When Xu Cheng woke up, he found himself in a strange environment, and he immediately sat up in alert.
Lin Chuxue was wearing a long green dress, and her hair was tied into a ponytail, looking elegant and refined. She poured a glass of water and placed it on the table. "You came here once, don't you remember?"
"Oh, it's you." Xu Cheng finally let out a sigh of relief and rubbed his temples. "Sorry to disturb you."
Then, he got up and was about to leave.
"Drink some water first," Lin Chuxue said indifferently. Then, she walked to the private room that belonged to her. She sat in front of the piano, and her slender and white fingers were playing the songs from her new album.
After Xu Cheng finished the water, he got up and was about to leave, but Lin Chuxue didn't even look back and said, "If you go out now and get photographed by the paparazzi, then we won't be able to hide our relationship anymore."
Xu Cheng pouted, found a staircase in the living room, and sat on the sofa. On the other side was Lin Chuxue's assistant, Xiaolan. Xu Cheng asked Lin Chuxue, "Can I smoke?"
Lin Chuxue didn't say anything and continued playing the piano.
The music was very lively and gentle.
After listening to it, Xu Cheng smoked another cigarette and leaned back on the sofa, looking up at the ceiling. He felt a lot more comfortable after being influenced by the music.
When Lin Chuxue finished playing, she turned around and glanced at him. "You came out?"
Xu Cheng nodded. "Yeah, I didn't get chosen, so I came out. I'll be working here in Shangcheng for now, but don't worry, we will still live our own lives. I promised before that I wouldn't disturb you and touch you, and I won't interfere with your private life. "
"You don't need to remind me, you've done a good job these past three years." Lin Chuxue then asked, "What are you planning to do?"
"The higher-ups gave me a job at a public institution," Xu Cheng said, "I'll start as a small patrol officer, but I won't give up on my dream."
Lin Chuxue: "I'm jealous that you can still have a dream."
Xu Cheng knew that this woman was pointing at the mulberry tree and scolding the locust tree. For Lin Chuxue, who was arranged to be married before she was born, it was very unfair for her to marry a man she didn't like. This also interrupted a lot of Lin Chuxue's life plans, and she could only come to Huaxia from England to be his wife.
"I've been trying to persuade Uncle Lin for so many years, but I still can't change his mind. I'm really sorry about you marrying me, but don't worry, I will give you enough freedom and respect. You can even ignore this marriage and find the love you want. I know the marriage certificate will be exposed sooner or later and ruin your reputation, but just give me some time. After I convince Uncle Lin, we will immediately divorce," Xu Cheng said sincerely.
Lin Chuxue didn't say anything and just quietly looked at her score.
Xiao Lan, who was on the side, clearly heard Xu Cheng's career as a patrol officer and let out a slight snort of contempt. In her eyes, even if Sister Lin's marriage partner wasn't a young master from a rich family or a high official, he would at least be a dragon or phoenix among men. She didn't expect him to be someone with a background as a patrol officer. No wonder Sister Lin was so cold to him. But then again, Sister Lin didn't seem to be cold to any man.
Originally, she was thinking that if Xu Cheng was really a high-ranking official, she would try to curry favor with him. But now that she knew exactly what he did for a living, Xiaolan suddenly felt that she needed to think about whether this guy would threaten her career. Lin Chuxue's popularity was like the sun in the sky right now, and it could be said that she was raking in money every day in the entertainment industry. Lin Chuxue's net worth and salary were probably at the top of the A-list, so Xiaolan had to be on guard against Xu Cheng as a patrol officer. So, after enduring for a long time, Xiaolan still took out an agreement and placed it on the table.
Xu Cheng turned around and looked at the table. "What's this?"
Xiao Lan said, "Sister Lin, this is what my agent, Sister Lei, wants."
Lin Chuxue frowned.
Xu Cheng also frowned.
Xiao Lan looked at Xu Cheng and said, "Mr. Xu, although it's very rude of us, for the sake of Sister Lin's career, we want to sign a confidentiality agreement with you. We will keep your relationship with Lin Chuxue a secret, and you can't even interfere with her private life and career in the future."
"Xiao Lan!" Lin Chuxue was a bit dissatisfied.
"Sister Lin, we really don't have a choice. You are the face of the company, the number one sister. If you get married for three years and this gets exposed, it will be a huge blow to your career. Right now, your career is on the rise, and you need to put an end to things that will damage your image." Xiao Lan also worriedly said with a bitter smile.
Xu Cheng laughed out loud, and then his face sank. "You guys don't need to tell me what to do between me and her. I've always been a conscientious person, and I always do what I say. In the past three years, I have no interest in anything related to her, including her apartment. So, just tell your company not to worry, I will just walk on the sidewalk."
Then, he stood up and directly walked out of the apartment.
Xiao Lan angrily said to Lin Chuxue, "He obviously has a guilty conscience. Sister Lin, if he doesn't sign this agreement, it means that he will wait until you have more money and reach the peak of your career before blackmailing you."
Lin Chuxue didn't say anything and was still looking at her music score.
She wasn't anxious, but her assistant Xiao Lan was. There was no lack of scumbags like him in the entertainment industry.
"Sister Lin, seriously, why did you hide your marriage from the company? If he doesn't sign this agreement, how can the company put all their resources on you? "
Lin Chuxue quietly played a new song, letting Xiao Lan talk as if a disaster was about to befall her. She just sat there, immersed in her own music, as beautiful as a still firework.
After finishing a song, Lin Chuxue looked up at her assistant and said, "Xiao Lan, do you think I'm pretty?"
"Of course, Sister Lin is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. Even in the mixed blood world, you are a world-famous woman. Which man with status doesn't want to get to know you? Right now, a boss from a headhunting company wants to have a candlelight dinner with you and raised the price to 20 million! The headhunting company directly approached the company but was rejected by Sister Lei. You can imagine how high the price of a meal is. Those A-list actresses only get paid 10 million. "
Lin Chuxue smiled gently. "Yeah, didn't you hear what he said before he left? In the past three years, he said he wasn't interested in anything about me, and he did it. He didn't care about me at all. He came here once, but because he didn't care, he didn't even remember. Xiao Lan, I believe that if he says he can do it, he will do it. Let me ask you, how many married men can still treat me like a stranger for three years after marrying me? "
Xiao Lan was speechless.
That was true. If it were any other man, they really wouldn't be able to resist and force themselves on her.
"But, I'm afraid that when Sister Lin is at the peak of your career, Mr. Xu will bargain with you." Xiao Lan frowned.
"He won't, don't worry." Lin Chuxue didn't seem nervous at all. She covered her piano stand, stood up, and said, "Do you know why you guys and the media couldn't find my married information?"
Xiao Lan shook her head.
Lin Chuxue said, "In fact, Xu Cheng used his connections to keep it a secret. He really doesn't seem to have any feelings for me. When we got married, he didn't force me either. I thought he was playing hard to get, so I decided to enter the entertainment industry to test him. "
