After Si Huang avoided it, she knew that Dou Wenqing would definitely be unhappy. Before his unhappy mood could break out and cause tragedy, she had already reached out her hand calmly.
Snapped.
The clenched fist gently landed on the back of Dou Wenqing’s outstretched hand.
Second Young Master Dou: “…”
It was like pressing a switch, and this person was stuck in place.
If anyone here had ever raised a cat and was a cat slave, they would find that Si Huang’s actions at this moment were very similar to a game that cats liked to play – hitting the back of the hand.
Cat’s paw never wanted to be pressed down, it must always be on top, its movements were always light and natural.
The shape of the empty hand and the movements were very similar and paired with the pair of obsidian eyes behind her mask, they silently dispelled the terrifying aura of Second Young Master Dou.
Si Huang tapped the back of the second young master’s hand twice with her empty palm, “I will prepare a thank you gift this time.” As for the debt of gratitude? Forget about unnecessary promises!
After two seconds, Si Huang had already retracted his fist, and Dou Wenqing reacted.
He looked at Si Huang with strange eyes and said, “No need.” Then, the next sentence: “Accompany me to eat.”
“I’ll invite you.” Rather than leaving with the other party, it was better to fight for the initiative.
Dou Wenqing turned around: “I’m going to change my clothes.”
Si Huang nodded, “I’ll meet you on the 36th floor in twenty minutes.”
Chai Liang, who was following Dou Wenqing, looked at Si Huang several times again with the eyes of looking at a god.
After they all left, Si Huang said warmly to the woman in the red dress, “Follow me.”
The woman in the red dress nodded silently and followed her footsteps.
Passing by Li Jiming and the others, Si Huang laughed and said, “Why are you in a daze? Let’s go.”
“Yes, let’s go back first!” Li Jiming also knew that this was not the place to talk.
After temporarily handing Hai Dongqing Xiao Xue to the staff of the private club, Li Jiming and others went back downstairs with Si Huang.
They returned to the suite on the 36th floor and found that it was in a mess, with men and women playing crazily and outrageously. Li Jiming shouted several times and drove them to the indoor swimming pool to make a fuss. He also asked the waiter to clean up the room. He then asked the waiter to bring three sets of clothes according to the body standards of the woman in the red dress, Si Huang and Zhao Yang.
Before the waiter brought the clothes, Si Huang first found a small medical kit in the suite, walked out and said to the woman in red dress standing in the living room: “Sister Guan, let me treat your hand injury first.”
After her words, the woman in the red dress who was called out stiffened for a moment, then she silently took off the mask on her face, revealing that beautiful face that was admired by countless men. It was none other than the popular Jade Girl movie star Guan Li.
“Did you already know it was me?”
Si Huang put the medical kit on the table, took out the tweezers inside, and disinfected them with medical alcohol. He smiled at her and said, “Fortunately, I heard the voice.”
“Okay, sit down first. Stretch out your hand.” She pointed to the sofa.
Guan Li was silent for a second and obeyed.
“It will hurt a little, just bear with it.” Si Huang warned, looking at the broken glass shards on the back of her hand that had penetrated her flesh.
Guan Li was a little embarrassed to be coaxed like a child by a junior who was several years younger than her. In order to ignore the abnormal beating in her heart, she pretended to be cold and said: “I’ll do whatever I want.”
“That’s not okay. It’s not good for women to have scars on their body.” Si Huang carefully and quickly picked out the glass shards from the back of her hand. Having experienced her past life, she loved her body very much and understood how a woman felt when she had scars on her body. Even if Guan Li’s attitude on the surface showed that it didn’t matter, if it really left scars, she would still feel sad in her heart.
These gentle words fell into Guan Li’s heart like drizzle, disturbing her calm state of mind. Then she heard Si Huang ask: “If you don’t mind, can you tell me what happened today?”
Guan Li’s unnecessary throbbing immediately disappeared at this incident. She raised her eyes and glanced at Zhao Yang, who was sitting with Li Jiming not far away, with a cold and embarrassed expression.
“Sister Guan didn’t do it voluntarily, right?” Si Huang, who was also an actor, could see Guan Li’s strength and the tiredness in her eyes.
“…No.” Guan Li, who originally didn’t want to expose her vulnerability, found that she couldn’t remain silent under the look from such a pair of clear and bright eyes. She felt a sense of grievance and wanted to express all the bitterness she had been holding in her heart, and she knew that this young junior would not laugh at her, nor would he show false concern, “I was so naive and arrogant that I thought I would be different. As long as I was famous enough and had the strength, the company would not sell me out.”
Si Huang put down the tweezers, applied a layer of medicine on the back of her hand, and then wrapped it with gauze.
During this period, Guan Li seemed to feel no pain. The cold expression on her face showed nothing, but her eyes were already a little lost. “Since I have joined this industry, I should be mentally prepared.”
“Sister Guan, do you really think so??” Si Huang looked at her squarely.
Guan Li opened her mouth but said nothing.
Si Huang then asked, “What would Sister Guan do if I wasn’t here today?”
“I don’t know.” Guan Li shook her head.
“Suffering on behalf of him in exchange for freedom.” Si Huang exposed her thoughts, “Do you think you can be let go after being punished once, or if you cripple yourself?”
Guan Li’s pupils shrank.
Si Huang said: “This idea is indeed naive. As long as you are of value, they will sell you a second time and a third time after selling you once. Harming your body will only make you more miserable, leaving you no capital to resist.”
She had been just so naive in her previous life, and the final result made her understand that if a person could betray you with a black heart once, don’t expect that the other person would sympathize with you or even let you go the second time.
The cold mask on Guan Li’s face cracked. She was a little enlightened but confused.
She murmured with a wry smile, “I was educated by you.”
Si Huang showed her a hearty smile, “This is the consolation of a friend.”
Her smile always easily contaminated people, so Guan Li raised the corner of her mouth slightly and said, “Thank you.”
This was not a good place to talk after all. Si Huang knew that the knot in her heart had not been resolved, so she did not continue to persuade her.
Just then the waiter knocked on the door and came in to deliver what they needed.
Si Huang handed a set of women’s casual clothes to Guan Li and said, “Sister Guan will wait here for me to come back. You will go to the celebration banquet of “The Emperor’s Path” with me tomorrow.”
“You don’t have to…” Guan Li frowned.
She didn’t do what the company told her to do today, and she was ready to go back and bear the consequences. If she really followed Si Huang, he would be involved.
“I remember Sister Guan also helped me when I first entered this circle.” Si Huang said with a smile.
Guan Li didn’t expect that he would still remember this, “That was just a trivial matter.”
“Now Sister Guan’s trouble is nothing more than a trivial matter to me.” Si Huang looked at her quietly, but his calm tone made people feel that there was no room for criticism, “Besides, we weren’t familiar with each other at that time, and now Sister Guan is my friend.”
Guan Li: “…”
Under Si Huang’s gaze, she was speechless. She felt moved in her heart and couldn’t help but believe this. People could really help others to overcome difficulties and generate a force to support others to face this obstacle bravely.
….
Watching Guan Li take the clothes to an empty room with a bathroom and disappear behind the door, Si Huang returned to the hall and walked towards Li Jiming and the others.
“I asked which beauty could make you stand out, and it turned out to be Guan Li.” Li Jiming said when he saw her coming.
The people on both sides were separated just now, so they couldn’t hear each other’s words, but they could clearly see the other’s appearance.
Si Huang nodded lightly to him, his eyes falling on Zhao Yang, “What agreement did you reach with Dongyu Media?”
Dongyu Media was the company Guan Li was signed with.
After returning to the 36th floor and learning Si Huang’s identity, Zhao Yang no longer had any scruples about him.
In his eyes, Si Huang was just a little star. Even if he knew Dou Wenqing, they might just have some shady business relationship.
At this moment, Si Huang looked down at him condescendingly, and Zhao Yang responded in an unpleasant tone: “None of your business.”
Si Huang narrowed his eyes slightly, “Whatever the agreement was, it’s gone.”
“Haha.” Zhao Yang sneered and said angrily: “Will I just let it go just because you said it, you really take yourself seriously!”
“Zhao Yang!” Li Jiming shouted, reminding him of his attitude problem, “What’s the matter with you? Si Huang is my friend.”
Si Huang took a step forward.
