The Rebirth of a Top Star

The beating heart beneath Shen Nanqiao's hand, under the force of Shen Nanqiao's wrist, caused the man's body to move away from her.

Sensing Shen Nanqiao's intention, Song Shiyuan moved closer to prevent Shen Nanqiao's ankle from being injured again unintentionally. Song Shiyuan reached out and impolitely grabbed Shen Nanqiao's waist.

Shen Nanqiao couldn't retreat an inch.

A warm, large hand stopped her from retreating, trapping her in place while also protecting her well.

However, Song Shiyuan maintained a good distance, and Shen Nanqiao did not feel forced.

"Ding-dong." The elevator has arrived.

Shen Nanqiao was still pushing Song Shiyuan's hand with force when the lights came on the moment the elevator arrived. Shen Nanqiao saw Song Shiyuan's eyes, which were right in front of her.

He gazed at me tenderly in the darkness.

Shen Nanqiao had already realized that Song Shiyuan was about to let go. To prevent Shen Nanqiao from falling if he suddenly let go, Song Shiyuan thoughtfully pushed her back a little.

Shen Nanqiao did not follow Song Shiyuan's lead and walked backward. Instead, she cleverly went to meet him, which Song Shiyuan did not expect.

In that instant, although the light was on in front of him, Song Shiyuan could not sense any other objects; he could only see Shen Nanqiao's slightly closed eyes.

Long eyelashes cast a shadow on Shen Nanqiao's face. Song Shiyuan didn't know how many seconds he was stunned, but he suddenly realized that the elevator doors were about to close.

Song Shiyuan reached out and pressed the button again. He hugged Shen Nanqiao tightly, and the two retreated into the elevator.

The lights outside were already off, and neither of them could see the lights in the elevator. In a daze, Song Shiyuan took out his key and pressed the button for his floor.

The elevator door is closed.

Shen Nanqiao barely opened her eyes; she simply followed Song Shiyuan's footsteps.

Ono didn't have any tutoring classes tonight and was originally going to stay home and watch variety shows, but her mother's nagging annoyed her. She's currently in the most rebellious phase of adolescence, and all the trivial things at school are already annoying enough.

Now that she finally has a break, she still has to get nagged by her mother. Ono turned off the TV; this was the third time she had watched "The True Meaning of Two People" on TV.

Previously, due to some unknown reason, the episode had already been delayed for one episode. Now that it has finally been updated, there is still one last episode in the hands of the production team, who are reluctant to release it.

At least in the past, there were live broadcasts and behind-the-scenes glimpses. Even if students didn't know what happened during the live broadcasts, they could easily find out what Qiao Qiao had done by searching the trending topics. But now, for the last episode, the production team is really clever. They filmed it in complete seclusion, without any behind-the-scenes footage or live broadcast shots. Now everyone is still speculating about who will end up with whom.

Ono decides to go find her father.

He works as a security guard at the Pinshui Sishu Academy, and today happens to be his night shift.

Before leaving home, Ono deliberately went to her mother's bedroom and took out her old cell phone, which she had been using, with her in her pocket.

During class, I never get to touch my phone. To find out about Qiaoqiao, I have to rely on my classmates to secretly tell me every morning during self-study time.

Since she had finished her homework and there were no tutoring classes, and it wasn't warm at home, Xiao Ye grabbed her phone and headed outside.

Before leaving, I told my mother that I was going to visit my father.

When Ono turned off the TV, his mother didn't say anything else, only that it was best to come back early, as it wasn't safe outside at night in winter.

Ono nodded.

When she arrived at her father's "small" security booth, the glass on the door was fogged up due to the temperature difference between inside and outside, making it completely white and impossible to see anything inside.

Ono strained his eyes and searched for a long time, originally intending to scare his father, but now he just obediently knocked on the door.

When Ono went in, her father was sitting with several other uncles, eating instant noodles.

Steaming hot instant noodles. They look freshly made.

When Ono came in, her father immediately laughed and asked, "What's wrong? Why aren't you at home watching TV? What are you doing here?"

Ono pouted, unwilling to admit that she and her mother had a fight in front of so many elders. Her father probably guessed as much and didn't say anything.

He simply sat on his little stool, finished his cup of instant noodles in a few bites, stood up, grabbed the provided flashlight, and signaled to his companions to stand up and go on patrol.

The father knew that Ono knew how to use the tools here, and the captain and the others also knew that their daughter was smart. So no one said that Ono couldn't stay here and watch for a while.

Ono was familiar with the whole process. She saw her father put on a thick coat and go out the door. Then she sat down on a chair and turned to face the row of surveillance cameras.

She loved this job the most.

To be able to observe the various aspects of other people's lives without interfering with their lives.

This is Ono's way of relaxing; her current academic life is really tough.

Her eyes unconsciously swept over the elevator's security camera. The elevator was dimly lit, barely illuminating two figures.

The reason Xiao Ye was able to see it was because of the two's intimate actions. Another reason was that Xiao Ye, who had seen the news online a few days ago, immediately switched from being a fan of the Gu Ning and Shen Nanqiao couple to being a loyal fan of the Shen Nanqiao and Song Shiyuan couple.

Those two faces look so perfect together.

In the limited time she had to look at her phone, Ono had watched countless fanfics about the two of them and videos edited by CP fans. Now, the figures of these two really resembled them.

Ono was just thinking about it. Although the paparazzi's brief revelation revealed that they all lived in the same neighborhood, it's not necessarily true that a CP fan would actually believe that what they were supporting was real.

So when Ono saw the image in the camera, she just thought that the two people might just look alike and didn't confirm that it was real. She immediately zoomed in and started watching.

While observing, I was inwardly apologizing profusely.

"I didn't mean to, I was just going to watch for a little while." Thinking this, Ono stretched out her hand to cover her eyes, leaving only a small gap between her fingers to make it easier to see.

In fact, the whole process only lasted a few seconds. After Shen Nanqiao realized that she had entered the elevator, she used one hand to push away Song Shiyuan, who was still not satisfied.

His eyes were red, and his lower eyelids were wet, like a newborn fawn, with a hint of grievance in them, and his voice was a little hoarse: "What's wrong?"

He was very unhappy with Shen Nanqiao's act of pushing him away.

Shen Nanqiao didn't explain, but just gave a look, indicating that the camera above their heads was watching the two of them closely.

"Nobody will see this." Song Shiyuan felt even more aggrieved. The elevator was fast and was about to reach Song Shiyuan's floor.

Shen Nanqiao didn't explain much, but she did know that many celebrities' relationships had been exposed in public places because of cameras.

Shen Nanqiao didn't want to follow in other people's footsteps.

Besides, I haven't even committed to a relationship yet.

Song Shiyuan was forced to stand next to Shen Nanqiao, which indirectly blocked the surveillance camera above their heads.

He gripped Shen Nanqiao's wrist and hadn't let go since they were on the ground; he didn't want to let go either.

All of this was clearly seen by the surveillance room, which Song Shiyuan thought no one would be watching.

After the two distanced themselves, Ono couldn't help but guess from their profiles that even if it was a meal replacement, it was a real one. It wasn't until Song Shiyuan looked up that she realized it was definitely not a meal replacement.

This is the real deal.

Ono couldn't help but shout loudly; only in this way could she vent her feelings.

So, they were already together.

Ono's first reaction was to pick up her phone and take a picture. However, her phone was an old model from several years ago, which her father had discarded. The camera suddenly became blurry.

She could only get close to the screen to capture the two figures, so the image wasn't very clear.

But in Ono's heart, she was already quite content, since she didn't intend to tell anyone; she just wanted to keep it as a keepsake.

This is absolutely incredible!

Ono couldn't help it, but she had to hold back.

If she posts it online now, it will not only cause trouble for Shen Nanqiao and Song Shiyuan, but may also cause her father to lose his perfect job.

Ono had his own internal weighing of the pros and cons.

She didn't delete the photo; instead, she kept it private and carefully preserved it.

She believes that one day, if the two of them really get together and officially announce their relationship, she will definitely have the opportunity to share her beautiful photos with the public.

Sending it out now might even prevent her own couple from lasting together. Xiao Ye knows in her heart which is more important.

After confirming that Shen Nanqiao and Song Shiyuan had walked out on the sixth floor, she turned the video screen down and put it far away, refusing to look at it again, as if turning it back on would cause them to scream again.

Shen Nanqiao stood at the door of Song Shiyuan's house. Since she moved in, she had never been upstairs, so she naturally did not know that Song Shiyuan's house had the same layout as hers.

The only difference is that, initially, Song Shiyuan lived in the small secondary bedroom on the other side of the living room for the convenience of his work. It was very close to his office area, making it easy for him to use some things.

However, ever since he accidentally entered Shen Nanqiao's house and saw that Shen Nanqiao was sleeping on bedding of the same brand as his, he moved his own bed from the small secondary bedroom back to the master bedroom the next day.

Every night before I go to sleep, I imagine that there is only a wall separating us, and a sense of satisfaction arises spontaneously within me.

If Song Shiyuan gave Jing Tanqing a chance to look at his own home and its layout, then Jing Tanqing would definitely understand why Song Shiyuan suddenly asked him to lay carpets all around his bed in the bedroom before going to sleep that night.

That day was incredibly busy for Jing Tanqing's assistant.

Shen Nanqiao stood outside Song Shiyuan's door for a few seconds before her eyes fixed on the stairwell.

The elevator that had just stopped on the sixth floor had left at someone's call, and Shen Nanqiao prepared to walk down the stairs herself, to try out the route that Song Shiyuan walked every day.

Shen Nanqiao only glanced at him, and Song Shiyuan wisely released Shen Nanqiao's wrist.

Song Shiyuan applied just the right amount of force, leaving no uncomfortable marks on Shen Nanqiao's wrist. The only thing left was the indelible warmth on Shen Nanqiao's wrist.

Shen Nanqiao moved her hands uncomfortably; the temperature wasn't her own, and she wasn't used to it.

"I'm going downstairs." This was the first time Shen Nanqiao spoke to Song Shiyuan after coming up.

Song Shiyuan followed closely behind, saying, "I'll see you off." He didn't give Shen Nanqiao a chance to escape, and Song Shiyuan's words were firm; he was determined to see her off.

Shen Nanqiao had no choice but to acquiesce. Her original intention was to go down quickly so that the two of them could have a chance to process what had just happened and not have to make any decisions right away.

Song Shiyuan insisted on coming along, and Shen Nanqiao was too embarrassed to speak.

I was so reckless just now.

Recalling the four-character idiom that Song Shiyuan mentioned, this is truly: "bewitched by lust."

This is terrible.

Shen Nanqiao cried out in her heart, "How could I have broken the rules?"

Shen Nanqiao considers this her first kiss in her heart.

In her two lifetimes, she had kissed more than one or two handsome men, but without exception, it was all because of work. In her previous life, a large part of the reason she fell from a high building was that she did not like to be close to men.

Surrounded by girls, I never imagined that women would make things difficult for other women.

Shen Nanqiao died before she even had a chance to date. Looking back now, she truly regrets it.

Shen Nanqiao's inner thoughts were directly displayed on her face. When she wasn't acting, Shen Nanqiao rarely tried to control her expressions. Moreover, the person beside her now was someone she trusted from another perspective.

Shen Nanqiao was not afraid.

The staircase has only one floor, and actually only a few steps.

Shen Nanqiao stood at the door of her house, not in a hurry to go in, but with her back to the door, facing Song Shiyuan.

She sensed that Song Shiyuan had something to say.

When a suitor wants to speak, Shen Nanqiao will naturally give him the opportunity; however, whether the person being pursued will respond is another matter.

Shen Nanqiao stared intently at Song Shiyuan's lips.

His lips parted slightly, and before Shen Nanqiao could even speak, she was already recalling the sensation she had just felt.

This man's mouth, like his tone of voice, was always gentle and soft when he spoke to me. If I hadn't taken the initiative earlier, he probably would have obediently withdrawn his words in the next second.

The more I think of Shen Nanqiao, the more I want to laugh.

He was actually quite green.

Song Shiyuan saw Shen Nanqiao's nonsensical smile after thinking, unaware that it was because of him that she was smiling.

Song Shiyuan finally spoke, and Shen Nanqiao still stared at Song Shiyuan's lips, his soft, moist lips.

A light pink color, like bouncy jelly.

"You..." Song Shiyuan was about to speak when Shen Nanqiao suddenly sensed something was wrong. She didn't want to hear what Song Shiyuan was about to say. Let things remain unclear for now.

Sometimes, speaking out isn't necessarily a good thing.

Shen Nanqiao reached out and covered Song Shiyuan's mouth before he could speak. His lips touched Shen Nanqiao's palm, making both of them feel a ticklish sensation.

Song Shiyuan understood and shut his mouth. The blush on his face hadn't completely faded yet. He withdrew Shen Nanqiao's hand, took a step closer to her, and wanted to get closer.

Shen Nanqiao extended a finger, keeping Song Shiyuan half a meter away: "Consider this a test for now, Song, my suitor."
