Chapter 151: Chapter 151: I’m Waiting for That Day

After a month of hard work, Muxi Media had finally gotten on the right track and was showing an increasingly positive momentum.

During this period, the happiest thing for Xinan was probably the addition of Yang Shuyu to the company.

When Xinan received a call from Yang Shuyu, she was actually very shocked because she had only mentioned it in passing on the red carpet before, not expecting her to seriously consider it afterward.

For Muxi Media, this was an extremely beneficial development. After all, Yang Shuyu’s popularity had soared since she won the Best Supporting Actress at the Qingyi Awards, and she was now considered a second-tier actress.

Of course, Xinan didn’t mistreat Yang Shuyu. She arranged for her to be the female lead in two movies right away, and the cast and crew for each were quite impressive; they certainly wouldn’t disappoint her.

In addition, the company signed two newcomers, both promising. As long as they worked hard in the future, becoming sensations was just a matter of time.

Even with her own company, Xinan did not step away from the limelight and continued to act and do advertisements and magazines.

But now she mostly did movies, hardly taking any TV drama roles. She had received several variety show invitations as well, but she turned them all down. Hence, after so many years in the industry, Xinan’s variety show debut was still yet to come.

Cheng Yi had once teased Xinan, telling her she was even busier than her artists, despite being a boss herself.

But Xinan knew that it was actually Cheng Yi who was the busiest of all. Not only did he manage Yi Feng, but sometimes he would also help her out behind the scenes. She was aware of all his efforts.

Even so, Cheng Yi still made time every day to accompany her. Xinan was deeply moved by this and decided she must take a break to spend quality time with Cheng Yi.

She had been planning this in her mind for a while but never got the chance to carry it out because she was just too busy - so busy that she almost forgot her own birthday.

At the time, one of the girls at the company had a birthday, and the colleagues organized a small birthday party for her. Xinan and Ding Lan were both at the company that day and didn’t say much.

Seeing them having fun, Ding Lan casually mentioned, "Nannan, isn’t your birthday coming up too?"

Xinan was looking at her phone when she heard Ding Lan. She clicked into the calendar and saw it was already August 25, while her birthday was on September 2.

Only then did Xinan remember that her birthday was indeed approaching. She recalled spending her last birthday on set, during a cold war with Cheng Yi, so she hadn’t received any gifts.

Actually, since Cheng Yi went abroad, she hadn’t celebrated her birthday because it used to be Cheng Yi who would celebrate it with her. So after he left, there was no reason to celebrate.

For some reason, Xinan began to look forward to this year’s birthday. Not only was Cheng Yi with her, but Jiang Yurou had also returned to the country.

With this thought, Xinan’s heart began to feel excited, giving her the motivation to carry on with her work.

When she returned to her apartment that evening, Xinan made a simple meal for herself. After eating, she went to the bedroom to fetch her pajamas for a shower.

Only then did Xinan notice that, unbeknownst to her, Cheng Yi’s clothes had already taken up half of the wardrobe. She glanced at the desk in the room; what used to be an empty space was now stacked with documents and books.

Now the apartment had traces of Cheng Yi everywhere. A warm smile suddenly appeared on Xinan’s face. She looked away and reached for the pajamas in the closet.

After preparing the bathwater in the tub, Xinan threw in a peach-scented bath bomb and lit some aromatherapy candles before disrobing and lying in the water.

The warm and comfortable sensation immediately relaxed her entire body.

Xinan let out a contented sigh and then picked up her phone from the nearby table, tapping open Cheng Yi’s WeChat.

Xinan: "Are you coming over today?"

Asking this seemed redundant because Cheng Yi would come to her place no matter how late it got.

Cheng Yi might have indeed been busy. It took a few minutes without a reply, but Xinan wasn’t in a hurry. She put the phone back down, then closed her eyes and started to enjoy the moment.

Eventually, Xinan fell asleep in the tub, only to be awakened by the WeChat notification sound on her phone.

She rubbed her eyes, clearing some of the sleepiness, and picked up her phone to check the message.

Sugar Daddy: "I’m coming."

Xinan: When will you be back?

Sugar Daddy: I’m already downstairs in the complex. I was driving just now.

No wonder he hadn’t replied to her message.

Xinan didn’t respond again. She got up, dried herself with a towel, and put on her nightgown before going out.

She had barely sat down on the sofa when she heard the sound of the door unlocking.

Cheng Yi had been spending more and more time at her place, so Xinan had given him a key.

Seeing Xinan already dressed in her nightgown on the sofa, Cheng Yi arched an eyebrow: "Did you buy a new nightgown?"

"You noticed, huh?" Xinan blinked playfully.

"You only have a few nightgowns, and I’ve never seen this one before." Cheng Yi’s gaze lingered on her.

She wore a light blue slip dress today, adorned with lace at the neckline and shoulders, showcasing her exquisite figure.

Xinan asked with anticipation, "Does it look nice?"

"It looks nice."

Xinan’s face broke into a radiant smile at his compliment.

Cheng Yi’s lips curled slightly as he walked into the living room, "I brought some late-night snacks."

Only then did Xinan notice what he was holding. Though she had already eaten dinner, she didn’t know why her appetite had increased recently, and she got hungry quickly. So hearing Cheng Yi mention late-night snacks brought her immense joy.

"Cheng Yi, you are the best!"

Cheng Yi cleared the tea table and began removing the snacks from their bags: spicy clams, garlic chicken feet, cordyceps flower beef porridge...

Xinan couldn’t help but salivate as she looked at the food in front of her: "Wow, that looks delicious."

"Eat up then," Cheng Yi placed the late-night snacks before her.

"Then I won’t be polite."

Xinan put on disposable gloves and immediately started on a piece of garlic chicken feet, soft and melting in her mouth.

"This is delicious, Cheng Yi. You should try it too."

Cheng Yi, however, was in no rush, calmly savoring the porridge, "You go ahead. I brought these for you anyway."

Watching his gentle smile, Xinan felt a sudden softness in her heart, "Cheng Yi, you’re really good to me."

It was the second time she said this tonight.

Cheng Yi flicked Xinan’s forehead, "Silly, you’re my treasure. Of course, I have to be good to you."

"Then I will be better to you in the future, better than you are to me."

"Okay, I’ll wait for that day."
