Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Qin Shuang lowered her head and left the hospital.
She was wearing a mask and a baseball cap. In order to make that Zheng Zhi stop mocking Sister Xi, she did not speak along the way.
Just like that, she arrived at the apartment she was staying in with Cen Bai and collapsed on the sofa.
Cen Bai had an activity to attend today and was not at home. Hence, the lights in the house were all switched off. The sky gradually darkened. Qin Shuang turned on the lights in the living room and ran to the kitchen to cook a bowl of noodles. She did not care about her figure and started eating.
Ever since she discovered this special ability that day, she had been unable to eat or sleep well. Even when she slept at night, she would dream that she had been arrested.
The fans, especially the people led by Empress, were holding up a sign. It was originally filled with words like White Light or Qin Shuang, but now, there was only this word on it: Monster!
“Drown this monster!”
“What if she knows how to swim? Burn her!”
When the fans supported her, they were as crazy as they were now. They surrounded her one by one while she was tied up and threw her into the water.
Whoosh.
Water rushed at her from all directions, making her feel suffocated.
The fear of having nowhere to go and nowhere to run woke her up. She did not dare to sleep anymore.
Qin Shuang was feeling very pressured, but she didn’t dare to speak to anyone about this matter. She was afraid that she would really be treated as a monster. The only person she dared to speak to and the only person she could dare to tell the truth to was Sister Xi.
At this thought, Qin Shuang picked up the noodles and ate the bowl in one sitting.
The hot soup warmed her body, and her cold hands and feet gradually regained their senses.
She took a deep breath and recalled that her co-actor had…
She felt even more stifled and ate another mouthful of noodles.
Following that, her phone rang. It was her newly signed manager.
The manager said, “Xiao Shuang, what happened? I heard that you ran out of the production set? The director was also being vague and said that he gave you two days off. What exactly happened?”
Qin Shuang clenched her jaw and lowered her head. “Brother Li, can I stop acting in this show?”
The manager was stunned. “Why? Xiao Shuang, the penalty fee is very high. It’s as high as eight digits. You have to give me a reason, right?”
Qin Shuang sighed. “There’s a kissing scene in this show.”
The manager said, “I know about the kissing scenes. Aren’t you 19 years old this year? You should have known this when you accepted the role back then. You also agreed. Do you regret it now?”
Qin Shuang wanted to be willful and say that she regretted it and wanted to stop acting.
However, before she could speak, she recalled that the studio had worked hard for her. If she gave up now…
Qin Shuang took a deep breath. “Forget it. I’ll re-join the production team in two days.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up, Qin Shuang looked at the noodles in front of her and suddenly lost her appet.i.te.
Kissing scene…
The thought of the actor who was playing the male lead made her feel disgusted.
Qin Shuang took a deep breath and decided not to eat. She stood up and sat on the sofa, hugging the pillow and staring blankly.
She had never been liked since she was young.
Her father did not love her, and neither did her mother.
Even when they had a gathering with relatives, they only praised Qin Lu and scolded her for being disobedient.
She really did not know what she had done wrong to attract so much disgust.
Perhaps her existence was detestable.
Hence, when she was 15 years old, she felt that there was no point in continuing to live. She went up a tall building and planned to jump down.
This way, the daughter their parents hated would no longer be around. Only Qin Lu, their treasure, would be left.
It was also at that time that Cen Bai’s performance saved her.
It made her feel as though there was still light in her life.
From then on, she lived like a porcupine. Since no one liked her, she might as well not care about what others thought.
After joining the Roaring Flame Society and strutting around with Gao Yanchen, Qin Shuang felt even more empty in her heart as she watched others fear her.
However, it was different now. She had Cen Bai and Sister Xi.
However, if they found out that she was a monster, would they still continue to love her?
Qin Shuang clenched her fists but got a surprise.
At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open. She turned around and saw Cen Bai standing at the door, changing his shoes.
Qin Shuang was shocked. “Why are you back?”
Cen Bai raised an eyebrow. “When I pa.s.sed by here and saw the lights in the apartment, I knew that you were here. Why? Did the rehearsal not go smoothly?”
It did not go well.
However, she did not want to trouble her idol, so she said, “It wasn’t bad.”
Cen Bai walked over and looked at her. “What are you doing?”
Qin Shuang picked up the script from the table. “Looking at the script and thinking about the role.”
Cen Bai took a look and his expression turned teasing. “Is this scene very difficult?”
She seemed to have been in a daze for a long time.
At this thought, Qin Shuang replied, “Yes, it’s very difficult, so I’m thinking about the character psychology.”
Cen Bai smiled. “Mhm. We’ve never done this before. It’s indeed a little difficult.”
Qin Shuang: “?”
She suddenly looked at the script and realized that he was looking at an intimate scene! Moreover, it was a scene that took place in the bathroom!
Qin Shuang’s cheeks turned red. She then saw Cen Bai stand up and walk to the bathroom.
Qin Shuang: “H-Hubby, w-what are you doing?”
