Chapter 51 Waking up with a Smile He Xing looked at her expression, feeling a bit worried, "What's wrong? Is today's work very troublesome?" This solemn appearance was indeed rare, as if struck by something. Jing Dan raised her eyes to look steadily at He Xing, staring for a long time until He Xing started feeling uneasy, then said, "Would you kiss someone else?" "Ah?" He Xing was dumbfounded. "Would you undress and sleep with someone else?" Jing Dan continued to ask. He Xing: "..." What is all this about, and why is she suddenly asking this question? "Well..." He Xing also began to feel awkward. She glanced at Jing Dan and said softly, "It's not impossible, depending on the person." She wanted to say that if Jing Dan was willing, she could kiss her now. However, it seemed that Jing Dan sitting across from her didn't catch the implication in her words and thought she might be willing to kiss and undress to sleep with Xu Yu, which made her even more upset! He Xing: "..." Didn't she answer? Why is Jing Dan getting angrier instead? Could it be that she couldn't accept being kissed by someone and undressing to sleep together? This, this... He Xing felt troubled. If it was like that, would they only be able to look but not touch each other for the rest of their lives? She began to worry about this matter. It wasn't necessary to do that, but since they were lovers, there would inevitably be some moments when they would want to be intimate with each other very much, right? Would they have to stop themselves at that crucial moment? He Xing pondered. Could this harm her in the long run? However, Jing Dan had no idea what He Xing was thinking at the moment. As long as she thought that He Xing might kiss and hug Xu Yu, she felt uncomfortable! Why does love exist in this world? Isn't being friends good enough? Why think about kissing and hugging! After dinner, when lying in bed, she was still angry. Looking at He Xing getting into bed, she thought, isn't it fine the way they are now? Sleeping fully clothed is also very comfortable! As He Xing got into bed, looking at Jing Dan who was staring at her so intensely, the sense of unease in her heart grew stronger. What was happening to Jing Dan today? And staring at her like this while going to sleep, it could easily lead to misunderstandings... "Sleep?" He Xing asked softly. "Oh." Jing Dan lay down, secretly resolving to keep a closer eye on He Xing in the future, ensuring she doesn't casually kiss and undress with others! As the night went on, He Xing's sense of unease grew even more intense. Was Jing Dan being too clingy now? Initially, when she got this understanding, she was quite happy, thinking they had made some progress. But as time passed, she began to feel that something was not quite right. Jing Dan's clinginess felt like she was spying on her. It was particularly strong when she met Xu Yu... "What are you looking at?" He Xing asked Jing Dan, puzzled. During the dinner with Xu Yu, Jing Dan's gaze had been fixed on her the whole time. It felt like a girlfriend's suspicious gaze... She shook her head, it must be her own misconception. Jing Dan wouldn't look at her with that kind of gaze. She probably didn't even understand the meaning of catching someone in the act? Jing Dan glanced at her, then at Xu Yu calmly eating soup beside her. At that moment, Jing Dan felt a bit redundant! "I want that!" Jing Dan pointed to the plate of braised prawns. He Xing looked at it, then at Jing Dan's expression, nodded, put on gloves, and started peeling the prawns for her. Xu Yu on the opposite side: "..." She found Jing Dan's behavior really annoying. It was fine if she followed them around while eating, but now making He Xing peel prawns for her right in front of Xu Yu? What was she trying to achieve?! Xu Yu, feeling annoyed by Jing Dan, eventually couldn't bear the meal and even became unable to stay longer. She couldn't understand what was going on with those two people across from her! Standing up abruptly, perhaps due to her sudden movement, both people across from her raised their heads to look at her. Xu Yu: "I just remembered I have something to do, so I'll leave first. Enjoy your meal." "Okay." He Xing nodded, feeling Xu Yu was acting weird too. After Xu Yu left, Jing Dan felt much happier. Eating the food that He Xing fed her, she found it even more delicious. However, He Xing started pondering over Jing Dan's recent changes. Was it a good or a bad thing? Jing Dan had become more clingy, but He Xing hadn't felt any other emotions from her... With the success of the TV dramas and movies produced by Qingzhu Entertainment one after another, the company had become a household name. Many people wanted to collaborate with them, especially after learning that Jing Dan refused any improper practices and relied solely on their skills, which further improved the company's reputation. Recently, with the arrival of spring, Qingzhu Entertainment began preparing for a new love reality show where popular couples online would be selected as guests based on user votes. The top three couples would receive invitations from the show's production team, and the deadline was on March 5th. The news of the new program "My Significant Other" sparked enthusiastic responses from netizens, who began discussing which couples should be invited to the show. --Do we still need to discuss? First choice should be your bosses! They are right in front of you and you still can't see them! Give me Spring and Jingming! --Yes! Spring and Jingming are always around you, can't you see them? Why not invite them! --Spring and Jingming, Spring and Jingming! Bring them on! Seeing these comments, the production team was speechless. The director glanced at Hu Tu quietly and asked, "Should we include Spring and Jingming?" Inviting the bosses to the show? She was a bit hesitant, after all, the bosses were truly beautiful and captivating, somewhat intimidating. Hu Tu: "..." Suddenly, she smiled. Jing Dan and He Xing appearing on a show together, especially on a love reality show, this felt... quite good, didn't it? She made a decision, "Include them!" She wanted to see how they would be like as a couple! She was inwardly laughing mischievously. Watching the two of them interact recently had left Hu Tu speechless. She never imagined He Xing would be so hesitant in pursuing someone. Could you be a bit more assertive? And as for Jing Xiaodan, she practically displayed her intentions on her face! Were you blind? At that moment, Spring and Jingming were unaware that their popularity as a couple was also being taken into account. Jing Dan was currently in her office, sipping the milk He Xing had prepared for her, watching the company's produced shows, feeling especially relaxed. When He Xing entered and saw her like this, she couldn't help but smile. The way she looked now was very much like a child who had come home from school, holding a bowl of food in front of the TV, both funny and somewhat adorable. "Aren't you afraid someone might suddenly come in like this?" He Xing raised an eyebrow, as this person usually cared a lot about her appearance in public; she never wanted to lose face. Jing Dan turned to look at He Xing and paused the TV show very seriously before saying, “No one dares to come in suddenly.” He Xing: "???" Isn't she a person? Jing Dan's gaze then fell on He Xing, silent for a moment, before adding, "Except you." He Xing fell silent. Fine. As the company's etiquette teacher now, she was not just feeding Jing Dan but was also considered an employee drawing a salary. At that moment, this employee casually picked a grape from the fruit plate next to the boss's hand, eating it while watching the computer screen together. "No wonder they specialize in investing in costume and makeup departments," He Xing sighed. The costumes and makeup in this show had been highly praised. At this remark, Jing Dan felt a little proud. Of course, since it's their company's production, it naturally had to be good. Having had enough of the rough and poorly made TV shows out there, now with the opportunity to produce their own, they had to make it top-notch! He Xing pulled over a chair, sitting beside her boss, watching their company's TV show during work hours, occasionally discussing the plot with Jing Dan. In the blink of an eye, they had finished watching an episode. When Hu Tu entered, she saw Jing Dan and He Xing sitting very close together, looking at the computer screen, and Jing Dan was eating grapes that He Xing was feeding her very naturally. Hu Tu: "...What are these two doing?!" The two turned their heads together to look at her, and then He Xing turned to Jing Dan and said with a smile, "Didn't you say no one would suddenly come in except me?" Jing Dan was speechless, looking at Hu Tu. Hu Tu felt speechless when looked in the eye by her. If she interpreted that gaze correctly, was she being reprimanded? Approaching, Hu Tu realized they were watching a TV show during work hours! Alright, alright. If the boss sets the example of slacking off, do you still have the audacity to catch those who slack off! He Xing coughed softly, stood up to pour herself a glass of water, and asked, "Is there something you need to come over for?" Hu Tu: ...Shouldn't that be a question for Jing Dan? "Oh, I just came by to see." He Xing: ...
