Quick Transmigration: The Yandere Boss Pretends to Be Well After He's Gone Mad
Chapter 242 High-Ranking Business Tycoon (Gong) VS Beautiful, Clueless, and Clear-Headed (Shou) [18]
The next day, when Jiang Xiyu woke up, she was not used to the light and tried to raise her arm to cover her eyes, but found that she was receiving an IV drip.
He paused for a moment, then lowered his hand and found Shen Xiushu making a phone call on the balcony with his back to him.
After the call ended, their eyes met through the glass door.
Seeing that he was awake, Shen Xiushu opened the glass door and came in.
Jiang Xiyu propped herself up to sit up, somewhat forgetting what had happened to her, and asked softly, "A-Shu, what's wrong with me?"
Shen Xiushu walked over, looked down at him for a moment, and seeing that his complexion had improved a lot, he said, "The doctor said that you had low blood sugar and drank alcohol on an empty stomach, which is why you were weak and fainted."
He said, frowning as if displeased: "What's going on with you on set? If you can't do it, then don't do it."
It was clearly out of concern, but the harsh tone made it sound somewhat oppressive.
Jiang Xiyu misunderstood him and anxiously tugged at his sleeve, saying, "I was so busy that I forgot."
"Ashu, don't be angry."
His cautious tone sounded hoarse.
Seeing that his complexion wasn't very good, Shen Xiushu took out his phone and made a call to his assistant.
Ten minutes later, the assistant arrived with the doctor and a waiter.
The waiter left after serving breakfast. The doctor removed the IV drip from Jiang Xiyu's body, exchanged a few words with Shen Xiushu, and then left with his assistant.
Actually, Jiang Xiyu felt much better after receiving the IV drip.
He was a little hungry, but seeing that Shen Xiushu looked unwell, he didn't move.
Shen Xiushu noticed this and gestured for him to go wash up.
After Jiang Xiyu finished washing up, Shen Xiushu brought him a bowl of lean meat porridge.
Jiang Xiyu was certainly not so narcissistic as to think that Shen Xiushu would feed her.
He quickly reached out to take it, but Shen Xiushu glanced at him, paused for a moment, and then placed the bowl in his hand.
So, under Shen Xiushu's gloomy expression, Jiang Xiyu obediently took the spoon and ate little by little.
Shen Xiushu sat opposite him, watching him finish eating, a subtle emotion flashing in his eyes.
He asked, seemingly casually, "How much longer will this drama take to film?"
Filming started in early August and is now in late September; the entire production took four months to film.
Jiang Xiyu thought for a moment, put down the bowl, and replied, "It should still be more than two months."
Shen Xiushu frowned, seemingly somewhat dissatisfied with the timing.
But he didn't show it on his face, and only said coldly, "I understand."
When Jiang Xiyu saw him say that, she knew he was still willing to let her stay in the crew, and couldn't help but smile at him.
The weather was lovely, and the sunlight streaming through the window made the young man's smile look even more beautiful.
Her pale complexion, tinged with a pitiful charm, instantly stirred an inopportune warmth in Shen Xiushu's heart.
He looked at the young man and beckoned him over.
Jiang Xiyu's smile paused for a moment, but she quickly obeyed and walked over.
Shen Xiushu asked him to sit next to him, then reached out and hooked his chin.
The skin my fingertips touched was so smooth; it was hard to imagine that a man's chin could be so soft.
Jiang Xiyu slowed her breathing and lowered her eyes, quietly letting Shen Xiushu scrutinize her.
"Look at me," Shen Xiushu commanded softly.
Jiang Xiyu frowned almost imperceptibly and raised her eyelids.
Shen Xiushu's gaze had become very deep.
The fingertip was no longer just resting on the chin; it slowly moved upwards, as if to touch Jiang Xiyu's lips.
Jiang Xiyu then spoke up at the opportune moment, asking, "A-Shu, when are you going back to Haishi?"
The sound seemed to break the slightly heated atmosphere that had just begun.
Shen Xiushu paused, then lost interest and let go of her hand.
Jiang Xiyu subtly distanced herself from him.
Shen Xiushu rubbed his forehead, seemingly a little tired, and said to Jiang Xiyu in a low voice, "Tonight."
"So fast?" Jiang Xiyu asked, sounding disappointed, looking at him with a hint of unspoken words.
Seeing this, Shen Xiushu felt inexplicably better. After a moment of silence, he said expressionlessly, "Alright, say what you want to say."
Jiang Xiyu tilted her head slightly, her eyebrows drooping, and said softly, "A-Shu, I can't bear to part with you..."
Shen Xiushu's pupils contracted sharply.
Suddenly, that unsettling feeling from a while ago surged back up.
Shen Xiushu stood up irritably, staring at Jiang Xiyu, but quickly suppressed his agitation.
But that sense of confusion seemed to grow along with Jiang Xiyu's long hair.
The more Shen Xiushu suppressed his emotions, the harder it became for him to remain calm.
He recalled the feeling he had when he lifted the other person's chin just now.
What exactly was he trying to do back then?
When an answer that shouldn't have been given appeared, Shen Xiushu's expression turned ugly.
The door was slammed shut from the outside, the sound revealing the unease of whoever closed it.
Jiang Xiyu's gaze fell on it, and after a long while, a smile returned to his lips.
He raised his hand, his thumb slowly wiping his lips.
Needless to say, that area was pale and colorless due to illness, but now, after being pressed, a captivating blush slowly appeared.
Jiang Xiyu lowered her eyes and suddenly chuckled.
He got up to get his phone, and Jiang Yun called him many times to ask what was wrong.
Jiang Xiyu called him back to explain, then changed her clothes and planned to go back to the hotel.
Shen Xiushu's assistant stood at the door waiting, and only after seeing him come out did he say that a car had been arranged.
Jiang Xiyu nodded and followed him down.
Along the way, several men in suits were discussing:
Did you see Mr. Shen last night?
"I only saw that one side in the hall, and after that, I couldn't find anyone to look for."
One person did see it, but he said with a regretful expression, "Mr. Shen... seems to have left last night."
Jiang Xiyu could no longer hear the sighs that followed.
Suddenly, he remembered last night.
When they got close, he could smell the man's faint, pleasant scent, and when their glasses touched, the man's deep gaze fell on him for a moment.
……
The black sedan drove back to Haishi overnight. When it arrived at the Shen residence, the driver respectfully opened the car door.
The man had his coat draped over his arm. The butler came forward to take it and said, "Sir, the old lady is waiting for you."
Shen Jingtan handed him the coat and gave an inexplicably cold "hmm".
After he left, the driver was about to close the car door when he discovered that there was a small, square object on the seat.
It was left by the gentleman...
It looks like a lighter.
