Chapter 2441: Twins

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

At night, when Xiao Qing was done with work at the filming venue, she wanted to book a taxi on an app on her phone.

Before she could book one, she heard a car stop by the roadside. Shen Mubei stuck his head out and said, “Get in.”

Xiao Qing thought for a moment, opened the car door, and got in.

“Didn’t you drive?” Shen Mubei asked.

“My car broke down and was sent to be repaired.”

“Okay.” Shen Mubei nodded. “I’ll pick you up from work before you get your car back. ”

Xiao Qing gripped her seatbelt tightly. “Okay.”

“Shall we have dinner together tonight?” Shen Mubei said.

It was a question, but it was in a firm tone.

“I’m meeting a friend for dinner.”

After Xiao Qing finished speaking, she saw the expression on his face darken as if she had said something wrong.

She wanted to explain that she really had an appointment with a friend, but she felt that it was a little deliberate to specially explain, so she could not say anything.

“Next time, then.”

That was what she heard him say.

By the time she wanted to explain again, she had missed the best opportunity.

When they arrived at the neighborhood, Xiao Qing got out of the car and watched Shen Mubei’s car drive away. She could only turn around and walk home.

When she got home, Mrs. Xiao was entertaining guests. After greeting them politely, Xiao Qing returned to her room.

“Qing Qing, come out and accompany your aunt and the rest.” Mrs. Xiao knocked on her door. “Quick, bring this watermelon over.”

Xiao Qing smiled and walked over with the watermelon.

Once she was surrounded by relatives, she would be in trouble. They would ask questions about her work and dating life.

Xiao Qing was lost in thought.

When she heard her phone ring, she immediately took it out. It didn’t matter who was calling. What mattered was that she could leave this moment of clamor.

“Hello.” Xiao Qing picked it up and walked toward the balcony.

“It’s me.” Shen Mubei’s voice sounded. “Qing Qing, what are you doing? Come, bring this coffee out.”

Even Shen Mubei heard Mrs. Xiao’s voice.

For some reason, Shen Mubei was suddenly in a good mood. He said, “Didn’t you say that we’d have dinner together next time? Is there anything you want to eat? I’ve reserved a table.’

“I’m not picky. We can get whatever.”

“Shall I pick you up tomorrow night?”

It was another familiar question, but it was in a firm tone.

Xiao Qing nodded gently. “Okay, I’ll wait for you.”

After saying this, she hung up the phone. Mrs. Xiao was almost behind her. Xiao Qing quickly rubbed her cheeks, picked up her coffee, and walked toward her aunt.

“Why is this child so distracted?” Mrs. Xiao muttered behind her.

The next day, Xiao Qing worked hard.

However, she could not help but look at the time occasionally.

The closer it was to getting off work, the more she couldn’t help but look. “Sister Xiao Qing, are you in a hurry?” Xinyue asked when she saw her actions.

“No, it’s nothing.”

Xinyue smiled and said, “You’ve been looking at your watch so many times that it made me think you were busy. I don’t have anything to do today, so I don’t need to trouble you. If you have something to do, you can just leave early.”

“Then I’ll pack up and leave. This is the schedule for tomorrow’s scenes. I’ll leave it here for you.”

“Okay, go ahead. Bye.”

Xiao Qing took her bag and walked out. From afar, she saw Zhang Xi standing at the side and looking over.

This time, although Zhang Xi did not get the role in Love Is Man Tianxing, her family immediately started another drama for her. But she was not the female lead.

The production team for Zhang Xi’s new drama occupied the set right beside. Although she had good resources, she didn’t know why they kept paying attention to Love Is Man Tianxing.

Sometimes, Xiao Qing could not understand her actions at all.

Seeing Zhang Xi, Xiao Qing pretended not to see her and walked straight out. Shen Mubei had already arrived. As Xiao Qing walked over, he got out of the car and opened the door for her.

Actually, Shen Mubei and Xiao Qing had been on the trending searches before. Many people knew that they were together, but they did not know that they were not married.

Zhang Xi also knew a little about this news. She asked the manager beside her curiously, “I suddenly remembered that Xiao Qing is pregnant. Why doesn’t she look pregnant at all?”

“Who knows? Maybe it was aborted. Maybe Zhao Xinshu was dissatisfied and caused trouble with Shen Mubei?” the manager guessed.

“What does it have to do with Zhao Xinshu?”

The manager smiled and said, “Don’t you know? Shen Mubei has always been with Zhao Xinshu, but he just never announced it to the public. I was chatting with a few other managers about resources before and heard a few things. It’s said that Xiao Qing snatched Shen Mubei away from Zhao Xinshu.”

“Why didn’t you say so earlier?”

“Zhao Xinshu is now a D-list celebrity. I haven’t thought of her for a while.”

“Go look for Zhao Xinshu. She might be useful.”

When Zhang Xi heard this, her mind cleared up.

Getting third place in I Am An Actor was a humiliation brought to her by Qiao Weiyang, Xinyue, and Xiao Qing.

Now, she could not touch Xinyue, nor did she have the chance to touch Qiao Weiyang. However, she did not want to let Xiao Qing off so easily.

As for Shen Mubei, since he dared to cheat on someone, he had to be prepared to bear the consequences.

Piano music was playing in Shen Mubei’s car.

The flowing music slowly filled the space in the car.

“If you don’t like it, you can play something else.”

Shen Mubei’s deep male voice sounded very pleasant with the tune of the piano in the background.

“It’s quite good. Let’s leave it. It’s Bach, right?”

“Yes. I’ve always liked his music.”

Xiao Qing’s smile widened. “I like it too.”

Once this common topic was brought up, the atmosphere was much lighter than before.

Shen Mubei’s car slowly drove into the underground parking lot.

After getting out of the car, Xiao Qing followed him into the elevator.

She was a little surprised. “This doesn’t look like a restaurant. Where are we going to eat?”

“You’ll know when we get there.”

After leaving the elevator, Xiao Qing realized that they were in an apartment. After Shen Mubei unlocked the door with his fingerprint, he opened it.

It was a very simple house. It even looked a little empty. The evening sun shone on the floor from the living room, giving people a comfortable vibe.

“We…” Xiao Qing hesitated.

“Didn’t you say that you weren’t picky and I could bring you to eat whatever?” Shen Mubei said as he rolled up his sleeves. “I’ve already made preparations. I just need to cook now.”

Xiao Qing was surprised. “You know how to cook?”

“What would I eat if I didn’t?”

“But don’t you always have staff at home…” Halfway through, Xiao Qing realized that something was wrong. His family had experienced an unforeseen event before, and they didn’t always have household staff at home.

That was probably when he learned how to cook..
