Mu Cheng sucked in a deep breath. âWhy did you go with Ji Mingxiu through the back door?â
âHe stopped me by the toilets, saying that he wanted to talk to me. He was clearly trying to say that he wanted me to sleep with him for opportunities. So I was so angry that I wanted to drag him to a place where no one could see, and then beat him up. But in the end, it seems like someone already planned to beat him up so I was caught in the fire.â Tang Xiao explained.
Mu Cheng suddenly stood up, his face cold.
âTang Xiao, can you not be so impulsive? Is it because Chief Ning dotes on you so much? So much that you have no awareness for danger at all? This isnât a game. You canât just roll up your sleeves and fight just because youâre unhappy. In game, the only consequences are that if you die, youâll return to the restore point. But thatâs not in real life, have you even thought about what could happen if something happened to you!â Mu Chengâs expression was dark as his eyes were like ink.
This was the first time that Tang Xiao had seen Mu Cheng like this.
In her memories, Mu Cheng was forever a warm gentleman.
Even when Tang Xiao made him angry, heâd never be angry at her like this.
Mu Cheng really was furious this time.
Tang Xiao had been protected too well.
She had no idea how dirty the entertainment circle was, so it was lucky that the one she met was Ji Mingxiu, someone who looked strong on the outside but was actually weak.
Otherwise, if she met someone else âŠ
Just thinking about it made Mu Cheng feel as if his heart was being strung up.
Tang Xiao really was like the character she played, An Ran, thinking that the world that her father presented her, was exactly like what the real world was like.
So she was very clean, when everyone else wore a mask to face the world, Tang Xiao could fearlessly be herself.
She could laugh out loud, act coquettishly, and face the world sincerely.
Mu Cheng really couldnât do anything.
This type of Tang Xiao, living cleanly and happily, was his whole world, like a little sun.
She was bright and warm, making him unable to reject her.
But right now, Tang Xiao was like a little puppy that had been kicked out.
Her ears were dangled down, carefully tugging his sleeve lightly, âIâm sorry, I was too impulsive. He said things that were too mean so I couldnât help but want to beat him up. I definitely wonât do it next time. Mu Cheng, hug me.â
It was like Tang Xiao was using a feather to lightly brush against his heart.
Mu Cheng pulled her into his arms, pressing her against his beating heart. âItâs lucky that nothing happened.â
Heâll just have to protect her then, even if there isnât a Chief Ning, isnât he here?
Tang Xiao listened to his heart beat and felt safe.
âIâm sorry for scaring you.â Mu CHeng started to comfort her, stroking her back.
Just then, he didnât know that he would lose control over his emotions like that. Heâd always been very good at controlling himself.
It was only a split moment, but it made him scared.
Tang Xiao rubbed her face against his chest.
âRight, what happened to Ji Mingxiu?â Tang Xiao asked, âI used my high heels to stomp on him a few times.â
Mu Cheng looked at her injuries, âHeâs hospitalised too but it seems like he still hasn't woken up. Did you see who hit him?â
Tang Xiao shook her head, âSomeone covered me with a burlap sack. I didnât see her face but I did hear her voice.â
âNext time, donât be so impulsive.â Mu Cheng was still a bit afraid.
Just thinking about what couldâve happened, was enough to make his heart feel like it was being torn to shreds.
Tang Xiao nodded her head hard.
She was about to say something when her lips were stopped.
It wasnât the first time but Tang Xiao still froze.
Mu Cheng held onto her waist tightly.
This kiss came too fast and too hard.
Tang Xiao felt like she was about to swallowed whole.
The two peopleâs positions slowly started to move from being upright to slanting downwards.
Mu Cheng held the back of her head, protecting her head as he slowly pushed her against the bed.
Tang Xiaoâs face was flushed red.
If they didnât do a bit of something in this position, wouldnât that be a waste?
A single man and woman alone in a room, all of the conditions required to set fire to dry wood were complete!
But at the crucial point, Mu Cheng held himself back.
He slowly finished the kiss.
His light breaths beat against her face, Tang Xiaoâs eyes were wet and teary.
The door suddenly slammed open.
Chief Ning brought Xiao Lin with him but when they saw them intertwined against each other, on the bed, they froze.
Almost immediately, Xiao Lin shouted excitedly, âDonât stop ah! Continue! Iâll get the doctor to wait for you!â
Tang Xiao: âŠ.. I donât have a habit of live streaming.
âWait.â Mu Cheng stood up and helped Tang Xiao fix her clothes. âGet the doctor.â
Xiao Lin looked at him unhappily.
Mu Cheng opened the window to let some air in.
âIf you canât calm down, we can go outside.â Xiao Lin looked at him bitterly, âYoung people ah âŠ.â
Mu Cheng: âŠ.
Tang Xiao: âŠ.
Chief Ning looked at Mu Cheng coldly, âTang Xiao, you really are great ah. You just learnt a few days of self defense and now youâre going around to get into fights? So cool, huh. Whatâs the point of being an actress. I can just enrol you into the Olympics in boxing instead, maybe you might even accidentally get a medal.â
Tang Xiaoâs head shrunk back.
âWhen you were facing Ji Mingxiu, werenât you completely fearless? Why are you being so cowardly in front of me? Of all days, why not today? You probably havenât liked me in a long time, letâs fight then.â Chief Ning spoke as he loosened his wrist cuffs.
He then moved to loosen his tie, his fists started to bunch up like he really wanted to fight.
Tang Xiao immediately jumped up to flatter him, âIf thereâs anything, letâs just talk it out! Brother! Uncle! Master!!!!â
Chief Ning bluntly slapped her wound.
It hurt Tang Xiao so much that her tears were about to come out.
âHave you learnt your lesson!â
Tang XIao pushed her tears back into her eyes, tugging his sleeves as she nodded her head, âMu Cheng just told me off too.â
Mu Cheng suddenly felt like this pose was a bit familiar.

TL note:
Thanks to Anon for the chapters, two more to go đđ
BECAUSE IT WAS THE SAME POSE SHE USED TO BEG FOR MERCY/FLATTER YOU WHEN YOU WERE ANGRY.
TX uses the same move on both Mu Cheng and Chief Ning.
Leave a comment and because the title of the novel is now called âI hope you like dog foodâ. xx
