
Lin Xiaojuan asked, “Why do you take so long in the washroom?”
“… ” Gu Xie stared at her.
The two of them made eye contact, and Lin Xiaojuan suddenly realized the reason he had gone to the toilet for. She looked at his right arm subconsciously. Like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, she ran to the bedroom anxiously. “I’m going to change.”
Damn… Gosh. How embarrassing!!!
When she was cooking the noodles, she was so lost in thought. She was feeling joyful, and she never thought about what Gu Xie could have been doing in the washroom. She had just thrown a casual question out. Gu Xie wouldn’t think that I’m acting pure, would he? Gosh, how embarrassing!
Lin Xiaojuan could not help but slap herself in the face.
Be normal, be normal. Where’s your brain! Come online!
She could not do any more embarrassing things.
She changed into a set of home clothes and removed her makeup along the way. She washed up and appeared at the dining room looking clean. Gu Xie had already brought the steaming hot noodles into the dining hall. He smiled at Lin Xiaojuan, who was still blushing.
Xiaojuan blushed way too easily.
She had been in a fake relationship for five years, hadn’t she?
“Does it taste good?” She was good at cooking. It was trained out of her when she was taking care of Tong Hua’s weak stomach. Tong Hua was often filming, and she could not bear to let the child eat packed food, so she bought cookbooks. She would cook for Tong Hua when he was filming.
Hence, she was trained to cook well.
“Yummy,” Gu Xie said.
When he was on the plane, he did not eat anything. Indeed, he was hungry. Now, his lover was just beside him, and there was a nice aroma around him. His heart was filled with satisfaction.
“Did something make you unhappy at the charity event tonight?”
Lin Xiaojuan shook her head lightly. “Nothing much.”
“Really?”
Lin Xiaojuan nodded and smiled. She picked up her chopsticks and mixed them around the noodles. While trying to look nonchalant, she asked, “Gu Xie, do you know Jing Yun?”
Gu Xie’s hand paused for a moment, and there was a weird look on his face that was so quick that Lin Xiaojuan could not judge it. It was kind of awkward and kind of frustrated. He nodded. “I do. When she was your artiste, we collaborated before. Have you forgotten?”
“Huh?” Lin Xiaojuan looked around. Indeed, she had forgotten. “You guys collaborated before?”
“I was a guest actor in The Sound of The Blue.”
“Oh…” Lin Xiaojuan tapped her head. “I really forgot about that. You only came on screen for three minutes. Oh boy, my memory is failing.”
“You really paid zero attention to me back then. You even forgot about the show where I was a guest in.”
“…” Lin Xiaojuan was feeling so confused.Was the Movie King complaining that she did not pay enough attention to him?
But everyone knew that to her, he was an insurmountable peak that she would never have bothered to think of conquering.
Just like the characters in legendary myths, he was too far.Why would she even think that she would become his girlfriend one day?
