With Qin Zhou, there was just no way he knew how to explain it clearly. And if he didn’t explain it clearly, the man would inevitably overthink things. Hence, he did not specifically explain the origin of this villa.
“Forget it. I don’t expect you to ask me to stay and serve me tea.” Qin Zhou was here with the intention of handing him the termination letter personally. Now that the actor had signed it, the settlement document was in effect.
He had other matters to attend to, and had to take Liang Yin to a dinner appointment later.
Hua Jin walked Yun Shishi downstairs and was surprised to see Liang Yin sitting on the sofa.
“What brings you here?”
When Liang Yin saw Hua Jin, she immediately put down her teacup and stood up to greet him. “I heard you were feeling unwell, so I came to see you!”
“Oh, here to see me …” The actor put on a disgusted expression and remarked, “If you’re here to see me, why have you come empty-handed?”
Liang Yin was speechless for a moment.
The actor walked over and lowered his voice. “How are things going with you and Qin Zhou?”
At his question, Liang Yin’s face reddened and she said angrily, “Hey, lower your voice!”
“I’m speaking very quietly as it is.”
The actor glanced at Qin Zhou and saw that the man was talking to Yun Shishi. He was obviously not paying attention to them. He turned to Liang Yin and continued, “As the saying goes, the pavilion closest to the water enjoys the moonlight first. Now that I’ve terminated my contract, Qin Zhou will definitely focus all his attention on you. This way, you’ll have more opportunities! But girls shouldn’t be too proactive. Be reserved, understand?”
“Are you really going to terminate your contract?”
“Why? Can’t bear to see me go?” Hua Jin chuckled. “I’m just fulfilling my dream ahead of time. Look, isn’t it nice to not have to work and be able to travel all over the world?”
“Have you become a kept man?” Liang asked.
The actor’s lips twitched violently at the suggestion. “Kept man?”
“Qin Zhou said you couldn’t afford a villa here with all the money you’ve made over the years. You must have found a sugar mummy.”
Damnation!
Hua Jin was furious at Liang Yin’s words! Qin Zhou actually slandered him behind his back?! Kept man?! Was he that kind of gigolo!?
“I’m leaving, Hua Jin!” Yun Shishi suddenly interrupted his thoughts and waved at him.
The actor’s face broke into a smile as he walked to the door. He waited till she was gone from sight before turning to the man beside him with a resentful expression. Qin Zhou felt an incredibly resentful glare directed at him. He was a little surprised why Hua Jin was glaring at him like that. Behind him, Liang Yin was snickering.
Qin Zhou was flabbergasted and asked, “Why are you glaring at me like that?”
“Nothing!” Hua Jin said in a huff, “I thought you have matters to attend to. If you’re busy, I won’t keep you.”
“…”
This was a serious dismissal! Qin Zhou was puzzled by the actor’s sudden change in attitude. However, it was getting late and it was indeed time to leave.
He turned to Liang Yin and said, “Let’s go then! We’re in a hurry.”
“Okay.” Liang Yin stood up and walked over to Qin Zhou. When the man saw that Hua Jin was still wearing that resentful expression, he muttered something about being baffled and left.
It wasn’t until the two of them had left that the actor realized… In his current state, he seemed no different from being a kept man. However, the person who kept him was not a sugar mummy, but the most terrifying man in the Hurricane Group…
