Chapter 450: Chapter 450: Want to Fall in Love_1

Huo Qilin and Cheng Bingbing were not seriously injured. Having been approved by the doctor, Xia Qingtian left the hospital with both of them.

On the way home from the hospital, Xia Qingtian had a lot to think about.

She first took Huo Qilin home and told him that she had postponed his work for the next few days, asked him to rest well before leaving with Cheng Bingbing.

Rather than taking Cheng Bingbing home, she took her to a peaceful dessert shop.

She ordered a private room and a few signature desserts for Cheng Bingbing.

There’s no girl who does not like desserts; a female artist who has given up sweets for years to maintain her figure adored them even more.

Cheng Bingbing, who had been extremely nervous in anticipation of Xia Qingtian’s forthcoming words, forgot her worries and happily started eating a piece of cake.

Once Bingbing relaxed completely, Xia Qingtian started speaking. "I’ve found you a teacher abroad to train your acting skills, what do you think?"

Cheng Bingbing paused with the dessert in her hand and lowered her head without saying a word.

Noticing this, Xia Qingtian knew she did not agree.

Qingtian took a sip of water and told Bingbing, "Bingbing, if you have any objections, we can discuss it together. Although I’m your manager and the company’s general manager, our relationship is not entirely hierarchical, I consider you a friend and a partner. Only when you succeed, will I, and the company also succeed."

"We need to be honest with each other. You can share your opinions anytime. Even if we have different opinions, we can slowly discuss them."

In the end, she took Bingbing’s hand and asked sincerely, "Bingbing, do you trust me?"

Bingbing nodded subconsciously, "Yes."

If she couldn’t trust Xia Qingtian, who had been so good to her in this industry, there would be no one else she could trust.

"What do you think about this matter?" Xia Qingtian asked her.

Cheng Bingbing hesitated for a moment, then finally said, "I still want to stick to my own experiences so that when I act, I can be fully immersed in the role."

"But..." Xia Qingtian hesitated, "It’s too dangerous. If Huo Qilin hadn’t been passing by to save you this time, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

"I know it’s dangerous. I’ll be more cautious this time." Cheng Bingbing said resolutely, "This experience has helped me understand the difficulties of this special group better and has made me more empathetic."

"Have you really decided?" Xia Qingtian raised her eyebrow, "With a teacher, you can avoid many detours and it would be much easier."

Cheng Bingbing was unmoved, "I know, but since I chose the path of an actor, I’m prepared for the hardships. I don’t want to be a star who only feeds on youthful popularity and gets washed up when the time comes."

"I want to be an actor, a real actor. No matter how difficult it is, I am not afraid."

Seeing her firm decision, Xia Qingtian gave a somewhat helpless smile.

"You..." she compromised, "You don’t know how to enjoy the good life."

Despite what she said, she admired Bingbing’s down-to-earth character. In the tempting entertainment industry, Bingbing remained determined and steadfast—an admirable quality.

Looking at the beautiful Bingbing incented a sense of responsibility in her.

As a manager, it is her duty to protect her artists from harm.

Though she felt Xia’s softened attitude, Cheng Bingbing wasn’t sure if it was out of surrender. After all, in the entertainment industry, artists who haven’t made their name yet, have weaker positions and usually have to compromise with their managers.

Would Xia change her mind because of Bingbing’s insistence?

"Sister Xia, do you mean..." Bingbing carefully asked.

Xia smiled and nodded, "I agree. After all, you are the actress, and you are the one who needs to act. All I can do as a manager is to assist you, offer you the best suggestion and ease your concerns. But what you do on set ultimately depends on yourself. If you feel that personal experience will help you relate more to the character, then I respect your opinion."

"Don’t treat me as someone who is controlling you, we are partners, and also friends."

A wave of warmth spread in Bingbing’s heart.

"Sister Xia, I think the most correct thing I’ve done in my life is signing with our company. And being able to be your artist is the luckiest thing. " she said with great luminosity in her eyes.

"I’m also proud to have you." Xia Qingtian smiled, "Although I agreed to let you experience their life up close, we still need to ensure your safety. I’ll send a few people to protect you covertly, not affecting you. Is that okay?"

Remembering Huo Qilin getting injured and stitched up because of her, Cheng Bingbing nodded and agreed, "Okay."

Seeing her agreement, Xia Qingtian immediately started contacting people who would protect her covertly later.

It wasn’t until everything was arranged that she felt she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

She put down her phone and started to enjoy the dessert with Bingbing.

However, after a few bites, she noticed that Bingbing, who was just excited about the dessert, became absent-minded.

The cake, which had been good, was shattered by her with a fork.

Xia Qingtian raised an eyebrow, her demand had been approved, why did she seem to have so many worries?

she called out to Bingbing and asked her, "What’s wrong? You don’t like the cake?"

That made Bingbing come back to her senses and she was surprised to find the cake shattered into crumbs.

She immediately put down the fork and said, "No, it’s not that. I was just thinking about something."

"What’s that? Can you share it?" Xia Qingtian casually asked.

Bingbing bit her lip, and a struggling expression appeared on her face.

Seeing this, Xia Qingtian quickly said, "If it’s inconvenient to say, just ignore my question. Everyone has their own privacy in this world."

"It’s not something that can’t be said." Bingbing took a deep breath, as if making a decision, and asked tentatively, "Sister Xia, does our company restrict artist’s romantic relationships? You know that many companies have rules that artists are not allowed to date before a certain age."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Xia Qingtian somewhat nervously.

"You are aiming to be a powerful actress, as long as it’s your own decision, you can start dating anytime." Xia Qingtian informed her very liberally, then asked curiously, "Why are you suddenly asking this, you want to date?"

Seeing the company didn’t oppose it, Cheng Bingbing was also unopposed, "I do. I’ve met someone I like."
