TISHW 153




 Chapter 153 To the limit

Jiang Yu realized that she had done something stupid for no reason. But if she pretended to wake up at this time, wouldn't she look even stupider?

While she was struggling, she heard Qin Shiyu amusedly chattered to the phone, "En, I'll tell you what to do in a moment, but this was it for now." Then she hung up the phone.

In the end, the right opportunity was missed. Jiang Yu had no choice but to continue pretending to sleep.

Soon she felt the other person's approach and secretly became more vigilant. The person who stopped in front of her made no movement at all.

After waiting for a long time, the surroundings were quiet as if no one had ever been there. But Jiang Yu was sure that Qin Shiyu was right in front of her. There was a high probability that he was holding back a bad trick up his sleeve.

This feeling of knowing that something was going to happen but not knowing what would happen was really unsettling. Jiang Yu finally couldn't stand it anymore and pretended to move to open her eyes. If he laughs, she will accept it.

However at this point Qin Shiyu sighed and seemed to be talking to himself, "If you wake up now, will you be shy if you see me like this?" 

The voice was really close.

Immediately afterwards there was a rustling sound. He was taking off his clothes?

Jiang Yu was about to open her eyes. Considering his record of leg-breaking flirtiness, she really didn't dare to bet on whether he would do something perverted again.

After hesitating, he continued, "Did you miss me so much? You actually fell asleep on the sofa in the living room waiting for me. Did you want to see me as soon as possible?"

"Is it because you almost kissed me the night before yesterday and you had insomnia all night and you didn't get a good night's sleep? So you’re catching on sleep now?"

"No, that happened the day before yesterday. So it must be because you molested yesterday and were so excited that you didn't sleep all night..."

Jiang Yu:……

She expressionlessly opened her eyes.

Then she saw Qin Shiyu sitting cross-legged on the rug of the sofa in front of her, facing her at some point. There was a thin coat thrown next to him. Obviously, he had took off his clothes just now.

At this moment, one hand was on his leg, supporting his chin, and looking at her with a smile. While the other hand was still unbuttoning his shirt. It had already unbuttoned the third button. Jiang Yu could almost see his looming muscle lines at a glance. …

Jiang Yu silently closed her eyes again.

Qin Shiyu:......

Taking in her cute reaction, he couldn't help laughing. After a while, he suppressed his mirth and pretended to be surprised, "Oh, did I wake you up?"

Jiang Yu still closed her eyes and replied expressionlessly, "I'm afraid that if I don't wake up, you will complete all the self strategies and think that I love you so much that I can't help myself."

Qin Shiyu looked at her and smiled, "Is my guess wrong?"

Jiang Yu was about to speak when she suddenly felt something approaching. The sofa beside her head sank. She became inexplicably nervous, completely not daring to open her eyes.

Soon she felt something touch her face. Her heart skipped a beat. Jiang Yu finally opened her eyes.

However, she saw Qin Shiyu still sitting on the rug and his elbow was lifted from his own leg to the sofa beside her head, while his other hand was holding something like a pendant, dangling in front of her. It was this that touched her face. 

Jiang Yu tilted her head back and saw clearly that the trinket was a creamy yellow coffee, er, milk tea cup pendant.

Qin Shiyu shook the small pendant and grinned at her, "A gift."

Because he was so close, Jiang Yu could clearly see the small red lip print on the coffee cup. It was no longer painted with a red pen like the one he sent in the photo, but was instead engraved, looking more realistic and beautiful. There were clear lip lines, but the overall appearance was like residual prints. This made people even more thought-provoking.

Jiang Yu stared at him expressionlessly. Didn't he find everything in this world boring not long ago? But after such a busy week, he was still pinned on making this...

Qin Shiyu had already picked up his mobile phone and showed her the same pendant on it, "How is it? Do you like it?"

Jiang Yu reached out to hold the pendant in front of her and put it away, but said, "I don't like it."

Qin Shiyu looked at her reddish cheeks and couldn't resist stretching out his index finger to lightly trace it, "Then I'll give you a photo of the telephone pole next time?"

Jiang Yu subconsciously rubbed her face. After hearing his words, she moved to the sofa in fear, expressing that she wanted to stay away from this pervert.

Qin Shiyu burst into laughter, but he continued to approach with his arms. His head rested on the sofa, looking at her and smiling, "Before leaving, didn’t we say that you can give me the answer when we meet again? Do you want to tell me now?"

Jiang Yu:……

It was obviously him who said that he hoped for her to give an answer when they meet again. Why did he put it this way, making it seem that she couldn't wait to give him the answer.

Jiang Yu turned her head, facing the ceiling without looking at him, and harrumphed, "Reject."

Qin Shiyu suddenly raised his arms and leaned closer. His slender figure took full advantage at this moment and he easily got into her vision. He was so close that Jiang Yu was trapped in a corner of the sofa. There was nowhere to hide. Seeing him show off his handsome face that was still magnifying, she didn’t dare to breath.

It wasn't until she almost felt his breathing that Qin Shiyu stopped. The two remained motionless for several seconds. Qin Shiyu said with regret, "Why don't you fight back this time?"

Jiang Yu:……

She instantly understood what he meant. Was he expecting her to take the initiative to kiss him when infuriated? What a beautiful thought.

Jiang Yu stretched out her arm with a sullen face, put her index finger on his shoulder, and slowly pushed him away. Qin Shiyu complied, slowly retreated to the edge of the sofa, looked down at her hand, and asked with a meaningful smile, "How does it feel?"

Jiang Yu:……

As she prepared to take back her hand, she said calmly, "So-so."

Upon hearing this, Qin Shiyu raised his eyebrows, and Jiang Yu's wrist was grabbed.

Jiang Yu halted. Qin Shiyu’s gaze pinned on her, however his big hand slowly moved down with hers. Jiang Yu's fingers slowly moved from his shoulders to his strong chest. The force wasn't heavy, just ever so light. In the middle, it passed by the edge of the shirt he had unbuttoned and her fingertips seemed to touch a different texture to the clothes...

Out of her control, Jiang Yu's eyes followed and stopped at the edge of the shirt. In fact, he didn't unbutton many buttons. When he was sitting with his shoulders hunched, she couldn't see anything. There was another piece inside, a black vest. But this action was inexplicably full of tension. At this time, he only needed to push her wrist a little and her hand could easily reach in...

Qin Shiyu watched her, his throat was slightly rolled, and his voice was a little hoarse, "Then you didn't touch the right place. This wasn't the place you touched last time."

Jiang Yu followed his rolling Adam's apple and swallowed and her fingers unconsciously curled up.

When Qin Shiyu saw this, he looked at her and grinned, "How is it? Do you want to continue?" 

As he said this, he made a gesture with his hand to let her hand continue to move forward.

Jiang Yu pursed her lips and suddenly stretched out her fingers to get in. This time, her fingertips came into firm contact with the smooth and warm skin, even though it was only a little bit.

Both of them were shocked. Qin Shiyu gaped at her, his chest rising and falling quite apparently. Jiang Yu wasn't much better, feeling like her whole body was on fire.

Qin Shiyu's eyes seemed to be turbulent like the sea. He tightened his palms and pinched her wrists while suppressing a chuckle, "This isn't the answer of rejection. Jiang Yu, are you trying to be a rogue?"

Jiang Yu's fingers had already curled up in shyness. She lowered her eyelids and whispered, "Who said this is an answer?"

Qin Shiyu was stunned for a moment. Then he heard her continue, "Can't it be a process?"

She raised her eyelids. Although she was shy, she still met his gaze without evading it, "When you ask a question, there must be a process of solving the problem before you can get the answer, right?"

"Problem-solving process?" A smile slowly crept up Qin Shiyu's face. He looked at her, "Our top student still needs a process to solve problems? Don't you always know the answer when you see the question."

Jiang Yu stared at him, "That's for simple questions. When you encounter a precious question, even if you know the answer at the beginning, you still want to solve it carefully. Though the answer is important, the process is equally important."

Qin Shiyu said that when he encountered something, he naturally knew what to do to achieve his goal. In fact, she was similar. Since she started studying, she could quickly get the solution to every question or matter she encountered.

The same with this matter. The moment Qin Shiyu confessed, she knew the answer.

If the other person was an ordinary person, saying "like" cannot easily impress her.

Because she knew that it was the emotion that naturally arose after he met someone. Afterward, it was the want to obtain pleasure under the influence of hormones and obeying his instinct. This hormone will appear when he meets you. Later, it will occur when he meets another. Even if he doesn't meet anyone else, you will be put on a scale to make a choice one day when his interests are weighed in.

Jiang Yu clearly knew that this was human nature and cannot be forced. That was why if she could really meet someone who can make her happy, she will not mind enjoying the moment. Then separate naturally when the passion fades and give up gracefully. But she probably couldn't easily say she liked someone.

Qin Shiyu was probably about the same as her. The fact that he could grow up like this after encountering so many misfortunes and under the pressure of the Qin Family. It showed his strength and will. She believed that he must have struggled when he realized he fell in love with her. He clearly knew the troubles and difficulties he would face after choosing her. But after understanding all this, he still firmly chose to catch her when it came to rational gains or catching her immediately. After thousands of sails, what was washed left behind was determination. This meant that this was one of the most precious choices in his life.

How could this kind of preciousness not make people’s hearts move?

So she knew the answer to this question from the beginning: she couldn't escape the firm choice made by this charming man.

It was just that he was too arrogant at the time. This made her unwilling to give in. Of course, she did enjoy the process of getting the answer, wickedly seeing him restraining himself for her and getting muddled for her...

Qin Shiyu stared at her intently. There was no desire or teasing in his eyes. He looked at her seriously. He understood her and she understood him. This knowledge made him feel as if he was floating in the clouds, full of pleasure.

After a while, he stretched out his long arm, swept Jiang Yu off the sofa, and placed her on his lap. Behind Jiang Yu was the sofa, and in front of her was him.

This gesture was a bit intimate. This made Jiang Yu slightly self conscious. She put her hand on his chest and leaned back. Qin Shiyu chased after her and lightly wrapped around her back, "Jiang Yu."

His tone was full of joy. Being called, Jiang Yu's heart felt sweet. So instead of retreating, she gently raised her arm and put it on his shoulder and responded softly, "En."

There was a chuckle in her ears. Jiang Yu couldn't help but grin along. She put her chin on his shoulder. The two of them hugged each other in silence. Even if they didn't say anything or do anything, they still felt very happy.

It was unknown how much time passed. Qin Shiyu raised his hand, grabbed her wrist and put it on his chest again, "I think you're right. You can solve this problem slowly."

Jiang Yu looked at the hand placed on the buttons of his shirt:...

She discovered that this man couldn’t remain behaved for two minutes. Could solving problems and unbuttoning buttons be the same thing?

Want to get a reaction from her? Jiang Yu simply reached out and buttoned up all his buttons, "En, I'll take my time." 

Did he think she would use the same move a second time? Dreaming him could bear with it! She smiled provocatively, "After all, it's fun."

Seeing her grin, Qin Shiyu made no comment.

After buttoning the top button for him, Jiang Yu noticed that the eyes wandering on her face finally settled on her lips. She pursed her lips and looked back with confidence, "There is a difference between the process and getting the answer, right?"

​Some things can only be done if you get the answer, such as...

Jiang Yu's eyes fell on his thin lips...

Qin Shiyu put the tip of his tongue against the back of his upper teeth and licked it vigorously. He suddenly smiled wickedly and leaned closer to her.

Startled, Jiang Yu closed her eyes, but at the same time she was sure in her heart that he would not do anything except the initial verbal teasing. Before he got her answer, he even hugged her like a gentleman. No need to say about the rest...

Then she felt the warm breath on the side of her neck, and heard him whisper, "Since the answer was known,, the answer can actually be used for verification in the process of solving the problem, right?"

He was probably really close to her. When he spoke, Jiang Yu could not only clearly feel his breath, but the movement of his lips. She couldn't help but swallow her saliva, raised her head and wanted to lean back.

Qin Shiyu, who originally wanted to scare her, suddenly darkened his eyes. She didn't know that when she looked up, her long and fragile neck was so attractive like a flower beckoning one to pick it. As long as he moved down a little bit...

Jiang Yu felt something hot and soft pressing gently on the side of her neck. She couldn't help but widen her eyes. At that moment, her body seemed to be hit by electricity, numb and trembling. All the strength in her body was taken away in an instant. …

Her body went limp uncontrollably. Then she was supported by a big hand and gently pressed into his broad arms. Someone chuckled hoarsely above her head, "This method of solving problems is very interesting, you can try it." .”

TISHW 152

Hi Readers, good news. TISHW is complete on Patreon. So didn't expect it to happen so soon. Right now, I have changed the poll from side project to main project. Deadline 30th June. For now, I'll release teasers and finish WLAEF side stories.




 Chapter 152 To the limit


The group of people successfully escaped from the secret passage, and the recording officially ended.

As soon as the director shouted ‘CUT!’, Jian Cang complained bitterly, "Waa, director, you are going too far. With today's theme, you can still come up with such tricks. So bad!" 

He looked at Shu Hua and remarked, "Look, our Huahua is so scared that her face turned red!"

Shouldn’t one’s face turn pale after being frightened? Confused, Jiang Yu turned around to see Shu Hua covering her face with her hands as her eyes were wandering. Next to her, Ye Yuanyu looked very cold. Of course, he was usually like this. But when he was with them, he was more relaxed. Especially in front of Shu Hua, he was even a little childish. This reaction was obviously abnormal.

While Jiang Yu was eating melon, Jian Cang seemed to have found some more powerful evidence, "Look, even Elder Sister Yu's face turned red with fear!"

Jiang Yu paused and immediately felt the eyes of everyone, especially someone next to her. Her hands behind her back and silently curled up as she tried to stay calm, "En, I'm very scared."

Qin Shiyu chuckled and agreed meaningfully, "It's quite scary."

Jian Cang was shocked, "Elder Brother Yu, you were also afraid?"

Qin Shiyu touched his chest and nodded, "I feel like I was molested."

Jiang Yu:……

Jian Cang paused, rubbed his face and seriously stated, "Yes, I was molested too. A skeleton in the middle suddenly pounced on me and kissed me on the face." 

Shu Hua quickly raised her hand, "Me too, something touched my head with its feet!"

Xiang Chen smiled, "It's true, someone had even hugged my leg."

Everyone laughed. Qin Shiyu teasingly looked at Jiang Yu, but Jiang Yu still pretended not to see anything.

After laughing, everyone took the program team's minibus back to the hotel. Qin Shiyu said that he couldn't join them, "I have other things to do, see you next week."

Jiang Yu was stunned for a moment before realizing that he had been away for a week and must have had a lot of work piled up.

Still, understanding was a different matter. Her heart couldn't help but be a little disappointed. Since he came back, the two of them haven't had a proper chat with each other. When she discovered that once one’s heart moved, one will become dramatic. In the past it was always like this, but now she wasn't used to it.

As soon as she got in the car, she received the message of his reporting: 【Trying to get home tomorrow. Must trouble you to wait. 】

When Jiang Yu saw his provocation, she stopped being disappointed. She lowered her head and typed: 【Who is waiting for you? It doesn't matter if you don't come back. 】

Qin Shiyu didn't reply to her content, instead he asked:  【Are you satisfied with the feel?"】

Jiang Yu:……

She couldn't help but curl her fingers again. The strong and elastic touch, as well as the warmth coming from through the shirt... were actually quite good.

It went without saying she refused to admit it. She acted as if she had no idea what he was talking about: 【What feel? 】

Qin Shiyu replied: 【The feel of the clothes. I think the shirts prepared by the program team are made of good material. Can buy a dozen back to wear. 】

Jiang Yu was amused. The program crew's clothes couldn't be compared to his custom-made clothes.

Jian Cang, who was behind her, was very excited while holding his cell phone, "Wow, Elder Brother Yu is so popular right now. He is everywhere in the spotlight."

Jiang Yu opened Weibo after hearing this. Qin Shiyu's current traffic hadn’t yet reached its peak. After 'The Devil's Hour' officially completes its fermentation, his traffic will experience a spurt of growth. This will only happen in the next two weeks.

Still, his current traffic was very impressive. The live broadcast of 'All Rounder 3' had ended. Although the livestream hadn’t been generated yet, various screenshots and animations were already available. The majority of the content was Qin Shiyu's. The most popular content of him was the one where he jumped from the middle of the stair railing.

Fans were screaming below and had attracted a lot of passers-by. After all, this wasn't a drama. There were no special effects or protective measures and he did it with ease.

Jiang Yu saw it from the back at that time. But this time it looked even more handsome from the front.

Even Ye Yuanyu and the other boys were fascinated. Xiang Chen remarked, "His physical fitness and body coordination are really amazing. He must have trained, right?"

Jian Cang said, "He must have. I could tell from the last time he dealt with Fu Mingchuan. Oh, my Elder Brother Yu is so handsome and smart, with good physical fitness, and good acting skills. I guess he will become a top star soon."

The group was very happy for him.

Shu Hua suddenly frowned as she scrolled her phone, "Does everyone encounter this kind of strange fans when they become popular?"

Ye Yuanyu leaned over and asked, "What's wrong?"

Shu Hua showed her phone to them. She was looking at another picture that was widely circulated. It was the scene where Qin Shiyu inadvertently held Jiang Yu in his arms. The cameraman was very good at finding angles, while the netizens were very good at taking screenshots. A handsome young man in a white shirt was leaning over with his arm propped up, looking down at the well-behaved girl sitting on the chair. The girl was looking up at him. Their eyes met. The young man had a smile on his lips, while the girl's eyes were bright. The atmosphere seemed to be filled with pink bubbles. On its own, one would have thought it was a classic scene from an idol drama.

CP fans gathered here and screamed, saying they were going to faint from the sweetness.

However, Shu Hua scrolled down. Amidst the content about everyone having a candy party together, different voices emerged:

【Photos and screenshots are really scary. CP fans is best at telling stories from pictures. 】

……

【Why do some people think Jiang Yu is worthy of my Elder Brother Yu? 】

【The looks are so so and IQ is questionable. The Film Academy of City B and the Guanghua Institute of Technology of University B aren’t on the same level at all. As for career, haha. From the first episode of 'All Rounder 3' till now, she was leeching off Qin Shiyu’s popularity. Ye Yuanyu, Xiang Chen, and Jian Cang all have their own jobs, so I won't say anything as their development direction isn't in the entertainment industry. Even Shu Hua had accepted advertisements. I heard that she even auditioned everywhere. And Jiang Yu is an acting major student? There has been no movement at all so far. Does she plan to rely on Qin Shiyu to spend her whole life as a CP to gain traffic? 】

【Indeed. Even an ordinary person would have improved a bit, right? 】

……

【Actually, her starting point is really good. But Qin Shiyu had taken off now, while she is still standing still. You should keep a low profile while shipping CP and don't affect our Elder Brother Yu's future development. 】

……

Jian Cang was stunned when he saw it, "Is this the legendary toxic mono-fan?"

Xiang Chen said, "It’s inevitable when being a celebrity and idol." 

He looked at Jiang Yu, "How are you? If you can’t handle it, talk to Qin Shiyu next time. Since you don't plan to develop in the entertainment industry, avoid it."

Jiang Yu responded, "It doesn't matter. Let alone idols and celebrities, even us ordinary people will have a few people who hate us. Only by caring about them can we give them face."

Shu Hua said, "Yes, the highest level of counterattack is to completely ignore them. They don't deserve our anger."

Jian Cang said, "Let alone Elder Brother Yu, even I have a lot of anti-fans. It's true that you can’t handle them all. The more I give them attention, the more they bounce."

Ye Yuanyu agreed, "We all have anti-fans and there will be people who hate you for no reason."

So this wasn't a big deal. They all had open-minded personalities. Since Jiang Yu herself didn't care, they all put the matter to the back of their mind. After finishing browsing Qin Shiyu's content, they started to swipe through other people's content, appreciate everyone's ‘heroic appearance’ from the perspective of the camera, tease each other and laugh, and have a happy journey.

Jiang Yu didn't take this matter to heart at all. While the matter of Qin Shiyu coming home was more concerning to her. This was the first time the two of them had to be alone at home after he confessed his love. It felt very different from before... …

The next morning, she woke up at around six o'clock. She couldn't sleep after that, so she simply got up, took a shower, put on a facial mask, and for once she went out on full skin care routine. Looking at the girl with full of smiles in the mirror, she irritatedly stretched out her hand to block it. She couldn't be so hopeless. She had to hold on for a few more days.

After tidying up, she turned around and searched in the closet for a long time. Finally, she found a pair of cotton home clothes that weren’t so formal but not particularly casual and put them on. Looking at her closet again, she felt that there seemed to be a little clothes...

After having a simple breakfast and ordering some groceries online, Jiang Yu nestled on the sofa and started shopping online. As she was doing so, her phone rang. It was a hot search alert for her or Qin Shiyu.

Jiang Yu originally thought it was Qin Shiyu. After all, 'The Devil's Hour' will officially end tonight. The response last night was already very strong. Qin Shiyu probably been on trending searches every day these days.

After opening the results, she found that there were actually four people on the hot search. Yes, four people. #Dismantling Double A Couple CP# was hanging on the barely seeable tail. While #Qin Group’s heir and Sun Lingqian jointly participating in the "Perfect Holiday" topic rose rapidly.

Jiang Yu blinked. First, she went with the flow of Qin Luochuan and Sun Lingqian's topic to the official Weibo of 'Perfect Holiday' and found that they had officially announced the guests of the next episode. In addition to two pairs of resident entertainment stars, there was Qin Luochuan and Sun Lingqian. As for Qin Shiyu and Jiang Yu, the program team had communicated with them before that the two would appear as mysterious guests, so they weren’t tagged.

Therefore, in the pictures accompanying the official notice, except for the two black silhouettes representing her and Qin Shiyu, the others were photos of several official stars. In one of the photos, a gentle and handsome young man and Sun Lingqian were wearing formal dresses, standing together with champagne in hands, their eyes facing each other, and looking somewhat intimate.

As 'The Devil's Hour' came to an end, although Sun Lingqian's popularity couldn’t compare with Qin Shiyu’s, it wasn't low either. Especially some time ago, she and Qin Shiyu gave netizens a giant cliche gossip and she got ridiculed with no skin spared. The moment she appeared, she aroused everyone's interest. Especially after the identity of Qin Luochuan beside her was made public. Her fans were quite proud and wildly mocked Jiang Yu and Qin Shiyu below. This led to the birth of the topic between them.

Jiang Yu didn't read the comments. She was very curious as to why Qin Luochuan and Sun Lingqian got together and even participated in 'Perfect Holiday'. What did they want to do?

Did Qin Shiyu know about this?

Jiang Yu picked up the phone. There was no new information in Qin Shiyu's dialog box. He must be busy. How about asking Xu Lehua? Just as she was hesitating, there was a sudden sound of unlocking the door. Jiang Yu realized something. This man was doing a surprise attack again!

She looked around, quickly picked up the pillow and directly plopped on the sofa, and started pretending to sleep.

The door opened the next second. As expected, Jiang Yu heard Qin Shiyu's voice. He seemed to be on the phone, "En, let's keep an eye on the trend of public opinion first..." 

At this point, there was an obvious laugh. He said to the phone, "Oh, I'm not laughing at anything. I'm happy to be home."

Jiang Yu:……

She inexplicably felt that he was laughing at her. Then she later realized that she seemed to have done something stupid. So, why did she pretend to be asleep out of the blue? !

TISHW 151




Chapter 151 To the limit 

Jiang Yu concluded that Qin Shiyu did it on purpose, but the audience didn't care. Regardless of whether it was intentional or not, CP fans went crazy:

【Holy sh*t, sh*t, double A couple is throwing sugar again! 】

【Ahhhh, transmigrated into Jiang Yu’s body. Qin Shiyu's table kabedon! 】

【My girlish heart is about to burst. Even the idol dramas I've seen aren’t as cool! 】

【Idol drama is staged. This may be true! Ahhhhh! 】

【God Yu's double standards. When treating Shu Hua: make way; when treat Jiang Yu: get closer to wifey. 】

【Before, I only knew that Qin Shiyu was tall and didn’t have much idea about it through the camera. But when he surrounds Jiang Yu like this...]

【Ahhhhh, I'm going to die! The shoulders are so broad, the waist is so thin, and the muscles on the forearms are... drooling. 】

【If I’m Jiang Yu, I will be so happy that I fainted. 】

【Even though I’m not Jiang Yu, I’m fainting with happiness. Who understands? It’s so sweet! 】

【ROFL, not even looking at the question. My eyes are occupied by the appearance, while my mind is full of sweetness. What is the question? Is it important? 】

【Hahaha, I originally thought that Qin Shiyu wasn't in the right state today and this episode would continue to advance with high spec. Unforeseen, it’s still my favorite romance drama. 】

Jiang Yu realized that even with a cold and serious persona, Qin Shiyu could still be charming.

After that, she secretly increased her vigilance. However, Qin Shiyu made no unnecessary moves. If she hadn't actually seen him snickering, Jiang Yu would have thought that his behavior now was all unconscious.

However, her mood wasn't affected for long. Their recording for this episode was in an office building. Although it wasn't a horror theme and there were no monsters, there were ‘criminals’ chasing and rounding them up. They had to be highly vigilant to guard against being discovered by them. Once discovered, they had to deal with their investigation for undercovers. Every obstacle was full of thrills. Jiang Yu quickly became immersed in it like everyone else.

After three-four hours, they obtained all the criminal evidence. In the end, they only needed to find the password of the top core person before they could escape.

However, there were a few clues to the password and they needed to search for information separately.

By this time, their undercover identities had been completely exposed. The criminal gang launched a comprehensive roundup against them.

The program welcomed the most exciting moment. Jiang Yu wasn't good at physical fitness, so she relied on memorizing the topographic map to crawl around in every corner. Others became lively. Shu Hua was very strong and directly pushed off the person who caught her toward those following. Jiang Yu was shocked when she saw it while hiding behind the glass door.

The four boys each showed their magical powers. Jian Cang moved flexibly, dodging and escaping; Xiang Chen carefully observed, though he wasn't fast, he was steady enough; Ye Yuanyu was fast and nimble. There was no need to mention Qin Shiyu, who was being chased. After entering the stairwell and catching a glimpse of Jiang Yu hiding behind the trash can, his steps that were going to run up changed direction and started running down.

Jiang Yu understood that he was trying to distract her pursuers. If he ran up, the pursuers would easily find the corner where she was hiding.

However, Qin Shiyu, who was running down, soon encountered a problem. When he reached the middle of the stairs, someone blocked him from below. He was attacked from both sides in an instant, leaving him with nowhere to go. Jiang Yu couldn't help but sweat for him, thinking that both of them would probably be finished, but in the end, she saw him leaning sideways with his arms on the handrail of the stairs, jumping directly from one floor to the next! In an instant, he was behind the people blocking the road.

Jiang Yu was stunned by his handsomeness. Truly stunned.

Today they were all dressed in professional attire. His white shirt tucked into black trousers already made him look slender and his legs long. The straight tie he wore made him look like a gentle and well-mannered elite. But that crisp jump just now had the pants wrapping the long legs and the veins exposed on the forearms with half-rolled sleeves. It gave people a strong sense of contrast. Jiang Yu could imagine the audience screaming in the barrage.

In fact, her guess was pretty good. In this episode, everyone contributed all kinds of hilarious and high-spec moments. Especially when Qin Shiyu jumped, the screen was filled with ‘Ahhhhh’ and ‘So handsome’.

In the end, the six people finally collected the password clues. After meeting in the storage room that had been arranged to meet in advance, everyone took a breather and rested. Jiang Yu, who had been hiding, was responsible for solving the question. Very naturally, Qin Shiyu walked toward her. After a lot of running and chasing, his clothes were no longer straight. His shirt collar was unbuttoned three times, his black tie hung loosely around his neck, and his shirt cuffs were rolled up to his elbows. His whole person exuded an uninhibited sexiness. .

Jiang Yu couldn't help but take another look. But when she looked over again, he coughed slightly and raised his hand to start buttoning the collar, as if he was worried about being molested by her eyes...

Jiang Yu:……

After Qin Shiyu buttoned up his shirt and put down his shirt sleeves, looking like a model of male virtue, he approached her seriously to analyze the clues.

Jiang Yu directly squatted on the ground.

Qin Shiyu:......

Jiang Yu directly placed the puzzle on the ground between the two of them. No matter whether he was standing, leaning over, or squatting like her, with the size of the puzzle, he could definitely maintain a polite distance.

Qin Shiyu’s expression didn't show anything strange. He was seriously solving the puzzle. However, when no one was paying attention, he still glanced at her with a half-smile. Jiang Yu pretended not to see it.

With the two brain power kings taking action, it didn't take long to solve the puzzle. Qin Shiyu said, "There are two passwords, one is the entrance to the secret passage, and the other is the exit of the secret passage."

Ye Yuanyu looked at the map, "This secret passage is fifty meters long."

Xiang Chen raised his head and leaned against the door and smiled, "Fifty meters away, there are probably more exciting things waiting for us."

Jian Cang tugged on his sweaty shirt, "As long as we don't get chased, it’s fine. I really can't run anymore."

Ye Yuanyu teased, "What about changing to a ghost?"

Shu Hua glared at him, "Don't jinx it."

Ye Yuanyu glanced at her, covered his clothes with his hands and said emotionlessly, "If it’s ghosts. I should be more afraid."

Shu Hua:......

She fumed out, "Then you have to protect yourself."

Everyone watched the two of them bickering, feeling that these were Ye Yuanyu's words to tease Shu Hua. After all, there was no way that the theme of an office building would have any scary scenes.

However, the main focus of the program was probably a surprise. When the six of them escaped the investigation, they reached the entrance of the secret passage. The entrance opened according to the first password and the alarm sounded in an instant. All the pursuers were rushing over.

The group dashed into the secret passage at once. When they turned sharply into a corridor, they bumped into a bunch of hanging skeletons. Jian Cang ran too fast and didn't notice. His head even touched the foot of one of them and he got frightened until almost kneeling down. His voice changed in shock, "Waa!! What is going on?!"

Shu Hua screamed in fright. Just as Jiang Yu looked up, her vision suddenly went dark. All the lights in the corridor went out. She couldn't see her fingers in an instant.

Jian Cang yelled along with Shu Hua. Xiang Chen was briefly startled. Jiang Yu pursed her lips and immediately turned around. She waved her hand forward to find a wall to lean against. A big hand grabbed her wrist first.

Jiang Yu paused and immediately knew who the other party was. Sure enough, she heard Qin Shiyu's voice, "Here." As he said, he led her a few steps to the side, "Okay."

Jiang Yu stood still and could clearly feel the strong presence of the man behind her. Just standing in front of him, Jiang Yu's heart instantly calmed down.

The NPC's creepy laughter sounded outside, "Did they escape into a secret passage? There's no need to chase them. They don't have the password and can't get out. It just so happens that the boss liked to throw disobedient people in there. It will be easier since they went in by themselves. After a while, turn on the vacuum pump. If they can't find the exit in ten minutes, they will die."

Jian Cang trembled when he heard this, "Wow, so is this the place where this criminal gang kills people and silences them?"

Shu Hua said, "Please, stop talking. What are we going to do now? We have to leave here within ten minutes."

Ye Yuanyu said, "Then let's move forward in the dark." 

He paused, "Please loosen your grip a little, otherwise we will most likely end up drying here like our predecessors above."

Everyone was amused by him. Shu Hua laughed, "If you hang up there, I won't be afraid."

"Of course you aren't afraid. We’ll be hanging together and be the same."

As the two bickered, everyone soon relaxed. Then they heard a sound and felt the air flow around them. Apparently the ‘vacuum pump’ was turned on. They must hurry up.

Ye Yuanyu took the lead. The others followed him and slowly walked out in the dark.

Qin Shiyu said to Jiang Yu, "I'll go ahead and warn you if I encounter anything."

Jiang Yu responded and the two of them changed positions.

Qin Shiyu walked in front, while she latched onto his shirt to follow. Occasionally, he would remind her, "Go to the right."

"Lower your head."

"Lift your feet."

Because of his warning, Jiang Yu no longer felt scared even if she encountered something.

Just grabbing his clothes and moving forward, Jiang Yu somehow remembered the dark and terrifying scenes she encountered during previous recordings.

Especially the first time, because she was too scared, she accidentally grabbed his clothes. The situation was very similar to now. But at that time, she secretly cried out that she was unlucky. And because there was really no one else, she could only keep her heart raised. She was thinking that if he showed a little bit of disdain, she would let go immediately. Fortunately, he was a gentleman enough and didn't say anything. He even seamlessly helped her in the classroom afterward.

In the two times in that episode, he was probably being kind-hearted. Looking back at the vampire castle episode now, he was already protecting her and all his actions were full of restraint.

Of course, she was actually restraining herself at that time, restraining herself to keep a distance from him as much as possible and not to overstep the rules. After all, she would have to leave sooner or later.

But now……

"There seems to be something under the feet. Take a step." Qin Shiyu's voice came from the front. Jiang Yu took a big step obediently. Afterward, she entered directly into someone's embrace.

He suddenly stopped and turned around.

At the same time, strong palms supported her arms. Qin Shiyu's voice sounded from above her head, "Are you okay? There seemed to be something in front."

He had a concerned tone, but Jiang Yu could hear a hint of a mirth that wasn't easy to detect. The feeling of her arm being lightly tickled by the other's thumb proved that this guy did it on purpose.

To outsiders, this posture might not be called ambiguous. After all, accidental touches like this were inevitable in variety shows, but this man could use it to tease her.

Jiang Yu narrowed her eyes and pretended to be in shock. She put her other hand directly on his chest to try to stabilize her body and then gently pinched it without leaving any trace.

Qin Shiyu:......

Feeling the frozen body in front of her, Jiang Yu lowered her head and snickered.

Now, she probably won’t leave. It was a good feeling to have nothing to fear.

TISHW 150




 Chapter 150 To the limit

Qin Shiyu didn't arrive on time. There were always accidents on long-distance flights. During the transfer, a certain flight was delayed, causing his original plan to arrive in City C at 6 pm on Friday to be delayed.

Fortunately, the change was successful and he transferred to the last flight. Qin Shiyu called Jiang Yu, saying he would arrive before midnight.

The program team also received the news. Everyone could finally rest in peace.

Jiang Yu was lying on the bed but couldn't sleep. So she simply turned on her tablet to watch the previous episodes of 'Perfect Holiday' and learn about the recording rules.

A little before midnight, a message from Qin Shiyu finally popped up on the phone: 【I arrived. 】

Jiang Yu was completely relieved at this moment, thinking that he had landed at the airport, and replied: "It’s good that you arrived. Taking a taxi or Xiao Ding picking you up?" 】

As soon as the message was sent, his call came in. Jiang Yu glanced at Shu Hua, who was already asleep on the bed next to her. After muting her phone, she quietly walked out the door before picking up. Qin Shiyu said, "Came out from the room?"

Since she took so long to answer, Jiang Yu wasn't surprised that he could guess it and whispered, "Shu Hua has already fallen asleep."

As she talked, she walked toward the quieter stairwell. After all, the hotel was generally soundproofed and she was afraid of disturbing others' rest.

As soon as she pushed open the nearest stairwell fire door, she heard a smiling voice, "But you're not asleep yet. Are you waiting for me?"

The voice didn't come from the mobile phone. Jiang Yu stared blankly at the man who was lolling against the handrail of the stairs and holding up the phone. The nearly forty hours of travel had made him a little disheveled. There was an obvious exhaustion on his handsome face. But his eyes were astonishingly bright when he looked at her, "I'm back."

Jiang Yu lowered her head, hung up the phone, and then took two more steps into the stairwell. The moment the fire door closed, she fell directly into the familiar arms.

Unlike the subtle teasing, his hug was still gentlemanly. Jiang Yu stood still and asked, "I thought you arrived at the airport."

The twinkle in Qin Shiyu's eyes grew brighter. She probably didn't know that the more nervous she became, the calmer she appeared. He couldn't help but tighten his arms a little, "I wanted to call you as soon as I got off the plane, but was worried of disturbing you if you were asleep."

Jiang Yu exposed his scheming, "Then you aren't afraid of disturbing me now?"

Qin Shiyu smiled, "En, if I disturb you as soon as I land on the ground, you can go to sleep as soon as you feel relieved."

"But disturbing you, I might still have a chance to meet you in person." He let go of her slightly and looked down at the stars in her eyes, "Actually, my luck is pretty good." 

She was waiting for him.

Jiang Yu lowered her eyes and avoided his gaze, refusing to admit it, "I'm used to going to bed late."

Qin Shiyu went along with it, "En, fortunately you have this good habit."

Jiang Yu:……

It was this virtue that made her reluctant to agree to him easily.

Jiang Yu said expressionlessly, "Have I ever said that my ideal type was a cold and proper man?"

Qin Shiyu immediately became serious, "Okay, I'm just here to see you. Quickly go back and rest. We have to get up early tomorrow."

Jiang Yu finally regained control. The corners of her lips raised proudly, "Good night then."

"Good night." After Qin Shiyu said it, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly opened his arms toward Jiang Yu, "A proper man must stick to his word."

Jiang Yu was perplexed.

Qin Shiyu had a solemn face and said coldly, "Hug you tight."

Jiang Yu:……

She narrowed her eyes. In a moment of anger and giving in to the impulse, she suddenly stretched out her hand to grab his T-shirt and approached closer to his face.

As expected, Qin Shiyu froze, as if he were petrified. Jiang Yu couldn't even feel his breathing. She chuckled lightly, raised her head and whispered in his ear, "I refuse."

After saying that, she imitated his carefreeness and turned around to walk out calmly. There was no movement behind her even when she opened the fire door. She was really curious and pretended to casually turn around. She saw Qin Shiyu staring at her with burning eyes. Seeing her turning her head around, he moved his feet toward her.

Jiang Yu swung her leg and ran, not looking back until she reached the door of the room. She found that he hadn’t chased her, but was leaning against the fire door in the stairwell and looking at her with a dangerous glint in his eyes.

She quickly entered the room.

It wasn't until she disappeared from the corridor that Qin Shiyu leaned his head against the wall and exhaled a long breath. Feeling the violent heartbeat and the heat on his face, he raised his hands to cover his eyes and couldn't help but laugh. No wonder it was her……

At around seven o'clock the next morning, everyone went to the dressing room to do their makeup and hair as usual. Jiang Yu yawned and walked in. She saw Qin Shiyu who had already sat down on the makeup chair. His eyes met hers almost instantly.

Jiang Yu immediately turned around to talk to Shu Hua and pretended not to notice.

Shu Hua was surprised, "Why did God Yu come so early? You probably went to bed quite late last night, right?"

Qin Shiyu glanced at Jiang Yu and sighed helplessly, "En, I almost didn't sleep all night."

Jiang Yu felt a little guilty for no reason. Then she heard Shu Hua ask, "What's wrong? Are you suffering from insomnia too?"

Qin Shiyu paused and said calmly, "Why, who else had insomnia?"

Jiang Yu had a bad intuition and pulled Shu Hua away, "Hurry up, don't make the teacher wait. Sit down first and then talk."

Shu Hua responded, "En, okay. You can nap while the makeup is put on. If not, you'll have no energy while recording."

Jiang Yu:……

She could almost feel Qin Shiyu's eyes on her. She pretended not to know and calmly sat down opposite him. The makeup mirror in the middle completely covered both of them. No one could see the other. Then she breathed a sigh of relief.

After returning to the room last night, she belatedly realized what she had done. On the one hand, she felt happy when she thought of how she had counterback and frightened Qin Shiyu, but on the other hand, she felt an indescribable emotion. Her heart was turbulent, causing her to toss and turn for a long time without falling asleep. She was discovered by Shu Hua who had woken up in the middle of the night.

Unexpectedly, this big colander would leak as soon as she encountered someone.

But as long as she didn't admit it, it was just insomnia. Who among the young people had never had insomnia?

On the opposite side, Qin Shiyu soon finished dressing up. When Jiang Yu heard the movement, she secretly increased her vigilance and pretended to close her eyes when the other person stood up.

Then she heard Qin Shiyu's serious advice, "If you feel sleepy, you can lean on the chair and relax. Sitting upright with your eyes closed must be tiring."

Jiang Yu:……

She leaned directly on the chair and relaxed.

Anyway, she wouldn’t open her eyes.

Qin Shiyu couldn't help but be amused when he saw this. It was so cute.

Before the recording of the program started, Jiang Yu had been avoiding Qin Shiyu, gossiping with Shu Hua, or playing games with Jian Cang. Anyway, he had absolutely no time to talk to the other party.

Qin Shiyu didn't approach her. Even when everyone was riding in the minibus to their destination, he kept leaning against the window with his eyes closed to nap.

Everyone's voices became quieter. Jian Cang was still puzzled, "God Yu feels a little cold when he has no energy."

Jiang Yu originally thought he was a little abnormal, but when she heard the word ‘cold’, her heart suddenly moved and she couldn't help but look back at the man sitting at the end.

He caught her gaze as if he had installed a radar and quickly opened his eyes with a cold face, but a hint of teasing in his eyes.

Jiang Yu:……

Just say how he could behave.

Sure enough, when he got out of the car, he still took a chance and whispered beside her, "How about it? Is it cold enough and proper enough?"

Jiang Yu nodded, "Not bad, keep it up."

She wanted to see what tricks he could play with his coldness and properness.

Especially when they start to face the camera and with a mic on his chest. There wasn't much room for him to show off then...

The theme of this episode of 'All Rounder 3' was Infernal Affairs. The six of them have to pretend to be employees and enter the criminal gang's group company to look for evidence.

Qin Shiyu had indeed maintained a cold and serious persona. He stopped swimming and solved puzzles with everyone. Everyone was still a little unused to it. Shu Hua asked, "Can a night without sleep have such an effect?"

Jian Cang asked, "Is it because of sleepiness and he want to get off work and go back to rest?"

Xiang Chen smiled, "That makes sense."

While chatting, Ye Yuanyu discovered something, "Can these computers be opened?"

They were now in the office of the Finance Department, where they needed to find the password to the safe.

After making the discovery, the six people split up and turned on the computers next to each other. Shu Hua was the first to find a strange file on a computer. Everyone gathered around.

Qin Shiyu took a look, "The video fragments should be arranged and fused together according to a certain pattern."

He lowered his head and said to Shu Hua who was sitting, "Make way."

Shu Hua stood up immediately. Qin Shiyu sat down, stared at the document for a while, took the pen on the desktop and wrote a string of letters, "Which of you knows how to use video software? Edit the videos together according to this pattern."

Jian Cang sat down without hesitation and acted as the audience's mouthpiece while operating, "So why is this the pattern?"

After seeing the answer, Ye Yuanyu had already grasped it and was responsible for explaining to them, "It should be arranged according to the pinyin of the names of the discovered core members. By spelling it out, you can know which core person did what."

Jian Cang was shocked, "Damn, so did God Yu memorize the list he saw?"

The group and the audience were shocked by Qin Shiyu's abnormal memory. At the side, Xiang Chen walked to the back and looked at Jiang Yu who was sitting in the corner, "Do you have any clues on this computer?"

Jiang Yu nodded and was thinking about the patterns. Suddenly she felt someone approaching. She looked up and saw Qin Shiyu walking in front of her. The other person still had a cold face and was acting proper. After walking to her side, he supported himself with one hand on her table, bent down next to her, and stared at the computer screen.

Unguarded, Jiang Yu was trapped in the corner by him. Her whole body was surrounded with a man’s aggressive aura. She felt that as long as she leaned back a little, she would lean into his arms.

Jiang Yu couldn't move. There were cameras all around. However, Qin Shiyu's movements were very natural, like a cold elite working seriously. If she overreacted, it would be more suspicious. Qin Shiyu was probably set on this point. As if he didn’t seem to notice the ambiguity of this gesture at all, he stared at the computer intently.

As he watched, his other hand reached out to hold the mouse, which Jiang Yu's hand was placed on.

Startled, Jiang Yu almost mentally collapsed. Fortunately, he still had some sense and didn't hold it directly. Instead, he hung above hers in pretense. His fingers with clear joints gently played with the back of her hand to signal her to move aside.

Jiang Yu obediently withdrew her hand, took the opportunity to lean back, and moved her chair to the side, trying to leave his coverage area. However, because it was a corner, her range of movement was limited and she was still blocked by him, unable to move. She could only be forced to take in his serious profile.

The other hand unconsciously touched the back of the hand that he had scratched. There was still a warm touch there...

Jiang Yu was trying to focus on the computer when she saw Qin Shiyu suddenly lowered his eyes and glanced at her small movements. The corners of his mouth quickly raised a small arc.

Jiang Yu’s irk immediately exploded. This guy did this on purpose!

TISHW 149




 Chapter 149 Hit a straight shot

When Jiang Yu received the first photo of Qin Shiyu and a telephone pole, she knew that she couldn't outflirt this person even online.

Fortunately, the photo wasn't strange. After all, she was someone he cared about, so not only was the photo not strange, it was taken very professionally.

The handsome man was wearing a white shirt, lazily leaning against the telephone pole, hands in one pocket, looking at the camera with a pair of loving eyes full of smiles, and the tear mole in the corner of his eye became vivid and charming for the first time, as if he was seducing people.

He did have the foundation to seduce, whether it was the beautiful collar bone exposed at the collar of his shirt, or the lines on his face outlined by the bright sunshine... Though he was very coquettish, he was really handsome. Jiang Yu couldn't help but take a second look.

But she didn't reply to the message, mainly because she felt that even if she replied, Qin Shiyu would be proud of it and then become worse. Replying with ridicule wouldn’t work. She was worried that if she replied with a trash can, he would send her a message with the trash can blockbusters tomorrow. How scary.

Fortunately, he was very busy, only three or two messages were sent every day. In addition to photos of telephone poles, there were some local specialties.

Occasionally, he said a few simple words of good morning and good night, but he never said anything inappropriate. If it weren't for the unshakable photo of a telephone pole every day, looking at the chat history, one would have thought that the other party was such a restrained gentleman.

Jiang Yu gradually got used to it. After all, through the phone, no matter how he flirted, the impact wasn't as big as ‘acting hooligan’ that day. Jiang Yu's stirred heartstrings slowly calmed down. She lived a step-by-step life every day: three meals a day, reviewing the contents of the postgraduate entrance examination, taking care of her own assets, and occasionally completing the functional requirements sent by Ye Yuanyu. Her days were full and busy. There didn't seem to be much difference.

It wasn't until Thursday, the sixth day after Qin Shiyu left, that she received another message from him. This time it wasn't a photo or an itinerary report, but a voice message, "Is there any negative news about me on the Internet? Is there any movement from Qin Luochuan  Sun Lingqian?"

What he was talking about was proper matter. Jiang Yu didn't ignore it this time and immediately sent him a reply: "No, did you do something?"

Him beating Qin Luochuan that day wasn't a trivial matter. Jiang Yu felt that with Qin Luochuan's character, he would definitely not let it go. Therefore, she had been paying attention to it in the past few days. However, the Internet was full of compliments and likes toward Qin Shiyu as 'The Devil's Hour' was about to end. But there was no news about the fight at all.

Qin Shiyu's voice call came over. Because it wasn't a video call, Jiang Yu hesitated a bit before picking up. A chuckle quickly came from the other side, "Jiang Yu."

Jiang Yu felt her ears go numb. She never knew her name could sound like this... sexy.

Subconsciously, she took the phone away from his ear. Was his voice this pleasant before? It got to be because they were separated by mobile phones. But they had called before...

Jiang Yu rubbed her ears, while her cheeks felt a little hot. She simply put her phone on the table, turned on the speaker, and said with a sullen face, "Hello."

Qin Shiyu paused and grinned even wider.

Jiang Yu glared at the phone and asked in a calm tone, "What's the matter?" 

Of course she had thought about it in the past few days. If she didn't want to be led by Qin Shiyu, she had to control the rhythm by herself. So she decided to talk about proper matter.

Qin Shiyu smiled, "Thank you very much these days."

Jiang Yu was confused, "Thank you for what?"

Qin Shiyu said, "Help me keep an eye on the news." 

He sighed, "You are the only one who cares about me so much."

Jiang Yu closed her eyes and realized that she had been fooled.

It went without saying Xu Lehua was keeping an eye on his affairs. He didn't need to ask her at all. However, she happened to be so clear about it... It made it look like she was paying attention to him...

Just when Jiang Yu thought he was going to tease her again, he became serious again, "Don't worry too much for now, Qin Luochuan probably can only care about himself right now."

Jiang Yu couldn't help but be curious, "Why?"

Qin Shiyu started to laugh again.

Jiang Yu didn't know why this man loved to laugh so much. She couldn't help but become wary when she heard him laugh.

Sure enough, she heard him say, "You didn't care about these things before."

Jiang Yu refused to admit it, "Who said? Gossip is one of my hobbies, okay?"

Qin Shiyu smiled, "But you were never curious about my affairs before." 

He paused, "So you treated me differently that early?"

Jiang Yu:……

This person really used every opportunity to make things difficult for people to guard against.

Jiang Yu stated expressionlessly, "Then I'll keep going. Goodbye?"

Qin Shiyu said quickly, "I'm sorry, I was wrong."

He finally behaved and quickly continued to gossip with Jiang Yu: "Do you still remember that time I cheated 50 million from Chen Yalian?"

Jiang Yu said "En." 

Of course she wouldn’t forget that the incident was caused by her. However, at that time, she regarded herself as a passer-by in Qin Shiyu's life and was ready to leave at any time and didn't ask for the details. .

All she knew was that he got Fu Mingchuan to ask Chen Yalian for money and Chen Yalian happily gave the money before calling the police to report that Qin Shiyu and Fu Mingchuan were working together to blackmail her.

In the end, Qin Xingye came forward to testify and told the police that Qin Shiyu was his son and it wasn’t blackmail. This made Chen Yalian swallow this loss in silence.

In fact, she had been curious about what he did in the middle to make Qin Xingye turn to his side.

Qin Shiyu smiled, "Chen Yalian was able to give money readily because I sent her a photo of Dr. Luo. That Dr. Luo was her ex-boyfriend. That Dr. Luo played a major role when she and Qin Xingye were able to kill my mom."

Jiang Yu asked, "Did Qin Xingye not know about their relationship before?"

Qin Shiyu said, "En, never knew. So I told Qin Xingye about it at that time. Qin Xingye didn't care about Chen Yalian's love life, but he did care about the evidence of his crime. Moreover, he wasn't able to have children. "

"When he knows about this relationship, he will naturally suspect that Dr. Luo, who he had never been able to find, was rescued by Chen Yalian, and that he had been secretly harmed behind his back."

"At the same time, I let Chen Yalian know that Dr. Luo’s sudden disappearance was Qin Xingye's fault. Just so that one day when she was no longer needed, he would use the same method to kill my mom on her. Her health happened to be not so good."

Naturally, she suspected that Qin Xingye had harmed her, so the two began to be suspicious of each other.

Jiang Yu became curious when she heard this, "Where is Dr. Luo? What if they find Dr. Luo and confront him."

Qin Shiyu smiled, "Of course I'm sure they can't find him."

Jiang Yu understood, "Dr. Luo was hidden by you?"

Qin Shiyu said, "It's my mom." 

At this point, his tone became lower, "She finally eliminated the biggest threat for me: she caught the weakness of Dr. Luo who might have caused my death. She ‘reminded’ Chen Yalian that even if Qin Xingye doesn't love me, there will be other sons. So Qin Luochuan may not be able to inherit the family business."

Jiang Yu's heart moved, "So Qin Xingye really can't have any more children? Chen Yalian did it."

Qin Shiyu said, "I don't know exactly how Chen Yalian did it, but seeing that he had had lovers everywhere for so many years but had no children, there’s a high probability that Chen Yalian succeeded."

Jiang Yu felt a sudden pain in her heart. Qin Shiyu's mom clearly loved him. But because she met a scumbag, not only did she die early, she was also forced to hurt her own child before she left in order to protect him.

Qin Shiyu continued, "That’s why they appear to be in harmony on the surface, but in fact they are fighting dog-eat-dog in private."

"Chen Yalian witnessed with her own eyes what Qin Xingye did to my mom. Of course she is worried that she would be treated like that. So even if she didn't fight back, she would find a way to give herself a backup plan. Qin Luochuan is her biggest backer."

"As for persuading Qin Luochuan, it's very simple. I'm a readymade example. Qin Xingye can be so cruel to me, why wouldn't he be cruel to him? And Qin Xingye had already sided with me once. Now he's starting to show off in the entertainment industry. With Qin Luochuan's low self-esteem, he can't help but leave a retreat. With Qin Xingye's wariness, he will naturally guard against him after finding out. A rift between them is inevitable. "

Qin Shiyu smiled, "So I showed Qin Luochuan my income this year."

Jiang Yu remembered Qin Shiyu's personal financial report that she had seen before. Not to mention other things, the revenue from the gold mine alone was nearly 200 million. There were several other companies. A conservative estimate was around 300 million.

As for his assets, almost no one knew about them. Everyone, including the Qin Family, thought that Qin Shiyu only had a little inheritance left to him by Maternal Grandfather Shu or Mother Qin. Even if he managed it smartly, it would probably only be enough for him to have enough food and clothing. The economic level was as good as that of an ordinary rich second generation, at most ten million a year.

As for the income of 300 million, Qin Luochuan himself may not even have that much.

So after seeing Qin Shiyu's income, from the limited information he obtained, the money could only be given by Qin Xingye.

Qin Shiyu smiled, "Then I gave Qin Xingye a call and mentioned that Qin Luochuan was doing some small movements in the company. Qin Xingye will definitely check on him..."

Jiang Yu quickly connected everything together, "Qin Luochuan learned that Qin Xingye was secretly cultivating you. And after he came to trouble you, Qin Xingye started to suppress him in the company. He will definitely suspect that Qin Xingye wants to 'depose' the heir'."

She was amazed that Qin Shiyu really understood everyone's human nature, "So now Qin Luochuan doesn't dare to act rashly against you anymore. He will definitely become more anxious. And Chen Yalian had an unrestrained personality. The small movements of the mom and son will in turn increase. If Qin Xingye discovers it, he will definitely find a way to suppress it..."

Then they fall into an endless vicious cycle, with the rift between the two parties getting bigger and bigger. They will eventually bite each other one day.

Qin Shiyu smiled, "So don't worry."

Jiang Yu caught on and said expressionlessly, "Since you are confident, why are you still asking me?"

Qin Shiyu smiled and suddenly said softly, "Because I miss you so much."

Jiang Yu:……

Why was he doing a surprise attack?

Before she could figure out how to respond, she heard the boarding prompt coming from the other side, "Are you at the airport?"

Qin Shiyu said, "En, we're about to board the plane." 

He paused and then said, "I didn't dare to talk to you before, as chatting will make it more hard to bear."

Jiang Yu muttered, "Said like when talking, I will talk to you."

Qin Shiyu smiled, "En, so I'd better go back and talk to you in person. If I don't talk, I'll block."

Jiang Yu was amused, "Are you a hooligan? Didn't you say you wouldn't bother me if I refused?"

Qin Shiyu said, "You already suspect that I am a hooligan. If I don't prove it to you, it will be unjust. How can one believe a hooligan’s words?"

Jiang Yu didn't expect that he would even admit this, so he let out snort, "Be careful of me reporting to the police."

"What? Do you want a tighter hug?" Qin Shiyu seriously stated, "Then wait for me."

Jiang Yu:……

She really felt that she couldn't let him succeed. It was like this before he succeeded. What will it be like after he succeeds?

The other side started boarding the plane. The two of them didn't talk anymore. They didn't hang up their cell phones either. It wasn't until the plane was about to take off that Qin Shiyu smiled, "It's time to turn off the phone. I'll hug you in thirty hours."

Jiang Yu finally couldn't bear it any longer and berated with a smile: "Get out."

Qin Shiyu laughed happily.

 Chapter 148 Hit a straight shot

Qin Shiyu chuckled lightly and handed the coffee cup to Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu quickly took it and wanted to throw it into the trash can. However, she hesitated and decided to take it away to throw it outside.

Watching this, Qin Shiyu laughed, "What? Do you think I will pick it out from the trash can?"

Jiang Yu did think so. She knew it was impossible, but before then, she felt it was impossible for Qin Shiyu to drink from someone else's cup? It was better to be cautious.

Qin Shiyu nodded in agreement upon seeing this, "Not bad, you have a very clear understanding of your own charm."

Jiang Yu:……

She stared at him expressionlessly, "I'm not sure about the lower limit of your perversion."

Qin Shiyu smiled and was about to speak when his cell phone rang. It was Assistant Ding calling. Qin Shiyu picked up the call, listened a bit, and responded, "En, nearly done."

When he hung up the phone, Jiang Yu wondered, "Are you in such a rush?" 

If she remembered correctly, he had received a call about the gold mine less than an hour ago. So he was going to handle it in person?

The efficiency was too high.

Qin Shiyu turned around and packed his luggage, "I have to go there anyway. Since there happens to be a buyer, it can be handled together. If lucky, it may directly be a smooth transaction. Even if it isn't suitable, if it’s taken care of this time, I won't need to go and handle it next time." 

At this point, he suddenly sighed.

Jiang Yu was confused, "What's wrong?"

Qin Shiyu turned around and looked at her, "I should have held back now."

Jiang Yu raised her eyebrows and heard him say, "Actually, I made such a tight schedule mainly because I wanted to come back and confess to you as soon as possible. But now..." His eyes fell on her face, "It feels like torture."

Jiang Yu's cheeks heated up and she muttered, "My fault?"

Qin Shiyu smiled, "It's my fault. I have poor self-control."

Jiang Yu felt that she couldn't stay with him any longer. Her head was so dizzy that she couldn't think clearly. So she coughed lightly, "You pack away then. I won't disturb you anymore. I have to catch a flight soon." 

Before leaving, she pondered and reminded, "That side isn’t as good as at home. You should be careful along the way and come back safely."

Qin Shiyu nodded, "Okay."

"Then I'm leaving." After Jiang Yu said that, she turned and walked toward the door. However, before she could reach the door, a strong force suddenly came from her wrist. Out of control, she turned around and fell into a broad chest in the blink of an eye.

A low voice sounded from above the head, "Sorry, let me hug you. I won't see you for the whole week."

Jiang Yu was a little stunned. Compared to the aggressive flirtation he had given, this real hug was actually more gentlemanly. His arms didn't even use much force, but pressed against Jiang Yu's body as if she could leave at any time. 

But Jiang Yu didn't know why she stood still. A chuckle sounded in her ears. A big palm caressed the back of her head. The arm on her body tightened for a moment, and then quickly released. The man took a step back, his eyes full of smiles and looking at her, "Don't worry, I'll be back soon."

Under his gaze, Jiang Yu felt embarrassed, turned away and muttered, "Who wants to mind your business."

Qin Shiyu rubbed her head again and suddenly said, "Actually, you..."

Jiang Yu looked up. When she saw his expression, she instantly felt wary, feeling that he was going to say something inappropriate again.

Sure enough, he said, "Want to take it back from me as a souvenir, right?" 

When he said this, his eyes fell on the coffee cup in her hand.

Jiang Yu unconsciously lowered her head and immediately saw the remaining lipstick on the rim of the cup. It was actually very light. Still, Qin Shiyu's expression instantly reminded her of the situation just now.

Jiang Yu's face that had recovered started to burn again. She felt that she was no match for Qin Shiyu in terms of perversion. So she glared at him and turned to open the door, "Bye!"

Qin Shiyu watched her almost fleeing back and touched his lower lip. Then he looked at his own hand and laughed unconsciously.

Since there was no rejection, that meant she like, right?

He lowered his head and sent a message to Jiang Yu: 【I hope you can give me the answer when we meet next time. 】

Jiang Yu threw the coffee into the trash can as if it was hot potato. When she saw the message from him, she gritted her teeth and typed quickly: 【What if my answer is rejection? 】

The other party quickly replied: 【I confessed to you to let you know my feelings, not to put any burden on you. If you don’t have feelings for me, I will leave voluntarily and it will definitely not affect your life. 】

A free and easy smiling emoji was added at the end. Still, it made people feel a little pity. 

Jiang Yu stared at this sentence, not knowing how to reply for a while. She couldn't tell which one was the real him. One moment he acted like an arrogant person, another moment he seemed like a considerate gentleman.

However, when she returned to City B, Jiang Yu looked at the compiled study and work schedule with an expressionless face, feeling that she was a fool for believing in him.

Especially when she saw the recording frame sent by the program team of 'Wonderful Holiday'. Compared to 'All Rounder', which was a high-spec, go-with-flow, and the audience shipping CP at will, 'Wonderful Holiday' had obvious sugar-making requirements.

Not to mention the interaction between CPs was more intimate, they would spend three days and two nights together day and night...

Jiang Yu didn't think much about it before. After all, she usually lived with Qin Shiyu and got along day and night. But now that she knew that he had been plotting against her for a long time and recalling the process of joining this program group, it was clear that she was induced step by step by him. 

When signing the contract, he deliberately emphasized liquidated damages...

Jiang Yu recalled what he said to the assistant director of 'Perfect Holiday', "I should be the one thanking the program team." No wonder he had been staring at her at that time...

Jiang Yu couldn't help but cover her face. This man was really...

Leave voluntarily? She could imagine that even if she refused, he would pull out this job and say that even if he wanted to leave, the job wouldn't allow it. And then...

The image of him raising his coffee cup and deliberately covering it on her lipstick mark suddenly appeared in her mind...

Jiang Yu ruffled her hair frantically and kicked her legs angrily, suddenly not wanting that guy to succeed.

The phone sounded. She picked it up at once. Sure enough, it was from Qin Shiyu. Counting the time, he should be changing planes.

Pursing her lips, she clicked on the dialog box and then saw the picture sent by the other party.

It was a pair of small cup pendants. Although the color was creamy yellow, the shape was the same as a coffee cup. There was a small red lip mark on the edge of the cup, but it was very obvious that it was painted artificially.

Then the second message was sent: 【I miss people when I see things. 】

Jiang Yu:……

She threw her phone down: Never let him succeed!

At the airport of a certain country, Xu Lehua hurried over, "Are your work arrangements so casual? Just leave as soon as you say it. Fortunately, I am handling things here, otherwise I would have to disappear for a week without seeing you in person."

Qin Shiyu came out of a store holding a pair of small pendants, "Why do we have to meet in person? If anything happens, just call?"

Assuming that he was bored from waiting for him and wandered around, Xu Lehua didn't pay much heed. He followed him and murmured, "Isn’t that side chaotic? In the first place, how did you get in touch with the governor there?"

Since the last time he saw Qin Shiyu and Abu confront each other, Xu Lehua felt more and more something was amiss the more he pondered about it.

He was similar in age to Qin Shiyu. When he was fifteen years old, he was still a kid in high school. What he worried about most all day long was how to get good grades and get rewards from his parents. While Qin Shiyu, he had already been to South Africa and bought a gold mine there.

No matter how smart he was, no matter how lucky he was, his experience was definitely not that simple since he could get a foothold in such a chaotic place.

Especially when thinking how his expression remained unchanging when stabbing Abu. If he didn’t have an emotional disorder or something like that, then he’s really experienced this.

So when he heard that he was going to fly to South Africa, Xu Lehua felt uneasy. Since he had time, he rushed to the airport to meet him, "How about I go with you? Do you need a bodyguard?"

Just as he was talking, he felt that the person next to him had disappeared. Xu Lehua stopped and turned around to find Qin Shiyu standing there holding a red watercolor pen and drawing something on a cream-yellow pendant cup.

Xu Lehua:......

No matter the little girl-like behavior or the cute-looking thing in the other person's hand, he was a little confused. What happened to Qin Shiyu during his absence?

It was indeed him who stabbed Abu with a dagger without changing his expression. Wasn't it his hallucination?

Xu Lehua couldn't help but move closer, "What are you doing?"

Qin Shiyu looked at the pendant in front of him with satisfaction, "Coffee cup."

Xu Lehua said, "This is a milk tea cup." 

His eyes fell on the small half-lip mark and he felt more and more that Qin Shiyu had been swapped, "Did you exchange souls with some wretched man? Why are you so perverted?" 

Qin Shiyu:...

He couldn’t be bothered to respond to him, picked up his phone, took a photo of the pendant and sent it.

Xu Lehua was used to his various anomalies and continued talking about business, "Did you hear what I said? I'll go with you."

Qin Shiyu put the pendant on his mobile phone, "No need, I can go alone. I go there every few years and am very familiar with it. There are reliable bodyguards."

Seeing Xu Lehua's distrustful look, Qin Shiyu continued, "Don't worry so much. I'll definitely be back before the recording of 'All Rounder 3' next week." After saying this, he paused and couldn't help but laugh, "Can't let a certain person escape.”

When he said this, he exuded a kind of vitality from the inside out, as if he was full of expectations for the return journey. 

Xu Lehua looked at him and his chest suddenly ached. The feeling that his heart had been hanging up for several years was suddenly put back into place made him feel a little distressed. Still, he was more happy and laughed, "What? You fooled Jiang Yu again." 

Before he finished speaking, Qin Shiyu started laughing uncontrollably, as if the word "Jiang Yu" was some magical switch that made him want to laugh when he heard it.

Seeing him caressing the pendant lovingly, Xu Lehua found it a little magical, "Is falling in love so great? You obviously didn't think anything was interesting before and said these were meaningless."

"En, I was narrow-minded before." Qin Shiyu looked at the pendant in front of him, his eyes full of joyful smiles, "Now I know that everything can have a unique meaning."

The phone finally rang. Qin Shiyu quickly clicked it. It was a photo, but the photo was of a telephone pole, and she put lipstick on it.

Below typed: 【This is all on the roadside, very convenient. 】

If you have the ability, hug the telephone pole and chew it all the way.

Qin Shiyu understood the implication of her words and couldn't help but be amused.

Look, from now on, the telephone poles suddenly became interesting.
