After rebirth, she first killed the book thief, and she was busy writing articles to save people
Chapter 196 No "Consent", Only "Acquiescence"
Lu Tian chose to give in and no longer insist.
He pressed the elevator button for his floor, waited for the elevator to arrive, and walked in. At the end, he said, "Senior sister, your heart seems to be unwarm."
"Do you think you're playing the role of the little white flower in the domineering president falling in love with me?"
"I……"
Lu Tian pressed the elevator door. Jiang Baige thought that if someone was anxiously waiting for the elevator now, he would have already cursed.
Their worldviews were always so parallel. He always wanted to talk about love with her, but she had lost her interest in this matter.
She crossed her arms, smiled and asked him, "Do you know what I hate most about that sentence just now?"
"overbearing?"
"No, I just couldn't help but want to explain that this CEO is a woman..."
The implication was that she was the domineering one, and he was the one begging to be loved - but she was not sure whether Lu Tian understood.
But it is not important.
Because a man who is used to being the center of the world cannot really understand. At least Lu Tian can't.
Lu Tian lowered his head dejectedly and released his hand that was pressing the elevator door switch.
Jiang Baige suddenly felt as if someone was watching her.
She looked around, she was the only one here. She walked out of the elevator again. It was not the peak time for the hotel, the front desk was drowsy, and occasionally a few waiters passed by, and when they saw her, they would nod slightly, and then walk forward without looking away.
Nothing strange...
But the feeling of being stared at was very strong and definitely not some kind of illusion. Moreover, she did not drink alcohol today.
She walked a few steps further and came to the huge floor-to-ceiling glass in the hotel lobby. Outside the glass window, the darkness formed a sharp contrast with the brightness of the lobby at the moment. But soon, her eyes adjusted to the darkness outside the window.
Although there aren't many people coming and going outside, this is a film and television city after all. There are people filming, delivering food, fans waiting to see the stars, paparazzi observing the stars preparing to make big news, and tourists coming to visit... The street lights are bright, and there are still quite a few people on the street.
At this moment, there was a commotion outside. It seemed that a star got off the nanny car, and the long-awaited fans rushed up to give gifts and ask for autographs.
Someone forgot to turn off the flash, and the star squinted his eyes slightly. Some fans jumped out to criticize, some loudly refuted, and the situation became a mess.
The feeling of being watched disappeared.
Jiang Baige rubbed her cold arms and decided to go back to sleep. After all, she had worked for most of the day for no apparent reason and was extremely tired.
Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, she was awakened by the sound of banging on the door.
At first she thought she was dreaming, but the knocking on the door showed no sign of stopping, so she climbed out of bed sleepily.
"It's me, White Dove...it's me!"
She finally heard clearly that it was Shi Xin's voice, but it was very vague. Fortunately, the hotel corridor was brightly lit, and through the peephole, she confirmed who was coming, so she put down the anti-theft chain and opened the door.
"What are you doing here in the middle of the night?" Jiang Baige covered her mouth and nose, "And you stink of alcohol!"
Shi Xin rushed over, hugged Jiang Baige, and kissed her without saying a word.
Jiang Baige was startled and punched him - after all, she had been practicing Muay Thai for two years, and had not dared to waste it except for the time when Yao Jing was unwell.
It comes in handy now.
After being punched by Jiang Baige, Shi Xin took a few steps back and seemed to be mostly sober.
"You're really heavy-handed."
"Normal level." Jiang Baige did not put down his fist, and quickly moved to a favorable position close to the door handle. "Do you want to leave by yourself, or should I call the security guard to ask you to leave?"
"Do you think our relationship is this serious?"
It seems that he is still drunk.
"We are just friends... You don't think that I owe you anything just because you found a hotel for me and threatened to reimburse my travel expenses when I came to the film and television city, do you?"
Shi Xin didn't say anything, but his expression was asking, "Isn't it?"
"Of course not." Jiang Baige pulled the door handle. "I came here to get news about Senior Sister Jing, and... at that time, I at least regarded you as a friend."
"but now……"
"I know you're drunk, but being drunk isn't an excuse to do stupid things. As for the rest, we can talk about it when you're sober."
Shi Xin stood there for a while, then finally raised his foot.
As soon as he took a step out, Jiang Baige slammed the door.
The uninvited guest left, and Jiang Baige no longer felt sleepy.
She turned on the bedside lamp and took out a novel from her bag. She read it all night until she fell asleep at dawn and woke up at almost noon.
There were two text messages from Shi Xin in her phone. There was no inappropriate behavior from the day before - no apology either. She just asked her if she wanted to go to the crew to help, maybe she could even see Lu Tian’s new girlfriend.
The girl is said to be the third female lead in the play, playing Lu Tian's sister. She has many rival scenes. Although she is obsessed with the male lead in the play, she is actually acting out her fake relationship with her "brother" outside of the play.
Jiang Baige was not very interested in this matter, but she was really interested in the things happening in the crew.
After all, articles about the entertainment industry are an evergreen topic.
With the emergence of 2.08 million and the rampant legal scholars, everyone is "democratizing" and their interest in this circle is growing. For a while, the film and television adaptations of entertainment industry articles almost occupied half of the TV series.
If she could get a share of this pie, Jiang Baige would wake up laughing in her dreams.
However, Jiang Baige was really upset about what happened the night before and didn't want to see Lu Tian on the set, so she declined.
She booked a flight for the next day, arranged a car, and went to the airport alone. Before boarding the plane, she sent screenshots of the payment information for the two flights to Shi Xin.
The money is not a must, but the attitude is necessary.
Because she couldn't get over it: this trip yielded almost no results. She didn't get much useful information about Jingchai (although she called to ask about it later), nor did she get an autographed photo. Instead, she worked as a free laborer for a day, and was harassed by Lu Tian and frightened by Shi Xin.
Whether it was Lu Tian or Ruan Yu, not to mention Yao Jing, now even Shi Xin...
He invited her, and he also promised to pay for her; but when she came, they made up more things on their own. Even she herself was wondering: Is this the "end" of "being greedy for small gains"?
If that's the case, then why are there no such messy "additions" in her interactions with her female friends?
She was really fed up with the moral shackles imposed on women - after being imprisoned for so long, even she began to believe them.
The fact is, women have no right to say "disagree" because their every move will be interpreted as "consent."
Jiang Baige glanced out the window and left behind those handsome guys who only had a good appearance but were still rotten and smelly inside...
