Chapter 28 - Reading Her Own Gossip

Chapter 28 Reading Her Own Gossip

The bright moon rose in the night sky. A cool breeze blew against her clothes, bringing with it a refreshing and natural cool sensation.

Liu Yue stood by the balcony alone with her hands supporting the railing as she gazed into the distance.

She had already returned to the South City and was staying at Liu Qi’s house. Although she could no longer act in The Ballad of the South Wind, Liu Yue’s mood wasn’t affected at all.

On the contrary, it was because of this that she had the time to come back.

Now, she was no longer busy. It was as if everything had quieted down.

Knock, knock.

“Ah Yue, are you asleep?” Liu Yue’s mother, Hu Minglan’s voice came from outside the bedroom door. Liu Yue hurriedly entered the house from the balcony to open the door.

“Auntie.” Liu Yue smiled gently. Liu Yue saw her mother carrying a doll that was similar to

her.

“Ah Yue, I remember that you were most afraid of sleeping alone when you were young. Now that Ah Qi isn’t at home, I brought you a doll that resembles Ah Qi.” Liu Yue’s mother said with a smile. She walked into the room and placed the doll on the bed.

It was a big pink bear. Liu Yue remembered that this big bear was a gift for Liu Qi on her 17th birthday.

When she was 18 years old, Liu Qi was just 17 years old. After she started her acting career, she was despised by her family. However, her second uncle and second aunt treated her very well and even let her live with Liu Qi for a year.

It was also from then on that Liu Yue and Liu Qi became close.

“Auntie, I’ve really troubled you.” The smile on Liu Yue’s face became even wider. She didn’t reject this doll.

She was afraid of sleeping alone when she was young. It was heartwarming for her aunt to still remember it.

“Ah Yue, go to bed early. I have nothing to do tomorrow. We can go out and take a walk.”

“Okay, good night, Auntie.”

After sending off Mrs. Liu, Liu Yue had just closed the door when her phone chimed.

It was a message from Ah Qi.

Ah Qi: “Sis, I just came back from the set. Have you reached home? How’s my mother’s leg?”

Although Liu Qi had already asked Mrs. Liu, she was still a little worried.

Speaking of which, she still felt that she owed Liu Yue. Fortunately, Liu Yue wouldn’t dislike her because of this.

Liu Yue comforted her this morning by telling her not to worry. This was the company’s matter and hadn’thing to do with the two of them.

Looking at the message sent by Ah Qi, Liu Yue pursed her lips and smiled. Every time she came to her second uncle’s house, Liu Qi would always ask, “Sister, when will you be home?”

This time, she also asked if she was home yet. Her words warmed her heart.

Liu Yue replied, “I’m home. I’m ready to go to bed. Auntie looks very well. She even invited me to go shopping with her tomorrow.”

Ah Qi said, “Then you should hurry up and go to bed. My mother is always super energetic when she goes shopping.”

North City, Vicas Hotel.

Liu Qi curled up on the sofa and sent Liu Yue a goodnight message.

“Miss Liu, drink some warm milk.” Lan Lan placed the warm milk in front of her.

She met many people on the set today. Director Li said that filming would officially start in three days, so she had three days to familiarize herself with the script.

Shen Nanxiao hadn’t returned yet. He had also sent a message saying that he was busy and would be back later.

After drinking the milk, she moved to a comfortable position and opened her phone to browse weibo.

She wouldn’t have known if she hadn’t read it, but she was shocked when she saw it.

She had made the headlines!

However, the second most searched topic was actually… Nangong Shu?

“Nangong Shu actually saved a kitten? That doesn’t seem like him,” Liu Qi teased as she read the article.

At this moment, Lan Lan smiled and said, “The headlines weren’t this in the morning. It was the incident where Mr. Nangong Shu beat up the staff in the cafe.”

“Huh? There’s such an incident?” Curious, Liu Qi scrolled through Weibo and finally understood the whole story.

She didn’t know if saving a little kitten was real, but the beating was definitely real, because this cafe was where Nangong Shu had told her to meet him.

After reading other people’s gossip, she began to read gossip about herself.

She didn’t know if it would be good or bad, so she was a little afraid to find out!

The heroine of The Ballad of the South Wind was changed immediately. It was actually Liu Qi, who had pestered Nangong Shu!

Alright, there was no need to read further. One look and it was obvious that it wasn’t good gossip.

She then opened her own homepage. She had already been certified as an actress and her fanbase had increased by more than three million. Suddenly, she thought that it was Sister Wang who did it.

Other than that, there were also the stills and copybooks that Sister Wang had sent her..

There were already a lot of comments, but she still clicked it open out of curiosity.

The first comment had the most likes, but it wasn’t a comment scolding her.

She felt a little better. “D * mn, I was originally Lu Xue’s fan, but Liu Qi is too good looking. I’m a fan of her looks.”

There were a few people who started arguing.

Rabbit Radish: “Where are your morals? Back then, when Liu Qi was pursuing Nangong Shu, she was so disgusting and shameless. Brother Shu doesn’t even like her.”

Second Battalion Commander’s Italian Cannon@Rabbit Radish: “What’s wrong with her? Isn’t she a nice little girl? Is someone immoral just for liking someone?”

Rabbit Radish@Second Battalion Commander’s Italian Cannon: “It’s all because of Brother Shu’s money. She’s a gold digger.”

Rabbit Radish: “You’re just jealous. Check Liu Qi’s family background. She’s even richer than Brother Shu’s family.”

Liu Qi was speechless for a moment. She really wanted to find a hole to hide in. Please don’t mention Nangong Shu!

Buzz!

Detective Yue said, “Alright, I’ll see you tomorrow at Victor Steakhouse Western Restaurant.”

She sent this message so long ago. Why did she only reply now? Cat Cat: “Alright.”

“Young Master, you’re back.”

Lan Lan’s voice startled Liu Qi. She quickly sat up and saw Shen Nanxiao pass his coat to Lan Lan before walking over to her.

The fragrance of wine mixed with the fragrance of lotus entered her nostrils. She couldn’t help but ask, “Shen Nanxiao, have you been drinking?”

“Yes, I had a business engagement.”

Shen Nanxiao sat beside her. His slender hand grabbed his tie and loosened it. Lan Lan had already gone to the bathroom to run the bath.

“Hug me.” Liu Qi went into the man’s embrace. Even if Shen Nanxiao had been drinking, his expression was still cold and indifferent.

Her small face was pressed against the man’s chest. She looked up at him and said, “Shen Nanxiao, there are three days before the shooting officially begins.”

“Okay.”

Shen Nanxiao hugged his little girl while pinching the space between his brows. He seemed a little tired.

Seeing this, Liu Qi came out of the man’s arms and obediently said, “I’ll massage your shoulders.”

“Okay.”

Taking this opportunity, Liu Qi slowly said, “Shen Nanxiao, I want to go out by myself tomorrow. Is that okay?”

“Yes, come back early then.”

Lan Lan had already finished running the hot water. When Shen Nanxiao went to take a shower, Liu Qi was also a little sleepy, but she still wanted to wait for him.

After half an hour, Liu Qi was asleep on the sofa. Lan Lan wanted to carry Liu Qi back to her room, but she felt that she couldn’t do this kind of thing.

“Girl?” Shen Nanxiao, who had just taken a shower, still had the fragrance of shower gel.

He called out to her, but the little girl didn’t respond. It seemed that she had really fallen asleep.

He could only carry her to the master bedroom.

Even though his movements were gentle, Liu Qi was still woken up. She looked at Shen Nanxiao in a daze and quickly rubbed her eyes.

“Shen Nanxiao, are you done bathing?” Liu Qi’s voice sounded hoarse and soft.

“Yes, go to sleep.”

“Can you sleep with me?” Liu Qi didn’t know where she got the courage to ask, but she just wanted to be hugged by Shen Nanxiao as she slept.

Because that way, she could sleep peacefully.

“No.” Shen Nanxiao rejected the little girl’s request with certainty.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to, but that he wanted it too much.
