TISHW 156




 Chapter 156 To the limit

Qin Shiyu went out to work early the next morning.

Even though he had been carefree, he had a lot of things that had been backlogged for seven days. What’s more, he even forcibly took out half a day in order to stay with Jiang Yu for a while.  

So the next day, he was occupied all day long and didn't even have time to send a message to Jiang Yu.

It wasn't until almost ten o'clock in the evening that Xiao Ding sent him back to Tinglan Community.

Even so, Xu Lehua still kept calling him, "After the completion of 'The Devil's Hour', your data had exploded. There are really many good scripts this time."

"Director Lan's ‘Rebel’ had sent an invite to you!" He was very excited. "I heard that this film had been prepared for a long time. It’s about the love of family and country and has a very high meaning. It’s a very good historical drama. If you can pass the audition, you can reverse everyone's impression of you as a traffic niche and completely transform." 

He grinned, "But it may be a bit tiring. You will not be able to meet your requirement of having only one job every day."

He was originally joking, but ended up hearing Qin Shiyu say, "Then forget it."

Xu Lehua paused, thinking that he heard wrongly, "Forget it? Qin Shiyu, why forget such a good opportunity? As long as this movie is filmed well, your acting career will be completely opened up."

Qin Shiyu was unmoved. Xu Lehua knew that he must have other ideas. He changed his mental pathway and planned to continue to persuade him, "Speaking of which, I thought about it today. When you chose to enter the entertainment industry, it wasn't for the sake of your psychological problems. You foreseen that Chen Yalian and Qin Luochuan would be unable to sit still after you became popular? Especially with Qin Luochuan's temperament that insists on suppressing you since young, he will definitely come and get involved  after you achieve success?"

Xu Lehua said, "The prerequisite for a person to be ruined is to have a great reputation. After all, no one knows him and there was no point in being ruined. You want everyone to know what Qin Xingye and Chen Yalian have done."

Qin Shiyu said nothing. This was regarded as acquiescence.

Xu Lehua admired his mind. From his careless appearance and not caring about anything, one would think he was going with the flow. In the end, everything was calculated. However, his calculations seemed to end with the destruction of the Qin Family. He seemed to have no idea about his own future. There was no planning at all. This wasn't a good sign.

Especially with such a good opportunity that others couldn’t ask for was in front of him. But he gave it up so easily. Xu Lehua was really unwilling to accept it.

He sighed, "You can't be passive and slow down because your goal is about to be achieved. Have you ever thought about your life after sorting out the Qin Family? It takes a lot of financial resources to bring down the Qin Family. After you finish them, your savings will be exhausted. You will become a pauper by then." 

At this point, he directly brought out Jiang Yu, "Don't you want to marry Jiang Yu? Can you bear to see her suffer when you guys get married?"

Only then did Qin Shiyu speak, "How can that happen?"

Xu Lehua immediately became energetic after hearing this, "So, you must have a plan. Now that you have established a firm foothold in the entertainment industry, take this opportunity to lay a solid foundation so that you can support your family, and realize your self-worth in the future. A person as smart as Jiang Yu wouldn’t like someone who has nothing to do and has no ideal pursuit, right?”

Qin Shiyu smiled lazily, "But she doesn't seem to like the entertainment industry very much."

Xu Lehua halted.

Qin Shiyu smiled, "Okay, I will seriously consider supporting the family. I will seriously complete the work at hand. Just don't cultivate me as a top star. I know you like this industry very much. This industry is indeed not bad. Now that we have gained some experience, you can take the opportunity to sign a few potential newcomers."

Only then did Xu Lehua realize that he seemed to be looking in the wrong direction, "So you don't want to continue because of Jiang Yu? Because those anti fans scolded her?"

Qin Shiyu didn't say it directly. Nowadays, he wasn't even considered an idol. In their eyes, he and Jiang Yu were stirring a CP. Jiang Yu had been ridiculed and abused by anti fans. If he becomes a top-star, the pressure on Jiang Yu will be bigger.

Seeing that he had arrived at the elevator and thinking that Jiang Yu should be waiting for him, Qin Shiyu couldn't help but have a smile on his face and said to Xu Lehua, "There must be many people online targeting her recently. Please pay attention to public opinion. As for ‘Rebel’, just push it away.”

Xu Lehua had no chance to say anything.

Qin Shiyu went all the way upstairs and opened the door with brisk steps. He found Jiang Yu sitting on the sofa in the living room and staring intently at the projection screen. When she saw him coming in, she only took a moment to glance over before her eyes quickly returned to the screen. An obsessed smile spread across her small face.

Qin Shiyu:......

She had never shown such an expression to him. Qin Shiyu walked over and sat down next to Jiang Yu, "What are you looking at?"

Jiang Yu ate a potato chip and took the time to reply, "Zhuang Si's new drama."

"Aren't there four guests besides Qin Luochuan and Sun Lingqian on 'Perfect Holiday'? I wanted to collect information about them today, so I searched Zhuang Si first..." As soon as she said this, a handsome white-clothed general on the screen was seen flying up and rushing into the enemy camp for a fight, Jiang Yu immediately stopped talking, stopped eating any snacks, stared at the screen with bright eyes, and excitedly asked Qin Shi Yu, "Isn't he handsome?"

It wasn't until the general rescued the brothers and rode away that Jiang Yu continued to share with Qin Shiyu, "He turned out to be from a boy band. I searched their group's album and found that Zhuang Si is really a treasure!" 

As she was chattering away, she remembered something, picked up her phone, directly searched for Zhuang Si's social media account, and then clicked to follow.

Seeing her like a fanatical fan, Qin Shiyu narrowed his eyes, "Do you like this kind?"

Jiang Yu didn't hear the jealousy in his tone and sincerely shared, "Zhuang Si is really good and worth liking. He is handsome, has a good personality, and has a very clear plan for his life..." 

She pointed at the screen to get Qin Shi Yu to look, "Look how great his acting skills are! He didn't even have a professional background in the beginning..."

The video automatically jumped to the next content related to Zhuang Si. Qin Shiyu glanced at her, got up, and returned to the room.

Jiang Yu thought he was going back to wash up and change clothes, so she didn't pay much heed. She continued to watch the video. After she came to this world, she had been busy surviving and had never paid much attention to idols and stars. One must know, apart from food and gossip, this was also one of her biggest hobbies.

Qin Shiyu washed his face, changed clothes, and waited in the room for a long time. He didn't sit still for a long time. He opened the door and went out, only to find Jiang Yu still sitting in front of the screen looking at other men. Her bright eyes weren’t that excited when seeing him.

"Jiang Yu." Qin Shiyu called her, "Aren't you going to pack your luggage?"

The recording of 'Perfect Holiday' will start on Wednesday and will take a total of three days and two nights. So they will leave for the recording location tomorrow.

Jiang Yu finally turned around, but responded, "Don't we set off at noon tomorrow? I'll pack up tomorrow. You have work tomorrow morning, so you pack up your own first." 

After saying that, she turned back and continued watching. She watched the other party do sexy hip dances and even cover her face shyly.

Qin Shiyu:......

He took a deep breath, walked over, and sat next to her, "Is he that good looking?"

Jiang Yu smiled, "En, handsome and hard-working people are so dazzling."

Qin Shiyu inexplicably felt like he had been stabbed in the chest. He, wasn't that hard working?

Seeing that she was still clueless, Qin Shiyu said calmly, "Didn't you say that your favorite subject is science? Regardless of the verification question or multiple-choice question, the answers are certain and unique."

Hearing him suddenly mention what she posted on Weibo yesterday, Jiang Yu couldn't help but cough slightly, a little embarrassed, "Why are you talking about this?"

At that time, she felt that her failure to tell Zhao Shunong about her relationship with Qin Shiyu caused the other party to misunderstand and made the other party to pair her up with Xiang Chen. Afterwards, Qin Shiyu showed obvious uneasiness. Although she wasn’t sure whether he was insecure or simply jealous, no matter which it was, she decided to give him reassurance.

People who like each other cannot avoid being jealous, but there was a difference between anxiously and cautiously being jealous and justified and confidently being jealous. The former was humble, while the latter was their right.

Naturally, she couldn't bear to let him be humble, so...

Jiang Yu finally recovered from the excitement of chasing stars and turned to look at Qin Shiyu who was looking at Zhuang Si on the screen with a nonchalant look on his face. So now he was exercising his right to be jealous?

Jiang Yu found it amusing, "You eating this vinegar too?"

Of course Qin Shiyu didn't admit it, "Who is eating vinegar? Haven't you already figured out the answer? It's certain and the only one." 

The first two sentences were full of yin and yang, but the last sentence was emphatic.

Jiang Yu couldn't help but be amused and wanted to tease him, "Indeed, the answer to every science question is certain and unique."

Seeing the relaxed expression on Qin Shiyu's face, she continued, "But science doesn't have one question."

Qin Shiyu stared at her expressionlessly.

Jiang Yu counted her fingers, "There are various types of questions including multiple-choice questions, verification questions, calculation questions... Hey!"

Before she finished speaking, she saw Qin Shiyu aggressively leaning over. Jiang Yu quickly shrank to the edge of the sofa. However, she was sitting next to the armrest of the sofa and had no way to retreat. Qin Shiyu's long arm supported itself on the armrest and circled her in the corner of the sofa. So Jiang Yu had the backrest of the sofa on one side and the armrest on the other, and the side with the largest contact area was Qin Shiyu.

He narrowed his eyes dangerously and approached with a smile, "Then what kind of question am I asking?"

Although Jiang Yu hunched her shoulders, she still responded without fear of death, "How do I know? I do the questions." 

Then he asked, "What question did you ask?"

Qin Shiyu laughed angrily and suddenly tickled her, "Aren't you doing it right now? If you don't know what the question is, how do you do it?"

Jiang Yu was a little ticklish and his fingers happened to touch her ticklish spot. Jiang Yu exclaimed and fell on the sofa with laughter. Qin Shiyu discovered her weakness and reached out to tickle her again. Jiang Yu roared with laughter again. In a flurry, she quickly grabbed his hand, but when she saw that he avoided it nimbly, she pulled his clothes down in desperation and Qin Shiyu fell straight toward her...

The air suddenly became still. Jiang Yu looked at Qin Shiyu lying on top of her, swallowed her saliva, subconsciously looked away, and gently pushed away, "Get up."

Qin Shiyu didn't move. He lowered his eyes and stared at the girl under him. Because of the laughter now, her cheeks were red, her eyes were still watery, and her chest was still rising and falling uncontrollably.

He paused for a moment, seamlessly pushed up his arms, putting space from the touch on his chest, and continued to ask in a hoarse voice, "What is my question?"

When he asked, his hand seemed to be on her ticklish spot again. If he touched it again at this time, Jiang Yuke would have no way to escape.

Jiang Yu quickly reached out and put her hand on his chest. Knowing her situation, she replied, "This is a unique problem. One that I am willing to spend the rest of my life solving."

Qin Shiyu raised his eyebrows. Jiang Yu thought he was satisfied, but then she heard him say, "Are you going to solve it for the rest of your life and then not give me the answer?"

Jiang Yu:……

Feeling that her ticklish spot was being poked, Jiang Yu changed her strategy and said coaxingly, "I can give you the answer right away when you get up." 

As for whether she will give him the answer after he gets up, that will be decided at that time.

Qin Shiyu narrowed his eyes and looked at her, "Shouldn't precious questions be solved slowly? If you give the answer so quickly, it seems that I’m not too precious."

Jiang Yu:……
