Chapter 1029: Into His Arms
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
How good could a woman who hung out with Shen Fanxing all year round be?
She had given him a wallet for no reason. So this was it?
He turned to leave, but Xu Qingzhi grabbed his wrist tightly. She leaned to the side and pressed her shoulders against his arm. Almost all her strength was on his wrist!
He struggled and she tried her best to suppress him. She smiled and said, “If you buy more, you will have a chance to take a photo with Best Actor Chu.”
“Take a photo with Chu Yi?!”
Everyone’s gaze landed on Chu Yi, who was standing beside Xu Qingzhi.
“That’s right. This is our spokesperson, Chu Yi. He’s here to deliver a surprise today! Don’t miss it!”
Xu Qingzhi raised her hand and removed Chu Yi’s mask.
Her thin lips were pursed into a thin line and her jaw was tightly clenched. Chu Yi’s standard cold expression.
“Ahhhhh!”
“It’s really Chu Yi! It’s really him!”
“Oh my G.o.d, he’s so handsome. His entire body is glowing!”
There were more and more customers outside Zhi Qin Cosmetics. When they saw Chu Yi, they screamed excitedly.
They all rushed to the counter to s.n.a.t.c.h the items!
Xu Qingzhi dragged Chu Yi to a corner with a twisted smile.
Why was this man so strong?
“Xu Qingzhi, you…”
Chu Yi was so angry that he didn’t know what to say.
He had been tricked by this woman!
If he had known, he would never have accepted that wallet!
“Help us! Can you bear to see us stockpiling so much?”
“I can bear to!”
“You’re the spokesperson. If you can’t sell the item, it won’t be good for your reputation, right?”
“…”
“Best Actor Chu, I bought two bottles of perfume and two sets of skincare products. Can you take a photo with me?”
Chu Yi remained silent with a cold expression. Xu Qingzhi hurriedly said, “Yes, of course. Chu Yi said that his fans are all very cute. Now that I’ve seen them, they indeed live up to their reputation.”
The corners of Chu Yi’s lips twitched. How… hypocritical!
The little fan’s face turned red from the praise. “I didn’t expect Movie King Chu to say such words. Thank you, Movie King Chu. We will always support you! You have to work hard!”
Her words were emotional and sincere. It would be inappropriate for Chu Yi to reject her now.
“Thank you. Let’s take a photo together.”
After speaking calmly, the fans ran to Chu Yi’s side. Xu Qingzhi volunteered to take photos.
With the beginning, the fans went even crazier. In the end, they wished someone would move the shelves away.
Looking at the empty shop, Xu Qingzhi smiled in satisfaction.
This was a genuine clearance!
In the end, Chu Yi sat in the nursing area of the shop’s resting area. His handsome face was tense and he wished that ice could seep out.
Xu Qingzhi leaned over and patted Chu Yi’s shoulder. “You’ve worked hard.”
Chu Yi reached out and grabbed her wrist that was on his shoulder. With a dark expression, he flung her away forcefully. However, when he raised his hand halfway, he saw that Xu Qingzhi’s face had turned pale and fear flashed across her eyes. His other hand subconsciously covered his abdomen.
Only then did Chu Yi recall that she was pregnant. However, Xu Qingzhi was caught off guard by the force of his throw and her body tilted.
Chu Yi’s expression changed drastically. His long legs reached out in the direction where she was about to fall. The hand that was grabbing her wrist quickly moved to her waist. His long legs followed and corrected her direction, causing her to fall on top of him.
Xu Qingzhi threw herself into his embrace and her body slid down.
Chu Yi tightened his grip on her waist. She reacted and instinctively climbed up his shoulders.
She only stopped when her last knee landed on the sofa.
Chu Yi’s scalp went numb from her actions.
He spread his legs a little, afraid that her bent knees would press somewhere she shouldn’t.
Her hand gripped his shoulder tightly and a faint fragrance wafted into his nose, causing Chu Yi’s expression to change slightly.
Everything happened too quickly. Before Xu Qingzhi could react, she had already retreated from his embrace.
Feeling a chill in his arms, Chu Yi rubbed his empty hands and looked up at her.
“Are you okay?”
Xu Qingzhi tidied her clothes and shook her head. “I’m fine.”
How much hatred did he have to use so much strength?
This person’s temper was really bad.
Chu Yi stood up calmly.
“It’s getting late. It’s time to go back.”
“Oh.”
Xu Qingzhi replied calmly and followed Chu Yi out of the mall.
–
When Shen Fanxing saw the latest trending topic online, her red lips curled into a smile.
He knew that Qingzhi wouldn’t behave herself. He didn’t expect her to be so useful.
However, she had the guts to scheme against Chu Yi.
She wondered if Chu Yi would flip her table when he returned.
She refreshed the page and a new trending topic appeared. It wasn’t the top trending topic, but the photo of Xu Qingzhi and Chu Yi hugging in the shop caused an uproar.
Shen Fanxing’s heart skipped a beat and her eyes darkened.
“Xu Qingzhi is getting married tomorrow, but she’s being intimate with Best Actor Chu today. Is she openly cheating on Rongcheng’s Young Master Li?”
“The wedding is tomorrow. Why is the bride still in Ping Cheng?”
“Could it be that the marriage has changed?”
“What?! Isn’t this woman pregnant? Why would Best Actor Chu want her?!”
“Impossible. This must be a coincidence.”
The popularity rose quickly and instantly s.n.a.t.c.hed the first place.
Shen Fanxing called Chu Yi immediately.
“Look at the trending searches. What’s going on at the theater?”
Shen Fanxing’s tone was cold and capable. Chu Yi read the news solemnly and said coldly, “She almost fell. I just helped her up.”
“Where were you then?”
“In Zhi Qin Cosmetics.”
Shen Fanxing heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Get your manager to get the surveillance footage from the store and clarify this matter immediately. This matter will…”
“I know.”
“Wait.”
Shen Fanxing interrupted Chu Yi. After a moment of silence, she said, “Give the phone to Qingzhi.”
Xu Qingzhi took the phone and said, “Fanxing.”
“Qingzhi, tell me, should we clarify this news immediately?”
“…” Xu Qingzhi bit her lips.
Shen Fanxing continued, “If you really don’t intend to marry Limo, then we won’t settle this matter. With the Li family’s reputation in Rong City, they might not be willing to hold this wedding. We’ll clarify this matter after tomorrow. If you want to… we’ll settle this now.”
Xu Qingzhi was silent for a while before saying calmly, “Let’s settle it tomorrow.”
“… Alright, get Chu Yi to tell his manager to settle this tomorrow.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up, Xu Qingzhi returned the phone to Chu Yi. “Fanxing said to deal with this tomorrow.”
Chu Yi pursed his lips. “Can I? Isn’t it your wedding tomorrow? It will affect you, right?”
Xu Qingzhi smiled bitterly and said, “That’s what I want.”
Chu Yi looked at her through the mirror and didn’t say anything.
On the international flight from the United States to Ping Cheng, the man’s slender fingers held the black phone as he looked at the photo of the woman in the man’s arms.
There was a faint cold smile on his face. His face was exceptionally handsome and he looked n.o.ble and elegant. However, there was an indescribable coldness that seeped into his bones.
