Marrying the Divorced Female Protagonist O After Transmigrating into a Book - Chapter 40
A few minutes later, Zhao Xinyu looked suspiciously at Sun Qianyi, who was pursing her lips, slightly puffing out her cheeks, and smiling at her. Did she look affectionate, or was there something on her face right now?!
Staring at the lipstick on Sun Qianyi’s lips, which she had completely licked off, tsk, I understand why Sun Qianyi is laughing! “Do you have any wet wipes?”
Sun Qianyi smiled, and said softly, “Yes, right behind me.”
Huh? Isn’t ‘right behind me’ directly in front of me?
Hiss.
She’s still smiling. It seems my face looks very presentable right now! “You get down and sit on the sofa. I’ll wipe it off.”
Sun Qianyi had only just sat down and didn’t want to get off the desk yet. “Don’t move. I’ll wipe the lipstick marks off for you.”
“Okay. Give me one too. I’ll wipe mine off.” Zhao Xinyu looked at her lips and spoke.
Sun Qianyi smiled, turned sideways to get a wet wipe, and wiped the lipstick marks off Xinyu’s lips. There are lipstick marks all over Zhao Xinyu’s mouth, neck, and collarbone.
Four or five minutes later, Sun Qianyi was still wiping lipstick marks off her… How many could there be? Just as Zhao Xinyu was about to ask Sun Qianyi, someone knocked on the door.
Zhao Xinyu and Sun Qianyi were both startled, looking toward the door simultaneously. Then, Zhao Xinyu swiftly picked her up and had her sit on the sofa.
“I’m coming in,” was Cai Luo’s voice. Sun Qianyi relaxed, turned her head, and continued to wipe the lipstick marks off Xinyu: “Okay.”
Wiping off the last lipstick mark, Sun Qianyi threw the wet wipe into the trash can, then turned to look at Cai Luo, noticing someone following behind her.
Cai Luo raised an eyebrow upon finding Zhao Xinyu. When did this person sneak over? Just now? What were the two of them doing?!
Zhao Xinyu noticed Cai Luo’s expression. She probably didn’t expect me to be here.
Noticing Sun Qianyi looking behind her, Cai Luo smiled and stepped aside to introduce her: “Teacher Tang came over to see you after her performance.”
Hearing the words “Teacher Tang,” Sun Qianyi immediately reacted, stood up, and greeted her warmly: “Teacher Tang, please come and sit down.”
Watching Teacher Tang walk over and sit down, she turned to Sun Qianyi and said, “Your dance performance today was excellent. The movements were basically flawless. It’s clear your foundation is very solid.”
Sun Qianyi was happy that Teacher Tang came over and gave her such high praise. She smiled and replied, “Thank you for the compliment, Teacher Tang.”
“I’m speaking honestly; it was truly well-danced. I was immediately drawn into the emotion.” Saying this, she noticed the person sitting next to Sun Qianyi and asked, “And who is this?”
Sun Qianyi turned to hold Zhao Xinyu’s hand and introduced her to Teacher Tang: “This is my wife. She specially came to watch the performance today.”
Zhao Xinyu looked at Teacher Tang and smiled and nodded. It’s a good thing she and Cai Luo came late.
“Oh, so she’s your wife. You two look very compatible.”
Sun Qianyi smiled sweetly and said, “Thank you. We haven’t held a wedding yet; we’ve only registered our marriage. Teacher Tang, if you’re free that day, would you like to come?”
“Oh? I can. Have Little Luo get my manager’s contact information later.”
“Okay, Teacher Tang.”
…
Sun Qianyi had planned to seek out the other teachers, but many of the seniors she wanted to meet came to her lounge after their performances. Before they left, Cai Luo added all their contact information. A few seniors openly stated that they would like to collaborate with Sun Qianyi if the opportunity arose.
When the performance ended, Su Ke took Sun Qianyi to remove her makeup. Zhao Xinyu and Cai Luo waited for them in the lounge.
Zhao Xinyu still hadn’t returned after the performance ended. Ming Wenxin looked at Zhao Xuan and said, “Call your sister and ask if she’s still coming over.”
People were starting to leave the venue now. Zhao Xuan turned to look at Ming Wenxin and replied, “Okay, Mom.”
Taking out his phone, Zhao Xuan called Zhao Xinyu and asked, “Are you coming back with Qianyi?”
“Yes, Brother. You and Mom and Dad go home first.” It takes some time for Sun Qianyi to remove her makeup. She won’t be fast.
Zhao Xuan looked at his parents and said to Zhao Xinyu, “Okay. Then we’ll head back first.”
“Okay, Brother.”
Hanging up the phone, Zhao Xuan said to his parents, “Xinyu is with Qianyi. Let’s go first.”
Zhao Haizhou & Ming Wenxin: “Mhm.”
Zhao Xinyu put away her phone and noticed Cai Luo staring at her. She asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing. I just can’t believe you’re really Zhao Xuan’s sister? Actually, Sun Qianyi, your brother, and I were all classmates in the same year.”
“Mhm. Do you know my brother?”
Cai Luo shook her head and said, “No, I don’t know him, but I often saw your brother because of Sun Qianyi.” She couldn’t possibly be associated with the Zhao family. Let alone become friends with Zhao Xuan. Being acquainted with Sun Qianyi and now working with her is already very lucky for her. After working for so many years, her family is also slowly getting better. During university, her already struggling family ran into more problems. Sun Qianyi, who was already earning money by performing in various places, found out about her situation and transferred money directly to her.
“I’ll introduce you two sometime. I’ve been busy with the new company’s recruitment recently. There’s a high chance I’ll collaborate with the studio’s artists later~”
Cai Luo was a little surprised. Busy with a new company? Recruitment? Collaboration? “Is your family also entering the entertainment industry?”
“You could say that. The company name is Xinyi Media. If the studio runs into any difficult issues, you can contact me directly.”
She hadn’t realized Zhao Xinyu was so good to Sun Qianyi. Whenever the studio encountered trouble, the Sun family always avoided it. “Good. With a powerful backer like you, I believe the studio’s artists will only get better and better.”
“Hahaha~ That’s for the best!”
Sun Qianyi was gone for about half an hour. When she returned, she, Su Ke, and Cai Luo left the performance backstage after Su Ke tidied up the rest of the things.
Zhao Xinyu drove there. She bid farewell to Cai Luo and Su Ke, holding Sun Qianyi’s hand, and walked toward the car.
Watching Miss Zhao and CEO Sun leave, Su Ke looked at Sister Cai Luo and asked, “Sister Cai Luo, should we find an opportunity to mention Miss Zhao and CEO Sun’s relationship to the studio staff?”
Cai Luo looked at Su Ke with an inquisitive expression: “Did they say something? Or are you just curious?”
Su Ke was embarrassed and didn’t speak. Cai Luo could roughly guess what she was thinking. “If you don’t say anything, how will I know?” Looking at the retreating figures of Sun Qianyi and Zhao Xinyu, “Let their matter take its course. If anyone misbehaves, we’ll fire them immediately.”
“I understand, Sister Cai Luo.”
“Mhm. Let’s go too.”
Su Ke nodded, hummed “Mhm,” and followed Cai Luo out.
Cai Luo was driving Sun Qianyi’s car. After dropping Su Ke off at home, she headed home herself. On the way home, she glanced across the street and saw a familiar figure. Why is she by the side of the road so late? At the next traffic light, Cai Luo, on a whim, turned her car around and stopped next to her. Opening the car window, Cai Luo leaned slightly and asked her, “Why are you here alone?”
It’s her! Xia Xuan was a little surprised to see her appear in front of her and said softly, “My friend had an emergency and went back first.” That’s right. Lu Qing answered a call, apologized, and asked her to take a taxi home. She was rushing home. She had only been standing there for two to three minutes, and the taxi she ordered online hadn’t arrived yet.
I see. Cai Luo thought. “Get in. I’ll drive you home.”
Xia Xuan didn’t expect her to offer to drive her and looked at her in shock.
Cai Luo thought her expression was a little cute. “Don’t just stand there blankly. Get in.”
Xia Xuan got into the car, sat in the back seat, and said, “Sorry for the trouble.”
Cai Luo asked for her home address and drove her home. Neither of them spoke on the way. Cai Luo felt a little awkward and turned on the music. It was a piece of classical music, probably something Sun Qianyi had been listening to lately.
Xia Xuan was surprised to hear the classical music. She liked the song too; it was one of the tracks on her playlist. Seeing they were almost home, Xia Xuan took out her phone, looked at the person driving, and asked, “Can I get your contact information?”
For a moment, Cai Luo felt time stop. She hadn’t expected this Omega asking for her contact information to make her mind go completely blank. At that moment, in Cai Luo’s perception, time really did stop for half a second.
“Cough, cough, sure.” What’s wrong with me? I can’t even speak fluently.
“Can you tell me your name?”
“…Cai Luo.” After all this time, they still didn’t know each other’s names. What is wrong with me today?
“My name is Xia Xuan. The ‘Xia’ from summer, and the ‘Xuan’ with the grass radical.”
“Mhm. It’s nice to meet you, Xia Xuan.”
Her voice was gentle. Xia Xuan suddenly felt a little shy and hummed in response.
After exchanging contacts, she drove Xia Xuan home, watching her enter the house before leaving. This Omega’s family must also be quite well-off. She thinks they probably don’t have a future together…
When Zhao Xinyu and Sun Qianyi got home, they saw Zhao Yanran was there too. She actually decided to stay here tonight. “Auntie.”
Sun Qianyi: “Auntie~”
Zhao Yanran completely ignored Zhao Xinyu, looking at Sun Qianyi and complimenting her: “Today’s performance was excellent.”
Sun Qianyi: “Thank you~”
…
Tsk, Zhao Yanran completely ignored me! Who said Zhao Yanran loved me the most?!
Upstairs, Zhao Xuan: Achoo, achoo!
“Where are Mom and Dad?” Zhao Xinyu asked Zhao Yanran.
“They’ve gone back to their room. They’re a little tired from watching the long performance today.”
“I see. You should rest early too, Auntie.”
“Mhm.” Remembering Song Wan’s interest in becoming an actress, she looked at Zhao Xinyu and asked, “Are you in charge of the new company?”
Huh? Why is Zhao Yanran asking that? Does she want to… “Yes, Auntie.”
“Mhm, I see.” I didn’t expect Zhao Xuan to confidently hand the new company over to Xinyu. It seems I know very little about Xinyu, not even what she’s good at. Once the company is stable, I can take charge of the costume department. I could help Xinyu a bit.
“Oh~” So she just asked to ask? Or does she have some opinion about the new company? “Well, Auntie, Qianyi and I are going back to our room to rest now.”
Song Wan hadn’t shown her the contract yet. She’ll ask Xinyu when the time comes. “Go ahead. I need to go back and rest too.”
“Okay, Auntie.” Her intuition tells her that Zhao Yanran wasn’t just asking casually. But she can’t figure out why Zhao Yanran would ask her about being in charge of the new company.
Holding Sun Qianyi’s hand, they went upstairs to the room. After watching the performance for so long tonight, she was also a little tired. Sun Qianyi must be very tired too.
In the bedroom, Zhao Xinyu watched her take her pajamas and go to the bathroom to shower. She also went to the walk-in closet, took her pajamas, and went to the study to shower.
After showering and drying her hair, Zhao Xinyu hugged Sun Qianyi around the waist, embracing her gently, and said, “Close your eyes and rest well.”
Sun Qianyi’s fingers gently stroked Xinyu’s cheek and said, “Okay~”
Author’s Note:
Watching Sun Qianyi take the stage, Cai Luo glanced at the audience and saw that girl!
The corners of her lips unconsciously smiled~
