Chapter 46 - “Where are you trying to grope?” (2)

“?”

Gu Nian pointed at the entrance that was empty and said in an innocent tone, “I wasn’t worried about him retaliating because I thought you two didn’t know who I am.”

Field service man, “……”

“That was a mistake on my part,” said Gu Nian regretfully.

Field service man, “……”

After a long silence, the field service man couldn’t help but circled back to the original subject. “Are you that fond of that Luo Xiu that you are willing to risk yourself to defend him, Screenwriter Gu?”

“?”

The abrupt question made Gu Nian stopped what she was doing, looked up, and looked into the man’s eyes.

Then, in this eyes, Gu Nian saw the unconcealable stir – the kind that would make him ask her out next week the second she said “no”.

Gu Nian: …. That’s not good.

As such, Gu Nian said genuinely and without hesitation, “I love him.”

The service man was dumbfounded. “Love?”

Gu Nian, “Yes. The kind of love that make me want him to be the first in line as my heir.”

--- Providing that the law would allow a 22-year-old adult female to adopt a 24-year-old adult male.

As a representative of a normal human being, the field service man obviously translated the meaning of her words to be “I want to marry him” automatically. He left dispirited and even said gentlemanly before he walked away, “I wish you luck.”

“Thank you. I will do my best.”

“……”

Inside the empty dressing room, Gu Nian tightened her fists. She must touch her gentle, kind, simple, and cute precious son with her incredible motherly love.

Son! Mom is coming!

Inside the lounge.

Hearing the girl humming the tune to Mothers Are the Best in the World as she walked away, the little assistant held back his smile as best he could and turned around.

“Brother Luo, I told you that that little screenwriter genuinely wanted to solicit s*xual favor from you and you didn’t believe me. --- You heard what she just said, right? Her daydream has gone as far as belonging to the same household register as you.”

Luo Xiu looked up and the gold chain from his spectacles fell to the side of his neck. His cold and pale skin accompanying the dangling gold color made everything looked cold.

Luo Xiu leaned against the couch while the entire event unfolded. Even at the most urgent moment, he did not so much as stir a little. He didn’t seem to care at all whether the girl who stood up for him on the other side of the wall would encounter any danger at all.

--- so cold and heartless that even the little assistant who was well aware of his true nature felt bad.

“Even though the girl most likely had fallen for your look, but after hearing that heart-felt profession of love and her fearless act of defending you, don’t you have even just a little bit ….” The little assistant gestured a heart with his hand, “touched?”

Luo Xiu smiled nonchalantly. “Are you touched?”

The little assistant patted himself on his chest. “If a girl that pretty would stand up for me, I don’t mind if she wants s*xual favor from me!”

Luo Xiu lifted up his chin and gave a smile that wasn’t a smile. “Well, you go ahead then.”

“Huh? Me? I don’t think that will be right, won’t you say?” The little assistant was tempted and became awkward. “After all, you are the one that she is after…”

As he talked, he looked over at the man sitting on the couch.

Sitting there, the man had his legs crossed and looked up slowly as he heard him talking while looking at him warmly.

There seemed to be a patch of darkness that wouldn’t disperse in the deep part of his eyes.

The little assistant shuddered.

He stood up straight in a second or less and was short of saluting him. Looking solemn, he said, “No, I can’t do it! That’s not right! You are the one who she likes. I can’t go for you!”

“You sure about that?”

“No, no, no, no, no!” The little assistant shook his head wildly under a strong sense of survival.

It was until after the conversation was over when the little assistant’s soul that was scared out of his body returned and his stiffened brain started to churn again.

That was odd.

Did he just saw something that resembled possessiveness coming from his boss?

Shortly after that idea had occurred to him, the little assistant looked at the man on the couch dubiously and tested water cautiously. “Brother Luo, I heard that every one in the production team were kissing up crazily to Screenwriter Zhuo recently.”

“Mmm.”

The man grunted a response without even bothering to look up.

The little assistant let out a sigh of relief.

He was right after all. That idea was too out there: This was his boss they were talking about. One who wouldn’t even blink an eye when a woman throw herself at him naked and whom he had once thought could be impotent. How would it be possible for him to possess emotions such as possessiveness toward a suitor of his?
