However, looking at his noble appearance, she didn’t know if his cooking skills would cause the kitchen to explode or if she could enjoy the meal without worry.
Shen Mubei did not mind what she said. He took a new pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet and handed them to her. “Wait for me here. The TV and computer can be used. You can also read whatever books you want.”
Xiao Qing nodded. After changing into the slippers, she walked over and looked at the books. Most of them were related to finance and showed signs of long-term flipping.
However, everything here looked very new. It did not look like someone often stayed here.
After sitting for a while, she got bored and walked toward the kitchen.
Shen Mubei was cooking calmly. A strong fragrance wafted out.
He turned around and raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw Xiao Qing.
“I’m here to see if there’s anything I can do.”
“Wash the green peppers over there,” Shen Mubei said.
“Oh, okay.” Xiao Qing took the green peppers and turned on the tap. The smell of food behind her wafted out.
She stood with her back facing Shen Mubei. She could clearly see that he was wearing a white shirt and an apron, revealing his strong and muscular forearms. Veins were bulging on his well-defined fingers.
As she was thinking about something, more and more water was poured out.
When the water overflowed, Xiao Qing realized that there was too much water.
The hand behind her helped her turn off the tap. A towel was accurately thrown over to stop the spreading water. The water stopper was pulled out, and the water flowed away quickly.
“I’m sorry,” Xiao Qing quickly said.
In response, he wrapped his strong arms around her and brought her over to face him.
Meeting his gaze, Xiao Qing saw her figure in his eyes. Her eyes welled up with tears.
Shen Mubei grabbed her waist and lowered his head to kiss her.
The chaotic kiss carried a strong invasive feeling. It was very domineering but not disgusting.
Xiao Qing quickly accepted his erosion, but her heart was tense.
Just as she was about to lose control, she gently pushed him away. “Alright, I’m here for dinner.’
Shen Mubei let go of her.
The grip loosened, and Xiao Qing’s heart felt a little empty.
“Dinner is ready.”
“But the green peppers…”
As Xiao Qing spoke, she saw that there were already four dishes and a soup on the dining table.
She didn’t even know when he finished cooking.
“I’m sorry, I took too long washing the green peppers.”
“You don’t have to be sorry.” Shen Mubei reached out and wiped away the messy lipstick mark on her lips. “Besides, you looked very beautiful when you were washing the vegetables.”
With that, he picked up the food and walked out.
Xiao Qing pursed her lips and smiled. She picked up the other dishes and followed him.
The relationship between the two of them seemed to be really different.
After dinner, Shen Mubei washed the dishes while Xiao Qing stood beside him to help.
“So, do you come and stay here often?”
“Not often. I stay at home most of the time. I only come here occasionally when I work overtime.”
Xiao Qing nodded.
“But if you accompany me, I don’t mind moving out.”
Xiao Qing:
She didn’t reply for a moment.
Fortunately, Shen Mubei did not expect her to answer and continued to wash the dishes unhurriedly.
By the time they were done cleaning up in the kitchen, it was already late.
Xiao Qing went to get her bag and planned to leave.
When she heard her phone ring, she immediately picked it up.
Xinyue’s voice came from the other end. “Sister Xiao Qing, quickly take a look at Weibo.”
“What happened?”
“I can’t say. Hurry up and take a look. If you need help, call me back. I still have some night scenes to shoot.”
Xiao Qing immediately opened Weibo. When she saw the contents, her mind exploded.
Zhao Xinshu was the one who posted on Weibo. She posted many photos of her with Shen Mubei. There were photos of the two of them together, photos of them having dinner together, a few Weibo posts, and dozens of other photos. The two of them must have been together for at least two years.
Her last Weibo post called out Xiao Qing. [Xiao Qing, we’re both women. Why should women make things difficult for fellow women? You think you can tie him down by getting pregnant, but if you do that, other women can do the same to you. Have you thought about how you’ll be treated by others in the future? Perhaps you two have a good relationship now and are sweet, but that man abandoned his girlfriend whom he had dated for a long time for you. How do you know that you won’t be next?]
It was obvious that the legitimate partner was fighting with the mistress.
The netizens loved gossip like this. Hence, the topic immediately rushed to the top of the trending searches, followed by the word ‘explosive’.
The netizens’ comments were even more heartbreaking. [Previously, Xiao Qing’s pregnancy was also on the trending searches. It turns out that she resorted to getting pregnant to snatch away someone else’s boyfriend!]
[Previously, when I watched I Am An Actor, Xiao Qing said she had a hard time because of Zhang Xi’s work attitude, right? Well, it seems that Zhang Xi only got third place because of her, an unprofessional second-rate screenwriter. It turns out that not only is she unprofessional, but her private life is also so messy.]
[I saw it too. To think that I liked her at that time. I didn’t expect her character to be so bad when she’s so good-looking.]
[It’s obvious what kind of person she is. Tsk, tsk, tsk.]
[She wrote Love Is Man Tianxing? I think this drama is done for!]
[The producers might as well stop filming while they haven’t filmed much. Otherwise, I’ll feel disgusted when I remember that the drama was written by a mistress.]
[What does a mistress know about love? Don’t be an insult to romance dramas!]
Xiao Qing was in a daze. She was only slightly involved in the entertainment industry and had no experience dealing with such things.
Moreover, Zhao Xinshu was right. The timing of her appearance was indeed wrong.
This was what she minded the most back then.
Initially, she thought that time would dilute everything, so she paid the corresponding price.
However, the accusations and criticisms still came as expected.
“Qing Qing, what’s the matter?” Shen Mubei asked when he saw her pale face.
Xiao Qing handed him the phone.
Shen Mubei glanced at it and understood the current situation.
He frowned deeply.
Xiao Qing pursed her lips. “I do deserve to be scolded, don’t I? Back then, my appearance caused a problem between the two of you. Even though the matter has passed, I still can’t escape this responsibility.” Her voice was bitter and dry.
“Qing Qing, it’s not your fault. I didn’t handle it well.”
“But she’s right. After what I did to her, others can do the same to me in the future. Since you treated her like that, there’s a chance you’ll treat me like that too..”
