Ji Fanchen felt that it was actually quite far from the hotel, so he chased after her. “Sheng Sheng, let me drive you there!”
‘They did not know if Ling Sheng had heard him or not, but she waved her hands at them and ran far away.
Just when Cheng Ye was about to tell her that he had seen Jun Shiyan when he left the set, a taxi stopped for her.
Ling Sheng opened the car door and got in. She even rolled down the window and waved goodbye to them.
Cheng Ye frowned and looked at Ji Fanchen. He asked softly, “Brother Chen, that man must have tricked Sister Sheng Sheng on purpose. Do you think she’s in any danger?”
‘That terrifying man had been standing across the set not long ago and he looked a little scary. Could it be that he was going to attack Sister Sheng and do something worse than a beast?
Ji Fanchen laughed at him for thinking too much and asked, “Do you think he dares to?”
Although he did not know much about Third Master Jun, he believed that he was not that kind of person. He still cared a lot about Sheng Sheng, so perhaps he called her over just to see her.
Before Ling Sheng got out of the car, she realized that the entire house was dark. Even the street lamps were not lit. She frowned in puzzlement, Xu Xi wanted her to come and get her things. Could it be that there was no one at home?
She thought that Xu Xi would be waiting for her at the door with her things. After all, the useless man had quarreled with her and ignored her. He definitely did not want to see her.
However, there was no sign of Xu Xi at the door. She got out of the car full of suspicion. She walked to the door, looked at the tightly shut door, and knocked twice.
Perhaps it was because she was in a bad mood when she knocked, but the door was knocked open by her. The door was not locked and was left ajar.
“Xu Xi,” Ling Sheng called out. She frowned strangely. Where was he?
The courtyard was very quiet. She could only hear the rain hitting the ground, the trees swaying, and the sound of the umbrella she was holding which made her shiver uncontrollably.
Step by step, she walked towards the dark house. When she reached the door, she took off her shoes and subconsciously tried to put on her slippers. When she realized that there was nothing for her to wear, she sighed deeply and shook her head in self-mockery.
Her slippers were placed in a fixed position that she was used to every day. She guessed that Xu Xi must have placed them there. Anyway, she didn’t even need to look at them and just wore them.
Ling Sheng went in barefooted and took a careful look at every corner of the living room. When she did not see the useless man, she lowered her voice and shouted, “Xu Xi.”
‘The lights in the living room were not switched on and it was very dark. As an outsider, it was not easy for her to switch on the lights when she came in. However, the sound of running water could be heard coming from the bathroom on the left side and there was light coming through the door.
Ling Sheng was still waiting to return to the hotel to eat and watch television with Ji Fanchen and Cheng Ye. She still needs to read her script and was busy. She then knocked on the door and raised her voice. “Xu Xi, where did you put the things? Tell me. I can take them myself.”
This bathroom was not big. She and her son had never used it before, nor had she ever seen the useless man use it.
After waiting for a moment, perhaps because the shower was too loud, he did not hear her. The only response she got was the sound of running water.
Ling Sheng furrowed her brows in puzzlement as she criticized him unhappily. What was going on? He was the one who had asked her to come over to get something, yet he had still gone to take a shower.
No, that’s not right! He’s taking a shower? With Xu Xi’s personality, he would never do such a thing. If it wasn’t Xu Xi, then it must be.
Just as Ling Sheng thought of this, the bathroom door suddenly opened. She lifted her head quickly and her eyes widened in shock.
The bathroom was filled with mist. At this moment, the man was like a perfect statue, his tall figure completely enveloping her.
‘The man’s hair was completely wet and dripping with water.
Droplets of water fell from his cold and perfect face, past his slender and fair neck, to his exquisite and alluring collarbones, and finally to his abs that were so perfect that it made people scream. His V-line disappeared into the white towel wrapped around his waist that barely covered his important parts.
Ling Sheng looked at the man in front of her, and was aroused. She subconsciously swallowed and felt her mouth go dry. She quickly shifted her gaze away, was this man trying to seduce her?
She was not going to be bewitched by his beauty. Her voice was a little hoa.r.s.e and she could clearly feel the pressure coming from the man. She was not angry and went straight to the point. She scoffed in extreme disdain. “You asked me to come, not Xu Xi, right?”
The man’s low, s.e.xy, hoa.r.s.e voice seemed to come from his chest. He lowered his eyes slightly and subconsciously took a step back, as if he was something dirty that she could not avoid. The suppressed fire in her heart erupted like a volcano.
“Where’s my stuff?” Ling Sheng did not want to look at him at all. However, she had to admit that his temperament, figure, and face were excellent. Everything satisfied her aesthetic standard.
The man’s pupils constricted and his gaze was dangerous. In the next moment, he had already pulled her into his embrace and his arms were tightly wrapped around her slender waist.
Ling Sheng looked up with a mouth full of profanities, but someone held the back of her head, making her unable to move.
‘The man was too strong. He rested his chin on the top of her head and let out a deep sigh of satisfaction. “You’re here.”
“Jun Shiyan, let go of me.” Ling Sheng was angry and wanted to bite him. However, his chest was as hard as a rock and she could not reach him. She could only push him away angrily. “You shameless hooligan, I’ll sue you for hara.s.sment!”
‘The man’s voice was low and gentle, as if he was coaxing her. “Be good, stop fooling around.”
“Jun Shiyan, I’m warning you to let go of me. Otherwise, don’t blame me for disregarding our past relationship and attacking you.” Ling Sheng gritted her teeth and warned him.
Who’s making a fuss? Who’s the one making a fuss? He was the one who chased her away, and he was also the one who called him back. What does he think she is? A toy that can be summoned and waved away at will?
After saying this, the man hugged her even more tightly, as if he wanted to crush her into pieces.
Ling Sheng was completely enraged. She clenched her fists and used all her strength to step on his foot and push him away.
However, the next moment, she froze on the spot again. She widened her eyes in panic and saw that the man seemed to have become a lifeless statue as he fell backward.
“Jun Shiyan!” Ling Sheng’s voice trembled as she looked at the man who had collapsed on the ground. She rushed over in fear, wondering what was wrong with him.. She had not used any strength at all, so why did he suddenly collapse?
