I Went Viral After Dating a Superstar-Chapter 127 Drama Performance
Mu Qianli’s temper flared up, but at that moment...
A hand suddenly moved, clapping onto her fingers that were tightly clutching a towel.
The fair fingers, distinct at the joints, grabbed her hand and moved.
Pei Jinxi’s eyes looked over at Mu Qianli, the weariness apparent in his slightly sunken eye sockets, revealing pallor. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
Mu Qianli felt a wave of joy.
"You woke up."
Lin Wanruo also hurriedly looked over.
"Jinxi."
Pei Jinxi held onto Mu Qianli’s hand and did not let go, causing everyone around to be momentarily stunned.
Even the staff who had just been watching the two women arguing were somewhat dumbfounded.
But then they saw Pei Jinxi struggling to sit up, and right in front of everyone, he embraced Mu Qianli’s body, causing her to stiffen up at the bedside.
She was momentarily dumbstruck, with her hands placed on either side, suddenly not knowing where to put them.
Feeling his embrace, her heart rate increased, but she dared not look at the burning gazes behind her.
"You..."
Why did he suddenly hug her like this? She wasn’t ready to go public yet...
The moment Pei Jinxi woke up, he saw her sitting by his side.
It felt like a dream, hard to believe.
Why would she come all the way to this set?
Because she’d heard about his injury?
"You, how are you feeling, does it hurt, why are you up, I... I, that is, I came on behalf of Hu Yi to... to check on... you..."
The more Mu Qianli lied, the faker it sounded.
She managed to squeeze out the last word but then heard him chuckle, looking at her helplessly and spoke, "Fine, tell him I’m okay."
"It’s good you’re okay, it’s really good..."
She lowered her head to quickly fiddle with her hair and asked him, "Where did you get hurt? Let me have a look."
He lifted his shirt.
On his fair abdomen, where the traces of abs could still be seen, there was a large wound on one side.
She silently looked at it and said with frustration, "It’s so big."
Despite the solid bandaging, it was truly large, and it pained Mu Qianli’s heart to see it.
He said, "It looks scary but it’s nothing serious, don’t be afraid."
He teasingly pinched her cheek, trying to provide comfort.
Yet, Mu Qianli still felt sad.
It must hurt a lot, it surely must...
Mu Qianli bit her lip, her eyes filled with sorrow, unable to hide her feelings, which made him feel a surge of tenderness.
"Alright, alright, it really doesn’t hurt."
Behind them, the staff finally couldn’t bear it any longer and coughed, covering their mouth to remind, "Then, where is Sister Qianli staying tonight?"
It was only then that Mu Qianli remembered there were others present.
She turned around and said in haste, "Don’t worry, I’ll just sleep in the car..."
"No." He pulled her back, "You sleep here."
"..."
Mu Qianli’s eyes widened as she gestured threateningly to him, "There’s no place to sleep here, I can’t trouble the set, my car will be fine."
"It’s okay, you can sleep on the adjacent sofa," he said lifting his head to the others, "How can we let a woman go sleep in her car?"
The staff quickly agreed, "Exactly, exactly, Sister Qianli, please don’t mind, just sleep here. We often have to make do in the crew; it’s normal for men and women to sleep nearby. Who doesn’t know about our tough conditions."
What they were implying...
It was basically just short of directly saying it’s fine for you two to sleep together.
On the side, despite being slow to catch on, Lin Wanruo could also see the unusual dynamic; even if Mu Qianli’s face denied it, Pei Jinxi’s attitude was nearly declaring outright, "This is my woman."
