Beware the Appearing Cute Wife!
Chapter 584 - 640, are you trying to wall-slam me?

Chapter 584: 640, are you trying to wall-slam me?

Su Yebai spoke in a tone that was full of earnest concern, like that of an elder to a junior.

Tong Xi smiled.

"Then I’ll take your auspicious words to heart! Hopefully, I’ll meet an exceptional breed in the future!"

Su Yebai burst into hearty laughter.

Next to Su Yebai, Gu Zhengming’s expression on his face grew increasingly grave.

The crew of the drama quickly wrapped up their work, and Tong Xi also returned to the dressing room to change her clothes. Her costume in the play was dressed as a boy, with long hair tied up to the top of her head; unlike some male actors who had to wear wigs, all she had to do was let her hair down.

Next door was the male actors’ dressing room.

Tong Xi had just changed into her own clothes when she heard a knock at the door. To her surprise, she found Gu Zhengming standing at the doorway when she opened it.

"What’s the matter?" Tong Xi didn’t beat around the bush but got straight to the point.

However, her tone was very cold, and her gaze was equally indifferent, a stark contrast to the warm and affectionate eyes she had during filming.

A lump formed in Gu Zhengming’s heart as his gaze fell upon Tong Xi’s face.

"The person who visited the set tonight... who was it?"

Gu Zhengming’s voice was deep, harboring a suppressed emotion.

Tong Xi glanced at him, "What’s it to you?"

Aside from acting, she didn’t want to interact with Gu Zhengming or speak to him at any other time. Seeing Gu Zhengming reminded Tong Xi of her pathetic and laughable past.

"Tong Xi! Over these past years, I..."

"Stop right there!" Tong Xi’s gaze turned icy, "Mr. Gu, are we familiar? How you’ve been all these years, I have no interest in knowing. If you’re here to reminisce, then I’m sorry, you’ve got the wrong person!"

Yet, faced with Tong Xi’s heartless words, Gu Zhengming couldn’t hold back any longer. His tall figure squeezed in, closing the door of the dressing room behind him.

Inside, only the two of them remained, and the atmosphere in the room immediately tensed up.

Tonight, Gu Zhengming was provoked because the scene they shot reminded him of their past as Two Kids without a care in the world...

Over the years, as he wandered through the entertainment industry, he had long become a top-tier celebrity surrounded by beautiful women, yet his heart still yearned for that bright and innocent smile.

He thought they would never cross paths in this lifetime, but unexpectedly, they met on the set of this movie!

Now, she was right in front of his eyes...

Gu Zhengming braced himself against the wall, trapping Tong Xi within the crook of his arms.

Tong Xi narrowed her eyes, a trace of mocking smile flickering within.

"Mr. Gu, are you trying to trap me against the wall? Do you plan on trying a kiss next?"

Gu Zhengming felt a surge of heat within him.

Looking at her face, he felt his blood boiling, coursing rapidly through his veins.

Uncontrollably, he reached out to caress her cheek.

But just as his hand was about to touch her cheek, Tong Xi suddenly bent her knee and forcefully shoved upward.

Caught off guard, Gu Zhengming doubled over from the sudden pain, squeezing his legs together and bending down.

"You..."

Gu Zhengming spoke in a husky voice, unable to finish his sentence due to the pain.

The air of elegance he previously held was gone, leaving only the painful grunts muffled between clenched teeth.

Tong Xi shrugged her shoulders innocently.

"Sorry, you crossed the safety line, I was just reacting instinctively."

Seeing Gu Zhengming’s pale face unable to stop her anymore, Tong Xi turned and picked up her hat to put it on, then jauntily walked out of the room.

After leaving, she called Shen Yunqing.

"Hey, where are you at? I’m coming to find you!"
