Chapter 24: 24
Ji Shiting looked at her and said, “Then why did you reject my marriage proposal the other day?”
“That proposal came as a shock… But the more I thought about it, the more I regretted it . ” Ye Shengge smiled and said . “I didn’t expect someone to drug me yesterday, even less that you would help me, so I reckon that’s destiny . ”
“Ms . Ye Shengge,” said the man . “I don’t like being treated like a fool, and I don’t want to be used . ”
Ye Shengge was dazed .
He would definitely think she was using him if she told him the real reason… The man would mind it, but she couldn’t gain his trust without telling him the truth .
Ji Shiting smiled and walked into the shower room .
Ye Shengge kept pondering how to explain, hearing the sounds of water coming from the shower room .
Before she could figure it out, that man had walked out of the bathroom, wearing a suit .
The man was exquisite…
“Actually, we don’t have to marry each other,” said Ye Shengge . “I feel like marriage is a big deal… Actually, I’m more than satisfied with being your woman . I can be here anytime you want!”

She realized she had been behaving like an idiot before . Her intention was to sleep with that man, and marriage didn’t matter at all .
Ji Shiting looked at her while buttoning his shirt, “So, you just want to sleep with me?”
“Yes… Well no…” Ji Shiting couldn’t even articulate herself . “Even though I can’t win your heart, I can at least win your body . ”
Ji Shiting gazed at her .
There must be something that she is hiding .
He then looked at her cheek . That birthmark was still red, however… Suddenly, an explanation came into his mind .

That birthmark seemed to be smaller than it had been last time he had seen her .
“What do you think?” Ye Shengge asked as she was worried that he might see through her . “That’s not outrageous, is it?”
“I heard that you’re interested in the lead actress choice?” Ji Shiting suddenly changed the topic . “What if I give you the right to make the decision?”

“Really?” Ye Shengge’s eyes gleamed . “What about me being the lead actress?”
“Really?” Ji Shiting couldn’t look more solemn . “Are you saying you’ve found a way to deal with your birthmark?”
Ji Shiting sounded very affirmative .
Ye Shengge’s heart sank as she reckoned he might’ve figured it out .
Especially when he was staring at her, it was as if he could see through every single thought she had .
“How can it be . ” Ye Shengge licked her lips . “I would’ve dealt with it if I had . All I need is more foundation and concealer, then I can cover the birthmark . ”
“Really?” Ji Shiting curled his lips .
That woman would always subconsciously lick her lips when she was lying .
Although the assumption sounded ridiculous, it was the most likely explanation, otherwise, nothing could explain why that woman was so passionate about him out of nowhere .

Which meant… That woman was using him as a cure .

No wonder she had jumped up out of excitement in the bathroom just now .
Ugh…
Ji Shiting didn’t know why he had gotten so upset as he was always aloof, and he’d never cared whether women liked him or not .
Ye Shengge looked at him, terrified . She said, “Anyway… It’s a minor issue… What do you think?”
Ji Shiting stared at her, smiled and said, “No problem”
Ye Shengge clenched her fist .
Even if she couldn’t get rid of the birthmark just then, getting the role was still good news to her .
As long as the major investor said yes, she could do the shooting with a heavy makeup .

“But I have one condition . ” Ji Shiting saw how exhilarated she was .
“What condition? I’ll agree to anything . ” Ye Shengge blushed .
“Stop hounding me,” said Ji Shiting . “Otherwise, I’ll tell them to change the lead actress . ”
Ye Shengge was dazed, like someone poured a pot of cold water on her .
JI Shiting said sneakily, “Acting is your ultimate goal, isn’t it?”
And then, he turned around and left .
Ye Shengge stared at his back, and then, she came to the realization that Ji Shiting must’ve figured out the truth .
