Since crossing over, Lin Xiaoman had been sleeping lightly, waking up at the slightest noise. After discovering someone beside her in the hotel, her frequency of waking up had increased even more.
That night, she again felt a shadow moving by the bed, but when she opened her eyes, she saw nothing. The wind was blowing the curtains, but she remembered closing the window before sleeping.
When she went to the window, she found nothing again.
By the end of the night, she hadn’t slept well at all.
Xiaobai looked at her dark eye circles and couldn’t help but feel sorry: “How about I stand guard outside the door tonight?”
“I’m fine,” Lin Xiaoman rubbed her forehead, knowing Ji Zhixian would handle this matter and not worrying, “How is Xie Chi doing?”
“He’s still staying in his room all day, refusing to say anything,” Xiaobai sighed, “One after another, it’s so worrying.”
“Oh right, I saw someone selling grapes on the way to filming yesterday. Go buy some and take them to Xie Chi later,” Lin Xiaoman picked up her script again, “He likes them.”
Xiaobai obediently went to buy grapes, and Lin Xiaoman continued memorizing her lines.
Suddenly, the door of the makeup room was opened, and Huang Yinyin poked her head in, carefully glancing at her like a startled hamster, and whispered: “Xiaoman, something big happened in the group.”
“What’s wrong?”
“The media caught photos of Huo Qizhi and Xi Xueer together, saying they’re dating,” Huang Yinyin, seeing no one else in the room, came in and closed the door, “The investors are furious because the contract clearly stated he was not in a relationship.”
“They’re just friends. Even if they are together, it’s no big deal.”
Could it be media hype?”
“No, they’ve already photographed them holding hands entering Xi Xueer’s home, with several photos of them hugging inside her house.”
Lin Xiaoman took out her phone to search and found these were photos from yesterday’s birthday of Xi Xueer, with reporters capturing them shopping and returning home together. Each photo was perfectly angled, especially those inside the house that clearly showed Huo Qizhi’s face.
It seemed her plan to provoke Xi Xueer into revealing their relationship had succeeded.
