Chapter 156: Are You Unwilling To See Me Lose Out?

“You’re very low-key too; I couldn’t tell that you were quite bold in bed.” Song Chuyi swept her a glance.

Changqing stared at him with her face flushed red. How was she bold? He was the one who kept forcing her every time.

She ignored him and continued watching the news. Zhang Zixin could also be considered to be at the goddess level and there was often great interest in her love life, especially her previous relationship with Zuo Qian that left people with too many regrets. This time, their reconciliation made many people speculate that two hadn’t been in any other relationships since the break up because they couldn’t forget each other. 99% of the people were actually in full support of the pair’s reconciliation.

“If Teacher Zuo and Zhang Zixin reconcile, it would also be considered a beautiful thing...” Changqing lamented, even though Zhang Zixin didn’t like her.

Song Chuyi shook his head helplessly. He didn’t understand the world of the entertainment industry or the feelings of his wife who kept worrying about the industry’s matters even more.

Just then, his phone rang. He picked it up. It was a call from the Head of Division from the police division from yesterday. “Mr. Song, the other escapee from yesterday was caught. After our overnight investigation, these two were found to be related to a serial rape case. When would you be available to come to the station to testify against them?”

“I’ll head over in the afternoon,” Song Chuyi said lightly.

After he hung up, Changqing immediately asked, “Where are you going?”

“Why should I tell you?” Song Chuyi drove on while looking forward.

Changqing snorted and ignored him, continuing to look at her phone.

When she reached the broadcasting station, there were reporters crammed outside. Changqing had no choice but to direct him to drive into the carpark.

After the car was parked, Song Chuyi asked, “When are you coming home?”

“Why should I tell you?” Changqing said unreasonably, puffing her cheeks out.

Song Chuyi pinched her puffed cheeks. Her ability to bear grudges was strong indeed.

Changqing took his hand away and snorted as she gave him a look before getting off.

The moment Changqing stepped foot into her own office, Mei Zong ran over hurriedly. “Changqing, what on earth happened last night? You disappeared with CEO Song, Zhang Zixin and Zuo Qian all of a sudden. We even thought the four of you went on to do something. After all that, Zuo Qian was with Zhang Zixin. Don’t tell me you left with CEO Song?”

Changqing thought about Song Chulang’s annoying face and rolled her eyes as she said, “I know, right? At that time, CEO Song saw Zuo Qian and Zhang Zixin leaving together and his complexion was so bad that he left immediately. I was afraid CEO Song would take his anger out on our broadcasting station, so I chased him and tried talking to him. In the end, he couldn’t even be bothered with me.”

Mei Zong frowned when she heard that. “Zuo Qian is too much too. He just had to act at that time, knowing that Zhang Zixin came with CEO Song. Wasn’t that akin to slapping him in the face? Let’s just hope he didn’t offend CEO Song. I’ve never seen Song Chulang before, but I’ve heard of his ruthless ways.”

Changqing was in a daze and her heart lifted a little. “How ruthless?”

Mei Zong said softly, “I heard he used to have an assistant who secretly released information to other companies. In the end, he was castrated and thrown into jail for a lifetime.”

Changqing was flabbergasted. “I have something I cannot understand. Say, he already went to jail for a lifetime and can’t even touch woman anymore. Wasn’t castrating him unnecessary?”

“Is that what you’re concerned about?” Mei Zong was speechless. “The point is, Song Chulang doesn’t even care about the law. He does whatever he wants and nobody can do anything about him.”

Changqing nodded unconsciously. She agreed to that.

She could tell from last night.

What kind of bad luck did she have for her to get into the bad books of someone like that?

Mei Zong left after gossiping with her a while. After a while, Zheng Yan and other hosts came by subsequently.

In the end, when Wen Tong came, Changqing’s mouth was already dry from talking. “Don’t ask me anymore. I have no idea when Teacher Zuo and Zhang Zixin started their reconciliation.”

“I only wanted to give you your bag.” Wen Tong threw her bag over and pressed her lips together. She felt a little disappointed with Zuo Qian. He was obviously so in love with Changqing not long ago, yet he got caught by reporters reconciling and making out with Zhang Zixin. Men. Those who talked about love couldn’t be trusted.

Zuo Qian only arrived at the recording studio in the afternoon. He looked sapped out of energy and he didn’t even shave cleanly, looking very rugged.

Changqing was puzzled. Weren’t people supposed to be filled with sweetness when they reconciled with their old love? Why did Teacher Zuo look like he had a lot on his mind?

“Teacher Zuo...” Changqing walked over naturally and greeted him.

Who knew that Zuo Qian’s face would change drastically when he saw her. His gentle face twitched. “Changqing...”

Changqing chuckled. “Erm... I want to congratulate you, Teacher Zuo. You’re too much. if you couldn’t let go of Sister Zixin, you should’ve chased her earlier. Why did you have to drink so much yesterday?”

“It’s not...” Zuo Qian wished he could find a hole to jump in. He had never been in this sorry state before.

He was indeed drunk yesterday and thought it was Changqing. Later, he followed Zhang Zixin home muddle-headedly and they did it. When he woke up in the morning, he almost went into a mental breakdown.

On top of that, he didn’t expect that he would be caught entering and leaving Zhang Zixin’s house by a reporter.

This incident had been publicized and if he denied it, he would only be attacked by a torrent of abuse from the public.

He felt a sense of despair rising in his heart slowly and he became paler.

“Teacher Zuo, are you too tired from... last night?” Chuchu asked carefully. How intense must it have been? She only went through two rounds with Song Chuchu last night and it was still alright. It looked like Teacher Zuo and Sister Zixin had been separated for too long and they couldn’t control themselves.

Zuo Qian felt even more awkward. His face froze up.

Changqing felt she should speak less and changed the topic quickly, talking about the upcoming afternoon recording.

During rehearsal in the afternoon, Zuo Qian was out of sorts the whole time. Director Mei could only get him to rest.

After Changqing completed the rehearsal, Zhu Jia came up nosily and said, “Teacher Zuo must’ve had 300 rounds of intense battle. Look at how tired he looks—it’s as if his soul has been sucked dry by a spider spirit.”

“That’s too exaggerated.” Although Changqing felt like Zhu Jia’s description was quite possible, she didn’t feel that it was good to describe Zhang Zixin as a spider spirit.

“How is it exaggerated? Think about how long Zhang Zixin hasn’t been in a relationship? A woman in her thirties is as ferocious as a tiger and Teacher Zuo is so skinny; it’s only normal that he would be sapped dry.”

Changqing nodded thoughtfully. Would she be as ferocious as a tiger when she reached thirty?

In the office.

Zuo Qian just sat down when he received a call from Zhang Zixin’s manager. “Teacher Zuo, now that things have come to this between you and Zixin, our PR team has discussed it and concluded that right now, you and Zixin can only acknowledge this relationship in order for both of you to not have your reputations tarnished.”

Zuo Qian massaged his pulsing temples. “Get Zixin to the phone.”

The phone was silent for a minute before Zhang Zixin’s gentle voice came from the other side. “Qian... our team only did this for the benefit of both of us. I believe your boss thinks this way too.”

“You arranged for those reporters to be there, right?” Zuo Qian said coldly, “Why else would there be such a coincidence?”

“I never thought that you would think about me in this way. I left with you last night without caring about my reputation.” Zhang Zixin said softly, “Being followed by the paparazzi doesn’t only happen over a day or two. Their snooping skills are harder to guard against day after day. I have no other choice either; we can only acknowledge this relationship right now. Otherwise, your reputation in this industry will be tarnished. After a while, I’ll upload a Weibo post to acknowledge this relationship. You should repost it too.”

Zhang Zixin hung up the call and her face was full of sorrow.

Her manager walked over. “Why are you acting so silly?”

“I’ve been silly for many years.” Zhang Zixin sighed gently.

She closed her eyes. She was thinking about how he called out “Changqing, Changqing” passionately by her ear last night. A sense of sorrow spread from her heart, yet she couldn’t bear to let go of the warmth and throbbing that his body brought her.

Changqing was touching up her makeup at four in the afternoon. When she saw the Weibo post Zuo Qian reposted, she also publicly sent out her well-wishes.

Not long later, Zuo Qian entered, his face was icy cold. Changqing wanted to say a word of congratulations but didn’t dare to anymore.

At night, the recording was rough and bumpy. After the recording, there was initially a gathering but Zuo Qian didn’t go, so that was the end of it.

Changqing returned to her car and switched on her phone. She received a message from Song Chuyi: I swapped shifts with someone today, and it’s the night shift. I’m not coming home to sleep.

Changqing quickly dialled his number and was unhappy. “Why do you keep swapping shifts with people?”

“Dr. Gao, who was initially doing the night shift, had something crop up at home.” Song Chuyi said lightly, “Who doesn’t have family affairs? There’s no choice about them. You don’t have to miss me too much; I’ll treat you to a feast tomorrow night.”

“What feast?” Changqing felt a little hungry now that he mentioned a feast.

“Sausage...”

Changqing hung up straight away shyly.

When she drove past a night market, she smelled the fragrance and Changqing got out to get some barbeque. As she was buying food, she suddenly got the idea to go to the hospital to surprise Song Chuyi and also to check if he was messing around with any doctors or nurses behind her back.

Hence, she got the restaurant owner to make more food.

After the food was packed up, Changqing went straight to the hospital. The moment she stepped into the A&E building, she happened to see Song Chuchu walking into the elevator, carrying a bag of things.

Changqing ran over hurriedly and didn’t make it in time, only managing to watch the elevator go up.

She waited for a minute and went up in another elevator. When she just stepped out, she saw Song Chuyi’s back turning behind a corner.

Changqing followed him and after sticking her head in several wards, looking for him, she finally saw Song Chuyi standing in a ward, carrying a little girl of around six or seven in his arms.

The little girl had her head shaved and she was sucking on a lollipop in her mouth.

It was the first time Changqing saw Song Chuyi carrying a child like this and she slowed her pace down unconsciously when she reached the door. She heard the little girl say, “Uncle Song, my operation is the day after tomorrow. Will I die just like that? Where do dead people go? Does heaven exist? Will I go to heaven? But if I go to heaven, does that mean I won’t be able to see Mummy and Grandma again?”

“No, there’s Uncle Song around; you definitely won’t die.” Song Chuchu said gently, “You’ll only go to sleep and when you wake up from your sleep, you’ll be able to be with your mother again.”
