Chapter 672: Chapter 670: I’ll Listen to You_1
"Thank you, but I’ve compounded my own ointment, which should be nearly as effective as yours," Xia Ningxing politely and courteously declined.
Then, she took out her own ointment and began to apply it.
Initially, Reyno wasn’t very impressed, fully convinced that her ointment couldn’t possibly be better than his, but when he saw the wound healing at a pace visible to the naked eye with her ointment, he awkwardly withdrew his own.
This wasn’t just similar in effectiveness—it clearly outperformed his ointment by miles!
"Do you have more of this ointment? Can I buy a few bottles from you?" Reyno asked, trying to continue the conversation and find a topic.
"If you like it, senior, I can give you a bottle," Xia Ningxing offered, thinking he was genuinely interested in the ointment, and had her assistant hand one to him.
"I really appreciate it," Reyno said, pleasantly surprised.
"It’s nothing," Xia Ningxing replied.
Jiang Miaomiao: ... No matter how I look at it, Reyno seems to have ulterior motives towards Sister Ningxing!
The shooting continued.
In the afternoon, a strong wind blew, and a heavy rain fell, perfect for shooting a certain scene in the movie.
It was also a scene between Xia Ningxing and Reyno.
While filming, Reyno caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye of a large tree behind Xia Ningxing that was swaying perilously, about to crash down towards her.
"Careful!"
Everyone else was stunned, instinctively screaming.
"Xia Ningxing! Move away!"
After Reyno let out a frightened roar, he immediately, without thinking, rushed forward to push Xia Ningxing aside and take the blow for her.
However, before he could reach her to protect her, Xia Ningxing had already pushed him away: "You’re the one who should move aside!"
After her forceful shout, Reyno, who had been pushed to the ground, saw Xia Ningxing in the storm suddenly loom larger, turning into a statuesque woman in black boots.
She then made a shocking move!
With one kick, she sent the huge tree that was about to fall on top of her flying to the side.
The entire action was smooth and relaxed.
It was as if she were kicking away a feather, insignificant and weightless, rather than a tree weighing thousands of pounds.
The whole set was in shock!
Everyone stared at her with jaws practically hitting the floor.
Is this woman Superman or what?
"You... you..." Even Reyno’s voice faltered.
What a strong woman!
Reyno was utterly smitten with her.
"Sorry for alarming everyone; I’ve just always been unusually strong since I was young," Xia Ningxing explained with a slight frown.
She hadn’t wanted to reveal her strength, but with human life at stake, there was no time for hesitation.
"Director, can we delete the footage just recorded? I don’t want it to be publicized," Xia Ningxing said to Director Carl, noticing that the video camera was still recording.
Though exposed, she didn’t want the whole world to know.
"No, no problem," Director Carl agreed without hesitation, swiftly erasing the footage, as though he feared if he was too slow, Xia Ningxing might become impatient and kick him flying too.
"It’s all deleted, do you want to come and check it?" Director Carl asked, worried she might not trust his word.
"No need, I trust the director," Xia Ningxing stated.
Hearing this, Director Carl felt suddenly relieved, body and soul.
It was the first time in his life he had met an actor who was so immensely to his liking.
Reyno walked over and looked at her feet, "Is your foot okay?"
"It’s fine." Xia Ningxing shook her head.
Although she said it was fine, Director Carl still paused the filming and let everyone take a break.
During the break, Jiang Miaomiao hesitated for a long time but couldn’t help saying, "Ningxing, do you really not feel that Reyno has feelings for you?"
She lowered her voice, whispering so that only the two of them could hear.
Xia Ningxing cast her eyes down, "I do feel it."
After all, if a person is willing to risk their own life to keep you safe, what else could it be if not love?
When Reyno came rushing over to protect her earlier, she was truly shocked.
She hadn’t expected him to do such a thing.
Jiang Miaomiao then asked, "So what do you plan to do?"
"What else can I do? If he confesses, I’ll reject him and crush any hope he might have. If he doesn’t say anything, I’ll pretend I don’t know and keep my distance, rejecting him with my actions." Xia Ningxing did not find this to be a complex or difficult problem, so she quickly came up with a rational and calm solution.
The only person she loved was the boss.
And she would love him forever.
Therefore, no one else stood a chance!
She wouldn’t give anyone the opportunity to destroy her family!
"That makes sense," Jiang Miaomiao nodded in agreement.
Meanwhile.
Director Carl was pulling Reyno aside, "Why in the world did you save Xia Ningxing? Do you have a death wish?"
If Xia Ningxing hadn’t been so strong, that tree would have fallen directly on him, leading to severe injury or even death!
Reyno slightly curled his lips, making himself sound noble, "If everyone were so selfish to only think of themselves, what a terrible world this would be!"
"Cut the crap in front of me!" Director Carl, an old acquaintance who knew him well, understood his personality.
A person who would rather disappoint everyone else than be let down by anyone, how could he possibly have such grand thoughts!
Absurd!
Director Carl took a drag of his cigarette and pressed him again, "Tell me the truth, do you like Xia Ningxing or not?"
"To be precise, I’ve fallen in love with her!" Not only did Reyno not deny it, but he also corrected him.
A woman he was willing to risk his life for could only mean more than just liking!
It’s love!
A love that runs very deep!
"Crazy!" Director Carl tossed his cigarette away, nearly jumping with anger, he glared at him and warned in a low voice, "She is a married woman with a child. Loving her means ruining your future, digging your own grave!"
"So what?" Reyno said nonchalantly, as if indifferent to such superficial reputations.
"You might not care, but what about Xia Ningxing? She will definitely be slandered as a homewrecker. People will speculate that she seduced you first. This world is just that unfair to women!" Director Carl analyzed calmly and advised,
"So, you’d better not make any more inappropriate moves. If you truly love her, then protect her silently from the background, or wait until she’s divorced. Don’t create any messy situations."
"Anyway, both you and I know that very few loves in this circle last to the very end," Director Carl added.
This circle is indeed strange, many seemingly promising romances ultimately end in a very sorry state, eliciting sighs and heartache.
"I’ll listen to you," Reyno nodded.
He was right, he might not care about his own reputation and career, but he couldn’t ruin everything for Xia Ningxing.
"It looks like you really are head over heels this time," Director Carl sighed, seeing how obedient he was.
