He curled his lips and said magnanimously: “Since this is your first offense, I’ll just punish you by making you eat this meal.”
Jian Ning: “……”
Jian Ning threw down her chopsticks and stood up to leave: “I’ll go out to eat.”
It’s just a meal, she doesn’t have to eat at home.
“Stop right there!”
Qiao Yu’s face instantly darkened: “If you dare walk out that door, forget about ever filming again.”
“……”
Jian Ning turned back with a headache, now completely certain that this was the main personality.
She was unhappy: “When did you wake up?”
Qiao Yu’s fingertips stiffened slightly, subconsciously responding: “Just now.”
……In fact, he had been awake since returning from the film set.
Though he didn’t want to admit it, he had been angry the entire afternoon after hearing that phone call, and was still feeling upset inside, just not showing it.
As for the dish Jian Ning was eating……
It wasn’t actually a punishment at all. The reason it was so salty was because he had been crying while cooking.
Just thinking about it made Qiao Yu blush with guilt. He hadn’t felt embarrassed while crying, his mind was full of grievance and anger, wanting to dismember that man from the film set. But after crying, especially when recalling it in front of Jian Ning, he felt an indescribable sense of shame.
Of course, his crying was completely involuntary. With the alternate personality inside him, given his level of fondness for Jian Ning, crying like a fool was understandable.
And after cooking, lying in the fish tank and pretending to attempt suicide – at first, he truly had the impulse to time a call to Jian Ning, make her come back immediately, then cut himself to scare her, to see if she would dare treat him this way.
With the knife ready, a small voice in his mind reminded him that this would terrify Jian Ning, and if she became too angry and abandoned him, wouldn’t that mean the wild man had succeeded?
Thinking this, Qiao Yu couldn’t bring himself to cut, and feeling unwilling, he finally came up with that childish idea……
In any case, all of this was the alternate personality’s fault, Qiao Yu thought coldly. He was at most an accomplice.
