Chapter 25 - I'm Hitting You

Su Xingyu endured the pain. "Qin Mu, let go."

Su Xingqi, who was at the side, curled her lips and covered her face with one hand. She stood up slowly and persuaded, "Brother Qin Mu, why are you here? Let go of her. I don't think she did it on purpose."

Qin Mu frowned. "Qiqi, you are always so kind."

He looked at Su Xingyu with an even colder gaze. "You dared to harm your own sister. Are you even human?"

He still twisted Su Xingyu's arm, and it was so painful that cold sweat was about to break out on her forehead. However, she looked at Qin Mu stubbornly and said with difficulty, "You're the one who's not human. I really regret liking you before."

Her voice was like ice that pierced into Qin Mu's heart.

Looking at that pair of clear eyes, Qin Mu suddenly felt irritated for no reason. He didn't understand why either. He tightened his grip on Su Xingyu and scolded sternly, "Apologize to Qiqi!"

"Why should I?" she sneered, despite the pain.

At this moment, an immense force grabbed her and Qin Mu. It was Lin Weilong who pulled them away easily.

He looked at Qin Mu. "Get lost. Don't you know that unauthorized people can't enter the studio?"

Qin Mu was suddenly pulled away, and he was secretly astonished at this man's strange strength. He was even more unhappy. "You know who I am?"

"I don't care who you are." Lin Weilong picked up a tripod casually. "You're really good at hitting my assistant in my territory. Are you going to get lost? If not, I'll hit you."

His physique couldn't be considered tall, but his years of training made him appear very sturdy. In addition, he could easily lift a tripod that looked very heavy. With that overbearing manner, Qin Mu couldn't defeat him.

Hence, Qin Mu frowned. "What era is it such that there are still people fighting and killing? Low-class people are low-class people."

"Hey, why are you pretending in my territory?" This time, Lin Weilong picked up the tripod and threw it at Qin Mu, causing his expression to change. Lin Weilong didn't let go of him and continued to hit him. "What's so great about bullying my assistant? If you have the ability, then don't bully a woman. Fight me!"

At this moment, Qin Mu finally dodged. Su Xingqi screamed at the side, "Stop fighting!"

However, Lin Weilong ignored her.

Su Xingyu stood behind Lin Weilong with a complicated expression on her face. She suddenly didn't understand what she liked about Qin Mu back then. Even a stranger like Lin Weilong would stand up for her when she was in trouble. As for Qin Mu, they had been together for so many years, but he never caused trouble for anyone else for her.

She swallowed all the grievances in her heart.

Qin Mu dodged left and right, and not so long after, Lin Weilong had already mucked up the light gray, high-end suit on his body. He finally grabbed Su Xingqi's hand and said, "Qiqi, let's go! I'll get the magazine agency to change your photographer!"

He dragged Su Xingqi in her high heels, but the girl didn't forget to turn around and say to Lin Weilong, "Just you wait. What's so arrogant about a mere photographer? Tomorrow, Brother Qin Mu will get someone to fire you!"

"I'm so scared!" What answered her was a flying tripod.

Su Xingqi was so frightened that she hid behind Qin Mu. The two of them escaped from the studio, distressed.

It was a mess.

At this moment, Su Xingyu heaved a sigh of relief and said to Lin Weilong, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

Lin Weilong turned around to look at her. He raised his eyebrows and smiled insincerely. "Little girl, you have quite a background, huh?" He didn't miss the way Qin Mu mentioned 'your sister.' Was this girl in front of him the sister of that pretentious model?

Su Xingyu threw up her hands. "Do you think I look like someone with a background in that situation just now?"

Lin Weilong took another look at her. The difference between the two sisters was indeed quite substantial. Many people surrounded her sister, and she looked radiant, but her sister had no choice but to be his assistant. "I don't care what's going on between you two sisters." Lin Weilong bent down to pick up the tripod that he threw earlier on. He hissed in pain, "There's such a big hole."

When Su Xingyu saw the tripod, her heart ached as well. Photography equipment was a photographer's most treasured item. Don't think that Lin Weilong had just casually picked up the tripod and threw it just now. In reality, he had made a huge sacrifice for her.

"I'm sorry," she apologized sincerely.

Lin Weilong was impatient. "That's why I don't like partnering with women. How wishy-washy."

He fiddled with the tripod a few more times. "It can still be used. You, go and turn off the few lights over there and wrap up."

With the current situation, they, unfortunately, would not be able to shoot anymore. Lin Weilong called the editor and asked her to remember to chase for the clothes that Su Xingqi had worn.

Those clothes that she wore were borrowed from the brand at the last minute and were only to be used for filming, and they needed to return them after filming.

Something was said on the other end of the line. Lin Weilong cursed again.

Su Xingyu looked at him worriedly. "That man you just hit is Qin Mu, the Second Young Master of the Qin Family Enterprise. If he wants to make things difficult for you, you will be in trouble."

Lin Weilong stopped scolding and looked at her mockingly. "Worried about me?"

Su Xingyu was speechless. "…"

Why did this person look so annoying?

Hence, she said, "It seems like you don't need me to worry about you. Alright. Actually, after you hit him, I felt quite relieved."

"Looks like you guys have a lot of grudges against each other." Lin Weilong packed his camera equipment and carried them out of the studio effortlessly. His voice came from afar. "Worry about yourself first."

Su Xingyu shook her head. What kind of people had she met?

Her first day of work was not smooth-sailing.

When she got home, she took a shower and endured fatigue as she waited for Lu Shifeng to return.

Lu Shifeng came home very late. She had already fallen asleep on the sofa in the living room. Half of her soft silk dress was scattered on the floor. Her palm-sized face and peaceful sleeping demeanor looked very attractive.

Lu Shifeng did not disturb her.

He walked to her side and took off his jacket to cover her.

Her feather-like eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she woke up. When she saw him, she was a little flustered. "Lu Shifeng?" She grabbed his coat with one hand and sat up. "Sorry, I didn't know how I fell asleep…"

"If you're tired, go to the bedroom to rest." Lu Shifeng's voice was deep and slow. "It's understandable if you don't wait for me once or twice."

She did not know what to say. She was like a child who was caught doing something wrong. Actually, she had long wanted to go to the bedroom to rest today. However, this was her first day at work, and she was already neglecting Lu Shifeng. What if Lu Shifeng changed his mind and stopped her from continuing to work?

"I'm fine," she said, subconsciously clutching his suit jacket.

"What happened to your hand?" she suddenly heard him ask.

She followed his line of sight and realized that there was a huge bruise on her wrist. It was a shocking sight under the contrast of the snow-white silk robe.
