Fuck! She really beat up Qiao Yu, and so badly, when Qiao Yu comes to his senses, wouldn’t he eat her alive?!
Jian Ning’s heart was pounding loudly, before Qiao Yu could speak, she suddenly turned and ran, leaving only one sentence: “I’m going to study the script!”
Qiao Yu: “………”
Qiao Yu took a deep breath.
Really, if not for his incredible patience, even without an alternate personality making him foolish, he would have been driven mad by Jian Ning long ago!
Chi Mo, watching from the side, had seen the whole drama and could see that Qiao Yu’s feelings for this girl were not ordinary, but with Jian Ning present, he didn’t expose it.
Now that Jian Ning had gone to study the script, Chi Mo smiled and said: “Mr. Qiao, don’t you feel that you actually care about Miss Jian?”
Qiao Yu’s heart skipped a beat, instinctively retorting: “That’s the alternate personality influencing me, not me.”
Chi Mo sighed: “Mr. Qiao, you shouldn’t attribute everything to the alternate personality.”
Qiao Yu looked at him, puzzled.
Chi Mo said: “If your willpower hadn’t loosened, the alternate personality wouldn’t have sensed the danger, nor would it have desperately tried to merge with you.”
“In fact, you actively revealed murderous intent to the alternate personality.”
Qiao Yu frowned: “Dr. Chi, you…”
“Mr. Qiao, stop denying it.” Chi Mo interrupted him, looking into his eyes, firmly yet gently: “You like Miss Jian.”
After hearing this, Qiao Yu’s gaze wavered, and in his heart, he was actually starting to sense something, just unwilling to admit it.
He didn’t believe he could like a woman like Jian Ning.
But…
If he really didn’t like her, why did his heartbeat go crazy after Chi Mo said that sentence, jumping around unstably, making him involuntarily panic?
Qiao Yu closed his eyes, perhaps… it was still due to the alternate personality’s influence?
It should be, right?
After all, just yesterday, he particularly disliked Jian Ning and looked down on her.
…Would he fall for a woman in just one day?
What a joke!
It must be the alternate personality’s fault!
Chi Mu said: “The character setting and love story about Song Hao that you previously read was actually written by me.”
Jian Ning was stunned: “Ah?”
She had thought it was a story from an alternate personality’s personal experience…
Chi Mu laughed: “I’m not professional enough, I could only write randomly based on the alternate personality’s character, but Miss Jian is different – you’re professionally trained and definitely better at this, so…”
“Could you write the script this time?”
“Me, write it?” Jian Ning was silent for a moment.
Writing a sweet love script about Song Hao and the alternate personality…
She gritted her teeth and nodded: “Fine! I’ll write it!”
Even if it gave her goosebumps, she must cure Qiao Yu’s condition quickly so she could go act sooner.
Chi Mu thanked her and left.
Jian Ning got right to work, quickly running upstairs to write the script.
After much deliberation and editing, she finished the script before lunch and immediately went to show Qiao Yu.
Qiao Yu was surprised why Jian Ning would write this script, but after flipping through it, he agreed to the plan.
But whether due to Chi Mu’s few words or the alternate personality’s mischief, he now felt somewhat uncomfortable facing Jian Ning.
Lunch was initiated by Qiao Yu himself, though he couldn’t explain why – it was just an instinctive action.
By the time the dishes were cooked and served, Qiao Yu stood by the table in an apron, looking at the sumptuous spread, and his face suddenly turned green.
Who knows what madness made him suddenly cook for Jian Ning!
It must, absolutely, definitely be the alternate personality causing trouble!!!
Main Text, Chapter 22: Embarrassed Frenzy
Jian Ning was somewhat surprised but didn’t investigate further, thinking it was a doctor’s suggestion for Qiao Yu and not wanting to interfere.
After the meal, Qiao Yu handed Jian Ning a script – a massive production by the Qiao Group, tailor-made for her, with everything prepared for her to join the production immediately.
Jian Ning quickly took it, surprised and delighted: “You agreed to let me go?”
Qiao Yu’s heartbeat paused for a moment, and he awkwardly hummed in agreement.
“Thank you,” Jian Ning was too excited, never expecting this turn of events!
Earlier, Qiao Yu had refused completely, even using threats. She thought the matter was dead. Yet after a meal, not only did he agree, but he also quickly prepared a script for her.
Jian Ning immediately opened it to see that the director was Wang Er.
Since transmigrating into this body and finding herself locked in a psychiatric hospital, Jian Ning had been dreaming of entering the entertainment industry.
She would search for information about entertainment circle personalities whenever she had free time. Though not extremely detailed, she knew something about anyone with some fame.
Wang Er was the most famous genius director in the circle.
His directing angles were particularly tricky. Works from his hands always carried deep meanings about society, education, family, friendship, love, and life. Every time his films were released, audiences would leave the theater with various profound feelings.
Some had commented that any work from Wang Er was guaranteed to be a hit, with exceptional quality.
With Wang Er involved, it was definitely a major production.
However…
Jian Ning stared at Qiao Yu’s unusually friendly expression and inexplicably felt goosebumps.
Qiao Yu suddenly being so kind to her – voluntarily cooking and finding her a major production, arranging her acting opportunity, being considerate everywhere – seemed suspicious.
…Could there be some big conspiracy waiting for her?
Qiao Yu, seeing she had finished reading, immediately asked: “How’s the script? Do you like it?”
“……” Jian Ning felt even more strange, “Liking it or not aside, I don’t understand – weren’t you against it before?”
There had to be a reason for his sudden change of mind.
Otherwise, she couldn’t feel at ease.
“I was wrong before,” Qiao Yu was silent for a moment, then surprisingly apologized: “I was afraid you would run away, so I refused.”
Jian Ning was speechless.
Qiao Yu was actually afraid of this?
He finally realized his issues were serious, and people were reluctant to stay around him?
Jian Ning reluctantly believed his explanation. Though still feeling something was off, the acting opportunity was rare, and she had to seize it immediately.
Who knew if Qiao Yu would change his mind again.
Jian Ning happily took the script and left.
Qiao Yu sat alone, staring at his hand, his face slightly unnaturally red.
Could Chi Mu be right? In less than two days, he had fallen for Jian Ning?
Thinking of “falling for”, Qiao Yu’s heart raced uncontrollably. But amid his excitement, he felt he shouldn’t fall for Jian Ning so quickly.
If Jian Ning truly attracted him, why hadn’t he been attracted during their two-year marriage?
Qiao Yu still suspected the alternate personality’s emotions were causing this.
At first, the alternate personality was emotionless, gathering all of his negative emotions. Weak, timid, and moody, once he latched onto a trusted person, he would cling like an octopus, never letting go. For those he cared about, he would be utterly devoted, lowering his stance completely, without a shred of male dignity.
It was his insistence that Dr. Chi hypnotize the alternate personality, making him believe he had fallen in love with someone named Song Hao.
Originally, he wanted to use this to completely erase the alternate personality. But after Chi Mu left, Qiao Yu, unusually, began to hesitate.
