Early in the morning, Lin Xinyue was awakened by the noisy sounds outside.
As she brushed her teeth, she groggily walked into the yard and sleepily asked, “Dad, what’s going on next door? It’s so noisy!”
“ Brother Liao ’s son said they’re filming a movie; they started shooting around four or five this morning.”
old Lin was leisurely practicing Tai Chi, a look of admiration on his face as he said, “That son of the Liao family is quite impressive. He built his career from scratch and became a big-name producer. It’s a pity such a good ‘catch’ isn’t my son-in-law…”
At this point, he sighed deeply, filled with emotion.
Hearing this, Lin Xinyue brushed her teeth with even more vigor, thinking to herself: What’s so great about it? She’s an impressive flight attendant too; how could she possibly be inferior to that guy?
Suddenly, her eyes widened as she saw a stunning woman walking out of the Liao family’s grand mansion.
The woman had a voluptuous figure that nearly burst out of her uniform, and her skirt was so short that just a slight turn would reveal the color of her “inner beauty”…
Are they really filming?
She quickly reached out and slapped her dad hard on the arm. “Dad, you’re bleeding!”
old Lin calmly retracted his fist and said seriously, “Form is emptiness; emptiness is form. Martial artists… tend to have more energy. I’ll go talk to your mother.”
“Liao Tiru, your house is huge…” came a super sweet voice.
“Pfft—” Upon hearing that voice, Lin Xinyue sprayed the water she had just taken in all over, trembling with shock. Her heart raced; that kind of voice…
“No way, just right,” Liao Tiru replied.
To her astonishment, Liao Tiru actually slapped the actress on the backside. Lin Xinyue’s eyes instantly blazed with fury. Enraged, she grabbed something nearby and threw it at him.
“Bang—”
“Who! Who ambushed me? Cai Jingshan, it must be you trying to steal my role! Let me tell you, that’s impossible!” A sharp voice rang out in frustration, grating on the ears.
Feeling guilty for hitting the beauty, Lin Xinyue stuck out her tongue like a cat caught in the act and stealthily made her way back inside.
“Lin Xinyue.”
Someone climbed over the fence, their sun-kissed skin contrasting with a set of pearly white teeth. It was Liao Tiru. He shook the cup in his hand and said, “Your things fell into my house. Do you want to come over and get them back?”
Liao Tiru raised an eyebrow, sizing up Lin Xinyue, his gaze finally settling on a particular area.
Lin Xinyue followed his wicked gaze downwards and gasped, realizing she had forgotten to wear her “Inner Beauty.”
“Liao Tiru, you pervert! Turn your head and throw the cup over here!” she shouted, both embarrassed and angry.
Why should he listen to her? Liao Tiru turned his back to her, casually twirling the cup in his hand, exuding a lazy charm that immediately attracted two actresses who approached him to chat.
Lin Xinyue fumed, not just because he wouldn’t return the cup, but because he was flirting with those two women. Even though they were big stars, she inexplicably decided she didn’t like them at all.
After chatting with the two actresses for a while, Liao Tiru led them inside. As for him, he walked around the gate and headed towards Lin’s house with the cup in hand.
“Hey! I only asked you to throw it over, not come here! What are you doing?” Lin Xinyue lifted her chin defiantly and said, “Are you trying to invite me to act? Hmph, I’m not interested.”
Liao Tiru shrugged and teased her deliberately, “Your figure isn’t exactly standard either.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Xinyue exploded with rage. “Get back!” She snatched the cup from him and turned to go inside, only to find Liao Tiru following her in.
“Even in your own house, you shouldn’t dress so lightly,” Liao Tiru frowned as he spoke.
“Mind your own business,” Lin Xinyue retorted irritably.
“Really not considering it? The pay is quite good,” Liao Tiru pressed on, continuing to tempt her.
“Tsk! I refuse to be a pig, even if you’re a turtle,” she shot back before slipping into another room.
What a sharp-tongued girl.
Standing in the hall waiting for Lin Xinyue to change clothes, Liao Tiru glanced at the oversized photo in the room and suddenly felt that he didn’t seem to dislike her as much as before.
They could be considered childhood sweethearts. Lin Xinyue liked him, and he had known it for a long time. At first, he didn't think much of it, but who would have expected her way of expressing it…
She stole his school uniform and embroidered her name on it, resulting in a complete mess; she took his brand-name shoes to wash, turning them from white to a deep black; she sneaked into his house to cook, nearly burning him into a meatball; she claimed to be taking care of him while he was sick, but ended up causing his IV to backflow with fresh blood… Remembering those past events, Liao Tiru couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine; the scar on the back of his neck was a gift from her…
It was no wonder that when he saw her again after eight years, he was so startled. However, her appearance was oddly etched in his memory; he recognized her at first glance.
Half an hour had passed—why hadn’t she come out yet?
Liao Tiru knocked forcefully on the door: “Lin Xinyue, come out and talk.”
…
Is she asleep? He boldly guessed, and knocked even harder: “Lin Xinyue, Lin Xinyue.” He couldn't believe she could still be sleeping.
“Go away, don’t disturb me while I’m handling important matters!” This time, someone indeed responded, but the voice was hoarse and slightly breathless… it came from Lin's parents.
Important matters? It couldn’t be…
Liao Tiru felt three black lines appear on his forehead. In broad daylight…
Well, it was understandable; they were all men after all.
