Huayu96: My Thirty Years of a Prodigal Son

Qin Sheng took ten seconds to calm himself down and came up with a plan.

Ten seconds is enough.

Having spent so many years in the entertainment industry in my past life, how could I not have some ability to adapt to changing circumstances?

He's encountered even more outrageous emergencies than this!

The principle for handling tonight's matter is actually very simple.

First and foremost, I absolutely cannot let Sister He Qing know that I have mistaken her for someone else.

Secondly, take advantage of He Qing's confused state of mind to firmly confess your feelings and turn the fake relationship into a real one!

Sister He must have some feelings for me.

Otherwise, even if the external environment was tense, she wouldn't have silently endured his barrage from beginning to end under such circumstances.

For me, it's not difficult to make a firm confession and turn a fake relationship into a real one.

I already had a good impression of Sister He Qing.

The challenge is to smooth out this somewhat awkward conversation without revealing any flaws.

After reviewing his prepared remarks and adjusting his expression, Qin Sheng rolled over and lay down next to He Qing, turning his head to look at her.

He Qing blushed and turned her face away, not daring to look at him.

"Sister He Qing," Qin Sheng said in a low and gentle voice, "don't be angry."

He Qing remained silent.

Qin Sheng continued, "I did misunderstand you, Sister He Qing, at first."

I think you are a principled person, and so am I. This kind of thing shouldn't have happened between us.

So I originally wanted to refuse.

He Qing couldn't help but turn around, her pretty face slightly flushed as she playfully scolded, "Then what did you do later...?"

What follows is too embarrassing to say; I simply cannot bring myself to say it.

Qin Sheng sighed, his tone carrying just the right amount of sincerity.

"Sister He Qing, actually I used to just admire and look up to you."

But you are so gentle and beautiful. This admiration and respect has, without me even realizing it, transformed into liking you after spending so much time together.

It's just that there's such a big difference in our social status that I have to hide this feeling in my heart.

But even if I hide it, Sister He Qing, you should be able to tell my feelings from my daily actions.

He Qing's eyes flickered slightly upon hearing this.

She believed what Qin Sheng said.

Because Qin Sheng treated her differently on set.

There are quite a few beautiful women in the film crew.

Excluding Pan Jinlian, Hu Sanniang, Lin Niangzi, Pan Qiaoyun, Yan Poxi, and Madam Liu were all very beautiful actresses.

But Qin Sheng never showed them any kindness or affection.

Only towards himself are they truly quite attentive and friendly.

She believed that Qin Sheng secretly liked her.

Seeing He Qing's eyes soften, Qin Sheng quickly pressed his advantage:

"Sister He Qing, I originally wanted to keep this feeling of affection hidden in my heart forever."

But tonight, you suddenly showed up at my door, and my principles clashed with my true feelings.

My principles tell me that I shouldn't have any improper thoughts about you.

But my true feelings tell me that I'm leaving soon, and if I don't seize this opportunity, I'll never have another chance to express my feelings to you, Sister He Qing.

Hearing that Qin Sheng was about to leave, He Qing's eyes softened even more.

Qin Sheng saw the change in He Qing's eyes and was secretly delighted.

Things are progressing more smoothly than I imagined!

It seems that Sister He Qing has a lot of affection for me!

Qin Sheng continued to gaze at He Qing with deep affection.

"Sister He Qing, do you know? I was upset for several days when you suddenly distanced yourself from me."

Later you treated me well again, and I was so happy that I couldn't sleep at night, tossing and turning.

My brother thought I had a fever, so he got up in the middle of the night to take my temperature.

He Qing finally couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.

But after laughing, he quickly put on a serious face.

"Stop trying to fool your sister with sweet talk!"

You're only eighteen! I'm already thirty!

How could you possibly really like me?

Qin Sheng retorted, unconvinced, "How is it impossible? Sister He Qing, you have no idea how charming you are!"

Known in the martial arts world as the most beautiful woman of classical times, who wouldn't want to marry such a woman?

He Qing finally calmed down and was able to speak normally.

She shook her head and said, "No, no, the two of us... this is too absurd!"

Qin Sheng chuckled and said softly, "Sister He Qing, didn't we already do something absurd just now?"

He Qing's face flushed red again.

He slapped Qin Sheng's arm.

"You still dare to talk back!"

Qin Sheng chuckled twice and then took the hand that He Qing had slapped at him.

He Qing struggled, but couldn't break free.

So she obediently let Qin Sheng hold her hand.

After a moment of silence, He Qing sighed softly and spoke.

"Qin Sheng, no matter what, we two are definitely not a good match."

What happened today... will only happen once, and will not be repeated.

Qin Sheng's lips twitched slightly.

This will not be repeated.

Just recently, he used the same words to righteously reject Wang Siyi.

I never imagined that this boomerang would one day come back to haunt me.

With a wry smile, Qin Sheng knew he had passed this hurdle.

But it's probably impossible to convince this traditional older sister to face their relationship squarely.

"Okay." He nodded. "Sister, I have expressed all my feelings. If you really can't accept it, then I respect your decision."

He Qing finally regained her composure as an older sister.

He calmly got up and dressed.

Looking back at Qin Sheng, He Qing bent down and gently pecked Qin Sheng's lips.

Then she chuckled and said, "You brat, don't you dare try to covet your sister again! Go live your own life!"

Qin Sheng nodded, his heart filled with mixed feelings.

"Well... I'll be going now."

He Qing got up and went to the door, pressing his ear against it to listen.

After confirming that there was no movement in the corridor, he gently opened the door and quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor.

The door closed.

Qin Sheng lay on the bed and sighed with a sense of loss.

Although she was saying sweet words, she knew in her heart that it was absolutely impossible for her and Sister He Qing to be together.

This is also why she didn't persist after He Qing rejected her.

But after having such a deep relationship with this gentle and kind older sister, Qin Sheng felt that he would probably never forget her for the rest of his life!

After sighing for a moment, Qin Sheng slapped his forehead and quickly glanced at the clock on the wall.

It's 10:20.

I almost forgot, I still have a secret rendezvous to attend!

Wang Siyi is waiting for him at the hotel in town!

Putting aside his distracting thoughts, Qin Sheng went to wash up again.

Having been a wanderer in his past life, he starts this life playing the role of a wanderer again.

It seems that fate has decreed that I will not be a law-abiding person in this life.

After a quick wash and a change of clothes, Qin Sheng quietly left the dormitory building and headed discreetly towards the town.

When I opened the door, Wang Siyi was lying on the bed, idly flipping through a newspaper.

When Qin Sheng came in, she gave him a disapproving glance.

"Where have you been? I've been waiting for over an hour."

Qin Sheng casually replied, "The power's out in the dorm, and a bunch of people are making a racket in the hallway, so I can't get out."

Wang Siyi tilted her head, but didn't press the matter further.

Power outages are all too common these days.

"Alright, let's do it then." Wang Siyi put down her newspaper. "You'd better make up for the time you've missed..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Sheng covered his mouth with his.

"I won't miss a second of your time!"
