Chapter 183: Sheng Yize’s “Punishment” (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“The guilty party files the suit first” was exactly what Li Fanxing was good at.
An Xiaxia was utterly speechless — the woman didn’t seem particularly good at playing her part when filming, but she suddenly became an excellent actress now?
Sheng Yize had changed into another costume and obviously had another scene to shoot. He frowned slightly as his dark eyes gave Li Fanxing a glance before s.h.i.+fting back to An Xiaxia.
His eyes said that he couldn’t care less about Li Fanxing, which made her grit her teeth inwardly.
Piqued, An Xiaxia simply decided to come clean with everything. “You stepped on me during the shooting first and bruised my hand! And you fell down just then because you tried to hit me but I didn’t let you get to me. How is that my fault?!”
Li Fanxing tried to explain, “It wasn’t like that! She’s making it up! She pushed me down and deliberately injured me!”
An Xiaxia opened her eyes wide and couldn’t believe how she had distorted the facts!
“Yize, please believe me…” Batting her long and full eyelashes, Li Fanxing willed tears into her eyes, giving herself the most pitiable look.
She wouldn’t accept this. She was the one who knew Sheng Yize since two years ago.
Who was An Xiaxia to follow him around all the time?
She trusted that even when conflict broke out between them, Sheng Yize would definitely be on her side!
An Xiaxia pouted and her little face was saying: I’m unhappy and very grumpy!
Sheng Yize’s face softened and he went up to her to caress her hair as if he was calming a bristling cat. He then picked up her hand and saw that it was indeed observably bruised.
He blew gently on it and asked in a low voice, “Does it hurt that badly?”
An Xiaxia was dumbfounded. She nodded slowly after looking confused for a few seconds.
She could clearly see the frown on Sheng Yize’s forehead deepen.
He beckoned one of the crew over and asked her to take care of An Xiaxia and deal with her wound.
When the staff took An Xiaxia away, all Sheng Yize could see was An Xiaxia’s back and the dangling little tail.
The look in his eyes was so unbelievably gentle, but it dropped to below the freezing point when he turned to look at Li Fanxing.
“Miss Li, please behave yourself,” said Sheng Yize in a cold voice. “Lay one finger on her again…” He stopped there on purpose and sneered at Li Fanxing.
She shook like a quail and there was a look of disbelief in her eyes.
He didn’t even ask before taking An Xiaxia’s side!
She tried to say some more, but Sheng Yize had already strode off.
Obviously, he didn’t want to listen to anything she had to say.
She realized the one thing that was more frightening than indifference — was disregard.
The total disregard meant that he didn’t care about her at all!
When Sheng Yize left to reshoot some of his scenes, Li Fanxing sat on the ground for quite some time before Qiqi helped her to her feet.
All her scenes were finished and she was only here today for the retake of this ensemble scene.
She shook with anger when she removed her makeup.
When she was ready to leave the site after everything was done, she walked past Sheng Yize’s dressing room on her way out. She saw that Sheng Yize had also finished his shoot and was talking quietly to An Xiaxia.
The teenage girl puffed up her cheeks, turned her face away, and wouldn’t talk to him, which he didn’t seem to mind at all. He only rubbed her hair and comforted her gently.
“Shall I take you to the hospital? Feel free to cry if it hurts so much. Don’t worry, I won’t say you look ugly when you cry.”
“Go away. I don’t want to talk to you,” grumbled An Xiaxia. Had it not been for him, she wouldn’t have been hurt in the first place!
Sheng Yize raised an eyebrow and brought up a previous topic. “I see you’ve grown a temper now. An Xiaxia, shall I punish you for real?”
