Chapter 220 - Trouble During The Filming II

"What?" Liang Zixuan's eyes widened in surprise. When she noticed Goo Shengli and Han Cihui's gaze, she smiled at them with embarrassment. Then, she lowered his voice and said, "Hou Yingyi actually stayed in the same hotel as us?"

"That's right!" Dai Huian thought for a moment and said, "How about you and Zhelan share a room? If that really doesn't work, I'll stay with you, but don't stay alone. It's not safe for an actress to stay alone."

Although Dai Huian was a young director, she was still clear on how the entertainment circle worked.

Many male directors liked to knock on other people's doors at night whenever they saw a beautiful actress and it was natural for them to be willing.

Not only the director, but many famous actors also liked to do such things.

Dai Huian would definitely not do such a thing. She believed that Goo Shengli would not do such a thing either. Everyone knew Liang Zixuan's relationship with Hou Yingyi, and Dai Huian was afraid that Hou Yingyi, who was a scumbag, would eat in the bowl and then think about the food in the pot¹. 

Even Liang Zixuan was a little scared too.

She was not only afraid of Hou Yingyi, she was also afraid of Wei Xiaoqing.

As the proverb goes, it was easy to dodge an arrow on the surface but hard to guard against an arrow on the inside.²

Wei Xiaoqing hated her to death now that she had become like this. According to her narrow-minded personality, Liang Zixuan was currently alone outside. If she didn't stir up some trouble, she wouldn't be called Wei Xiaoqing!

When Liang Zixuan returned, she asked Zeng Zhelan to come and stay with her. After dinner, Zeng Zhelan stuffed her clothes into the closet and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. I won't let them bully you."

Liang Zixuan hugged her pillow as she sat on the bed, watching Zeng Zhelan's movements. Thinking of Zeng Zhelan's fierce appearance, she couldn't help but laugh. "That's right, with you next to me, why should I feel scared? Besides, they might not come looking for me, so we don't need to overthink this. We can sleep and eat well and not be afraid of them."

Zeng Zhelan closed her suitcase, stood up, and stretched. "Aiya, I'm so tired."

She turned her body and saw Liang Zixuan's adorable appearance in her nightgown, hugging her pillow. Suddenly, an idea crossed Zeng Zhelan's mind and she wanted to tease Liang Zixuan.

"Hee hee ..." Zeng Zhelan laughed out loud while rubbing her hand. "Little girl, please tell me if it hurts. I promise I'll make you comfortable."

Liang Zixuan was startled for a moment before she obediently hugged her pillow and hid her head behind it. "Please no, sir. I'm still a little girl from the Liang Family. Please spare me."

"What a good girl!" Zeng Zhelan pounced on Liang Zixuan, grabbing her hands as she leaned over. "This grandpa likes Liang's granddaughter so much. Come, let this grandpa kiss you!"

"Hahaha …"

Liang Zixuan was tickled by Zeng Zhelan. She laughed hard and said, "Zhelan, please, stop it. Hahaha, I'm going to fall off the bed."

Zeng Zhelan hugged Liang Zixuan's waist and pulled her to the bed. After they both lay down, she hugged Liang Zixuan and said proudly, "Is this usually how President Han sleeps with you? Hahaha ... I also want to sleep with the President's woman tonight, hahaha ..."

Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Liang Zixuan and Zeng Zhelan stopped playing around and cupped their ears to listen. Of course, someone came ringing the doorbell.

Liang Zixuan was so scared that she sat up from the bed and pushed Zeng Zhelan towards the door. "Go and see who it is."

Zeng Zhelan nodded and got off the bed. She walked to the door and opened it. When she saw Han Cihui, she quickly swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

Han Cihui wore a long-sleeved T-shirt and a thick jacket. He looked toward the door, "I'm going to the Internet Cafe to play a game. If you need anything, call me."

Zeng Zhelan nodded. "Alright, don't be there for too long."

After closing the door, and shortly after Zeng Zhelan climbed on the bed, the doorbell rang again.

Liang Zixuan sat up from the bed. "Maybe Cihui again. I'll go, you stay here."

Zeng Zhelan didn't think much of it while covering her head with a blanket and sighed in a low voice. "Why does this Han Cihui sound like a woman? Why is he so nagging? Can't he let us sleep in peace?"

Liang Zixuan tied her long hair with a rubber band and went to open the door.

By the time the door opened, she was dragged out of the room by a strong force before she could clearly see who was outside the door.

"Ah!"

Liang Zixuan screamed in fear. Her mouth was suddenly covered by someone. Hou Yingyi's voice came from behind her. "Don't scream, it's me!"

Liang Zixuan pushed him away in a rage, but Hou Yingyi acted as if he knew what she would do. He grabbed her with one hand, covered her mouth with the other, and dragged her to a room next door.

After entering the room, Hou Yingyi let Liang Zixuan go and locked the door.

Liang Zixuan stabilized her emotions and told herself not to panic. She looked at Hou Yingyi sharply and asked coldly, "What are you doing?"

"I'm not doing anything." Hou Yingyi reached out to grab Liang Zixuan's hand. "I just want to talk to you."

Liang Zixuan slapped his hand harshly and took two steps back. After keeping a peaceful distance from Hou Yingyi, she said in disdain. "I don't have anything to discuss with you, let me out. "

"Zixuan." Hou Yingyi looked at her with a wounded look and slowly clenched his fists at the sides of his body. "Don't do this to me. I grew up with you. My mother was your piano teacher, so even if you're mad at me, you can't hate me, okay?"

"Hate you?" Liang Zixuan scoffed. "To hate you, I need to put you in my heart. Hou Yingyi, what happened in the past is already like in the past. I have no feelings for you. If you let me out now, I can let you go."

Hou Yingyi saw that Liang Zixuan seemed to have hardened her heart on him. He also knew that some things couldn't be rushed.

He reached into his pocket and took out a lollipop, then handed it to her. "This is what you liked to eat when you were little, I'll give it to you."

Liang Zixuan was really angry and laughed. "Hou Yingyi, are you a fool or am I a fool? Do you think lollipops can fool me? Even if you want to fool me, please show a little sincerity, I don't lack this lollipop now."

"I know." Hou Yingyi stubbornly stuffed the lollipop into Liang Zixuan's hands. "I know you don't lack anything right now, so you also look down on this lollipop. However, Zixuan, I want to buy these lollipops for you, just like when we were young. Every time you suffer from grievances, I would buy lollipops to cheer you up. I want to … I want to buy you a lifetime's worth of lollipops. "
