20Don’t worry, I’ll have someone buy a couple thousand pairs later.
Even as Pei Ying landed on the bed, she still didn’t understand how things had come to their present state.
Song Nanchuan was blocking her mouth with his pa.s.sionate kisses, and even though she wanted to push the man away, she wasn’t nearly as strong as him.
In a trance, she heard the sound of her stockings ripping. As the two of them kissed, there were fewer and fewer clothes on their bodies. The feeling of skin on skin excited her and Pei Ying couldn’t help stretching her body.
After Song Nanchuan had his fill, he finally released her lips and pulled out a small, colorful box from beneath his pillow. Pei Ying watched with misty eyes as he put on a condom. Seemingly at the end of the road, she said, “Didn’t you say… you wanted to talk…?”
“Yes.” Song Nanchuan bent his lower body and reached his slender fingers into her dark hair until he found her forehead. “Rather than communicating with words, I like to let my body do the speaking.”
Pei Ying, “….”
Her lips were bright red from Song Nanchuan’s kisses. They opened slightly, as if wanting to say something, but Song Nanchuan took the opportunity to go in for another deep kiss.
The last of her clothes were removed, and Song Nanchuan took advantage of her distracted state to move into her body.
“Oh…” The suddenly strange feeling made Pei Ying frown in discomfort. Song Nanchuan’s hand moved to her chest as he continued to kiss her, scattering away her attention.
“Does it hurt a lot?” He lifted his head slightly, his eyes shining and his breathing heavy. Pei Ying took a few breaths and then looked at him. She said, “It’s a bit better than last time…”
Song Nanchuan kissed her along her neck, down to her collarbone, no longer suppressing his desires.
After Pei Ying climaxed, the two of them laid on the bed, panting. Song Nanchuan embraced Pei Ying from behind and pushed away her long hair as he started to kiss her back.
When Pei Ying recovered her breath, she turned her body to look at Song Nanchuan. “Can we discuss something?”
Song Nanchuan hugged her again and kissed her nose. “What is it?”
His voice still carried a l.u.s.tful tone as he spoke to Pei Ying. She steadied her state of mind and looked at him. “Can you not tear my stockings next time? Can’t you just take them off properly?”
Song Nanchuan paused, slightly taken aback. He obviously hadn’t expected for her to say that. He chuckled and looked at her, a playful look in his eyes. “But aren’t women’s stockings made to be torn?”
“……Who told you that!” Were all men’s minds this filthy?! With all his tearing, she’d never have enough stockings!
As if seeing through her thoughts, Song Nanchuan laughed and said to her, “Don’t worry, I’ll have someone buy a couple thousand pairs later.”
Pei Ying, “……That’s not the point! Do you have to tear the stockings?”
“Mm, it gives me pleasure.”
Pei Ying, “….”
Which eye went blind at the start that she thought he was a gentleman with self-restraint?!
Pei Ying closed her eyes, not wanting to talk anymore. Song Nanchuan saw her expression and the corners of his lips raised in a slight smile. He kissed her eyes. “Then can I also ask you about something?”
Pei Ying unhurriedly opened her eyes and looked at him. “What is it?”
“Does it have to be the violin version of ‘Girl in the Sea’? Piano won’t do?”
Pei Ying was slightly taken aback. Was he asking about the proposal thing? Her heart started to flutter, but after seeing Song Nanchuan’s expectant expression, she suddenly thought of something. So Prince Song… couldn’t play the violin?
Wanting to take advantage of this newfound information, she happily smiled. “Nope. The violin version gives me pleasure.”
Song Nanchuan, “…”
He wrapped his arms around her and chuckled before getting out of bed. He put on a random pair of pajamas and walked over to his computer desk, seemingly looking for something. Pei Ying grabbed the blankets and sat up curiously. She asked him, “What are you looking for?”
Song Nanchuan mysteriously wriggled his brow but didn’t respond. After a moment, he held up a CD and waved it at Pei Ying. “Cute, your your debut single.”
Pei Ying was dumbstruck.
…Why did he have this piece of her dark history?!
Song Nanchuan turned on his computer and put in the CD. Not long after, a cheerful tune started playing.
Hearing her own singing from three years ago, all sorts of feelings bubbled up inside of Pei Ying. “Why do you have this CD? They stopped selling it ages ago.”
Song Nanchuan replied, “Xiao Zhang gave it to me before. What? Compared to three years ago, don’t you think your singing has improved a lot? And this song has gone through post processing.”
“Mm… I did improve a lot. After all, I’ve been going to music cla.s.ses these past three years.”
“So, you should be more confident in yourself. You sing very well.”
Pei Ying couldn’t help smiling. “Thanks. I’ll definitely do a good job for Qiao Yichen tomorrow.”
Song Nanchuan’s eyebrow jumped. He turned off his computer and walked over to pull Pei Ying into a tight hug. “You dare to mention another man while you’re on my bed, mm?”
Pei Ying, “….”
Was that the crux of the problem?
She wanted to justify herself, but Song Nanchuan had already started kissing her, leaving no s.p.a.ce for an explanation. Feeling that his att.i.tude had come out again, Pei Ying finally pulled herself out from his lips. Face red, she said, “I still have to sing tomorrow.”
Song Nanchuan pressed her against himself, slightly short of breath. He said, “No need to wait for tomorrow. You can sing now. Sing for me to listen to.”
“….” Pei Ying had a thousand things she wanted to say, but they’d all been swallowed up by him.
Fortunately, that evening’s affairs didn’t mess up Pei Ying’s voice. She could predict what kind of scolding Producer Qiao would have given her if they had.
Advertis.e.m.e.nt
She was finally able to sing the song through from start to finish. Qiao Yichen stood outside the room, watching her through the gla.s.s. “You’ve got the beginning down pretty good, but you don’t have very good control at the high notes. That’s not something you can learn in a few days. Production time is limited and I don’t have the time to wait for you, so we’ll record that part line by line.”
“Oh, okay…” Although he was asking for her to sing the song line by line, Qiao Yichen seemed to be in a much better mood than yesterday.
“Control your breathing with your abdomen as much as possible. It shouldn’t be too hard with one line. We’ll leave the rest of it to post production.”
“Oh…”
“If there’s no problem, you can get started.”
Pei Ying followed his instructions and sang one line at a time. Singing the song this way was definitely easier, and the recording went smoother as well.
When they took a break, Pei Ying curiously asked the audio engineer, “Is Boss Qiao’s mood better today?” Compared to yesterday, he was simply like an angel today.
The audio engineer stole a glance at Qiao Yichen, who was getting some water by the door. In a low voice, he said, “Boss Qiao’s wife was having concerts out of the area for awhile. She just got back yesterday, so of course his mood is better. Their married relationship must have been pretty harmonious last night.”
Pei Ying, “….”
Qiao Yichen shot them a chilly look, and Pei Ying and the audio engineer immediately sat up straight. Qiao Yichen put down the cup of water in his hands and walked over. “Since the two of you don’t want to rest, then we’ll continue.”
“Okay…” Pei Ying quickly returned to the recording room.
After singing all afternoon, the song was finally recorded. After Qiao Yichen announced the day was over, he looked at Pei Ying and said, “Although the recording will be perfect, it’ll show when you sing live.”
“I know…”
Pei Ying originally wanted to say that she would practice her breathing and strive to get better, but then Qiao Yichen said, “You should just stick to acting in the future.”
Pei Ying, “….”
Okay, Boss.
She walked out from the recording room and Song Nanchuan was actually waiting for her. When he saw her walk out, he walked over to her. “Done recording?”
“Mm.” Pei Ying nodded. Song Nanchuan watched Qiao Yichen walk out and intimately pulled Pei Ying into his shoulder. Smiling, he said to her, “Great. We won’t have to come here to get bullied anymore.”
Qiao Yichen glanced over at him. “Please make sure you watch over her, so that my ears won’t have to suffer from her singing anymore.”
Pei Ying, “….”
Even to the end, she wasn’t able to avoid it.
After the song was recorded, Pei Ying’s next order of business was to wait for the song to be mastered, and then she would film an MV for it. Ren Shanshan filled up her empty schedule with a photoshoot for their store.
The photoshoot was in the afternoon, so Pei Ying slept in until late. When she woke up, she went down to feed the cats.
Speaking of, ever since she’d gotten together with Song Nanchuan, she rarely stayed at her own place. As long as she had dinner with him, she always ended up abducted to his house.
“Blackie, Flower, I’m sorry. It’s been two days since I last fed you guys.” Pei Ying rubbed their heads and waited for them to finish eating before heading back up to her apartment.
After eating some oatmeal with yogurt, she went to check her Weibo. Pei Ying felt that it had been a long time since she’d been so at ease.
She swiped through her Wiebo for a few minutes and then she saw the third installment of her and Song Nanchuan’s story.
Pei Ying, “…”
These paparazzi really loved her, didn’t they?
Advertis.e.m.e.nt
The paparazzi had changed their methods again. The headline this time was, “After female star, Pei Ying, and Song (family’s) director, Song Nanchuan, publicly announced their relationship, she’s been caught entering and leaving Song Nanchuan’s mansion several times!”
These paparazzi sure had some remarkable abilities. Not only did they find Song Nanchuan’s house in A City, they even camped outside of it. But the reaction this time wasn’t nearly as big as the last two. In fact, there was even a lot of backlash (to the article) from the netizens.
So annoying. Them again? Aren’t there any other celebrities?
They’ve already publicly announced that they’re dating. What’s so surprising about her coming out of his house? (picks nose) This reporter must still be single. (picks nose)
Editor, be careful if you’re going to act like this. CEO Song might put you out of business. (smile)
f.u.c.king using our Pei Pei to get attention again! If you’re so enthusiastic, why don’t you go worry about public welfare!!
Am I the only one who thinks Pei Ying is self-destructing?
……
Pei Ying felt that if things continued on this way, this series would get its big conclusion soon enough. Moreover, Ren Shanshan had told her that because her Weibo was getting so much exposure, their studio shop was getting good business too. The buyers had even said that they’d found the store through a link on Pei Ying’s Weibo.
From that point of view, she was still quite thankful to these paparazzi.
But in Song Nanchuan’s eyes, those paparazzi snooping around outside his house had already crossed his bottom line.
“Find out what company’s putting out this news and have the lawyers send a letter. Tell them that I’m suing for invasion of privacy (?) and infringing on the usage of my image.
“Understood,” Xiao Zhang responded respectfully before slipping out to take care of business.
