After We Broke Up, She Started Pursuing Me [Entertainment Industry] 63

Chapter 63

The decadent sounds from the next stall continued.

The sounds were sometimes short, sometimes mournful, making one’s face flush and heart pound, inviting all sorts of fantasies.

Perhaps because they didn’t hear any other movements in the restroom, the moans gradually became more unrestrained.

“Ah…”

Listening to the wails from next door, Shi Qin’s already tight brow furrowed even more, her face turning shades of red and green.

What kind of people are these!

How could they do it right in the restroom…

Well, this is great. If no one comes along, who knows how long this will last.

Shi Qin lowered her head and cursed inwardly, not noticing the strange state of the person beside her.

Although it had only been a few minutes, Zhou Jinsi felt as if the two of them had been in there for a century.

Every sound from next door would automatically make Zhou Jinsi think of the scene from that night. Instantly, her blood would rush, and a fine, thin sweat would break out on her forehead.

But Shi Qin didn’t have those amorous thoughts. Her mind was full of matters concerning Zhou Jinsi. The thought that she was about to go to a blind date dinner made her heart feel suffocated.

At this thought, she looked up at the person who still seemed indifferent. Shi Qin’s heart felt sour and astringent.

Zhou Jinsi happened to be looking at her as well. She didn’t understand the hidden emotions in Shi Qin’s eyes; instead, she felt that her constant staring was making the air suddenly grow hot.

Thinking of how she had called Ji Chen “Big Sis” that night, thinking of how they had been laughing and talking together that morning, Zhou Jinsi just felt an unbearable tightness in her chest.

Listening to the intermittent moans from next door, looking at the pure eyes of the person before her, Zhou Jinsi’s mind was a mess, about to explode.

Her possessiveness was like dynamite buried deep in the earth. Once it was dug up, it would instantly detonate.

And so, under Shi Qin’s confused gaze, Zhou Jinsi lowered her head, her face getting closer and closer to hers…

Before she realized what she was doing, just as Shi Qin was about to speak, her lips were suddenly sealed, tightly.

This was their first intimate moment since that night. After so long, Zhou Jinsi was quickly moved.

She took Shi Qin’s lower lip, her tongue licking it, then deftly slipped inside her mouth, tangling with her.

Shi Qin was completely surprised as she was pressed against the stall wall and kissed, her mind a roaring blank, still not having come back to her senses.

Am I hallucinating?

Was I just forcibly kissed by Zhou Jinsi?

How has her personality started to change after just one time?

Zhou Jinsi’s kiss was a little rushed, both biting and nibbling, and then licking as if to soothe.

In a daze, with her eyes closed, Shi Qin seemed to see a big dog with its tongue out, wagging its tail at her in a show of affection.

Zhou Jinsi was going crazy. She felt her body heating up, so hot it felt like it was about to burn. She clung to Shi Qin’s lips, refusing to let go. Poor Shi Qin was powerless to resist, and couldn’t even make a sound.

Gradually, as the kiss deepened, the two of them became more and more lost in it. This soft, warm feeling was so wonderful. After tasting it once, it was as addictive as a drug.

Shi Qin raised her hands to wrap around her, returning the kiss, not to be outdone, but was met with an even more ferocious “assault” from Zhou Jinsi.

Just as they were lost in a daze of passion, the phone in Zhou Jinsi’s pocket suddenly rang—

Not only did it startle the two of them, but the sounds from the next stall also came to an abrupt halt. Then, after a series of low whispers, they hurriedly left.

Although Shi Qin was embarrassed, she couldn’t help but laugh. Zhou Jinsi awkwardly touched her nose and quickly answered the phone.

It was from Lin Qing.

She had gone to the restroom, and it had been almost twenty minutes. The dishes were almost all served.

“Hey, I’m coming right now. I just finished… my stomach hurts… mhm, you guys eat first.”

After hanging up, Zhou Jinsi leaned against the door panel and let out a sigh of relief.

Heaven knows how panicked she had been when she saw it was Lin Qing calling. What if she had sensed something was wrong and came to the restroom to find her?

“Was that from Auntie?”

Zhou Jinsi nodded.

“She’s calling you back to eat, right?”

Shi Qin’s tone had clearly dropped a little.

Zhou Jinsi didn’t answer her. Instead, she stood up straight and faced her.

The two of them had a clear height difference. Today, to match her outfit, Zhou Jinsi had even worn thick-soled white shoes, making her a full head taller than Shi Qin.

The oppressive feeling from her presence made Shi Qin have to take a small step back, but she was pulled in by the waist by the other person.

Zhou Jinsi looked at her with a tenderness like water, just wanting to be a little closer before they parted.

Shi Qin pressed against her chest and pushed, deliberately not looking at her eyes, and said awkwardly, “What are you doing? Auntie is waiting.”

“I’m going to your place tonight.”

Zhou Jinsi’s soft words made Shi Qin’s heart skip a beat, but she still maintained her composure on the surface.

“What for?”

Zhou Jinsi pressed her forehead against hers and said softly, “Let’s have a good talk, okay?”

This voice was as soft as a feather, lightly brushing against Shi Qin’s heart. Hearing her almost-coaxing tone, her mood also improved a little.

“How long do you want to talk?”

Zhou Jinsi stared at her pink lips, which were opening and closing, as if they were seducing her.

She whispered in a hoarse voice, “All night, okay?”

Shi Qin caught the smile in her eyes, and a smile also appeared on her own lips. She bit her lip and pressed her finger on Zhou Jinsi’s thin lips.

She said lightly, “I’ll be waiting.”

.

At the dinner party, because Zhou Jinsi’s mind was full of her upcoming date, she was even less interested in Auntie Wang’s various questions.

She didn’t even take a good look at the man’s appearance, let alone the constant introductions from Lin Qing in her ear. It all went in one ear and out the other, though she would occasionally reply with a word or two.

After this meal, Lin Qing could also see that she wasn’t interested and didn’t force it.

On the way back, Lin Qing was still worrying about her. “Xiao Si, Mom knows you might be busy with work and don’t have that kind of thought yet. It’s true that there’s no rush now, but you should always take a look at the outstanding people around you. What if you hit it off?”

Faced with Lin Qing’s earnest persuasion, Zhou Jinsi said directly, “Mom, outstanding and like don’t necessarily equate.”

This was the first time Lin Qing had heard her argue back. She frowned. “You’ve never been in a relationship. How would you know about feelings? How do you know if you don’t try?”

Zhou Jinsi didn’t reply.

But in her heart, she thought, Who says I’ve never been in a relationship… she still thinks of me as too innocent.

After arriving home, Zhou Jinsi said she was going to a friend’s house for the night and turned the car around and drove away.

Lin Qing watched the car speed away, a hint of doubt in her heart.

Why do I feel like my daughter has changed a lot recently? And when did she have a friend she often has sleepovers with…

.

When Zhou Jinsi arrived, Shi Qin happened to be in the kitchen making a late-night snack. The dried noodles she had bought at the supermarket last time were still not finished.

“Are you not putting anything in these noodles?”

Zhou Jinsi walked closer and looked into the pot. It was just clear soup and water.

Shi Qin stirred the noodles with chopsticks. “The eggs are all gone. I haven’t bought any more.”

“Is there nothing left in the fridge?”

“I think… there might be some vegetables left. I’m too lazy to make them.”

Zhou Jinsi didn’t speak. She went to the fridge and opened it. Such a large space, and it was all filled with alcohol—cocktails, beer, soju… there was only a small bag of green onions left.

She sighed helplessly, took all the green onions, and planned to make some scallion oil noodles.

Seeing her busy at the stove, Shi Qin’s heart stirred again. She silently went up and hugged her from behind.

Zhou Jinsi glanced down, a smile on her lips.

“You go sit down first. I’ll bring it out when it’s done.”

Shi Qin rested her head on her shoulder and said in a muffled voice, “No, I just want to hold you.”

“Clingy,” Zhou Jinsi’s tone held an undiscovered indulgence.

“Are you saying I’m clingy?”

“No, I’m just afraid the oil will splash on you.”

Shi Qin was happy, but still hummed coquettishly and asked, “You still haven’t said, why did you come over this morning and then leave?”

Zhou Jinsi was silent for a moment. She poured the hot oil over the noodles, and a “sizzling” sound erupted, the fragrance of the scallion oil instantly stimulated.

She said in a deep voice, “I saw you talking to someone else. I didn’t want to disturb you.”

Shi Qin thought back for a moment, her eyes dimming. “She wasn’t here to see me. She just happened to be talking to me.”

Seeing Zhou Jinsi seem to turn a deaf ear, the little bit of sweetness that had just welled up dissipated again. Shi Qin asked with some disappointment, “You still don’t believe me?”

Zhou Jinsi placed the bowl on the table and handed her the chopsticks.

“I don’t not believe you…”

Since they were talking things out, she didn’t want to hide anything either.

“I just feel… your relationship with her…” Zhou Jinsi hesitated, the words on the tip of her tongue, wanting to rephrase.

“That night you were drunk, you told me… she’s your… sister?”

Shi Qin’s eating slowed. After a moment of thought, she replied, “Because I see her as a sister. To me, she’s more special than a regular friend, but that’s limited to a sisterly bond, nothing more.”

“And, the reason I was drinking that night, I don’t know who it was for.”

Zhou Jinsi didn’t understand her passive-aggressive tone and even asked very seriously, “Who was it?”

Annoyed, Shi Qin pinched her cheek. “Who do you think?”

Zhou Jinsi rubbed her sore cheek. After a long while, she finally heard her say, “I was afraid Auntie would find out… and force you to break up.”

“Our statuses still have too many disparities. This is a very realistic problem.”

Knowing the reason, Zhou Jinsi’s heart instantly softened.

She thought back to what Lin Qing had said to her in the car today and said in a low voice, “My mom won’t force me.”

“Even if one day she does… she can’t change my mind. I will fight for her to understand.”

Shi Qin glanced at the person beside her and pouted. “Are you just saying sweet things to coax me?”

Seeing that she was almost done eating, Zhou Jinsi took a napkin and helped her wipe the oil from the corner of her lips.

“No, I’m serious.”

Their gazes intertwined. They looked into each other’s eyes, and a strange emotion grew in the dark, like ants crawling on their skin, causing a tingling itch.

Their heads leaned closer and closer. Just as their lips were about to touch, Shi Qin abruptly stopped.

“Didn’t you say… you were just here to talk?”

She turned her head away, deliberately ignoring Zhou Jinsi’s initiative, and began to clear the bowls and chopsticks on the table.

“Now that we’re done talking, you can go back.”

Zhou Jinsi didn’t know why she was suddenly playing hard to get. She sat over and hugged her tightly again, burying her head in her fragrant shoulder.

“Weren’t we going to talk all night?”

“You… your period is over, right?”

Shi Qin raised an eyebrow, suppressing the smile on her lips. “What are you trying to do? Going to do something bad again?”

Zhou Jinsi moved the bowls and chopsticks to the side, her hand slipping under Shi Qin’s knees, and suddenly picked her up.

Startled, Shi Qin quickly wrapped her arms around her. “You’re forcing yourself on me.”

Zhou Jinsi carried her to the bedroom, closed the door, and turned on the small lamp.

Shi Qin looked at her with a mix of nervousness and anticipation. She saw the person slowly walk toward her, lean over, and embrace her.

Zhou Jinsi addictively breathed in her natural fragrance and said in a low voice, “I’ve been thinking…”

Shi Qin patted her head. “What have you been thinking?”

“I’ve been thinking about everything…”

Zhou Jinsi pressed her down, and just as she was about to make a move, she was pushed away again.

“I haven’t… mmph…”

Her unfinished words were swallowed by Zhou Jinsi’s kiss. But only for a moment, before she responded passionately.

Clothes were scattered, a fragrant scene playing out in an amorous entanglement. The shadows of their intertwined bodies were cast on the wall.

The lights illuminated the night’s indulgence. For a time, it was difficult to distinguish between you and me, to distinguish a winner. A different kind of tender affection flowed in the air…

.

When Shi Qin woke up, as expected, it was past mealtime again.

She glanced at the person still fast asleep beside her. The memories of last night surged up, and a heat rose in her face.

Compared to last time, this time Shi Qin was much more relaxed. But she had had her fun, and Zhou Jinsi was so tired she had almost stayed up all night. No wonder she still hadn’t woken up.

Shi Qin silently watched her sleeping face for a while. Seeing Zhou Jinsi’s phone on the headboard vibrating constantly, she picked it up and took a look.

It showed a message from Lin Qing.

The latest one was asking where she was.

Afraid that Lin Qing was worried, Shi Qin wanted to wake Zhou Jinsi up, but she was sleeping too soundly.

“Xiao Si, Auntie has been messaging you. Do you want to reply?”

“Mhm…” Zhou Jinsi replied unconsciously.

Shi Qin pushed her again. “Xiao Si?”

“Mhm… you reply for me. The password is your birthday.”

Hearing this, a sweetness rose in Shi Qin’s heart. After replying to the WeChat message for her, she curiously looked at Zhou Jinsi’s apps.

No games, mostly office software. A little blockhead.

Shi Qin then went through her photo album, wanting to see if the photos of the two of them she had sent before were still there.

One by one, the photos slid by. A satisfied smile appeared on Shi Qin’s lips.

But there was one photo that she didn’t know why it was in Zhou Jinsi’s album.

It was a group photo of her at the welfare institute.

Shi Qin’s smile instantly vanished. It felt as if something in her heart had suddenly collapsed.
