Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations
Moh Yanchen raised his handsome eyebrows and gazed at Shen Chengjing with his deep cold eyes. “Okay!”
He liked her straightforwardness.
As a military man, he liked to be frank and didn’t want to waste time on guessing games.
During the meal, he remained silent, but it gave her a better impression of him.
“In the future, turn to me when you’re in trouble. Don’t try to shoulder everything by yourself. I’m a man, and you can depend on me,” he reached over and caressed her head as he said those words. Then, he brought the empty bowls and chopsticks into the kitchen.
Gazing at his tall figure, she touched her hair which still had his warmth and sensation on it.
Don’t try to shoulder everything by yourself; I’m a man and you can depend on me.
No one had ever said those words to her. He was technically a stranger, but he had saved her life and told her to depend on him and not to shoulder everything by herself.
“Let me help you.” She walked into the kitchen but was pushed out by him. “Your arm is injured; don’t move too much. Stay put and rest.”
Shen Chengjing stood at the door to the kitchen and bit down on her lip as she watched him do the dishes smoothly. “Do you do these things often?”
“When I was a soldier, I would sometimes cook with my bros. I’m used to it.”
“Are you in the army? No wonder.” Shen Chengjing was surprised but recalled that his walking posture and sitting posture were very straight and formal.
“I admired military men when I was little, and my father said that soldiers are sacred. So, I applied to join the army when I was a girl but didn’t make it,” she said with her head lowered and felt happy when she recalled the past.
“Then you must be careful. You might admire this military man for the rest of your life!”
“Ha. Don’t be so narcissistic.” Suddenly, she felt happy and forgot what had happened with Mo Yongqiang.
“I got a call.” Her cellphone rang in the dining room. She saluted him and ran over to answer it.
“Hello. Is this Ms. Shen?”
“Yes, this is.”
“I’m from the Blue Ray Studio. We’re preparing to make a Qing Dynasty time-travel movie. Can you come over and have an audition? The director watched a short video that you made a few months ago and thinks that you have potential; he especially asked you to try out for the supporting female role,” the agent said.
“Seriously? Am I dreaming?” She had never played a supporting female role even though she had done many roles in the performances organized by her school.
“Of course. I’ll send the time and address of the audition to your cell phone. I hope we have the opportunity to work together.” The agent was very polite.
After she hung up, a text message quickly came with a beep. After seeing the time and address, she checked the Blue Ray Studio on Baidu and found that it was a well-known company.
[TL Note: Baidu is the same as Google in China.]
“What is it? You look so happy.”
“Moh Yanchen, I was asked to have an audition. I’ll soon have work. I’ll make money and support the family,” she said in excitement. Turning around, she skipped over and took his hand.
“Make money and support the family?” He raised his eyebrows and looked displeased. “Ma’am, are you going to support me?”
“I told you that I’d make it worthwhile to you after we get married!” She patted her chest and said. Looking at his handsome face, she was struck with a good idea. “You are so handsome; if you enter the entertainment industry, I’m sure that you’ll become a big shot. Your appearance is top-notch.”
She soon entered her zone and imagined him becoming a popular A-list actor.
Unfortunately, her daydream was soon shattered.
“With you supporting me, do I have to work at all?” he said in his deep voice and stroked her head with a big palm. His voice was magnetic and charming.
He got extremely close to her, and she sensed his intoxicating scent approaching. Gazing at her pink lips, he leaned forward and bent his head down, wanting to move even closer…
