Entertainment: I just want to be the boss behind the scenes

Chapter 52: I'm Feeling Spring

After drinking most of the glass of water in one breath, Li Qin regained some consciousness. She looked at Meng Bai and asked, "Where's Jia Jia?"

"I just called her. She should be coming up soon."

"Oh."

The room fell silent, and vaguely, an awkward and ambiguous atmosphere spread in the room.

"Ahem." Meng Bai coughed lightly, breaking the silence in the room. "I just had a chat with Leshi. We can do the profit settlement before the end of the month. When the accounts are divided, we can divide our own."

Speaking of the profit, Li Qin also became excited: "How much can it be?"

"I don't know the exact figures, but according to the data I know, the total revenue of the show 'Pendulum' is at least over 20 million. According to the best estimate, we can get at least... 6 million."

"So many!" Li Qin said in surprise, even sobering up a little.

"It's just my personal guess. I don't know how much it will be yet."

Although Meng Bai said this, Li Qin was still very excited. This was much more than she had initially expected.

She couldn't help but think of that afternoon half a year ago when Meng Bai appeared in front of her and told her, who was crying, that there was a way to get back the money that was cheated out of her, and asked if she wanted to join.

Thinking of this, Li Qin looked at Meng Bai, suppressed her excitement and said seriously: "Thank you."

"Hey, we help each other. Without you, I wouldn't have been able to get a profit-sharing agreement with Leshi." Meng Bai waved his hand nonchalantly, and said jokingly, "But if you must thank me and are willing to give up one or two percentage points of the profit, then I can barely accept it."

"You're overthinking it. I won't let you get the share. But... we can try another way."

"What... huh?"

Meng Bai paused, and Li Qin gently leaned forward, raised her face, and then quickly pecked him on the face.

The girl's movements were so quick, so sudden, that Meng Bai even doubted whether it was just an illusion.

Li Qin sat huddled on the edge of the bed, feeling her heart beating rapidly. She didn't understand why she had done such a bold thing just now.

It seems that I can’t say that I like Meng Bai. At most, I just have some good impression of him.

Moreover, this guy has a bad temper and likes to tease her all the time. He often chokes her for a long time with one sentence. If he wasn't so handsome, she would really want to bite him to death every minute.

It must be the exciting atmosphere of today's celebration party that affected me, coupled with the alcohol, that led to my impulsiveness.

Yes, that’s definitely the case. It’s all my fault for being drunk!

Li Qin was trying hard to find excuses for herself in her mind, while Meng Bai was looking at the girl in front of him with confusion who was keeping her head down and not saying anything.

No, what's going on? Is it over in just one go? Let's continue later!

"you……"

"Don't think too much! I just...just want to express my gratitude. Yes, thank you!"

Meng Bai was about to speak when he was interrupted by Li Qin. Hearing this, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Your way of thanking me is quite unique. But..."

"But what?"

"But as the saying goes, a drop of water is repaid with a spring of water. If you want to thank you, this is not enough."

"Huh? What... Ugh!"

Li Qin was about to ask him what he meant, but saw Meng Bai grabbed her wrist, pulled her into his arms, and then lowered his head and kissed the girl's lips.

"Um!!!"

Li Qin's eyes widened.

Wait, that’s not right. How did it suddenly become like this?

Li Qin raised her hand and tapped Meng Bai's chest, trying to push him away, but the strength and action made anyone who saw it feel that she was just acting coquettishly.

After a few "resistances" and seeing that it was useless, Li Qin felt a heat rising from her body to her head, making her dizzy and swollen. She didn't know when she put down her hand that was patting the other person, and subconsciously wrapped it around Meng Bai's waist. The room became quiet, with only two panting sounds, one light and one heavy, and the sound of swallowing saliva.

a long time.

Lips parted, Meng Bai raised his head and looked at Li Qin. The girl had long lost any consciousness of "resistance". Her face was flushed and she looked at Meng Bai with blurred eyes, as if she didn't understand what was going on. She seemed to be asking him why he stopped.

The posture of the two has changed from sitting upright to half leaning against the head of the bed. Li Qin has only two pillows for support, which is no different from lying on the bed.

"what happened?"

"Nothing, I just suddenly thought that your assistant should be back soon."

As soon as Meng Bai finished speaking, he heard a knock on the door. Then, the voice of the assistant Jia Jia sounded outside the door: "Is this the room... Sister Qinqin, it's me."

Li Qin felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head, and her originally hot temper immediately calmed down. She glanced at Meng Bai's hand that had already reached into her clothes, and said coldly: "Why don't you let go?"

Meng Bai let go of his hand and stood up with an innocent expression.

Li Qin sorted out her messy clothes and when she felt that they were almost done, she said to Meng Bai, "I'll go wash my face. You go open the door."

Meng Bai didn't say anything, but walked out of the inner room obediently.

Although he was not experienced in this kind of situation, he had some understanding. He knew that the girl was in a state of shame and anger, and his best choice was to be quiet and not speak.

The assistant knocked on the door a few times, but when there was no movement, he took out his cell phone to make a call. Just as he was about to dial the number, he saw the door of the room open.

"Sister Qinqin, are you okay...ah, Meng, Brother Meng."

Seeing the young assistant's confused expression, Meng Bai said calmly, "You're back just in time. Teacher Li drank too much and is resting inside. Please take care of him."

"Oh, okay, okay." The young assistant responded, looked at Meng Bai suspiciously, and walked quickly towards the inner room.

Just then, Li Qin, who had washed her face, came out of the bathroom. Seeing the assistant coming in, she took the hangover medicine handed over by the assistant naturally and even joked with him.

Seeing the situation like this, it would be awkward to stay any longer, so Meng Bai wisely chose to say goodbye: "Since Jiajia is back, I'll leave first."

Li Qin came over, with a "sweet" smile on her face that still had some water stains: "I'm really sorry to trouble Teacher Meng tonight!"

"It's okay, I should do it." Meng Bai said with a look of "don't worry about it", "You can contact me next time if you have any questions."

"..." Li Qin's breath stagnated and she resisted the urge to roll her eyes.

The assistant at the side was listening in a daze. The conversation between the two people sounded a little difficult to understand, as if they were both drunk.

After "driving" Meng Bai away, Li Qin returned to the room. Leaning against the head of the bed, he said to the assistant, "Jia Jia, help me get a glass of water."

"Okay." The assistant responded. Just as she was about to turn around, she seemed to see something and pointed at her lips and said, "Sister Qinqin, your lipstick seems to be smudged at the corner of your mouth."

Li Qin was startled, then raised her hand and gently wiped the corner of her mouth, explaining: "Oh, maybe I rubbed it when I was washing my face just now. It's okay, I'm not going back tonight anyway, so let's just leave it at that."

"Oh." The young assistant didn't notice anything wrong, so he responded and walked out.

Watching the assistant leave the room, Li Qin groaned, pulled up the quilt and buried his face in it.

Damn, this night was really terrible!

Not to mention that I was taken advantage of by that guy, the key point is that I was the one who took the initiative.

His nose twitched slightly, and he seemed to be able to smell that guy. Then Li Qin suddenly remembered that the two of them seemed to be in this position just now...

Ah, help, why did I think of the scene just now again!
That guy was really good at this sort of thing. I was completely clueless, and he was the one leading and guiding me the entire time.

Thinking of this, Li Qin threw the quilt in her hand to the side fiercely - humph, scumbag!
But after a while, she pulled it back again, half covering her face. I don't know what she was thinking about, and she couldn't help laughing softly.

The warm sun and sunny breeze have just broken the frost, and my heart is already beating with spring in my willow eyes and cheeks.
