The car stopped steadily downstairs of Ludu Mansion. Xia Qingqian seemed like she hadn't heard enough gossip. She looked unsatisfied and reluctant to get out of the car. "Is Jiang Xueer playing the leading female role in Director Ning's "Beauty Taken"? Who is the leading male role? Is he from our company? I don't seem to have heard any news..." Xia Qingqian said innocently.

Ji Fengfan opened the car door and got out, and Xia Qingqian also jumped out and followed him.

He frowned slightly and turned to look at Xia Qingqian, "Where did you hear that Jiang Xueer is the leading actress?"

The news of the open audition for "Beauty Taken" has been released, but the audition time has not yet arrived, and the female lead has not been confirmed.

"This gossip has spread everywhere, and everyone is saying..." Xia Qingqian curled her lips as she thought of the rumors in the company.

"What did you say?" Ji Fengfan took her hand and walked into the elevator, asking with a smile.

"You said that this drama was tailor-made for her, and the leading female role had already been decided. The auditions were just a formality." Xia Qingqian said sullenly.

Ji Fengfan turned around and looked at her, "What do you think?"

"How would I know all this..." Xia Qingqian whispered, "However, if Jiang Xueer were to play the role, the box office shouldn't be a problem." After all, Jiang Xueer's popularity and status are there, and she is in the limelight.

Ji Fengfan looked at her with a sincere tone, not even thinking about whether he might also be the leading female role.

What a...silly girl.

"The auditions haven't started yet, don't believe those rumors." Ji Fengfan tapped her forehead and said, "By the way, you should also audition during the auditions."

"Sister Manni told me to prepare well and at least get the second female role. The pressure is so great."

"Why not the female lead?" Ji Fengfan asked.

"How could it possibly be my turn to play the leading female role?" Xia Qingqian was very self-aware. The audition for the leading female role was definitely just a formality. She might not even get the second female role, so how could she possibly dream of playing the leading female role?

"How is it impossible?" Ji Fengfan smiled. He had seen Xia Qingqian's plays and her acting was very good. He had to admit that some people were born to do this. His mother was, and so was Xia Qingqian...

This girl is always lacking in confidence in herself.

The two chatted and laughed as they returned to the apartment. They each took a shower and changed into their home clothes. They had already agreed to watch a movie together.

Xia Qingqian hadn't washed her hair, so she quickly curled up on the sofa in her home clothes and looked for a movie to watch. Ji Fengfan came out wiping his wet hair. Xia Qingqian looked up and saw the wound on his forehead. The cut didn't look big, but it seemed quite deep. Now that it had touched the water, it looked even more serious.

"Wait a moment." Xia Qingqian called him.

Ji Fengfan had messy soft hair and looked a little silly. "What's wrong?"

Xia Qingqian jumped up and walked in front of him, looking up at his forehead, "Why is your forehead injured? When did it happen?"

Ji Fengfan was startled, then realized that he had washed his hair, which probably exposed the wound.

After hiding for a whole night, he was finally discovered.

"It's okay." Ji Fengfan turned his face away, not wanting to make her worry.

Xia Qingqian pulled him to sit on the sofa, then ran to find the medicine box and said, "Let me see if the wound is deep."

Ji Fengfan sat obediently. Xia Qingqian brushed aside the loose hair on his forehead and looked at him carefully. She said, "It's okay. Just disinfect it and don't touch water for the next two days."

Then he turned around and took out iodine from the medicine box, dipped a cotton swab in it, and carefully applied it to the wound.

While applying, he blew gently, as if he was coaxing a child.

In fact, this injury was nothing to Ji Fengfan, he didn't care about it. He just indulged in the feeling of being cherished by being treated so carefully that he didn't want to interrupt.

After disinfection, Xia Qingqian reminded him again, "Don't touch water in the next two days."

"Okay." Ji Fengfan stared at her with a smile, his deep eyes seemed to suck her in.

The two people are getting closer and closer...

Xia Qingqian came back to her senses and pushed Ji Fengfan away, "I'll put the medicine box back." Then she ran away.

She put the medicine box back into the storage room and leaned against the wall. Her heart was still pounding and her face was as red as an apple. Ji Fengfan's handsome face was still in her mind.

How can this person be so good looking...

When she calmed down her heartbeat and returned to the living room, Ji Fengfan had already found an old movie and was ready to start playing. He patted the seat next to him and motioned Xia Qingqian to come over.

Xia Qingqian walked over slowly and sat down. Her heartbeat had calmed down, but her little face was still rosy, making people want to bite it.

Ji Fengfan didn't dare to act like a beast again, for fear that he would scare the other person. If his wife ran away, where would he find her?

He pulled Xia Qingqian to sit down and watched the movie obediently and properly.

Xia Qingqian stole a glance at the wound on his forehead and couldn't help asking, "How did you get injured?"

Ji Fengfan turned his head to look at her and smiled, "The old man was angry and was hit by his pen holder."

Xia Qingqian had a question mark written all over her face.

"It's my grandpa."

"Ah?" Xia Qingqian's face was full of question marks, "How could you hit someone? Why didn't you hide for a moment?" When she was a child, her grandparents favored boys over girls and didn't like her and her sister, but they wouldn't hit anyone.

Xia Qingqian was still talking on and on, and it looked as if she was going to go find Grandpa Ji Fengfan to get an explanation in person.

Ji Fengfan's eyes moved slightly as he stared at Xia Qingqian. It seemed like... for a long time... no one had told him to hide when being hit.

"Okay, I will definitely avoid it next time." Ji Fengfan replied with a smile in his eyes, grabbing her little hand and holding it tightly.

It was already past midnight when the movie ended. Xia Qingqian stood up, yawning, and walked towards her room, saying good night to Ji Fengfan.

Ji Fengfan followed her to the door, and Xia Qingqian felt something was wrong. Why was he following her...

"...Aren't you going to bed?" Xia Qingqian turned around and looked at Ji Fengfan and blinked.

"I can't sleep. My insomnia is quite serious..." Ji Fengfan said with his eyes downcast, sounding pitiful.

"Then what should we do..." Xia Qingqian didn't expect it to be like this, "How did you sleep before? Did you take medicine?"

Ji Fengfan shook his head. "The doctor suggested that I take the medicine less frequently. I can't stop taking it. I haven't slept much lately..."

"Then...is there any other way?" Xia Qingqian felt a little distressed.

Ji Fengfan still pursed his lips, as if it was difficult to speak, "Last time in the hotel... when we... had the accident, I slept very well..."
