Internet moguls are being held hostage by the entertainment system!
Chapter 437 I have my own judgment about what kind of person you are.
Chapter 437 I have my own judgment about what kind of person you are.
Opening the chat window reveals a deluge of messages, like Tetris blocks stacked on top of each other.
Chen Xiu swiped up the screen, starting with the first line, then slowly swiped down, her calm, watery eyes reflecting the strings of text.
He swiped all the way to the bottom and locked the screen with his thumb. His expression then became dark and complicated.
Standing to the side, Luo Shikan couldn't help but show a hint of doubt when he saw Chen Xiu's appearance.
Boss, are you having second thoughts?
After spending a long time together, Luo Shikan believed he had a certain understanding of Chen Xiu's personality.
He rarely saw emotions like hesitation, indecision, or agonizing on Chen Xiu's face.
However, the way his brows furrowed, relaxed, and then furrowed again clearly indicated that he was conflicted...
"Little Luo".
"Boss, what's wrong?"
"Go and book two rooms first, give me the key to one of them, and then you can stay in one by yourself. We'll leave tomorrow."
"Okay, is there anything else I need to prepare?"
Chen Xiu thought for a moment, then ordered an extra bottle of whiskey and turned back to the private room to wait.
Luo Shikan went downstairs, booked a room, handed the whiskey and room key to Chen Xiu, and went to another room to rest.
Subsequently, Nezha, who had already booked a room upstairs, also received a reply from Chen Xiu...
……
At 1 a.m., it is the time when one is most sleepy.
However, Nezha woke up from his sleep after noticing the noise.
Looking at the empty bed, she loosened the almost torn sheets, wiped the faint tear stains from her face, and turned to search the room.
After finding nothing, Nazar's gaze fell on the crack in the ajar door, where light was seeping in.
She bit her lower lip lightly, her delicate brows furrowed slightly, as she tried to catch the faint sounds coming from outside the door.
After confirming that Chen Xiu had not left, Nezha's previously dejected face suddenly lit up with intense joy.
She threw off the covers and jumped out of bed.
As a result, the moment those two slender, fair feet touched the cashmere carpet in the room, they almost collapsed forward from exhaustion.
Holding onto the edge of the bed, Nazar used his knees to support himself on the soft carpet and sat down to rest.
After a long while, having regained some strength, she slowly got up, picked up the bathrobe that had fallen on the carpet, put it on, and walked barefoot and unsteadily out of the room.
Upon arriving at the suite's living room, Nazar first glanced at the night view outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.
The lights across the Liangma River in the distance shone through the black veil of night mist, creating a hazy, luminous effect.
After being distracted by the night view for a moment, Nezha immediately focused her attention and quickly searched the living room with her bright eyes.
The next moment, her gaze froze on the sofa.
The arched floor lamp next to the sofa was lit, its warm light enveloping the gray carpet beneath the sofa and half of Chen Xiu's body.
Chen Xiu, who was quite a sight, was sitting with his legs crossed, one hand on the back of the sofa and the other holding a wine glass.
The twist of the wrist caused the ice cubes in the glass to spin, creating a crisp, clinking sound as the glass clinked together...
The sound stopped, the elbow slightly bent, and Naza's gaze followed the wine glass, moving upwards to Chen Xiu's face, looking at the straight nose, the deep, dark eyes, the prominent brow ridge, the straight, arched eyebrows...
He seems to have become even more handsome than before.
It's become even more powerful.
Nezha pursed her lower lip, her eyes clear and bright like a fawn in the forest, her emotions a mixture of anticipation and unease.
Chen Xiu had already heard the rustling sounds coming from behind him.
However, the cessation of activity made him curious about what Nazha was planning to do next.
After waiting for a long time without any movement, he simply turned his head to look.
"Hey!"
Originally feeling uneasy, Nezha suddenly met Chen Xiu's gaze, making her feel embarrassed that her thoughts had been seen through, and then she cried out in panic.
Chen Xiu tilted her head slightly, puzzled by the commotion she was making: "Should I leave?"
"Don't!"
Nezha uttered a single word, then, disregarding his physical discomfort, he jogged towards Chen Xiu.
However, physical conditions are something you can ignore, but they won't disappear.
As she took her third step, the moment Nazar's right foot touched the sofa carpet, a wave of weakness overwhelmed her muscle control, causing her to stumble forward.
At this distance, given this reaction, all Chen Xiu could do was spread her arms to prevent the wine in her glass from splashing onto her.
"His~~"
The soft carpet swallowed most of the impact and noise. Nezha, kneeling and supporting Chen Xiu's knees with his hands, anxiously tried to get up.
Seeing this, Chen Xiu used his free hand to grab the belt of her nightgown, and with a little force, lifted Na Zha into his arms.
"Ok?"
Before he could figure out what was going on, he felt his body briefly lifted into the air. When he opened his eyes, he met Chen Xiu's gaze.
Their eyes met, and Chen Xiu still didn't understand what was happening. Nezha blinked, but she didn't understand either. However, not understanding didn't stop her from acting on her own whims.
Following her true feelings, Nezha leaned her head on Chen Xiu's shoulder like a willow swaying in the breeze, and hugged his chest and back tightly with both hands.
She buried her face in Chen Xiu's neck and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, yet with extraordinary joy, "Chen Xiu, I'm holding you again."
"Hmm...your hair is making me a little itchy..."
"Sorry, I didn't mean to."
Nezha quickly looked up to apologize, then hurriedly tidied his already disheveled hair.
Chen Xiu glanced at her, but instead of reaching out to help tidy up like she did with Meng Ziyi and Su Xiao, she continued drinking her chilled whiskey.
His gaze remained deep and unfathomable, but not bewildered.
From the moment she replied to Naza's message and called her to her room, Chen Xiu was fully prepared for everything that followed, and she accepted it with equanimity.
Sometimes, those involved are blinded by their own perspective, and Chen Xiu was no exception.
He believed he could calmly view his relationship with Naza and accept the fact that they had broken up.
However, if he really didn't care, given his personality, he would have already set Nezha's WeChat chat to invisible. When it comes to unrelated people, he doesn't hesitate at all.
After fixing her hair, Nezha clasped her hands together, her lips trembling, her eyes fixed intently on Chen Xiu.
"Um, the message I just sent you, saying that if you don't come, I'll quit the entertainment industry and go home to go on blind dates, that was all made up..."
"I know."
"Yes, I broke up with you. No, after we broke up, I stayed at Tangren and didn't date anyone else..."
"I know."
"Huh? You've been paying attention to me all along, so why were you like that before...?"
Nezha first widened her eyes in surprise, then her voice grew softer and softer, as if she was worried that this topic would create a rift in her newly harmonious relationship with Chen Xiu.
However, Chen Xiu's attitude seemed very calm.
"The reason I treated you that way before was mainly because we had been separated for so long, and I had a new girlfriend, so it was fine for us to maintain this kind of relationship."
"However, after seeing those exaggerated messages you sent just now, I'm sure I still care about you. Since that's the case, I'll accept it calmly."
"We've already talked enough, there's no need to talk about it again."
Upon hearing this, and recalling everything that had just happened, a sudden, intense burning sensation surged within Naza's heart, turning her neck and ears bright red.
Once her ears started to cool down, Nezha reached out and hugged Chen Xiu again, asking expectantly, "So, what is our relationship now?"
"...This is a difficult question; I need to think about it carefully."
"Actually, I think this is fine, as long as you don't ignore me like before."
"Oh, no."
Now that she had come to terms with her inner thoughts, Chen Xiu didn't bother to pretend or hide them. It was just that the amount of Naza was indeed not as good as the others.
Hearing Chen Xiu's promise, Nezha's eyes lit up, and she leaned over to kiss him on the cheek, then grabbed Chen Xiu's hand and pulled him into her arms.
"Um, I feel like we could do it again..."
"Forget it! Your physical strength was never as good as mine to begin with, and now it's even worse."
Chen Xiu shook his head and declined, but it wasn't necessary to repeatedly take the car out for races.
Nezha hugged him even tighter, as if he would disappear if she let go.
Bathed in the warm light cast by the arched floor lamp, the two chatted as they sought a long-lost sense of familiarity.
Nezha intentionally steered the conversation toward Chen Xiu's experience when she started Didi.
From some examples she mentioned, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Chen Xiu guessed that she must have specifically researched these matters. Then, Na Zha's refusal to mention Dou Yin's choice also proved that she was not entirely brainless.
Since the two had only just broken the ice, mentioning Douyin and TikTok rashly would inevitably make Chen Xiu overthink things.
Since Didi is a thing of the past, Nezha bringing it up in chat will not arouse Chen Xiu's suspicion. Instead, it will prove that she has really put in the effort to understand Chen Xiu's past, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
After discussing the business aspects that she wasn't very familiar with, Nazar pursed her lips and naturally brought up a topic that could rekindle their relationship.
"Chen Xiu, should I terminate my contract with Tangren and join your company?"
How long is left on your agency contract?
"Yes, two and a half years."
How did the Tang people treat you?
In Chen Xiu's view, two and a half years was actually only one year. If Na Zha was doing well at Tangren, there was no need to go to great lengths to terminate the contract.
"It's alright. I'm the top female star in the company now. If I don't want to take a role, Sister K can't force me to, so I'm quite comfortable."
"Then stay here for now! If there are any resources that suit you, I'll have someone arrange them. If you don't want to accept them, you can refuse directly."
"I'm not trying to get back together with you for resources or anything else..."
"It doesn't matter! I will judge for myself what kind of person you are, and you also have the right to choose how to get along with me."
Chen Xiu turned her head to look at Nezha and asked, "Since you've been chatting with Reba, you should know about my situation, right?"
Nazar responded to this question with his actions, leaving the living room in a murmur of uncertainty.
