Chapter 83 - 83: 83: He snapped and pushed her down on the sofa
She didn’t need to act at all; her expression was one of complete astonishment throughout.
She felt as though she was walking on clouds, unsure how she bade the director farewell, left the set, or even got into the car.
It wasn’t until they had left the production team and returned to Dihor Garden that Rong Yan snapped back to reality.
The little guy seemed to know they had things to discuss and immediately retreated to his room upon arriving home.
Rong Yan was too astonished, not bothering with formalities, she clutched at the man’s arm as he was about to leave. “Li Shengxiao, how could you appear there today? And what about that Xida from before, he…”
“He was fired!” His response was brisk, without the slightest hesitation.
Fired… Rong Yan opened her mouth, slowly regaining her composure, “Then what is going on with you and Duidui?”
The domineering man seemed to know what she was going to ask. He undid the button at his collar, tugged at his camouflage outfit, and his thin lips tightened into a line. “You don’t need to worry, that video clip will be specially processed, no one will find out Duidui’s identity.”
“I’m not worried about that. I’m just a bit surprised.” She felt it was magical, as if the father and son pair had descended from heaven.
Little Baby and the great CEO both appearing in camouflage outfits looked so good, so good that they dazzled her eyes!
“Right.” Rong Yan suddenly remembered, grabbing his hand to stop him, “Li Shengxiao, do you really plan to appear on screen?”
Before they left, the director seemed to have mentioned editing that part to be uploaded online.
He was going to appear on screen?
To think that he, as the head of Li Group, scarcely had any photos or videos online, it was clear he didn’t like being in the spotlight!
Her fair and lovely face was in front of his own, each breath she spoke was naturally sweet, and he didn’t even realize how attractive she was!
Li Shengxiao looked into her bright eyes, their gazes locked, and he heard the sudden tension in his temples! A weight seemed to press on his chest, tearing at his soul, as a familiar pain and restlessness surged within him!
Dammit!
He clenched his fists!
He tried to restrain the impulse to pull her into his embrace, “They know to process me as a silhouette, I won’t show my face!”
He knew their secret marriage was one thing, but her not wanting to expose him was another!
The resistance she showed when he kissed her last night resurfaced in his mind.
A buzzing resonated in his temples.
His hawk-like eyes narrowed, Li Shengxiao pursed his crimson lips and quickly pulled his hand away, “I’m going to my room, we can talk later if there’s something!”
Rong Yan had already sensed something was off with him. She pulled at his hand firmly, “Wait a minute!”
She tiptoed and reached out to touch his forehead, her anxiety mounting as she asked, “Where is your medication? Where did you put it? I’ll get it for you!”
“I remember Cui Jiangjing brought you a bottle last time; you shouldn’t have finished it. Do you remember where you put it?”
Rong Yan couldn’t wait for his answer. Realizing that such emergency medication was generally kept on hand, she directly reached into the pockets of his clothing to search.
Her intentions were purely to find the medicine, but her actions felt like playing with fire!
Li Shengxiao exerted all his self-control to suppress the desperation that surged through his heart, but she was too close, too close, and those small hands were roaming all over him.
Rong Yan moved from the pocket of his camouflage jacket to his pants and finally felt a glass object. She couldn’t help but smile triumphantly, “Found it…”
Before she could finish her sentence, her arm was yanked fiercely, and the next second, she was pinned down on the living room sofa by the authoritative man towering over her—
