When Liang Yin heard this, her anger rose. Ignoring Qin Zhou’s strange gaze, she walked angrily to the men who had fallen to the ground and were rolling around in pain. She kicked them a few more times.
Hua Jin rushed forward to pull her back. “Alright, alright. I’ve already taught them a lesson. There’s no need for you to add to it.”
“The bastards! They tried to use force on a helpless girl!” Liang Yin huffed and stomped on them.
The actor and his agent watched in silence for some time before asking in unison, “Are you really that helpless?”
…
On the way back to the hotel, Qin Zhou made a deal with Hua Jin. “First of all, you’re not allowed to stay out all night.”
“Uh huh…”
“Secondly, no visiting nightclubs, bars, discos, and other such public places of entertainment.”
“Got it…”
“Thirdly, don’t let this happen again! If it happens again, your year-end bonus will be deducted!”
“What?!”
The actor wrapped his arm around Qin Zhou’s arm in grievance. “Don’t do that, big brother Qin! I’m the victim here. I’m only doing this to protect myself! Self-defense is not a crime!”
“Hmph! Don’t you know your own status? It’s late at night. Instead of resting in the hotel, you went gallivanting to a nightclub?! Hua Jin, you think you’ve made it and you’re so great now! Huh?” He gave Hua Jin a stern look.
The actor gulped and muttered timidly, “It won’t happen again!”
Liang Yin watched from the side, also frightened by Qin Zhou’s aura. This man seemed very scary…
Qin Zhou turned around and glanced at Liang Yin. He smiled gently, but his eyes were clearly cold. “And you. From now on, behave yourself and stay put in the hotel to memorize your lines. Don’t go running around. Understand?”
Liang Yin shuddered and nodded obediently at once.
Qin Zhou smiled in relief, then reached up and stroked her head gently, as if she were an obedient child. “Good girl.”
Good girl…
Good girl…
For some reason, when he stroked her head, his touch was especially gentle. Liang Yin’s face heated up, and her heart started racing. She actually felt like a real sucker for this gentle gesture. She bit her lip and secretly looked at Qin Zhou from time to time, feeling that Qin Zhou was really a reliable man. Although he gave people the impression that he was a little two-faced, she felt infinitely safe with him around. No matter what happened, she didn’t feel afraid with him around holding the fort. She felt completely unafraid.
Ahhhh… Her young and girlish heart! She was completely sold, intoxicated…
The actor looked from Liang Yin to his agent and frowned, feeling… There was something odd in the way that Liang Yin was staring at Qin Zhou.
After arriving back at the hotel, Liang Yin returned to her spot on the sofa. She was still in a daze thinking of Qin Zhou’s gentle gaze earlier on. Her heart was pounding.
The actor stood to one side with his arms folded, studying her coolly. “When Qin Zhou pets a puppy, he bears the same gentle expression in his eyes,” he reminded her kindly.
Snapping back from her thoughts, Liang Yin glanced back at him. “Were you talking to me?”
“Uh huh.” The actor sat down opposite her, across the coffee table His eyes studying and assessing her. “Eh? Liang Yin, don’t tell me you’ve taken a fancy to Qin Zhou?”
“Who …whoever said I fancy him?” Liang Yin retorted stubbornly. Suddenly she added, “However, I think he looks quite handsome on closer inspection!”
