Chapter 139: Ignoring Me?
Not long after, Mufeng picked up the phone. “What’s the matter?”
“Sir!” Yicheng heard Mufeng’s voice and immediately abandoned the burden of being the general manager of Shanpin and became an assistant in peace.
Forget it! An assistant would be an assistant!
Even if he were an assistant, he would still be the assistant to the great CEO Qin!
He was proud!
“Jiang Xun won’t be filming the variety show ‘Unfulfilled Lovers’ after filming tomorrow.”After Yicheng had no more worries, he reported to Mufeng more relievedly. “She has to prepare for filming, and after filming, she’ll have to prepare for her exams. I’m afraid she won’t be able to participate in the show before the new year, so she might as well just quit and not take up a spot as a guest.”
“Got it.” Mufeng nodded. “Well done.”
He couldn’t do many things with Jiang Xun in front of the cameras.
The main reason was that he didn’t want to be seen by outsiders when he interacted with Jiang Xun.
Jiang Xun’s face was especially red and shy. It was rare to see her behave like that. Even he rarely saw her that way, so why should the audience and the program team see that?
That was something special that only belonged to him.
After receiving Mufeng’s praise, Yicheng happily hung up the phone.
Mufeng sent Shuli a WeChat message: [Director Shi, I’ll quit after filming ends tomorrow.]
Shuli instantly replied: [Okay, okay. Your participation in one episode already brought us great profit.]
He had just received a call from Yicheng and knew that Jiang Xun would quit. He had expected Mufeng to quit as well. Hehe!
Therefore, he had already thought of this response long ago. He only needed to wait for Mufeng to look for him to reply immediately.
Mufeng hung up the phone and started eating. He carefully browsed through the reviews and finally selected four restaurants.
The links to one barbecue restaurant, one hot pot restaurant, one fried chicken restaurant, and one Sichuan restaurant were all sent to Jiang Xun.
Mufeng asked: [What do you want to eat for dinner?]
However, after waiting for twenty minutes, he still didn’t receive a reply from Jiang Xun.
Mufeng’s heart sank for a moment before he sent another message: [Are you ignoring me?]
After waiting for five minutes, he still didn’t receive a reply from Jiang Xun.
Mufeng frowned slightly. He picked up his phone and left the room. Then, he went to the door of Jiang Xun’s room opposite his.
Jiang Xun had just come out of the shower. She hadn’t blow-dried her hair and was using a towel to dry it.
She was too embarrassed to face Mufeng today and didn’t plan to leave the room, so she decided to shower and change into her pajamas to relax.
Until now, the image of her in the car was replaying in her mind.
When she thought about it, Jiang Xun’s heart couldn’t help but beat faster. Her face burned up again as if she was in a sauna.
The feeling of Mufeng’s breath on her lips was still so vivid up until now. It was as if Mufeng was right in front of her, and his breath was brushing against her.
Even her face was burning hot.
Jiang Xun raised her hand to touch her cheek in a daze. It was the spot where Mufeng’s nose had touched earlier. It was frighteningly hot.
Thinking of his hot breath on her lips, Jiang Xun subconsciously sucked her lips in.
Jiang Xun’s hair was still wet, but she was no longer in the mood to dry it. Instead, she wrapped her hair with a towel to hold some of the water in her long hair.
She sat by the bed and picked up her phone. She saw a message from Mufeng received twenty-five minutes ago.
Jiang Xun rubbed her thumb against the side of her index finger repeatedly before she replied: [I’m not hungry…]
Before she could finish writing, there was a knock on the door.
Jiang Xun’s heart pounded nervously, and her heartbeat quickened.
She walked to the door with her phone and opened it. Mufeng was standing at the door.
Mufeng was stunned when he saw her current state.
She was in her pajamas and a wet white towel wrapped around her head.
A few strands of wet hair stuck to her milky-white and delicate cheeks.
Mufeng stopped breathing. When he reacted, he quickly switched off the camera on the wall. How could others see Jiang Xun like this?
Mufeng retracted his arm and pinched the space between his eyebrows.
Fortunately, Jiang Xun was going to quit the show the next day. Otherwise, guarding against her in front of the camera would be impossible.
Shi Shuli looking at the screen was stunned for a moment. Then, he said gloomily, “The livestream team is not with them now. So why did he turn off the camera?”
“Hehehe…” Zhang Zhisheng laughed dryly. “I didn’t expect Mr. Qin to be so jealous. It’s just that his hair is wet, not his body. He won’t even let us take pictures.”
Shi Shuli sighed, even more, when he heard that. “It would be great if the two of them don’t quit. Maybe after our program ends, there will be a real couple. Then our program will make a lot of money.”
Zhang Zhisheng patted Shuli’s shoulder. “Director, don’t think about it. It’s not up to you.”
It was all because Mufeng could do whatever he wanted. Even Shuli didn’t dare to bother Jiang Xun.
Shuli was speechless.
Shuli impatiently patted the back of Zhisheng’s head. “Brat, you’ve grown up, I see!”
Zhisheng hurriedly ran away. “Hey, Director, my bad! Stop hitting me!”
Mufeng stood at the door of Jiang Xun’s room. He smelled the faint sweet scent of Jiang Xun when he saw her in the morning.
“Turn off all the cameras in your room first!” Mufeng looked down at Jiang Xun. “Otherwise, it’s not convenient to talk.”
Jiang Xun thought about it and agreed.
Although Mufeng was standing at the door, the cameras in the room could still record their interaction.
Jiang Xun had just taken a shower, so she naturally took off the microphone.
Mufeng had already taken it off.
Jiang Xun went back to her room to switch off the cameras.
When she turned back, she found Mufeng still at the door. He did not enter without her consent.
Jiang Xun switched off the camera and returned to the door. Before she could say anything, Mufeng said, “Were you taking a shower just now?”
That was why she didn’t reply to his text message.
“I sent you the link to a few restaurants. Take a look and see what you want to eat.” Mufeng looked at Jiang Xun’s attire. It was inappropriate for him to go into her room.
He didn’t want the other three male guests to see Jiang Xun in her pajamas. “Let’s eat in your room later.”
The cameras had been switched off anyway.
Shuli couldn’t see Jiang Xun and Mufeng at all. The screen was all black, and he was so worried that he kept scratching his head.
“I’m not hungry,” Jiang Xun replied as she braced herself.
She still had some food in her suitcase to deal with.
“Really?” Mufeng raised his eyebrows.
“I ate a lot during the day, so I’m not hungry now.” Jiang Xun rubbed her stomach and convinced herself that she wasn’t hungry and that she didn’t care about the snacks in her suitcase if she was hungry.
“I sent you something for barbeque, hot pot, fried chicken, and Sichuan cuisine.” Mufeng did not insist. “Take a look first. If you’re hungry, let me know. If there’s anything you want to eat, add them to the shopping cart.”
After saying that, Mufeng went back to his room.
Jiang Xun was perplexed.
That was it?
Jiang Xun closed the door and felt a little lost.
Mufeng left just like that.
Jiang Xun opened Mufeng’s text message. She did not have a chance to send out her reply before. So, she deleted her response.
