Chapter 43 The Past with Nezha
"Brother Xiu, where did you end up chasing after him?"

Meng Ziyi lay on the headboard, chin in her hands, watching Chen Xiu with great interest.

The change in address was made by Meng Ziyi after their heart-to-heart talk last night.

She originally wanted to be called "Ah Xiu", but Chen Xiuyi objected sternly, so she changed it to the more pleasant-sounding Xiu-ge'er.

Turning to meet the eyes of the silly beauty, Chen Xiu asked curiously, "Why are you still interested in this?"

"I just want to know how you won her over, so that I'll have some idea if we run into each other in the future."

As she spoke, Meng Ziyi lifted her smooth, jade-like leg, pouted her red lips, and demonstrated her newly learned skill to Chen Xiu.

"Please tell me! I'm begging you."

"Are you... trying to be cute with me?"

Chen Xiu looked at Sister Meng, whose pretty face was flushed with embarrassment, with a look of surprise, feeling somewhat unaccustomed to her new skill.

Meng Ziyi rolled her eyes: "Don't you like it when I act cute? Now that I'm actually acting cute, you're not happy?"

"I'm not unhappy, just a little surprised."

"Then should I change back?"

"No need, it's fine as it is."

Chen Xiu's hasty rejection prompted Meng Ziyi to roll his eyes and then give him a wry look.

"So how exactly did you manage to catch up with Nazha?"

"Can we stop talking about this?"

Chen Xiu rolled over in bed, turning to the side without the character "Meng" in her name, as if trying to escape.

However, since Jiao had already made her move, how could Sister Meng, who was not receiving the goods, let him escape?

Reaching out, Meng Ziyi grabbed Chen Xiu's shoulder and pulled him back, pressing down on one shoulder with each hand and staring down at Chen Xiu.

"Tell me right now, or I'll go ask the other seniors!"

"so beautiful……"

Chen Xiu, who was trying to look up from below for the first time, suddenly felt that this perspective was not bad.

The aggressive Meng Ziyi paused for a moment upon hearing his words, then nodded and glanced at him...

"If you don't tell me, I won't show it to you!"

"Pfft~, you..."

"Will you tell me or not? No, I'll get dressed right now!"

"Tell me, tell me."

Having been defeated by this combination of soft and hard tactics, Chen Xiu tilted his head and chuckled, "Although this looks good, can I sit up and talk?"

Meng Ziyi, who had been trying to suppress her embarrassment, quickly rolled off the bed, then pulled him up and they sat side by side against the leather headboard.

After leaning against him for a while, seeing that Chen Xiu still hadn't started, Meng Ziyi nudged him with his elbow again.

"Hurry up, don't leave any ink marks."

"I'm just thinking about where to start! Nezha is actually quite easy to win over. I won her over before the freshman military training was even over."

"Gone?"

"Well, it's that simple."

Chen Xiu nodded, showing no intention of hiding anything, but Meng Ziyi was not satisfied.

"If she were so easy to get, how come she wasn't pursued by anyone else, but you were?"

“At that time, she was going through a difficult period. I helped her get some things back from her ex-boyfriend. She was touched and thought I was good-looking, so the deal was done.”

Chen Xiu recounted her past with Nazha, only briefly mentioning some things that were difficult to talk about.

Meng Ziyi could guess that the so-called taking back some things couldn't possibly be helping to get the kettle or something, but she wouldn't delve into such matters.

"I never knew you'd use the emotional approach to woo a girl! Wow!"

Chen Xiu responded to her teasing with a headbutt, correcting her: "A touching moment paired with any advantage is a winning combination, but played alone, it's just a loser."

When will you ever move me?

Chen Xiu put his hand to his forehead; he knew this problem would arise.

Having already tasted jealousy, Meng Ziyi, still eager to continue the conversation, didn't leave Chen Xiu awkwardly waiting for too long.

"Hey, keep going! Tell me how you broke up." "You still have to talk about breaking up?"

Chen Xiu turned around reluctantly, indicating that whether she watched it or not wouldn't solve the problem; if she wanted to hear the rest, she would have to pay extra!
After some haggling, Meng Ziyi rolled her eyes at Chen Xiu several times, then reached for a hair tie on the bedside table and tied up her loose hair.

An hour later, Meng Ziyi rushed to the bathroom to brush her teeth, and the first thing she did when she got back was to put her mouth to Chen Xiu's face.

Chen Xiu hurriedly leaned against the immovable headboard, then reached out to block Meng Ziyi's sudden attack.

"What are you going to do?!"

"If what you say doesn't satisfy me, I'll kiss you to death tonight after you fall asleep!"

"Hiss... I feel threatened."

After calming Meng Ziyi down, Chen Xiu abandoned the idea of ​​just going through the motions.

Why would you want to know about my ex?

"Never mind that, just tell me!"

"Want to hear the truth, or lies?"

Unable to bear Chen Xiu's rambling on about this topic, Meng Ziyi wanted to lean in and lick her lips.

Left with no other choice, Chen Xiu quickly explained, "At that time, I was still struggling to survive in my career, and then Nezha caught the attention of Tangren Media, who said they wanted to sign her and make her the leading lady..."

"Did you break up with her because you felt there was too much of a gap between you?"

Meng Ziyi interrupted curiously, saying that she had just experienced something similar yesterday and was still quite sensitive about it.

This time, Chen Xiu continued her eye-rolling: "I still have a lot of confidence in myself. I told her to wait two years, and after two years, I would promote her to be the female lead. She didn't want to, so we broke up!"

"Tsk, doesn't this sound a bit melodramatic?"

"Because that's a lie."

Chen Xiu looked at Meng Ziyi with a sneer, then dodged the silly beauty's pounce, grabbed her waist, and pressed his face against hers.

"Next, it's time for the truth."

Meng Ziyi sat down, feeling a sense that what was about to happen was extremely important.

From an angle that Meng Jie couldn't see, a memory surfaced in Chen Xiu's eyes.

“At the time, I not only said that I would make her the leading lady in the future, but I also guaranteed her that the business would definitely succeed! However, she felt that since she could be the leading lady now, why wait until the future? She thought my declaration of entrepreneurial success was unrealistic and that I was daydreaming.”

"Looking back now, I should actually thank Nezha. She taught me that this isn't a game, and she's not an NPC who stays put waiting for me to grow. Everyone has their own needs, so why should I make her abandon readily available resources to wait for an unknown future heroine?"

At this point, Chen Xiu paused.

After a long pause, Meng Ziyi finally spoke up and asked, "And then what happened?"

“I took her out to eat as usual. After she finished eating, I broke up with her. She was a little agitated, but she accepted it.”

"Then she'll regret it later."

Meng Ziyi leaned back, creating distance to meet Chen Xiu's gaze.

"If it were me, I would wait for you, and I believe you will succeed in starting your own business!"

"Hehe, yeah, I believe you."

“I’m serious, this is not hindsight! Last time I went to Shenzhen, I saw you talking business with that person, and you were willing to share money with your subordinates and live and eat with them.”

Sister Meng looked at Chen Xiu with bright eyes and said earnestly, "Back then, I knew that you would succeed in starting your own business."

Seeing her like a little fangirl, Chen Xiu teased with a smirk, "You're watching so intently, aren't you captivated by my heroic appearance?"

"Yes, yes, otherwise how could I have been tricked into this so quickly?"

Meng Ziyi glanced sideways at Chen Xiu with her beautiful eyes, admitting it with composure, but then her expression suddenly changed.

"wrong!"

"What's wrong?"

"You've been talking to Nezha for over two months, but you've only been talking to me for less than a month. You've been to her place for many projects, but you haven't taken me there yet!"

Upon hearing the key point that the silly beauty had grasped, Chen Xiu was about to make a teasing remark when he found his hand being grabbed.

Grabbing Chen Xiu's hand, Meng Ziyi pouted and said, "I don't care, I have a holiday these few days, you have to take me out to play. If we wait until your TV series airs, we won't be able to go out!"

"Okay, okay, I'll take you to play."
