Puzzled, she got up and opened the door. Jiang Xiaoli saw Zheng Jing standing outside. “Why aren’t you sleeping? Why are you in my room?”
Zheng Jing was wearing a very flirtatious nightdress. She smiled and curled her finger at Jiang Xiaoli. “I have something very important to tell you. Come closer and I’ll tell you.”
Jiang Xiaoli leaned forward without any qualms and was given a heavy slap.
“B*tch, I’m telling you to behave yourself and stop dreaming about seducing Xiong Junxi. Otherwise, I’ll make sure you die an ugly death!” With that, Zheng Jing quickened her pace and ran back to her room. She was worried that Jiang Xiaoli would retaliate.
“Tll fight it out with you!” Jiang Xiaoli chased after her, but she was locked out. She was so angry that she banged on the door. “Zheng Jing, just you wait. I’ll make you regret it!”
Zheng Jing gave a smug smile after Jiang Xiaoli left in a huff.
Meanwhile, Xiong Junxi turned back from the windowsill after smoking. He heard the commotion and frowned. “What did you do? Didn’t I tell you not to cause trouble for me?”
Facing him, Zheng Jing put on a demure act. “How would I dare to make trouble for you? I just feel sorry for you and want to serve you well.”
Seeing Zheng Jing take off her nightdress, Xiong Junxi immediately thought of that incident with Jiang Xiaoli and lost all interest. He waved his hand and said, “I’m not in the mood right now. I’m going to sleep.”
Zheng Jing’s expression stiffened instantly. She stood rooted to the ground in disbelief.
This man had rejected her just like that?
Zheng Jing watched as Xiong Junxi lay on the bed, covered himself with the blanket, and went to sleep. She stomped her feet angrily as she piled all her unhappiness upon Jiang Xiaoli. Nevertheless, she had no choice but to go to the second bed and try to sleep.
Xiong Junxi closed his eyes and lay on the bed. His mind was still filled with the scene of him and Jiang Xiaoli that night. He couldn’t remember most of what happened, but every time he thought about how he had gotten the wrong person and was being threatened by this incident, he felt like a fishbone
was stuck in his throat. It was unbearable.
Thinking about it, Xiong Junxi couldn’t fall asleep anymore. He got up and walked to the balcony to smoke.
The production team had already left. The huge courtyard was empty, and only weeds could be seen everywhere. Xiong Junxi stood on the balcony, the cigarette in his mouth flickering with his breathing.
After smoking and enjoying the cold breeze, Xiong Junxi felt much better.
“F*ck, I never thought I would ever be in such a dilemma. How unlucky!” With that, he stepped on the cigarette and crushed it. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he suddenly saw a red shadow flash past the corridor.
Xiong Junxi was so frightened that his hands trembled. He quickly raised his hand and patted his face. He resisted the fear in his heart and smiled dryly. “Oh, my eyesight is really getting worse. I’m actually hallucinating…”
Even so, Xiong Junxi quickly left the balcony.
At the entrance to the long corridor, Xiong Junxi looked around carefully. After confirming that no one was around, he comforted himself. “It’s already so late. I should quickly go back to sleep.”
With that, Xiong Junxi quickly went downstairs.
The dark stairs creaked as he stepped on them. Xiong Junxi lowered his head. When he reached the bottom, he suddenly smelled a stench..
