"Baby, are you worried that I might develop feelings for her because of the drama?" Lin Qingyi stroked Qin Shiyue's face. Qin Shiyue thought they had fallen in love because of acting together, so it was understandable for her to worry Lin Qingyi might also fall in love with someone else because of acting.
"I trust you, but I'm more worried that she might develop feelings for you during filming." Qin Shiyue couldn't help but worry. Lin Qingyi's quick detachment from the role just now made her lean toward trusting Lin Qingyi’s ability, but she was more worried Yang Yun would fall in love because of the drama and develop covetous thoughts toward Lin Qingyi. They still had to film together for several months. There were chances both in and out of the drama, how could she not worry?
Qin Shiyue's simple statement, "I trust you," greatly pleased Lin Qingyi, demonstrating Qin Shiyue's confidence in her professional abilities. As for others, whether they might develop feelings for her during filming, that's beyond her control.
"I can't control what others do. You can think of it this way: it's because the person you like is so outstanding that others like them too. Such an outstanding person belongs only to you, aren't you happy?" Lin Qingyi gently pinched Qin Shiyue's chin and coaxed her.
“Only belongs to me?” Qin Shiyue still felt very uneasy. She turned over and pressed Lin Qingyi beneath her.
“Mm, only belongs to you.” Although it was a bit cheesy, she still wanted to coax someone first. Lin Qingyi felt she wasn't someone who easily liked others. Otherwise she wouldn't have stayed single until 29, Qin Shiyue should be her exception.
"Forever?" Qin Shiyue asked again. She knew that forever was a vague concept, but she still couldn't help hoping that Lin Qingyi's feelings for her could last a little longer, and even longer. Very few people could keep such a promise, but at least for now, it could make her feel a little more at ease.
“The word forever really stumps me.” Sweet words and vows during the passionate stage of love were normal for couples, but Lin Qingyi had always been practical. She only promised what she could do. If she couldn't do it, she didn't want to promise carelessly. Right now, her feelings for Qin Shiyue were unquestionable, but the future was so long, with too many unknown things.
“Forget it.” Qin Shiyue couldn't hide her disappointment and sadness. Couldn't she at least coax her for now? Maybe she was too childish, still stubborn over such unrealistic promises.
"I will always love you, and my feelings right now are genuine." Lin Qingyi naturally couldn't bear to see Qin Shiyue disappointed and sad, so she immediately tried to make amends. She thought she was still inexperienced in love, and should've said this sentence first just now.
Hearing Lin Qingyi's words, Qin Shiyue felt much better. Then she thought about how Lin Qingyi doesn't make promises lightly, giving her a reliable air, and suddenly felt very at ease. Perhaps when you like someone, whatever they say or do, you filter them in your eyes, making them the image you expect them to be.
"I trust you." Qin Shiyue looked at Lin Qingyi beneath her. She really likes Lin Qingyi, even more than when she liked Kong Huizhi.
“So, do you feel at ease now?” Seeing Qin Shiyue’s mood clearly improve, Lin Qingyi felt much more relieved.
"No." Qin Shiyue felt that Lin Qingyi and Yang Yun would be spending several more months together, and she probably wouldn't be able to feel at ease for a long time. However, she could manage her own emotions. Who told her to be so incompetent? This was the punishment for not being strong enough. Qin Shiyue felt that this punishment might not be a bad thing; only in this way could she strive to be more ambitious and not be content with the status quo.
Qin Shiyue didn't tell Lin Qingyi about her feelings; the shame she felt was too difficult to express. If she spoke of it and succeeded, all would be well; but if she failed, she would only become another laughingstock.
"So all my efforts to coax you were for nothing?" Lin Qingyi asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Keep trying, keep coaxing me, and maybe I'll be fine. I like it when you coax me." Qin Shiyue pressed her lips to Lin Qingyi's and kissed her earlobe.
Lin Qingyi's ears tingled again.
"Then how else do you want me to coax you?" Lin Qingyi stroked Qin Shiyue's face down to her neck, asking seductively.
Qin Shiyue's tongue probed into Lin Qingyi's ear.
Lin Qingyi's overly sensitive ears made her unable to help but make a sound.
“Like this, it's better than talking.” Qin Shiyue wanted to leave her own exclusive mark on Lin Qingyi again.
"Little pervert." Lin Qingyi's voice became seductive.
There probably won't be enough firewood to burn tonight.
Qin Shiyue stayed with Lin Qingyi's film crew for a day and two nights.
During the day, Qin Shiyue watched Lin Qingyi and Yang Yun film scenes together, and still couldn't help secretly feeling jealous. After feeding her jealousy, at night she couldn't stop tossing Lin Qingyi around and exercising her dominance in bed.
Knowing that Qin Shiyue was jealous, Lin Qingyi was willing to let her be, after all, they could only meet briefly. However, Lin Qingyi felt that her physical strength and energy were starting to fail her. Filming during the day and working hard until late at night, even the most hardworking person couldn't keep up with her.
Filming for Qin Shiyue’s drama was about to start. She pushed away her other work and wanted to focus on filming this drama well.
Qin Shiyue’s ambition for her career was like a burning fireball.

“President Qin, Madam fell off the stage and has been taken to XX Hospital for treatment." Qin Shilan's assistant entered the office to report the incident immediately upon learning of it.
The news of Qin Shilan and Kong Huizhi's marriage hasn't been made public yet, but her assistant and secretary know about it. Qin Shilan wants it to be public, but Kong Huizhi doesn't. She had just divorced the younger sister and then married the older sister right after. Kong Huizhi felt it was too embarrassing. Kong Huizhi was already unwilling to marry her in the first place, so Qin Shilan could only go along with her and temporarily not announce it publicly.
Qin Shilan was supposed to attend Kong Huizhi's dance performance today, but she couldn't go because she had an important project to discuss. She never expected Kong Huizhi to have this accident.
“Is she hurt? Is it serious?” Qin Shilan asked nervously.
"It's unclear at the moment; we'll have to wait for the hospital's test results for details." Kong Huizhi had just been admitted to the hospital, and the results shouldn't be available so soon.
"Let's reschedule. I'm going to the hospital now.” Qin Shilan knew the project was important, but her wife was more important, so she could only cancel the project discussion that had entered a critical stage.
"But our partners are already at the company." The assistant felt the stage wasn't too high, and even if Kong Huizhi got injured, it shouldn't be too serious. The project was entering a critical phase, and most importantly, since everyone was already at the company, wouldn't it be inappropriate to send them back now?
"How about you take on the role of President Qin?" Qin Shilan countered. She didn't like others questioning her decisions; did she not know the implications?
“I know what to do.” Knowing she had spoken too much, the assistant immediately corrected her mistake.
"Just tell them that my wife had an accident, so we need to reschedule," Qin Shilan said to her assistant, so that the assistant wouldn't have to make up another excuse to fool the business partners.
Kong Huizhi is somewhat well-known in the dance world, and as the ex-wife of popular actress Qin Shiyue, she is also relatively known to the public. The news of her falling and getting injured on stage made it into a minor hot topic.
Everyone is curious whether Qin Shiyue will visit her ex-wife. Although Qin Shiyue is currently dating Lin Qingyi, Kong Huizhi stood up for them when they were embroiled in controversy. Logically, this divorced couple should have parted amicably.
These gossipy netizens didn't get to see Qin Shiyue, the popular actress, visit her ex-wife; instead, they got to see the actress’ older sister.
Just when everyone thought Qin Shilan was a good ex-sister-in-law, someone revealed that Qin Shilan and Kong Huizhi got married.
This news was too explosive. Divorce the younger sister, then turn around and marry the older sister. Even novels wouldn't dare write this.
At first, the public didn't believe it.
But Qin Shilan admitted it, she admitted she and Kong Huizhi had just gotten married.
Qin Shilan was a private person, and Kong Huizhi was a dancer. Neither mixed in the entertainment circle. If it were others, not many people would care. But one was Qin Shiyue’s biological older sister, and the other was Qin Shiyue’s ex-wife.
My goodness, the Qin sisters really know how to play! Is this some kind of ** play? Or did the older sister put a green hat on the younger one?” So was Qin Shiyue’s divorce real after all? Everyone started gossiping again.
Qin Shiyue, who had already planned not to take the popularity route anymore, was pushed onto hot searches once again. All kinds of false malicious speculation, all kinds of jokes, all kinds of people watching the excitement.
When Qin Shiyue saw the hot search, she felt very helpless. She felt felt like although her sister had washed her hands of it and withdrawn from the scene, her legend would still live on.
Fang Xinhua looked at the hot searches and thought it was a pity that Baby Qin'er didn't follow the traffic route; she was practically a hot search magnet.
Qin Shilan was no pushover either; the hot search didn't stay on the list for long before she had it taken down.
Kong Huizhi was extremely upset.
Falling off the stage due to poor stage design is bad enough. The abrasions are minor compared to the tendon damage, which will take at least 2-3 months to heal. Kong Huizhi is worried that her recovery will affect her dancing.
This had already driven her to rock bottom, and Qin Shilan, that crazy woman, perhaps because she felt she hadn't had enough bad luck, actually announced their marriage to the media.
The hot search had been suppressed, but everyone already knew.
Upon seeing Qin Shilan, Kong Huizhi couldn't help but feel a surge of anger and irritation. She didn't want to pay any attention to Qin Shilan standing in front of her.
“I’m sorry, this wasn't the right time to make it public, but when they asked me, I didn't want to deny it.” Qin Shilan knew Kong Huizhi would be angry, and she was willing to bear Kong Huizhi’s anger.
“Do you think I'm not unlucky enough?”
